New YORK Tri bune: General Garfield's
speech at the serenade in this city has con-
vinced good many earpers that there is
something higher than partisanship in the
Republican position on the sectional ISSUE
His eloquent tribute to our ''black allies"
has reused the whole Republican party, and
has even stirred to mild fervor some of
most Judicial" of the Independents. This
is not strange. it is a long time since any
American orator has said grander thing
than this about Republican fealty to the
faithful black allies: "We will stand by
them until the sun of liberty, fixed in the
armament of our Constitution, shall shine
with equal ray upon every man, black or
white, throughout the Union. Fellow citi-
zens, fellow soldi ers, in this there is all the
beneficence of eternal justice, and by this
we will stand forever"

PROVIDENCE Journal: That particular
form of free speech which the
Natchez Democrat felicitates itself as
prevalent at the South, in which the
audience have the right to talk as
as well as the speaker, to tell him he is a
liar, and generally to distribute their correct
version of things against Radical falsehoods,
has been illustrated pat upon the announce
ment of the theory, in Brazoria. Texas. One
Amos 7. Bissel, one of the deputy inspec-
tors OF customs, recently addressed the col
ored population of the county on the de
fects in the management of the public
schools and what. they should do 20 remedy
them. In pursuance of the doctrine of free
Speech one DR.. Arscham. cousin of the
School Commissioners closely does the tie
of kindred hold in Texas-denounced him
for attacking the honor of the family. told
him that he was a liar and blanked Yam
kee and subsequently, by way of improving
upon his retort, offered, if any one would
put rope around Bissell's neck to pull his
head off with his black stallion. This last
may have been only Southern pleasantly
for even the Natchez Democrat would hard
ly claim that pulling mans head off was
legitimate exercise of free speech in reply,
but as DR.. Arscham has the reputation of
killing three men, and a Republican clerk of
the courts by the name of Santee has al
ready been shot and killed through the win
dow of his office, Mr.. Bissell may be ex-
cused from feeling that his part in Southern
free speech had better be left in allegiance
lor time. In fact, Mr.. Bissell has left
Brazoria county for more healthy region.
