to make upon it these lugubrious
reflections: "The close contest in
North Carolina will bring some facts

that we may easily place too much re-

thousands. Our correspondent, after
travelling over large part ofthe State,
and comparing notes, not with a few,

Hon. John r. stone IN a N ,

Of Clayton county, is being favorably
mentioned in different quarters by both
Liberal Republicans and Liberal Demo-
Gratis, as candidate for Congress from
the old Third, on the Liberal ticket.
Now then, while we do not expect to
have word to say in the conventions;
or a voice in choosing nominee; yet,
inasmuch as we do not expect to sup
port the nominee Of the party to which
we at present have the honor Of belong
ing, we hope to be pardoned for simply
making some suggestions in relation to
a matter Of so much Importance to the
Third District.
We care not whether the man shall
have heretofore been Democrat or Re-
publican in politics; twill be enough
for us to know that he is honorable,
and feels the necessity of energetic ef-
fort to secure the great local interests
demanded by the producing people Of
the State, and that he has the ability
and influence necessary to carry out the
great programme. Such man We be-
lievc we have in the person of Hon.
John I. Stoneman, and should the
coming convention select him as their
standard bearer, we shall support him
with pleasure and confdence.-[ Peoples

The True Position Of MIR
Greeley Towards Tam
many.

1t is the policy of the Grant party to
malign the character and motives Of
Horace Greeley, in order to prejudice
the people against him. AS this cam
not be done by adhering to facts, the
Administration electioneerers have call
ed misrepresentation and SANDER to
their aid. The most reck less and deli
berate SANDER put forth by the Presi-
dents party is with reference to Mr..
Greeley's attitude towards Tammnny
Taking advantage of the universal ex-
ecration in which the Tammany of
1871, with Boss Tweed at its head, is
held by the community, the Admins
tration have the villainy to aver that
that the Tnmmany which now supports
Horace Greeley is identical with the
Tweed and Murphy Tammany. 1t
matters not that every man who can
read a paper, and is fit to hold ballot
between his fingers, knows that the as
sertion is black falsenood, and that
Boss Twced's Tammany had to contend
with no opponent more unsparing than
the sage Of Chappaqua, yet the vile
tale continues to be uttered with virtu-
Gus assurance. A cause that requires
the employment of such wretched
means to bolster it, must be in desperate
straits.
Now what are the facts about the
Tammany society?-why, that the orga

Greeley's Letter to the Union
League.

That Horace Greeley stands forth in
no new role as the champion Of peace
and reconciliation, is shown by the let
ter which he wrote on the 23d of May,
1867, to the Union League of New
York-a body which took great um-
bragg because he had the courage to
put his name to the bail bond of jeff
Davis, and which assumed to set up a
standard by which he should be judged
for his action in that matter. Here is
the letter which Mr.. Greeley at that
time wrote. It proves conclusively
that he is not only not the weak, credu-
lous man which the administration
organs are now trying to make him out,
but that in 1867, as at the present
time, he possessed breadth of states
manship Of which they had no compre-
hension:
GENTLEMEN-I shall not attend at
tend your meeting this evening. I
have an engagement out of town and
shall keep it. l do not recognize you
as capable Of judging or even fully ap-
pretending me. You evidently regard
me as a weak sentimentalist, nlisled by
narrow-minded block-heads, who would
like to be useful to great and good
cause but don't know how. Your at
tempts to base great, enduring party
on the hate and wrath necessarily en-
geudered by bloody civil war, is as
though you plant colony on an ice
berg which had somehow drifted into a
tropical ocean. I tell you here that,
out of life earnestly devoted to the
good of human kind, your children will
select my going to Richmond and sign
ing that bail bond as the wisest act,
and will feel that it did more for FREQ
dom and humanity than all of you were
competent to do, though you lived to
the age of Methusaleh. I ask nothing
of you, then, but that you proceed to
your end by a direct, frank, manly
way. Don't sidle off into mild reso-
luton Of censure, but move the expul-
sion which deserve, if deserve any
reproach whatever. All I care for is
that you make this square, stand-up
fight, and record your judgement by
yeas and nays. I care not how few
vote for me, nor how many vote against
me; for know that the latter will re-
pent it in dust and ashes, before three
years have passed by. Understand
once for all, that | dare you and defy

Fight your own battles. Hoe your
own row. Ask no favors Of any one,
and you'll succeed five thousand times
better than one who is always beseeching
some ones influence or patronage. No
one will ever help you as you can help
yourself, because no one will be so
heartily interested in your affairs. The
first step will not be such long one,
perhaps; but carving your own way
up the mountain, you make one lead to
another, and stand firm in that while
you chop still another out.

erroneous.

The letters of Sumner and Banks are
producing such tremendous effect in
New England, that Grant may soon
have to reissue his veracious proclama-
tion of last year, and declare that
'a rebellion exists so numerous and
powerful as to be able by violence
to either overthrow or set at defiance
the constituted authorities of the States
and of the United States" 1t would be
quite as true of New England now as it
was Of the South last year.

We acknowledge that Tammany sup
ports Horace Greeley, but it is the
Tammany of the reforlners, led by the
master spirits who compassed the over
throw of Tweed and his band of rob-
bers. The new Tammany is engineer
ed by such men as Charles O'Conor,
Samuel J. fildcn, Sanford E. Church,
Oswald Ottendorfer, with the chairman
of the National Democratic Committee
at their head--mcn who have received
encomiums and plaudits from the very
papers which now have the indecency to
circulate these malicious misrepresenta-
tions concerning Mr.. Greeley. To every
fair-minded, dispassionate man, the
SANDER can appear nothing short of a
crime.
So far from Boss Tweed being a fol-
lower of Greeley, we have the astounl-
ing news from New York that Grant
has been coquetting, through Tom
Murphy, with Tweed, to win over the
support of his wing of the Democracy
the Apollo Hall crowd--to his side.
The alliance between the custom house
party, under Tom Murphy, and the
Tweed Democracy, was made public
some time since. The alliance was
counted on by Grant to carry into the
new organization for his support, Tweed
and Van Mort, Commissioner of Public
Works. Van Mort was Tweed's chic.
clerk, when that individual was in pow
er, and practically his appointee to his
present position. At a recent meeting
Tweed is reliably reported to have
asked his most steadfast friends to sup
port Grant. The new Tweed-Murphy
organization aims, it is said, to rul
Commissioner G Van Mort as the candi
date of this Administration party fol
Mayor
So, in conclusion, we would respect
fully ask Of those Republican journals
which are so deliberately slandering Mr.
Greeley on the score Of Tammany Hall
--'whose OK is gored this time?" for we
presume it will make as much difference
with them as itdid with the old gent in

OBITUARY..
LUDWIG A. FEUERBACH.

A Telegram from Hanau, in Hesse- -Cassel,
reports the death, in that town, Of the distinguished
German philosopher, Ludwig A. Feuerbach He was
born at Anspaeh in Bavaria on the 2Sth OF july 1904
and studying at the common school at his native
place he attended the University at Heidelberg in 1872,
in order TO study theology under Pauus and Daub.
Through the latter he became an ardent partisan
of Hegel and in order to hear this philosopher, he
went In 1924 TO Berlin, where, in the following year,
he renounced theology and devoted himself entirely to
the study Of philosophy In his oath year thesis which
he published at Erangen De rdtione una, unsDerSdt,
inniia secured for him the position OF fUaI decent
at that place. He however withdrew from the chair
after few years, his hardhoOd IN advocating his
opinions had gained him many adyersaries. He then
devoted himself entirely to literary pursuits.
Although he was scholar OF Hegel, Feuerbach dis
played originality in his work. Gedanken dber Tod und
UnsterbEiehkeit, published anonymously in 1880 at
Nuremberg. In this he opposed in vigorous language
the belief in Immortality which had previously been
traditional with all philosophers and theOOgans.
His next work was GesehichH der neueren
Phfl5sophie ron Bacon VerttlaPl BIS
SDino-a published three years later It was
followed in 1887 by Darseng EntoickeIung und Krtk
der Leibuz ehe PhiloSope and in the following year.
by Pierre Bage mach Senen fir die Geschtehte der
PhiLoSophie lnd Melsehheh iteresSantesen Aomenter
These works are indeed HISTORICAL but they show that,
for Feuerbach the history OF philosophy was the bridge
critical investigation OF the rengious SYSTEM anu ls
relation to philosophy
An introduction to Feuerbach's critical investigations
respecting religion was published in 1885, Uebr Phoso-
phte ind OArisrltVD IN Bezehung auf den der HegeP
schen PhiIosophie gemaeen VorcuJ der Unehrtsiieh-
keK His critical Investigations were infinitely de-
tailed in the following three works: Dds Wesen
des Chrfsten Ltums published in 1sIl; GrUnd-
sftae der PhiIosophie der Zukut0, published
in 1913, and Das WeSen der Religion, published
in 1si5 These works enlarged and slightly modi-
fed by subsequent productions of his restless PEN but
they remain the principal monuments OF his critical re-
searches As he resolved theology into anthropoogy,
the philosophy Of religion into psychology ana the an
solute into the final subjective spirit he accused Of
a,heism bv the theoogans and found himself attacked
by numerous other philosophers.
