Our politics seem to worry the
Courier. Sometimes it has us a
Democrat at heart disguised as a
Radical, and sometimes q Radical
disguised as a Democrat. The po-
litical education and training of our
neighbor prevent his understanding
the simplicity of our politics. He
can be nothing but Democrat ac-
cording to the old SlideIl regime,
and accepts nothing as. politically
ofhodox that has not been stamped
g Democrat by the slidellian sue
cessors. 1aytAiag SO stamped is all
right. Mr.. e. Brown colored, was
SO stamped, and thus purged of all
Republican filth. aNiggersn in diff
ferent parts of the State were stamped
e Democrat and nominated on the
ticket. Our platform is
a very simple one. We support and
vote for our friends and those we
like best, whether they be called
Democrats or Republicans, members
ofthe Peoples Party, or anything
else. When the Courier supported
i, Brown, eolored, for the Dem
ocratic State convention we presume
it supported its friend, Irrespective
ofrace, color, or previous condition

We do not use the words old
fogy" as a term Of reproach or dis
respect, but as describing Il class of
persons who are deluded with the
idea, when they come into power,
of undoing all the results of the
war; such as, repeating the recon-
struction acts and the amendments
to the constitution, re-establishing
the old doctrine of States rights
both in theory and practice, repu-
dating the public debt, &c.
Threats to do these things, by
Southern politicians, are not only
futile, but render the condition of
the South worse than it would be,
by the unfavorable impression they
make on the Northern people. We
see no sense in butting our heads
against a stone, because we "a not
get all we want, or think we are
entitled to. Our opinion is, if this
class of politicians had dropped
politics entirely after the war, the
Southern people would have been
spared many a bitter pill they have
been compelled to swallow.

Different Views.

4AC AouIo LAC CV4S NNt, IL
is well known, is an ably conducted
and very influential Democratic
paper. 1t is opposed to further
agitation of the negro question. It
is opposed to threats or attempts to
repeal the amendments to the con
stitution and the reconstruction
acts. It is in favor of letting these
things remain as they are, and max
ing the best out Of the future. It
considers the continued agitation of
these questions bad policy, which
can not succeed, and from which
no good can result. 1t considers,
also, that negroes should be allowed
to testify in the courts of Kentucky,
after the ratification of the amend
ments to the Federal constitution.
But that element in the Demo-
cratic party, in favor Of agitating,
and undoing all these things, was
not satisfied with the course of the
Courier-Journal; and another pa
per, called the Daily Ledger, has
recently appeared in Louisville, as
the organ of this element. The
New Orleans correspondent of the
Ledger, writing on the 14th of last
month, expresses views somewhat
different from those of some other
papers of the same ilk. He says:
GOVERNOR WARMoTH.-Just at
present the only obstacle in the way
of the legislative majority is Cover
nor Warmoth, who seems inclined
to protect the treasury and the fair
fame of the State from the hungry
hordes of political plunderers.
Whether his shoulders are broad
enough OF his heart stout enough to
be the providential Hercules des-
tined to cleanse these Augean
stables, time alone Will prove. All
good citizens " grateful for what
he has done in protecting the inter
ests of the State, and bid him God
speed for the future. He is a young
man-not yet thirty years of age
of commanding personal presence
intellectually as well as physically,
like Saul of old-head and shoulders
above his political friends, who res
pect while they fear him.
AS a public speaker he is ready,
clear, and eloquent. In his execn-
tive capacity he has shown extraor-
binary decision, nerve and energy.
AS a political manager he is bold,
independent and fortunate (which
means f~ar-seeing in his combina-
tons, while not even the tongue of
SANDER has ever charged him with
prostituting his high office to per-
sonal emolument). He aspires to a
national fame. .a.
+. General West, recently elected
United States Senator by a combi-
nation of Democrats and Conserva-
tive Republicans, is a personal
friend of the Governors, and, in al
most every respect, his exact coun-
terpart. Small of stature, a poor
speaker, but a trenchant writer, and
an incorruptible man, of moderate
opinions, he was selected as the
most available candidate, and east
ly elected. sesS .ser.r
