clusion is left now that the mass OF
the people North must be the vilest
hypocrites or the most consumate
fools to allow their political leaders
to so often practice upon their
credulity.
We publish these things with the
nope that the Northern people may
at some time see, that all the many
reports circulated in regard to the
Southern cruelty and lawlessness,
are but baseless fabrications manu-
factured by unprincipled politicians
to effect elections, and to continue
and render more stringent the fed>
eral bayonet over our heads. Be-
fore all general and important elec%
tions these reports are given cur"
reacy, but they have so often
proven false that we should think
it were time that the Southern
States were accorded the privilege
claimed by those of the North, viz {:
self government without the dicta-
ton of federal authority.

UsURPATION OF POWER.

Our sterling exchange, the Pc
,tersburg Newa thns comments on
the unwonted impudence of the
I. S. Attorney General in regard
to the distribution of troops in the
South.
Attorney General Williams has
addressed a letter to the Secretary
of War, designating the localities
in the south in which troops are
NEST needed to suppress alleged
outrages, and Gen. Mcdowell has
been instructed to distribute his
forces SO as to protect the locals
ties designated. Was it ever cus~
tomary before in the history Of this
government for the Attorney Gen
eral of the United States, who is
simply an attorney of the nation
a mere legal adviser of the Press
ident-to order the movement of
troops? We have thought that
such action belonged exclusively to
the President himself by express
provision Of the constitution which
makes him commander-in>ch.ef of
the army and navy" and that he
has no power to transfer his PEI
rogative to any civil officer of the
government, and that not even a
a commanding general could mos
ton his troops without the order of
the President. But now it seems
that the small and mischievous
politician who occupies the civil
position Of Attorney General has
been made commander in chief"
and has been clothed with all the
powers of the President,
and instructed to issue orders even
to Gen. Mcdowell and other com>
manding officers
Well, there is no telling to where
we are drifting. Certain it is we
are not travelling the old beaten
track prescribed by the constitution
and adhered to by the fathers of
the country.

The judicial imbroglio of the sec~
ond district has been brought to a
elimination. The first court of the
circuit being at Hertford, both the
Judges. Moore and Hilliard, were
on the ground to oficiate, but the
Sheriff seeing no use for two justi-
ces refused to obey Moore and
acknowledged Hilliard as judge.
In our opinion it would be much
more dignified, and much more con-
ducive to the public welfare, for
Judge Moore to cease such a scuf,
file for the bench and bring his quo
ca1ranto and settle the matter by
law. 1t presents rather disgrace
full sight to see two men claiming
such an Office as that of judge and
rushing over the country in fierce
contest to see who can get on the
bench first and hold the court.

Hon. Robert Toombs. of Geor-

Hon. Robert Toombs, Of Geor~
gia, since the reported declaration
to a Herald correspondent of hi'
intention to support Grant for a
third term, has received some severe
thrusts from the Southern papers
The Memphis Avalanche concludes
a bitter article with this savage
outburst:
after Toombs has been ostensi>
bly, devoting his life and interests to
Constitutional liberty, and growing
eloquent in a learned essay on Mag
ma Charta, he fings both to the
flames and goes for Grant and his
third term, because he confesses
himself unequal in statemanship tc
meet the demands of thepresent and
future. The true level of the
Toombs school ofpolitics has been
happily reached. We suppose to'
tai destruction of the American
Government would delight Toombs
providing he could be a member Of
the Privy Council or President ot
the Star Chamber.
