The New York World of Monday gives ft
Itaok-handed tlap aftur a fashion that should
jnake radical ears tiugle. It pays: "The Post

Says, 'must shrink from serving as inspectors
When Republicans ate excluded.' " Taming
this about, it innwt appear that honorable
Jlepublioans mast shrink from serving as in
spectors when Ueniociata are excluded, in
trhion case there must have bren an immense
amount of shrinking for the past three years in
3'ennef see and Missouri, seeing that in both of
lbo3e States no De moorat is by any possibility
allowed to be inspector at all, and is happy If
lie may even be permitted to vote. If the
iact be in Brooklyn as stated by the Post, it
does not in any way appear that such fact is
contrary to law, uor is it even to be conceived
for a moment that any radical is to be de-

Free Discussion in the South.
ffl-om the if. Y. Evening Post.
We continue to look in the Democratic jour
nals of the Northern States for some signs of
disapproval of the intolerance of their politi
cal allies in the Southern States; but so far we
Jiave looked in vain. This is the more strange,
as it ought to be plain to them that the uu re
strained exercise of the propensity to murder
Republicans does not really strengthen the
J)emocratio parly.
It should seem that, both as patriotio citi
zens and as shrewd politicians, the Northern
Xemocratio leaders would urge their Southern
friends to stop murdering and driving out Re
publicans, lint we hear of not a word of re
monstrance. In the beginning of the canvass,
vhen the Democrats here had some hopes of
Success, they wrote hastily to Southern men,
2eseeohing them to stop their imprudent
Speeches; and this warning was at onoe obeyed
Jjy Hampton, Toombs, Cobb, Hill, and the
rrett of the Southern Democratio speakers.
IThe greater number of them are silent; those
who continue to address the people use cau
tious language.
But, being told that it was imprudent to
Speak, the Southern Demoorats at once began
to act. That is to say, they began to carry
out in proscription and murder the advice
given thtm by their lea lers before thjse be
came silent. At Camilla, a Republican meet
ing was dispersed with arms, and a consider
able part of its members killed. At Lumpkin,
In Georgia, armed men prevented the assem
bling of a Republican meeting. The Covington
Oeorgia) Express reports that "two carpet
Lag school-teachers, Lee and Hammond,"
liaving "received a gentle admonition that
their valuable services might possibly be more
appreciated in some 6ther latitude, took an
affectionate adieu of their associates, and on
Monday last turned their faces toward Mason
and Dixon's line." James Martin, a Republi
can member of the South Carolina Legislature,
was shot a few days ago, while riding home;
and leaves a widow and six orphan children.
In a Utter which we printed on Tuesday, Dr.
Jilount, of Stewart county, Georgia, related:
"On the 4th and 101 h of September attempts
bf the moat niurdirons cha.actar were made to
Snob nit: butbyoue of those Interpositions of
Dlvlue Providence my lire was spired from a
snob of Ku KIdi Democrats. (Subsequently
two attempt were made to assassinate me la
Toy room, and on the night of the 27 in ultimo
juy Hie was only saved by my wife and Utile
daughter clinging to ine. I was forced to leave
any home on the night of the 21) lb ultimo to
ave my life. 1 had boen notified by the mobs
and those whs had attempted to assassinate
ine, thai I should not live if I remained In the
county alter the 3d Instant."
On all this the Democratio leaders are
Silent. Why f A few words from them would
put a stop to theBe crimes. A few words of
deoisive, earnest reprooch from Northern
Democrats would probably make a Republi
can's n ie tolerably safe la the southern states
"Why are the Democratic leaders and journals
pilent f Mr. Adams, to be sure, goes to
Columbia and entreats his hearers to "have
patience;" but that is scarcely the effective
ihrane to use.
We still hope to see the Democratio journals
and leaders denounce the violence of their
Southern allies, and rise their inffuenoe to stop
It. If they have so entirely given up the
election that they are not impelled to give
rood counsel from motives of prudence, it re
mains their duty, as good citizens, to use
whatever lullueuce they may have to keep the
peace.
cw York City Republican.
Fiomthe W, Y. Commercial Advertiser.
The Hepublloan politicians who run the
machines in this city take more interest in
nominating candidates for olhoe, for whom
there is not a cuoni oi a chance ot election.
than they do about keeping fraudulent votes
out of the ballot-box and reducing De moo ratio
majorities. I uesday night, botu organizations.
instead of giving their whole attention to this
matter, weie engaged in disgraceful squabbling
about nominations. It will be no fault of theae
meu if the Democrats Lave ninety thousand
majority in this city. They have permitted
the most outrageous frauds in the Issuing o(
naturalization papers that ever were perpe
trat-d. They have not taken the first step to
prevent the'ahameleiis conspiracies to defraud
the honest voters of New York. Most of these
men are a fraud npouthe Republican party, as
they connive with the Democracy to carry out
their schemes of corruption. J'ue Republican
organization of the city is rotten and imbecile
uney uoia meeting, spout stale twaddle
dilnk villainous whisky, brag and swagger
about who is going to represent their district
in me next convention, and who is to have
control of the spoils. They met last night at
Cooper Institute to gabble and glorify over the
election returns from Pennsylvania. Ohio, and
Indiana. This glorifying Is all right, provided
these men could be induced to do something
-cractlcal. and eueci lometninx like period

majorities souiethluz to buna up the party
luttheydo nothing of the kind. Nit until
3'uesday evening was the first step taken to ar
Tang lor the appointment of committees to
fkUux ou the rvgbjtrauon to day am t mor
row. We Lave felt called on to speak thus I
plain, that our Republican friends in the city I
may realize the condition and danger the party
is in -from the inemoienoy, lmoeouuy, seinau
ness, and corruptibility of the ward and dis
trict engineers of the party. JThey spend four
or five hundred dollars for a political gather
ing at Cooper Institute, to wake np slepy
Republicans and to convert a dozen or less of
moderate Democrats. The same amount of
time and money spent in ward organiza
tions would keep five hundred bogus Demo
cratio votes out of the ballot-box, and
enlist the active and intelligent young men of
the ward into service that would carry ten
Republican votes to the polls where only one
is brought by small beer orators, brass bauds,
and Roman candles. Oar Republican city
politicians as a general thing are but one re
move above the Mongolians, who fight their
enemies with banners, tin boms, tambou
rines, and wind instruments. Because of the
inefficiency of these organizations our friends
in the country need not despair that the De
mocrats are going to roll up a majority of sixty
thousand in the city. They will do nothing of
the kind, beoause they will not be permitted
to carry out their contemplated frauds.
The Sweep or the Ureat Spanish Ilevo
lutioiw (
From the iV. Y. Times.
We trust the Spanish Junta now controlling
the revolution will be justified in their assur
ance of popular support for the very radical
conrpe they are pursuing.
The extraordinary series of step3 taken
within the last few days have been followed
by another. The Junta have seiz-jd the pro
perty of the Jesuits and abolished the Order,
and have also taken ground in favor ot the
suppression of all religions corporations.
We most assuredly uphold aud approve
these steps, as well as all the steps previously
taken, with perhaps a single exception. But
we can hardly get rid of a doubt that the
Spanish people are prepared to support the
Junta in carrying out a policy so Bweeping as
that which has been adopted.
We know the value of audacity and radi
calism in a revolutionary crisis such as now
exists in Spain. We know the dangers of
timidity and imbecility. We also kuow the
falsity of the maxim that "revolutions never
go backward." And we know that if the
revolution is not supported by the sentiment
of the people it will end in its own ruin.
The principal stronghold of the Jesuits has
lieen Spain. Originating with the Spaniard
Loyola three centuries ago, that subtle Order
Lave managed, amid all their adversities and
changes of fortune, to maintain a powerful
hold over the Spanish mind. To them Spain
owes, in great part, her despotism, her eccle
siastical bigotry, aud her mental prostration.
Thtir extirpation was necessary to the regene
ration of the country. Neither civil freedom
nor religions liberty was possible while their
power remained. In peremptorily abolishing
them, Spain but follows a course that has been
taken by nearly every Catholic Uovernment
of Europe, and she has plenty of precedents
for the confiscation of their property. In re
gard, also, to the measures for the extinction
of the religious corporations, whioh monopo
lize a large portion of the property of Spain,
the Junta have done little more than has
lately been done by the Italian Government.
In undertaking, on quick notice, the regu
lation of all the affairs and all the relations of
Spain, the Junta, we apprehend, may find
that they have gone further than is permissi
ble for a l'rovlMonal Uovernment. They have
not only proclaimed civil and religious liberty,
the freedom of the press, and universal suf
frage, but they have meddled with internal
taxation and diplomatic business. They have
peremptorily settled the long outstanding
lornado dilnculty wltu England by delivering
np the ship and paying damages. They have
taken up the tariff and ordered a serious re
duction of import duties. They have abolished
internal taxes on domestio and foreign goods.
They have negotiated a loan. They have un
dertaken the regulation of colonial matters.
And, in fact, they appear to have applied the
revolution to all the principles, interests, and
economies of the (government.
There was an item Wednesday morning,
amorjg others of greater interest, that the pro
vinces of Barcelona and Valenoia nave heal
tated in their recognition of the Junta. We
trust this does not signalize the beginning of
a reaction that will imperil the great gains
which have been bo suddenly effected.
The Democratic "Policy of Kulliilcatloii.''
From the XT. Y. World.
' Governed by South Carolina treason, the
Democratic party has made General Blair its
stHndard-bearer solely and avowedly because
tie urges ,ne application or ine pretension which
Madibon and Jackson alike repudiated as In
compatible with law and government. Tue
secessionists have become nullltlers again, and
ine coppemeuus are wnn ttiem as heartily as
ever.
''It is not surprising that the War Demoorats,
so called, emphatically disclaim fellowship with
a party which, under the pretence of opposing
reconstruction, mimes war upon ine iunua
menlal principle of government, tramples upon
ihe Constitution as interpreted by ita authors,
and scouts the injunctions of Jackson, who de
clared thai ine union nan si aud snail De pre
served. As now organized and managed, with
nullification as Its platform and a proclaimed
nuilitler as lis exponent, it is a parly which
must be put down, unless the country Is pre
pared 10 Bee law suoverteu oy me uecree oi a
partisan Convention, aud anarchy established
as therebull of reconstruction overthrown."
A. Y. Time:
This wild, libellous tirade is discreditable
to the journal in whioh it appers. That the
Reconstruction acta are unconstitutional is
the settled belief of the Democratio party.
This belief is not a factious caprice, caught
up in the heat of partisanship. Moderate
men of-the soundest judgment and of the
best trained faculties, like Judge Curtis, of
Boston, Thomas hwing, of Ohio, Mr. Stan
bery, the late Attorney-General, and hundreds
of lawyers of equal or nearly equal eminence,
think the oonlltct of these laws with the Con
stitution too clear for doubt. Thaddeus
Stevens himself used to sooff at the pretense
that they were constitutional; and his asso
oiates in Congress shared his opinion, as
appeared by the bills for preventing an adju
dication of the question by the Supreme
Court. We suppose that the editor of the
limes does not question the conscientious
sincerity ot the Democratio opinion. What
ne charges is, that we resort to unconstitu
tional means for setting laws aside.
Let this calumny be judged in the light of
facts.
When the quarrel arose between the Presi
dent and Congress, the Demooratto party
supported the l'resident merely by its moral
influence and the votes of its few members of
Congress. The President's own method of
conducting his side of the controversy was
chiefly by argumentative vetoes, which,
whatever may have been their merit as argu
ments, were explicitly authorized by the Con
stitution. In that stage of the controversy,
therefore, neither the President ' nor the
Demooratio party was open to the charge of
"nullification."
The next phase in the progress of this great
quarrel was the offer by Congress of the so
called fourteenth amendment. Thia encoun
tered no veto beoause it was not presented
to the l'resident for his signature. In the
State Legislatures to which it was submitted
Democrats voted against it; but we do not
know that it was ever conteuded that they
hid not aa perfeat a right to vote against it as
for it. Up to thia point, then, the Demo
cratio party did not pass the limits of consti
tutional opposition.
Next came the Reconstruction acts an I mili
tary domination in the South. These were
abundantly denounoed by Democratio speak
ers and journalists; but freedom of speeohand
the press being a dear constitutional right,
such denunciation gives no oolor to the Times'
charge. In the progress of affairs attempts
were made, with the approval of the
whole Demooratio party, to bring the Recon
struction acts to the test of a Judicial decision;
but Congress, by an unscrupulous exercise of
power, interfered to shut the door against this
peaceful and constitutional method of redress.
This brings forward tbe history to an advanced
period of the last session of Congress, up to
which time the opposition of the Demojratlo
party, though often impugned on other
grounds, was never charged with proceeding
by irregular or revolutionary methods.
We next proceed to consider the aotion of
the Democratio National Convention. Access
to the Supreme Court having been debarred
as by Congress, the Convention decided to
submit the question to the people, as a main
issue in the Prepidential election. The people
of the United States are asked by the Demo
cratic party to pronounce the reconstruction
acts "unconstitutional, revolutionary, and
void." Such an issue may be just as legiti
mately presented as any other. The veto
power having been annihilated by the uncon
stitutional exclusion of members of Congress
whose votes would have made it effectual, and
the Supreme Court having been forbidden to
entertain the question, nothing could be more
in order than an appeal to that ultimate tribu
nal, the sovereign people. If they give their
verdict that the reconstruction acts are un
constitutional, revolutionary, and void, they
will thereby merely exercise their right to re
view and pass judgment upou the aotion of
their government. II they do not possess this
right, popular elections are a solemn faroe and
the pretense of republican government an ab
surdity.
The only remaining question relates to the
means by whioh the judgment of the people
Shall be executed if they decide against the
Congressional method of reoonstruotlon.
Does'the Demooratio party, in case of success,
propose to nullify any existing laws ? In re
spect to the seven "reconstructed" Estates the
acts have expired by their own limitation.
They have no longer any binding force, even if
they could be supposed to have been originally
valid. They do not require to be repealed by
Congress nor set asde by the Supreme Court,
for in respect to tho.se t even States they are
no longer laws. In the three States in whioh
they are still operative, they are legitimate
subjects for application to the judiciary; and
the Supreme Court, with the moral support
of a majority of the people, would be no
longer cowed into a surrender of ita inde
pendence. The acts would be declared void
by an authority constitutionally competent
to make that decision, aud those three states
would be released from military oppression.
Thia will have been accomplished before the
inauguration of the Demooratio President.
Next will come the question of the stability
of the reconstructed governments in the pre
sent form. The deoision of the people and of
me fcupreme uourt that the laws under which
tbey were organized were unconstitutional
will have a great moral effect, and probably
paralyze all opposition to such changes as the
estates may desire to make. There will be no
desire to nullify a Federal law, but only to
amend the State Constitutions. The right of
the people of a State to amend their existing
constitution or adopt a new one 13 unques
tionable. In New York, in 1S4G, we oalled a
convention, and framed a new Constitution in
disregard of the provisions of the old one, and
our highest judges, and the best legal minus
in the State gave written opinion? justifying
such a course, in mostot the "reconstructed"
States the white citizens are a majority, and
will have no difficulty in adopting any Con
stitution they may like. In these States, the
bastard governments will be supplanted by
methods whose regularity cannot be called in
question. When the odious system has been
thus peacefully overthrown in all the States
but one or two where there are negro majori
ties, it will yield to moral iniluenoe and fall
of itself in these.
Even the Southern whites, who regard the
negro governments with the strongest detesta
tion, have made no attempts at nullification.
In expelling the negroea in Georgia they
merely exercised the right possessed by all
American legislative bodies to judge of the
quantitations of their own members. In ail
those States, the Democratio party is engaged
in a zealous attempt to earry the elections
which are to be held under the auspices and
direction of the new governments. Nothing
could be farther from "nullification," nothing
less in the nature of revolutionary methods.
than this practical recognition of the de facto
governments in an attempt to uae them as the
instrument of their own reformation.
Thia plain reoital of faots audioes to demon
strata that the Times' talk about nullification
is a mess of libellous twaddle.
Au Appeal to Democrats.
From the JV. Y. Tribune.
To that class of Democrats who make sham
Democtacy pay a dividend we make no appeal
We can argue against doubts, bat not against
dollars. But to those who vote the Democratic
ticket fiom some intended reverence for the
foimer principles of the Demooratio party; to
titoee who nave come to believe that the Dem
ocratio tarty is truly conservative; to those
who have the notion that some feature of its
financial policy would be favorable to tax
payersto any who, from honest motives,
design to vote for Seymour, we put the direct
question: Can you yourself afford to have
Seymour elected T
I. "You are opposed," you say, "to the
Congress plan of reconstruction. " Very well.
What could Seymour do about it if he were
President? You bad a Democratio President
and Cabinet in office during the whole contest
which resnlted in the abandonment of reoon
st ruction on the Demooratio or white basis
only, and the substitution of the Republican
plan of universal or negro suffrage. If we
had had the aid ot a Kepubiioan rresiuem lor
the adoption of this polioy, there might be
some hope that you, by the aid of a Demo
cratio Ptesident, might overthrow it. But
Andrew Johnson fought thia polioy from the
outset, tooth and nail, inoh by inch, with an
ability at least equal to Mr. Seymour's, and a
courage far greater, lie entered into ine ugm
with a maioritv in both houses of Congress
and of-tLe people, on hia side. Ue tried his
polioy fully, uninterruptedly, with despotic
completeness, lie did au tnai oeymour ouun
have done, had be been in office then, and a
hundred times more than Seymour could do
now. or after the 4th of March next. He fought
the Republican polioy until he was shorn of
bis usual powers, and at laai escapeu uy
barely one vote from losing ms omn9 alto
gether. Yet hia opposition pratioally availed
nothing, and he was finally obliged to execute
me laws he had opposed, and to be ntmseii an
agent in carrying out the Republican plan
of reconstruction. What, with a Demooratio
President in office, you oould not prevent,
how would you bv the aid of another Demo
cratic President reverse and undof If
with your bullrusU yon could not check
Niagara, how would you with the nm
weapon set it running backward t Th
Southern Btates are reconstructed on the
basis of universal suffrage. Some of them are
restored to the Uuion. More than tvo-third
of CongreBB passed aud will maintain this
polioy, whoever my be President. Thia ma
jorlty cannot be overcome in less than four
years. After the blacks have voted four years.
uu ;uu uvya meu io uisiranouise tnsm r Sey
mour as l'resident, therefore, oould do nothing
towards a "white man's government" whtuh
Johnson has not already done, unless, as indi
cated by General Blair, he should use the
army in deiiance of Congress and Its laws
Thia would be revolution and rebellion. You
trird those remedies under Jefferson Davis.
Do you need to try them again to recall their
tflVcts f Seymour, therefore, oonld avail you
nothing whatever in the matter of reconstruction.
II. "You would like," you ear. "to see
taxes diminished." No tax is so disastrous
as the depreciation of the currency. Yet your
Democratio parly proposes to convert the
entire national debt Into currency by paying
it in greenbacks. This would reduce its value
to a nominal figure or destroy it altogether,
so deranging the business of tbe country as to
bring ruin on millions of people. Your Demo
cratio party wonld have a President assume
the rod of a dictator, prop himself up by a
standing army, and defy the laws whioh he is
sworn to enforce. Bach a course would call
your sons or yourselves again into the field
lo light, willing or unwilling, and would drain
the country of countless millions of treasure
to be destroyed iu civil wais. Cau yon
afford it f
III. "You adhere," you say. "to the ancient
principles of the Demooratio party." If so,
that forms the most conclusive reason why
you ought not to support its present platform
and candidates. The Democratio party be
lieved anciently in a specie currency. Now,
it would Hood the country with irredeemable
paper money. It believed anciently In free
trade. Now ita platform containa an insincere
and hypocritical clause advocating a protec
tive tariff, put in to catch gudgeona in Penn
sylvania. It waa jealous anciently of a des
potic hxecutive, and labored to maintain the
liberties of the people and the power of their
representatives. Now it indorses one Presi
dent for attempting to override Congress, and
nominates another on his promise to repeat
ine euori.
The Democratio party was formerly jealous
to preserve the rights of Statea. But if that
question is in any way involved in thia con
test, the Democratio party ia on the Federal
ist side of the controversy. It acknowledges
the power of a President of the United States
to annul and destroy ten State governments,
some of which existed from the formation of
the Union, and to substitute for them new
governments dictated by himself, without any
autborny oi law. What power nan be more
Federalistio, more subversive of State rights,
or more autocratio and despolio f It then
denies the power of Congress to enable by law
the whole people of these States to form State
governments of their own, based on universal
suffrage. What doctrine can be more flagrant
Federalism or more subversive of State rights
than that a President may create ten new
States without consulting the representatives
of the other twenty-seven, or any portion of
the people f
Finally, the Democratio party was anciently
the party of universal suffrage. Noah Web
ster, himself a Democrat, forty years age de
fined a Democrat to be "one who advocates
the extension of the eleotive franchise to all
conditions of men." But the Demooraoy of
to-day rests solely on the hobby of the exclu
sion of a whole race of native-born citizens of
America from the franchise. What principle
of democracy can inhere in a party which,
abandoning State rights and popular sove
reignty, sustains the most despotio usurpa
tions by the Executive of legislative powers f
What in a party that abhors universal suf
frage and clings to caste ? What in a party
that advocatea protective tariffs in Pennsylva
nia and free trade in Maine ? That substitutes
for the will of the majority the threat of revo
lution f Every Democrat who believes in the
essence of time-honored Domocratio principles
should vote for Grant and Colfax.
repudiation.
From the N. Y. World.
Senator Morgan tella us that paying bonds
in lawful money which the Government did
not agree to pay in gold la repudiation. Sena
tor Morgan's party and the Senator himself
enact that greenbacka are a legal tender for
all debts public and private. The Senator's
own firm refused to pay in gold freight due
under a charter-party which they agreed in
the charter-party itself to pay in gold, and
when sued for the difference defended it suc
cessfully. If Mr. Pendleton is a repudiator
the Legal-tender act made him such. Bat
even he admits the duty of the Government
to pay in gold when it has agreed so to do.
Mr. Morgan should read the arguments of hia

the case referred to. It was decided by the
Superior Court of this city within two years.
