Movements of the Presidential Party.

RALEIGH, June THE President and
party attended the commencement exercises
of the university of Chapel Hill yesterday.
They were escorted from Raleigh by pro
cession including the scholars and officers OF
the institution and the governor of North
Carolina. A ball was given by the gradual
ing class, attended by portion of the Pres
idents party. They left Chapel Hill this
morning on their return trip, and were every
where received with marked respect; all
public demonstrations having been as calm and
composed as those of the north on reception
occasions. The excursion so far has been
pleasant to all concerned Maj Gen. Sickles
and staff, and Gov. Worth accompanied the
party back to Raleigh. The President will
leave for Washington on Saturday afternoon
PETERSBURG, June THE President and
party arrived at O'Clock this evening on
their return to Washington, having been es-
corted thither from Jarret's depot by Mayor
Colder and the Common Council. The
Mayor renewed the tender of the hospitali-
ties of the city. The President, while CRATE
full for their kindness, regretted that his pub
lie engagement compelled him to decline the
desired sojourn, as business required his re-
turn to Washington. A large concourse of
citizens at the hotel received the party with
repeated cheers, and the President having
been called for made few remarks.
The party remained an hour at Petersburg,
and received marked attention. They will
remain at Richmond tonight and leave for
Washington Saturday morning.

White Slavea

The time is even now at hand when the
taxpayers of the country will inquire what
political party is responsible for the enor-
nous debt with which the nation is loaded,
and which is bearing with heavy weight on
the business interests of the people. The
radicals say the debt was caused by the war.
If we admit this, and say nothing about the
corruption and Encouragement which wick
edly and foolishly made the debt twice as
large as an honest and skillful conduct of
our finances would have made it, the ques
tion occurs. who were responsible for the
war. On this point let the New York I1i-
batne speak. Mr.. Greeley, in his latest con-
test with Mr.. Weed, discussing the condi-
ton of the country and the general state of
feeling among the people in the winter of
l860-6l, says:
"Stocks were falling, business paralyzed local
elections going against us in northern communi-
ties that had just given large majorities for Lin
coin, and all industrial prospects shrinking at
the prospect of vast civil war. IF poll could
then have been taken ON the question, the free
states would have given a popular majority for
the Crittenden compromise. 1t was our task to
stem this heating torrent and save the nation
from committing a great crime. We did this
perhaps not so wisely as another might, but with
such wisdom as we had
The adoption of the Crittenden compro
mise would have averted war. Mr.. Greeley
says the people of the free states wished con
| gress to adopt it. That body chose to defy
the sentiment demanding peace, and plung
ed the nation into war.
Here, then, was settlement proposed
| which would have been acceptable to both
| north and south. The republicans in con
gress refused to accede to such a settlement
The war followed, and on it's heels followed
| the vast accumulation of national and state
| Indebtedness.
Radicals boast of the fetters they have
| stricken from the limbs of slaves. They
have forged fetters for every white and blacl
man in the country who is dependent on hi
| labor for support. They have imposed bur
dens on capitalists which will greatly dimin
ish their power to pay wages to laborers.-
They have rendered doubly difficult the &C
cumulation of property because of the take:
they have imposed on the earnings of th'
| people. They have multiplied the prices o
everything the workingman is compelled t.
purchase, and laborers working under these
disadvantages are brought into greater com
petition with each other than ever before.
Such are the fetters the ruling party hav
placed on the workingmen of the unite'
| StateS. lhey are as aDSolute III ueprFih:
them of the fruits of their labor as were tn
slave codes of the south in denying to th
blacks the fruits of their toll. 1t is the meres
fustian to pirate of freedom and independence
of will when crushing poverty makes the Ia
borer the dependant of the employer. Thi
is only now beginning to be felt. AS tn
currency shall be restricted, and bushes
shall return to its natural channels, the bul
dens of the public debt viii be more heavil
felt, and the struggles of the poor for subsis
ence will be more earnest and painful.-Ch

Chief Justice Chase, radical though he is,
has actually given decision which makes
stealing unlawful, even though committed
by "loyaT man. Chase is going back
ward, unquestionably; he is relapsing into
fogyism he is away behind his party's no
tions of progress" Such a decision, coming
from the highest judicial tribunal in the land
must canse a profound sensation of uneasi-
ness among a very large class of men who
afortime, regarded stealing as a virtuous vo
cation, provided the thief was "loyal," and
the thing stolen was the property of rebel
a rebel sympathiser or 'copperhead." We
shall now expect to hear the radical press
denounce Chase, much in the same style
that they have denounced Greeley
