Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-02-23

p"
at large, by one who has heretofore enjoyed
the confidence and esteem Of the Republlcan
party; one who In hIa own country could
nevcr have risen, for revolutionary and Wis
iouary he was In hls youth, and the same
elements are the main ingredients OF his
character to-day.
Senator schurz b nothing u not reyolu-
tionary. lie rides a principle to death, no
matter how much mischief may ensue 90
long as he considers Ii right and proper.
He pursues every object from an abstract
standpoint. To him (cradled aud educated
under European one man power) the Ad.
ministratlon Ia separate and distinct from,
and has no connection with the people; that
Il can be ruthlessly and recklessly attacked
and cause no comment among the thinking
masses. Never was more absurd Idea en-
gendersd In the brain Of q schemer. The
Administration Il part And parcel Of the peo-
pie; reflects their wishes, feelings and hopes;
Is not myth, but n substantial embodiment
Of the common sense and virtue Of the Amer
lean people.
And before the echo Of his rounded periods
shall have ceased to yibrate, he will and that
Il Il much easier. as the Psunsylvania Dutch
man said. "For dc dog 70 wHg his tan, than
for de tail 10 wag de dog.'
Its, indeed, notsurprising that the Senator
should thus act. An OF his surroundings lat
torly have been European. Although an Amer
lean Senator We venture the assertion that
no one has taksn greater delight 10 make his
adopted country appear absurd, In the polite
ard cultured foreign circles al his own home,
than the courtly and moral Senator.
That fatal dinner with Bismarck has turned
bis republication, and, like tho scholastic
Dr. r. Kapp, he, too, sends volumes Of
rhetoric Into the world, full OF republican
promises, but In his practice thoroughly
aristoeratc and foreign.
II the Senator asserts that he loves thls
country, and that all Of his attacks are only
for the purpose Of purifying the public con
scleuce, we say to him that In attacking the
good character, tho public acts OF the Repub-
lican party, he dishouors the land OF his
adoption, aud acts tho renegade against the
principles which made Ii alone possible for
him to vault Into the Senate.
Il is al assumption, arrogance, for this
man to arrogale all Of the brain culture of
the land, and that the future Of the country
eau alone be secured by following his dicta-
ton.
lie represents nothing but schurE, and
while we concede to him ability OF the highest
order, we must not forget that the Hrchangels
fell by the motive, "to sooner reign lr hell
than serve In heaven"
