Tbe Coiorcd Republicans and Northern
sectarinns-N What Would They Dor

IL is cay to see that II the Republican
party were fully resolved to discover itself
from the Aut-Catholic movement. the
undertaking would be one very difficult
Of accomplishments 1t might prove i'm
possible; but, If possible, would it not be
fraught with great dangerY
In the first place, let us consider the
probable effect on the colored constitu-
sncy of the South. or these people very
large proportion are Methodsts, or pos
sessed of stroug and ardent Methodist
tympathies. They know little of what
there il in the written Constitution, and
still less of tradition and usages; and
neither n third term nor n tenth term
would have any terrors TO them, If II
were only filled by one whom they could
regard rs "a man and Il brother" These
ignorant but enthusiastic people are
represented TO he for Gen. GRANT for n
third term on the Anti-Catholic issue. 81
have been asked to speak for the SOUTH"
paid Bishop HAVEN, when, in the Boston
meeting, he ardently requested the Method
lst clergy ana brethren 10 pray for the
denomination OF Gen. GRANT. Is II TO be
supposed that he had not long before had
the colored Methodist preachers and the
oolored Methodist brethren at the South
praying for the same thingl These peo-
pie are in earnest and very strongly
Inclined to act aud TO vote Us they have
prayed.
What, then, would be the effect on
them, OF an abrupt and violent dissolution
Of the copartnership between the Repub-
hcans and the Anti-CatholIcsl Would
they adhere to the Republican party after
that, or would they be estranged and
driven from its supportf And SO with re-
ngious enthusiasts at the North: Would
not such Il step produce u like alienation
Of Them
The Republican party will pause before
Il decides to cut OF and destroy the great
Anti-Catholic element OF its strength and
that pause, in itself, renders il practical!
impossible for the Republican party ever
to regain the already forfeited conndenc,
of the Catholics

The Animus Of our Assault on Mr..
nrechcr.

The correspondence, which we publish
this morning between Mr.. BEEcnEK's
Assistant Publ her KING and the editor OF
the Christlichcr IA uudSol,dtter, Is both
valuable and interesting. SIR. king
probably little expected to encounter in
the German editor "A writer SO bold in the
uttcraucc Of his opinions and 50 uncom-
promising in the formation of them. We
are bound to say also that in taking THE
sun as his guide through the intricacies of
the BEEcHEH scandal, the German editor
chose just and prudent leader, and one
that has directed his Judgment TO the right
conclusions.
But even without our help, n man so
manifestly capable of reasoning for him
self must have reached the same con-
illusions after balancing the evil
dcncc i'm the case. What has saved NJ.
BEEcnER with the many good people who
refuse to accept.the proof Of his crimes, is
the fact that they will not follow their
reason in studying the question of his
guilt or innocence, but, utterly unwilling
TO believe man they have so highly es-
teemed to be 80 black criminal rs de-
| csion against him would imply, they take
council Of their wishes, their feelings,
rather than OF their judgments and intel
lects. THIS is not surprising. Mr.. BEECHER,
| being guilty man, is an awful criminal
| lie seducad the wife OF his friend and
pupil, taught her that adultery with
| him was no sin and induced her to lie
| IN his behalf until she had so thor
ougnly learned the lesson that she was
ready to add perjury to falsehood.
He himself spent days in swearing with
great solemnity Of manner that he had not
done what he had repeatedly confessed TO
| others he had done and that with tears
and great mental agony. The friends to
whom he went for succor in his sorrow,
terror, and apprehension of exposure, he
swore before GoD perjured themselves
when they testified to his confessions. In
return for the sympathy and comfort he
craved and got from them, he cast on them
the imputation Of perjury This is dread
full accumulation Of crimes to rest OF
the head OF a minister who still presumes
to preach the gospel.
We are not surprised at the horror with
which our German friend regards sucl
crimes. Even the imputation OF thcm
should silence the voice Of n preacher in
the pulpit until he wipes of the spots on
his character. Yet Mr.. BEEcHER carrie.

lady, IL member Of his church, swore tina
ho was an adulterer, and now declare
that he Is an adulterer and a perjurer, ye

Gov. rildcn Decide. for Himself.

We have already expressed the amazc-
mont which w felt at the statement that
GOV. TiLDEN referred TO his Private Sccrc-
tary the case Of JouN D0LNN, for him to
decide whether II further respite should
be granted to the prisoner or not. 1t was
at variance with the character which we
had been in the habit OF attrbuting TO
Gov. Tu.DEN. So astonishcd were We that
we could h1rdly credit tho account when
it first appeared But it was published in
the daily Journals generally, aud stood for
several days uucOntradictud. Then We
commented on It..
Now, the Governors Private Secretary
addresses us letter saying the statement
was erroneous. We are very glad to hear
IT. The life of the vericst wretch, until he
is legally convicted of n capital offence, Is
rs sacred before the law us that of the
President Of the United states. The Gov
ernor has no higher duty TO perform than
that OF looking personally into all eases OF
conviction whore the penalty is death.
The letter of Nj. STEnBINs Will be found
in another part Of this paper.
