The Republican Party In the South.
FVm A Watlon. . '.'' .' i
Registration under military control has
tddcd one more to the hundred proofs of the
Itter failure of "conservative" prophecies
fonrerning the freed mon of the South. Not
jrithstanding all dumonstraUona to the con
trary in spite of the clearest erldenoe that
jcience could draw from shlua, hair, and cuti
cle, or wisdom draw from long experience,
Whip in hand, on cotton plantations it is now
admitted that the negro can fight, will work,
and is both capable of receiving education and
eager for it. Almost the only predictions of
"those who knew the negro best" which have
jiot long since been so thoroughly overthrown
ly facts as to be ridiculous are the assertions
(1) that the mass of the freedmen care nothing
about tbe right of suffrage, and (2) that ia
exercising that right they will be entirely con
trolled by their old masters. The war of
jaccs, which Mr. Johnson dwelt upon with so
jnuch emphasis as certain to result from the
admission of negroes to vote, has long been a
public- jest. Wade Hampton made it absurd
Jn a siDgle day.
There were certainly plausible grounds for
"believing that the freedmen would be indiffe-
jent to the right of su 11 rage. Never having
g i
1 '
Lad the privilege, and having been traine
from time immemorial to seek for happiness
only in sensual indulgences, to which such a
franchise could not contribute, it dd not
8ecm unlikely, from that point of view, that
they would be indifferent to it. But, on the
other hand, those who believed in the natural
capacity of the colored race for improvement
Insisted that they had learned or would rapidly
learn the value of politioal rights, and would
Hot fail to exeroise them. The result of
the registration thus far in every Southern
ptate has Justified the latter view. In every
Btate and, as far as we know, in every county,
jio ! matter how secluded from Northern in
fluences, a far larger proportion of ther esldent
colored voters have registered than of whites.
In Virginia the colored electors are in a large
majority on the roll, although the whites, if
all registered, would outnumber them by
nearly 40,000. Iu Louisiana, where the num
fcers of the two races are nearly equal, the
Colored voters on the register number twioe as
many as the white. Tue case is much the
Same in Georgia, Alabama, and, indeed,
everywhere. The freedmen have, in every
place where they heve been properly pro
tected from intimidation, manifested an eager
ness to be enrolled for which there is no pre-,
cedent among white people North or South.
The only prediction that remains to be dis
proved is, that the freedmen will vote under
the dictation of their former masters. It is
abundantly proved that this will not be the
case in large cities, and the registration of such
Vast numbers of the plantation negroes, con
trary to the well-known wishes of their masters,
affords strong evidence that they too will vote
independently of local influences. Indeed, no
reasonable man who has watched the course
of affairs in the South can doubt that almost
the entire body of the newly enfranchised race
desire ' to cast their votes for men who are
Leartily in sympathy with the party and the
policy winch secured their freedom. The only
xeal danger lies in the want of organization
and information among the colored people,
tvhioh leaves them open to imposition alike
from secret enemies and fiom indiscreet aud
over-zealous friends.
A serious duty is devolved npon the Repub
licans of the North. They have the best or
ganization ever known in the political history
of this country, abundant wealth, and every
facility for conducting political campaigns.
They have now an opportunity to extend
the same organization over the entire Union,
and thus to secure the perpetuity of the
nation even more effectually than has been
done by war. They cannot with any wis
dom or safety leave their Southern allies to
carry on the work alone. Where all are inex
perienced, the most presumptuous, and there
fore the most unfit, are likely to rush to the
telm, and guide a movement with whioh they
ardently sympathize, but the perils of which
they do not comprehend. There will be dis
tracting quarrels for leadership, in whioh the
power of the majority may be lost. Dema
gogues will raise false issues by the use of
enticing programmes which can never be car
ried out. The large number of Southern white
men who are now coming into the Republican
party may be driven oil. by the jealousy of
petty leaders anxious for office, and parties be
thus divided Btrictly upon color a result
greatly to be deprecated, and whioh may, by
a little prudence, be entirely avoided.
We do not wish that the course of Southern
politics should be absolutely dictated by
Nerthern men; but it is well known that judi
cious Northerners have the confidence of all
in the South who are disposed to act with the
.ivepuunoau party, and can reconcile conflict
ing interests move completely than any South
ern man cm do. A striking example of this
lias recently been given in Virgiuia, where the
presence of a few gentlemen from the North
resulted in healing a bitter feud in the party,
and in starting a movement which is now
spreading over the whole Statu, promising to
Lring within the Republican rank almost
every man who was sincerely for the Union
Jefore the late war.
The aid which the North can and ought to
give will consist in giving money to defray
necessary political expenses, in sending out
publio speakers, who should be men to inte
rest large audiences, and of moderate lan
guage, free from passion and revengeful feel
ings, in supplying sound advi(i who can
Jiarmouize internal difficulties Tiid suggest
plans of organization, and in distributing
nnlitieal tracts or papers, which should be
fiimnle enough for children to read to their
T,nrnta. short. Dlain. and to the point. Con
gressioual speeches are not of much value for
hia mimosa. Thev are calculated for Northern
latitudes. Their tone is not often likely to
attract Southern whites, and they are not
in,r.iA noiif?h for the colored people, who
depend almost entirely upon their children for
reading matter.

From the TYibune.
' The ever-soaring and gorgeous bird of our
country, whose beak according to the beat
authorities sips the tepid waters of the Oulf,
while his venerable tail flaps against the North
Tole, begins to show impatience. He would
perch upon the tops ot Chimborazo. He would
proudly rest upon the Cordilleras. lie would
make his eyrie in the Halls of the Monte
xuinas. Maximilian is in his grave the mer
ciful Juarez is supreme. For six days there
has not been a revolution, unless we call
Santa Anna one. ThU venerable old pre
tender hobbles about Campeachy claiming to
be the mesFenger of our bird the agent of Mr.
Seward in the work of territorial extension.
He is a venerable falsifier. Santa Anna is, of
course, a man after Mr. Seward's own heart,
and nothing 14 impossible iu our diplomacy
after the exploits of McCracken and McUinnis,
Otterburg or Campbell. But Mr. Seward dis
owns Santa Anna, aud we believe him. The
bird is on the wing to Mexico, but Santa Anna
is not the falconer.
It matters little who is. The bird ia on the
wing. We are going to Mexico. There is
something so enthusiastic in the prospect that
for once w e forego all notions of economy aud
peace, and join in the cry "On to Mexico I"
We are not among the " Maxim alian A venge rs. '
We demand Mexico upon higher grounds.
There is everything about that country to
enchant us. We shall be away 1 from the
baleful influence of New England. There are
no schools to teach the children radical
notions. There are inspiring associations.
There the chivalrous Cortes planted the cross,
and the patient Montezuma slept upon his bed
of roses. There are no vulgar laws of pro
perty. If creditors press, the honost yeoman
has merely to ride down, the road and stop the
first diligence. If the taxes are not paid, the
rulers have only to send a sergeant's guard
to the leading merchants and say that the
money must be produced. This plan is so
simple and effective that we marvel our Com
mon Council have not tried it. Mr. Justice
Barnard's inaudamus is nothing to be com
pared with it. If American liberty i3 anarchy
plus a constable, Mexicau liberty is anarchy
plus a sergeant's guard. Mexico has shown
us how to suppress a rebellion, and so we say,
"On to Mexico t"
We have long been spoiling for an adven
turea genuine old-fashioned enterprise. Now
we have one. We shall have the good times
of Lopez and William Walker. While on the
way we may pick up Cuba and the West India
Islands. Jamaica would be a very jewel in
our crown. Iu Jamaica a rebellion was sup
pressed even more beautifully than it would
have been by Major-General Jack Logan, and
in saying this we' feel that ' the force of lan
guage can go no further. , There is Ilayti
with its semi-monthly revolutions and the
Central American States, where the fevers
breed, and the beautiful snakes in green and
gold caper over the fertile haciendas, and wel
come the hardy pioneer. We want land so
badly. We want a chance to spend our money,
and increase our national debt. We want a
chance to kill somebody. Our illustrious bird
is so cribbed that he cannot flap his wings. Iu
our narrow domains he is scarcely more than
a menagerie bald-head or a domestic hen. We
want a chance for our young men to gain
glory. Mr. Wilkes, with his prize-fightera and
rumsellers, has been promising ns a revolution
at home, but it don't come. Mr. Wilkes riding
down Broadway, accompanied by Judge Car
dozo and the Benicia Boy, followed by his army
of rumsellers, the streets lined with au ad
miring crowd of children whose fathers are in
the almshouse and State Prison, of wives who
are worse than widows, of mothers whose sons
come reeling nightly to their happy homes,
might comfort us but he don't light, and for
a fight we are in despair. Let BUch trilling
cease. Let us "On to Mexico t"
We have spoken of the snakes, and the
fevers, and the great amonnt of land. These
are trivial attractions. Think of the gloryl
We believe glory is cheaper to-day in Mexioo
than in any other country, except Abyssinia.
Think of the peerless fame of Juan Jose Baz,
whose troops, at last accounts, were steadily
driving the small army of nuns. Think of
the matchless valor of Escobedo, who has
revolutionized modern warfare, and put our
own Grant in the shade, by showing that it is
far easier to buy a city than to take it. We I
wonder that resolutions of thanks have not
been introduced into Congress. . Think of
the opportunities of dying a soldier's
death. It is safe to say that there are more
chances of a man's meeting a glorious doom iu
Mexico to-day than in any other part of the
world. If he is captured or purchased by
E.-cobedo, he is certain' to be shot. If he is
triumphant, he will, in time, be assassinated
or executed by his rival. With revolutions
once a week, he has fitty-two chances a year
of falling before a sergeant's guard, and leav
ing an immortal name. America affords no
such chance. The Whisky Rebellion and the
Indian war are all that is left us. The leaders
of the one cannot, the leaders of the other will
not, light. Labor is base, thieving dangerous,
and unsteady m prout. XNoiuing remains Din
Mexico. Let us tail into line and march to the
llalls of the Montezumas 1

From the Herald.
Mr. Henderson informed us recently in the
Senate that our Indian war was now costing
about one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
per day, and that if it lasts all summer it will
probably cost one hundred million dollars. We
can go into a little surer calculation than that of
Mr. Henderson. There are now eleven promi
nent tribes iu open hostility to the Govern
ment. These number seventy-eight thousand
among whom there are about sixteen thousand,
warriors, none of whom have graduated at
either a Government or nrivate military insti
tute. They occupy the whole vast centre of
isorth America, aud range from Mexioo to the
British American nonsessions. There was
once a State called Florida, whioh contained
a Mr. Dowlegs and live hundred redskins.
inree siues oi the little neninsula were
surrounded by water. It cost the United
Mates forty millions of dollars to drive Mr.
Bowlegs irom his farm. Th -nrrthlem. then.
in, if it cost forty millions o drive Mr. Bow
legs and livo hundred men out of a corner by
United States taotios, what will it noni t drive
sixteen thousand devils into a ooruer by the
same tactics ? Obviously far more thau the
proportion indicates, which is one thousaud
two hundred and eighty million dollars a
small amount, which, iu the present reckless
ness of CongWRs in disposing of the pnbllo
funno, is of little moment; and, the Indians
once cornered, We can have the pleasure ot :
wbipj'iug them out again at the same price.
Lively work for the regular army; and we
doubt If, with the magnitude of the Job, Gene
ral Sherman will be able to make his pilgrim
age to Mecoa this year.
Troops, Indian agents, the War Department
pulling against the Indian Bureau, contractors,
and twelve hundred and eighty million dollars,
are the necessities for an Indian turmoil. Give
General Sherman the management of all these
elements, and he will soon ' destroy Indian
prestige, and cause them to respect the troops
under his command. Money enough; that U
all that is required money I .!.. -i
Indian tactics against the regular army I
What impudence 1 These calioo clad, nimble
footed, light-armed, enduring BonB of the
forest daring to make war ou ns I Mounted,
too, as they are, on hardy little horses, which
can march sixty miles per day for days
together t The boldness of these miserable
savages in throwing down the gauntlet to
modern troops, armed with heavy Springfield
muskets, carrying on their shoulders enor
mous knapsacks, well filled with everything
that civilization can give to make a soldier
contented 1 The cavalry carrying a heavy
man, a weighty saddle, and all that at the end
of an eighteen, mile march can make a
horse hungry; splendid baggage train, with
home comforts, for man and beast) All this
in command of our brass-decorated gentlemen,
who have been well educated by the nation in
whatever can make the system of modern war
fare a terror to the savage. Indian tactics
against this I It is absurd. Let us support
the efforts of General Sherman, who is destined
to win new laurels on the great Indian plains.
Give him money and men; these are all that
he requires; he will soon finish with the Indian
pest.
There is a certain idea existing that those
Territories and States that are ou our Indian
border cau raise troops of a peculiar class,
who are fitted to fight Indians after the Indian
fashion. Several of the Governors of those
districts have made application for the privi
lege of raising volunteer forces, which they
foolishly believe can close up the Indian
troubles. They, full of false arguments, are
bold enotigh to say that men who have wrongs
to avenge, and who are willing to fiirht as Iu-
dians fight, are better capable of entering upon
and carrying forward an eltective campaign
than the regular troops that represent the
dignity of the nationi A proper rebuke has
already been given to them by incorporating
the volunteer force of frontiersmen into the
regular force, and placing regular officers over
them to direct their crude movements. There
is no doubt that General Sherman has done
well in this case, and will thus allay many of
the jealousies which might ari?e were any
such desultory body to show itself capable of
fighting Indians as some people think they
should be fought. Let us, by all means, sup-
ftort General Sherman; he will carry on our
ndian war as it should be carried on; his swift
troopers will soon restore peace on the Plains.
All that is required is money; that will bring
everything iu its train, and we shall make as
glorious as exit from the Indian war as we
have made from the war of the Rebellion.
Tb Democratic Party Its Issues and
lis Intuit. i '
From the Time.
, The Democratic journals protest that the
party they serve is not dead. They predict
not only its continued existence, but its return
to power. And in corroboration of their state
ments they point to the numerical strength of
the Democratic minorities in New York and
other States which at present have Republican
governments.
Now, it is quite true that in respeot of the
numbers that sustain its candidates, the Demo
cratic party is still a powerful organization.
It were idle to decry the force of a party which
iu more than one State came near success, and
which in many wages a vigorous, though, for
the time, a hopeless fight. The mere vitality
of a party, however, is not an assurance of
ultimate victory, nor is the cohesive quality
of a strong minority a reason for believing that
it will soon grow into the majority. For grow
ng power Implies an active sympathy with
publio opinion an appreciction of the tend
encies of contemporary thought, and an ability
to adapt itself to these as to the sources of
coming victory. It is because the Democratic
party lacks these characteristics that, with all
its numbers, it may still be described as a dead
party a party identified with lifeless issues,
rallying for battle uuder the cries of a bygone
era, and persistently ignoring events whioh
have changed the whole aspect of our national
life.
The platforms adopted by the various Con
ventions of the Democracy are the platforms
of a party which has no claim upon the future.
All its sympathies, all its affiliations, all its
pretensions are connected with the past. Its
only hope is that the country will discard the
war and its lessons, blot out of history the
trials and triumphs of the last six years, and
go back to the questions of the Breckiuridge
and Douglas campaign. The Constitution is
indeed the subject of much resolving on these
occasions. Take it at its own valuation, and
the Democracy might be considered the party
Of the Constitution, if the frequent use ot the
word were the only criterion of attachment. A
little examination destroys the illusion, aud
reveals the fact that the Constitution by which
the Democratic Couventionists swear is the
Constitution according to Taney. Slavery,
Dred Scott decisions, and States rights, as
Calheun expounded them, are essential fea
tures of Democratic coustitutioualism. The
war, in the opinion of the same party, was un
constitutional from beginning to end.
The means by which the war was carried to
a successful termination were in Democratic)
eyes grossly unconstitutional. When, there
fore, successive Conventions profess to make
the Constitution their anchor, and at the same
time exclude from view the achievements and
consequences of the war, it is not unfair to
assume that the party concerned is indifferent
to the great interests for which Union men
have contended, and that the "Constitution"
is a cry used to conceal hostility to the only
conditions on which the peace and prosperity
of the Union may be restored. The inference
is rendered yet more reasonable and just by
the pertinacity with which the Democratic
party oppose aud assail all measures of recon
struction, imposing conditions by way of
guaranteeing the supremacy of the Union sen
timent. The party which pretends to cham
pion the Constitution would bring back the
Southern States just as they were, with Reikis
rampant aud the freedmen at the mercy of a
cruel and arrogant class.
The leading orators of the party do not even
pretend to accept as settled the lessons and
results of the war. Mr. Pendleton, a former
nominee for the Vice-1'resldeucy, in his recent
speech at St. l'aul, makes no attempt to con
ceal a purpose to disturb and, if possible, re
verse the work of Congress in the matter of
reconstruction. As he states the case, the war
: i
has finally dispone.! of nothing, finally settled
'""""h- ", lias been done il
bia,tMPporary. The mission of the bemot
cracy, b Mr. 1 endleton puts it, i to undo the
woikof the Lwiou pi.ity, and restore to the
fo.tt.pr RelH-l element of the South the control
of which t has been diverted. He distinctlv
de. lares that his party will ot recognize the
validity of measures carried, while Southern
Senators and Representatives' are excluded
Irom Congress, but will struggle to restore the
Union as it was before the war. If hi word
have any meaning, they are an intimation to
c-otitbern Rebels and malcontents that the
Noi them Democratic organization is on their
side, and will help them when It cau. In
some respects, then, Mr. Pendleton is worss
than Vallandigbam. The latter is engaged in
a vain effoit to prove that he is not so black
s be has been painted, while Mr. Pendleton
deliberately preaches rank Copperheadisin as
the everlasting gospel of the Democratic party.
Nor does he preach to unwilling hearers. It
might be supposed that the State of Minnesota,
W hose every artery isfilled with youthful blood,
and whose glory lies hidden in the future.
Would cherish little liking foracreed composed
altogether of idle reuiembranoes or the past
liven Democracy might be expected to realize
the buoyancy ,of the climate and to aspire to life
and usefulness. It is not so, however. The
rotten plank, which serve the party in the Kast
are made to do service in the far-otl West. Mr,
Pendleton's apologies for disloyalty and dis
union are cheered to the echo. Ana a name
less sheet which promulgated the filthiest Cop
peiheadism during the war, and to this day
exults in the assassination of Mr. Lincoln, is
accepted and circulated as a campaign docu
ment. Can a party whioh thus proclaims its Inera
dicable hostility to the cherished purposes of
all Union men have any prospect of regaining
power f Can a party which deliberately plants
itself on the side of the enemies of the Union,
denounces guarantees whioh have been ex
acted for its safety, and pledges itself to dis
pute the binding efficacy of what has been
achieved can such a party hope for the suo
cess which is contingent upon the acquisition
of support from Republican ranks f On the
contrary, is it not morally certain that a party
whose sole capital is derived from the extin
guished issues must gradually be shorn of the
Strength it possesses f
i Even in the simplest matters the blind ob
stinacy of the party management is apparent.
The State Convention in session at Albany
affords an illustration. The suffrage question
comes up there ior revision and adjustment.
In view of the fact that impartial suffrage is
now to all intents and purposes a national
" principle, adopted by the South under duress,
and made a condition of territorial admission
to the privileges of Statehood, there would
seem to be no reason for delaying its applica
tion in New York. So far as the South
is concerned, not only impartial but
universal suffrage is an accomplished fact,
with no likelihood of reversal. Its extension
to this State involves no disturbance of
the voting forces, and no concession
that should not follow the acknowledgment of
the civil equality of the races. But the Demo
cratic delegates cling to their old prejudices,
and insist that New York shall withhold what
Virginia and South Carolina are about to
grant. Universal suffrage for whites, a pro
perty qualification for blacks, is the sum of
the philosophy to which the New York Demo
crats have i attained. They give no sign of
progress no token of emancipation from the
prejudices of days , before the war. , A party
which, in small things and great, is incapable
of comprehending the teachings of the time, or
of rising above the low level of the past, cau
have no lasting hold upon the country. Its
issues are as dull as the rattle of dead men's
bones, and its chances iu the future are worse
than those of to-day.
