through the press. Those who believe that tf Q
marshal has been engaged with the German au-
thoritIes In scheme to restore the empire will
ind straw in the fact that the pamphlet is to be
pri2ted at Berlin. 1t details the operations Of the
army, the battles which rendered the retreat from
Metz impossible, but contends that its presence
in that fortress detained 100000 Germans from
marching westward. After being confined at
Metz, Bazalne declares that he received no
answers to his dispatches to the government, nor
did any Of his messengers return. The incon
sistency OF this statement, with the reiterated de-
clarat:ons from French official sources that
the government was in regular communication
with Bazaine, cannot fail to be noted. During
all this time the marshal received no news
except through prisoners and German news
papers A council Of war was held at length,
and in accordance With its decision General Boy
er was. sent on the 10th Of October to Versailles
to ascertain the true condition OF affairs, obtain
terms for the army In Metz, and, possible, nego.
tiate general peace. The circumstances OF this
and the second mission Of General Boyer are
narrated, and it is claimed that the course pur-
sued was the best possible and the terms as good
as could be obtained. The false reports Of the
government at Tours claiming victories that
were never won and asserting the abundance OF
provisions when scarcely any remained, are what
has given color to the charges oftreachery. The
marshal repeats that the supplies had failed and
thss the army had been repulsed at every point.
He is, Of course, very severe upon his accusers.

Holdings views SO decidedly opposed to
those Of the President. and his political
advisers, it is not strange that Mr.. Cox
found his place in the Cabinet exceed
ingly uncongenial. Untrammelled by The
base Influences, which he graphically de,
scribes and vigorously denounces, he will be
able to serve the people moro efficiently.
The work which he has laid out for himself
is one OF the first importance, and his lucid
statements OF the evil and its cure will tend
to crystalline popular sentiment, and to bring
about the thorough reform which he so hon.
estly desires. 1t is too much to expect that
either President or Congress will voluntarily
relinquish the power which insured their
election, and upon which they, in the main,
rely for their continuance in office; but we
expect to see a time, not far distant, when
Civil Service Reform will be voted upon by
the people, and men will be chosen who ore
pledged to put in operation some such plan
OF publication as that which MIR. Cox has
proposed.

The Troubles in the Up-country.

We print to-day such information as is
given by the interior papers in regard to the
bloody work in Spartanburg and Union
Counties. It is evident that in Union the
first responsibility rests with the negroes,
who murdered Mr.. Stevens. The brothers
Ellis were killed while resisting arrest. There
can be, however, no justification OF the
lynching of the persons suspected OF com,
plicity in the Stevens murder. The law
must be allowed to take its course. This is
necessary for public peace and private &C.
curity.
In Spartanburg the whites do not appear
to have been at all to blame; but the people
have adopted resolutions vigorously de-
nouncing riot and disorder by whomsoeyer
begun or continued.
We believe that the responsible citizens OF
the up-country deprecate any violation OF
the law upon any pretext, and, il the State
government will cooperate with them, tran
quillity will most assuredly be restored and
maintained.

CHARGES OF corruption in connection with
the lease Of the Georgia State Railroad
having been made, the Hon. A. H. Stephens
has written letter to friend, in which he
states that he invested in the lease as q
purely business transaction; that he believed
that Governor Brown would pay the State
the amount stipulated, and give the COM
pauy reasonable profit upon their invest
ment; that II there has been anything cor
rupt in the letting Of the road, or in the ac-
ceptance or rejection of bids, be knows
nothing of the matter; that he hopes the at
tack upon the lease will be made by specific
charges which can be proved, and not by in
sinuatlon. Mr.. Stephens says that in the
matter of the lease he was looking as much
to public aspersonal interest, and that while
he has differed from Governor Brown in
politics, he has considered him man per-
fectly honest in oil pecuniary transactions,
both public and private.

Further Democratic Signs.

The New York Sun, avery ln1uenual
political sheet, Radical in politics, butex-
tremely fierce and bitter against the
abuses of the Radical party and the fol-
lies of Grants administration, has ele-
waited at its masthead what it terms
'sThe Peoples Candidates" viz: William
S. Groesbeck, of Ohio, for President, and
John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts,
for Vice. President. =; 500. IS.
This is followed by the platform 80 re-
Gently adopted at Harrisburg, by the
Pennsylvania Democratic State Conven-
ton. Then come the editorial COM
ments of the Sun. The following are the
concluding paragraphs. ~ 4s
There can now be little question that
these ideas will be adopted with, 'unanl-
nifty and enthusiasm by, the Democracy
of the whole Union, and that the Presl.
dental election of 1872 will be fought
upon them. When Pennsylvania and
Ohio speak in this manner, their declara-
tions must be echoed by Massachusetts,
by Illinois, by Missouri, and by all the
States Of the South. This puts an end
forever to the hope of reYiying the issues
of the rebellion for use in any future
Presidential election; and it puts an end
forever to all possibility of the reelection
of Gen. Grant by any party or on any
platform. 49,
The Democracy show the highest po.
litical wisdom in their enunciation o1
this memorable and patriotic programme:
Now let US see if they can display equal
wisdom in the selection of their men.
With such men as William S. Groesbeck
as their candidate for the Presidency and
John Quincy Adams as their candidate
for Vice President, and with this pro-
gressive platform, their success in 1872
becomes more than probable.
