The Congressional Ku-Klux Committee
is down in South Carolina, and it has al
ready seen the band with its own eyes,
and had personal intercourse with it in a
way not at all agreeable. At the hotel
where the committee was stopping party
of rowdies avowed themselves to be the
genuine Ku-Klux-swore they had too
much pluck to lie about what everybody
knew to be SO; and to prove their veritable
pugnacity. they assaulted the committee
with milk pitchers first and pistols after
ward and then sailed out and shot two
ringers" The committee did not need
any witnesses to prove the existence of
the khan in that vicinity, and its mem
bers prefer not to be convinced so alarm
ingly at any subsequent investigation it
may make. Without feeling any special
luminosity against the Democrats on the
committee, who are always denying the
existence of the Ku-Klux, if they could
have been shot little it would have had
a good effect of convincing them of their
error. Wouldn't it?

carried their respective States by large
majorities, while Mr.. Greeley has lost his
commonwealth by such overwhelming
odds, that even the most sanguine readers
of his paper have almost concluded New
York to be hopeless case. Does this
loss of victory at home entitle the leader
of the beaten host to impose himself upon
his more successful neighbor as better
commander than their own gallant and
ever-winning generals? When New York
follows the advice of the Tribune, and
when a Republican victory comes to us
from the field in which the Tribune pre-
tends to general our friends, if we are in
disaster then, perhaps we may consent to
listen and accept of advice but while
that flank of the army is in a chronic con-
dition of defeat owing to the incapacity
of its leaders, and while we are both vic
torious and confident, it would be folly
in us to listen to suggestions that emanate
from the very depths of disaster and in
competence. If Mr.. Greeley can still
supply the Democrats with advice calcu-
lated to purify their ranks, as they appear
to take to such matters, on account of its
greater applicability to their case, with
great avidfty; if he helps the Democracy,
it will be help to the cause of general
honesty, made in the face of general
disposition to 90 astray.

CANADA RIPENINa FOR ANNEXATION.

While certain and sundry Of our own
people are anxious to get out of the
Union, certain and sundry other people
are daily growing more anxious to come
into the consolidated confederation. The
Montreal Ners, which would be a seces-
sion paper if twas printed in the South,
since it is opposed to annexation now that
it is printed in British colony, solemnly
admits that the Canadians are surely and
rapidly grayitating into annexation, be-.
cause they see in the United States the
highest type of liberal government. And
it supplements this admission with the
statement that England is preparing to
let Canada depart from her possession by
shipping from the colony all that is valu-
able belonging to the mother country. If
the secessionists will look at this fact
through reasonable pair of eyes, they
will probably go over their calculations
as to the effects of separation before
they insist on getting themselves into
worse condition than these Canadians are
in. If Canada can not be happy as she
is, with the British government to pay
most of her expenses and nobody to inter-
fere with her in matters of general con-
duct, what reason has the South to sup
pose that she could gain felicity by setting
up separate household at great expense?
Secession would entail on the South
standing army of two hundred thousand
men, which involves an outlay at once
of two hundred millions of dollars, and
yet the same papers that profess to
worship at the shrine of the ''Lost Cause"
are eve1lastingly complaining about mill
tary satraps, when the entire republic only
keeps in her employ thirty thousand SOL
diers. None of these burdens fall on the
Canadians, for they are rather petted than
otherwise by England, and yet the desire
to become American citizens is so great
that even Great Britain herself is pre-
pairing to let the event conclude without
any particular show of opposition. America
for Americans is the legend of the future

PROTECT THEM BY ALL MEANS.

The honesty and fair dealing of the
Customhouse authorities is likely to be
soon tested. From Washington sources
we learn that Secretary Boutwell, has or
dered special agent to investigate the
charge that men are employed by the
Collector for political purposes, who rem
der no service to the government for the
liberal salaries they draw from the public
treasury The instructions are said to
further require action for perjury to be
instituted against all parties who have
subscribed to the prescribed oath that
they have performed full duties as desig-
mated on the pay rolls.
This investigation may lead to serious
results for those customs officers who
have exclusively devoted their time and
abilities to the erection of wigwams, the
management of ward meetings and the
running of rural newspapers. 1t is the
bounden duty of their employers to pro-
tect these unfortunate gentlemen, and
not permit them to become the victims of
misplaced confidence, as many before
have been

MR.. GREELEY'S ADVICE.

Something of advice from the venerable
editor of the New York Tribune to the Re
publicans of the South has given great
satisfaction to the Democrats of the
South, if we may judge from the animated
favor with which it has been accepted in
that quarter. Mr.. Greeley says, and he
says it boldly, that in order to succeed,
the Republicans of the South must at
once scrutinize the rascal3 in their midst,
and drive them out of the party. We
have not noticed that the Republicans
took much notice of this most friendly in
struction; but this we have observed
that the Democrats made haste to appro-
pirate it, and have continued to hold to
it, just as if it suited their case, if it suited
nobody else. And we shall consider that
the suggestion was well delivered if it ends
in reforming the party that needed it so
badly. AS to the Republicans of the
South, they either disputed with them
selves as to the ability of the farmer of
Chappaqua, who has failed to raise vegeta-
bles himself while giving everybody else
ample advice how to do it, to tell them
how to manage their own affairs, seeing
that he has fallen short Of winning victo-
ries in his own State, or else they had no
rascals to cast out; for we do not see that
Mr.. Greeley's guide book to victories in
the South has been patronized by the
parties to whom it was dedicated. The
Republicans of Texas and Louisiana have

Whereas An act of the Legislature approved

antine for the protection OF the State provides
that the Governor of the State shall issue his proc

cred necessary by the Board of Health, to take
effect from and after the FIRST DAY OF JUNE,

proclaimed will be severely punished.
The places which are hereby declared infected

A report is current on the streets to the
effect that the Customhouse officials are
endeavoring to prevail upon their par
tisans to meet in the Customhouse, in the
name Of the Republican State Conven-
ton, on Wednesday. Once there, they
hope to employ sufficient number of de-
putty marshals and other federal forces to
overawe and intimidate, if not keep
away, the regularly elected delegates of
the Republican party. AS the Central
Committee has not yet named the place of
meeting, and the principal officers are
well known Customhouse men, there is
certainly sufficient reason to believe the
report is not unfounded. And as there is
to be meeting of the Central Executive
Committee this evening, we hope the mat
ter will be definitely settled. Any well
known place of public meeting will be
preferable to the Customhouse The
Mechanics Institute is the usual and most
suitable place for the purpose, and we
hope the committee will select it. 1t is
centrally located, and the hall of the
house is well provided with everything
needed by deliberative assembly.

Mr. Alexander Stephens, who sustains
the constitution in long-winded editorials,
and who insists that nothing shall be
done that can not produce plain warrant
for its commission in the law, SO far as
the States of the South are concerned
rather lets up on his theory when it comes
to questions of personal liberty, since, in
one of his late papers, he says that
though the mayor and marshal of At
lanta may be straining the law and the
ordinances in their summary method of
suppressing gambling and prostitution,
yet every good citizen will applaud and
uphold them in their lanors." If this is
not virtual destruction of private rights,

and that, too, as against the weakest
class of the community, it would be hard
to find an instance that came nearer to it.
If MIR. Stephens can uphold the mayor of
a country village in going outside of the
law to preserve the community from
moral impurity, how can he consistently
condemn the nation for going little out
side of the law to preserve its own life and
the freedom of mankind?
