V THE DAlLr EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, NOEMBE'U 20, 18G9. srxxixT or tub rnisss. I'dil (trial Opinion of the Lending Journal Upon Current Toplc.-Uoinpllod Every Dny Tor the Evening Telegraph. THE 11EPUBLICANS AND THE SOUTH. jfYtrm the X. Y. Tribune To Major-Qoncral Benjamin F. Bim.r.n, M. C My Dear Win Your name, I think you will Lave remarked, is very often pronounced, from oue end of our country to tlio other. I travelling soruewhfit, observing a littlo, and reading nowRjmpers considerably quite often boar it mentioned, and (it may mirpriso you to loarn) not always admiringly. And yet, vhilo I have for many years heard and read all manner of evil Baid of you some of it ab- ' Hardly groundless and falso I cannot recol lect that I ever hoard or read a suggest ion that you wero a fool. Now, I coma bofore the public to impeach not yourself person ally, but a policy wherewith your name is popularly and prominoiitly'idontiliod, as lack ing rational motive and at war with common sermo. I allndo to that policy which prolongs indefinitely tho proscription and disfranchise- - ment of a large portion of tho men of tho (South for their part in the late Rebellion. Understand that I speak from tho stand point not of sentiment but of business. I do not here impeach that policy as harsh or hateful, but as deficient in tact in gump tion. I impeach it as nursing and intensify ing enmities certain to subvert, at no distant day, the party which is identified with it. I will not dwell upon the well-known fact that the late Governor Andrew, in his fare well message or address, put forth four years ago, strongly urged a policy antagonistic to this a policy that contemplated the early and complete conciliation of the South, through the enfranchisement and magnanimous treat ment of her natural leaders. Nor need I invito your attention to the fact that General Sickles (a Bhrewd, thoroughly practical politician) offi cially remonstrated, more than three yoars ago, against the proscription of prominent and wealthy ex-Kebels, as depriving him of the Bervicee of the very men he urgently needed and could make most useful in governing South Carolina. Nor do I care to press homo . the fact, of which you cannot bo ignorant, that the Southern men of education and pro- Certy are by far more reasonable and less itter than their poorer, more ignorant neigh bors are less implacable, more rational, and more ready to unite heartily in rebuilding the waste places of the laud. Nor will I dwell upon the noble addition mado, on motion of General Carl Schurz, to the latest national platform of tho Republican party that plank which declares proscription a temporary ex pedient, rendered necessary by a grave public . peril, and to be abandoned when that peril whall have vanished. I rest on tho naked fact that the Republican party imminently ncods the good will which this policy repels, and must go under if that good will be not so cured. I assume that you realize tho absolute ne cessity of the triumph of tho fifteenth amend ment to the success of Genoral Grant's ad- ministration, and that yon must be aware that the fate of that amendment is yet doubt ful. Ten adverse btates sutnee to Ueleat it: ,. r... j.-c., 1 1. .!,,.. sr...... land, Kentuckp, lennessee, California, end .Oregon are already beyond hope. The loss of Tennessee, was at once a calamity and a blunder one of theso intense stupidities Which a great party is seldom allowed to re peat. How llhode Island, Indiana, Georgia and Nebraska stand, I need not inform you. Suffice it that it will require tho wisest conn Pols and the best efforts to avert the threat ened failure of that great and wise measure of "safety, benignity, and peace. The men now coming to Congress to de znand that Tennessee be upset, and Virginia remanded, and Mississippi and Texas held as patrapies for an indefinite ponoii, unless tney Vote as thoy are bidden, utterly fail to com prehend the situation. They evidently sup pose that we have nothing at stake that we may keep three or four States unreconstructed and unrepresented in Congress during plea Bure. I hope you know better at all events, : J do. "We do not merely need the fifteenth amendment ratified before 1872 we urgently need it now. If it bo delayed one year longer we shall have more than one State legislature besides that of New York as suming to withdraw the ratification already accorded; and, while you and I may rightly deny the legal validity of such with drawal, I am sure neither of us will dispute its moral weight. Connecticut is to hold an election next April, when the votes of her colored citizens will be found exceedingly useful, if not absolutely "needed; New Jersey and Pennsylvania have United States , Sena tors depending on the result of their next (Stale election respectively, and the like votes are absolutely needed in the former and pro bably so in the latter. Several seats in tho next Congress from Ohio and other States will be won or lost as the right to vote for members shall be exercised by their whole people or only by the whites. Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware will each be stoutly and hopefully contested next year if tho amendment be meantime ratified, while we shall not elect one member from all three of thepe States if it be not. To my apprehen sion, the control of the next House of Repre sentatives will probably hinge on that event. I ask you, then, to consider, as a practical man, whether we can afford to pick and choose from among those disposed to favor that amendment whether it will not bo sui cidal folly to repel any proffered or possible support. I ask you whether any attempt to pry into the motives of those who may favor it to ascertain whether they wore not Rebels, and, if bo, whether they have re pented of having been suoh is not a childish exhibition of that ftphit which "gooth before a fall." In short, I ask you to consider this whole matter in the liubt of naked, hearty. lioinely common sense, nnd act upon it as the demands of the exigency shall seem to reauire. The urgency of tho case must excuse the freedom of this appeal. Rightly or wrongly, the country regards you as the loador in Con- cress of those who have been most exacting in their requirements oi mo ciuieaiea .ueueis, . ' and least inclined to treat them with confi dence or generosity. The reproaches which I have incurred in this quarter will neverattach to you, aud your adhesion to the policy which the occasion demands will never be attributed to weakness or sentimentality. I ask you therefore, to place yourself promptly and heartily at tho bead of a movement looking to tho instant and comploto removal of all nolitical dsubilities whutver from any and every one who favors or shall favor the fif teentu amendment, and their prompt restora tion to all tho nrmleees of citizenship. .Let us havo peace! ' Yours, Hon.vcE Gr.Er.i.EY. New York, Nov. 'Ji, Wn. THE CASE OF MTARLAND. I'rom the X. V, World. "We have expressed our notion of the propriety of a breakage of tho sixth com mandmcnt by way of a private protest against I an infraction of tho seventh. It only remains I to be added that thore is no testimony, in tho case of tho shooting of Mr. Richardson by Mr. McFailaud, that even that inadequate excuse for horuicido was furnished. That Mr. Richardson has paid suit to a wifo separated from her husband appoars most truo. Truo, ho has avowed an intention to marry her. But thero is nothing to show that tho head nnd front of his offending had any more than this extent. Whatever Mr. Mcl'arland mny have suspected, ho has adduced nothing to justify any suspicion other than this. And killing, where thcro is nny doubt in tho case, is more murder, whatovcrbo thought of it when tho case is clear. If not, all that auy murderer need do is to shoot any person who may for any renson bo obnoxious to him, nnd got himself held harmless by avowing not his warranted conviction but his bare suspicion that the person so shot has been mislead ing tho spouse of the person so shooting. To erect every such man a judgo in his own cause is simply to inaugurate anarchy, and to insure impunity to any murderer; since his allegation would bo, in most cases, impos sible of confutation. In one rccont caso that of Dickey the murderer brought tho charge, and it so hnppenod that is could bo distinctly disproven. But except for tho accidental presence of witnesses tho story of Dickey would havo been .accepted, and have insured him impunity for his crime. Wo do not say that McFarland's charge against Rich ardson is equally basolcss. But it is cer tainly the business of a man who resorts to theso violent moans of righting himself to make suro and to bo able to certify others that he has been wronged. And even then it cannot justify, however it mny be considered to extenuate, tho illegal taking of life. If adultery is properly a capital oll'onse, ' let it bo made so by law. If not, let no injured husband bo suffered to become a law unto himself. It is also to be remembered, with out reference to this case in particular, that tho men who have chosen this mode of as serting themselves havo generally been de praved and heartless men, whoso feelings nobody could regard as exceptionally sensi tive. And it is also to be remembered, with especial reference to this ease, that then killings are usually conductod in a cowardly manner. But, apart from this cases it is notable that the feelinR from which all these homicides spring is that of the intellectual inferiority of women. It is tho outgrowth of tho feeling which woman's rights associations exist to put down, that tho feminine is tho weaker vessel, and that she relies upon men for tho "protection" which men are supposed to bo capable of exercising for themselves. No body ever hoars of a woman's turning out to assassinate another woman for betraying hor domestic peace; or if, as in the case of the in jured wife of l'ortliuid, of whom we lately read, a sporadic female does occasionally re sort to tbis violent means of protecting hor honor, she is looked upon as a strong-minded exception to tho female rule, unless she in dicates her sex by some suah exquisitely feminine trait ns tho injured wifo in that caso displayed, by tearing off from her perforated and prostrate rival the falso hair in tho factitious meshes of which hor own lawful lord had been ensnared. As it is a curious fact that the women who are tho chief cham pions of the "equal rights ot their sex aro alpo tho women who confess tho dependence of their sex by calling for peculiar penalties against tho seducers ot its innocence and weakness. Men have no legal protection against their wiles aud blandishments. No man has yet been found so fatuous as to bring suit against his seducer, and it is certain that it he did so no action would bo held to ho. Yet the women who insist upon equality be fore the laws in general, also insist upon ine quality before the law in this particular. The verdict of tho Cleveland convention would doubtless be, supposing tho charge of McFar land to be well founded, that it was a valid excuse for his conduct; whereas it ought, in logical consistency, to be that ho had usurped the functions of his cx-wife, and committed an officious and superservicoable crime. So much more potent is instinct than logic in even the strong-minded female breast. MR. GARFIELD ON THE CURRENCY AND SPECIE PAYMENTS. From the X. Y. Herald. The chairman of the House Committee in Congress on Banking and Currency has been interviewed by our Washington correspon dent relative to his views on the subject of returning to spocio payments and the cur rency, ihe honorable gentleman appoars brimful of this subject, and is preparing to take an active part in the consideration of it in the approaching sossion of Congress. He does not think this matter properly belongs to the Committee of Ways aud Means, which has heretofore "sot itself up not only to pro vide ways aud means for raising revenuo, but to shape the financial policy of the country," and it is his inlontion to make his committee the financial one of the House in this respect, Mr. Garfield evidently is in earnest, and tho country will bo gratified to know that he entertains some broad and liberal viows, which the Committee of N ays and Means has not shown, on tho currency und national bank quebtiwns. Mr. Garfield is becoming emancipated from the on-to-specie-piiynienl and currency theo ries of some of his party organs and men in CoDgress. While he avows himself in favor of resuming specie payments, nnd would set his face towards resumption, ho does not be lieve "tho way to resume is to resume," and would not do anything that might "suddenly unsettle values and create great financial dis tress, bo fur, then, he is on tho right track But he has not got far enough in his finnncial education, for he still clings to tho old idea that a contraction of tho currency is necessary to bring about specie payments. He has, con sequently, a scheme for gradual contraction with a view to accomplish that object. But why contraction? There is not more currency in tho country than it needs, nnd any cou traction must prove disastrous. If tho volume of currency bo left as it is, the extraordinary growth of tho country and the increase of population and business will operate the same as contraction; for tho increased demand for money as a circulating medium would make it more and more source relatively. This is what we call growing up to specie payments healthfully and gradually, and what we have advocated all along. But Mr. Garfield makes a mistake in supposing specio payments de pend altogether upon the volume of currency, Specie payments can only bo resumed wheu tho exchanges nro not so much against us wheu the balance of exchunge with foreign countries is moro equalized, and when the precious metals cannot be drained from us to meet the demands of foreigners. Here lies the difficulty, and wo recommend Mr. Garfield to turn his attention to that rather than to the mere abstract and impracticable theory of contraction. As regards tho national bank circulation, and withdrawing that with a view of substi tuting legal-tenders iu its place, Mr. Garfield is all light. There is no reason why tho Gov ernment nnd people Rhould not derive the profits from a national currency, which amount, on that portion which the national banks circulate, to ubout twenty-four millions of dollars a year, nnd thero is every reason why this vast sum should not be pivon nwny to private corporations, particularly when tho people would havo a uniform and bolter cur rency by substituting leg'il-tendors for na tional bank notes. JiOt Mr. Garfield maturo Borne measure for effecting this change, and 1ress it upon Congress with all his ability, and io ninv feel assured of tho approbation f the public. Ho will havo uphill work; for this nntionnl bank monopoly is a ninility power. Still it is a work worthy of a statesman, and he will find his reward in promoting tho in terests of tho country and iu tho ."ratitudo of tho people. PARTISAN INFLUENCE IN THE NAVY DEPARTMENT. 2-Vovi the X. Y. Sun. For a long time past there has been slowly growing nnd steadily increasing a strong fool ing ot jealousy among tho l'uo olucers oi uio Navy against tho staff officers on tho subject of their rolntivo rank. This feeling is so false and ungenerous in principle, and has of late produced such unexpected and unjust results, that tho Rtnff officers find themselves forced to appeal to Congress for redress. This they will do at the. approaching sossion. 1 he trouble originates in the assumption on tho port of tho lino officers of the errone ous notion that rank and command aionocos- sniily associated together, nnd that tho in terests and discipline of tho navy aro placed in constant jeopnrdy by the stall oiheers hav ing any rank at nil. They forget that tho power of command is clearly and alono vested iu mem oy law, ami uiat no sian oiucur, uo his rank what it may, can exercise tho slight Jl 1 1 1 .1 -A 1 est control, except in its own department. Nevertheless, they have always fought and continue to fight against any accession or in- crenso of rank to the stall ; and lately tney have done so with such success that they have accomplished even its degradation, ami in so doing havo outraged ovory principle of equity, and even tarnished tho honor of tho service. Since tho advent of tho present adminis tration, in whose official appointments mili tary men have been very largely solected, and under which, in tho very organization of the Navy Department, a lino officer and a strong line partisan, by some uuheard-of authority, immediately assumed its control over the nominal Secretary, nn old line scheme which had long been hatching has been fully devel oped.! I nder tins prejudiced aud thoroughly ono- sidod influence, the Navy Department, taking advantage of tho vacation of Congress, when redress could not be had, nnd assuming a power to degrade only allowed by law to courts-martial nnd the President, issued an order (No. l'.'O) bv which every staff officer in tho navy, without trial and without cause, has been reduced; and tbis reduction in mauy cases has gone to the extent of two wholo grades. It is stated that tho thro.it that this would be done it ihe disgraceful bill of Mr. Grimes was not pas: ed bv the House, was made last spring to tho House Naval Commit tee by a well-known line officer of high rank; and now the thing has been done. It is true that the nominal Secretary of the Navy pro poses to settle the difficulty through a mixed board of olueer3; but no such settlement can meet the exigencies of the case. It must be clear to every citizen and mem ber ot Congress that tho lino lntiuenco in the Navy Department is doing much harm, and that it is too reeklts and too arrogant for a healthy condition of the naval service or for tho public good. It needs to bo omcially strangled by act of Congress. SPECIAL NOTICES. BV- COLD WEATHER DOES NOT CIIAP mr i a i t.i r U'nn i lfTio A t CONATKD GLYCERINE TA HLUT Or KOLIDIEIKD GLYCERINE.
