THERE heavy pressure now on the 'gold dol

capitalists having paid them all out dollar for

will come down to 95., 9Oc 85c etc, and perhaps,
like the Mexican dollar, will then be looked upon
with so much suspicion to be hardly worth pick

hundred years of experimenting is yet at the

1t is not 50 strange when you consider that
all the Legislation of Congress for the last
ten or fifteen years has been shaped and ma
tured to favor the money rings and bond

on this subject you will hear howl that will

be revered.

Gen Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, is now
in the United States Senate and recently delivered
speech therein Without either condemning or ap-
proving his line of argumen-for this paper is not
political one--we cannot forebear quoting and en-
dorsing his views on one point We are taunt-
ingly told said he that proof of our disoyalty is
found in the presence on this floor of twenty-five
members who served in the Confederate army and
the South is reproached, nay, denounced, for send
ing such TO represent her here. Sir, the answer
TO this charge is simple Nearly every in the
South who could bear arms was in her armies and
she can scracey be reproached with justice for trust
ing and honoring in peace the who risked their
fortunes and their lives for her in war. And when
the fact is cited that while the South sends so many
of her old soldiers to represent her in this august
assembly the North sends but four, | submit that
the reproach, if reproach rests anywhere, belongs
rather to the North than 10 the South"
Senator Hampton speaks truly, when he says we
have but four Union Generals in the Senate These
are Burnside Logan, Plumb, and Kellogg Now
among our Generals were hundreds of officers of
splendid culture and promising statesmenlike quail
ties, who ought not to have been pushed aside, to
forward the advancement Of thrd-rate lawyers, who
skulked off to Canada during the war or hired sub
sttutes The people of the North lack that deep,
warm sympathy for those who fought for the Union
cause which is felt by all classes in the South for
those who fought her battles This is the very
truth. There is no Disgusting it, Men ofthe Union
give your eminent soldiers many of whom have lost
their limbs and health in your service the State and
National Offices They are equally as capable of fill
ing positions and You can show your gratitude and

Politics at Soldiers Graves.

We do not think the dead honored and we are
the living not benefited 10y raising political battle
cries their moldering bones 1t is indecent the
last degree unparotc and unchrisan to stir up hatred
and strife such occasions. If the people of this
try to live in peace together if the reunited State
to be members of the harmonious family if our
future is to be what should bea of unprecedent
ed prosperity and gory-ths annual howl of the dema
gogue the soldiers graves had better be suppressed
healthy public opinion should condemn it in all sections
aud demand that such abuse of sacred and solemn
occasion shall cease Washington Post June Is.
We take the above extract from the Washington
Post, the leading organ of the Democratic party
published at Washington, D. c.. and heartily ndorse
its views on the subject The men who gained for
us the Union by their lives and valor, were of va
ried shades Of political opinion, but they were
upon the question that Nation should not be
divided or perish 1t has been contended that more
Democrats than Republicans were in the Union
Army, but, be this it may, it should never be the
part of any orator entertaining Republican views to
make the graveyards of our soldiers places for
arousng party spirit or strengthening sectional an
imostv We are sure such feelings would not have
been encouraged by Abraham Lincoln, the great
chief of the Republican party The war is over
We are one nation, and God grant that never again
shall this fair land be desecrated by civil commotion
But, while thus saying we at the same time firm
was one involving the highest interests of freedom
and that every man engaged in aiding it deserves
the appreciation and applause of his country and the
world, and further, that his opponents, however
brave and selfsacrifcing they might have been
sustaining a cause altogether reprehenabe. We
take this position-a Union soldiers will adhere to
it-and never propose to change or abandon it,
There cannot be question about which two per-
sons differ in which both will be in the right
Recognizing, then, the glorious and honorable part
taken by our soldiers in maintaining nationa-
ty, and considering they are entitled to go down in
history as equally patriotic and praseworthy as
those who fell at Bunker Hill Princeton, or Cow
pens, we believe the American people never will
allow the day to come when their graves will be
viewed with indifference, or their memories cease to
be revered
The National tribune., 1879-07-01
Old Tecumseh's Views.

Among the sentiments recently expressed bv Gen
era sherman in letter to young friend in New
Orleans, we find the following: tThe great trouble
OF the South the great cause of all her woes has
been the localism of her brilliant minds Instead
of boasting Of the spot where one was born bv an
accident over which he had no control should sup
pose every American would be proud of his whole
country rather than of part Therefore | hope
and pray that the new men of the South with whom
l class you, will cultivate pride in the whole
United States of America instead of the mere ate
and locality of BIRTH
These words for southern fellow-ctizens
TO ponder upon, not feel offended at. He who
circumscribes the area of his patriotism TO the mar
row bounds of State instead of allowing il to ex-
tend to the limits of Nation, is in the position of
one breathing the dense atmosphere of confined
room rather than the heathfu breezes from the
mountain. And then, the statesman or citizen who
cultvates this feeling inevitably dwarfs morally and
intellectually, all his thoughts and actions The
origin of this sentiment doubtless was in the nsti-
tuition of slavery for it manifested in any
of the non-slaveholding States, and that the
country is homogeneous IN character-all free-we
look for the steady decay and abandonment of such
narrow, mpotic views glorious future is be-
fore the South if she will become thoroughly Ma
honaii2ed Her waste places viii soon be repaired,
and the desert shall blossom as the rosen
brave, valiant, warm hearted people, if they will but
lay aside the pre0dices of the past and enter into
and upon a new career they will within genera
tion, witness indeed land of which they may well
feel proud Let the term The South spoken of
as having separate interests from the rest of the
Union, be abandoned, and let the States where sla-
very existed be known only part of that
Union, in which each portion shall vie with the
other in advancing the general interest of the whole
Nation

The Death Of Young Napoleon.

1t is announced in Holy Writ that not spar
row falls to the ground without His knowledge
and those who believe in the nterpostion of Heaven
in the affairs Of men, will recognize special Provi-
dence, in the death of young Napleon at the hands
Of the Zulus Of Africa. Actuated by two motives
military glory the other to win the hand of Vic
toria's daughter for which he was an aspirant he
took up arms to fight people, who only act on the
defensive, against the encroachments of power ever
seeking in a most unjust and unchrstian spirit to
extend its domains Within few hundred miles of
the Cape of Good Hope the region OF country where
he fell, in the South Atlantic Ocean, stands the in
hospitable and rock-boHnd island of Saint Helena
where the great uncle of the Prnce-N Napoleon Bo-
naparte--was banished by the English and died
How wonderful the euriosities of history Behold
the great nephew, laying down his life for England
the power who debased and crushed the founder Of
the Napoleon dynasty The death of young Napo
leon ends the hopes of the Bonapartiss to govern
France There was no real danger of this we ap-
prehend for the glorious Republic of France is now
fixed fact Thank God, that SO it is All honor
to the land, that gave birth to one beloved by all
Americans Lafayette--and those who aided in es-
tablishing American Liberty France is daily
through our example chiefly, becoming more thor
oughy acquainted with the practical workings
OF our system Of government and we hope the day
is not far distant, when emperors kings princes and
their satellites will be unknown on earth and when
these lines will cease to be alas too true
There are ntneg-dnd-atne, that live and die,
In and hunger and cold,
That reve in luxury,
And be Tapped in its silken fold.
