Senator Morton.

Before Senator Morton, of Indiana,
had decided whether he would adhere
to the fortunes of President johnson,
or join hands with the jacobins in con-
gross, he said, in substance, that if the
negroes in the southern states were fit
mel to be invested with the privilege
of the ballot, the fact was disproof of
all that had been urged against slavery
in this country. He thought it proved
such an elevation Of the blacks by "the
peculiar institution" as entitled it to
continuance. He was not then in IA
vor Of negro suffrage.
In the senate, few days ago, he
forced through an amendment to bill
then pending, requiring the excluded
states to ratify an amendment to the
constitution, fastening negro suffrage
upon them, and in such form that
they could not release themselves from
it. He did this although senators Of
his Own party denounced such action
as violation of pledges which con-
gress had given those states. What
has occurred to change Senator Nor
tens opinion, in SO short time, about
the voting qualifications of the me-
groes?
Let him understand that no amount
of intelligence, or any elevation of
position, can make slippery dema-
gogue else that detestale to honest
men.

Grant VS.. Jefferson,

The following letter from Thomas
Jefferson, on the subject OF political ne
potlsm is Of interest at the present
time when President Grant seems to be
determined that not the remotest men,
Der of his family shall be left without
an Office. Mr. Jefferson was inaugu-
rated March 4, 1901; three weeks
aftsrward lie wrote to kinsmaD, Geo.
Jefferson this epistle, which we copy
from Randall's Life of Jefferson"
vol. 2, page 662:
GEAR SIR: / have to acknow-
ledge the receipt of yours of March 4,
and to express to you the delight with
which l found the just, disinterested
point Of view in which you saw the
proposition it covered. The resolu-
ton you SO properly approved had
long been formed in any mind. The
public will never be made to believe
that an appointment of a relative is
made on the ground Of merit alone,
uninhuened by family views; nor can
they ever see with appreciation, Offices,
the disposal of which they intrust to
their presidents for public purposes,
divided out as family property. Mr.
Adams degraded himself infinitely by
his conduct on this subject. as Wash
ington had done himself the gratest
honor.-With two such examples to
proceed by, I should be doubtly inex-
cusable to err. 1t is true that this
places the relations Of the president in
worse situation that if he were q
stranger, bat the public good, which
can not be effected, if its confidence be
lost, requires this sacrifice. Perhaps.
too, is compensation by shacing in
the public esteem. I could not be
satisfied till | assured you of the III
creased esteem with which this trans
action fills me for you. Accept my
affectionate expression Of it.

COPPEREEEAD.

We haven't the least objection to
being called "copperhead; )" in fact,
under some circumstances, it affords
us pleasure to be addressed by that
familiar appellation.
When we see a bigot, of the school
that crucifed Christ, burned witches,
and cropped the ears Of Quakers, and
hear him speak Of us politically, it is
always source of pleasure to us to
hear him say "copperhead." Such
poor devils know ne better, and any
indeccncy of word or action cannot
degrade them socially to the level of
their moral deprayity.
There was time when partizan
feeling ran so very high that occasion
ally tolerably decent republican SO
far forgot himself as to use terms Of
hatred and malice in referring to polit-
zeal opponents and, we must say, the
compliments were pretty generally re-
turned. While this was silly, it was
then partially excusable on the ground
of undue and unusual excitement:
Now, however, the use of such terms
merely denotes the standard and calibre
of the parties using them.
Il is true that the men who most
loudly bawl i" copperhead," parrot-like,
do not possess intelligence sufficient to
form a moro powerful argument, and
furthermore; like the parrot, cannot
keep quiet, therefore they relieve
themselves in this manner. Their
masters and teachers are finally re-
sponsible for teaching them such bad
manners.
a few days ago several Of the most
estimable ladies in our place, wives of
prominent and respectable republicans,
undertook a work Of charity, justice
and humanity; work which, under
the circumstances, was necessarily con-
fined to republican circles, and because
the project conficted with the ambi-
tious plans Of a few self-styled leaders,
these ladies were met by these men
with the objection that they were stri.
wing 10 consummate "copperhead
trick" and their support could not be
obtained to aid such scheme! We
do not apecify any of these parties, fol
we are really sorry for them.
We presume if preparing for Heaven
after death, were exclusively a " cop.
perhead" fashion, these men would
de cline to give their countenance to
such a project As We cannot express
ourself very temporarily on this sub.
ject, we will leave it for the present
and merely in private contemplate the
depths that human meanness can de-
scend to.
The Plymouth weekly Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1860-1869, 1869-04-22

different, at least in respect to the ma
jority and we were quite sanguine
our friends could carry the township
by proper management and industry.
We do not speak of these matter
for. the purpose of finding fault, but
to illustrate the danger of lethargy
and the imperative necessity
for eternal vigilance. Every
victory by the radicals, no
matter how unimp5rtant it may
seem, strengthens them and weakens
us, and has its corresponding effect
when the most important election
comes on and We most need the
strength we thoughtlessly or needless
ly rob ourselves of.
The full duty of working democrats
consists in laboring for the nomination
of the hes men on the ticket, and
then for their election, but if it so oc-
ours that the best man is not nomina-
ted, why, then, so much the greater is
the necessity for work to support his
weakness. The first thing to regard
is the election of all regular nomin ees.

The Battle of Kegs.

The sharp encounter in the house
between General Schenck and General
Butler might rightly be termed the
3" Battle of the Kegs" 1t was all
about the whiskey tax. What mag
nfcient spectacle the debate present
ed! Butler standing up for the treas
ury of the United States and Schenck
as Butler alleged, for the whiskey
ring. The former stated in the face
of the country" that "a million and a
half Of dollars year" was interested
in having certain provision in the
whiskey bill fail. The Z" face of the
country" ought to blush at such a
statement. But its face has become
calloused agoinst charges of this kind,
and it can only be broug ht to relax its
rigidness by further developments of
the same sort. Let the Battle of
the Kegs wage. The country can
lose nothing by its continuance.
