National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-04-05

THE North Carolina Democrats are be-
ginning to argue that the restrictions i'm
posed by the law providing for a conven-
tion to revise the constitution of that State
are illegal and imperative. This is as we
expected. The next step will be to repu-
diate, as ras possible, the thirteenth, four
teenth and fifteenth amendments, and to
reassert the doctrine of State rights. This
deception is Characteristic of the Southern
Democracy, and is of a piece with their
hollow Dretence of and submission to the
results of the war. They boosted
while the convention bill was pending
that they would SO prescribe the powers Of
the convention that delegates to it would
be prohibited from entertaining PROPOSE
ton inimical to the reconstruction acts or
the pledges of the Commonwealth when
the State was readmitted into the Union.
Now they are paving.the way to do the very
things they solemnly promised not to do.
Weak kneed Republicans and doughfaces
of all kinds in the North will do well to
remember'this forcible exemplifcation of
the dishonesty of their Southern brethren.
The man who puts his trust in the promises
of a Southern Democrat, unless they are
pledges to serve the interests of the Demo
cratic party, is simply an idiot.

DIR. NEWMAN began his series Oflectures,
describing his travels, at the Metropolitan
church last night. Notwithstanding
severe cold, which somewhat impaired his
delivery, he spoke for an hour and half,
commanding the attention of the large
audience throughout. He began with an
explanatory outline of the course of lee
lures which he intends to deliver, promis-
ing to give detailed sketches of his observa-
tons, and the result of his investigations
into the religions and religious customs of
mankind. He then proceeded with de-
scription of japanese farms, and an ex-
PLANTATION of two of their religious creeds,
which he did not finish, but will continue
next Sunday night. There are few better
descriptive speakers than DR.. Newman in
the country, and when he has for topic a
class of subjects like those which form the
basis of this series of lectures, he becomes
doubly interesting.

in until we learn to do 1t justice. We know that
men do not endure half century Of voluntary

TIE entire private collection of oil paintings,
belonging to George Il. Andrews, esq, the we'll
known connoisseur, who has been many years
in bringing together the $50 choice paintings of
which his gallery consists, is to be offered at
auction by Messrs. Leavitt & Co., on the even
ings of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
April Z, s and 9, at their Art Rooms, Broad
way, corner of Twelfth street, New York,
where they will be on exhibition up to the
time of sale.
The collection is valued at ninety thousand
dollars, and contains many important works
by the best known artists OF the American,
English, French, German, Dutch and Austrian
schools. In the collection are Jerome Thomp-
sons original "Old Oaken Bucket" and
"Home, Sweet Home" rare old picture by
Gerard Douw, Merle's, Bailly's, Boutabon'sl
Verbeckhoeven's, Co.'s, Sells, Koek Rocks
Robbe's, Shayer's, and works of numerous
other artists of equal reputation.
As this will be followed by Col. Chapman's
sale, which is equally important, and well
worth seeing, lovers of art throughout the
United States will have the greatest opPortu-
nifty presented in many years for securing really
first-class pictures at whatever the market
value may be. Both these sales are without
reserve and guaranteed as represented in the
catalogue, both by the Messrs. Leavitts and
the owners. Art purchasers will find this an
opportunity worth trip to New York.

OUR Sunday cOtemporary, the Herald,
assumes to be amused at what it alleges is
an attemptto discipline Mr. Speaker Blaine,
and has something to say about ''the organ
"of the Pinchbacks, Kelloggs, Claytons
"and Caseys-of the carpet-baggers as a
"class, and Of their corrupt interests as
"policy." No doubt this is intended for
fine writing and heightened Conservative
Democratic sentiment. But who stands
behind it? Whose opinions does the Her.
aid reflect, or to whom does it appeal OF
course, it will be easy to reply to these
questions that the editor speaks for himself
and appeals to the masses Of the people.
But the masses of the people will remem-
Der that the editor was a Union soldier-a
good one, by the way-and a carpet-bag
office holder under President Grant. See-
ing an opportunity to make little money
by forsaking the very inspiration of his
army experience, he stepped down and
out, and finally over into the Democratic
ranks. No doubt his carpet-bag, brought
from Pennsylvania to the District, is well
filed with Democratic shekels as the result
of his treachery; but he will never make
as good Democrat as he was a soldier.
1t is not natural that he should.
He fought for principle. He is writing
for filthy lucre. 1t is true that he has filled
his columns with trashy nonsense, CON-
plimenting the traitors who shot him nigh
unto death during the war but while he
tries hard to ingrstiate himself into their
favor, they do not forget that he was once
a loyal, true hearted, noble soldier under
the old flag. They may use him and
wheedle him but they do it as they would
with any other Northern doughface, and at
the same time yield a generous recognition
of consistency to his more manly and indie
pendent companions-in-arms who have
since the war remained true to the princi-
pies for which they fought Mr.. Speaker
Blaine will not feel very great pride over
the fact that he is defended and applauded
by such man.

THE THIRD TERN AND THE POLITICIANS.

The Chicago Tribune, under happy in
SEPARATION, declares that L" if a majority of
1.-THE American people want a President
&c for Third Term, there is no power any.
"where to prevent them having him. 1"
Really The American people ought to
breathe freer after this. But the Tribune
goes on to say that "the President cannot
re-elect himself" This is absolutely re-
freshing Ghost of Cesar, thou art exor-
cised Avaunt! Again, the Tribune says:
"John Adams, John Quincy Adams and
" Martin Van Buren, were Presidents who,
"while in Office, tried to be elected Sec
"ond term, but failed disastrously. Other

Below we give the opinions of some Of
the State papers concerning the election
of Andrew johnson to the United States
Senate:
The fever of doubt is over. Andrew
johnson is the United States Senator at
ter the 4th of March next, in the place of
w. G. Brownlow. There are many who
are disappointed, but a graceful yielding to
the majority is one of the best features Of
our American CHARACTERIZATION
Wing and Tribune.
The Cleveland Banner brings out its
cannon and flag, accompanied by the fol
lowing headlines: The blue over the
gray once more; Andrew johnson elected
Senator on the ffty-tiith ballot by Repub-
Tcan members who held the balance of
power; great rejoicing among the people;
Brown, Burch, Hobbs and JEFF. Davis
gone where the "woodbine twineth.
Hallelujah.
While Mr.. johnson was not, perhaps,
the first choice of majority of the De
mOcracy Of this section, his election is
well received, and no expressions Of dis
satisfaction have been INDUCED in so far
a we are advised. All readily recognize
his ability and fitness for the position, and
all feel that Tennessee will have one man
of full stature and proportions in the Uni
ted States Senate, who will be heard from
on all occasions when matters of impor-
lance are under consideration.-AthenS
Post.
We feel that the election of Mr.. John
son will contribute more to the uniGcation
OF the party OF the State and Union than
any other event of the last ten years. 1t
soiidifcs il. 1t becomes at once a great
compact organization; for, until now, it
has been huge, iointless, tumultuous
force, without head competent to give

and now the Radical majority, headed
by Ben Butler, have changed the rules
Of Congress, so as to be able to get through
several ubiquitous bills, before Congress
adiourns. They want to rush through the
civil rights bill the army appropriation
bill, and to reiustate the iron-clad oath.
This oath would exclude sixty of the
Democratic members of Congress, elected
in November last The army appropria-
ton bill is intended to make provisions to
sustain the army for two years. They
fear that the next Democratic Congress
viii not make sufficient appropriations to
maintain the army; and they know they
can not elect a Radical President, in
1876, without the aid of the army in the
Southern States. The fact that it is
known that the President faYors this bill,
IS rather fOre5oding for the future. Does
he iuteud to use the army to keep him
self in Office, if it should become necessa-
ry2 But for this heretofore unheard-of
changing of the rules, the civil rights
bill could not have been passed this ses-
sion: and as the next House will be
Democratic, its final defeat would have
been certain. Now it is almost certain
that this Grc-brani will be thrown upon
the country which rejected it at the ballot
box, last November, in unmistakable
terms. This Congress can hold out
but few weeks now, but there is no tell
ing what iniquitics they will do during
that tIyna
