THE PASSING CLOTU,

The condition OF affairs in several south
ern States has not been painted in too
vivid colors. The terrible lawlessness,
which the local authorities confess them
selves powerleSs to control, has confirmed
only too strongly the necessity of a regu-
lating power ut Washington. Many per-
sons at the North, without regard to their
political vaccinations, have felt that the
time had come for the general government
to retire from that field of strife, and leave
the States to work out of their difficulties
in their own way Interference hitherto
has been often misplaced, and the conse-
quences have been anything but encour-
aging to interference of any kind on the
part OF the supreme power. But what is
to be done when armed mobs take posses
sion of large districts, wreaking a cruel
vengeance, upon innocent men and wo-
men, while the local authorities lie groy-
Cling at their feet?
There are among the southern people a
peaceable and law-abiding class, which
are still persuaded that the general gov
eminent has dealt harshly with them, and
that the prevailing sentiment at the North
is full of bitterness and hostility. Some
cause for this feeling maybe found in the
local political abuses from which many of
the States have suffered grievously-
abuses committed in the name of the re-
publican party within their limits, and
with the implied sanction of that party
throughout the Union. On the contrary,
there is deep feeling of Indignation
among northern republicans at the con-
duct of many of their political associates
at the South, and of sympathy with the
people who have been outraged and plum
dered by them. Let those who are suffer-
ing under a sense of unmerited injury turn
their attention to displacing the rogues in
power, by the same legitimate means
with which all people who are not bar
barians have to comply, and they will not
have long to wait for effective co-opera-
ton at the North. and such protection as
the general government has the right to
give.
The present disturbances have not been
provoked for any such creditable purpose
and they are not directed, so far as can be
seen, against the persons who have Of
Tended by misuse of power. In Louisi-
ana, in Tennessee. in Alabama, in South
Carolina, they are the outcropping of the
ignorant prejudice inherited from the
slave system, and are apparently directed
against the most helpless and the most

THE PRESIDENT Nv EARNEST

A Washington despatch of the 4th says
The war department has been active to-day
in preparations to cooperate with the At
torney- General in carrying out the directions
of the Presidents letter in regard to the az
fairs in the South The Attorney. General
last night designated several districts in which
he thought military aid would be imme diately
required to support the marshals. The milf
tary stations in Louisiana were all determined
as follows: New Orleans, Shreveport, Alex
andria, Monroe, Harrisonburgh, St. Martins
vile and Baton Rouge. From these points
access to all the disturbed sections is easy.
The troops throughout the South will be or
dered to prepare for movement in any d.
recton upon receipt Of an order, and drec-
tions will be sent to the troops in all the
States on the border. Cabinet officers do not
hesitate to declare that the President will now
vigorously use all means in his power to en-
force order in the South and gentlemen
who have had interviews with the
President in regard to the situation rep
resent him as expressing in private still more
emphatic views than those expressed in his
letter, and giving most emphatic assurance
that the whole power of the government shall
be used to preserve order.

DEMOCRATIC RESPONSIBILITY FOR
THE PUBLIC INDEBTEDNESS AND
ON-REPUBLICAN ECONOMY

DEMOCRATIC RESPONSIBILITY Fol
THE PUBLIC INDEBTEDNESS AMI
TAXATION-REPUBLICAN ECONOMY
The democratic papers are paradins
figures to show that the country is heavily
in debt and taxes high. They might spare
themselves the trouble they take abou
this matter, for everybody knows we have
a great national debt. and that taxation i.
heavy. There is statement published ev
cry month in the newspapers, coming
from the Treasury department, telling
just what the national debt is, so tina,
there can be nothing new or startling in
announcing that the country is in debt
Neither is it any news that we are heav.
lily taxed people. That is generally I'M
derstood. Republicans do not deny it
They know and frankly say that it is So
1t is as great burden to them as to their
democratic neighbors. Ii falls equally
upon all parties. OF course we cannot
pay our Indebtedness without taxation,
for the only resource of the government
TO pay what it owes is to tax the people.
Having debt we must be taxed to pay
the interest yearly, and if we mean to pay
the principal we must be taxed also for
whatever reduction we make upon that.
Now if there is anything oppressive
about the great debt and heavy taxation
the people OF the United States are COM
PEELED to carry, democrats ought to be the
last to complain of the hardship, for if
there be one fact in our history which
stands out as clear as the sunlight, it is
that the democratic party is responsible
for the debt and taxation upon US. The
attempted secession of the South after Mr..
Lincoln became President made it neces-
sary for the government to raise armies
and wage war to prevent the dismember-
ment of the Union. The secessionists
were 10 a man, leaders and followers, OBJ
posed to the republican party. There was
not solitary republican in their ranks
jeff Davis was democrat and member
of the Cabinet of President Pierce. The
Cabinet of President Buchanan was in
harmony with the plans of the rebels, and
supplied them leaders as well as the sim
cws of war. President Buchanan was in
sympathy with them. The whole power
of his administration was cast in favor Of
secession. Forty millions of government
property had been seized by the rebels be-
fore he left the Presidential chair, without
a step taken by him to prevent it. john
c. Breckenridge was the administration
candidate for President in 1860. All DEM
ocrats were not rebels or In sympathy

harmless portion Of the disturbed com.
munities Let the conservative people of
the South look at the lawless spirit which
they have suffered to grow up among
them until it has become for the time their
master, and they will understand how dit
ficult it is for northern people to have
confidence in their power to enforce their
good intentions, and how unsafe it would
be for the general government to leave
the people who look to it for protection to
the mercy of those numbering gangs. The
President, in authorizing the use of the
military power to suppress violence and
protect all citizens in the exercise of their
rights, has done the least that he could do
under the circumstances, and will be sus-
tanned by the best sentiment OF the coun-
try, North and South.
FRED DOUGLASS on TIE SITUA-
TION.
The National Era, Fred. Douglasss paper
the representative organ Of the colored peo-
pie, gives expression to the following opinion
on the condition of affairs in the South "The
war against the negro is waged by the white
race in the South because in the first place,
of the faithfulness of the negro to the Union,
and because of the rights and privileges he
seeks to exercise under the amendments.
Whatever of evil exists in the South can be
traced directly to the resistance to the laws of
the United States by the white people of that
section. The negro seeks to use the ballot
for the protection of his life and liberty. The
White League, KuKlux Klans and color line
parties use the ballot tor vengeance, and call
in the aid of the pistol, knife and torch. The
very irst efforts of the latter class were to
make the freedom of the negro merely nom-
nal war was begun upon the freedman before
the election franchise was extended to him.
1t was kept up after the Fifteenth Amendment
became part of the Constitution, and to day
the cry is for a white mans government. The
negro race can hold its own through the ex-
erciSe of the rights of citizens, bu. it cannot
exercise these rights against the armed oppo-
sition of pardoned rebels.
