Decidedly an unkind cut is that of the
National Republican yesterday. While
Mayor Flanders is striving by every art
known to him to convince the public that
he is the embodiment of official incor-
ruptibility, and Administrator Lewis de-
fes even the Citizens Association to I'M
peach his integrity, the organ that should
prove their especial champion proclaims
them frauds and impostors that they in
ficted themselves on the community by
means of bal]ot-box stufing. Truly,
these brethren do no. dwell together in

The New Scheme Of the Grant
illustration TO Perpefuafe
CarPet-Isaggeryf n the
SOmah

The n. Y. World justly observes that
the 10th section of the new election Tor
bayonet) law contains one of the most
villianous assaults upon the elective
franchise that has ever been cloaked I'M
der the forms of law. Any of the swarm
of election bravoes provided for by the
act may arrest without warrant and upon
his own bare suspicion any officer APP
pointed by law to conduct an election,
and take said officer forthwith to jail,
even though his absence necessitates a
closing of the polls. Pending the ques-
ton on this clause, Mr.. Johnston, Con-
sentative of Virginia, moved to strike it
out. But with the exception of Mr..
Trumbull and one or two others the Re-
publicans in body voted against the mo-
ton. An analysis of the vote shows that
the villiany received the support of all
the carpet-bagmen from the misrepresent-
ed Southern States, Ames the self-elec-
ted imposter among the rest. We may
add that this man, claiming to represent
Mississippi, has invariably supported
every vindictive measure which Radical
malice has invented for the prescription
and oppression of her people.

The Lesson of Gov. Vance's RE.
lection.

1t is now certain that Gov. Vance,
who was elected to the U. S. Senate by
the North Carolina Legislature, will
not be admitted to his seattle majority
having determined not to relieve him of
his disabilities imposed by the 18th
Amendment. 1t is even apprehended
that Abbott, the carpet-bagger from New
Hampshire, whom he defeated ~ large
majority, viii be permitted to take the
place, and thus for six years to to misrep-
resent the people of North Carolina in
that body.
The result is fnll of instruction to the
people of the South. 1t will teach them
for the hundredth time the folly of not
accepting facts as they are, and of throw
ing away victories by electing persons to
office who have been disqualified by the
vindietive legislation of the Republican
party which is mean enough to take adj
vantage of every act of confidence based
on a supposition of their justice or mag
nanimity.
The case of Gov. Vance is a peculiar
one. He was a Union man before the
war. During the war he was true to his
own State and people and fought it brave
ly out. After the war. true it is he re-
fused to join the Republican party and
thus for the sake of office to become a
champion of the prescription of his own
countrymen, bur he was the advocate of
prudent and conciliatory measures The
people having the privilege of free action
in the matter of selectiong their agents,
they elected him to the Senate as their
representative man, Notwithstanding his
disabilities, trusting to the good faith of
the dominant party. For two months
he has been at Washington asking of that
party as favor what his people should
claim as right. The result is known.
Hereafter let the people trust nothing to
the iberality or to the plighted faith of
the Republican party when it has power
to deal with them vindictively or to de-
celve them. Let them select men who
can qualify, or who viii not have to pur-
chase office by base surrender to the
despicable party which is the author of
the disabling acts that comprise the record
Of its infamy.

For the first time, the question is be-
ginning to be discussed in Northern Radi-
cal circles whether Grant should be the
Republican candidate for the Presidency.
His Administration is SO manifestIy q
failure, that the shrewdest Radicals be-
gin to admit that his defeat is inevitable.
The current of sentiment is entirely
against him. New Hampshire is the
feather that has broken the camePs back.
Still he has military prestige and bands
of mercenaries at his beck, and his re-
lection will be an admission of the utter
defeat of the party which cannot afford to
dismiss him as its leader and yet will be
inevitably defeated under him.

A practical suggestion is that of our
correspondent, "Old Citizen" proposing
railroad from jackson to Vernon, in
Madison county, distance of twenty
three miles, and about midway, on an
airline to Yazoo City. Such a mad
would be of incalculable benefit to the
city of jackson, would open up one of
the most productive sections of the State,
and would prove an important feeder to
the other railroads passing this point.
We understand that at least two of our
local merchants have expressed readi-
ness to take stock, each to the amount of
five thousand dollars.

JUDGE THE TREE BY ITS FRUIT.-In
all the wild rawlings of the Pilot about
the Meridian riot, it has uttered nothing
more extravagant than the charge that it
was instigated by ''loial Democratic of
fce-holders," when in truth, as the Ga
zette observes, every incumbent of Office
in Lauderdale county, including Meri-
dian, was Republican.
If the Pilot will insist on chasing as
Democrats all the old citizens who hold
conservative views. let ID patiently wait
and see what will result from the new ap-
pointments. We are willing that the
party opposed to, Radicalism, shall be
Judged by their acts.

The New York Herald berates Beast
Butler and his Republican cohorts for
Withholding amnesty from the people OF
the South-saying "Butler and all
his partisan adherents see that general
amnesty is inevitable, and yet they allow
themselves to be pushed toward ito be
driven inch by inch toward the inevitable
when they should take time by the
forelock and declare in one generous
measure full and free pardon to all the
South. They hold that it would be
giving the State governments over to the
Rbels at once, and that the rebels are full
# bitterness toward Union men but,
even if this were so, delay or niggardness
would not help it. The rebels viii not
bve Union men any the better for being
themselves ground more completely to
earth by them, nor will they seiz. the
State governments with any less aMdity
for being kept out of them SO much lon
GER"
The ''rebels," as the Herald calls the
Southern whites, do not complain so
much of being bereft of power, as much as
they abhor the tyranny which disfran-
clises them, as they do of the abominable
Legislature, the abuses, corruption and
wholesale stealing of the adventures and
tier African allies who have been put in
authority over them.

The whole country is astOunded by the
defeat Of the Radicals IN New Hamp-
shire in the election on the 18th. Ever
since the organization of the Republican
party, she has gone tooth and nail with
It. For fifteen years she has steadily
stood in that column and 50 decidedly has
she Occupied the position that all parties
have counted her fer the Radicals. Inth
most extravagant calculation of their
chances, the Conservatives have set her
down for the opposition. And yet she
wheels into line, gives a clean, straight
out verdict against the Radicals, and elects
a Democratic Governor and full Demo
cratic Congressional Delegation On the
dav before the election the Washington
Chronicle, the organ of the Administra-
ton, referred to it saying, 1--WE anticipate
can easy victory. In another column, we
sprint some interesting facts relative to
.sformer votes, the candidates, DC. On
turning to the ''other column, we find II
announced that the Republicans were
confident of success, that they "were
holding nearly all the meetings" that theil
candidate for Governor, Pike, was "a
popular man" and would be elected by "a
large majority" that the Republican can
didates for Congress were all liable and
popular" and some of them had wor
distinction in the war. OF the Demo
crats, it was said they were not known

Last year the vote of the State was thus

q O23: Labor Reform. 1859; Prohibition
ll67 This year most of the Temperance
men will vote for Mr.. Pike, majority o.
their convention having refused TO mona
nate a candidate against him.
Under these circumstances of an &C
tive canvass, the influence of federal pat
ronage, the prestige Of party victory, ant
of popular candidates, the Radicals ar
nevertheless routed. The victory of thu
Democrats was in their cause, viz: Res

a bill Of Ab0mfnatfons
In the measure we copy below, the
justice-loving, orderly, but oppressed and
plundered people-of Mississippi viii be-
hold another specimen of the brood of
ubiquitous measures which have been
spawned by Radical malice for their per-
secution. Conceived in spirit of
hatred and shaped in the most approved
method which the ingenuity of its authors
is capable of suggesting, the scheme 4
in direct conflict with all the principles
which have been held sacred and all
the usages which have been observed in
free Government for dispensing justice
with impartial hands, savingthe innocent
from harm and Furnishing the guilty. The
bill authorizes the Governor, in violation
of the clause of the Constitution divid-
ing the powers of the Government be-
tween the three departments, to procure
Indictment, prosecution and trial of any
person whom he may suspect of crime,
in another county or district than that in
which the offence is alleged to be commit
ed. Thus, upon secret information insti-
gated by malice and falsehood, an limo
cent person may be dragged to a remote
portion of the State for trial even with
out previous knowledge of the proceedings
against him. A citizen of jackson coun-
ty is liable to be carried before a jury OF
negroes in Washington county and con-
demned under the forms of law, by
the edict of secret and irresponsible
Loyal League conspiracy, ito ignominious
punishment ON charges trumped up fol-
the occasin. 1t is for the preparation Of
abuses of this character that the bill has
been framed.
The trial by a jury of the vicinage is
co-existent with the system itself. In
the Declaration of Independence the VIC
lation of this security against oppression
by the crown was one of the grievances
complained of by its authors; and so es-
sential to liberty was the principle deemed
by the trainers of the Constitution of the
United States that they engrafted it up
ON that instrument by declaring that ''in
call criminal prosecutions the accused
"shal enjoy the right to speedy and
f'public trial by an impartial jury of the
estate and district wherein the crime
"shall have been committed" But what
is too sacred to be violated by the pollu
ted hands of the imposters who now by
virtue of military election, in violation
of the fundamental theory of Republican
government, are presuming to sit as the
Legislature of Mississippi?
1t is such villianous contrivances a.
these that produce Ku Klux organiza
tons, and other combinations for mutual
protection, against arbitrary punishment
in the name of law. They owe theil
origin to the instinct of self-preservatiOn
which will cause even the worm ts
sting when trodden upon. The people
want protection, not vindictive Legislation
and oppression; and they will take care
of themselves by unlawful combinations
against such interference with the inaliel-
able rights of freemen as is contemplated
by this iniquity. The men who wilfully
and wickedly provoke to violence and
crime by tyrannous laws for the punish
ment of others have no right to complain
If their bloody instructions recoil upn
themselves:

Aaron Moore has established another
claim on the affections of the people of
Lauderdale. Pending the bill to appro-
pirate $1,000 to pay the expenses of the
Meridian Riot Committee, he moved to
amend by taxing the people of that
county with that sum. What sort of an
explanation will he make to his constitu-
ents when he returns to render an ac-
count of his stewardship?
