TIic Field and the Champions.
Fromthe Petersburg (Fa.) Index.
The Index hu opposed from the first the
childish timidity w tit oh would pat the
gag npon all the eloquent genius of the Sooth
and hash up the utternne of the truth by
thooe lips which are most able to proolatm it.
If any man has anything to say why this
nation shall not submit to the embraoe of a
foul despotism, let him now speak.
In one month it may be too late. We en
dorse every word of the Louisville Journal
When it says: .
"We are rich in fit champions, though one
champion differeth from another champion ia
fitness; and, next in fitness to our conserva
tive Republican champions, we do not hesitate
to place those at whom the radioala, with un
erring instinct, have set up their loudest
howls. We mean the ex-Confederates. In
dealiDg with the ex-Confederate element of the
, canvass, our friends at the North, it appears
to us, have not ehown their usual sagacity.
They have seemed to regard that element as
eomething to be kept in the background to
Le screened rather than displayed; when in
reality, if judiciously managed, it is the great
est as well as the proude&t element of our
strength."
Tor in this conflict what is the avowed end
of both parties f It is, we need not say, the
pacification of the South; the radicals propos
ing to pacify the South by trampling upon the
rights of her people and the Constitution
together, and the. Democrats proposing to
pacify her by respeotiDg the Constitution and
the lights of her people under it. Now, in
View of these conflicting propositions, where
does the South herself stand f She stands as
a unit with the Democratio party. She in
good faith aocepts the Constitution as the terms
of peace. The unconstitutional, oppressive,
ana degrading terms of the radical party she
at the same time spurns. It is thus made
manifest that '.the avowed end of both parties
the radical party cannot aoonmplish aud that
the Democratic party can. It is demonstrated
that the Democratio party can give us peace
and that the radical party cannot. This fact is
the capital fact of the canvass. Its realization
Iy the Northern people would alone extinguish
the last hope of the radioals.
And to make the Northern people realize it,
"who are so fit as the representative men of the
South f Nobody, it seems elear to us; and if
those men, instead of having been left to ad
dress their fellow-sufferers at home, where the
liarrowing details of the situation are but too
familiar, and the temptation to intemperate
language is all but irresistible, had been called
to the North, and appointed to lay before the
Northern people the true sitnation'of the South
and the true sentiments of her people, the
radioals, we verily believe, would now be
fowling at Southern oratory out of the other
Side of their mouths. We have no shadow of
doubt of it. The truth is, the Northern people
could not meet the representative men of the
South face to face, and learn from their lips
not only the tale of Southern woe and desola
tion, but the assurance of Southern allegiance,
, and still credit the radioal calumnies. They
Would thoroughly realize the calumniousness
of the whole brood. And they would repu
diate alike the calumnies and the calum
niators. In neglecting to call to the North the repre
sentative men of the South, therefore, we feel
that our Northern friends have committed a
grave mistake. They have shrunk from a
masterly expedient as if It were big with ruin.
But it is not yet too late to correct the mis
lake. We hope that it will be promptly cor
rected. We commend its prompt correction
to the attention of the Democratic State Com
mittees of Ohio aud Indiana and Pennsylvania.
Let our ex-Confederate champions join our
conservative Republican champions in the
Held of conflict, and fight with them side by
Bide. Let Wade Hampton, for example, speak
In Pennsylvania with Edgar Cowan; let
General Gordon speak in Indiana with Senator
Doolittle; and let 13. II . Hill speak in Ohio
With James Dixon. It would not merely dis
arm the radicals, but disable them. Our true
polioy is, and has been, to manifest the cou
rage of our opinions. Let us take the bull by
the horns, and he cannot be made to gore us.
Let us firmly grasp the nettle in our hands,
and it will not sting us.
The Final Stage.
Prom the If. T. Timet.
The war, says General MoClellan, "was only
the first epoch in the history ot the struggle
In wbioh we have been so long engaged."
Why did the General, in his farewell to De
mocracy, fail to complete the statement ? He
does not confound the close of the war with
the close of the contest for supremacy. Armed
hostilities were but "the first epoch," the
final result remains to be reaobed; and he evi
dently comprehends at a glanoe the influences
that are at work to neutraliza the gains ot vic
torious loyalty. The disgust excited by the
condemnation of the war as a failure is inten
sified by the proposal of the same party to
turn over the Government to Rebels, and to
undo the work of the Union armies. It is not
Surprising that the General deolined to partici
pate in proceedings designed to glorify a cause
championed by the Rebel leaders, or that he
Seized the oocasion to announoe his retirement
from the complications of party politics, lie
is only one of thousands of Democrats whom
the present attitude of the party has perma
nently alienated.
The prime blander of Mr. Seymour's man
agers is in the dependence they have placed
upon the gullibility ot the people. They
assumed that all they had to do was to shout
"Constitution" incessantly, and to represent
themselves as its advooates and defenders.
They rejected Hood's doctrine, that "a daw is
sot a religious bird because it cries 'caw'
from a church steeple," and really seemed
to imagine that under the pretense of up
holding the Constitution they might with
impunity play into the hands of the Southern
malcontents. On this presumption they
acted in constructing the platform and mak
ing the nominations. Bat the pretense
Las not deceived anybody. In judging be
tween the parties, the people estimate by
things, not by words. Aud when it was
found that, under the plea of guarding the
Constitution and the Union, the Democrats
Were preparing to consign both to the treacher
ous keeping ol men who fought four years for
their destruction, the decision in favor of
Grant was rendered in advance. On another
tiasia, there might have been room for a keen
conflict. The details of policy would have
afforded materials for debate, aud would have
allowed differences of opinion among men
substantially agreed on the general principles
of covernment. But the Democratio choloe
precluded argument and ended all excuse for
doubt. It was no longer a struggle between
parties in either of whose hands the peaoe of
the country would be safe; but a struggle be
tween those who saved the Union and those
who would renew the assault upon it with a
certainty of producing civil war. from that
moment the election of Grant was assured, the
only open question being as to the extent to I
wbioh Democratio frauds ia the Middle States I
and Democratio outrages in the Southern
States may aueot his majority.
i
Armj Interference In the Flections.
frofn the National Intelligencer.
Aimy officers have as much right as other
men to opinions in politics, and to the expres
sion of them in a manner not inconsistent with
the obvious proprieties of their position and
the discharge of its duties. General SohoQeld
is no t-xception to the rale; but he and Uene
ral Sherman, and the very few others of the
old army who choose to forget the warfare of
radicals upon its beat soldiers, cannot profess
non-interference in the elections, and yet
write letters for the radical cause and candi
dates, and be more or less with the latter in
their electioneering tours, as has buea Gene
ral Sherman with Grant.
General S'ckles, an officer of the regular
army, has been permitted by General Grant,
while aoting as Secretary of War, and also by
General Schofield, to do nothing else but make
electioneering speeches wherever elections
have taken place. His expenses, if not muoh
more, have been paid by the radical party.
There are, perhaps, others of the party of
lesser note that have been playing the same
game. We say this for the benefit of the New
York Tribune, which complained recently of
General Gordon Granger for a solitary remark
or two of his, on the oocasion of a serenade, in
favor of Seymour and Blair. The finest spirits
of the old army, who have written letters in
the same direotion, have justification for their
course, if any were needed, in the action of
their pro tempore superior, General Sohofleld,
aotiDg Secretaryof War. We now refer to his
letter for its remarkable recognition of con
servatism where no conservatism exists.
He must have optics sbarp, I ween,
To bee what is not to be seen."
Intelligent -men will smile at the utter in
consistency of General Schofield's letter, in
the respect of its supporting Grant and appro
ving the Chicago platform, but will have hope,
should the radical party succeed, for the
cropping out of the sort of conservatism, under
General Grant's auspices, that ia indicated in
the following passage:
"I have not been without serious apprehen
sions that, by forcing upon the couutry extreme
radical theories, the 8. ability of the U veru.

Rebel Outrages
Prom the iV. T. Tribune.
Bach day's record of the bloodshed at the
South grows longer and loDger. Yesterday
morning we printed details of the murders iu
the Parish of St. Landry, Louisiana, showing a
wholesale slaughter of negroes aud a determi
nation to drive every white Unionist from
Opeloueas; the shocking story of the murder
of a bridegroom and serious wounding of a
bride at her parents' house, in the presence
of her friends, and iu the very midst of the
nuptial ceremony; and the killing of several
negro convicts on the line of the Central Vir
ginia Railroad. The Rebel uprising at the
fcouth grows day by day more bloody and
alarming. In the turbulence they have
aroused, it is not always possible to see who
are the parties immediately at fault. But we
know who fanned this fpirit into its present
lurid flame. We know who resolved in Tam
many Hall that the Reconstruction acts are
unconstitutional, revolutionary, null, and
void. We know who declared that we must
have a President who will exeoute the will of
the people by trampling into the dust the
usurpations of Congress known as the Recon
struction acts that we must compel the army
to undo its usurpations at the South and dis
perse the carpet-bag State Governments.
Freemen of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana i
show the South next Tuesday that the vast
majority at the North do not approve these
revolutionary councils, and are horrified at
their murderous results.
Tarty FatrlolisiH.
Prom tht iV. T. Tribune.
The party which proves its patriotism by
striving to depreciate the credit of its Govern
ment is as unfortunate in the time as in the
manner of its attack. In the midst of the
Democratio rejoioings over the feclaiation of
an irresponsible but pretentious manufacturer
of campaign documents, that we were run
ning deeper and deeper in debt, and were in
reality bankrupt, comes the monthly state

Pacific Railroad bonds, which are not actual

their repayment, the decrease of the national
debt in the last month is over five million dol

to have heavier expenditures and lighter re

What of the Canvass ?
From the N. Y. World.
The confident spirit which prevails among
the Democracy iu the States where elections
are to be held next week is justified by the
visible indications of the oanvass, and con
firms the expectation we have constantly
cherished, that the Democratio strength
would be progressively developed, and the
party grow stronger aud stronger, up to the
day of the Presidential eleotiou. Paley has a
quaint illustration of the different effeots on
human happiness of growing or diminishing
means. A begins lite with an inoome of 100
pouuds a Tear, wMch goes on increasing
till he at last dies with an inoome of 1000
pounds a year. B, on the other hand, begins
with 1000, which gradually dwindles till he
ends with 100. These two men may each
have the spending of the Sume sum of money,
but they derive very unequal amounts
of satisfaction from it. It makes a great differ
ence at which end you begin. This illustration
applies to the relative strength of the two
parties in this Presidential canvass. The Re
publican party was stronger at the outset than
it has been any day sinoe, or than it will
be again. The Democratio party was weakest
on the very next day after the nominations,
and has been gaining in unity, discipline,
vigor, courage, aud numbers from that day to
this. Whatever its strength may have been
in September, at the time of the Maine elec
tion, It is greater now; and however well we
may do in the State elections next week, we
shall do much better in November.
This opinion rests on various considerations,
some f which we will state.
In the first place, we were late in the oan
vass, without any clear indications beforehand
of the nature of our platform or the persons of
our candidates. The Republican party had
pretty unanimously settled upon Grant as
early as February, and by the time of his
formal nomination in May the feeling In his
favor had risen as high as it was likely to go.
Everything favorable to him had been made
the most of during the preceding year, by the
Republican journals that had advocated his
nomination; and the publio mind had become
quite familiar with it. Mr. Seymour's nomi
nation, on tiie other hand, was unexpected,
and gave to many minds a shock. Had the
election been held three days Afterwards he
would not have reoelved as many votes by
thirty per cent, as will be given to him in
November. Some time was requisite for por
tions of the party to outgrow their previous
preference for other candidates. Some time
was also necessary for exploding the libels
invented against Governor Seymour daring
the war. While his antagonist stood as high
in publio favor as he conld ever become, time
ana effort wee necessary for bringing the
character of Mr. Seymour before the country
in its true light. Grant could gain nothing in
personal estimation daring the canvass; Sey
mour could gaiu much, for none of our publio
men have been more unjustly anl wautonly
aspeared.
In the next place, the issues of the cam
paign stood in a light muoh more favorable
to the Republicans at the beginning of the
campaign than they have since, or can again.
Up to July, there were no clearly exhibited
symptoms of the sudden break-down of the
negro State Governments by their own inhe
rent weakness. The Chicago Convention un
derstood their defects so little that it put
in the foreground of the Republican plat
form warm congratulations ou the trium
phant success of the Reconstruction policy
of Congress. Even so late as the assembling
of the Demooratio National Convention, an
astute, practical man like Geueral Blair
could discover no method of displacing the
negro governments but by military force.
The course of events iu the South is
wonderfully enlightening publio opinion
since. Anv Republican who should now con
gratulate the country on the happy sucoeBS of
leconstruction would be laughed to scorn as a
simpleton. Nor would au opponent of the
scheme who should now proclaim that nothing
but military force is adequate to upset it, gaiu
any respeet for his opiniou. Iu all such mat
ters experience is the great teacher; aud every
body is wiser now on the subject ot recon
duction thau anybody wa three or four
months ago. Experience has shown that the
problem how negro governments shall be
overthrown is not difficult. The difficulty is,
to discover any method by which they can be
sustained. They bave a coustant tendency to
tumble, like an ill-built tower, spontaneously
into ruiuB. Force is not needed to demolish
them; bat it is doubtful whether any force
could be sufficient to keep them standing. It
is demonstrated that the publij sentiment of
the South is so unalterably hostile to them,
th&t a great standiug army will have to be
maintained in that section so long as any at
tempts are made to keep them iu existence.
Before the oanvass opened, these recon
structed governments were regarded as a
"fixed fact," which it would require revolu
tionary measures to disturb. The progress of
events has shown that the "fixed faot" is the
immovable repugnanoe ot the Southern people
to the permanence of the system. The aspira
tion of the country is for peace, as was recog
nized in the closing sentence of General
Grant's letter of acceptance. At the time that
letter was written the prevalent impression
was that the new governments were esta
blished, and that armies, if used at all, could
be employed only for their demolition. Bat it
has now beoome evident that if armies are used
at all, it must be to keep the negro governments
in existence. Peaoe can come only by abandon
ing an abortive experiment. That part of the
people who are tired of the burden of armies,
can find the relief they seek only by such a
change of policy as will ensue on the eleotion
of a Demooratio President. The eleotion of
General Grant would pledge the Government
to four years' longer persistenoe in a fruitless,
odious, exasperating experiment. The coun
try sees already what its effeot is on the pub
lio sentiment of the South, and the longer it
is continued the more inveterate and stubborn
will be the opposition to it. Peaoe must,
therefore, come in a very different direotion
from what was supposed at the outset of this
oanvass, when the praotioal operation and
crumbling weakness of the new governments
had not been disclosed. Every day strengthens
the feeling of the country that Congressional
reconstruction is not peaoe. Every day of the
canvass, therefore, improves the prospects of
the Demooratio party.
In the third place, the Democracy constantly
grow in favor by exposures of the waste, ex
travagance, and prodigality of the Republican
party. This is a mode of appeal that comes
home to the business and pockets, to the
tables, firesides, and comfort of the whole
body of taxpayers. The enormous revenue
raised and squandered is felt to be a great
scandal as well as a great burden, and the
longer the 'oanvass continues the more thorough
will be the conviction that relief is impossible
without a change of rulers.
The eleotions next week will show an im
mense progress in publio opinion ou all these
subjects; but great as will be the demon
strated gains of the last month, those of the
ensuing month will be greater. The Kepub-
lican party was at the height of its influence
at the beginning or the canvass, and, iu spue
of its Btrenuous exertions, it has not main
tained its own; while the Democracy have
been constantly gaining, and will gain more
and more as the issues are better understood
Reaction In the South iu Favor of General
tirant.
From the W. T. Herald.
We gave yesterday an article from a stauuoh
Democratio paper, published in Louisville, Ky.,
advising the Southern people not to aot too
rashly in view of the eleotiou of General Grant
to the Presidency, but to take the situation
philosophically, satisfied that what they con
sider will be the rule of a despotism will be
better than the rule of a mob. It is quite evi
dent that the Southern press, as well as the
Southern leaders generally, are begiuning to
realize the faot that General Grant will be
elected, and are putting their houses in order
acco;diugly. This sentiment is spreading in
Virginia, where General Grant is regarded as
an object of no such hideous mien as they have
been picturing him. There the politicians are
cast aside and the people are beginning to turn
their attention to" railroad and commercial en
terprises, to local, agricultural, and other im
provements, so that we may in a brief period
again see this fine old Commonwealth, shorn,
perhaps, ol a portion of her broad domain, but
still the "Italy of this Continent," bloom and
prosper as she has in her palmy days. Ia
North Carolina we notioe that the probabili
ties of Grant's election are not creating so
much alarm as was exhibited some time ago,
and that quite lately a prominent Demoorat
and a distinguished Confederate officer have
come out in his favor. In faot, throughout
the South, Instead of the pHnters alopttnz
the advice of torn silly people and abandon
ing tueir plantations, aud iioinis lu oan or
Grant's election, wiser oouoaela are prevailing,
and they are bngiuuia,r, to. think that tht
event will not bring so much of a shower after
all. Upon one lulu w think onr Southern
friends may rely, and that is. in ca?e
a contest should arise as to which race shall
have the inpremaoy iu the South, and Gene
ral Grant is called nrvm to r1l.lA rt&mVm will
have to go to the wall. Altogether, we believe
it would be well for. the South to regard
General Grant as a friend, a mediator and pa
cificator, rather than an enemy, a despot and
aestroyer.
