as members Of their State LEGISLATURE Every.
thing seems TO invite their emlgrahon to ths domi'

strife as TO their government. Who that w0u q

Will not object to IT, 1t will pace the negroes Voun-

remain here am sure North Catohna VIII no'
object to this scheme"
No doubt, the refusal of such proposition as
this would be quoted as a proof of the hostility
OF the North TO the freedmen, and its uu willing
ness 10 receive them a. citizens. Governor
Worth knows better than TO suppose that the
United States is to become an emigration
bureau for the removal of four millions of peo-
ple. He knows very well that II Is not its busl-
ness to transport laborers from one State to
another and equally well that its legislation Tor
the freedmen has been intended for the protec-
tion OF its citizens on the soil where they stand
and in the homes they have chosen. If the
freedmen OF North Carolina choose to come to
the North, that is their business, not Governor
Worth's, nor that of Congress- and it is only the
duty of the United States Government to zee
that wherever they go or stay they shall not be
the victims of unjust local laws.
That is all, and that is enough for an impair
tial Government, except in the special aid it has
extended through the Freedmeu's Bureau to the
poor people whose necessities the Southern
States are unable to relieve. But discussion OF this
subject is unnecessary. When Governor Worth
says 10 his Legislature, 81 respectfully recon-
mend that you propose this plan of national
reconciliation to the Congress Of the United
States" we remind him that North Carolina is
not in a position to propose terms, but to re-
ceive them. And ii the Governor is really foolish
enough to forget the decencies that should con-
troll a State so lately in rebellion against the
Union, let hlm, at least, propose his plans with
show of good faith, and without a useless
afrectation of satire

"The Chicago Tribune" VS.. "The New
York Tribune''-JOurnalisti Kilkenny
Cats-Mr. Greeley for Senator.
From the Chicago Tribune.
The term of the Hon. Ira Harris, United
States Senator from New York, expires on the
4th of March next. The duty Of choosing his
successor devolves on the Legislature of that
State at It's session this winter. Among the
asprants for this Office are Judge Harris, Gov
eruor Fenton, Hon. Roscoe Conklng. George
William Curtis, and Horace Greeley.
Though Mr.. Greeley has seldom refrained
from meddling with the domestic affairs of Re-
publlcans in other States, TO their detriment
and his own, we would not undertake to advise
our political friends of New York upon a matter
peculiarly their own, did not the general inte-
rests OF the party demand OF us a few plain
words. The Republican party does not exist
and have power In the state OF New York alone;
indeed il is one of the regrets OF the times that
il requires the most extraordinary efforts to
retain the ascendancy OF the party In that State
by majority equal TO that gwen IN single
Congressional district in the Northwest. Re-
publicans all ever the country have, therefore,
a deep interest in an election which may have
serious and unfortunate con: :equences to the
party generally.
Horace Greeley has not now, and never has
been, man who ought to be trusted with an
official position requiring practical wisdom
ordinary craftsmanship, or nrm consistent
action. For twenty-five years he has been q
Marplot in council, an unreliable commander
in action, a misanthrope in victory, and q
riotous disorganizer In defeat. He has always
been fanatcal in his demands for the EXTREMIST
measures, and when the party has reached the
eve of triumph, invariably tbrusts himself for
ward as a nePotiator of terms OF surrender TO
| the enemy. His course during the war was but
| repetition OF his course IN politics. In 1861
he was On open defender OF secession: he
| changed to vigorous champion OF the war,
