Mr.. GEORGE w. CURTIS has written
a letter in favor of pensioning common
school teachers, In which he SAYS:
Teaching in the public schools is as
essential a part of the public service as
the discharge of duty in the army and
navy, and the faithful servant in one
branch is entitled to the same consider
alton as his fellow servant in another.
The pension would make teaching an
assured career, and constantly attract
to it the best teaching talent in the
country, and the efficiency and value of
the schools would be promoted Just in
the degree that teaching ceased to be
temporary resource, as it now so often
is. The best service in any public de-
partment is always the cheapest, and
the advantage that the State would pur-
chase by this little outlay would be in
estimable. cannot help thinking that
the proposition must command the warm
sympathy and support Of the more in
teiiigent friends of the common schools
and with all my heart 1 wish il sue

LIEUTENANT CAMERON, the African
explorer, is thus spoken of by the Eng
Hsh Independent: although he has
won his spurs at so early period in
his life, it is impossible not to aeknowI-
edge that he heartily deserves the warm
est things that can be said on his be
half. Few men in this generation have
achieved so much, and the ultimate re-
suit of the service he has rendered can
not be overestimated. He has by natu-
raj right become in public estimation
the worthy successor of DIR. Livingstone,
and no honor can be more valuable than
such a reputation. The highest euIogy
has been pronounced when this has been
sincerely said. As we read the story of
his extraordinary feat, it wins upon our
enthusiasm, and when we contemplate
the results which may issue from it to
the African race, that enthusiasm takes
tone Of profound gratitude 1t is not
necessary here to describe the progress
of the enterprise with whieh his name is
associated; what we particularly note is
that, ike almost al the most successful
and useful explorations OF modern days,
il has been undertaken not merely with
a scientific purpose, but in the interests
of civilization, philanthropy and re
ligion."

Tricks of the Louisiana Return
ing Board.

New Orleans Special to the New YorkIw orld.
Further analysis of the Return
ing Board figures developes a de
gree of rascality which could
scarcely have been suspected. 1t is
found on examination that every
poll thrown out had defeated some
Republican candidate. Here in ev
cry case of throwing out poll the
effect was to elect some defeated
Republican. Thus, a small poll in
Tangipahoa, which WIS not con
tested, was excluded because (even
after robbing Robertson, the Dem
ocratic candidate, of over 5000
vOtes), it was necessary to throw
out that poll in order to, elect his
antagonist. 1t is discovered like
wise that the returns of the Board
differ enormously in the various
compilations; for instance, in order
to count in the Hayes electors they
threw out polls giving 10000 Demo
cratic majority, but in order to get
the State Senate by majority they
threw out $4,000 Democratic votes,
thus counting out for Senators
about 5000 votes which they had
allowed for electors. In order to
beat Robertson for Congress they
threw out Democratic votes about
5000 in excess of the number
thrown out for Electors, and to re
store the aggregate in the Senate
they counted back in Leonard's dis
trict, which is Republican by sever
al thousand on their showing, the
number of Democratic votes which
they had thrown out for electors
equal to the number they had stolen
from Robertson. Some polls have
been counted for Representatives
which were excluded for Senators.
Others were thrown out for Congress
which were included on the Electo
raj return. The whole canvass is a
hotch potch of Inconsistency and
! fraud.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1876-12-21

"Gov. Hayes represented the par
ty that carried ali but four of the
States that furnished men for the
suppression Of the rebellion, and
Gov. Tilden all but three of those
which sought to destroy the Union"
Grand.
Aside from it being indelicate,
not to say outrageous and indecent,
for the President of the whole peo-
pie to use his power and the power
of the nation to cover up fraud, as
sociate with and honor thieves and
bolster up and defend usurpers and
Williams, this utterance, even if it
had come from a private republican
citizen, is absolutely infamous. The
argument is this: Because q majori-
ty of the Southern States voted for
Tilden, Hayes must be counted in.
Now, the Southern States are either
States or they are not States. If
they are States, the ballots of the
people are as sacred and effective
as that of che blacklist republican
that ever Rugged a negro in his
dreams. If they are not to be al
lowed to have their votes counted
after casting them, where is the use
and sense of continuing the election
farce any longer in the South2
Eleven years have healed the gaping
wounds of war, and the soothing
fluctuations of time and manifold
events have even obliterated the
scars of those wounds, and then we
brought all our lingering animosi-
ties and hates and cast them into
one huge centennial funeral pile,
and with the torch of liberty, lit
afresh at the shrine where the ma
ton assembled to celebrate it's
birthday, we touched off that pile
and now the ashes have been scat.
tered by the winds, and the fame
and smoke have disappeared, and
still there can be found a man mean
enough to dig up the past and re-
sort again to the argument of hate.
Now and forever, so far as we are
concerned, we shall contend that
the South is as loyal as any other
section, that she has a right to be
heard and that tameness and sub
mission no longer become her. TIC

upon US until every sense of justict
must be satiated. Hencelorth, lie

of its slanderous utterance, anC

Admiral Whitthorne.

We learn from the Washington
dispatches that the Hon. W. G.
WhitthoIne, Of this State, Chairman
of the Naval Investigating Commit
tee, is determined to dig, with re-
newed vigor into the mountain of
corruption which has been piled up
by Robeson's administration of Ma
val affairs. admiral Whit" as he
is called with meaning, has shown a
capacity and vigor for this impor-
tant work, which has won the admi-
ration and the confidence of honest
men and patriots everywhere. 1t is
quite evident that he possesses the
industry, the brains and the nerve
to do all that duty requires, and be-
fore he is done with the knaves of
the Naval department the people.
who already for the splendid work
accomplished applaud him without
stint, will have abundant additional
reason for admiring and honoring
him.
In this connection it is proper to
state, that Mr.. Whitthorne is devel
Oplng decided strength In Middle
Tennessee for the United States
Senate. And it would be no in
Justice to other distinguished aspi-
rants for the same high honor, to
say that he is the peer of any man
in Tennessee. He has the expert
ence, the mind the comprehensive
wisdom which comes of a well or
ganized brain, well trained, to fit
him for the Senate. And should
the senatorial mantle fall on his
shoulders, we feel safe in saying
that it will be gracefully and
worthily worn. We are by no
means Mr.. Whitthorne's champion,
and write this in simple justice to
one of Tennessee's most deserving
statesmen.-Jackson San.

A Great Speech.

We ask the Responding and i'm
patient Democrats of the South to
read the following extract from the
great speech recently delivered by
Horatio Seymour of New York:
The Democratic party is too
strong to be violent; it will not for
felt the confidence of the people by
any display of passion; it can assert
itself through the regular channels
Of political action. Frauds may
delay the course of Justice, may ex
cite passion hurtful to the progress
of our country, but legal and just
punishment will surely follow. That
party which controls towns, coun-
ties and States viii control the
country. The President against
whom is arrayed the body of the
people, is an object of sympathy,
not Of fear. This is not a subject
which belongs alone to those who
are actively engaged in political af-
fairs 1t is a great American ques-
ton, which concerns every citizen
and every home. They can make q
grand exhibition of the genious of
our government, and of the power of
its citizens by a calm rebuke to
frenzied rulers. Even those who
desperately seek to hide the records
of past misconduct from the knowl
edge of our people will quail before
an aroused public. One thing all
men see: the Republican party can
not decide its own case in its own
favor against the pJority of the
American people upon the eertifi
cate of branded men in Louisiana
without making the body of sur
citizens and the world at large feel
that 1t is a corrupt and partisan de-
cision. We cannot have Mexican
politics without Mexican disorders.
The business men in all civilized
countries have been taught by re-
cent bankruptcies and disorders in
/ governments made unstable by agi
tations, to be watchful and disturst.
/ full when they see the slightest de.
Walton from political honor, with
out which there can be no financial
honor.

Grant spelling for a Fight.

As he draws inspiration from the
black bottle each morning, Grant
becomes more bloodthirsty, and
bowls more savagely for gore. He
is evidently spelling for a fight.
Recently, when the representatives
of the people were talking about
impeachi1g him, he snapped out the
savage intimatiOn that 'they had
better not attempt it." His bloody
threat of driving the house of rep
resentatives into the Potomac was,
it seems, not sufficiently culinary.
1t is now followed by a threat to
sincarcerate that body, or a major
ity of il, in Fortress Monroe" Real
", it is getting difficult to find in
history an autocrat of sufficient saw
age and bloodthirsty propensities
to render him a true prototype of
our feFocious bulldozer in the White
House. Charles /. was 8 saint

State Convention.

We call upon the Democratic
State Committee to issue its call
for a convention to be held at Nash
Vile on January sth to protest
against the past, present and pros
pective villainy of the administers
ton, to rebuke the conspirators at
Washington, and to demand that
the expressed viii of the people be
carried into effect by the peaceable
Inauguration of Tilden and Hend-
ricks. Indiana makes the call and
the States should all respond. This
is a constitutional resort and may so
stun the conspirators as to render
unnecessary an appeal to arms.
