mean government which will make life
and property a. secure in the remotsst
swamp of Louisiana - these are in the
capital of the nation. If We do not have
such . government a. this, then there is be-
fore ~ IS people civil war, anarchy,
bankruptcy and final despotism.
The Confederate emocracy declare that
they alone can give rs this government.
Their plan is simple. It consists in re-
handing the negro to Generalization to the
white race" and the restoration Of national
authority and power to the men who made
war in 1860. The Republicans can not be
made to see the wisdom of this policy,
hence they denouncs it as folly, - simply
the restoration of the ante bsllum condition
of American politics. The people will vote
in this matter ON the Republican side.
They will vote against Confederate Demo-
cratic restoration. That is all Of it. And
that is enough, for it settles the presidential
business.
1t is surprising that the Confederate
leaders of the South can not be made to see
that this issue must remain of fact per-
manent question Of American politics until
the Confederate league disbands. What
earthly objection can any sensible man in
Louisiana, for instance, urge against Gov
ernor Hayes or against his letter of aecep.
lance, or against his policy Ia most gener-
GUS policy towards the Soush! Why will
her people, a. the blindest of the blind, still
consent to be led by the blind! Why keep
alive the Confederate league in louisiana
Folly! folly! folly!
Well, We have ono thing to be deeply CRATE
full for. We shall certainly carry the cleo
ton, and We shall have under Governor
Hayes administration such q management
of national affairs and such management
of Southern affairs in particular as will give
us peace and good government for the next
four years; unless, indeed, the Confederates
determine to resist his policy Of peace as
they resisted Lincoln's appeals in 1860, as
they resisted the national authority from
1860 to 1865, and as they have resisted con-
gressional reconstruction from the day Of
Lincoln's assassination and Andrew John
sons accession to power until the massacre
ct Hamburg, South Carolina. But let US
hope that We shall finally break the back Of
this Confederate league, and 60 restore
peace and prosperity to the South. In the
meanwhile the Republican party will con.
tinue to govern the nation. Under Co..
ernor Hayes leadership this government
will be firm and honest and powerful, and Q
blessing to the South, if we use the oppor.

Religious Neglect Of the Frontier Army
Saws the New York ReraM:

Says the New York herald:
The tollo wing letter from the late Gen
eral Custer to DR.. j. P. Newman, OF Wash
inoton. shows how, while great ef
forts are being made to Christianize the
SAVAGE Indians, very little interest is taken
in the souls of the soldiers who have to
coatend face to face with the red men.

Rev. J. p Newman, D. d. Washington, D. O.:
MY DEAR SIR-At the suggestion Of Mr..
Mstchest take the liberty of addressing
you few lines in regard to the Christian
work to which Mr.. Msrchett has been faith
fully devoting himself at this post. He
came here under the auspices of the Indian
bureau, intending to labor among the In
dian TRIES of the Upper Missouri river, but
owing to some obstacles encountered at
points above this on the river, he returned
to this post some weeks ago to await fur.
Their instructions from those under whom
he is acting. In the meanwhile he has de-
voted himself to missionary work among
the soldiers-a class, by the way, whose
moral welfare, ct least those on the mon
tier, lie as sadly neglected % that Of any of
our aboriginal tribes. Mr.. Matchett en-
gagged in the work before him with great
earnestness and zeal. He has i'm
pressed all with whom he has been
associated with his unselish goodness, his
honesty of purpose and his great desire to
do good. II is but due to him and the holy
caues he representa-, and pleasure to me,
to testify to the success (which has ap-
parently crowned his labors, particularly
among the soldiers of this command. Nj.
Matchets will, no doubt, acquaint you n
detail with the progress of hls work. II;
our large posts on the remote frontier,
which are situated far from churches and
church influences, had chspiains who we're
a. faithful CHRISTMAS % I believe Mr..
Matchett to be, and who were, like him,
willing to labor faithfully among the en-
listed men, the moral standard, now neoes-s
ssrily 80 low, among that neglected class
would be elevated far above its present
level and great results would follow.
Hoping you will receive these few lines in
the spirit which prompts me to send them,
am truly yours,
GA. CUSTER,
Brevet Major General United States Army.

a DsnSshsu Gxpasdes n de Deaserasic
Ranks.

09oo0e
The Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Times says, under date of An
gust 10:
Mr.. Scott Lord threw an unexpected
bombshell into the ranks of his own party
to-day. He offered . resolution, which, he
said, had been submitted to number Of the
Southern members, and met with their ap-
prevail. This resolution recited the fifteenth
amendment, and then said it was asserted
the right of suffrage il resisted, controlled
BY fraud, intimidation and violence, in some
Of the States, in defiance of the fifteenth
amendment, and
"WHEREAs, All citizens are entitled to
protection under said amendment; there
fore, be it
"Resolved by the House, That all At
tempts by force to render intimidation, or
otherwise to interfere with the rights OF
citizens, are condemned. and the guilty
parties should receive condign and efteotuai
punishment"
The reading Of this resolution occasioned
very general surprise to the Repuoncans'
coming as it did from the Democratic side.
At first it was thought to be . trap to
catch the Republicans; but after the reso'
luton had been read three times they be-
came satisfied it was all right. In the
meantime there was hurried consultation
among the Democrats, which was followed
by Q motion by Mr.. Clymer to send the mo-
ton to the Judiciary Committee.
Mr.. Lord was pressed by the Republicans
to call the previous question, which ne did.
There was great confusion ON the Demo
cratic side Of the House. and it was appar-
emit that not many had been consulted 6v
Mr.. Lord. % seconding the demand, the
Democrats assumed the position of hilbus-
tering, and nearly all abstained from v0t.
ing, to prevent q quorum. The vote stood
70 yeas to l9 Rays, not Q quorum. The Re-
publicans then demanded call OF the roll
Of the House, and were strong enough to
carry their point. During the call, large
number of Democrats gathered around MI.
Lords desk, among the number Cox,
Raglan, Landers, Morrison, Clymer, Bright
and Sayler, and held consultation.
The call of the House showed T3 mem
bers present. The question then REQUIRED
upon seconding the demand for the pre-
vious question, the vote being taken by tel
lers-ysas 81, nays 2l-the Democrats, with
the exception of few voting in the mega.
tive, sbstsining frem voting. Another call
of the House was ordered. Mr.. Lord asked
the unanimous consent to make state
ment. but objection was made by Mr.. Here
ford.
After two calls Of the House, the Demo-
Gratis stopped fllibustering, and the do
mand for the previous was adopted-yeas.
1873; nays, Is.
Mr.. Clymer demanded . division of the
preamble and the resolution, 90 that the
House could vote on each separately.
The resolution was then passed, the Demo
Gratis changing their position. and voting
with the Republicans in the affirm native.
Mr.. Lord is severely oensured by many
Democrats, privately, for thus hosting. the
bloody shirt, and placing his party in q
position from which they could not escape.

Cardinal Manning recently made the fol
lowing pertinent remarks concerning pray
ers for the dead:
those they have laid in the grave. They
never come to the Holy Nj ass without max
log commemoration and loving prayer for
the poor souls that have gone iutO the other
world. But l ask all others rot Of my lock /:
What have yOu ever done aud what are you
DONG now for those you loved 80 well in
life, who have been taken away by death
Are you mourning over their memnryf Do
you do any thing for them Your father
whom you loved 50 dearly-the father who
was the strength and guide of your youth
have you forgotten himq D res day pass
after day without .tiiial memory and a
loving prayer for the father that loved you
so dearlyf Or your mother whom you
loved with tenderness only less than the
tenderness with which size loved you The
mother that bore yOu-the mother that sor-
rowed over yOu-the mother, whose mem
DRY, 1t may be, has again and again re-
strained you from doing wrong. She lie
gone you buried her in the earth-have
you forgotten her 7-and when you pray
for yourself, do you offer up II prayer for
her like this May She rest in peace o,
my God, may We meet again. o., may she
enter speedily into the bliss of your King
domp Do not your hearts breathe like
y
hearts with human sympathies-isit posi-
BILE that you have not these ipstincts7 Or,

friend whom you ged-who loved you,
and you broke his heart, and it may be
your example led some one into sin, and
in their sia they died, rs far as you know,
and they are gone to their Judgment before
the great white throne do you ever pray
for them, that God in His mercy might
have pity on themf Alas, as l said in the
beginning, those who forget the dead, those
who blot oat the words, 'may be rest in
peace, can have but little human love or bu-
man sympathy. There is but one other word
l will say. None but saints may go

A Druukard Overcoming tho Court and Jury with
his Eloquenco.
tFrOm the Virginia City Chronicle

NiOAh th0 lily ShFODlcle)
An old fellow, who gave his name as
Charles II. Slosson, wac called up in Judge
Wright's court on the charge of drunken
ness. He was remarkably seedy looking
specimen, arrayed in a dirty check shirt
aud pair of loose, baggy trousers, which
were prevented from falling off by lea
Their strap knotted about his waist He wac
shivering aud trembling from the effects of
debauch, and hardly had the strength to
stand upright. When the Judge asked him
If he had anything to say, he rose up in a
sort of diajointed way and demanded jury
trial, which was granted, and when bis turn
came he advanced and began:
Gentlemen of the jury, stand here to-
day less defender of my own personal de-
basement than an example of human de-
pravity, which like q beacon light, should
warn you from the ragged rocks of intem-
perance. A man in my condition is like q
rude sign post I once saw in Tennessee,
which pointed up q road over which the
green grass was beginning to wave. On the
sign was the inscription, Smallpox and
the index finger of hand pointing west
ward. If any Of you in travelling along a
highway saw such q sign az that, you would
pause upon the brink of deadly danger and
turn backward. Sensation In me you
behold such Sign, and if by looking upon
me any one of you can be turned back from
destruction, shall think that God in his
infinite mercy has allowed me to fill q
| sphere of usefulness which shall enable me
to bear with fortitude the imputatlon con-
stantly hurled upon me by my own con-
science, that have lived in vain.
"Geutlemen of the jury, as you peruse
| the pages of the old poets you will see how
they have deified the wine cup. They have
wreathed it with the flowers of fancy, sur
rounded it with the halo of Gong, and peo-
pied its bloody depths with the creatures of
their own bright imaginations, until one
might almost believe it to be the wellsprinR
of human happiness, when the bitter e1-
perience tells US in very different language
that il is the fountain head of misery, the
abode of the demon that destroys our very
lives. There lie something which comes up
in the fumes of the cup that fools call in
spiratiOn, but it is q cunning reptile which,
crawling up from the dregs of the grape,
enters the window of tue brain and steals
away, like q thief in the night, with our
reason fast in it's embrace. There is hand
in the wine cup which, at any moment, may
put it's felOn grip upon your thrOAts and
strangle you as a strong man might a babe.
Gentlemen of the jury, 1 have not long to
stay. Two mighty miners are delviug on
this lode-Time and Death. They are daily
at their posts, working together side by
| side as one eternal shift, clearing away the
rubbish Of waste rock aud pushing along
the ledge. Before long shall be gathered
into the vast laboratory of Death, piece
