The secret oGPoIitical Power

A policy to become effective and
bear fruit, must be founded other on
facts as they are, and their necessary,
or ut lenst natural tendency, or up
rn n determined purpose to cncct a
change in things as they are, and to
arouse passion to the assistance of
what is desired earnestly, and chosen
firmly as that which ought to be.
The first relies upon strong convicti;on
as tho motive power Of success tbo
second, on Jirn. and unshr,nhtmg uiU,
fortified by tue provcrb, that "where
there is will, there is way"
Now, just at present, this State has
no policy, and its intelligent property
holders have the choice of ono or the
other of the above principles upon
which to inauguratc one. We agree
with the Phoni,r, that cit is a momcn.
tous matter, of tho very gravest i'm
portance, to give direction to policy
for people" But wc, nevertheless,
boldly counsel :--"build on things as
they are, and not on the desire to
change them to what ought to be-"
Conviction, belief, faith, or whatever
name you choose to give to tho atti-
tudc Of human nature in tho present O
of what is, is far steadier and stronger,
than hope or desire, or even deter
mi ed rurposu for that which may
never be.
Now, then, for the application.
We havo not dug down SO deep, to tho
worry granite, for nothing. We have
not discussed tho knowing, the feeling,
and the willing faculties, and demon
stratod tho normal superiority of the
knowing and believing faculty, for
nothing ; but to give force to our
counsel, to run mixed white and black
Legislative tickets and Grant Con-
gressmcn, as tho proper logical infer
ence from this philosophy, when ap-
piled to present practice in politics.

To Tell the Actual Value o.

The American Stock Journal in
reference to the subject says
"Now, we can 60 into a dairying
neighborhood, and point to farmers
who are losing from two to the
thousand dollars year by keeping
COWS yielding two hundred pounds Of
buttor per year, instead of those that
would yield from five to six hundred
pounds in the same time. How mauy
dairymen can tell the relative value
Of each COW of his herd by actual test :
Thoreis a little Instrumentation This pur-
pose that don't cost much, but very
few dairymen know anything about it.
1T is called u "Laotometer," con-
structed by placing number of glass

in wooden frame. Tho milk from
each cow is placed in some Of these
glass tubes there they stand side by
side, and you can see the depth Of
cream that rises in each tube, repro.

her value thereby. These instru-
ments are kept for sale in Philadel-

Representative Men for OfGiCc


A candid observer will scarcely fail
to admit, that almost all of tho
Old Fcderativc Republic of the
United States that is left, is our rep
resentative system, through which the
will of q now consolidated nation is
expressed. The battle for liberty is,
therefore, now to be fought, in tho
main, exactly hero, by sending to
the Legislature and to Congress truly
representative men. Parties and
politics are IN mixed and confused
condition. The differences between
Republicans and Democrats arc al.
most as numerous as the number of
prominent men in either party. A
wise policy will be, then, undoubtcd-
ly, the one which will look to men and
their well-known character, and not
to the political name they may hap
pen to bear. Let them take any name
they please, and ran as candidates Of
any party that is most likely to elsct
them, (for all parties are in confusion)
proutdcd they be men truly representative
Of the people and cf the State. Elect
them on heir character for sense and
honesty, and lei Them fna a policy wi,h
the Developments Of time. just as we
would say to young man be care.
full to dcvelope excellence of charac-
ter in all parts of your being, clear
head, feeling heart, an undaunted
will and meet the future epending,
not on your circumstances, but on your
character to solve its every problem 1;
SO, We say to the citizens of the State,
fill evcry ofiico you can with men of
good character, truly representative Of
what is best In our society, and trust
your politics calmly into their hands.
by far tho most important measures
of Legislation arc often those upon
which parties split, and votes scatter,
and, as in the impeachmcnt.trial Of
Andrew johnson, few honost and in.
dependent men save their party from
disgrace, and their country from dis
astor.

Our Military Neighbor


The readers Of the Phenin must
have often been struck by the pleasing
introduction of military metaphors
and illustrations, and many, doubtless,
follow the example of the PhGnic it.
self, in not only being captiyated, but
in being thoroughly deceived by them.
Our plain avowal of our conviction
that our government is already revo-
lutioniscd, and beyond recovery that
republican principles, whothor for
veal or woe, are already infused into
its very nature and or open advoca-
cy of Conservative Ropublioanism as
policy, as opposed to extreme radi-
caiism, the Ph,rnis terms ga flank
movement" which "will deceive no.
body" Look at it: that seems to us,
very singular sort of flank move
ment F.; but it may be, for we are not a
military man, and perhaps don't know.
Again, all government and statesman
ship proceeds by the method of COM
promise and persuasion warfare, by
the method Of uncompromisiug force.
Our "tactics" are condemned, because
we see great difference between the
two things, and detect the deceptive
nature of the analogy between civil
,aud military conflict, which our
neighbor, taking pen, far mightior
than the sword, in hand, and fancying
himself at the head of the Regiment
charging "contrabands," instead of
writing for negroe voters, seems total
ly to forget. The fight with negroe
voters, we assure our military friend,
10 tougher fight than any our Con-
federate troops ever had with the
"contrabands." A bullet viii pierce
a nogro's skull, far sooner than the
policy of tho Phenie will convince his
reason. Persuasion and force are
things SO diiferent, that a statesman
is required for the one, while SOL
dier is quite enough for tho other.
The truth gis, wo see clearly that
our views are not in accord with those
of large portion of the white
people of the State. Wo have
not attempted to deceive them, or to
conceal our opinions. It would be
best for this State, we believe, for
many years to come, to be in accord
with the administration, if respecta.
bio set of men can be found to accom-
plish that harmony which would be 80
promotive of prosperity aud progress.
This is tho real dithoulty, that We
have been outspoken but some of
our friends wish to rescue us from er.
ror. To such we say Gentlemen,
thank you but, why not let evcry
man think and speak, if he chooses, in
his own way? We know, We will not
convince you. But we, and such as we,
will give you Letter government, un-
til the forces Of nature prevail, the
white element predominates, and the
top rail rises from the bot!om-snd
we may add---be ourpod for doing 80.
