THE unhappy Republicans of the South
are doubtless watching with great interest
the political horizon, for upon the action at
Cincinnati depends their liberties or dis
comfture. They have proven stesdfast to
the principles Of the Republican party, Of
ten sacrificing their lives by the hundreds,
and have longed for the coming of brighter
day, when they will feel entirely secure in
their lives and property. The nomination
of milk aud water Republican at Cincin-
natl, one who will allow his ante chamber
10 be filed with rebels and carry out their
behests, will greatly dispirit Southern Re-
pubiicans and cause many of them to re-
gret that they ever allied themselves to the
party. Let us hope that these unhappy
denizens of the South will have no cause
to regret the action at Cincinnati, but on
the contrary will find in the coming nomi-
nee sterling patriot, who will see to it
that the bumblest citizen will be accorded
all the rights, privileges and immunites
guaranteed by our excellent Constitution.
If left to the South our excellent President
would again be placed in nomination, but
they will have to content themselves with
whatever the Convention does, and con-
tinue TO depend upon Him who is "a friend
"to the oppressed and him that hath none
"to help hin"

Our special telegram from Cincinnati
this morning gives succinct and clear
view of the condition of affairs there on
the eve Of the convention. 1t is conceded
that Mr.. Blaine developes the greatest
strength, and that his friends are conse-
quenily inspired with unbounded conf
dence and enthusiasm. But at the same
time there appears to be a strong under
current Of conservatism, which will serve
to iDculcate careful consideration of all
the circumstances, with view to the
certain and positive success Of the ticket,
before balloting for the candidates. A
good sign is the uniform good temper
prevailing among the friends of the rival
candidates, and the unanimous determine.
tion expressed on all sides to award an
enthusiastic support of the ticket, what
ever it may be, when once determined
upon. This is an omen of success.

IN MEMORIAM - CHARLES "JEEMs"
FAuLKEER

One of the most pleasing incidents in con-
nection with the recent Democratic conven-
ton in West Virginia was the extinguisher
it put on the hopes and Senatorial aspira-
tions Of that offensive old demagogue,
Charles "Jeems" Faulkner. The party was
divided, on the assembling of the conven-
ton, into two factions, known, respective
ly, as young America, led by Senator
Davis, and ''Old Fogies, for whom the il
lustrious Charles "Jeems" stood as princi-
pal sponsor. Senator Davis and his asso-
ciates did his party and the country real
service by repudiating the candidacy of
Faulkner, with his rag-money ideas, and
thereby virtually removing the danger with
which the United States Senate and the
country was threatened, Of having the vain
and pompous old fossil Charles Jeems as
the successor of Davis in the Senate.
While we do not profess to be actuated
by any great reverence for the present Sem
ator, We would fain see the body of which
he is 8 member preserve its dignity by free
dom fl ON the presence of the old coxcomb
who aspires to the succession. Faulkner's
influence with his party in the House is
best represented by cypher. In the Sen
ate he would only serve TO render that body
ridiculous by his exhibitions of vanity and
his overweening thirst for nctoriety.
We would venture a word of advice,
however, to Senator Davis in this connec-
tion. We know Charles Jeems" to be very
crafty, if not altogether an unprincipled
politician, and if he Davis does not look
out sharply his rival for Senatorial honors
will yet outwit him by attaching himself to
the Senator's faction and "out-Heroding
Herod" in his advocacy Of their schemes.
Such was the game he played on the occa-
sion Of his first election from the old State
of Virginia to Congress. That unfortu
nate event occurred in the year 1851, when
he professed to be Wing and was run by
that party, whom be grossly deceived as
Wing and Union candidate against Heury
Bedinger, Democrat, charged with seces-
sion procliyities. Faulkner's first act in
Congress was to vote for Bagley, of Vir--
ginia, Democrat. for Speaker. His next
step was TO repudiate, with Bob Toombs
and Alex. Stephens, the nomination of
Gen. ScGtt for the Presidency and cast
himself bodily into tie arms Of the Democ-
racy. At the expiration Of his term Faux
ner returned to his constituents, and know
ing the district to be Democratic, and that
National Republican., 1876-06-14

he had only obtained his election before by
reason of his professed Union sentiments,
as opposed to those of secession, and that
question being no longer before the peo-
pie, he sought and obtained, 1t is said. by
the most disreputsble devices, the nomi-
nation of the Democracy, in the advocacy
of whose peculiar doctrines he went bow
shot beyond the lifetime members ofthat
party. As q Democrat he was elected
again. after which the people, tired and
disguised with him, elected an old Whig
and man of merit-Hon. A. R. Boteler-
to succeed him. At the death Of Hon.
John Y. Mason, which occurred quite IN
expectedly about this time, Mr.. Buchanan
suddenly discovered "Charles Jeems'
fitness to represent this country at the
French Court. The subsequent career of
this immaculate patriot is part of the his
tory of the country. With knowledge
of his enemy's antecedents, therefore, it
becomes Senator Davis to keep his weather
eye open, or Charles Jeems" will beat
him at his own game.
Ii is matter OF but little concern to Re-
publicans who the Democracy of West
Virginia send to the Senate. 1t would,
perhaps, be much better for the first
named if they would fill up the Demo
cratic seats with such as Faulkner. 1t
would all the more speedily disgust the
people with the party who sent such efsts
popinjays to represent him. With an
idea, however, of what the Senate should
be in dignity and respectability, we are
impelled to rejoice with Davis, albeit we
cannot weep with his apparently defunct
adversary, but upon the other hand con-
gratulate the electors of West Virginia on
their implied purpose to make "a good
riddance to some very bad rubbish" Exit

THE Independent Press of the North
contends that the political battle of the
coming campaign must be fought upon the
issues of political economy-upon finance
and tariff. 1t insists that the people of the
North are satisfied with the practical dis
franchisement of Republicans in the South
and the present Democratic rule in that
section, obtained through intimidation,
violence and bloodshed. This is q state of
public opinion which is greatly to be de-
plored if the facts bear out the assertion.
But we are notprepared to accept any such
verdict. 1t is incredible that Northern
Republicans are consenting to the blotting
out of the educational system which has
been inaugurated through the efforts of
their friends and partisans In the South, by
which the newly enfranchised citizens of
that Sc ;tiop, in common with illiterate
whites, were to be prepared to take part
intelligently in the conduct Of public aE
fairs. 1t is not to be believed for single
moment that those who fought during four
years that the Southern slaves might be
icS arc HON Wiling W elb supauCly uOnu
and see those four million freedmen practi-
cally re-enslaved through a system of
peonage which is, in some re-
spects, far more oppressive than the
old system of African slavery.
1t may safely be assumed that the free
men Of the North, who insisted upon the
thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amend.
.ments being engrafted upon the Constitu-
ton as condition precedent to the rehab-
ilitation of the Southern States within the
Union, will not now consent to the prac-
tical notification of those amendments by
the ex rebels who failed to achieve their
purposes in the field. These eI-rebels
came into Congress under the pretense of
yielding full obedience to these amend
ments. But they had hardly got their
seats warmed before they began at home
their reasonable notification of them
through State action. With such facts as
these staring them in the face, it is incredt.

The health of Mr.. Blaine improved
wonderfully yesterday, beyond the eIpec-
tations of his most sanguine friends. He
was able to write short dispatch, with his
own hand, to Hon. Eugene Hale, his Prime
Minister at Cincinnati. He was in good
spirits and very grateful to his friends for
their sympathetic adherence to him during
his physical proStration. His wonderful
recuperative power is now all in favor of a
speedy and permanent recovery.

THE Richmond Virginia) Patron says
that Ex-Governor Gilbert C. Walker and
General Bradley 7. johnson were laid on
the shelf by the Conservative State con-
yention. This means that they both were
candidates for delegates to the st. Louis
convention, but were not chosen because
they were not to the manner born" They
are what are styled "carpst-baggers,"
and are, therefore, not to be trusted.

There is a ine-lookiug mastiff in the West
End of this city who is peace maker among
his fellow dogs. Yesterday he noticed two
Scotch terriers fighting furiously on the curb
stone, and, stepping quickly to the scene of
conflict, seized one by the ear and led him away.
The other followed up and commenced
vigorous attack on his arrested antagonist.
The mastiff Immediately turned upon him,
and, catching him firmly by the nape of the
neck, tossed him over an adjoining fence. He
then returned to the first terrier, and, taking
the corner, away from his foe. The mastiff
never says much, but he has way of dis
patching business that makes him an un-
doubted success. -..
The press is creating q general outcry
against Samuel J. Tilden because he is at
tempting 70 advertise himself into the White
House. This is wrong, for Samuel is right.
He knows full well the worth and power of
printers ink. 1t is the horse that has carried
many men to success. Small merchants have
been made commercial princes. Poor trades
men by its potency have been elevated to affiu-
ence and social distinction, and why should
not the great canal ring breaker sail into the
Presidential harbor on this trustworthy craft!
OF course, a great deal depends upon judicious
advertising. The following card, If 1t is
genuine, shows how fully Samuel appreciated
this fact
'.Bdtes g. Locke:
ttGENTs send You q batch of notices which
have Just written to be inserted in such papers as
touch the people in the right spot. Draw on me
at the rate of $3.50 for each Insertion.
"Fery respectfully, S. J. T."
Where is the pitent-medicine man who
could frame more business-like notice than
that 'I latter myself they will touch the peo-
pie in the right spot?" How delicately it is
expressed! Conscious of the sensitiveness Of the
American people, he does not mention what
spot the right one is. Unlike the patent-med-
icine man, he does not announce "Ready Re-
lief for burns, ulcers, Group, lock-js small
pox, creek in the back, consumption, and So
forth, taken internally with a spoon and ex-
ternally with the fiat of your hand, i" but he
modestly remarks it will "strike the right
spot" Whether that spot on the general sur
face of the American people is their head,
stomach, or heart, the sly oil gentleman does
not say. And why should he! 1t is enough
for us to know that it will, like the aim of an
unerring archer, plug the right spot, and plug
1t, too, in such forcible and convincing man
ner that he is willing to pay So so for each
insertion. Printers ink judiciously applied
pays, and the wisdom Of Mr.. Tilden in this
respect is commendable.
