The Source of Peril nml the Means of
1'iacc.
From the Times.
Ther iirr, aa wo nnve su'ul, two parties or
iBctiorm, vhoec principles and plans are inimi
cal to tbe pence and prosperity of the country.
The dcraapoRues who press upon Congress mea
sure involving the reduction of the South to
the status of conquered territory, and who 'l
Tocate ncfrro Buflriuro on grounds that would bo
laUl to the rights and self ovprning power of
every Slate in the Union, form one, and that,
perhaps, the most prolific source of peril. Tbe
oiei'st champions of the Executive, who re
t emme nd the adoption of violent measures to
overcome Congressional opposition, and to
secure for the South unconditional admission,
make up tbe other side of the danger with
which we arc threatened. Roth oppose the
Constitutional amendment one because it falls
short of tbe extreme measures with which
many of the riulicHla would precede the
reBtoratl on ot the Union; Iho other because H
lmpwcu penalties upon prominent Rebels, and
lrustiates schemes that arc essential to the
lutiirc success of the Democratic party. Both,
moreover, contemplate the occurrence ot a con
tingency m which armed force would bo relied
upon to solve the great problems of the day,
Whether tbe radicals in Congress get rid of the
President's opposition by impeaching and de
posing bim, and then punh forward their plans
to consummation, or whether on the President's
side force be employed to resist and nullity the
action ot Congress, as certain of his Copper
head advisers propose tbe result will be the
same. Either course would entail the gravest
complications, and not improbably a renewal ol
civil war, under circumstances dillerent from
those of our late strupule.
It is tolly to ignore these contingencies ns not
likely to occur. We will not say that they are
probable, lor we have not lost laith in the
ability or the disposition of the gieat body of
tbe ptople to holu both classes ot extremists in
cheek, hut the tendency ot a great part ef the
current political discussion is imhappily in the
direction ot turmoil and tiouble. Not only is
there no approach to a healing of existiu.tr dit
lerences, but there is a con.-tant desire to mul
tiply aud aggravate ihem. Predictions and
threats are echoed defiantly. Radical and Cop
perheadboth talk ot further strife iind blood
shed as matters of course; as things which must
recur, sooner or later, colore the country settles
flown to permanent peace, aud which had
therefore better come soon. Ceneral Butler
considers thcin inevitable in 1809, and avowu
a preference lor 1807; and the extremists on
ttie other side seem to entertain a similar choice.
The chief strength of these mischief-makers,
be they radical or Democratic, lie in t indif
ference or incredulity of the people. The same
tee l ilk prevailed six years ago. Few then
attached importance to the threats ot the tire
tattrs, or realized tbe crisis which was immi
nent. Ho it is to-day. The explosive force of
the elements which aie at work is underesti
mated. The possibility of collision, ot conflict,
ol civil war, is not acknowledged. The causes
which operate in thai direction are passed over
as ol no immediate importance, aud the influ
ences that are most likely to bring it about are
penitently disregarded, llcnce ulcraism makes
more headway than would otherwise be possi
ble. The Butler radicals assume the airs of a
real power the dictator of terms to the ruling
party, and the author of a policy which it must
unhesitatingly accept. In. the same way, the
advocates ot forcible interposition by the Exe
cutive presume upon the concurrence of all
who have approved ol the eeneral scope of the
President's policy in the South. They assume
that the lrieuds of tab. immediate restoration
ol the South? will acquiesce in whatever the
President may do to socuru Southern repre
sentation in Coneri'ss; and that, as between
the President and Congress, they will sustain
the lormer eveu to the extent of revolutionary
measures.
In these circumstances the conservatism of
the country is bound to do all lhat is possible
to make Itself felt, as well against the fanaticism
which Butler preaches as against that other
ism which, under the pretense of upholding the
Constitution, would ignore the lights pertain
ing to Congress The signs ol the times are too
ominous 01 evil to admit of prolonged apathy.
to allow matters to arm, none Knows wuuner,
is, m effect, to invite toe conflict which every
pood citizen cannot but deprecate. More thau
mere censure is necessary. Effort is needed to
counteract the doings of demagogues, arid to
assert for the moderate men of the country the
controlling influence to which they are entitled.
Party dcuTouhtrations are not required tor the
purpose. Brownlow and Butler may be neu
tralized without descending to their level on
the stump. The malign counsels which endan
ger the President's position may be rendered
impotent without subserviency or intrigue.
Only let it be understood that the couutry will
rot tolerate the beginning of revolution, by
whomsoever attempted, and the extremists of
both classes will iind themselves effectually
frustrated.
And how may conservatism make itself most
decidedly felt 1 We answer, by showing that the
North is a unit in support of the Constitutional
amendment as a ba.sis.of compromise a means
of satisfying the demand for euarantees on one
hand, and on the other of reducing to reason
able limits the sacrifices to be made by the
South. Any doubt in regard to the attitude of
the North upon this point will serve to confirm
Executive opposition, and to mislead tbe South
ern States. Remove doubt prove incontesta
toly that the North, while neither harsh nor ex
acting in its requirements, is firm in its resolve
to maintain the great issues of the war and the
South will discover the futility of reliance upon
any party or person not in harmony with the
action ot the people on the subject. An en
lightened self-luterest may then be expected to
dictate the ratification ot the amendment, which
is but another method of expressing the accept
ance of the inevitable. Aud the amendment
ratified, and the bouth restored to the Union,
the danger which now menaces the peace ot the

The Dictator' Laat Card.
From the 'Jribuiie.
Mr. ihurlow weed announces, through the
Times, his adhesion to the Albany State Ticket,
headed by John T. Iloflman for Governor. This
candor is refreshing; though Mr. Weed will have
no difficulty, in case he should hereafter wish it
believed that he supported Governor Fenton, to
call a dozen witnesses who will 6toutly affirm
that sueh was the fact. For the present, how
ever, he hangs oat the Hoffman flag, aud we,
who support Fenton, are heartily glad of II.
Jlr. Weed finds fault with his present com
patriots that they do not sink their old party
name and organization, saying
"It was the occasion of especial surprise and
regiet that, eveu beiore the National Union Statu
Convention had concluded it Inborn, JuuYe Pierre
pont abould hare assumed that it whs a leniocratio
Convention, aud that its programme bad taieu et-
uea in advance or womocram.

have been with a snuare nartv platform and
ticket. Morrissey was right at Albany in telling

strongly agaiufct them; but they will not be
cr united out, us they would be tl they followed
jct, weed's coiu'eie. -fLev will noli more
votes for Hoffman than thev could have done
for any Mncolnite of '64; and Jt hey cnnld poll
Ktill more for Horatio Scvmouror Floyd Jones
than they could for Hoffman. Why is it that
political manarers will never understand that
the masses of all parties are in earnest 7
Nr. Weed sayfi: ,
"I ai vised the Philadelphia Convention, as I par
ticipated In lie deliberations, with mr eyes open,
and nnderntandiB that if the Domooracy would, by
its experience in adversity, learn that It coald only
restore Itsoll to popular confldonee by becoming
lepal, reformed Democracy would ultimately re
cover possession ol the Government."
"Tbe Democracy" must feel flattered by this
compliment; but as to Us being "reformed''
by accepting the leaderbip of Thurlow Weed,
there is room for grave doubt. Will some one
favor the rp0P,e wltl1 tDRt epigram on
the Cromwcllian chaplain, Goodenough, which
ends:
"Thev mrelv must be bad enough
Whom Goodenough can teach."
Jlr. Weed, while he condemns the designation
ot Mr. KinselH as Postmaster in Brooklyn as a
"Copperhead" appointment, which "has cost ns
thousand of votes in that city," and asserts that
such appointments not only will but should
"prove disastrous," yet supports and commends
John T. Iloflman, saying:
"fiunng the Itebellion, he was loyal to the Gov
ernment and Union."
Now, Mr. Hoffman was just as loyal as Mr.
Kin8Clli neither lees nor more. His speech at
the municipal banquet on the 22 1 of February,
1HC3: his speech at Kiug Sing; his speech in
Wall street, Just before the last Presidential
election, were all surcharged with venom against
the war for the Union as prosecuted by Mr. Lin
coln and a Republican Cougress. The only war
he lavorcd was such as WcClellnn and Buell
would have waged, and the Confederates, as
reasonable men, could not have objected to.
And we have been told that, In a meeting of tbe
Commissioners of the Sinking Fund of our city,
at one of the darkest periods of the war, he pro
posed and urged an immediate and Peremptory
sale of all the United States securities then held
by that fund (some $40(1,0(10) a measure of un
mistaknble hostility to the Government and the
war. If any man in America was a Copperhead
during our civil war, John T. Iloflman was that
m an.
Mr. Weed says he prefers such Democrats as
I loll ni mi to "the reckless, red radicalism which
rules the present Congress." This would seem
to be a new nrraigument, but it Is "the old,
old story." Mr. Weed, in the winter of lbGO-Gl,
insisted that we Republicans were all "reck
less" and "mad," in that we would not consent
to divide the Territories between r lave and free
labor on the line of 3C dec. 30 min. Aeuin,
when w e urged Mr. Lincoln to adopt the Eman
cipation policy, he thought our mildness had
become nioie intense aud dangerous. Wheu
Mr. Lincoln had fully settled into that policy,
Mr. Weed flung down his pen, aud, at a very
gloomy period ot the struej:le, resigned the
editorial charcc of the Allany Evening Journal,
assigning this reason:
"But we have fallen upon evil times. Our country
is in imminent and Immediate, danger. 1 differ
widely with my party about tlio best means or
crushing the Rebellion, that diu'orencu Is radical
and irrvconctlatile. I can neither itnprnss others
with my views, nor surrender mv own sodnu con
victions 'I he alternative ot livlne in strito with
those whom I navo esteemed, or withdrawing, is
presented. I have not hesitated in cnoosmg the
path ol peace as the path o, duty. It those who differ
with me are right, aud the couutry is carried eaiely
through iho present struggle, all will bo well and
'nobody huit.' "
Mr. Weed secmp incapable of addressine the
public, no matter on what subject, without
dragging my name before It. I hope 1 may now
dclend niyself against bis charges without being
accused of "distracting the party." Here is his
latest demonstration:
"The men w ho row lead the radical crusade
against the X'resident, attempted, durinx the war,
to divide the North. Such a division would have
destroyed both tho Government and tbe Union,
lhat calamity was averted by the firmness and
patriotism ol conservative Republicans. In 1800,
the same leaders, as hostile, to Mr. Lincoln, as they
are to President Johnson, attempted to defeat his
election by a Hank movement at Cleveland. Tholr
ca'l lor tliat Convention was nened by the prosent
editor ol tho Albanp Evening Journal. Mr. fcrooloy
wrote private letters to prominent Republicans, iu
viting their co operation in a scheme to defeat Mr.
Lincoln's election."
Surely, never was another so richly blest with
the use of "private letters" not addressed to
him nor intended lor his eye as this man Weed.
As I openly, publicly opposed the renoniination
of President Lincoln, 1 see not w hy my "private
letters" should be alluded to. And I here state
that the "letters" referred to by Mr. Weed had
no such purpose as he asserts, were not really
"private," and, in lnct, are wholly misrepre
sented by him. I recollect sicning, in common
with others, a letter to the Governors of the
Free States, utking counsel of them with regard
to tbe sur rort ot Mr. Lincoln. That letter, I
presume, is tne one reicrreo ro; ana u invneu
co-operation in no "sebeme" whntever whether
"to defeat Mr. ljincoin s election" or oiuerwise.
Mr. Weed continues as follows:
' Nor, thongh moved by other motives, wan the
course oil Mr. Greeley less disloyal. He invited
and vindicated secession, ue torn mo ooutnern
States that they had a rigut to violate tne sacrea
injunction of Washington. And when, by actine
upon his sugcestion, rebellion and war came, he
rushed round from Copperheads' to 'Rebels,' whin
ing for Ttace upon tbe best attainable terms.' Ana
now, alter Grant, bhcrmac, Fairagut, arid their as
sociates have conquered an honorable peace, Mr.
Greeley, at the head and in command of the radical
army, reopens the war, with shouts ot 'On! to
Uicbroond !' "
With rccard to mv "rushing round from
Copperheads to Rebels, whining lor peace," Mr.
weed simply iiep, as iuu urn t umiu iim iuut:
persisted in doing with regard to me. I never
in mv lite 60ugnt or approacneu any copper
head or Rebel on the subject of peace, in any
manner whatever. The very little l ever had to
say to either on the subject was always in an
swer to their suggestions. Ana i never even
responded to any overture lroin Rebels on
the subject, save when I was requested and in
eflect commanded to ao so dv tue rresiueut oi
the United States; and I obeyed him in the
premises with profound reluctance. I am not
ignorant of the law regarding unauthorized
negotiations with public enemies.
The charge that I "invited Secession," is a
more plausible falsehood. I did invite tbe con
spirators for disualon to submit their alleged
grievances and their proposed remedy to a tree.
BearcninK mscussiou owure mm a iair, uuuweu
vote of the Southern pepple, pledging myself to
abide their verdict. That the disuuionhits
would have been voted down, I no more doubt
than I do my own existence. They were
beaten, as it was, in the aggregate vote of the
South that winter, so tar as it can be ascertained;
they would have been crushed had the discus
sion been thorough, the vote fairly polled, and
the exasperating menace ot "coercion" with
drawn. Let those who will condemn the Rebel
lion as the act of tho Southern people I exe
crate it as the result of a conspiracy of the lew
acuinst the many: and I upheld the war for the
Union, not to sublugate but to liberate my coun
try men livina south of the Potomac aud Ohio.
Let those who can stigmatize Rebels and Dis-
unionises us tue-u; i giory that my ancestors
were Rebels against the British crown and
aided to dismember the British empire, 'i re
sisted the slaveholders' Rebellion in defease of
not iu hostility to the great truth, fundamental'
to reuubneun iroeoom, tuat "covernmo,a
derive their iust power from the consent ot n.A
governed:'' I warn those who are now seeking
what they term a conservative restoration of the
Unien, that a republic caunot bo pinned
together by bayonets that it must rest on and
be" upheld by the affections of its people that,
it the loyal blacks of the South shall not be
fully enfranchised, there will 6oon beanoil.er
outbreak of the Rebel spirit now smouldering
there, even more desperate and formidable than
that which has cost tbe country such lakps ot
blood and such mountains of treasure. Count
the four millions of blacks ciphers, and the Re
bellion has to-day, what It had not iu the win
ter of li-UO-Gl, a decided preponderance at the
South; and that preponderance will soin
bloodily manifest Itself. Then is no safetv, no
renl pence, but in universal justice and iiii oar

Jllota of th Politicians.
From the Ileraid.
A little over a year airo the army of Lee, ex
hausted by the bull dog tenacity of General
Grant, who had hung at its throat from the
Wilderness down to the gates ot Richmond,
gave np the fight and surrendered. There was
rejoicing all oyer tho country; tor the people
pined for peace and expected to enjoy its bless
ings. In the loyal States the exultation was
universal, because with peace came tbe restora
tion of the Union and the rc-cstabiiehmcnt of
the Government in all 1(8 strength. Although
the call of defeat may at lirst have embittered
the cup to those who hBd so recently been our
enemies, vet even they roon came to reeard
with heartfelt satisfaction the cessation of a war
that had brought thcin nothing out siitfering
and destruction, and were tha.ikiul that it was
at an end. If a shadow darkened the sky it
arose only from the fog of those men's minds
who failed to appreciate the American character
and predicted that th released soldiery would
waneler about the country murdering and rob
bing and burning and preying upon the peace
able citizens generally. Such clouds were
speedily dispelled when the sturdy men of war
betook themselves to the workbench and the
plough, and quietly resumed the employments
they had quitted lor the tent and the held.
The nations ot Kuri pe looked on in wonder.
They were not prepared for tho grand spectacle
of two mighty armies disbanding, as it were, by
magic, and becoming at once absorbed in a
peaceable ana producing population. They saw
with amazement a government great enough to
extend a generous forgiveness to States that had
for four jears watred against it a war ot rebel
lion, and a system perfect enough to resume its
working harmoniously just as soon as such a
conflict ceased. The country was at peace; and
this fact, no less wonderful to them than the
immensity of the resources we had developed
during the war, gave us a credit in Europe
ereuicr than anv we had previously enjoyed.
But it was not long before the politicians set
to work to disturb the waters of the I'ool of
Silonm, through the virtues of which the eyes
of the nation were receiving licht. Peace was
no peace to them unless it could be rendered
subservient to their own advancement. They
must make some capital out of it for their party
or personal purposes bclore they could regard
it as a blessing. The cessation of hostilities in
the Held was the signal lor the political guerillas
to enter upon a campaign ot their own. They
commenced their raids in Congress by the use
ot violent aud unbecoming language. In the
Houtc of Representatives the President of tbe
United States was alluded to as "the man at the
other curt of the avenue;" and In the Senate the
clussic Sumner, in tue luuguag" or the KitciieD,
denounced him as a "whitewasher." By degrees
the license of the tongue became more un
bounded, and the President was alluded to as a
"traitor" and one who had "legalized assassina
tion." This desecration ol diemty and pro
priety continued until it infected the President
himself: and for the past two mouths the
huiL,iliatine spectacle has been presented of the
executive and leeLdative branches of the Gov
ernment scolding each other and calling each
other names, like two angry drabs.
Outside ot Congress the political stump
speakers on borh sides have been yet more
riotous and violent. The Butlers and Brown
lows and Hanailtons on one tide, and the Shar
ker's, Dawi-ons, and Mouroes on the other, have
done their best to excite the prejudices and
psssions ot the people, and to destroy the
blessings of peace. One set of men in the "South
and another in tbe East have used their breath
unceasingly to tan the smouldering embers of
fanaticism and sectionalism once more into a
flame. On one side we are told that Conercss is
to be forcibly entered by the Southern members
and (he organization carried at the noint of the
bayonet. On the other we are promised the
impeachment ot tne fresieknt as soon as Gon-
grcss reassembles. Bo'h schemes are the mere
ravings of brawling politicians. The South will
ciuioilv re-enter Coucress under the Constitu
tional amendment, if the States are sensible
enouch to secure those terms of readmlssion.
and Butler could not get more than fifty or sixty
votes in the House for his threatened impeach
ment. The balance ot the Xtepresentatives are
quiet and peaceable men, who have already
shown their inclination and their nower to
check the revolutionary power of Thad. Stevens
und olhor impracticable radicals, and they will
do no net in which the country will refuse to
sustain them.
But, baseless ns are these threats, tboy are not
without mischief. Their eflect is seen in the
riots in Memthis. the lruits ol the violence ot
Southern politicians; in the murderous all'air
in tin Orleans, the result of the incendiary
course of political agitators of both sides; iu the
clubbings, aud shootings and guttinps in Phila
delphia ana otner places, an me worn wi mere
dribblina politicians: of rerrefentatives of cor
rupt 'Tings'' that are in aantrer oi being oroicen
up; of men who huug on the outskirts and verge
of parties, auu by their vioteuce endeavor to
attract attention, in the lmpc of getting some
paltry office it the side they espouse happens to
come out uppermost, auu yui sucu pimsiies aa
these have it in their power to cloud over all
the bright visions of peace that dawned upon us
when the tempest of war passed away ; and for
their acts thirty millions of quiet, peaceable
citizens are called upon to sutler in their repu
tation nbroad and in their self-resne-ct at home.
The course ot these violent and unscrupulous
aeitatorsof both politieal parties is jeopardizing
all the fruits ot victory ami an the blessings
secured by peace: and if the quiet, conservative
strength of tbe country does not discounte
nance and check them, we shall soon lose all
the character we have established abroad, and
bring new dangers aud suflermea upon our
selves at nonie.
