Morton of Indiana, delivered in Washing

Issues of 1868 7" t}tsfsa 20 ep s1
= These issues have been most forcibly sta
ted by Gov Morton The views taken by
him are the only safe views for the country

controversy The loyal men justify the ma
tion in suppressing the rebellion; the dis
loyal seek to justify the South, and express
regret only at their failure to destroy the.
nation. AS Gov Morton truly observes.
"all the questions with which we will have,
to deal in the contest of 1868, will be but,
emanations from these two leading ideas.p
We shall have no peace, no prosperity, NO
well-grounded hope for the future, until the
national idea shall have thoroughly prevail
ed. The triumph Of the nation will have,
been In vain if the States are not restored
on a loyal basis, and so fixed in this respect.

RALEIGH, N. C., WEDNESDAY,,


The Sentinel, like poor Martha. is so
"troubled " about many things" that it
knows not what first to attend to. In one
breath it assails Gen. Miles, because he tells
the truth and is true TO his government; in
the next, it dilates doletully on the organi-
zation by order of Gen. Candy ola loyal
local police to make its friends keep the
peace and cease robbing and numbering;
in the next. it despairs OF Gen. Grant, be-
cause it finds that he too loves his country
as Gen. Miles does, and approves the recon-
struction acts; in the next, it sings 8 hark
from the tombs y over the prospective
action of our loyal Constitutional State
Convention; inthe next it advises its friends,
whom its wicked war policy has ruined, to
take the bankrupt law, and then advises
them not to take it, because few persons
may receive fees from them in so doing
Poor Sentinel! AS Mr.. Van Bnren once
said on another subject, its "sufferings is
intolerable." 3U+..ig- ,et is #
The Sentinel intimates that there are per-
sops peculiarly interested in forcing every
man into bankruptcy, who are too selfish
to consider the interests of Others" and adj
vises those who contemplate bankruptcy not
to take the advice of such persons. This
does not apply to any persons or Officers
with whom we are acquainted. We make
it point to give no advice at all on the
subject, unless particularly asked by friend; ;
and then we advise no one to go into bank
ruptcy who can possibly meet his obliga-
tions. We regard the law as a benefccnt
one n many respects, but we should regret
see it perverted or abused. In many cases
it is the only refuge left to the unfortunate
from the pressure of debts they can not pay.
In such cases something is due to wife and
children, and to others who are dependent
on the debtor. The amount allowed to the
bankrupt may enable him to keep home
for distressed family, and afford small
beginning in the renewed efforts he may
make for Il competency. The release thus
given him from his debts is merely legal,
not moral. He is as much bound in honor
as before to pay his just debts, and if he be
an honest man he will do it, if he should
ever be able. We know men who in 1S42
took the benefit of the law, and afterwards
paid every cent they owed; and we have no
| Inuht thar Such will ke .ha caca with ,oapv
under the present law.

The Anglo-Saxon spirit is up, and as in
the history of the past, everything inferior
must succumb before it Sentinel.
/: So we have understood. THIS spirit was
'up' in Wake County in the last campaign,
and it has gone so far up that the people
have lost all palpable trace of it. The " An
glo Saxon spirit was never so commended
as in the recent elections in this State, and
the result was the Obstructives were defeat
ed by five to one. Let US have little more
of this spirit" 1t is a good thing with
which to defeat rebels. By the way, how
ever, will our disconsolate neighbor of the
Sentinel explain what this spirit is No one
seems to know.

The Sentinel continues its ill-natured
filings at low whites" who belong to the
Republican party. The answer is that the
lowest white Republican in the State is the
superior in every sense of the Editors of
that journal. Are we understood They
are both cuntemptlble traitors and enemies
TO their country. Their miserable lives,
which were forfeited by their treason, were
kindly spared them by the country, and
they are now showing their gratitude by
.stabaing their benefactors, the " Yankees
and our native white Republicans. The
Senior Editor of the SsntiheI is especially
responsible for every outrage and murder
committed by9order of Davis and Vance.
forhe bounded on the human devils who did
these things, and now seeks to cxalt someof
them to places of trust and power. Let tie
old hypocrite go on in his vile course, He
is hardly worthy of notice at the hands of
the loyal among us, who constitute in all
respects our best people.

The Sentinel, in a long, lugubrious notice
of the appointment of loyal local police
for some of the Eastern Counties, among
other things equally unfounded ard unjust,
makes an unfounded statement in relation
to the Sheriff.lty of Richmond County. 1t
says. & '''.
The same lawlessness may soon be ex-
pected in the County of Richmond. Some
time ago the Sheriff was summarily re-
moved, as usual no reason being assigned
for his removal, and another 5appointed.-
The new appointed, gave no bond, and be-
ling q native, could not take the test OATH
Nevertheless, he was installed in office
and continues to act as Sheriff. An Off
Ger sent over there to inquire whether a
man could be found to take the iron clad
oath, reported that none such could be
found" b.
The Sheriff of Richmond resigned, and
the County Court could find ND one who
could give the bond and take the oath. The
office, therefore, remained vacant until Col.
COgswell, who then commanded that post,
the subject, and find, if possible. some one
who could comply with the requirements. OF
| the law. No one could be found The
commander of the post neither summurily
removed the Sheriff of Richmond, nor fail
eel in his duty as to a successor to that officer.
Richmond is now included in the post CON-
mantled by Col. Bomford, and we have heard
the runior flat lie has rendered the Sheriff
| atty of the County to citizen of Wake.
The Wadesborough Argus also, in an
article commending Capt. Mcfarland, does
injustice to Col. Cogswell, in relation to
some colored people who applied to him for
relief while commanding at Fayetteville
These colored men walked from Wades-
borough to Charlotte, thence to Salisbury,
and thence to Fayetteville to make an apl
peal for justice against certain white men
who had oppressed or wronged them Col.
| Cogswel did not take action until after
| proper inquiry, and in taking action he was
careful not to trench upon the authority OF
Others 7
| The State has had nc officer who has per
formed his duties with more ability and
frmness than Col. Cogswell. No post was
ever commanded in a better manner than
the Fayetteville post, while he was at the
head of it. We wish all our post comman-
ders were just such officers as Col. Cogswell

The Judgeship...Mr. Toursee.

The Sentinel, the rebel organ OF the rebel
Governor OF this State, Jonathan Worth,
makes characteristic attack on A. w.
Tourgee, Esl., of Guilford. because he has
been recommended to Gen. Candy for the of
flee of Judge.
1t seems appointment was rendered to
Mr.. PJindexter, who has declined it. Mr..
Poindexter, though loyal to his issovernment,
can not take the test oath, because he sat in
his seat in the Legislature, as many Union
lists did, after the State had commenced its
revolt. sae
The Sentinel says:
We do not know Tourgee, but his entire
history, since he has been in the State, so far
us We are informed. has been destitute of
any reoecming quality. We learn that his
political friends. who are entitled to respect,
denounce him in no unmeasured terms, and
we have yet to hear the first gentleman, of
any party or position, speak well of him. =
To have "A man of doubtful reputation TO BILL
IA Judgeship in this State, wolld be regard
ed. by the people at large, as one of the
most degrading and offensive indignities
which could be put upon them. If tue pub
lie estimate, which has been put upon Mr..
Tourgee, in this State, is not wholly at fault,
we do hope that Gen. Candy w. not APP
point him." esst a tsr eHf
In the first place, no one can have "any
redeeming quality in the eyes of this rebel
newspaper who is true to the Republican
party; in the second place, Mr.. Tourgee's
political friends" haze not denounced him,
but on the contrary, have honored him with
seat in the Constitutional Convention; in
the third place, he is as much 6 gentleman"
as Jonathan Worth, or any Of his associates
and advisers.
1t is cowardly insinuation to say that
