THE Brookhaven (NIiss) Leger refers to
the late Yazoo outrage with some trepida-
tion. 1t seems to have dawning fear OF
Northern sentiment, and well it may. 1t
says: THE Democracy of this State cannot
indorse the action of the Democrats of
"Yazoo County. They did not demand
that DIXON should withdraw from the
political contest, as first reported, but
that he leave the county. He de-
elined to obey. His intimate friends
then prevailed upon him to withdraw
from the contest for the sake of the
people, and he wrote the card published
"in our last issue. The people of Yazoo
County feel that they were justified in
making the demand, rs it was understood
that DIXON would attempt to rally the
negroes to his support, but their action
cannot be indorsed. 1t will prove pow
"erful argument for the Radicals up North
"and will be used to defeat EWING in
Ohio, and other Northern Democratic
candidates" The Leger may as well
understand that time will bring its cure for
all these ills. The North will correct all
this-not by the bullet, but by the ballot
though the process may be slow, it will be
very sure and lasting.

WHEN the Democrats are hunting for de-
preston and calamity among the laboring
classes they take particular pains to confine
the limit of their inquiries to the large cit
les. The number of loafers who walk the
streets of those localities complaining of
hard times while their betters are at work
in the harvest-felds of the adjoining coun-
try-sides, is growing less every day ; but the
few of them who have been caught and
used as witnesses before the WRIGHT COM
mittee will awake to find themselves famous
when the report of their testimony is made
up. AT the same time those who make up
the report will find themselves equally in
famous.

The mud machine has done its work
and dumped its filth upon the public mind,
where it is regarded with loathing and dis
gust. The assalants of Senator CoNKLING
are beginning to crawfish and seek abiding
place in deep water already, and we greatly
misapprehend the case and the nssaied if
his assailants are not called to account for
the deeds done on this occasion. Humble
pie will be the first course of the feast that
awaits these graceless defamers, and they
are on that dish now. Crow will follow.
This affair may be regarded as among the
most wanton and fragrant assaults on private
reputation that have characterized the annals
of calumny in this country. Nothing but
satanic malice and hate could possibly have
invented and published this graceless and
cruel scandal, which has freighted the col
umns of the New York World and its feeble
and filthy echo in this city to repletion. The
performance is without parallel in journal
ism, and insignifcance in character and
standing alone can save the offenders from
condign punishment. Public sentiment is
rapidly crystallizing in deep-seated con-
tempt for the inventors and propagators of
this most infamous onslaught upon private
reputation, which is as dear as life 10 every
man and woman of self-rcspect. Those who
have no character left are the first usually
to depredate upon that of their superiors.
1t has been eminently so in this case.

NoBoDY can imagine what business Senator
Wallace has to meddle with the suffrage laws
of Rhode Island but 1t is possible that he
wants to show to the Democrats Of certain por-
tions of Pennsylvania how much easier are the
conditions of suffrage under Democratic aus
pices than they are in q purely Republican
State. When, for example, a Luzerne County
man remembers that he was able to vote the
Democratic ticket six months after reaching
this country merely by obtaining naturaiSa-
tion paper that had been dipped in coffee
pot, naturally he is glad to think now much
better off ho is than a native-born Rhode Is
lander who cannot vote unless he owns prop.

Our Dlstrlct Goysrnmcnt.

TO ho Editor Of The National Republican,
SIR: Changing the place and keeping tho
pain" would be the result of changing the men
and administering tho local government un-
der the present form. Not but what we ad-
NIT one man might be better than another
and be moro acceptable to the people. But
no man is good enough to govern us on tho
present plan, and the worse the men the sooner
we shall be rid of this miserable and anti.Re-
publican system. Violent resistance against
the authority of the Commissioners would be
perfectly right, and It will como to this before
long If peaceful methods fail. Q.

pose, and to interfere in any degree with
nominations was o violation of their origi-
nal purposes and intents. What we have
regretted from the day Of the downfall of
these associations Is that, because two of
them had behaved in an unseemly manner,
the whole should have been destroyed. 1t
is not regarded as the part of wisdom in
the owner of fabric to demolsh 1t entirely
because one or two bricks prove defective,
while the balance are unimpaired, and the
structure is not materially affected by this
trivial imperfection. 1t has not appeared
to be the part of fairness and justice to
order the immolation of all the other asso-
Citations for the reason that those of Ohio
and Pennsylvania have been guilty of acts
inconsistent with the fundamental princi-
pies and purposes Of their organization. II
is scarcely possible, under all these circum-
stances, to justify the sweeping consequences
of order No. 1, to which the President clings
with so much pertinacity.
1t was the good fortune Of the editor of
THE REPUBLICAN to be somewhat promi-
nently identified with the early history of
the New York Republican Association, the
pioneer association at the National Cap
ital. 1t was organized to aid in the elections
not in caucuses or nominating conventions
and at no time was 1t ever used for any
other purpose than that which stimulated
its formation. 1t was always jealous and
efficient in advancing the cause of Repub.
licanism through the election of Republican
candidates. 1t was never, to our knowledge,
used for any other political purpose, and
hence we have deplored its overthrow very
sincerely, for it was invariably an unflinch-
ing supporter of Republican principles and
tickets down to and through the election
which declared Mr.. HAYES President. This
association bore conspicuous part in that
contest; it had never given the slightest
offense against the proprieties Of its political
relations and to be sacrificed on account of
any act of folly or impropriety committed
in Ohio or Pennsylvania is an act of injus-
tice against which its spirit has rebelled
since its death was demanded and accom-
plished.
1t now appears that way has been found
to retabernacle the spirit Of the Ohio as-
sociation in another form, which will sub
serve the Republican intetest in that State.
This is a matter of profound rejoicing, and
it is to be hoped that inventive genius will
not exhaust itself in that effort but that a
way may be devised in which the other
State associations may put on newness OF
life and activity, and be rendered useful in
the approaching State elections outside OF
Ohio. Let the hand which has led Ohio
out Of the wilderness be pow directed to
the other States where succor is equally
needful. All we ask is Republican success
and that it shall be attained by all the
honorable agencies at the command of the
party

TO the Editor of the National Republican;
sIR The Republicans of South Carolina
take the lead in their fealty to General Grant.
1t was Grant who nterposed the strong arm
of the law in their behalf in 1870, and stopped
the vilainous work of the Klu'Klux Klans,
which had set themselves to work TO accom-
pish the same work which has since been per.
formed under tho present National Adminis-
tration. The South Carolina Republicans be.
lieving that the reelection of General Grant
will insure them the enjoyment of all their
Constitutional rights, are unanimously in his
favor, aud we hesitate not TO express the opin'
ion that the delegates from that State to the
next National convention will stand by him
to the last, as they did In the campaign in 1872,
when other false prophets attempted to swerye
them from the path ofduty. And let me add
that South Carolina will so solid for Tom Set.
