TROUBLE In THE JAC0BIN
CAMP,


OnlinOus Utteranees from the Man
that Gives Brains: 70 the Radical
Party.
Wendell Phillips has an article in the
New York Aati-Slauery Standard of the
18Th inst, in which he makes this con-
fession:
Seven States have been readmitted and
will soon take their places. No one claims
that they are ready or fit for places in Con-
gress But the Grant party needs them.
We sink principle and risk the negro in
order TO elect Mr.. Grant. Mark you, he
is 80 popular that there's hardly need to
count the, votes. Sill, we must risk the
presence of more Fowlers and Van Win
kles, and peril all the results of the war to
insure the election Of this marvelously
popular soldier And 30 Mr.. Greeley and
the Ladependent wheel into line. Every
politician must now wear gag until the
veto Is declared. How can we SO frame
our government that new York journal
ist can afford to tell US the truth to-day Of
Grant as frankly as he does of franklin
Pierce? Will the abolition of the Presi.
Gency abolish the quadrennial gags, this
intermittent hypocrisy! II 80 we duNOcatS
it. Better have slower and clumsier gov
eminent, if that will allow editors to keep
a conscience, and Senators to be honest
men. .
We might multiply signs. Everything
shows that the era Of toadies and place
hunters, of blacklegs, charlatans and gulls
has begun. We of the North can survive
it. God help and shield the otherwise I'M
sheltered heads of our allies at the South.
Men of Maine and Illinois, your garments
are stained with blood. The South calls to
you from thousands Of bloody hearths.
Rise up and cleanse your garments. Lift
your murderous hands from the necks of
those who fought by your side. We knew
that Tennessee and Kansas might send
assassins into the Senate. The first is a
weathercock, ever on the side Of the strong
est. The second sells her Senatorship to
the highest bidder. Half her wealth was
plundered from the Indians. All her
political machinery consists Of traffic in
that spoil. If thieves and thimblerig make
up the caucus, what wonder the candidates
vote is quoted, like other merchandise, on
the daily list of the exchange.

. sExsTRIE SINE QUA NON.

The point insisted on by the New York
World in 4 subjOined article is well
taken, and should be made the rule Of
the convention. Ballots given for any
man who is not distinctly and unequiyo-
cally pledged to support the Democratic
ticket against Grant and all other candi-
dates should be thrown out The Demo-
cratic party is too mighty to suffer such
triaiBg with its interests, whether it be by
the President or the Chief Justice Of the
United States. It should not, and it will
not permit itself to be made step-ladder
tc the personal aspirations Of any man,
to be kicked aside if he should not
choose, or fail 10 be able to so use it.
The friends Of Mr.. Chase and Mr.. John
son, il they present their names for con-
sideration, must 20 prepared with their
credentials Of Democratic orthodoxy, and
with guarantees Of their good faith A
salutary first step in the action Of the
convention would be a resolution elimi-
mating the elements of third partyism
and declaring that whoever was not for
us, whatever betide, until November, is
not Of us. The World says
With regard TO the candidates, we be-
| lieye there ia none, not even the strongest,
| wlo does not stand ready 10 surrender his
hopes if the convention should Judge that
some other is more likely to bring out a
larger vote. And, 90 the other hand, the
most earnest opponents of particular can
didates will yield their opposition and give
a strenuous support TO the ticket, If the
convention shall decide against them. So
| long as this spirit prevails warmth of ex-
| preston can be safely tolerated, az a mere
incident Of that comparison Of views by
which harmony WILDE ultimately attained.
What is called tie Chase movement
will cause no disturbance for the reason
that Mr.. Chase will not receive a single
| vote from any delegation. The reason is, that
nobody can be voted for as a candidate who
does not acknowledge his obligation to stand
| By the ticket if his claimsare overruled. In
a contest between Mr.. Pendleton and Gov.
Seymour Cif Gov. Seymour could be per-
suaded to be a candidate,) we should know
from the beginning that whichever sue
ceededBthe other would not fail TO give him
! his cordial support. But we have no as
surance that Chief Justice Chase would, in
ike manner, feel bound by the action of
the convention. II he should receive the
nomination at all, it could be only by a
spontaneous and unanimous tender--a con-
tingency 80 improbable that il is not worth
discussing. We suppose that there win be
a spirited contest in the convention but it
will be contest between candidates whose
support Of the ticket does not depend upon
their own nomination. 1.-THE ordinary and
reasonable rule be not observed, that all
who consent TO submit their claims to the
convention shall be bound by its action,
how can We have any confidence in the
final harmony which is essential to sue

THE RECONsTRUCTION" INFAMY
ALMOST COMPLETE.
From the Chicago Time.


II is probable that the Democratic
National Convention will give expression
to its opiniOa of the reconstruction in
fanny, and how far it is binding on the gene
raj government. Before the 4lh of next
month. doubtless, Congressman from some
of the excluded States will be admitted
and before the close of the present session,
Congressman from all the States named in
the omnibus bill, and from Arkansas, will
be in their seats. -s...5 H.e
There is not a particle of doubt among
Democrats that the reconstrnction in
fanny, from beginning to end, has been in
violation Of the Constitution and without
one particle of lawful authority. This
being the case, the question arises whether
the Democracy should pledge themselves
to its overthrow, or accept the admission
of the States under it as an accom-
plished fact beyond the power of reYer-
sSl. Should we carry the Presidential
election, the Senate at Washington cannot
be changed in several years and it will
not, of course, consent to undo its work in
conaocting and carrying TO completion the
Reconstruction" infamy. The Democratic
party will not initiate the Jacobins in law
lessness, or permit state of affairs in which
States are recognized as lawful States in the
Union by one branch of Congress, and re-
pudiated as bogus organizations by the 9TH
er branch and by the executive and ju~
dicial departments.
1t is not probable the McCardle case, now
pending in the Supreme Court and post
poned to the November term, will be again
argued, as the questions involved in it will
have lost their interest and importance by
the admission of the excluded States.
Should McCardle gain the case, the
court will have simply decided that
the measures taken by Congress
for the organization of those States
were unlawful. Whether this invalidates
the organization is a question to come up
if at all, before the court. In
the Rhode island case, Judge fancy de-
cided that the court must recognize as the
lawful State governments those that we're
recognized as such by Congress. 1t would
seem by this that, we're a suit brought to
the Supreme Court Of the United States to
test the validity of State governments con-
coeted under the Reconstruction" infamy,
the court would be precluded from going
back of the act of admission.
The convention may deem it advisable
simply to condemn the Reconstruction"
infamy, and leave the question of statehood
10 be determined when the party shall have
the responsibility of meeting it as the par
Ly in power. Sweeping Democratic ma
orities in most of the Northern States
would be a command by the people TO OBJ
iterate everything resting on the military
hills

THEMEMpHTs CONTEMPrCAsEs,

A few months ago the AUdlanche and
the Ledger of Memphis exposed the cors
rupt practices Of Judge Hunter, of the
Criminal Court of that city, in no very
soft phrases The editor of the AcdldncIe
was summoned before Judge Hunter to
answer for contempt of court, and in the
most arbitrary manner was ordered to
Jail as punishment for the contempt he
entertained for Judge who was prosti-
tuting his Office to the most Infamous
purposes. His was anything but court
of justice, according to the AUalaHche
and the subsequent proceedings have
more than verified the charge of that
paper After being confined in Jail by
the order of this Tennessee Jeffreys, the
editor OF the Avalanche was taken before
Judge Waldran, of the Municipal Court
upon a writ of hdbeas corpus, and dis
charged from imprisonment until the
case could be certified to the Supreme
Court and that body act upon the same
The Memphis Ledger of the 22d instant
says ..H o. r III
"Although we have not as vet seen the
opinion of the Supreme Court in the case
of the AUdldnohe we have no reason TO
doubt it has been remanded with an order
Of dismissal. This, of course, is an end Of
all the cases resting on the same grounds
Aud we are gratifed TO know that the lib
erly Of the press is vindicated, not only by
the decision of the highest tribunal OF the
State, but also by the unanimously ex-
pressed opinion Of its bar, and the equally
unanimous voice of the whole intelligent
people. The thanks of the public are due |
the editor Of the AvalaRche for his persis-
tent and resOlute defense, which was not in |
his own interest alone, but in behalf of the |
Ledger as well (since we were also under |
bonds from the same cause, and in defense |
Of the whole press, and of principle Of |
great importance, as affecting the rights |
and interests of the public at large We |
trust that hereafter even Radical Judges |
may conine themselves within the limits
of their lawful authority. When Judges |
are respectable they will be respected, and, |
as in former times, cases Of contempt will |
be rare"
This is Just rebuke Of Judge Hunter
for the infamous war he waged against the
liberty of the press. His policy was to
muzzle the press of Memphis, and then
he could carry out his design of making
his court register Of the ediets of a
little coterie of Radicals who, through
the eonnivance Of Gov Brownlow, have
ruled Shelby county with an iron hand
This man Hunter is an appointee Of Gov
and notwithstanding his cor
-upt conduct, he has not been invited to
end in his resignation. 1t is thus that
he Governor winks at the prostitution Of
he Judiciary to the vilest political pur-
poses
