MIL SHARPE AND THE AFRICAN.
We condole with Mr. Sharpe. He j
unbosomed Lis grief to the Democracy on
Tuesday evening last in the Court House, I
and the dark spectre • of the African was
omnipotent in his remarks. His whole
t'rame vibrates and trembles at the appre
hension of negro equality. He confesses
himself so poorly endowed by his Creator
that he fears some stalwart, long-heeled
woolv-headed and perfumed African may
equal or surpass him in his profession, make
his rhetoric pale on the stump, jostle him
in his inordinate ambition for Congressional
honors, and may even ride in the-same car,
i bow down in the saaiechurcb, worship the
same God and finally turn up in the same
locality where future rewards and punish
ments are dispensed by infinite justice—ail
because of the Freedmen's Bureau and
[-Civil Rights bills,
| We can render to our stricken ami sor
rowing fellow-townsman an indefinite
I amount of sympathy. Since it is his mis
l'ort unc to Ire unable to cope with the down
trodden and oppressed African in the race
for social, political and religious honors, he
is surely entitled to protection. How it is
I to be given, we can't exactly divine, but it
uiu-t be had. But for the fact that Mr.
Sharpe preeniptorily forbids any amendment
of our constitution lest rebels should be
somewhat inconvenienced for their rnurder
i ous treason, we should join our afflicted
fellow citizen in demanding our organic law
to be so chanced as to provide that no
' person or African or mixed blood shall ever
I learn more of law, politics, religion or social
graces than said Sharpe ; that no such
person shall travel in the same vehicle or on
the same road, or, if need be, in the same
direction with Mr. Sharpe ; that no such
i rs >ij. even to the fourth mingling of Afri
can and Southern Democratic blood, shall
kneel in the same pew, supfflicate the same
throne, or go to the same heaven, with Mr.
Sharpe, and that no such person shall
intrude upon his social circle, bow to him
on the street, or marry any of his relations.
It is a sad, sad story that Mr. Sharpe is
helpless to protect himself aganLt the
aggressions of a degraded race, but sad as
it is, he pronounces it no less true, and his
infirmities appeal to the law making power
of the nation, in mute but most pathetic
! eloquence, for protection. Sleeping or
waking, the African haunts him as a trip
ple headed giant with moanjUtins of wool and
most threatening ambition. Sharpe might
point this hideous spectre to the bleaching
oones of its fellows in Memphis. New Or
: leans and elsewhere, but the dry bones seem
to rattle new horrors in his ears, as he pro
test- with heavy heart and tremulous tones
against his unequal contest. Living or dead
the African is before him. His ghost will
j n't down however bidden, and his dusky
person and presence greet him on the street,
m Lis office, in his study, in his social circle,
j in his praises and prayers, and even about
his allotted tomb. In life the African is
about bim. in perpetual conflict for the
mastery in learning, honor and fame, and
even in the dark valley of the shadow of
death, the negro will sleep with him, decay
into inanimate earth so that the stain of
caste will be obliterated, and when the last
trump shall summon all the earth, behold
there will be tbe African to cloud his spirit
land, and what is -adder still, there will lie
1 no appeal to the high chancery of heaven
against the harsh law of equality for all the
j people of the earth.
We do not produce this picture of consu
ming -orrow to Mr. Sharpe t<> inflict a need
less wound where there are gaping wounds
already; but we have drawn it to point the
imperious necessity of some high degree.
! some reversal of the laws of a common
Creator, to rescue Mr. Sharpe from tbis
mountau of grief. He might take up the
benlffcent policy of his political friends of I
Mi mphis and New Orleans, and rather in
the harvest of death while the African !
could be found in his path : but it would be
a? tediou- as bloody, and even hi- ruffled
ambition and wounded dependence might
weary and -k-ken of the gory carnival.
There is therefore no relief but in an appeal
to the law making power both human and
divine. They must be reversed. A new
creation must be improvi-ed for tbe purpose
and tbe line of distinction between the man
j and the brute must be marked up over the
heads of the sable part of creation. True,
: there might still be fear and quaking, for
unless the new order of brutes should be
bereft of their reasoning faculties, the next
-hadow in Mr. Sharpens pathway would be
the rivalry of tbe animal kingdom for his
honors. What then ? We are lost in the
bewildering mazes of this momentous ques
tion. It- misty labyrinths precede the c-ra
i die and reach far bevond tbe grave ; and we
can see no positive balm for hi- agonizing
fears but by reversing the court above all
created powers. This cannot be done by
Democratic mass meetings or resolutions,
nor by impassioned appeals to vulgar prej
udice Mr. Sharpe must, therefore, wale
through the Congressional c-onte-t with the
African confronting him at every step, in
every condition, and in every shape that
j fancy can suggest, and when he is defeated,
as he must be. there will lie the dark .-pectre
multiplied into an innumerable throng
chanting, in gbostlj-, ghastly and horrible
discord, the requium over his political grave.
—Courage, Mr. Fharpe ! There is One
whose attributes are measured by no human
conception, who in life and in death will
deal justly wit h all. In the fulness of time
prejudices of the ignorant and vulgar will
fade away, and with them will perish tbe
fears which sec in to make life intolerable to
ambitious Democratic politicians. The
negro will fiii his sphere—will cease to be
i hated by those who have only wronged hirn,
and will be judged by his m rils and useful
' nc.-s as other men. He may not vote, or
go to Congress, and physical laws as well as
instinct forbid hi- mingling with his nale
. -ed oppres- lis. save as Slavery has bru
talized the master and pirostituted the slave;
• but tbe time is nigh at hand when to
declaim against an ignorant, helpless,
degraded race on the plea of possible equali
i ty. will, as itdc-eives, class the deelaimer
as beneath the level of tho.-e whose endow
ment and progress he effects to dread.
Mr. Sharpie should appreciate the fact that
the world moves : that some things are best
lo beforgotteu, while some other things are
best to be 'earned. He and his terrible
African will both !>c wiser by and by ! and
| the wiser they grow, the less they will fear
each other ! — Franklin Repository,
THE REPUBLICANS AND THE
TAXES
In the mid.-t of the clamor rai.-ed a-rainst
Congress for what it did aud that it refused
to do, there seems to be a disposition to
ignore entirely the fact that it reduced the
dome-tic taxation to the extent of some
i seventy five millions of dollars a year, in ac
! cor<l:ace with the reeca.mendationsof the
Revenue Commission. This fact is of quite
as much importance to the iua.-ses of the
people a.- the reduction of the principal of
the national debt; for the load of taxation
bad become too great for the prosperity of"
the country, and had not relief been thus j
afforded, the revenues wherewith the debt is
ing paid off would have fallen off so largely j
a- to arre-t the r duetion of the debt. Con- i
gn by abolishing the cumulative taxes j
that prey ed upon the very vitals of our f
manufacturing iudu>try ha- improved the
prospects of home labor and home capital,
-ecured remunerative employment to the j
po >r man and at the same time lightened
the burdens of ali.
It is true that the reduction might be car- ;
lied -further with benefit to the country.
But the Treasury Department was dc.-irou
that the revenues should not be seriously
impaired, and Congress acted with a due re
gard to the recommendations of the Secre- J
tary. It may be safely asserted that while i
the burden of the people Lave been thus
lightened, it has beetr done in such away
that the surplus applicable to paying off the
public debt may not he interfered with, nor
that great work inten upted. While there
fore. we give credit to the Administration
for its exertions to bring our finances back
to the prosperous solvency they once exhibi
ted, wc insist that the work performed by
Congress in effecting so large a diminution
of taxation is of even more importance, and
decrrves to be quite as weli remembered.
it was deemed by the Republicans in Con
gress the best plan to try this measure of
deminished taxation, and see how it worked
and what effect it would have upon the reve
nues, before going any further. At the
next session we cannot doubt that a still fur
ther abolition or reduction of taxes will be
effected, though not to so great an extent as
to impair the revenues, it being deemed best
to maintain these at as large a total as may
be consistent with the purpose of paying off
the national debt, without oppressively in
terfering with the business of the people.
As the task ofsimplyfying the taxation goes
on, it will wipe out many inquisitorial exac
tions, as the present bill has already done.
The same amount of revenue will be raised
from fewer sources, and by this means we
shall probably be able to get rid ot some of
the vast swarms of officials necessary under
the existing system.
It must be remembered that we cannot
hope to pay off the debt if, by reducing our
revenues too largely, we take away from
the government that surplus which is appli
ed, to the.work ol reducing the mountain of
debt. \ e cannot have at the same time a !
continued and large reduction of debt and a |
sweeping reduction of taxes. Our oppo
nents clamor for both, thougli any reasona
ble man may see that such a thing is im
possible. Congress has therefore, done well
for the government and the country. It has
relieved the people of the worst forms of
taxation, and those which most injuriously
acted upon our domestic industry, while it
has preserved the revenue with a view to
the continuance oh the work of paying off
the debt.
As tbe country increases in population,
and tbe south recuperates from the destruc
tive effects of the war. the revenues will
augment steadily even while weauually ligh
ten the taxes. The amount of revenue we
raise is not the evil to complain of though
democratic partisans stupidly hold it up be
fore the people as a heinous charge against
the Republican-. Without raising some
such amount, it is sheer nonsense to look
for a reduction <Ahe debt, and these parti
sans know it. We do not find the national
Administration favoring any reduction of
the revenues beyond that authorized by
Congress, and on this topic the Administra
tion and Congress occupy substantially the
same ground. There was no conflict what
ever between them on this point Congress
took counsel of the Treasury in framing its
tax bill and no more reduction of taxes was
attempted than the Secretary was willing
to allow.
Nevertheless, the primary credit of any
reduction of taxes belongs to Congress,
which body at the session of 1565 felt so
much impressed with this necessity as to
provide for a joint revenue commission, to
sit during the recess and examine the whole
subject of revenue and taxation. This
measure was wholly the work of Republicans.
The opposition would have preferred to in
crease appropriations, taxes and debts, as
that would make a stronger case for them
against the responsible ruling party. Such
has been the course of the Opposition
throughout the Republican administrations
of Lincoln and Johnson. If the dominant
party showed its capacity to subdue a gigan
tic rebellion and aboii-h the vast institution
of slavery, it has on the return of peace
-hown still more signally its ability o cope
with the great financial problem involved in
the mastery of our debt and currency. The
Treasury and Congress, ea-h in its way, has
done its allotted task. and so well that alreadv
our debt is reduced one hundred and twenty
four millions of dollars, and our load of tax
ation lightened seventy five millions, all in
one year. From this Jet the public judge of
the future. — The North American.
Till: PRESIDENT AS A LAW
BREAKER.
Who made the President the judge of the
legality of a State convention? When did
he hear evidence upon the matter ? Where
docs he get his authority interfering ?
By the Constitution, "the United States
-hall protect each State against invasion,
and on application of the legislature, or of
the executive (when the ' cannot
be convened), against "domestic violence."
Where was the "invasion?" where the
"domestic violence?" where the applica
tion of the legislature, or of the executive ?
Where was even the danger to the public
peace? A convention numbering tweDty
six men met in a hall in New Orleans. Was
it feared by the murderous mob, or by May
or Monroe, that these twenty six would
rise and put the whole order of Thugs to
the sword ?
Suppose the convention was illegal ; sup
pose it bad passed an ordinance, no matter
to what intent —what then ? Its orders
could have had no force. If there had
been a doubt upon their legality, they ought
to have beeD taken before the State courts,
whose province is to decide such questions.
If civil government is restored in Louisiana
according to the Peace Proclamation, if
Louisiana is a State, with a constitution,
laws, officers, courts and judges, then all
such matters must be settled and decided in
the State, by the State officers;and by the
courts, not by a mob. It does not escape
the attention of the Union loving people,
that every outrage like the New Orleans
riot, in the Southern States, is done in the
interests of opprc-sion, and against equal
rights and impartial justice, by men who
were but lately zealous and flagrant rebels,
and who continue to boast of their crimes
against the country and the flag. Wheth
er at Memphis or New Orleans, in Rich
mond or in Georgia, wherever we hear of
mob violence, it is the violence, the brutal
lawlessness of men lately engaged in an
attempt to destroy tlie Union ; and their
victims are men. women and children whose
loyalty to the Union was so active during
the war, that no hLtory of the war can he
written without recording their courage,
fidelity and self sacrifice. It is not pleas
ant to Union loving people to see the Presi
dent of the United States, no matter by
what accident or inadvertence, placed in the
position of giving encouragement to such
lawlessness, and making loss endurable the
sufficiently hard position of men who, with
him, are hated and reviled by the late reb
els as "Southern loyalists."— X. V. Even
ing Pott.
IxsniE Vitws.—Although through the
strictest discipline and expert management
the Philadelphia Convention presented a
peaceful surface, there was a stormy state of
things beneath. In the Committee on Reso
lutions and Address, there was a furious con
test. The session was an all-night one. The
hardest fight was in giving the new party its
name—"The National Union I'arty. - ' The
Democrats on the Committee threatened to
bolt in a body if the resolution restoring the
name was adopted. Mr. Cowan was unable
so pacify them; and ex-Governor Johnston
was equally powerless. An Alabama dele
gate struck a tragic attitude, brandished his
knife and declared he would rath r plunge it
into his breast than have the resolution adop
ted. Mr. Doolittle could not make the thing
go down, and finally en the motion of Mr.
Raymond, the resolution was withdrawn. The
Democrats thought it had enough to be over
slaughed and their party dismissed, without ;
the ostentatious display which the resolution
would make of it— and out of pity and for
policy the President's friends let them off ]
