The Code.

We hope the Code will be pushed through
the Legislature as fast as it comes from the
hands of the Commissioners. 1t will appear
at glance how unwise and impracticable
it is to begin altering and amending it. It
is complete whole, and you cannot take
away any one part of it without destroying
all the rest. Let 1t be put into practice at
once, and then, where it is found to work
badly, let the Objectionable features all be
taken out and new forms adopted. The
delay about the Code is not putting the
Commissioners to any trouble. 1t only ex-
tends the term of their Office, and only pre-
vents the new and cheap legal processes of
the new system from going into operation
sooner. 1t is a mistake to suppose that the
Code Commissioners are making laws.
They are only arranging in convenient form
laws already in force, for which we would
have been compelled to search statute book
after statute book, and the old Revised Code
to boot, to find. The people are anxious to
see how the new laws" are going to work
Let them be gratified. And especially
would we warn members of the insinuating
address and argument of Conservative law
yers in the Senate and House, who will be
almost certain to stick block in the Ma
chinery to prevent it from running, if they
are allowed to change the Code as it comes
from the Commissioners
fit he true, as reported in the New York
Tribune, that Andrew johnson has ordered
the removal of the troops from the States
which are represented in Congress, there is
pressing necessity for hurrylng through
the police bill, and organizing a loyal mi
itia.

Brevet Democracy.

We had a peep into the rules and regua-
tions of the Democratic party the other day,
and found the standing of the Conservative
party. We were at loss to know how il
was that this party having no natural eris
tence was admitted into the New York Con.
vention to help declare war and nominate Sey,
mour and Blair, but it is all clear to us now
We find them described as DEMOCRATS by
BREvET, kept to do the dirty work without
pay-a set of slow down fellows"-and COM
PEELED to occupy the back seats. Who ever
thought the descendants of the noble old
WING party would come to this

Social Equality.

The Democratic papers of the country in
general, made terrific cutlery about social
equality" and endeavored to make great
capital out of it both before, during, and
after the late elections. Among other
charges brought, was this, that by letting
the colored people join the Republican po-
litical organizations we were giving them
social equality. Latterly, we notice this cry
has diminished, because the rebels are try
ing their utmost to put the colored man on
tile same kind of social equality" with
themselves 1t is amusing to read how
proudly the Conservatives mention the col
ored individuals By name, whom occasionally
they seduce into joining their Democratic
clubs, and they blow, as only rebels can
blow, about hundreds" aye, thousands"
leaving The loyal League" and joining the
Democratic (alias rebeD leagues and clubs.
We simply "laugh consumedly,' as we kno0
these statements to be false, as in many
places where these large accessions are said
to have been made. and "hunGreds and
thousands" mentioned as having so joined,
that number does not exist in the localities,
even if they took the whole " Loyal League"
In a body, unless, indeed, they count wo-
men and children. So that the rebel axiom
on the subject of "social equality" appears
to be that 1--WE rebels may have colored
people in our clubs and leagues, and it IS
not "social equality" by any means, but if
you Radicals let them join your leagues, it
is " social equality" &c. In point of fact,
what is fish in one case, is flesh in the other.
Because the Republican party believe in
giving the colored man his rights as citi-
zen, admitting him into organizations where
he can hear the true merits-of the political
situation, and where he is capable, giving
him Office, lis called " social equality" But
when the rebels endeavor to seduce the
colored man and get him to join their Or
cations, they never tell him the true and real
object of the party. They never tell him
that the issue is really whether he shall be
dsfranchIsud and declared incapable of eveI
holding any office, or of being as he now is
a responsible citizen, with fair start in the
lace of life, ard an equal chance of obtain
ing its prizes.
We suppose our rebel friends will begir
the same line of writing again after the cleo
ton, when the ballot-box will have shown
the utter fasity of their assertion as to tho
number of their converts, from the progress
sive party of great moral ideas to the rebc
one now fast sinking into its grave, unwep1
and unregretted. -..

The State Police,

1t is an old adage that an ounce of pre-
ventative is worth pound of cure. With
thoroughly organized police, we need fear
no Instruction or resistance to the admins
tratIon of justice in the State. But without
police, these riots and disturbances will
come as certain as the sun shines. And af
ter they have once been commenced, as they
arc likely to be in Cleveland, Sampson and
Mecklenburg counties, who can tell where
they are going to enI9 They will end in

only be when on duty. This will be rare, as
their presence will be sufficient to overawe

The advertising sheet of Wilmington
job Printing Office printed by Virginia
carpet Dagger, and called the Morning Star
to evade the prepayment of postage on his
circulars, republishes the lalsehood that Gen.
Grant said in Il speech in 1861 that he was
Democrat and that every man in his Re-
siment was democrat and says:
''1f this man Grant had been possessed of
either brains or self respect he never would
have allowed the use of his name as a Presi
dental candidate"
If this Virginia carpet-bagger had been
possessed of either brains or sclf-respect he
never would have used such language in an
advertising circular.

The Sentinel has not yet corrected its false
statement that Gov. Holden had appointed
colored man Mayor OF Hillsborough. Gov.
II. has not yet appointed any officers for
that town.
Gov. Fl. has appointed Justices of the
Peace for about eighty Counties, and officers
of various towns, cities and corporations.
He is appointing loyal and capable men,
and it will not be long before the entire
control of public affairs, from constable to
Governor, will be in honest, loyal hands.
He made this pledge to the people, and he
intends to redeem it.

A Deserved Compliment.

We learn that the Hon. DAVID HEAToN,
the accomplished member of Congress from
the Cd Congressional District of this State,
has been designated by Speaker Colfax as
member of the regular Committee on Elec-
tons, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
resignation of Judge Poland, of Vermont.
This appointment to one of the most i'm
portant committees of the House, is one
warranted by Mr. Heaton's ability and long
devotion to the Republican party, and a
handsome compliment to bis State.

We observe that the Senate has ousted
from their seats the Senators from the l2tn,
22d, and 41st districts, on the ground thaI
they are banned by the Howard amendment
and have not been relieved. This is ali very
proper. But how is it with the Senator from

by the Howard amendment. We respect
fully suggest that the committee on PRIV
