IrIsa part Of the Notwithstanding
programme Of the Ku-Klux Democracy
that some one of their number shall come
forward at such juncturcs as tho present,
when important elections are pending in
the North, and profess unexamplcd opposi-
tion to the proceedings of their fellow
sassins IN the South. The red-handed
LAMAR is doing this now. The Concilia-
tors are expected to believe his false pro-
fessious at once, aud rela1 their efforts In
behalf Of the Republican party. When the
rebels surrendered at Appomatto1 and
Greensboro the cry went forth that the
work of the Republican party was done.
A similar cry goes mp every time this bien.
nil renewal Of that surrender occurs in
the politis~i field. Too frequent repetition
of this fragrant deception has worn QUE the

HOW TO SECURE PEACE AND UNITY.


Our contemporary at the Nations Capital,
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, alleging that 1t
Is quite evident the Observer Is under q misap-
prehension US 10 tho feeling existing at tho
North toward the South. proceeds to describe
that feeling and says;
when the war closed and peace ens,ied with the
Sorth the quarrel was ended. and feeling of au.
imosty was revived In that section toward the
southern people 30 long as the Constitution and
laws Of the country were respected as all entirely.
In reply to which we have only to say that
IL such state OF kindly feeling did really
exist ut the North, we have indeed long labored
under u strange delusiou. But our rccollcc-
tion, beginning with the hanging Of that inno-
cent woman, Mrs. SuRRATr, and running down
through all the successive phases Of reconstruc-
tion carpet-bsg governments, iron clad oaths,
disiranchsement, negro rule, Ku-klux wars,
Federal troops controlling State Legislatures
and oil the rest Of ii, recalls no surh kindly
picture a. thai drawn by our cotenporary.-
RGieigh ". e. OJsorsr.
1t is hard TO reason with any one who is
behind an intrenchment OF iancicd griefs
and stafwart preindices, and hence ii seems
to be waste of words and effort to attempt
to convince our North Carolina contemporary
that the war of rebellion waged against the
Government by the South was not right,
and to overcome it by armed force was not
wrong. The hanging OF Mrs, SURRATT
grew out Of the assassination of President
LINCOLN. She was tried as other culpri.s
are tried she was ably and pcrsistently de-
Tended, but she was convicted by the tri-
bunal before which she was arraigned, SEN
fenced, and executed in conformity with
that sentence II she WAS an innocent
woman which the tribunal that adj
Judged her thought she was uot-is that a
grief to be nursed through a decade? Car
"pet-bag governments" in their best or worst
estates, were tho fruits Of the war which
the North did not commence, hut
which they ended, or supposed they
had ended. "The iron-clad oath seemed
TO be demanded as much us the bandaging
of broken limb. Disfrunchisement was
for the crime of treason, and should excite
gratitude rather than animosity. "NegrO

for tho enforcement Of law and order

followed under the powers of the Counstitu'

THE fact that JonN RUSSELL YouNG
wrote the CESAR Articles in the New
York Herald in l-75-'7G, and is now writing
interviews with his imaginary CESAR,
simply shows his versatility as q journalist.
At the same time he is doing good service
in this interviewing line by counteracting
what little influence his work of two and
three years ago had upon the country. No
one can read his interviews with General
GRANT as they are now being printed
without having all idea or fear of the pos.
sibility of Cgsarism removed from his imlg-
ination-the only place where that idea oil
fear ever existed. 1t must be amusing to

1T seems to astonish large numbers OF
people to learn that General Grant is a
talker. Those who have known him in the
private relations of life have relished this
quality on many occasions. But he is man
of moods, and it is his habit to be listener
rather than o talker. When he is in talk
ing mood, however, he has few equals among
our pablo men rs a conversationalist. Ono
thing should be known in this connection
- explanatory of his reputcd retieence, and
that is that lie never talks for public effect
and is always cautious regarding the per.
sons to whom hs talks. This caution was
bred of natural discretion during the war
and made serviceable In his civil career US

THE TRUTH OF HISTORY,

Months ago The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
called attention to the diseontent among
the working,nen Of tbs country, and when
the National party was being organized al
luded to IL ~ . political factor IN the near
future Of more or less importance, and that
1t would not do for the Republican party to
ignore the fact Of its growing power To-
day the prophetic language Of this Paper is
bring realised. The Nationals arc power
to command respect when they revolution
izo Democratm party discipline In South
ern State as they did in Tennessee few
days ago and elected in many places their
entire ticket. But II IL in tho North and
West where tho new party is being in
creased and gaining power and strength
wlfiuh tbreatensI to affect the Republican
party more or less and injure their pros
poets for majority in the next Hoase Of
Representatives
The disastrous legislation Of the Democ-
raey in the lower branch ofour National Leg
islaturs for the past several gears has been
the cause Of many Of the evils now aillict-
ing the country. At a time when the Gov
ernment shoul have stepped 10 tho front
and relieved IN great measure the distress
prevailing, by liberal and judicious appro-
priations, the demagogery Of Demo
cratic House failed to disburse the necessary
sums aud their orators, by o willfnl mis-
representation Of tho facts, placed the blame
upon the Republicans, and which many OF

\ If tho National party, the Greenbacl

came around the corner. Another buggy
was ahead, and, to avoid getting things
mixed, Mr.. Rogers drew to the left. But
the maneuver was in vain. Things were
bound 10 get mixed anyhow. That buck
board on wheels was just as
sure as death aud taxes, and the collision
followed. The blackboard was damaged.
and So was the buggy. Its thills were broken
and the horse tilted; the opposing force
loosing two wheels. The buggy was left on
tae dlsconsolate wayside m the pale moon
light, andits late occupants made fair di-
vision of the 8 oils. One picked up the
cushion, the other the linen lap-robe; then
one took the whip and tue other the hitching

No Better Choice.


A more popular man than Albert Scheffer
is not in the district, and as to his ability
and integrity there is no doubt. If Mr..
Scheffer will receive and accept the nomin-
alton for Congress in this district, he will
undoubtedly come out of Ramsey county
with $500 or 5000 majority over Washburn,
and in nearly every county in the district
would receive more than his party vote.
When Mr.. Scheffer was candidate for State
treasurer in 1875, against as popular a man
as Col. Pfaende-, he run way ahead of his
ticket in this county, and although the Re-
publican ticket had about 10000 majority in
the State, and notwithstanding Col. Pfaen-
der had nearly unanimous vote in Brown
county. he (Pfaender) was barely elected.
The Democrats could make no better,
stronger and more popular choice than to
nominate Mr., Scheffer,

Infanticide Most Horrible.

At $50 o'clock yesterday morning, as
Urban Ulgeir was walking along the brink of
the river close by the warehouse near Ian
gevin's, in West st. Paul, he discovered the
remains of dead infant lying close to the
waters edge. He Immediately notified
Coroner Stein, who proceeded to the spot.
The corpse was that 0. newly-born male
child, and was swathed in striped calico, the
bundle being bound by string wound around
from the neck to the Iowa part OF the alb
domen. The infant appeal ed to have been
strangied at birth, ana, Attn ough dry when
found, seemed tn have been III the water or
to have been exposed for thee weeks to the
sun and air, being thus too decor opposed Tor

all evidence as to identity or other cIrcum-
stan ces Of death, no inquest was hello, and
the remains were inferred in Oakland c. ne
terls on the order of the coroner.
