UeLy QUESTION.

Governor Hoffman, Of New York, in
his message to the Legislature, makes o
strong point when hesays that ito depend
for the peace and order Of localities on
the Federal army is not selfgovernment.
To substitute the regular soldier with
his musket as peace officer in the
place Of the constable with his writ is
not to preser7e the peace, but to estab-
lish a condition of war. To Surrender
the election to the control of the Presi-
dent, supported by armed forces, is to
surrender liberty and TO abandon Re
public" Whether the control Of the
elections has been surrendered to the
President or not, he assumes it, and If
to submit to that assumption be a sur
render Of liberty, it is pertinent to in
quire whether the people will yield with
out a struggle. If the question of the
surrender of liberty and Republican
government could be submitted to the
sense Of the people at the ballotbox,
there would scarcely be division. Yet
Governor Hoffman admits the existence
of a state of things the reverse of what
would be the verdict Of the ballot, and
in manner exceedingly gentle, rather
deplores than denounces them. And
we have come to this at last Even Gov
ernor Geary, of Pennsylvania, neither
adorned by a Democratic color, nor ami
mated by a conservative sentiment,
deplores the use of Federal troops in
Congressional elections. Deplores, and
nothing more. If Hoffman be correct
ard Geary sincere, should not the States
of New York and Pennsylvania dispense
with protests and resort to force to
restore liberty and republican govern
ment9 They are either mistaken, insin-
cere in their expressions, or they do not
think those great Blooms worth the trouble
of preserving.

PUBLIC LEDGER.
MOVING ON.

Events soon to transpire in Congress
will inform tho country of the progress
of the civil revolution, and whether its
noint of elimination will be immediate
or remote. If its progress shall keep
mace in the two next years with the
stride of the two last, at the end OF
Grants first term where will the coun-
try be? Congress will probably avow
without concealment that the dominant
party may overthrow State, if a State
shall stand in the way of its ascendancy.
The Southern States, and the political
aspects Of them, have been discussed
and debated by the authorities at Wash
ington, not with view to promote their
prosperity, but to either compel them to
vote for Grant in 1872 or to so bind
them that they cannot vote at all. Moth
ing but the fear of the effect of such
measures on the minds of the people of
the other States delays the revolutionists-
That is very serious obstacle. To lose
the North in an attempt to carry the
South by steel and gunpowder, would be
a blunder. Yet, to see our hated section
emerging from devastation, and ranging
itself on. the Democratic side, is a little
more than Radical natures can well sub
NIT to. At all hazards there will be
some congressional, some Executive, in
reference with the peace and the pro-
gress of the South. We need not
expect to remain quiet so long
as we claim the right to think for our
selves, to vote as we like and to detest
oppression. At least one hundred thou
sand mouths are fed, and as many backs
clothed by keeping alive the spirit of hate
in the North. 1t has come to be an i'm
mense business. We will not be sur
prised if it shall, like the manufacturers
and fishermen, demand government
bounties and protection against the
cheaper hate of all the world. Men
and women grow rich on it. Every
wheel that whirs sings hate; every ham
mer rings it; all the bells chime it; the
very dogs bark it, and the children cry
it. 1t is a good deal like Byron's
Darkness" only on smaller scale. A
rousing day is coming-an Weakening of
the lethargic minds Of the people. 1t
will be a very great day.

Message Relative 90 the south
Inferesfs Ned River Counfry!
WAsHISsroS, January.z.-The discom-
fiture of the crowd Of lobbyists and Office
seekers, and Others with axes to grind,
who constituted themselves delegations
to represent the Republican party of the
Pacific coast, and imposed upon the
President their opinions about how he
should make up his Cabinet and who he
should appoint to Office in California
and Oregon, affords much amusement to
political circles here. 1t is believed that
the President has insured himself against
being annoyed in future with advice from
self.constituted delegations, BY therecep-
ton he gave these gentlemen. A number
of the friends of Senator Williams would
not Join the movement and the Senator
himself was wholly uniformed that such
action was contemplated.
The report which has been circulating
that the Spanish Minister is actually en-
gagged, through agents and emissaries,
in opposing the annexation of San Do
mineo, has no foundation whatever, 1t
is we'll known that the Ministercan take
no active part in the controversy.
1t is understood that the President
has finished message to Congress, in
answer to Senator Morton's resolution,
calling for certain information regard
ing the state of the South The mes
sage viii be accompanied by a mass of
reports. documents and facts, which are
in the hands of the President. 1t is
thought resolution will be introduced,
providing for the appointment of q
special committee by Congress to in.
.yestigate the condition of many South
ern States, and frauds which are charged
as being made at elections during the
pa st year
The President will send on Monday
all correspondence kilograms, etc, re-
lative TO the recall of Minister Motley,
together with his letters of vindication.
( The question Of shipping interests
viii be agitated in Congress shortly A
select committee, lately appointed, will
soon meet to consider this subject. The
President will not send any more mes
saees to Congress on this subject. 1t is
said he has no very decided views in the
matter. and will leave Congress to follow
its own course In private he ex-
presses himself favorable to building
government war vessels in private yards,
and giving bounties out of navy appro-
priatiOns for the building of q certain
number Of merchantmen, under the SUI
perintendence of United States engi-
neers, SO as to be readily convertible
for war purposes.
A delegate from the Red River coun-
try brings q memorial to the President
asking Interference for their protection,
representing the condition of affairs
there in fearful light. The delegate
says that popular feeling favors annexa-
ton to the United States.
The House Judiciary Committee will
resume the investigation of the Nectar
rahan claim on Monday. |
1t is stated again on good authority
that Senator Morton will be offered the
position of Secretary of State, and that

THE jackson miss. Clarion ssysi
1.-THE denial by the Radical rulers OF
the right Of the people to elect their
county officers is an outrage on public
justice. 1t is mockery to call the pre-
sent State government Republican sys-
tenn when this right is withheld from the
people. And the wrong is even more
glaring when it is remembered that its
perpetrators do not owe their own cleo
ton to fair popular decision" Our CO.
temporary should reflect that the old
order of things is wiped out, and new.
order wiped in.
