THE TEM PER 16f ' THE SdUTliJ I '
From the If. Y. World.
We bare before as some addresses f roin
Southern conservative State executive corni--t
tmttees wnicn it win oe interesting o men
tion, rotating to the toooery,' 'disorder, and,
despotism -w hich racked the State when.fully
exposed to the power of rreoonStracti6n,' and
the peace; economy, and Tevlrioft prosperity
which have - followed in ihe train. of the ton-,
servative victory In 18G0, the Virginia address
advises that' there te no change in the politi
cal' organization which 'accomplished that
desirable change, and that, without reference
to any of the distracting issues Of Federal'
politics,- the people of .Virginia support a
purely State policy, tending to "the conser
vation of .the power of the State in conser
vative bands." The Alabama address even
more pointedly eschews national politics by
not even vouchsafing so much as a word to
those issues, and simply invites all opposed
to the present corrupt and inefficient State
government to unite on a basis of economy,
honesty, Bhd good order for its overthrow.
The Louisiana address ' declares that' the
State debt has, under Radical hands, in
creased from twelve to eighteen millions of
dollars; that the taxes have been raised to 5
per cent., "touching the limits of confisca
tion;" that the most enormous monopolies
have been created, and unheard of special
privileges granted to individuals; and that to
avert the entire financial and political ruin of
the State it is necessary that the management
of its affairs should be ' wrested from 'the
characterless interlopers now in power and
committed . into the hands of true repre
sentatives of the people-1 Those gross rob
beries which have made the State bonds all
I rut unsalable in the market,, and loaded the,
taxable property of the State with unprece
dented burdens, are referred to in Florida"
Ss rendering 'a' change in affairs absolutely
necessary to avert entire ruin; and in the
Texas address even a more urgent necessity
for the reformation of the reconstructed Gov
ernment is made manifest. By a law just ap
proved it is shown that the Gavernor is not
only authorized to declare martial law in any
county or counties in Texas at his mere will
and pleasure, but is authorized to raise a
large army in three corps: first, a State Guard
of ten thousand cavalry; second, a battalion of
mounted detectives; and third, a "reserve" of
something like fifty thousand infantry; the
two former bodies of troops to be immedialely
oi ganized and kept on foot. ,J';!" "
With this . necessarily meagre - review of
some exceedingly interesting descriptions of
the interior condition of the South, it is to
be noted that, above and beyond all else,
these addresses eschew Federal politics, re
fuse to discuss negro suffrage, have nothing
to say about the fifteenth amendment, avoid
free trade, protection, foreign policy, general
finnnrn. or taxes, and devote themselves
resolutely, as the Virginia address puts it,
to "a State policy free from outside influ
ence or intervention." Deliver us from the
body of this death, the reconstructed Slate
governments, seems the universal animating
spirit; and bevong this the documents do not
go. Just as the North Carolina conservatives
put forth no declaration of principles, erected
no party tests, assumed no distinctive organi
zation, but simply went into the canvass and
carried the election on the sole issue of put
ting the State in the hands of the people of
the State,, the conservatives of Alabama,
Texas, Virginia, Louisiana, and Florida take
"it as a sufficient platform that taxation shall
not be in such hands as make it organized
robbery, or the State government be so con
stituted as to be by the necessity of its exist
ence "a standing conspiracy against the
public peace."
tio exclusive au auonuon tooutie an airs, so

Utter a lacK cu luiercoi iu gtmerui puiiucs, is
sadly saggeBtive. It seems to say that the
South is so horribly misgoverned that it has
no thoughts from home; that its patriotism,
i like John Randolph's, does not extend be
yond the State. Whose fault it is we know;
and perhaps there is a retributive vengeance
in the fact that this very exclusive devotion
, to State affairs, .- brought about by a long
course of ageression at the hands of the
' could be devised of wresting the control of
the South from that organization. The South
once lost,' the negroes outvoted, or under
conservative influence, and the radical party
is irretnevaoiy gone. ,
THE NATIONAL LABOR CONGRESS.
.From th$ A. Y. Herald.
The National Labor Congress has just
closed its annual session in Cincinnati. Dele
' gates were receivea, committees appointed,
speeches made, and resolutions submitted. It
. is the same old routine year after year. Last
. year we bad a similar exhibition. Then the
eight-hour law and the necessity of having a
separate political party were the . principal
subjects of discussion. Now it is Chinese
labor and political reform, but particularly the
. latter. It is remarkable, too, that the same
orators and reformers play the principal parts
year in ana year out. we nave the 1 revel
licks and the Troupe, the Coffins and the Cam-
erons, the Macs and the O s; and so they run,
Theories, grandiloquent and profound, are
presented to the delegates and endorsed
unanimously. It matters not what question
s a. a t ai ' v
is uuten up oj tms annual Liabor Congress,
cient to show that it has some direct bearing
on the labor question. The most diflioult
questions of finance are explained by
a committee oi men wno perhaos
never gave the subject an hour's close study
in their lives. In very fact there is no
question in which the Government of the
country is concerned but what the National
Labor Union believes to be its mission to in,
terest itself about. There is no denying the
fact that the good government of the coun
try is a matter in which every citizen is con
cerned; but that it is the special province of
the leaders of trades unions to attempt to
take the matter in their own hands, it is didi-
culous to think of for a moment. But might
it not be well just now to inquire for what
purpose were the representatives of the car
penters, the tailors, the bakers, the black
smiths, the Btone-masons, the laborers,
and all the other tradesmen of this
country, sent to attend the sessions
of the National Labor Union? Was it
as workingmen or as politicians the trades
unions sent delegates to this annual gather
ing 7 it would ue wen 10 nave a direct nn
derstandiog on this point. We know very
well that from most, we might say all, of the
trades unions or the country, political ques
tions are excluded during the meetings of
those bodies. Political distinctions are not
, kuoan within the pale of these organizations.
and if their success can be set down to any
particular cause it is to- this more -than to"
any other. If, then, ! trades Juaionists
do' not permit the discussion of politi
cal: subjects within their associations, tow
ia It ithat ithfse bodlesX when; represented
by delegates in oonventiJv lose eight of the-
Erinciple which the subordinate unions ever
old in view? Let us glance at some of the
subjects which were brought before the Labor
Congress, ; puch questions as these: Fi
nance,' standing armies, pensions, Indian
affairs, the shelter" of, foreign, vessels .under
the American Sag, military service, and, the
arolitfon of military schools.
These are the
sublectfl of Some of the resolutions offered
Anting the late session of the Labor Conven-
lion. Now it is ail very well for the delegates
of the workingmen to understand all about
these things, and it is hard to expect them to
conceal their light under a lmshel;.but the
, trades unions which'' send these delegates t6
the Labor Congress have a right to expect
something different. They might with jus
ticeexpect that their representatives 'should
o to work in' a practical manner and take
into consideration matters having a more
direct bearing on the labor question. Far
suing the course now adopted, the leaders of
the labor movement stand very much in dan
ger of bringing themselves into contempt. It
is impossible that they can accomplish all re
forms at once;, for pity sake let them leave
something for the next . generation to puzzle
itself over. , ;
, REPUBLICANS AND THE PARTI. ,
FrmtkeX.Y; tHbuni. '; , : V 'j I j .
' "We do not ' think it is assuming too much
when we say that probably no party has ever
been governed so much by its principles and
so little by selfishness as the party, that has
ruled the country during the past decade. We
do not deny that there have been Republicans
who have loved its patronage more than its
faith; neither do we deny that there are, and
have been, Republicans true in the main in
principle, but fickle and spasmodio in their
action. It is, perhaps, to these two classes
that we owe many of the recent efforts to sap
and mine the party." Some who have had an
inadequate idea of its' purposes 1 and, duties
think it has accomplished its mission,- and,
eager for change, and thirsting to be , leaders
in new movements, make haste to pull down
the pillars of the temple to clear the way for
their new creeds. 7. ine principles 01 the lie
publican party have -become- history. The
platforms of parties are not always a true test
of them. , When a great faith is in the soul
it shows itself, as - opportunity offers, in
works, and the Republican party has to - offer
the country a republio preserved, slavery
nhnllnried.. the reDnblic reconstrnatnd in
peace, great highways of commerce ' built
across the country, a homestead law. and
many other measures of justice and progress,

T 1 i m .a
country much actual reason to complain A
new currency has been created which has, had
to struggle under the . disadvantages, of
credit sunk by a great war: Jbttt. which has,
even under - tnese adverse - circumstances,
offered the country what it never had before.
a uniform currency. ; When thei public credit
has risen . to par, so will the. ourrenoy based
on it rise. We have no longer a wretched
system of local and State banks, whose notes,
when taken, at ail at the other end of the
country1 from that which'' issued them, were
taken at a tremendous discount. Money was
scarce, and publio and' private enterprises
were incapable of the great efforts they now
exhibit. The recent great development of many
portions of the country was simply impossi
ble under tne oiu system, -
At the close or a wasting war. " a tariff.
which in no inconsiderable degree met the
approval of the constituent elements of the
party, raised for the uovernment a revenue
unprecedentedly great, and anorded inciden
tally a .moderate protection. : No mode of
meeting the publio burdens was so free from
objections, whether the question of economy
or efficiency be considered. It is possible
that some branches of manufacture might
have profited by greater protection, and the
country been, in the long run, benefited by
their prosperity; but the ground chosen
seemed to be the most suitable to meet the
conflicting views of the different portions of
the party. , By the redaction of as muoh of
the internal revenue system as those who
were at the helm thought could . at , this time
be safely spared without injuring the na
tional credit, the party gave an implied assu
rance to the country that as fast as practica
ble its entire machinery would be abolished.
Is there, then, any party in : the country
prepared for free trade,, the abolition of
revenue from that source, and . saddling all
the publio burdens on direct taxation? We
do not believe it. Neither do we believe that
any very large element in the Republican
party has made up its mind to any such pur
pose." What then? Are the efforts to divide
and break the party in power en this issue
merely efforts of the enemy to sow disoord
on a point on which there is known to be
some difference of opinion? We will neither
be so harsh or uncandid as to charge any
persons or organs of the party with such a
motive. We do not think the most deter
mined of them has matured a system of
opinion on the subject, much less, that this
was done in a malevolent spirit.. At the
same time we believe that there has been an
unwise recklessness, and that indiscreet
friends have attempted to sow within the
party the seeds of mischief.
It has been doubted by the enemies of re-
Enblican governments whether parties could
e made the custodian of a governmental
policy. . The government is really a creature
or exponent of the party which placed it in
power; and in all governments there must be
a careful and wise balancing of' conflicting
opinions. Are parties capable of making these
judgments and sacrifices? We think they
are. we think so far the Republican party
has done it, and done it wisely. Nay, we fear
the chief reason for picking bones of conten
tion is the erroneous idea that the party has
closed its work. Yet there is no party to-day
which has a task so important or principles
so coherent. But half of the mighty work of
organizing the republio on a basis of freedom
is done. Can its completion be safely left
te the enemies of the system ? The flippant
enemies of the Republican party talk myste
riously of finance, but they are neither ex
plicit in their own views nor intelligible in
their criticism of ours. If we wish to fund
our debt at a lower rate of interest, the most
sensible course is to prove that we are able
and willing to pay our debts. That is just
what Grant and the Republican Congress are
doing.
A PERIOD OF TRANSITION.
FnmtMN. Y.Time.
Southern papers which call themselves con
servative are engaged in what must prove a
useless discussion as to the organization and
name of the national party hereafter to be
arrayed in opposition to the Republican.
They asnert that the Democratio party, in the
shape we at present find it, possesses far
more elements of weakness than of strength.
especially at the South, and that it i ba I

ple, it is asserted. Were , so, strOngly opposad

jom it,MtO -openly act 4 with it. We Can
readily understand the feeling which would
cause an ardent Whig of former days to re
coil tram th Democratia. organization, area
Vfter .so Jong" an interval, especially when we
recall the fact that in most or its essential
features , the party creed remains essentially
1 f Another objection, stren git 'urged, is that
by its record, previous to and during the war,
the Democratic party made itself permanently
odious to the loyal whites of the South, very
many of whom still hold it largely responsi
ble for the disastrous results .1 which have
followed. They argue with much force that
but for the sympathy and anticipated co-operation
of the Democrats of the North, the
Southern leaders never could have led the
people into actual rebellion. They were as
sured by prominent Democrats that, there
would be no actual resistance to secession,
"but that after a few months of exoited negotia
tions the South would be permitted to ;Vo in
peace.". So widely was this delusion spread
among the Southern masses' that the seoes
sion leaders were able to overcome the ap
peals and influence of the. loyal whites. It is
now asserted that those men will not ally
themselves with a party ' which has injured
them so deeply. , .
But chief among all the objections which
are urged against the Democratio party at the
South, is that it cannot hope to get the vote
of the freedmen. Southern politicians know
that class too well to indulge in any hope of
loading the negro into the ' Democratio ranks.
The idea would - be preposterous. The
Southern 'negroes avoid Democracy, almost
upon instinct.' They know the party to have
been the most lmpiaoaoie enemy or every ex
pedient tending to ameliorate it he; condition
of their race; that it steadily opposed emanci
pation, and as steadily resisted , the work of
reconstruction. It is folly, therefore, these
Southern conservatives assert, to expect that
the present generation of blacks will aot with
a party at whose hands they have suffered so
much as from the Democracy; ' " 0 t j
t The three classes we 'have mentioned, in
addition to, the 'present white Republican
vote, form a majority in almost every South
t-rn State, and would be sure to control the
elections under ordinary ciroumstanoes. 'The
recent usurpations in North Carolina. have
caused an exceptional 'election, and similar
circumstances will . probably effect a similar
result in Georgia, and perhaps in some of the
other States. Very soon, however, the
bouthern people will discover that the ag
gressive policy which so exasperated them
was not really Republican, but was forced
upon us by a radical wing of the party, whioh
thought more about gratifying a seotional
prejudice than of settling a national Republi
can policy in the future. When they discover
that fact, the people of the South will proba
bly take up their political position regardless
of extreme counsels on either side. f01d
prejudices will gradually die away, and new
party lines will be established at the South
- We do not believe, however, that the ex.
isting parties will be essentially changed,
either in organization or name, - for many
party, which has recently been so cautiously
organized at the South,- win prove but a .tern
porary affair. ' It has already served its pur
pose, and when the national canvass of 1872
is fairly organized, it will be silently merged
into the Democratio party, and never again
heard of." Meanwhile, the Republican party
will doubtless lose some strength at the polls,
by its means, bnt only during the approach
ing elections; afterwards it is pretty certain
that it will emerge upon a broader platform,
and, with a truly national policy, will continue
to guide the policy of the country for years
to come. ' ' 1, ,..'.',''.?
Democracy is distrusted and repudiated at
the South because of its record. At the
same time it is undergoing a transition at the
North preparatory for the new role it is about
to take in the future. It is striving to cast
off the accumulated odium of a decade, and
to conform to the political necessities whioh
its shrewdest thinkers now see are inexorably
crowding upon it. The party may or may
not be brought to accept the new policy, but
we have not so poor an opinion of the Ameri
can people as to suppose that a devioe so ob
viously insincere will beguile them into ob
livion of the past, or into confidence concern
ing the future. . ' "
