THE TRUTH AND STUBBORN FAors.

/ The TRUTH AND STUBBORN FACTS.
Hon. B. 81. Hill, who is now in
Washington, recently wrote quite q
lengthy letter to the Augusta C1roni-
Gle, in which we find the following
truthful paragraph:
A long conversation which I had
with very intelligent Republican,
ended with this speech from him: "I
belong, Mr.. Hill, to the Republican
party, as you have seen. I do know
the masses of the Republicans do not
desire to do injustice TO the Southern
people. Our leaders told us these
harsh measures were necessary to
keep down the spirit of resistance at
the South. We are beginning to
discover that the Southern people
are willing to live by the Constitu-
ton, and whatever the leaders may
desire, the masses of the Republi-
cans will exact nothing more. We
are ready to repudiate the policy of
our leaders, but we do not like Demo
Gratis, and there is no third party.
Neither do we like Andrew Johnson,
yet L tell you frankly, we are troubled
with the thought that such bad, ill
tempered man rs Wade may possibly
take his place. 1t is difficult to see
what we shall do, or can do. but on
this you may rely: The masses of the
Republican party North will never
consent to force on the Southern peo-
pie government which we would
not accept for ourselves. I only wish
all the people, North and South, un-
derstood each other as you and 1 now
do"

Waiting FOR SOMETHING TO TURN
UP.-Lord Stanley, at dinner given
to the British Ministry in NIanches-
ter, said of the Alabama question,
that it "still remained open, but that
England had all along dealt with
America in friendly temper in this
discussion, and time was already
soothing the irritation which might
have arisen on either side of the
Atlantic. This is the present posi-
ton, then, of England on this case.
She is waiting on time, with the
question open, and supposes that we
are forgetting that there ever was
such ship rs that notorious British
pirate. Mr.. Seward, we must hence
suppose, has not recently logged the
memory of her Majesty's Govern
ment on this topic. Our Premier
holds that it is the part of wisdom
not to think too much, and this Ala
bama discussion is, perhaps, one of
the things he has laid aside as profit
less and vain; but when this weary
and worn-out old gentleman retires to
his home, as he will do soon, there
will be change in this respect and
England will find that we do not
forget SO soop.-NeaO York Herald.

AN ADAnssIoN.-The Syracuse Jour
nal (Republican) says that Governor
Hayes, the Republican Governor
elect of Ohio, congratulated the Re-
publicans, in speech made since
the election, npon their deliveranca
from the colored suffrage issue for
several years to come. The Journal
is of opinion that unrestricted colored
suffrage has been run into the ground.
If the North, with its small colored
population, long free, will not have
it, why be in such hurry to force it
upon the South, with millions of an
ignorant race just released from bond
age?

SOUND DOCTRINE FROM RADICAL
PAPER. New York Eyeninq Post
makes the following remarks upon q
point that has lately caused much
thought in this country:
The independence and rights of
the States are as absolutely essential
to its harmonious working as the su-
premacy, in certain respects, of the
Federal power. Without the indie
pendence OF the States, indeed, there
would be no security for individual
rights. Popular liberty is only up
held and made practicable by local
self-government. Forty millions of
people, which there soon will be
within our borders, cannot be con-
trolled from single centre-or will
be controlledas France is controlled
by successive revolutionary juntas,
ending in the strong man with the
sword. Call such n government by
what name you will-empire, mon
archy, republic or commonwealth
is ever at heart the same despotism.
1t cannot be otherwise. A power so
inordinate as that which would be
required to govern the United States
from Maine to Texas, from Sitka to
Florida, with their manifold, in
tricate, diverse and cumbersome in
terests, could only be welded on the
military principle. All civic life would
perish i'll it, either run into anarchy,
or be crushed by the iron hand of
force"

The PIcKESs RIor. An derson

Ihte1igencer, of Thursday, says:
"We have not ascertained any fur
ther important particulars concerning
the disgraceful riot near Hunnicutt's
Crossing, on Saturday night, 10Th
instant; The military has efficiently
assisted the civil authorities in MAX
ing arrests of parties engaged in the
riot. Among others, we learn that
Alex. Bryce, jr., of Walhalla, and
several negroes in that vicinity, were
arrested by the military and lodged
in the Pickens Jail. Upon aflidavits,
the civil authorities arrested Rev.
Elias Cannady, (colored,) of this
place, and he has been sent to Pick
ems for trial, as one of the leading
spirits of this horrible outrage. He
is Baptist preacher, and well known
throughout this section. A gentle
man, who left Pickens Oh Monday
afternoon, informs us that the grand
jury had found true bills against
seven of the number arrested"

NAPOLEON IN GERMANY.-Napoleon
and the Queen of Prussia. An
Historical Novel. By L. Muhl-
bach, author of "Joseph II and his
Court" frederick the Great, I"
etc. Translated from the German
by f. Jordan. New York: D. Ap-
pleton & Co.
This novel-the very latest produc-
ton of the ginnt mind of this talent
ed German authoress-de an
eventful era in the life of Napoleon
his invasion of Germany. The beau
tiful Queen of Prussia, the idol of
Germany, occupies prominent place.
There is wonderful fascination in
the writings of Louisa Muhlbach.
Dealing with great generals, kings,
queens and courtiers Of time long
past. she is thoroughly acquainted
with their manners and customs,
their laws and habits, their weak
nesses and crimes; and following
history in its essential features, she
weaves stories of life which have q
terrible power to fascinate; and we
are almost constrained to pronounce
them matchless-unrivalled in the
whole domain of historical romance.
This work is neatly illustrated with
wood cuts of the principal scenes and
events described. We nre indebted
to Messrs. Duflie & Chapman for
copy.
The WAIRING RAILKoADs.--Th
Charleston Mercury publishes in full
the opinion of Judge Moses on the
difficulty between the South Carolina
and the Columbia and Augusta Rail
roads, relative to the obstruction of
street in this city by the former COM
pany. The Mercury gives us the fol-
lowing paragraph, explanatory of the
opinion of Judge Moses:
"Thc decision is highly impor-
tant one. 1t declares that the public
highway said to have been obstructed
by the South Carolina Railroad is
not, and has never been, q public
highway; and it declares, also, that,
as there was no public highway in
question, the servants of the COM
pany committed no nuisance. 1t
RENTS the fines imposed by the City
Council, and it leaves the South Ca
rolina Railroad in the position in
which it was at the time of the inter-
ference of the City Council. 1t
acknowledges the right of the COM
pany to the use and control of its
own track-an use and control ne
cessary not only for the preservation
of the rights of the company, but
also for the protection and safety of
the passengers and goods which it
carries, and for whom and which it is
both legally and morally RESPONSE
ble."
