right of self government, although she
had been the first to plant the seed of
Anglo empire upon this
continent. and had so often and so
bravely defended it from those who
were unwilling to see 1t grow. But
she did not yield to jgnoble despair Oh
that account. When she found that it
was designed to place her under the
heel of the negro, she called her SOILS
together and told them that they must
save her from that disgrace, but to do
it they must bury all recollections of
former feuds and divisions. They did
it. They did save their mother from
the shame and disgrace of such a spec
tacle. She still lifts up her face to the
world unspotted, unsulied, and BEAM

When Spring returns with dewy fingers cold,
To deck tho turf which keeps their hallow ed mould
She there shall dress a sweeter sod

By fairy hands their knell is rung;

To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair
To dwell a weeping hermit there"

FROM THE CHATTANOOGA
REPUBLICAN.

There are but two radical daily
papers in Tennessee, and both are
published by Post Masters. Here
is what one of them says.-ED.
News.
The President. some mouths ago,
expressed the opinion that it would
be necessary for the Republican par
ty to 'unIoad," but the efforts of the
party have not been sufficiently rapid
and effective in that direction, and
the people are simply helping the
work along a little, Ii the party
learns the lesson properly, which
these revorseS are calculated to teach
all will be well with it two years from
to>day; if not it will GO to destruc-
ton, and some other party organiza-
ton will rise up to carry into effect
Its political principles.
The Democrats will unquestiona-
bly, have the next House of Represent
tatiyes but there is no ground for
alarm among Republicans as to the
future sscendercy of their party, if
they wall resolve shat it shall serve
the people and be controlled by the
people Ben. Butler was able to
pack and control the party conven
ton in his district. but he could not
stuff the bsiiots of Republican party
voters into the ballot box. If party
success we're the only consideration,
we should not now think of swapping
parties with Democrat in order to
attain 1t.
This sounds rsther well, but it
comes a little toe late. You re-
fused to unload and the people
have now taken the JOB eff your
hands and they are unloading you,
so suddenly chat your heads are
swimming.

TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 10. 1874.

TIE Deluge came last Tuesday,
but it was a deluge Of light. For
nine long years this people have
endured namoless agony, until it
became problem whether the hb~
critics of which our fathers boosted
were not irretrievably lost. AS
the smoke of the conflict clears
away we witness the most stupen-
dous victory since the foundation
of the republic. Last Tuesday the
people Of twenty-four States ar
raigned radicalism, and in every
one of themit has been condemned.
In nineteen it has been bound hand
and foot and cast into outer dark
ness. Massachusetts has brought
forth her old guns, with which a
hundred years ago, she sent frater-
nal greeting to Virginia, and with
them has Numbered the second
death knell of imperial power on
the continent. Pennsylvania stand-
ing on her geographical basis of
iron and coal has raise d herself
once more through radical chains
into the realm of free thought and
free speech. Nevada in the far
west answers to the glad shout
South Carolina even puts on the
robes of semi-decency and Louisiana
washes herself and sits in queenly
beauty, the picture of redemption.
New York has hauled down the
flag of Dix under threat of his
"shoot him on the srot," and New
Jersey wheels into line.
This is the one bright revolution
Of this age. Before it the most
dospotic party of the world must
bow. To this euroclydon must
kneel and uncrown the first of our
presidents who ever allowed the
people to doubt or fear that at the
end of Tie second term he would
refuse lay down the high charge of
the Chief Magistracy. This verdict
arraigns as high crime the muir
der OF Louisiana. 1t is mightier
than Congress, and it sweeps the
Civil Rights BIZ into the sea.

A Faithful officer,

The Dispatch yesterday announced
the death Of the venerable JOSEPH
JACKSON, so long a faithful officer in
the Auditors office of the capitol. 1t
is a remarkable fact that in this age
of faithlessness and corruption Vir-
ginia has Just had final parting with
one of her officers who has held his
post for sixty years, and against
whose official integrity no man was
ever heard to utter a whisper, For
those sixty years men have come and
gone: have figured, have failed, have
died; scandal has done its work; envy
has punctured character, and men
have been turned out of place to
make room for party hacks and often
incompetent office-hunters, and yet
no man has uttered a word against
JOSEPH JACKsoN--no man has sought
his place, Thousands have entered
to Auditors Office and have transact
ed business with the deceased; but no
man has left the Office with a com.
plant against him. either as to his
manner or as to the correctness of
his accounts. He was always polite,
always accurate, always faithful to
his duties.
Here is character to be ambitions
of. Here is reputation of mans
relatives and friends to be proud Of,
1t is an example to young men; it is
the object of general admiration 1t
is one in some sort Virginian, The
lamented Mr.. JACKSON was reared
amongst men of the highest character,
and at time when the public virtue
was both bright and elevated. He
prOfted by the spirit and the morals
Of the splendid age in which he was
educated, and he dies respected, hon
oreG. and loved, without an enemy.
What should not man be willing to
give that he may fall into the grave
like this stainless public officer-this
irreproachable Virginiau, Richmond
Dispatch.
