A REPUBLICAN VIEW UsF the
SOUTH.

Mr.. CHARLES Noanuorr th' well
known Republican journalist and author,
read n paper before the Social Science
Association ut Saratoga last week, from
which the following Is an extract
"rhe men who have misruled the
south. who have succeeded in banding
the colored voters together, and thus in
massing upon one side ignorance, IN
thrift, and political superstition, have
been for the most part federal Office
holders. IL is not only the higher OIL
GERS, such MS United States Mar
shs,s aud the postmasters OF the
larger cities, who thus Interfere
in the local politics OF these states. Every
paid federal office holder, if he is onl Y a
deputy United States marshaPs deputy,
is n politician. The pO,cer Of the feie7W
0crsrHntent in the South is something me
do not Teaii-c here IN tie North at all.
Nobody pretcnds TO resist a United States
officer, no matter how low the grade of
that officer may be. A deputy United
States marshal could go into South
crn town to day and drag the most
prominent citizen Of the town
out of his bed into the street, and through
the streets, and if it were known that he
WAS n federal officer nobody would pre-
tend to resist him. This great authority
has been shameieSSly mtSItSed throughout
the South bg set of political gamblers,
,cho call hemseLUei Republicans, and most
of rhom ,oo,tLd more property hare bee"
caiied robbers"
Remembering the political affiliations
of Mr.. NoRDHoFF, his long experience
As a professional observer of men and
things, and the character of the body to
which he presented the result of his
Southern Investigations is impossible
To over estimate the significance and the
value of the verdict given above. Com
pressed within the narrow compass OF
aisgrsph We have the perfected fruit of
Republican reconstruction. Ten years OF
that system have brought about condi-
ton of affairs so thoroughly and irredeem
ably disgrsceful that no American can
contemplate it without blush OF shame.
Russis's government of Poland and Eng
lands government of Ireland, become
respectable and benefcient when COM
pared with the vile tyranny which
succession OF Republican administrations
has built up and consolidated IN the
South. Federal office holders, the under
strappers of the Republican party, have
done and are doing dirtier work in states
belonging to the Federal Union than
has ever been done in any civilized
country in modern times. Yet we are
asked to continue that party in power,
in order that more work Of the same
kind may be accomplished.
One passage in Mr.. NoRDHoFF's ties.
tlmony we desire to call special atteD-
tion to:
The power Of the federal government
in the South is something we do not re-
alize here in the North at all"
If we did realize that power by IFS
being brought hone to US as 1t is in the
South, the Republican party would
perish, not by mild death at the ballot
box, but by a popular revolution hardly
less terrible than that of France in 1889. |
Maine, Massachusetts and Vermont
would not endure twenty-four hours the

yoke which Mississippi,yN Loais,anas
and soash csr0lina have won
patiently for ten 1ong years. They
would rise and fight and be fully
justified in fighting. Yet when the
people Of these Southern states propose
to redress their grievances through the
peaceful processes of election, the Re-
publican party denounces them as rebels
and traitors, and Republican admins
trstion sends federal soldiers to support
the negre and earpet-bsg tyrsnts. What
sort Of republic is il where such des-
potism as this can flourish? What sort
of people are we to permit such crimes
to be perpetrated in the name OF liberty
What must be the inevitable fate of q
government which, calling itself free
exerts all its energies for the mainte
nance. of the meanest form of political
slavery the world has ever seen?

Republican Caucus.

WAsHINGToN, December 2l.-The
Republican Senators held a caucus this
morning for the purpose OF determining
whether the pending resolution offered
by Mr.. Mitchell Tor an investigation of
Governor Growers action IN regard 10
the Presidential elector should be pressed
to its passage, it being considered advlsa-
BILE by soma to discontinue the pro-
longed discussion of the subject, in view
of the fact that the Committee on Priv
ileges and Elections have already been
given. by the adoption of MIR. Edmunds'
resolution, substantially the same power
on this subject rs that proposed by Mr..
Mitchelps resolution. After some dis
cusslon, it was decided to press the resO-
luton to a passage and thus make a
special case in regard to Oregon. No
other action Was taken and nothing was
said on the subject of the joint committee
which is to be appointed by the pre-
siding officers of the two houses, TO re-
port some plan for the settlement OF all
anticipated dlsagreemen.s in regard to
counting the electoral votes, &c. 1t is
generally understood that the MEM
bers of the committee on the part of the
Senate will not be designated until after
the House committee shall have been sp-
pointed.

SHALL WE HAVE MEETING

The number of inquiries coming IN to
US every day, as to whether our State
Executive Committee intends to call a
meeting of the citizens OF West Virginia
on the Sth of January, requires us TO say
,bot tho committee now have the matter
under advisement, and at the proper
time will take such steps as the occasion
reouires. We know that there is very
General desire on the part OF the conser-
vative people OF the State to have an op-
nor.pnity TO assemble in meetings ana
express their indignation at the outrages
which have SO recently been perpetrated
unon the country. This is natural iee!-
ino and in these matters the people are
generally ahead of the leaders. But we
csn afford to be patient little whlle'
with the assurance that our Executive
committee will act promptly when the
time arrives for action. 1t is not soSo-
lutelv necessary that the meetings shol-a
be held on the Sth of January, though
that would be an appropriate day. 1t
,;,bt hs better TO wsit until the meeting
OF the Legislature, which is on the loth,
and perhaps by that time the report OF
the Congressional committees will be H.
s,d we will have all the facts before us.
One thing can be relied on, ard that Is
opr West Virginia Democrats are ready
to respond to any call that may be made
On them, and whatever course OF action
ou- brs,hern in the great Northwest
may agree upon they can depend on US
We therefore say to our friends, rest
easy. and it will be all right IN gooo

Minnesota Democrats Stand firm

ST. PAUL, December 2l.-A meeting
of leading Democrats from various parts
of the state, some fifty in number, as
sembled in this city to-day, at the invita-
ton OF the chairman of the Democratic
State Cen tral Committee, to discuss the
political situation. The meeting was
secret and little that transpired is known
to the puclic, except that they adopted Il
resolution declaring it as the firm con-
yiction of the Democrats of Minnesota
that Tilden and Hendricks were fairly
elected; that they behold with regret
what appears to be conspiracy on the
part OF the administration and corrupt
politicians to count in Hayes and
Wheeler, in disregard to all law; repu-
dating the assumption that the
President of the Senate has the de-
termination of all disputes with regard
to the electoral vote, and declaring that
the House of Representatives has equal
right with the Senate in such settlement,
and we propose, in common with all
patriotic citizens, to support 1t in the ex-
erclse OF its constitutional rights.

HOUSE.

Mr. Pratt offered a resolution for the
ADJ ,inLment of select comBittee TO
inves gate the charges made yesterday
bv Mr.. Hewitt, that his letters had been
tampered with in the New York post
office. In connection with it, Mr.. Platt
sent to the clerks desk and had read 3
telegram from Postmaster James pro
nouncing the accusation utterly and
absolutely false.
Mr.. Hewitt said the circumstances
under which he made the charge was as
follows: About month ago he received
letter, the writer stating tnst ne was an
enploye in the New York Postothce
and that he felt bound to communicate
the fact that SHADES little kettle was at
work on bis letters. The only attention
which he had ,elt called upon to
pay to this anonymous letter was to OBJ
serve closely the letters which be
had received, and had found that
a considerable number of them present d
the appearance Of having been opened,
the flaps of the envelopes presenting Il
puckered or corrugated appearance. He
had called the attention OF the gentlemen
in his office to the fact, and they had
been able 10 pick out two classes OF letters,
those which had been apparently opened
and those that had not been. When he
had come to Washington he WAS
struck with the fact that
the letters received from Bos ton
Chicago and other points, had = perfectly
smooth surface on tue flaps Of envelopes
while frequently letters from New I"rE,
presented that corrugated appesrace. de
had happened TO show 10 Park GOODWIN,
friend of the postmaster, one OF these
envelopes, and asked him If II had not
been opened, Mr.. Goodwin said 1t look
ed so, he had then asked Mr.. Good win 10
see Mr.. James. in whose integrity,
he Mr. Hewitt had entire confidence,
and whose valuable service should be
retained through all mutations in politics
and to mention the matter 10 him.
He Hewitt wished the House 70 under
stand he did not think Mr.. james would
be or could be party 10 any tsmPer-
ING with the letters. He had shown TWO
letters one morning TO the gentleman
from Maine, Hale and hsd pointed out
the corrugated appearance on the en-
velopes and Mr. Hale hsd tod him
be ought TO call the attention OF the
House TO the matter II ne
thought his letters were tampered
