Horace Greeley as an Alder
and AbettOr of Secession.

NO NOteT sIlouiu iOASCt thoe AAoA |
Greeley in the winter preceding our late
"bloody war; did all in his power to per
suade the Rebels that they had the right |
to secede. Thousands Of ex-rebels in the |
South to-day will tell you that it was the |
famous declarations of Horace Greeley tina,
drove them into secession. A few extracts |
from Mr.. Greeley will suffice. In the Tri-
bune of November I'd, 1860, Mr.. Greeley,
over his own signature, wrote thus:
"Whenerer ana considerable section Of
This Union shall really insist on getting oaa
of ii, WE SHALL INSIST THAT THEY
BE ALLOWED TO GO, and ace feel u.s.
sured that the North generally cherishes a
kindred determination. So Ut there be no
more babble as to the ability Of the Cotton
States to uh p the North. If they WILL
fight they mast h1nt up some other enemy,
FOR WE ARE NOT GOING TO FIGHT THEM.
II they insist on staying in the Union. they
must of course obey its laws; but if tn.
People (not the swashy politicians) Of the
Cotton States shall ever deliberately vote
themselves out of the Union, we shall be
in favor Of letting them GO IN PEACE"
And on the l4th of January. 1861, Mr..
Greeley, in the Tribune, wrote thus:
IDS to Secession, I haze sasd repeatedly.
and here repeat. that. IF THE PEOPLE OF
THE SLAVE STATES, OR OF THE COTToN
STATES ALONE, REALLY WISH TO GET OFT
OF THE UNION, l AM IN FAVOR OF
LETTING THEM OUT, as soon as that
result can be peacefully and constita.tionally
attained. But their case cannot be so ur
gent as to require that the President and
his sabordinates should perjure themselves
in Difference to its requirements. Ii they
will only be patient, not rush to Selling
Federal forts, arsenals, arms and SUBJ
treasures. but take first deliberately fair
vote by ballot Of their own citizens, none
being coerced or intimidated, and that
cote shall indicate settled reSolpe TO GET
OUT OF THE UNION, / WILL Do ALL
CAN TO HELP THEM OUT at an early
day."-7Tibstne, January IA, 1861.
And indeed all through that baleful win
ter preceding the war Mr.. Greeley filled
the Tribune with such doctrines as these.
Even as late as April 8, 1862, when the
war was nearly year old, Mr.. Greeley
used these words, over his own signature.
in the Tribune:
II AM ONE OF THE FEW NORTH
ERN MEN WHO, TO AVOID WAR.
WOULD HAVE PREFERRED THAT
THE SOUTHERN STATES SHOULD
LEAVE US IN PEACE
Should Mr.. Greeley now be chosen
President, and another conspiracy be Or
ganized to destroy the Union, he Is on
record in the most solemn manner to let
them "GO IN PEACE"
Mr.. Greeley, in short. believes in allow
ing the rebels to carry any State out of the
Union where majority can be found to
vote that way. Gen. Grant, on the other
hand, believes in whipping the rebels into
submission to the Union when they at
tempt TO defy the national authority.

Mr.. Summers letter to the colored peo-
pie Is published. After his speech in the
Senate against Grant there never was a
possibility that he would support him for
President. He has only waited for what
seems to him a favorable moment and
made the plunge which carries him into
the arms Of Greeley. There are many
tough questions for him to meet on his
winding way" which involve the highest
principles ever assumed to control his ac-
ton as q republican.

lieved through the war that he was true

duct to eccentricity and weakness. rather
than to any baser motive, but that opinion
is undergoing change since his nomina-
ton by the rebels and the disclosures OF
these rebel documents.

STORMS ABOUT CHATTANOOGA.
Distraction Of Bridges, Track, &c.

From the Chattanooga Times of the 10th
we take the following account of the eff
fects of the storm on the night of the Sth
The Memphis train due here yesterday
morning at 4:30 arrived at . p. NJ, being be-
hind time twelve and one-half hours. The
track of the Memphis and Charleston road
was not seriously damaged by washing,
the detention of the train from Memphis
being due to the submerging of the track
the greater portion of the way from Mem
phis to Huntsville.
The mail agent on the train that arrived
yesterday evening informed US that they
ran through not less than one hundred and
fifty miles of water from one to three feet
deep. 1t was necessary to stop the train at
short intervals and "take soundings''
ahead to ascertain the condition of the
track.
The track on the Nashville and Chatta-
nooga road is badly damaged between Muir
fresborO and Wartrace, some fifteen miles
of track being badly wrecked, culverts torn
out and bridges gone. The half of the
bridge over Stone river is gone.
Some of the scenes described by the Of
ticers of the trains were thrilling and al
most beyond belief. One of the conduc-
tors stated that his train ran some distance
beside n new made torrent one hundred
and fifty yards wide that completely
drowned by its terrific roar the noise of
the train. He saw whole fields submerged;
in which he saw pillow handles visible
above the raging food.
The train that left here on the w. &. A.
IL. II. for Atlanta at 5:30 yesterday morn
ing met with q serious accident at Tunnel
Hill. The engine upset by one side of the
track giving way under it, falling on q
wood-passer. negro, and crushing him
to death. The track was blockaded by the
accident so as to detain the Atlanta train
due here at lao yesterday so that it did not
arrive until four in the evening.

DEMOCRATIC JUDGES IN NEW YORK CITY
rrirhtfat Picture OF judicial Corruption.

| FrigItfut Picture OF judicial Corruption.
| The New York correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial telegraphs as fol-
lows:
Judge Cardozo has disdained to make
any statement explaining how it has hap
pened during the last four years, that when
his go-between, GratZ Nathan, drew mon
ey in bank, it passed immediately to Car
dozo's credit in the same bank, the aggre-
gate of said deposits exceeding thirty
thousand dollars. Cardozo has declined to
communicate with reporters on the sub
ject, on the ground that it would be I'M
dignified and contrary to his settled rule.
But the most damaging revelations yet
made about Cardozo are published to-day
The official record of Blackwell's Island,
shows that in four years Cardozo has re-
leased one hundred and sixty criminals,
many of them the vilest and most danger
Gus in New York. They were sentenced
for an average of six months, but served
less than a single month. Adelaide Beau
mont, keeper of n house of the very worst
character shows she was charged five
thousand seven hundred dollars before she
could obtain her release on hdbe0S, and
that she was finally discharged and per-
mttted to resume her vile business. Large
amounts were obtained in the same way
from others. In some instances, prisoners
were brought from the island by officers in
charge at night, taken to the house of the
Judge, the latter granting hobeds, and
while the prisoner and officers remained
on the sidewalk, the lawyer of the Grim
inal went into the Judges house and re-
turned with an order of discharge. Albert
Meyers, gambler, got out for eighteen
hundred dollars, and now owns the game
keno. The father of a hayward young
man rescued his son for two hundred dol
lars, paid to go-between lawyer. Judge
Barnard dabbled in the same business, but
discharged only forty to Cardozos one
dred and sixty.
