that their fair talk to us is due simply to
their practice of using words in a sense
of their own, differing from ours. Now If
they will say frankly, "Your social and poll
tcal theory we will never adopt" they would
not only do a manly thing, but would do
much to clear tho public mind on both sides
of the line. Instead Of this, they pretend to
adopt 1t by kind Of equivocation.
What we know of the nature of the South
ern view OF the negro's place in society we
learn not from the speeches of the Lees, and
Stephenses, and Beauregards, but from the
practice of the mass OF the community, aud
the State papers of the Governors and other
public men; from the black codes of many Of
the States after the war; and from the actual
legislation of Kentucky, which, not having
been touched by the reconstruction process,
gives us an idea of what would be done all over
the South were it not for radical intermeddlinp.
There the negro is literally an outlaw, is de-
pendent for lite and limb on the humanity of
any ruflian whom he chances to meet-his evi-
dence against white men not being received in
the courts, or at all events, counting for no
thing If it is received. Evidence of this kind,
not being prepared, is worth volumes OF
addresses and conversations with dstin-
guished Southern statesmen. There are,
OF course, the same things to be said
against negro suffrage that are to bs said
against all voting on the part of iguorant

not finished the argument. You have still to
show how it would fare with the ignorant
man if he were deprived of the right of voting.
In highly civilized and highly organized COM
munities like New and Old England or France
and Germany, where respect for life and pro
perty has become a habit of the popular
mind, and where the law is executed
with certainty and despatch, a non
elector may, and does enjoy security and
comfort. He does not impress his opinions or
wishes on the policy of the State, but he
is sure of justice in the courts, aud
of the aid of the police against his
enemies. He is not asked to rely on the
pity, or even on the kindly feeling, of his
neighbors for protection. Now, no honest
Southern man viii pretend that the negro at
the South will ind the same justice aud the
same protection If LETT entirely in the hands
OF the Southern people that poor white men
do. There is prejudice against him at the
South; there is contempt for him; and there is
also habit of showing prejudice and con.
tempt by acts of violence which the courts are
not ready to punish. On these points We do
not need General Lees opinion. We have
the facts before us every day in the newspa-
pers; and what we want to know of General
Lee is not whether he loves the negro and
wants peace, but whether he is willing 10 sub
init to the conditions imposed by the conquer
ing party in the late war-one of which is the
acceptance and embodiment in the law and
practice of the land of the Northern theory of
society and government

encroacbments upon the rights OF

are now made against President

he and Henry Winter Davis, Of

Mr. Lincoln persisted in recogniz-
ing those shadows Of governments
in Arkansas and Louisiana which
Congress formally declared should
not be recognized" They affirmed
the President to be resolved that
the people shall not by law take any

That Is, that negroes arc only allow

From the Omaha Daily Herald.
In view of the fact that something less
than twenty-three thousand loyal scriblers
are engaged in the laudable task of attach
ing notOriety to every movement and in
cident in the career Of the bondholders'
candidate for the Presidency, have de-
cided to relate the following incident fer
the benefit particularly Of the Ledger
readers, who, owing to the peculiar nature
of the affair, will scarcely ever be favored
with an account oft from his paternal an
cestor through the columns of that worthy
sheet.
On the evening of Sunday, after the
firing had ceased at Shiloh, and Buell. had
disposed of his forces for the work of the
succeeding day, he, for the first time ex-
pressed desire to see General Grant, and
an aid being dispatched, that officer, at
tended by few members of his staff, made
his appearance. Grant, apparently un-
steady, and this time minus the everlasting
cigar, Buell. almost bursting with indigna-
lion, drew aside from the mingled staff,
and motioned Grant to follow him out of
ear-shot, when the following colloquy las
reported by two reposing soldiers, one of
them drummer in an Ohio regiment, and
an intimate acquaintance Of mine,) took
place:
Gen. Buell-"Well, sir, is this display
of your Generalship; two-thirds of your
army retiring since daylight, being almost
massacred by superior enemy, and the
remainder wandering leisurely along the
banks of the Tennessee % (alluding to Gen.
Wallace's division, which comprised nearly
oue.third of Grants army, and had not
seen the enemy during the day.
swell, General" replied Grant, 81 did
the best l could was not expecting this
attack, and Wallace has neglected either to
move on the enemy's flank or come to my
assistance"
Gen. Buell-"You we're aware of the
proximity Of the enemy; why did you dis
patch Wallace on a wild-goose chase while
the enemy was concentrating in your front
Besides, sir, Gen. Wallace denies having
received any orders from you during the
day. And now, Grant, if that is the best
you can do, God help the soldiers placed
under your charge, for from what can
see you are not worth the powder that
would blow you to hi"
Buell., unable to control himself longer,
turned and rejoined his staff.
The above facts are as we'll known in the
Army of the Tennessee as the names of the
actors themselves.

THE uAMILwoN.BURR DUEL.

Nathaniel Pendleton, the grandfather Of
George II. Pendleton was an intimate
friend of Washington and Hamilton. He
attended the latter to the fatal field of
Weehawken Heights. The biographer Of
George II. Pendleton thus refers to that
tragic affair which put the nation in mourn
ing for one of its greatest and most honored
citizens
In 1896, the grandfather Of George H.
Pendleton moved with his family to the
city of New York. The strife of parties
about this time, when General Washington
was retiring from the Presidency, became
exceedingly warm and animated. Mr..
Nathaniel Pendleton was an adherent of
the Federal party, and a strong personal,
friend Of Alexander Hamilton, its leader
and exponent. l
When Mr.. Hamilton became involved,
in 1904, in the difficulty with Aaron Burr,
which terminated in a fatal duel, he APP
piled 10 Mr.. Pendleton TO be his second in
that tragical affair. The latter accepted,
and accompanied Mr.. Hamilton on that
memorable 1Ith of July, 1904, to Hoboken
Heights. There they met the hostile party,
Colonel Burr and his second, Mr.. Van Ness.
ton. 1t was won by Pendleton
An account of the duel given by Mr..
Mr.. Parton, Burr's bigographer, says
As Pendlelon gave Hamilton the pistol,
he asked, " Will you have the Eair-spring
set
"Not this time" was the quiet reply.
Pendleton explained to both the princi-
pals the rules which had been agreed upon
with regard to the firing. After the word
present" they we're 10 fire as soon az they
pleased. The seconds then withdrew to
the usual distance. "Are you ready p
said Pendleton. Both answered 10 the
affirmative. A moments pause ensued.
Burr raised his pistol, took aim and fired.
Hamilton spraDg forward, reeled little
toward the Heighis, at which moment he
involuntarily discharged his pistol, and
then fell forward Cpon his face and re-
manned motionless upon the ground. His
ball rustled among the branches seven feel
above the head Of his antagonist, aud four
feet wide Of him. Burr heard il, looked
up and saw where il had severed a twig.
Looking at Hamilton, be beheld him fall
ing, and sprang toward him with an eX-
preston Of pain upon his face.
Mr.. Pendleion raised his PROSTATE friend.
DR.. Hosack found him sitting on the grass,
supported in the arms Of bis second, With
the ghastliness Of death upon his counte-
nance. This IA a mortal wound, Doctor
be gasped, and then sunk away into a
swoou. The doctor stripped up his clothes,
and saw at glance that the ball, which
had entered his right side, must have Pene-
trated a mortal part. He was taken 10 the
boat and conveyed to his home.
Soon after recovering his sight, he hap
Pened TO cast his eye upon the case Of pls-
tolls, and observing the one that be had IN
his hand lying Oh the outside, he said ;
''Take care Of that pislOli 1t is nndis-
charged, and still cooked it may go oil
