and by majority Of Democratic votes2
Will it ever transpire that on the passage
of that bill in the Senate it received the
Democratic votes Of Messrs. Eaton, Sauls-
bury and Stevenson? that only six Demo-
cratic Senators voted against the treaty,
while such Democrats as Barnum, Bay
ard, Cockrell, Cooper, Davis, Norwood
and Whyte were absent or not voting
against the treaty? 1t would not be sus-
pected, perhaps, that while the vote for
the treaty was mixed, as many Republic
ans as Democrats voted against the treaty.
1t is thus that the Southern mind is
poisoned by perversion of facts. They
are taught that politician, calling him.
self Democrat, can do no wrong, while
if Republican does right, even accord
ing to the Democratic standard, the pub
lie never hears of him. This systematic
perversion has borne its fruit. The dough-
faces at the North have been compelled to
turn States evidence, admit the violations
of law at the South, and direct the Presi-
dent to employ the army and navy of the
nation to restore and maintain the public
peace.

Union TRIUMPH. I,

The declaration of Congress that the
constitutional amendments shall be car
ried out with the full force of the Federal
army, if necessary, proves that the whole
American people are convinced of the
Democratic violence which pervades the
South, and demands its suppression.
This conviction is so universal that the
Northern Democracy has been compelled
to arm the President with authority to
execute the ample law upon the subject.
The Southern Democracy, headed by Hill,
Lamar, Singleton and others, was COM
PEELED to submit to this action. The
Southern Democrats were thrown over
board for the salvage of the party ship.
These gentlemen have gone under with
the composure of SO many Jonahs. This
Democratic surrender has taken the party
organs here with an inexpressible
establishment. In their feeble and
impotent circulation they have as
sured the bulldozers that nothing was
to be apprehended from the gov
eminent They have in all the AFRO
gance of local supremacy assumed that
their denial of Coushatta and Hamburg
has been accepted by the American peo-
pie. The American people neither see
the bulldozer organs nor regard their as
surances. The American people regard
the violence to life and opinion in Lou
isiana as humanity does the the same
Turkish traits in Servia or Herzegovina.
They no more respect the disclaimer of
Democrat for these abuses than Chris
tianity does that of the Sultan.
From Washington and New York spread
daily, millions of publications, all bear
ing the same shocking facts. The little
Democratic weeklies and dailies limp
slowly along, with their contradictions of
the truth. What wonder the Northern
Democrats have been compelled to en-
force the law and appease the people.
They see the imminent danger of the
Confederate raid on Washington, and the
agonized cry of their litany is, "From
battle, murder, and from sudden death,
good LORD deliver us" Now, Mr.. Lord
has endeavored to do so, by accepting the
fifteenth amendment, with the laws
passed hereunder, and arming and urg-
ing the President to execute them. This
is the most signal taiumph of the Union
since the Confederate surrender. There
were many men, North and South, who
accepted that event in good faith. There
were many others who looked for the
second coming Of Mr.. Jefferson Davis.
There were fossils like Salisbury,
Bayard and Tilden, who still preserved
their traditions of States rights and
looked forward to dispensation which
would remit issues to their position in
1860. All these elements of open or
covert disafection have succumbed. The
resolution of Democratic manager of
the Belknap Impeachment has come in,
grounded his arms, taken the renewed
oath of allegiance to the Union, and
actually sent out force to recapture or
punish his late associates still outstanding
in fragrant contempt of the constitution,
its amendments and its laws. With such
an accession of loyalty the Union is i'm
pregnable. The Republican party has
prevailed in the establishment of its
principles, so that even doughfaces and
fre-eaters fall down and worship them.

SECULAR vs.. FREE SCHOOLS,

We publish in another place a second
letter on the school question from oul
courteous st. Helena correspondent,
'John Scollard, Catholic pastor" We
should be quite contented to let this com.
munication pass without comment, as the
writer presents the case SO clearly and
shows SO plainly the differences which
exist between the church of which he is
an exponent and the American advocate
| Of free non-secular schools, that the reader
can easily see the direction which educa-
tional interests would take were they ia
ken from the control Of civil officers and
committed to the ecclesiastics. But the
reverend father has fallen into few
errors which we desire to point out:
I. We are not SO entirely satisfied as he
seems to suppose, that his friend, Mr..
Lusher, is "stiff Protestant" We ac-
copied the evidence, and assumed it to be
true for the sake Of the argument. It is
difficult to understand why learned and
Jealous Catholic pastor, who almost leads
us to suppose he is Republican, should
desire the election to the important posi-
ton of Superintendent of Education of a
''stiff Protestant (probably), and an un-
doubted Democrat.
2. In his reference to the free public
schools of the Old World, our correspond
ent gives as an instance in refutation of
our views the case of Austria, and
calls Chambers as witness who eulogi-
yes the Austrian system. AS Chambers is
close at hand, We call him to speak for
himself. Under the uerJo Austria, he
says:
Education, since 1S49, is under the care
of q minister Of public worship and in
struction. As compared with other Ger
man States, the education Of Austria pre-
sents some peculiarities. There is greater
prevalence of establishments where the
pupils both live and receive instruction;
also of schools for special callings. In
structiOn, again, whether high or low, is
mostly gratuit0us or of tritling cost, being
provided from general or local public
funds. Another popularity is the sway Of
the clergy, both in schools and universe
ties. The primary schools are entirely in
their hands. The Jesuits, banished in lS48
have been allowed to return, and have had
their schools restored. The number of ele-
mentary schools has increased greatly in re.
cent times; Hungary is still backward in this
respect. In 1851 there were mot counting
Hungary 1860 elementary schools. hav-
ing 81 .9S7 teachers, and educating 3, ABS, 97S
children. There were nine univerlties, l39
establishments for giving instruction in
theology (of which l2l we're Roman
Catholic), seven technical institutes and
seven surgical schools. There are also
large number Of establishments where the
pupils are received young, and educated
and trained for special professions, for the
army and navy. for the countinghouse, for
the mine and farm, as accoucheurs, etc.
There are beside large number of institutes,

to have stood to the consequences which
their act invoked, without complaint
They do not seem to have striven to OBJ

the social and labor questions have ap-

Mr.. Mosby is representative of this

From what we learn of him he was the
leader of peculiar frontier warfare.
His men were of the best people. They
trusted and obeyed him, and this COM

a more substantial force would have been

the confidence of the people they pro-

] f,ounting the Vote for President.

Counting the Vote for President.
The Washington correspondent Of the
Baltimore san attempts 10 quiet the fears
OF those who apprehend that the TWO houses
al Congress may not agree as to who was
elected President, and that trouble may re-
suit, by saying that the Joint rule providing
that the vote OF any State might be rejected
by either house is no longer, in force, and
that Senator FERRY, President OF the Sem
ate, viii decide alI questions chat may be
raised as to the. electoral votes. This cor
respondent assumes that the Eouse will abb
dictate in favor OF Mr.. Ferry its constitu-
fionai right to elect a President. For il
Mr.. FERRY shall declare to have been elect
cd q man'known by the House either not
to have been elected nj all, or if elected
known to have been elected by force or
fraud, the House could hardly be expected to
submit quietly to such plain violation OF
the Constitution as would be involvedin the
inauguration Of that mani as president. The
House would possibly proceed 70 elect q
president, that being Its constitutional pri-
yiiege and duty in case no candidate IS
elected by the people or the electors. It's
true that General GRANT would have bet
ter excuse for treating the House as GROIN
WELL did the British Parliament, than he
would have i; the joint rule were stu in
force. But this only renders the probability
Of trouble greater, not less. The seeds OF
revolution are in the earth. Circumspec-
ton and caution are absolutely necessary.

Gropnd]ess Fears,

When the Cincinnati Commercial first be-
gan to publish articles about a sEsolid South"
and to wave the bloody shirt from its battle
ments, we experienced feeling OF indigna-
ton at its conduct. But awe have changed
all that" as the French say. When we are
engaged in reading that blood-stained Jour-
nal now we laugh at the ludicrous and hys-
terical utterances OF the tield-marshal who
is supposed in the absence OF PLYMPToS TO
command its columns. MURAT HALsTEAD,
living on the very boundary line OF the
sbarbarous South" and separated from that
benighted region by only the width OF the
Ohio river, sounds the alarm to the
northern people that the Gneal success
sors OF the shareholders OF that region,
which shareholders established before the
war "the meanest, the most reckless, the
most ignorant, brutal, and intolerant des-
pctism that has in many centuries disgraced
the EARTH" are still! fully determined to ma
tionalize their barbTous notions. and to
reduce the unrepentant freemen OF the
and drawers OF water for Those incorriSible
successors Of the truculent shareholders.
The rams horn which was so successfully
blown upon the walls OF Jericho never
sounded such an alarm as that which for
weeks past has been heard from the outer
walls manned by Ficld-Marshal MURAT's
forces.
But unfortunately for the Commercial
NAN, the northern people perceive that his
is false alarm. They laugh at his fears,
and deride his Cassandra-likc Vaccinations.
He mounts the walls and circumambulates
about the city OF the saviors Of their coun-
try. crying with loud voice that in two
more weeks this great country will be de-
stroyed unless his advice be taken; but the
people below set him down as q mailman.
and pursue unconcernedlv their usual vo-
cations. r.,,s...g r.r.s.f.4 al -..,, ..,
Speaking earnestly, we must. say that we
cannot but feel sympathy for the man
who could find it in his heart to convert
such paper as the Commercial always was
previous to 1876 into such q paper as it is
now. It is as if CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS
were to transform himself into BENJAMIN
F. BUTLER. The freak is surprising and
unaccountable. If the Commercial man
really entertains the apprehensions which
he processes to feel, he is a silly Billy and
an object CT derision. II he does not en-
terrain them but puts them forth in
hope OF exciting the fears of other
people, he is-something worse than
simpleton. We cannot say whether
silly fear or that something worse is be-
hind the libellous and ridiculous articles to
which we refer. But If we were permitted
to make guess it would be: that il PLrMr-
TON is responsible for them, the moving
power is fear; whilst if HALsTEAD himself
is responsible, he is playing game. and
does not believe one word of all that he
says concerning the dangers to be appre-
hended from the election OF Mr.. TILDEN.
