What Gen. Longstrect says.
Gen. Lonrstrrct writes the following letter
to the editor of this Allogan (SIich.) Journal
1t speaks for itself:
GAISisvTLLE, Ga, Oct %, 1871.
Hon. u. G. Henderson, Atspap. Mich:
DEAR SIR: . Your views Of govern.
mental patronage are certainly warranted
by custom in cases, and by fair infercnces
for services rendered yet there seems to be n
loose screw somewhere, which gives phase Ia
this administration, differing somewhat in Its
bearing to party alliances from those that pre-
ccded II.
Democrats In some instances claim that the
President Is indebted to their party for his
high Office, inasmuch as that party held In Its
hands tho power to prevent the electoral
count, and thus to prevent the inauguration
Some claim that tho count would not be al-
lowed but for certain guarantees that the
policy OF the new administration would DO In
| sympathy with their party, so far ut least ms
| submission to their claims to the Government.
| Guarantees not implied In tho oath of Office
| under the Constitution are Unusual, but II
| seemed better to submit to the enforcement OF
| their claim by the other party than to enforce
| the claims of tho Republican party.
III. r
| administration Is its conciliat0ry policy,
| and this seems most needful TO the
country just now. II Is true that this
higher plane from which to move to fu.
| ture progress, could have been more gracefully
reached through judicious selections from the
| Republican party, and as cfiicaciously; but
| since II has pleased the President to seek Il
| through other channels let us submit his
plans to a fair trial. The Senate Is In u condi.
| tion to check 1t whenever 1t Is thought better
| to do so.
| President Grant after his frst Inauguration
essayed asimilar policy, but then neither party
was ready for It, and he was forced back intr
party lines. Now both parties seem ready
and the question is how best to roach 1t.
| 1t Is interesting to witness leaders and
Democrats Of tho line seeking Office Of q Re
publican President, whose election they claim
WAS fraudulent, while they continue to dc
nounce those OF the South who accepted Office
from President Grant, whose election they
| never questioned.
am, sir, very respectfully, truly yours,
| JAMES LONGSTREET.

The Solid South.

To plant the South square against the
North has been the day and night dreams
of those who surrendered the lost cause
because they had no power to sustain it,
until they now share the hope that they
haye accomplished that end. The South is
Rolidly Democratic now politically. The
Republican cause has to all appearance
been given away-we will not say absO-
lutely betrayed. Through force, outrage
fiuences, the Republican cause has been liter
: ally blotted out in the Southern States,
much to the delectation of the late insur-
gents and their Northern Democratic allies.
They think they have a solid South against
divided North, but, after all, that hope
been led to examine their title, and they do
not find it to contain the full clause of war
rantee that they desire, They begin to dis
cover that there are chances of a slip in the
final holding of the power they seem to have
gained temporarily, and they raise the warn
ing voice. The Raleigh IN. c. Ners, II solid
Southron rings the alarm in these gentle
tones, which mean much more than It's TEN
perate phrases imply
We have again unqucstoned power in the
National Legislature. Let us beware how we
use it, Let us be sure to exercise 1t with all
due caution, prudence and wisdom. Any step
ON our part which will revive the spirit OF
tcctionalism and tend to solidiiy the North
against solid South will prove disastrous In
the end, whatever temporary advantage we
might gain by 1t. We must bear in mind that
the Democracy have the House by but small
majority. A change of ten districts will put
tho Republicans in power and lead in tho di-
rcction of Republican success in lssO. Let us
be- sure not to suffer the House to slip from
our grasp With such prospect in full view,
with victory In its lroadest, most coinpre-
bensiys and most glorious sense almost
perched upon our banners, any mistake by the
Representatives of the South in Congress
likely to jeopardize our majority in the NEXT
House would be folly akin to crime. With
elevated craftsmanship, p, true moderation, and
broad national patriotism guiding our cOun-
sels, we shall see the South few years hence
enoe more in \ controlling position in national
affairs.
This writer seems to understand that
while good cause is often ruined by indis'

ryond the number nov

the cavalry regiments beyond the number now
allowed by law.
Mr.. SCHLEtCHER said he was satisfied 'h,t
this important bill could not be passed unless
there was n spirit " compromise, and inti-
matCd his willingness TO accept tho amend
ment. lie was satisfied the re luctiou Of tho
infantry would cripple the service elsewhere;
but as Texas wanted cavalry ho accepted the
amendment, and left the responsibility for the
injury to the infantry where II belonged.
Tho amendment was agreed to-ayos 1G5,
noes 115.
| Mr. BANNING offered further amendmen
that nothing herein contained should be con.
| strued 10 authorize the increase of the army
beyond 25,0D0 men. Adopted.
Mr.. WADDELT. offered au amendment that
after the Both Of June, 1873, appointments to
| the Military Academy shall not be more than
one from each State, to be appointed by the
Governors, and that supernumary officers of
the army be employed as Instructors. Ruled
out on point Of order.
| Mr.. FOSTER, when the clause aLpropriating
81 ,30O.OO0 for the payment of the army was
reached, called attention To the fact that the
amendment offered by Mr.. TUCKER authorized
an increase Of the cavalry from 5000 to 1900,
and said more money would be required for
their payment
| Mr.. ATKINS suggested that this subject he
left until the amendments could be had In
| Mr.. CONGER who had renewed his point Of
order on Mr. fuckers second proposition md
| had been Overruled said he desired to call the
attention Of the Chair to the admission of the
chairman that the amendment involved an in.
creased expenditure. Whether this opinion Of
the committee would have any effect upon the
Chair no was unable to determine. The chair
man had admitted that the amendment in
creased the expenditure so much that he could
not compute II In his present disturbed state Of
mind. tI.aughter.l
A prolonged debate arose upon the number
Of men In the army.
| Mr.. McGINNESS urged that the frontiers
of the Territories of New Mexico and Arizona
required protection, and pointed out the
dangers and losses that could have been
averted had the army been larger. He urged
that the presence Of troops In the Northwest
would act rs n check upon Sitting Bull, who
otherwise would return and sweep the country
to the Pacific Railroad
| Bfr. TOWNSEND. of N. Y. explained that
the army cost more now than larger number
did in 1850, because, through advancing civili-
zatiOn the country over which 1t operated
had been vastly extended. He pointed out
the necessity for troops to suppress the In
| dian disturbances. 1t was the duty Of the
Government to protect its citizens, and there
should be no hesitation in sending troops to
protect these people. There was but one other
way to do with those Indians, and that was to
withdraw the troops aud conciliate them
Laughter on Republican side.
On motion Of Mr.. ATKINS, the committee
rose, and debate on pending paragraph was
limited to twenty minutes; and on motion ol
Mr.. LUrrRELL, at 3:55 p. M, the House
adjourned.

Burning mt the stake.

Among the peculiar institutions of the
South, since slavery is abolished, is burning
at the stake by a mob as an instrument OF
torture for crime. 1t appears that a
negro named WRIGHT, living near Craw-
ford, Ala, who had been guilty of brutal
crime, which deserved condign punishment.
was taken BY the people, and, without the
form of trial. was burned publicly at the
stake. In referring to this popular and bar
barous crime, for it is nothing less, the
Atlanta (Ga.) Chronicle has the following
sensible comment:
1t is true that the negro has done deed
for which he deserved to die a thousand deaths
But every man in the country, no matter
what his race or color. accused Of crime, is en-
titled to fair trial by an impartial jury. There
is no pretencc that the courts Of Alabama are
not competent to administer the laws prop
erly. The criminal would have had speedy
trial and punishment, and the mob had no
right to anticipate the processes of the law
and the judgment Of the courts.
To this the Atlanta Consultation adds the
following:
Not only were the acts Of the mob In viola.
tion of the law but they arc calculated ia
work disaster to the material interests Of no,
only Alabama, but the rest of the South. Fol
no immigrant, looking for a new home, will
for a moment think of settling in n State or
section that permits mobs to supersede courts.
The senselcss burning of OWEN WRIGHT may
cost the cotton States million of dollars
coming as it did at time when immigrants
were looking this way from all the Northern
States.
We are glad to see the southern press tax,
ing sensible and conservative view Of
Southern outlswry, which has 80 long
marked the history OF that section. 1t has
already cost the late insurgent States M
amount of values in property and public re
spect that cannot be reco vered in half cen
tury by the wisest circumspection of con
duct.
