Becchcr and Christianity.

From the Chicago Tribune.l
The real eneAies of Christianity in
this matter are those who seek To i'll
volve religion somehow in the down.
fall Of Beecher; and let us say right
here that, up to the present time we
have not heard one s%cetfer, one intidel,
attempt 10 do so. On the contrary,
the only ones who have sought to con-
struct a yoke between Beecher and
Christianity, SO that if one falls the
other shall 60 down likewise, are pro
fessed Christians. We have no words
to express our contempt for that sort
of Christianity which couples the fate
of religion with every rascal who has
stolen its livery to serve the devil in
The duty OF the genuine Christian in
such u case is to thank God they are
rid Of knave. Even Dsgberry had
wit enough for that. In almost every
case where the attempt is made to as
s~ociate the cause of religion with the
religious hypocrite, prcvaricatiSn, dou
BILE dealing and downright dishonesty
ensue. If, on the other hand, Chris.
lians would look upon an accused per.
son wearing the Christian name as
they look upon any other person, and
judge him by the same rules as they
judge another, remembering that, if he
is guilty, he has sinned more against
the church than against society al
large, they would powerfully support
and strengthen their own cause and
give no room for scoffers and unhe'
levers to say that they are all alike
They are not all alike. They differ
from each other just as the worlds
people differ from each other. They
have rascals in their midst, and they
ought to assist in exposing them when
exposure comes.

TRUE AS
Gov. Hendricks on the Southern
Troubles.

In his speech at Indianapolis, a few
DAYS since, Gov. Hendricks said:
my countrymen, we must look
squarely and honestly at this question
Of the strife between the two races,
During the war, when the Southern
men we're off in the field, there were nc
Instructions. The colored people pre-
served the peace at home. After the
close of the war, there was harmony
between the races until your unfor-
lunate policy Of reconstruction was
started. In that you undertook to
base the machinery of society upon
one element, and to exclude intelli-
gence. You stripped the white mai
of political privileges, and clothed tho
negro with political power. The races
had been harmonious, but at once and
for a purpose you placed them in hos
tile attitude. You left many of the
hangers-on of the army in the South
men who went not to fight, but Ia
plundcr. They were your emisssries
they organized the negroes into a po-
litical party. In every neighberhoeo
they formed them into oath bound Sc
cret societies, called loyal leagues
They were sworn to stand together
In these societies, from which the
Southern white man was excluded
they were taught to regard the white
man as their enemies, and that they
would soon receive their property
Thus they were arrayed in antagonism
TO the whites. The work was done
thoroughly, and by it you held peliti
cal power in many States. But those
States are crushed and ruined now
We cannot, We must not, 60 on in this
direction. The welfare OF cur country
calls for a change, Men must be
placed in power who will relieve society
from these dangerous influences; who
will stand honestly between the two
races, and see to it that each is fairly
and fully protected in its rights; who
will see that harmony, based upon jus
tice, is restored, so that labor shall be
secure and capital shall not be afraid

AHEAD OF HIS PARTY.
What they say About Maynard at
WasilingtOn-Ciyil Rights az a
Boost to the Vice
Presidency.

From the Chicago Tribune
Mr.. Horace Maynard has venturec
something upon the dark and tempes
tuous sea OF Independent politics, will
which he has heretofore been scarcel,
acquainted, by approving and prom
Using to support un~oquivocally the new
Civil Rights bill. The convention
which nominated him avoided this
issue. He is, therefore, in advance oI
his party, and may expect to be &C.
cused OF treachery by his party asso-
%cietes, We rejoice that he has come
down from the fence the event will
show whether he has come down OF
the wrong side for political prefer
meat. The suspicion in Washington
is that he does not expect to be elect
ed Governor, but is making a bold at
tempt upon the Republican nomina
ton for Vice President in 1876. 1t i:
absurd, OF course, to suppose that Mr.
Maynard has been betrayed by honest
convictions into political suicide.

LOUISIANA USURPATION.
Proclamation Of Gov. McEnery
and Lieut.. Gov. Penn. to
the People.
n Brief History Of u Heroic
Struggle.

Fellow Citizens: You are already
aware Of the events which TRANSFERRED
ia the city of New Orleans on Monday
and Tuesday last, which resulted in
the complete overthrow Of the usurp-
ing government.
BY the prompt nd.spontancous nc
ton Of the people in the several par
lshes, this odious usurpalion has been
destroyed ciIectually, 30 that, to day
no vcstagc Of its power remains and
the government chosen and elected by
you was in full operation throughout
the State, aud in the exercise of all the
powers and functions belonging to it
AS n government de jure and de facto.
We congratulate you, fellow citizens
on the result. The people of Louis
iaua present a spectacle grandly sub.
lime, OF which they and their children
after them may well be proud. On
Monday, no longer able to bear the
oltragcs and expressions of the Kel-
logg usurpation, they flew to arms and
prepared to assert their rights. The
army 81 the usurper. his trained band
Of metropolitans, attacked them with
artillery and Infantry, and after a CON
iict, short and decisive, the people
we're victorious. The metropolitan
army was completely routed and dis.
and, on Thursday, the State
House, arsenals, and all the public
buildings and property we're abandon
and were taken into possession by
tue rightfnl government OF the State.
From that day until this perfect
peace, order and quiet prevailed in the

las been done to person or property,
nd confidence filled all hearts.

nevertheless, does not prove it to be Q

may be questioned, it may perhaps be
more conf0rmable to the divine. A

Maynard IS reported in his speech
accepting the nomination for Governor,
as saying that she thought we had
lived too long in the woods to get
scared at such an owl as the Civil
Rights question" Referring to the
fact that the Democrats had carricc
the State in the August election By
from $4,000 to 10000 majority, Ssna
tor Brownlow says Even this larg'
majority does not express the bite
hostility with which the Civil Rights
bill is regarded by the entire white pop
~ulation of the State; y and that "ha'
the Republican candidates in our cleo

the Democratic majority would NO
have been less than 100000" 1t thu
