W SUN USD AT MOKNINO, AUUlET 12, 1877.
- TboAuburn(Alubama),corrwpondent
of tho Now York Day Jiook, castigates
tho gentleman from Maine, most se
verely in his luttor of last wuuk :
Tho occurrences at Woodstock, Con
necticut, on the Fourth of July, aro in
structive. Ills have no Fourth of July
in the Suuth. That day, like the birth
day of Job bus bocomo hatuf til to us.
Lot It "Krish," and "be darkness."
"Let darkness and the Bhadow of
dcnlh' stain it," so long as, liko Job,
the South sit J "down among the
ashes." We mado tho Fourth of July ;
began it in old Meeklouburg, North
Carolina, and finished it at Yorktown,
and put tho cap-stone on it at Phila
delphia, on the 17th of September,
1787. It was our birthday I JVoic, it
is "diatoyul" for a Southern man to ut
ter the trntimrnts of (he Declaration of
Colonial Independence, and if ho should
dare to do so at a Fourth of July
mcotingof Hadicals in tho North, ho
would bo hissed and hooted at, and
denounced as a "traitor I" For at
tempting a practical assertion of the prin
ciple! of the Revolutionary era, tho South
ern Status have boon subjected to a.
most cruel and devastating war. Tho
flower of their manhood and youth hns
boon cut down with tho sword. Their
proporty destroyed. Their Colds luid
wasto. Their temples and houses
burned down. Their women outragod.
Their gravoyards desecrated 1 Sixteon
years of bloody persecution and worso
than vandal outrago have only whut
ted the appetite of such fiendish mon
sters as Jim Blaine, such human blood
hounds as Chamberlain. Hayes is set
upon for having a man's heart In his
bosom, instead of that of a demon. It
is with these, his crimo that ho would
plant flowers upon tho graves of his
slaughtered countrymen, and guard
them from tho depredations of such
hyonaB us they aro.
No Southern Stnto did every provoke
tbo war upon herpooplc. It stands
tho ovorlubting conilumnati'in ot her
murderous invaders that the South
iciia ever faithful to our Constitutional ob
ligations. Sho at no time and in no way
inflicted a wrong of any sort upon her
porfidious Northorn Contedoratos. Tho
gonitis of hatred itself has novcr dared
to impeach her good faith by tho'im-
putation of a solitary act or that remot
est purpose of 'njnry to any Northorn
Stuto or citizen. No ono of tho illus
trious citizens of Sothorn States who
havo adorned tho rrosidontial office
noithor Washington, nor Jofrerson,nor
Madison, norMonroo, nor Jackson,nor
Polk, nor Taylor, nor Tylor not ono
of them ever proposed a measure of
government which couM injuriously
affect the rights of any sort of person
or property, of any individual citizen
of a Northern Stato, or the rights,
dignity or charnctor of any Northorn
Stato. No Southern majority ot the
Senate or any committee of the Senate,
no singlo Sonator of any Southern
Stato ovor suggested or voted for any
policy or measure ol government in
jurious to tho rights or character ol
tho Northern people Tho samo may
be justly said of tho House of Repre
sentatives and its members.
On the' othor hand, it is true thut
Northorn States, Trosidonts, Con
gressional Committoos, Sonators and
Representatives, did porsistontly vio
late ilieir Constitutional obligations, did
wago a ccaBcloss war opon the proper
ty rights, the prosperity and character
of tho Southorn States and pooplo.
They defied the Constitution, and dis
regarded tho laws ol Congress passed
in pursuance of its provisions. Tho
Suprome Court was not respected.
Tho North systematically pursued tho
most selfish policy, insisted upon ex
clusive intorosts, plundered Southern
labor to build up local industrios and
enrich hor capitalists. Tho laws of
Vermont and Massachusetts, making it
a highly penal offense, punishablo with
long terms in the penitentiaries, and
oxhorbitaut fines of thousands of dol
lars, foruny porson who should attempt,
even under the authority of the Fed
eral Constitution and laws, to retain a
fugitive "slave" for rendition, the utter
rejection ot the doctrines and duties
asserted by tho Drod Scott decision,
tho open declaration of Mr. Lincoln
and his party, that tho Southern "slave
holder" should not carry his "slaves'1
into tho common territories, that
"slavery" should be restricted, and tho
plain intention to ultimately abolish it
in tho Statos, with the consequent wur
of coercion, tho final abolition ot "slav
ery" and tho brutal, wicked, cruel, ty
rannical system and processes of "re
construction," proclaim, with tho voico
of a thousand trumpets and of "many
waters," tho porfldy and Injustico and
cruol dispositions of tho North towards
tho South. TAi'j is the truth of historv.
which no man can gainsay without avoio-
ing himself a fool or a liar and a slander
er! If wo could forgot this frightful
past, and fraternize with theso faithless,
Pharisaical fanatics and fratricidal
fiends, how can wo shut our eyes to
such deliberate declarations of hostili
ty to tho Southern pooplo as tho lato
speech of Blaine and Woodstock con
tains? Blaino, drawing the conclusion
of his own false heart, discredit the de
claration of Hayos and his Cabinet,
that tho ohjoct of government in Its
orders to protoct our Southwestern
border from Moxican raiders, is not to
annex Moxican territory. A liar and
a thief himself, he imagines such mon
aa Evarta and Schurx to be no bettor
than ht Is. With him "all men are
villains," and as Dr. Johnson said, he
is a good judgo of one man." Ho is a
guilty coward, and quails before tho
consolidated strength of the sixteen
Statos that were lately "slbveholding."
"This," he says, "is a tremendous po
litical force, embodying almost ono
half the Scnata of tho United States,
more than one-third of tho llouno of
Representatives, and almost two fifths
of the aggregate Electoral College."
Wlion be says tho aim of the South is
to wield this "trcmondons political
forco" with "the unity of a political
despotism," and with a view to a "per
manent domination in the government
of the country," he simply lies in his
thronl Tho South has no aims "out
sido of tho Constitution," no policy but
one which looks to the peace and pros
perity of every swlion of this great I
country. Her heart Is patriotic, her
"head level," and if hor hand is strong,
it is so for tho common weal, and to
crush the viperous traitors who, like
the iiif'umoui Jim Blaine, would fire
the Tumplo of Liberty fur an inglori
ous immortulity. Tho Suuth has never
linen tleunntirnl Site tlMrVrlirt, rtftiiro
rights under the Constitution. Evor
ready to portorm her duties In good
faith, sho demands an iinpartiul ad
ministration of the government, in the
intercut of tho wbelo country, and
under tho sacred guarantees of tho na
tional "compact."

IJVi Y TUE SOVTI1 IS A T PEA CE
Wo are glad to see tho South kept
free from thisconfliet, which isdostroy
ing business in tho North. Deploring
such conscquonccs anywhere, we may
feel deeply gratified that we are com
paratively frco from disorder, crime
and violence. Wo must suffer to somo
extent, but there aro many reasons
why the South will not be seriously
affected by theso troubles. Tho hard
school through which we have passed
has taught tho South economy and selt
relianco. Tbat was tho first great
lesson, and wo resisted it as long as
possible. Tbo Southern people are
nearer out of debt than evor beforo in
the history of this couutry. As an
agricultural pcoplo tho proportion of
those who produce the necessaries of
life is very large. Wo lack an elomont
ot prosperity in lacking tho luborint;
population of tho North, but in luck
ing it at such a time, wo lack an elo
mont of temporary weakness. In
prosperous times they contribute to tho
well-being of society by furnishing a
market. When times are hard and
tbey are out of work, they become
consumers only. Then they uro only
a drain.
An agricultural community can al
ways stand panic, failure, depression,
war, any misfortune better than one
of commercial and industrial popula
tion. o aro solf sustaining, we can
if need be almost live within ourselves,
and ovon prosper. Thoreforo, while
deploring tho trouble which has fallen
upon our neighbors and brethren, wo
should also look to sco if we may not
reasonably hopo that wo may bo spared
any groat suffering. Of course
in tho gush of restored fraternity wo
are ready to walk with our brethren
through tho fiery furnaco and puss
through tho valley of tho shadow of
(loath, if necessary, it wo can't help it
But then we would prefer to bo spared
additional suffering. Wo havo had
enough of it, and if wo can sco our
way clear to oven profit out of tho
misfortunes which wo liuve had nothing
to do with, then wo must, as a duty to
ourselvos, go on building up our lines
of trade and our own manufactories
and becomo solf sustaining, and oven
furnish our suffering brethren with
supplies at thnso remunerative prices
which men aro constrained to exact.
Temporary stagnation, in some chan
nels of business, wo will feel in the
South, but there is nothing in all this
to alarm tho South. If tho troublo is
remedied it will bo tho restoration of
a prosperity in which wo will share.
If it goes on wo will acquire new aolf-
rolianco in adjusting our business to
meet it, and become daily ntoro self-
supporting.
Tho laboring men should seo that
they do nothing to retard a prosperity
which thoy will share, and tho strikes
and riots in the North cannot prevent
it. If they will madly cut each other's
throats, wo aro sorry. We give them
our sympathy, hut let us decline to en
gago in the business we bavo othor
work to do. We have a great and
glorious Cold hero which will bear a
good harvest fur all in a very short
time. Kashvillc American.
In bis forthcoming book Jeff Davis
will assail (ion. Joo Johnston bocause
he didn't tako Washington. Wo think
the majority of Amoncans will be
more inclinod to endorse Johnston.
Tho New York Herald's Long Branch
correspondent thinks that Grant's
presence at that placo was worth to it
1500,000 a season, and his absence is
that much of a loss. Sad, oh sad.
If it's true that (ion. Suhenck op

"Burying the hatchet" is all right,
but when it is buried in a man's head
there is something to be said on tho
other side.
what mi aii na doxk ton
LABOR t
The restoration of luw and order
throughout tho country, after the most
widespread and fornilduble upheaving
the country has every witnessed, must
direct tho attention of overy sincere
r It. hf'
turbauco and the proper remedies u
bouppliod. The clans of average idiots
who are usually first heard on such
disorders aro ready, on tho ono side,
to call for a standing army and a swift
bullet and keen bayonet against riot
ing laborers, and 6n the other aide, for
u national1 bureau and practical parti
tlou of property with those who prefer
lawlessness to lubur. All suuh will
bavo no voice in the solution of thu
grave problem suddenly presented to
thu American people.
There are some sell-evident pooplo
of our industrial disorders which must
bo louked squarely in tho fuco. Tbey
ore
1. We havo a millionaor moro ol
honest, willing laborers, eiiihracine
pooplo in all pursuits and grades of
business, who cannot now obtain em
ploy men t at all; there aro not less
than a million who bavo but partial
employment and most inadequate pay.
and there are a million more struggling
against adversity and want from day
to day in vain efforts to muko their
business remunerative.
2. juo uiiiioaitny iniluiion ol war
gathered thousands of skilled laborers
in manufacturing and mining centres
becauso thoy wore needed and could be
well paid. With whul seemed to be
substantial prosperity, luxury grew up
to didtouipcr labor, and idleness sowed
its seeds in thoughtless hours. Now
tbo stimulated lido has fallen ; trade
has ebbed back to its origiuul channels ;
mills have stopped ; furnaces havogone
out; forges have been silenced ; mines
havo been put on half production, and
operators and transporters aro in
bankruptcy or struggling to oxist with
out tho hope ol interest or capital.
Tho laborer remains, and labor has
vanished. There aro two or three
men for every man's work, and tho
little that can be done, must be, done
at starvation prices, and there is tho
discontent that is bred by despair.
3. There is no hopo of permanent
employment of our now idle labor in
its present localities, at any lime in tho
near future. This vital truth must ho
ignored. Theorizo as thu wittiest of
dreamers may, tho whole surplus rov
onues of tho railroads and other corpor
ations of all kinds employing labor,
even under tho most economical direc
tion, would not givo wages to the sur
plus labor in our cities and once pros
perous industrial centres. A million
mon who were only consumers during
the war, are now producers ; the in
calculable waste of war is ended, and
sovero economy has taken the placo of
profligacy in both publio and private
circles.
4. There can bo no permanent relief
for surplus labor until itshull bo diffus
ed and diversified. There are ton
tuousaud more adult men and women
in Philadelphia to-day, who have lived
by their industry, than can be employ
ed cither now or under any ordinary
condition of things during the next
ton years. There aro ten thousand or
more in tho anthracito coal region who
cannot hopo to find labor at living
wages during tbo present generation ;
und so it is in tho manufacturing por
tions of tho State, and throughout tho
whole bituminous coal section. Agri
culture is tho only pursuit that can
now employ its full complomont of la
bor, and machinery is yearly lessening
its demand fur laborers. There are
certainly fifty thousand laboring mon
and their families in Pennsylvania who
muBt bo diverted into other pursuits,
or to virgin fields of industry before
they can hope to be prosperous. Tbo
samo is true, to a greater or less ex
tent, of all Now England, and the Con
tra! Slates from tho Atlantic to tbo
Mississippi; and the fact that it ia true
of Indiana and Illinois, where thore
are cheap and fruitful lands on which
tho laborer can always live, proves
how skilled labor and its attending
unskilled associates, prefer to suffer
and starvo in their desolato shops and
mines rather than accept a now occu
pation. 6. Tlioro must bo a remedy. Tho
intelligent, honCst labor of the country
wants not platitudes no Communistic
eloquence, nor tho up rooting of our
social system ; but they do want
Work. They cannot bo supplied by
privato ontcrpriso, for it is paralyzed
and capital bos fled from disordor.
They cannot havo it directly from the
government, fur that would bo the end
of both labor and govornmont. They
cannot subsist on charity, fur the
efforts of the charitahlo would bo un
availing to food the tens of thousands
who cannot now find employment.
What, therefore, shall bo done for la
bor?
Much may and must bo done in every
community whore thore is enforced
idleness. It is a duty that will plead
its claims as never beforo, as the au
tumn frosts lull of tho coming winter
with its nnspcakablo sorrows to the
poor, r.very person who bos labor to
be done, oven it tho necessity shall not
bo immediate, should have it done now
to tho full extont of his ability to pay
for it. Noedod improvomonla of all
kinds can now he dono moro economi
cally than ever before, and labor can
thus be saved from gnawing want and
humiliating dependence. This is a
duty that nono should disregard, for
it will pay in dollars and cents, and
give broad to the helpless. Lot not
each apply this rule to his neighbor.
Lot all, bowevor limited his or her
means, understand that the call Is to
every one who is blessed with the abun

Tho government can and must turn
from the needless reduction of tho
publio debt and quicken the Industry
that is the fountain of our national
wealth. Thore are public Improvements
on hands in nearly every city.and olhor
legitimate and nocessary improve
ments in various sections of the Union.
Thoy can be economically prosecuted
with vigor now and do much to revive
the languishing labor ot the country.
So much is a plain duty, and thore can
be but few who will not favor Its
prompt and generous performance.
The government should do more,
and could do it with safety under pa
triotic, enlightened and conservative
statesmanship, but it cannot do it with
the poison ol the Commune pouring
into the heart ot our flee Institutions.
It wants no National Bureaus; no
Labor Cominiuions, no new fields for
tho demagoguo and tho lobbyist, where
corrupt capital can was' v away liberty

Labor cannot be multiplied in
over-populous places by legislation. It
must be created by oponjngnew chan
nels in which it can be diffused and di
versified, and by such wise measures
as will inspire tho trust of capital lor
reasonable profits, and tho hope of la
bor for adequate wages.
Meantime we beg labor to be faith
fill to itself; faithful to liberty, law
and peace. Let It discard as its dead
liest foes tho rant of the agitator, the
plea of the adventurer and the promise
of the destruction!, for labor can
prospor only whon capital is safe in its
guardianship. Philadelphia Times.
THE ROCK OF OUR DEFENSE.
Since tho administration inspired
the communistic plank in the Ohio
platform, the tide of the dangerous
elements sets strongly toward the Re
publican party. In tbetr desperation
and impending defeat the Radicals are
ready to co-oporalo with any allies or
Incorporate into their platforms any
ideas, howovordestructivo they may bo
of government and civilization, in the
hopejthat by this they may gain a now
lease of power. Novor in its history
waJtho Democratic Conservative party
charged with graver responsibilities
than now; nover was its duty more
clearly defined. It must preserve our
constitution and our laws, and all that
is worth tho having in our civilization,
defending them against the threatened
dangerous centralization upon ono
hand and agrarian communistic mob
rule on the othor; forit happens now,
as often before in history, that these
two seemingly antagonistic forces are
working hand in band for some pur
pose. 1 he same dangerous elements
that are at war upon capital, sympa
thising even thoplunderingsand burn
ing, aro demanding that tho railroadt
be wrested from private proprietorship
and run as government institutions,
and demanding further that all de
partments oi business Bhall be placed
under administration control. Oo the
othor hand, capital in some of its de
partments is demanding a "strong gov-
eminent" to hold down disorder by
overwhelming military force. Mr. Jay
Gould shrieks. "A million dollars for a
king I" Capitol wants centralization
for one purpose ; the mob wants it for
smother; and the administration has
given sufficient evidence that it wants
it fpr its own purposes. It is now the
grand function of thi democracy to
stand like a wall of adamant betwoon
centralized despotism upon the one
baud and anarchy and communism
upon the othor, and to preserve our
institutions as thoy aro, our personal
liberties and rights of property. It
must atand like a rock rooted in the
firm soil of constitutional law, and
furnish a rallying point for all lovers
of our republio to gather to its dofense
fixed column amid the welter of
uncertainty. The strength of the
country is with us, The communistic
and centralizing features ot the Radi
cal party, while tbey may win votos
of one kind, will lose votes of another
kind. The "labor plank" of Mr.
II ayes and Mr. Stanley Matthews is
not only demagogic and wickod, but
foolish. The most influential portion
of the Republican press condomns it,
and It will drive out of the Republican
ranks those who formed its strength
and stay. Tbs time is not far distant
when lovers ot representative govern
ment in tho North must throw them
selves into the ranks of tbo conserva
tive democracy, and when they will
thank God for the "solid South" that
will stand in imponotrablo phalanx In
support of tho constitution. It is vory
probablo that olhor Republican con
ventions will follow the lead of that
of Cleveland, and under tbo inspiration
of thut adminislration put forth agra
rian and contralising platforms. The
delusion will run its wild and reckless
course. But the duty of the Demo
cracy is the model that should bo taken.
It simply says "The destruction of the
industry ot tho country and pauper
izing ot labor are the inevitable fruits
of vicious laws enacted by the Repub
lican parly." It proposes no quack
remedies ; puts forth no false ideas. It
simply places the blamo upon the pro
per shoulders, and insists upon the re
turn to the old methods as the only
way of safety and prosperity. Its only
anchor and hope is in going back to
the old paths of cheap government, re
trenchment, honest administration, and
legislation for the benefit of Ike pooplo,
instead of special legislation for corrupt
rings and lobbies. In this alone is
safety. The Democratio party is now
the conservator. It carrios the repnb
lio and all its fortunes.
