PAINFUL ACCIDENT.

We regret to learn that Mr.. Preston B.
Acl;er met with a painful accident on Friday
last. He was telling timber in the woods
near his mothers residence, four miles south
of Anderson, and in trimming up tree, the
axe glanced from the wood and struck his
left foot, inflicting horrible gaah, and di-
viding an artery, which gave much trouble
to the physicians in trying to check the
eopious flow of blood from the wound. Mr..
Acker was brought to town Immediately
after the occurrence, and received the skill
full attention of DR.. Nardin and others. He
is getting along bravely with his injury, and
we trast will have speedy recovery.

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-02-05

HoN. Mr.. WHITEHEAD, of Virginia,
must have been greatly mortified by the
course of Mr.. Brown, of Kentucky, in the
House yesterday. Only the day before Mr..
W. had said that the Republicans wished
TO provoke disturbance; but the South, he
said, would not be provOked-they would
observe the laws. The only effect would
be that they would trade direct with Eng
land, even if they only obtained three
fourths of the price for their cotton and
tobacco by so doing. The generosity OF
Mr.. Whitehead in going bail for his South
ern friends is only equaled by that of con-
tracing their cotton and tobacco to Eng
land for them at seventy five per cent. of its
value, and it is to be presumed that the latter
portion of his prophesy will be verified to
about the same degree as has the former.
The Southern people are quite as partial to
the principle of ''buying cheap and selling
dear" as their ''hated Yankee cousins"

cratic national convention the rights Of a
majority went for nothing, and that the
peculiar views Of Southern Democrats led
them to regard Stephen A. Douglas as an
enemy to the Constitution and the majority
of the Democracy, unworthy of Southern
confidence
"Mulattoes" was the name then given to
Northern Democrats, and the bayonets of
Grant are not now more fiercely denounced
by the Southern Conservatives than Doug
las advocacy of non-intervention with
slavery in the territories was then. The
fact is, the Southern fox is just as honest in
his wish to control the barnyard now as he
was then. His indignation at all Interrupt
tons is sincere; but he presumes greatly
upon the credulity of Northern men if he
hopes to escape opposition. He will hardly
cry down his opponents by mere profes.
sions, for we have learned something by
the lessons of the past. If he may accuse
us of efforts 10 destroy liberty, and still
violate no propriety; If he may
give the loud lie to all Republi.
can disavowals Of evil designs
upon the Constitution, then he must listen
calmly to his opponents when they tell him
that they believe he intends TO ride rough
shod over all who will stand It, and that he
intends to deny the black men Of the South
their share Of political power. If the
blacks vote the Democracy cannot re-estab.
llsh the dynasty that went down in 1850.
If the blacks do not vote the restoration Is
at hand. This Is the issue. The hand Of
the Southern Democracy was at the throat
of the nation while its voice was pathetic
ally pleading for the Union. The rebel
government at Montgomery had adherents
at Washington in 1861 expoundlng the
Constitution. Southern foxes explained to
Northern geese how wrong it would be
for the latter TO avoid the former by pur-
suing certain roads. The howl against
missing seventy.fiVe thousand troops to de-
fend the National Capital was as loud and
apparently as honest as the recent denun-
Citations Of national protection Of the State
Of Louisiana against domestic violence.
Let the debate 60 on good-naturedly, and
let the Southern Democrat submit to being
accused of false pretences as cheerfully as
he makes such accusations against his op-
ponents

A PLEA FnP GOOD NATURE.

The ruffied manner Of some of our Dem
ocratic friends, especially from the South,
in discussions upon Southern affairs, seems
entirely uncaIed for. Why cannot a spirit
Of good nature pervade these discussions
To be sure, when the motives and inten-
lions Of men come up for discussion, ardent
natures are apt to become heated; but if
Southern men will realize the fact that they
have no right to monopoly Of the business
of becoming heated, much will be gained.
To illustrate: The irate Southern Demo
crat is undoubtedly honest in his opinion,
so often expressed, that we Republicansare
bent upon overthrowing civil liberty; push.
ing Federal bayonets through the parch-
ment on which the Constitution is re-
corded; forcing the negro, however igno-
rant, ragged and dirty, into social COM
panionship with the refined and polished
white gentlemen and ladies of the land;
and finally, that what we most desire is to
see the property-owners Of the South plum
dered by political adventures from the
North. If the irate Southerner did not
DGllShG luCSC lulh5eJ AC "Oulu HUI Say
them. Per contra, the Radical Republi-
can, who has had experience with the
modes of Southern Democratic politics, be-
lieves that as the Constitution, as amended,
imposes an obligation upon the United
States Government to prevent the killing
and manning of negroes, and the frighten-
ing of them away from the polls, it is right
and proper that the purposes Of the South
ern Democracy TO render nugatory
the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments to the Constitution should be
resisted. This cannot be done without a
statement of their purposes. We cannot
doubt that the Southern Democracy mean
business in their war upon the negro.
We believe that Reynard the fox
would be as safe protector for chickens
as a Southern Democrat would be of
the constitutional rights Of political oppo-
nents of srEatsUsr color. We believe the
great outcry in behalf Of civil liberty in
the South, and against restraining bayo-
nets, TO be gigantic sham and false pre-
tence. The liberty of ruling, whether in
the minority or the majority, is what we
understand to be the aim of the Southern
Reynard. Men who supported Douglas in
1860 remember well that even In Demo

MOB LAW THE HnnsE.

The dis graceful episode in the proceed
ings of the House yesterday, in which
Hon. John Young Brown, of Kentucky,
was the provocative actor, will be found
very fully reported in other columns this
morning. Each reader will comment upon
the spectacle for himself If there is any
one thing which more than another tends
TO weaken the faith of patriots in the capa-
city of the American people for selfgov-
eminent, it is an exhibition of this char
acter Men who are devoid of that self
control necessary to the proper observance
Of the rules of the House and the courtesies
of debate may pretty safely be set down as
unfit to make laws for the government of
others. Those who deliberately and per-
sistently infringe rules of their own max.
ing for the qualification Of personal preju-
dice or malice may be expected, upon fan
cied provocation, to commit or counsel
others to commit just such breaches of the
laws of the land as have recently been per-
petrated in various portions of the South.
The spirit which prompts the one is pre-
cisely the same which enacts the other.
1t is the setting of oneself above the law.
1t is the spirit of mob law. And a masked
mob is 'fbanditti. Banditti is deliber-
alive, preconcerted, organized mob. 1t
wears the insignia Of cowardice and out
lawry.
Such scenes as that of yesterday are
utterly indefensible. They are inconsistent
with S'the character of well-qualifed legis-
lators. Calling names is neither argument
nor sophistry. 1t recoils upon the person
who indulges in it. 1t does not necessarily
injure the intended victim. We have the
highest authority for believing that it is
''that which cometh out of the mouth which
"defileth the man." Judged by this rule
it is fearful to contemplate the degrees of
pollution which some of our public men
have attained.
What course of action the House owed to
its history in the matter was, of course, for
itself to determine. What degree of charity
the principles of the golden rule may have
dictated under the circumstances is not for
us to say. A fault deliberately COM
mitted and persistently and deiantly ad-
hered to without the first sign of penitence
or shame for its preparation does not ap-
peal very strongly TOR mercy and forgive
ness even to the divine attributes. In
future generations the character OF the
House will be judged by its record. If the
members of the present Congress are salts
fed with the vindication of its fair fame
which they achieved last evening perhaps
their constituents ought to be also. Let us
hope that the effect will be salutary and

The Late Hon, Nathan Sargent,

At meeting of the clerks of the Commissioner
Of Customs, held on February 4, 1875, Henry A.
Lockwood, ESQ.,, acting commissioner, presiding
in the absence Of Hon. Henry G. johnson, Com
missioner, detained at his home by severe illness
the following resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That we have heard with deep regret
the announcement Of the death Of Hon. Nathan
Sargent, who for more than ten years presided
over this bureau, and who endeared himself to us
in that relation by HIS uniform courtesy and Kind
ness, and by the strong interest which he ever
manifested for the welfare and happiness Of those
placed under his charge.
Resolved, That in our judgment his services in
the Treasury Department, while he held the Office
of Commissioner of Customs, were of the highest
value 10 the Government, as he entered upon its
duties at one Of the most critical periods ia the
nations history, and devoted all his powers and
energy TO sustain the Union, OF which he was ever
one Of the Warmest supporters, and to the serVice
OF which he was willing to consecrate his life.
Resolved, That his love for his country and for
free institutions was so strong and 80 that
all who were here associated with him In public
duties, felt his power and influence In this re-
spect, and were led to thus value more highly the
liberties secured to them by the Constitution for
which he had so profound q reverence.
Resolved, That in the various official relations
tinguished himself by the faithful, prompt and
fearless performance Of every duty incumbent
upon him, and that thus he has LEFT precious
record worthy to be emulSted by all in positions
Rcsolrsd, That we tender to his bereaved widow
and TO his family our sympathy In their SAD be-
reayement and We trust they may be eonsoled IN
their great sorrow by the recollection Of the count
less exeelleneies Of character which caused him
to be SO strongly beloved by all who knew him,
and which now make him so deeply lameuted.
ReSolred, That in testimony Of our regard for
him, and OF our appreciation and gratitude for the
many instances OF his kindness Of which we have
so vivid a remembrance, the clerks OF this oftice
will attend his funeral ceremonies in body.
Resolved. That copy Of these resolutions be
communicated to his bereaved family.

REpUB11cAE EEWsPAPER oPIEIoN.

In Washington and New York timid pol
iticians of the Republican stripe are too
prone TO accept the dictum of the so-called
Great DailieS Of the latter city as reflections
of current opinion. There never was a
greater mistake. The people generally
know who the editors of those journals are,
and knowing them despise them. The
press Of the country at large is at war with
them on common grounds, and on the Re-
publican side is unanimous in its opposition
to the opinions expressed by them regard
ing the present political situation. In short,
the tone of the Republican press outside the
city of New York is in thorough accord,
with such expressions as the following from
the New Haven Journal and Courier:
ave dislike exceedingly to be obliged to
make these statements concerning the Democ-
racy. We have no sympathy with the bloody
shirt style Of appeal, and are not in the habit
of playing 'alarmist, as our readers will con-
cede. But when ugly facts are distinctly visible,
as these ugly facts are, we cannot help seeing
them and drawing logical conclusions from
them. When the Confederate General B. H.
Hill says that the real rebels are the people of
the North, that the South was right in seed
ing, and that he is ready for another war, and
when these sentiments are vigorously ap-
plauded by his hearers and not repealed by the
Northern Democrats, the Republican party is
certainly justified in listening to his Grafton
and taking him at his word. When the Mis-
souri, Democrats elect an ex-rebel (Cockrell)
as Senator merely because he is still an avowed
secessionist, and when his election is hailed
with shouts of joy by crowd of self-confessed
unrepentant rebels, it is certainly time for the
people to pause and reflect upon the signs Of
the times. About eighty sx-rebel officers ana
soldiers are to take seats in the next Congress.
No one could object to that if they have aban-
doncd their former hostility to the Union and
intend to accept the principles which the war
decided. But they intend to do nothing of the
sort. They are not reconciled to the result of
the war. They are rebels still at heart, and
they are beginning to inform all men Of the
fact. They are beginning to confess what has
been suspected by many all long, namely, that
they do not consider themselves beaten yet
that the ApPomattox victory was only tempo
rary, and that they are destined TO win in the
end. These are not fancy statements. They
are the very words which the Southern Demo-
Gratis, encouraged and elated by the Democratic
victories in the North, are saying everywhere
at this present moment, both by tongue and
newspaper. This being the case, the people
Of the North can hardly help taking careful
and anxious notice Of the alarming facts so
plainly presented"
