Monday Morning,

any Democrat point to a single

instance of malfeasance in office on the part of any of "Mister, ^BANT's relation^P Let us heap, w"?

Oca 'economical" Democratic County Commissioners will meet to day. It is a good season of the year for these distinguished officials to discuss "stimulants."

The Secretary of the Interior has decided that a further claim of a father for a pension on account of the death of a son must be filed within five yeara from June 6, 1866, which gives but one more day of grace to intending applicants. am

Philadelphia Post sensibly re

marks that papers which "intend to lay what the New York Herald calls 'The Foundations of Democratic Success,' had better fight the party openly, and ceade to call themselves Republican while they are doing their best to help the Den^pracy to win."

Speaking of the manner in which the Senate "went for" its dignity in the stolen treaty investigation, the Springfield Republican says: "It started out magnifi cently after its Dignity, but came back with it crushed and dirty like a mtn venturing boldly intoa street fight with a new dress coat and a stove-pipe hat, and (.•merging with one torn to pieces, and the 1 I, ,, -'jet'TTOM other'stove, indeed."

A correspondent of aNew York paper now in South Carolina gives this as the language of an intelligent white man: "We can't endure this nigger Government much longer. No white man would stand it to be ruled by Ignorant niggers^ Our people are driven to desperation, and a desperate people don't care what they do. We had rather die than live uuder nigger rule all our lives,and if it can't be got rid of in any other' way, something desperate will be done." This is the the storm Jefferson Davis is brewing —the storm that threatens another civil 'war. ...H'a'

Says the Tribune: "While Mr. ValT.ANDronAM and the Wor\d are trying to pnrsuade us that the Democracy is a brand new party, Which hjui forgptten all the past, frankly accepted the results of the war, and made a fresh start in life, Mr. Jefferson

Davia,

who certainly

knows the Southern Democrats better than either ®f those eminent Northern leaders, is industriously proving that the party is just what it always was, pursuing the same objects now that it pursued ten years ago, holding fast all the old doctrines, and ready for another rejbelion whenever the time seems ripe."

''Force and Fraud."

The St. Louis Republican and many other Democratic organs, declare that the Amendments were adopted "by force and fraud," albeit'they are.willing to accept them as established facts. And Hon. P.. H.

Leslie.

Democratic candidate for

Governor of Kentucky, said, a few days, since, in a campaign speech.: "The Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Constitutional Amendments were forced upon the country by fraud and violence, and his party recognized them as law, blit only until they were decided unconstitutional, which they intended to prove, at the first opportunity.

An odd commentary on the doctrine of infallible maternal instinct is offered by the Tichborne cose now before the English courts, which we find epitomized in the New York Tribune. A certain

Roger Tichborne, heir to a baronetcy ran off when a boy, to Australia, and was lost in the bush. In 1866, he, or his counterfeit reappeared with a wife and three children, claiming his title and estates. Ilis mother recoghized him, and acknowledged him as her son. The executors of the Tichborne property refused to admit liis claims, however, and still refuso, on the ground that the per sons of the real aud feigned Sir

Roger

are entirely unlike, and that whereas the boy who disappeared was educated, and a gentlemen, the present claimant is an- ignorant and vulgar boor, not even able to spell or construct a sentence correctly In his own language. Every day brings up fresh witnesses to swear for or against his identity with equal pertinacity, and with feverish haste, the counsel goading them on either side, as the plaintiff, whether real or sham, is in a dying condition, and uncertain as he is while living, there will be less chance of identifying him as a ghost.

Have you never noticed that there are some families in every community tfho always bear about with them tile marks of reyalty? They are, perhaps, intrinsically no better than their neighbors in many cases they are not even richer yet still there is an air of grandeur and thorough-bred repose about them to which all their acquaintances bow. They ennoble everybody they touch. Does man of ordinary repute, or even a very humble individual, marry into one of these families, immediately he is cleansed of all the dross of plebeianism and elevated at once to a peerage in the eyes of the whole community. From John Smith or Tommy Jones, he rises at once to dukedom and, thoagh it was not noticed before, there is a real Sir Charles Grand ison air about the fellew. Even the ser vants of this family are held in high repute. The humbler class choose them for associates, though the servants of others conld find no access to their family circle. They are not proud, or pert, or "stuck-up." Nobody thinks of calling them so- Their carriage and horses are nothing grand or marvelous, their daugh ters do not lead the fashion, they have no box at the opera or regally upholstered pew in the church. In fact, a stranger would take them for only respectable middle-class people. Yet where they are well known, even Charles Augustus and Flora McFlimsy yield them the jns. (Pirhapi the secret of all thin is thier intense respectability perhaps it is their thorough good-breedinf and self-respect perhaps, their blameless and modest lives. Whatever it may be, they constitute the trne nobility of their neighborhood, and fortunate is the ordinary Smith or Jones on whom the daughters snAle.—Louitville Commercial.

A Southern reporter of the New York Herald says: Mr. Davis is making tour of the Southern States, and speaks to exoited. crowds at every important place. The South is awakening under this inspiration, and the tempest is brewing.

Jeff Davis' Protest Apalust The New Pepartnro. Hon. Jeffersori Davis 'has contributed his help towards answering the question Do tbe-SoMthprn people' in good jfailf accept the situation?*. The Attuita^ Jwjr Era of the 28th reports the reception and

remarks of that personage at ^Atlanta'^ the 27th. We confels to- fre feeling oB

sadness and suprise on findiibg tnat lb tj»e course of his speech of acknowledgement, Mr. Davis expressed himself, or is reported by the New Era—a paper friendly to hira—to this effect: "There was a good deal of talk about 'accepting the situation but as far as he was concerned he would accept nothing. Thftie taiiwfrablcphraBes ^boift acceptmg the situation because our nights had been submitted to the arbitra»ent"pT the'$w'6rd and lost were the excuses 6? dunces and cowards- No .One had arty right to sub* mit the liberties of a.people to the arbitrament of the sword. The representatives of the Southern people had never been authorized to do anything of the kind. As their chief Executive, he had neverteen so authorized, nor did he ever claim-to be. He did not like to be un dergtpod as advocating reawtanpe. the contrary, he counseled submission to existing laws. He knew very well that the conquerer was too powerful to be successfully resisted by the South. It was the duty of'.Gebrgia' and of the oth^r

StateUO keep albejjf from politic* and attend to tbeidevilopment o£. theif internal resources. This wa$ all that could be done at present.

The true friends of the South will read these words with sorrow. Their import can not be understood If this man is not regarded as substantially insane and his counsels as those of a monomaniac if the ovations tendered to him are what he as sumes them to be, ovations not to him personally, hut to the cause he rtpresents if lie speaks influentially to any considerable portion ot theSouthern people, a startling fact is presented for contemplation. The situation is not accepted. Resistance and rebellion are refrained from because the South is too Weak and the government too strong. When this condition shall be regarded as having changed, then, another .l-ebellion may be in .order! This is clearly the meaning of the remarks of Jefferson Da via above.quotsd—too clearly to permit the possibility of questiop.

Now, we are reluctant to believe that this madness is shared by any considerable number ^f the Southern people. Bat does it not look as if Mr. Davis had en ter^l upon, his tour, at the .crisisrin Southern.opinion, with pur posies and as if he were deliberately swinging "round the circle" in order to head off the Val landigham programme? .One or two sen sible journals of the Soiithei'n press -have been preaching. acquiescence and accept tance for a considerable period, and their influence has been ^evidently growing, until, under the pressure, of Northern Democratic policy, a considerable nttm ber of the Southern- papers have formally declared for accepting the. Amendments and "burying the dead issues,". Another considerable number, however, have re fused to do this, but the ino?t of it not, all of these have at least yielded the tfefat of secession. While this progress of! lilTer alism .is at the most promising stage it has yet reached, and when patriotic citifcefis of all parties are hoping.for its complete and genuine triumph, Jefferson Davis reappears, engages in a tour of principal Southern cities, is received with almost boundless reverence and enthusiasm, and declares that "these miserable phrases about accepting the situation because righto have been submitted to the arbitrament 6f the sword and lost are the excuses of dunces and cowards."

How far will this protest affect those Southern journals and men who were about making up their minds to profess acceptance? How will it influence such staunch Bourbons as are represented by the (Memphis Appeal, .Mobile Register, Montgomery Advertiser and Mail, Savan ah Repubiean, &c., &c What light does it Shed Upon the sincerity and reliable* nesa of much Of the Southern acceptance thus far? What does it suggest as the propriety of transferring the government into the hands of the copperhead party of the war, whatever its professions?

Mr. Davis complains that his utterances are used, to the injury of his people. We have ({noted his language as furnished by an Atlanta paper friendly.to him, and the worih he uses are exceedingly plain If they injure his people it must be through thqir being' understood in their unambiguous, and obvious sense, and for such injury who but himself can be blamed? Yet while thus speaking, he professes to" be reticent, and to refrain from expressing himself fully,* front the1 fear that the South would suffelr if he did Then it is reasonable to conclude that he had no modification of the above language to offer, and that if he said more it would be rather an aggravation of it-

Mr. Jefferson Davis would certainly render a very great service to his South' ern countrymen, and some service to his pwn reputation, by ceasing to act the part ofa cunning fomenter of discord. If he is anxious, as he seems to be, that the his1 tory of the country shall vindicate and make glorious the rebellion of which he stood at the head, let him take counsel of a little common sense and. lie will dis Cover that the thing is impossible. He has perpetrated ruin enough. There is no particular necessity that-he should now devote himself to the worst conceivable work in his power, that of strengthening the hope-in the South, and the ap prehension in the North, as a resurrec (ion of "the lost c*U3e."—St. Loui§ Democrat. ..

General (grant's Statesmanship From the Chicago Journal.] The universal opinion at Washington is that Grant has distanced all competitors in statesi&anifkejftdgment. His en emies say that Caleb Cashing has done it, they do not tell us, however, if the great Caleb is so good an adviser,-why they had not wit enough- to seek his counsel, nor do they explain how Grant, if he has no wit, as they pretend, was shrrwd enough to secure masterly coun sel, and to beat them by Caleb at least, if not by his own sense. The fact is that the Presidlnt is thinking, and is taking counsel with himself, while most of those around him are gambling like a bevy of gossips, and when he gives an opinion they awake to the. fact that he has mastered the sutyect, and thereby become master of the situation.

This evident superiority of the silent man in the White House to all the politicians about him, satisfies even those who personally have no cause to love him, that the country cannot possibly do as well as to keep the best General of the war, and the most judicious administrator since the war, at the head of the Government. Large numbers of politicians hate to think that this must be, but they concede that it is inevitable. Mr. Gree ley's idea that a man is fit to serve at all in auch a position will not serve honestly if he has either nope or fear in reg&td to re election before his eyes is certainly inapplicable to the case of man who actually errs in the other direction in not taking sufficient pains to conciliate persons, aftd in putting all his trust in the sincerity of his purpose to do right

It would be better, undoubtedly, if our President could bedpeti and affable and yet preserve-Ilia haBitdf prtffoMwl reflection, and fearless, independent decision he might then be a politician with the politicians, as well as a statesman among statesmen. But we can not make over our great men and it is very likely, -that the making over of Grant, if it could be accomplished, would make him acceptable to the politicians at the cost of (destroying his judgment and courage as a statesman. As the matter

promising, yet judicious and popular, of American statesmen. It may suit the purposes of reckless journalism to sneer at the head of the (Government the intelligent deliberation of the country will toone tjie less!.'settle down upon the con^KctionTthatfrrant is no less a statesman £than ijnoldjer, *nd as iole to settle civil as

Tlie Trials of Journalism. Whitelaw Reid, the managing editor of the New York Tribune, was once, editor of the Xenia, Ohio, News, and like most country editors had his experiences We let him tell his dwn ptory in his ownwords. He Faysthere is one thing unfee Tribune office Whfbfc grieves him/ and thatiia proof reading. And this is hfc story:

I can manage pig-iron for my chief, but I cannot .manage the proof- readers And about one! a week I gel hn injunction from him that I must dismiss a proof eader. And that recalls my early experience when I learned it in a small way. After I had learned printing in a country. house" I went, and bought out a good printing office. In those days, we had college advertisements, which .came into the office with the explanations tiiat "this is to be inserted in case you give an excellent editorial notice along with it."

Oneday we had an advertisement of the Columbus Commercial College and the foreman: came tome and told me there must be an editorial notice of it, My time was short. The' forms were waiting, and I wrote it straightway ''The Columbus Commercial College is an ex cellent and well deserving institution. The'advertisement appears in another column." I sent it to the proof-reader, and went home. 1 got up 'late the next day, and the edition had all been mailed before I saw it. Ydu can imagine the perfectly amiable state of my feelings when I read "The Columbus Commercial College is an excellent and hell de sereing institution." You can't' believe it, but to this day the bill for that advertisement is running. And that reminds me of one other incident. I remember one of those, rare instances in the exper iencepf country printers when a man came into the office to thrash me. I had then arrived at the mature,,age of eighteen, but I was not as vigorous as I am now. In the course of some police items in a country town I had occasion t? note the fact that a certain Dutch butcher height six feet, age 39, weight 200, hac whipped his wife, a proceeding to which I objeeted, and commented on with the severity which I hope the enlightened press of this, country will always exhibit on such occasions.

The next day the butcher came in and proposed to, "interview"- the writer, of that paragraph. He looked at me and inquired if I wrote it. We think quicjc in great perils and people in danger of being thrashed can do a very small amount of ratiocination in a short' time. I saw, there was,no' use of '^arguing, with (he fellow, and said to him: "Hans, are you a subscriber to this paper?"

Hans, who understood thoroughly that he had been maligned, was not so. sure on the subject of subscription, and he shook his bead and asked me what meant, "flans, are you a subscriber to thii pa^er?" Hans scratched his head again and .believed he. was not. I said loudly: "Put your hand into your pocket-book, and give me two dollats to pay your' subscription! Until you do, I would like to know what business it is of yours what we say!"

I escaped the thrashing that time, and commend it to ihe attention of all who put such things in their papers.

HUFCS CHOATE.

The Way he Befriended a loung Man Who Is iiovv a, U. S. Senator. [From John W. Forney's Anecdotes of Public

Men.J

I heard a very pleasant incident, some evenings ago, related by a distinguished Senator in Congrejp from one of the Wes tern States, who was' himself the party immediately benefited. Anxious when quite yiung to complete the study of his profession, he visited Boston and called upon'Mr. Choate, and bffered himself as oner of his Students. Struct By the earnestness and frankne»8 of the appeal, the great lawyer took him into his confidence and soon realized that he could be made useful. At Ihe end of two years, the stn dent informed the pi-eceptdr that he in tended to begin the practice of his pro fession in the.flctarishing State of Wiscon sin.

The answer of Mr. Choate was charac 'teristic. He said: "I honor your deter minaiioh, butjvas belfish enough tdlhope that you mignt remain with me,- yet you have resolved upon this Step you can always rely upon my frendship then aked if he haa any money, to which the young man replied that he had no means to purchase his law library, whereupon

Mr. Choate said, 'Go to Little & Brown (the old-established law publishers), se lect your books, aaS refer them to me as security." Elated by this renewed mark of his esteem, he laid in what he conceiv ed to be a good assortment, and took the list back to the great man, who, glancing over it, said, "Your list is too small,,'? and taking out the legal catalogne, he desig nated with his own hand a very much in creased collection, amounting to some four or five thousand' dollar?, adding "with these tools you can begin something like effective work."

Our young practitioner started for the West, and opened bis office,*but, as bad luck would have it, was stricken down by one of the dangerous fevers of the coun trv. Of course he could not pay the note when it fell due, but Mr. Choate kindly and carefully protected his credit. With unbroken spirit and restored health, he began the practice of law, and, at the end of a comparatively short time, earned enough money to liquidate his obligation '4ut," said he, "as long as life lasts shall never cease to cherish the name of Rufus Choate, and I would walk from here to Boston barefooted to serve any of his kith or kin."

The members of "THB KING" were struck dumb with amasement. For twenty-four hours they hardly had courage enough to say their souls were their own. tor awnile they refused to believe it to be true, but when they found it rtally wat a fact% they mado an organized effort to get these goods out of our hands by buying them of us. We stopped tnis nice^little game of theirs by refusing to sell more than twenty-five yards at a time to any one customer, which rule has enabled us to place these goods in the hands of our customers, for whom they were intended. The news of this»
