Tildcns Disloyalty." J
Tlio Oilgensburg Journal of Thurs
day nays:. "Sonio unscrupulous par
tisan recently doiueil that TiMen ro
fusiecl to sign , the call for the great
Union meeting in New York in 18G1,
but Gen, Dix has- milled that point
by writing the fold ing, which gives
information within his own knowl
edgo: Seafield, Fort ITamtton, July 187G.
Dear Sir : Yours is received, and
I hasten to reply to it. Mr. Tildeu
did not unite m the call for tho great
Union meeting in New Yftrk after the
attack and surrender of Fort Sumter.
But ho refused to attend it, though
urgently solicited to by one of his ow n
political friends. The meeting "was
called for the purposo of sustaining
the Government, and to provide for
sending troops to Washington,, which
was thought to bo in danger of an
attack by the Confederates. This fact
was publicly stated when Mr. Tilden
was a candidate for Governor in 1874.
I am, dear sir, truly yours
John A. Dix.
W. E. Webster, Esq.
The New York Herald thus rebukes
tbo Democratic blather about the
"Radical oprcssion" of the South :
"It is with surprise that we Bee the
Courier Journal follow after the v bay
ing pack of wild newspapers who be
lieve that the election of Tilden Is
neces3ary to "save the South from
Radical oppression." There is no
Buch thing as Radical oppression. The
Republicans, as a pojty, stand with
the . Democrats. They Lave never
ceased to hold ont to the South -the
hand of malignity and friendship.
There is nothing that Tilden, an Pres
ident, could do that Hayes could not
and would not do. But the Southern
men insist upon regarding the Repub
licans as enemies, as men pining after
their goods and chattels, as laboring
' to build up a governing class of ad
venturers and negroes to rule over
and plunder, them. -There -has been
a good deal of this; but who is to
blame? The Southerners provoked
a policy of repression, and that policy
Has been enforced. They have striven
steadily to bring the Union back to
; what it was before the war. ,vThe Re-
ftublicans have defeated this in legis
ation as thoy did in' arms. It has
been a losing game. - It is unjust to
ray that the Republicans fid not wish
to act with the old Confederates. The
truth is, when an old Confederate
acted with the Republicans, he was at
once hunted out of Bociety. Take the
7 -case of tb celebrated General: Liong-
Btr - ii was good enough to com
mand a great army under Lee, but as
be professed bis desire to act with the
Republicans, he was. outlawed. The
same may be said of General Mosby,
who was good enoueh to command
oavalry guerillas for Lee, but who, as
Boon as he supports the Republicans,
Becomes iniamous. t
"Considerinr? that but for thn in
strumentality of Samuel J. Tilden it
, js not liKely . that any , of the suits,
either civil or criminal, .against Wm.
M. Tweed wouW ever have been suc
cessfully Drosecutcd. and that Mr.
.Tweed night to-day haye been one of
our Citate senators. ", - ; -
The foregoing paragraph, clipped
from the New York Am nf thn 11 it,
ult, really is too good a hit to be left
to the obscurity of that paper, and it
is here reproduced for tho amusement
of our million readers. As a bit of
sarcasm it is unsurpassed by anything
lately produced, even in the most able
xvepuDiican journals, and is a valua
ble acquisition in the rulitiea.l market.
as a direct thrust at tho old festering
sore in the bodv-nolitio of the Demnn
racy. With an exhibition of eelf-sac-
rifice Mr. Tilden must havo mad!
How the milk of human kindness
most have flown from his lar?e. een
erous soull to thus nerve himself
ODenlv to denounce his most, iniimutn
- w a u it vJ
"pal" in their wholesale robbery of
.new lork. And to think that the
moving of the deep waters of his con
sciencesall for the sake of reform
and for justiceshould have saved the
country from the Rid spectacle of a
convicted thief in the Senate of the
State of New York. To those (and
who does not know of it?) familiar
with the demoralizing' facts of the
combination under Tweed, Tilden,
Hall &Co., in their huge frauds upon
the treasury of New York ritv n.I
State, this keen, relishablo satire of
uio cbiet Democratic organ will be
fully appreciated.
la a recent speech, Zebulon B.
Vance, the Democratic candidate for
Governor in North Carolina said :
"I am Borry that I laid down my
arms in 18G5; I am in favor of re-enslaving
the negro, and if that cannot
be done at once, my idea id to adopt
a plan which will bring about such
a condition of things. I would de
prive the uegro of educational privile
ges; I would pay him low wag8; I
would prevent him from reouirin
real estate , . I would deprive him of
aruii, aiuuniuon, stoclt, .and : agricul
taral implements."
General Sherman's modest and re
tiring behavior reminds the London
Tinted of tho Duke of Wellington's
during the lung peace.
