A SOUTHERN GROwL.

The Greenville Is. c. Daily Ncns begins
to lcarn-what the Wings and Republicans
have known for more than forty years-that
the Democratic party Of the North is as
hollow and hypocritical as Satan himself
1t never has been, as an organization, true to
principles or men, but has been guided by a
sOrdd scliishness that has sought its own
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, no matter at what or whose
expense. The Ncrs makes strong case OF
duplcty and cowardce against the North
ern Democrats in the following wcll-put
editorial:
The Democratic party Of the South has had
u sore experience in the past We do not pro-
pose to go into the particulars of history, but
any person at all acquainted with it knows
what our Northern Democratic friends prom.
iscd Us in ls6O-the material aid that was Of
icrcd the people of the South il they would
assent their right, even though it involved a
collision of arms. Tho people Of the South re.
lied in that contest upon the pledged faith of
Northern Democrats. How 1t was kept Is re-
corded in blood upon the pages OF our cOun-
try's history. And then, after the storm cloud
Of war had been swept from our horizon, and
signs Of peace appeared in the sky /;
when the voice Of tho American poO-
po said LoS those troubles cease, and the
Government bo brought back to its ancient
landmarks, and by their voice elected Presi-

dent, reversing tlH Administration, and plac-
ing In power the representatives of another
party. what did ucse Democrats Of the North
doP What did TlLDES and his friends pro-
pose or acceptH II the hour Of danger they
put upon the Soith the responsibility Of
civil war, and sn,aked the great issue OF
which tho fortunesof the party hung, and let
HAYES be counted n. These are facts, and no
one can deny thtm. Now, after two years
have elapsed, and after HAYES had done as
much for the Souh as TILDES would have
dared do. these Nofbern Democrats have In
auguratcd movement which will throw upon
tho South the responsibility Of displaciug
HAYES or continuing him in office. This Is
the plain, naked tmth, as we understand II /;
and never, incur opinion, have tho Democrats
this.
Tho Republican party knew in 1861, and
charged upon their opponents, that they had
given aid and combrt to the rebellion in its
inception and until the day of fighting and
bloodshed came, and then skunk away into
security, letting their dupes at the South
sustain the shock # war as they best could.
This the Democrats family denied, but the
proof was strong against them, and grew
stronger throughout that fiery struggle
from the studied reticence of that
party for the peuod of its duration.
Individual Democrats enlisted under
the old flag md vindicated both
their courage and patriotism by brave fight
ing, while those who clung to the organiza-
tion and worked the machine during the
war were counted as Copperheads, and at
no convention in oil that time was II
known to raise the voice of condemna-
tion against the rebellion or its conso-
quences to the country. It did de-
nounce the war 10 crush the rebellion
failure, and the bmvo soldiers who went
to the front to fight for the perpetuity Of
the Union, as LINCOLN hirelings." This
is the recorded history of the Democratic
party Immediately before and during the
war, and since, it has counseled the South to
disregard the conditions Of the settlement
of peace as incorporated in the laws of re-
construction and the Constitution of the
United States, and brought upon that section
of country carnival of crime, outrage, and
bloodshed. Never, for one moment, in q
quarter Of century, has the Democratic
party as an entirety been true to the Union
the Constitution, and the laws, or to its
plighted faith in any direction.
The Democrats AT the South have right
to growl at the Democrats of the North ovei
their broken VOWS and acts of cowardly du.
plicity. Before the rebellion they egged il
on. During the rebellion they sneaked
away from the consequence of their per,
fdy, and since the war they have beer
casting about for the chances of politica
advantage, regardless of the public peace
the prosperity Of the country, or the wei
fare of the people. 1t is some satisfaction
to know that the people of the Southern
States, who have been deluded by them
begin to understand and appreciate theil
duplicity and faithlessness. The South has
never had so contemplate an enemy as the
copperhead Democrats of the North, ant
they begin to see II.

confirm, thus leaving Governor BRAYMAH
in position, subject to suspension during
the Congressional recess.
With hostile Indians on his borders and
hostile whites assailing him at the seat Of
his government and here, Governor b. has
had pretty severe time Of it during his
entire term thus far. 1t appears that the
Executive of the Territory cannot put SOL
diers in tho field under the United States
Government, and hence the Governor
and people Of Idaho have no place
in the war which is being waged
within its territorial limits. The Governor,
however, assumes the responsibility fplac-
ing arms, so far as he can obtain them, in
the hands of the people organized into mill
tary companies with proper officers, and
other citizens, for their own protection in
exposed localities. As these arms are received
from the General Government on bonds
for their safe return, the hazard TO the Ter
ritory is somewhat large, and hence indi-
vidual obligations for their return are re-
qrircd The next Territorial Legislature is
expected TO provide laws for the emergency.
Through the enterprise Of the Northwest
ern Stage Company, the Governor had, on
the 17th instant, received three hundred
arms, with ammunition, in advance of regu-
lar freight, which are being distributed in
exposed localities. At that date the Indians
were concentrating at Stems Mountain.
The Malhcurs AMI scattered bands of Ban
nocks were manifesting an uniricndly
temper
The Governor warns the people against
the danger of having these arms captured
by the Indians, and advises them to attend
mainly to protection and defense in their
own neighborhoods aiding, however, the
operations Of the regular forces when pos
sible.
