IS THIS SUM OF VTLLAINIES
AND QUINTESSENCE OF
ABOMINATIONS.''
NO BETRAYAL IN THE CASE.


Instead of betraying the Repub-
lican party of Tennessee, by op-
posing the co-education of the races,
I would be traitor to that party
were TO act otherwise. The Re-
publican white vote of Tennessee
is largely in excess of the whole
colored vote of the State. and be-
side rejecting the sentiments of
my political opponents, who are en-
titled to some consideration in a
question of this character, am re-
flectinc the views of almost every
white man in the Republican ranks.
In my election to the Senate I
gave no other pledge than my past
personal and official course guaran-
teed. The question of Civil
Rights" as embodied in mixed
schools was not an issue, nor did it,
in any sense, enter into the contest.
Had it been an issue before the
Legislature, and had / been its adj
vocate, would have made poorer
race than did the late Mr.. Greeley
for the Presidency. And L am free
to say there has never been an hour
of my life when l would have accept
ed an election to any Office on that
platform. Since my election to the
Senate | have voted in Congress
for the kuklux bill and for every
measure which my friend or preted-
ed friend of the colored race has in
1o.v
his interests, except this mixed
school bill.
have done all these things for
the colored race without owing my
election to it or having the reno
test idea of ever being a candidate
for its votes OF support. I have
acted from a sense of duty and be-
cause of a sincere and unselfish
desire to ameliorates its condition.
/ do not refer to my services to the
colored people by way of apology
for my opposition to the mixed
schools. My position on this ques-
tion is the result of mature delibera-
tion. 1t has the approval of my
judgement and concience. and soon
er than apologize for it, / would see
every political organization in the
land go the way Of Wards ducks"
and every politician buried without
a hope of resurrection.
So far from betraying the colored
people or violating any pledges to
them as insolently and falsely
charged by delegates in this Nash
vile Convention, who seems TO have
reversed Taney's decision and pro-
claimed. in substance. that a white
man has no rights which a negro is
bound to respect, ] have, since at
tanning power as Governor and
Senator, done far more for the col
ored race than / was even commit
ted or pledged to do and more than
they had q right TO demand in view
OF the issues of the canvass upon
which went into office.
And now because / adhere to
principles OF practical utility in
stead OF trimming wild after 0bstrac-
tions. am denounced as recreant
to duty and pledges IL the mem-
bers of the late Colored Convention
can afford to present to the world |
such evidence Of base ingratitude

THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL
AND THE SCHOOLS.

EDITORS CHRONICLE Perhaps it
IS not necessary that an expression
should be bad from the people, as to
whether they are ready and willing
that Congress should say. bv actual
law, that the white race and the col
ored are socially equal. but then
again it may be. In either case,
however. the good people of Grain
ger county are not willing to be ST.
lent spectators of the conflict so per
sistently urged upon them, not only
by the Legislators at the capital Of
the nation, but even by the coIored
conventions. which have called them,
selves together in some places in the
State
If the eolored people desire that
the colored children have the benefit
of public schools they would do we'll,
and more than well, to stop upon
the threshold of the great waste and
miserable ruin into which their vain
desire is about to lead them. Under
the school law as it stands upon the
statute books of Tennessee TODAY
the colored people have an equal
benefit with the white race; but
change that law, as the civil rights
men would do, and the necessary re-
suit would be, that no tax would be
levied, no schools would be in exist
ence, and more still would result.
An absolute bitterness would spring
up, bringing in its train all the evils
that a strife Of that nature could en-
gender. There is not n County
Court in the State, we are persuad-
ed, and we positively know that the
magistrates here would emphatically
refuse to levy tax for school pur-
poses, and the people without ex-
ception of party or color. would say
at the ballot box, ''well done" The
colored people here do not want
their children placed in the same
school house with the white children,
even though it could be done. They,
as the white people, demand separ-
ate schools. They feel that social
equality, as contemplated by some,
can never he. They know that if
they were to have the law for mixed
schools. that in rearching forth their
hands for that, they would grasp
nothing.
1t may sound well in theory, but
the thing won't harness. There is
no government power on earth that
can change the feeling of society, or
render void the law that nature has
seen proper to make. No power on
earth can cause the social equality
of the races to be recognized. And
whenever the barriers, that nature
has seen fit to build up, are attacked
by the puny power of man. nature
herself rises in her omnipotence and
stamps the impudent offender with
her seal OF crushing shame.
There are but two ways, and Con-
gress of course will select the one
that seems to suit its interest, per-
hdps, and the colored people may
elect. They can have the law or
they can have the school. One or
the other can not be.
We do not write as a politician,
nor yet as a private person, but we
write az the peoples officer, and ex-
pressing their open and declared in
tention. and we ask our representa-
tives not to disregard our wishes on
the floors of Congress.

Il General Skirnish Abou Little
Rock.
LITTLE Rock, May 13.--The par
ties had sharp skirmish yesterday
with varied results. The Federal
forces interferred and the mobs re-
turned to their quarters Baxterites
lost horse and one man slightly
wounded. 1t Is reported that the
Brookites had eight men killed and
wounded.
As soon as the skirmish in the
outskirts was known in the city Col. q
Rose gave orders to have it stopped.
One company was formed behind
the barricade facing paxter's line
with loaded guns and got ready to
prevent their advance. Another
company, under the command Of
Lieut.. Noble. aud marching towards
the battlefield halted hale way and
an officer went ahead. brooks men
were behind the rifle pits on the side
Of the hill, which were thrown up
where Morkham street was being
graded. The firing bad been quite
brisk on both sides, and Baxter's
forces had been driven over oppo-
site the hill between two of the Cai-
70 and Fulton railroad buildings.
The forces were about three hun-
dred yards apart. Col. Rose was
soon seen riding towards Baxter's
lines. which had then moved back
towards tile city
Lieutenant Morrison and Colonel
Rose both galloped to different
points to stop the firing, but their
efforts were Intellectual however, and
firing now became sharper and near
er the city. The regulars marched
between but soon came back to their
original position. The firing be-
tween the pickets was now intermit-
tent. Baxter sent out infantry TO
support White. When few blocks
from the State House and passing it,
they fred at Brooks picIxets. His
company one block from the State
House fired volley back, and the
Baxterites retreated in good order.
Several were seen to fall. Brooks
forces were under immediate COM
mand of Colonel Brizzolari. To-
wards evening King Whites CON-
mand moved back towards the end
of the town. Fighting during the
afternoon occurred in the early set
tied part of the city. The women
and children were scared, Lieu
tenant Morrison. pf Regulars, was
shot at three times by one man. a
Baxterite Lieutenant Morrison was
on horseback at the time and en-
deavoring to prevent bloodshed. fIe
drew a pistol to return the fire but

Republican. will guard and advance
their interests, as we'll as protect
their right, they could not do bet
ter than to select Mr.. Butler.
Granger accuses him of the Of
fence of at one time having worn
the judicial ermine.'' He is no
doubt guilty, yet he has never been
accused of having trailed that robe
in the dirt. or bedabbling it in the
filthy pool of politics. Then where,
Bfr. Granger, is the crime?
He is also accused of having been
in Congress for several terms. That
may be a disgrace, but it seems that
some friend of Granger (who
knows but himself. is anxious to be
disgraced in that way. However the
only direct charge made by Gran
ger is "he was a Judge is a
member of Congress, is Repub-
lican,' IF these three offences are
sufficient to damn a man, Mr.. Butler
must plead guilty, and is therefore
damned.
Suppose your people send. in Mr..
Buffers place, Democrat that is an
G1tti-OdnainGstratio3t 1edn, what will
they gain? He would be in antago-
nism with the majority of Congress,
with the administration and Govern
ment officials. Now l want to put
this question to you: If your friend
and your enemy both ask favor of
you. to which would you grant it.?
Is not human nature the same ev-
erywhere?
You will not find in Congress a
dozen anti-administration. men who
will ask of the Government what
they call ''a favor If you call on
them to do anything for you. they
will reply as a rule. i am a demo-
crat, it is no use for me to ask any
thing the result is most apparent.
Their constituents lose many things
they might otherwise secure. l can
illustrate this point by fact.
A few years ago there was va
cant Internal Revenue Collectorship
in the 9th District of Tennessee.
There were in that District good
men, ana true, 1ully capable ana
qualified to discharge the duties of
the office. The member from that
District was a Democrat. He could
not recommend a Republican. The
President could not accept his rec
Omendation of a Democrat, even
though he was disposed to make one.
The result was, a gentleman from a
different section of the State was ap-
pointed on the recommendation of
member of Congress who did not
know single soul in that District,
and Collector transported nearly
the length of the State to take the
position.

one of the few advantages P follow,
