Horace Greeley's Speech.
We gave the readers of the
GAZETTE,
a few days ago, the telegraphic abstract of Mr. Greeley's recent speech in the city of New York. Having now received the speech in full, we here lay before our readers the material parts of it. In speaking of the individuals known as the "carpet-baggers," Mr. Greeley pays them the following compliment: "There is another influence equally injurious with theirs, and a great deal more detrimental to the fame and character ol the Republican party. I allude to what are known as the "thieving carpet-bag-gers." [Applause.] Fellow-citizens, do not mistake me. All the Northern men in the South are not thieves. The larger part of them are honest and good men some of whom stay there at the peril of their lives, because they believe it to be their duty. Next to the noble and true women, who have gone down South to teach black children how to read—nobler there are not on the earth than these, whom a stupid, malignant, dilapidated aristocracy often sees fit to crowd into negro hovels to live, not allowing them to enter any white society becanse they are teaching negro children—next to these, who rank as the noblest women in the South, are the honest and worthy Northern men, who, in the lace of social proscription and general obLiquy and scorn, stand firmly by the Republican cause.
The public is often heedlessly unjust. Let a Government have ten thousand official subordinates in power, of whom nine thousand nine hundred are honest and true men who do their duty faithfully, while hardly one hundred are robbers and swindlers, the public will hear a good deal more about the one hundred robbers than about the nine thousand nine hundred true men. The one hundred stand out in tbe public eye—they are always doing something which exposes them to the scornful gaze of the multitude —while the honest and true men pass along silent and unobserved, and nothing is said, very little i3 thought of them. All attention is concentrated upon the one hundred, who are defaulting and stealing, and forging, and running away.
Well, gentlemen, the thieving carpetbaggers area mournful fact they do exist there, and I have seen them. [Laughter.] They.are fellows who crawled down South in the track of onr armies, generally at a very safe distance in the rear some of them on sutlers' wagons, some bearing cotton permits some of them looking sharply to see what may turn up and they remain there. They at once ingratiate themselves with the blacks, simple, credulous, ignorant men, verjr glad to welcome and to follow any whites who professed to be the champions of their rights. Some of these got elected Senators, others Representatives, some Sheriffs, some Judges, and soon. And there they stand, right in the public eye, stealing aud plundering, many of them with both arms around negroes, and their hands in their rear pockets, seeing if they can not pick a paltry dollar out of them and the public looks at them, does not regard the honest Northern men, but calls overy "carpet-bagger" a thief, which is not the truth by a good deal. But these follows—many of them long-faed, and with eyes rolled up, are greatly concerned for the education of the blacks, and for the salvation of their souls. [Great laughter.] "Lot us pray," they say. But they spell pray with an "e," and thus spelled, they obey the Apostolic injunction to "pray without ceasing."
Fellow-citizens, the time has been and still is, when it was perilous to ue known as a Republican or an Abolitionist in tho South, but it never called the blush of shame to any man's cheek to be so called, until these "thieving carpet-baggers went there—never? [Applause.] They got into tho Legislature they went to issuing State bonds they pretended to use them in aid of railroads and qther improvements. But the improvements were not made, and the bonds stuck in the issuers' pockets. [Laughter.] That is tho pity of it. "Well," some say, "you havejust such thieves at the North." Yes, we do—too many of them. [Applause.] But the South was already impoverished—bankrupt—without thrift, almost without food and these fellows went there robbbingand swindling when there was very little to steal, and taking the last ten cent shinplastar off of the dead men's eyes: They were recognized the late aristocracy not merely as thieves, but as enemies. Says Byron's Creek minstrel "A
tyrant—but our masters then Were still at least our countrymen." Thus we record the men who annually rob us at Albany and Trenton and at Harrisburg. Thoy do not carry their plunder out of the States when they get any. These fellows do. The South was not merely beaten in the late contest, she was profoundly astonished by the result. Her people have not fairly got over their amazement at their defeat and what they see of us are these thieves, who represent the North to their jaundiced vision, and representing it they disgrace it. They are the greatest obstacle to- the triumph and permanent ascendency of Republican principles at theSouth, and as such I denounce them. [Applause.] "Well, then, do yon justify the Ku Klux ?"I am asked. Justify them in what If they should choose to catch a hundred or two of thieves, place them tenderly across rails and bear them
quietly and peacefully across the Ohio, I should of course condemn the act, as I condemn all violence, but the tears live in a very small onion that would water all my sorrow for them."
This is pretty strong language, and coming as it does from the able editor of the New York Tribune, certainly will have some influence, even on the befogged radical mind. For months and mouths the readers of the GAZETTE well know that we have repeatedly told them, that the great cause of the continued animosities in theSouth is owing to those "thieving carpet-baggers" who who go down from the North to spy out the land of the South, and make their fortunes off of that people. Horace Greeley, just returned from a tour through the Southern States, confirms all we have ever said, anymore. There is "much human nature in a man," and we are impressed with the belief that if a lot of hungry office seekers, with carpet-bags in hand, were to flood this country, and in collusion with the men of color, were to take possession of all the offices, make all the laws for our Government, and burden us with heavy taxes, we would complain, and if persisted in, some of us might, by possibility, turn Ku Kluxs In speaking of the forward movement, Mr. Greeley says:
Fellow-citizens, I am weary, weary of this sterile strife -concerning the fundamental principles of Republican institutions. I am tired of trying to teach the tb* A* *•c»°' Democracy. I
rejoice to know that they have taken a New Departure, and I tell you that when they have once taken it, it will be a great deal harder to get back to the old ground than to goon. Someone says, "Isn't it going to put the Republicans out of power?" I can not tell. Immediately, I think not. Mr. Burks well says: "Confidence is a plant of slow growth," and I think it will take some time for the people to realize that they mean this—some time for their own folks, to realize it—a great deal longer to make any black men believe that they mean it.
I don't anticipate any sudden change in the relative strength of parties because of the New Departure. Ultimately, I think it will strengthen the Democrats. "Then," one says, "you will go out of power." Yes, we shall some time, no doubt. It-it be my fate to go out this moment, and every year of my life thereafter to be in the minority, powerless and defeated, I should thank God, most humbly and heartily, that He allowed me to live in an age, and to be a part of the generation that witnessed the downfall and destruction of American Slavery. [Prolonged applause.]
Fellow-citizens, 1 trust the day is not distant wherein, putting behind us the things that concen the past, we shall remember that grand old injunction ot the Biblo "Speak to the children of Israel that they go forward." I am weary of fighting over issues that ought to be dead —that logically were dead years ago. When slavery died, I thought that we ought speedily to have ended all that grew out of it by universal amnesty and impartial suffrage. [Applause.] I think so still, and if the Democratic party concede impartial suffrage, the Republican party will concede universal amnesty if not, it will have but a very short lease of power. So, then, friends, I summon you all, Republicans and Democrats, to prepare for new issues and new struggles that visibly open befoieus. In the times not far distant, we shall consider questions mainly of industrial policy—questions of national advancement—questions involving the best means whereby our different parties may, through co~-operation, or through rivalry, endeavor to promote the prosperity, the happiness and tho true glory of the American people. To that contest I invite you. For that contest I would prepare you. And so trusting that the blood shed in the past will be a sufficient atonement for tho sins of tho past and that we are entering upon a new departure, not for one party, but for the whole country—a departnre from strife to harmony, from destruction to construction, from desolation to peace and plenty, I bid you, friends and fellow-citizens, an affectionate good night. [Prolonged cheers and applause.]
The Democrats concede "impartial suffrage," but the leaders of the Republican party have defeated "universal amnesty." They still cling to the dead past, and have declared that we must consider over again "the issues growing out of the war," in the coming contest. Horace Greeley is "weary" of this, and in faver of "putting behind us the things that concern the past," and going forward to the discussion of the issues of the present hour. How the fossilized radicals who now hold important and paying positions under the present Administration will like the advance movement on the part of the great editor of the New York Tribune, remains to be seen. We suppose he will, however, be read out of the Grant party, and turned over to the men who have adopted the grand old injunction of the Bible: "ASpeak to the children of Israel that they go forward."
In referring to his being spoken of as a candidate for the Presidency, and to his having been elected to important offices before, Mr. Greely remarked
Now, fellow-citizens, I am not at all grateful to the Republican party tor these several nominations. I accepted them, as I accepted anj' ether public duty that seems to be fairly incumbent upon me and I did what I could to secure the success of the ticket on which my name was printod. I am very grateful to those generous and gallant Republicans who, in the face of certain defeat, rallied around me and gave me a bountiful support, running my name in each case a little ahead of the average ot my ticket. For that support I am grateful for the several nominations not at all. Well, gentlemen, the past is past. "Let the dead bury their dead." I am perfectly willing to pass receipts with the Republican party, and say that our accounts are now settler) and closed. They owe me nothing tor 1 ein a Republican I could not have helped being one if I had tried, and being a Republican, it was in my nature to do all I could for the success of that party which embodied and enforced my personal convictions. I was just as grateful to you as you were to me, I was. just as much gratified by your co-operation as you were by mine, and there the matter ends. But for the future, I can say, gentlemen, fully and heartily, that I need no office, I desire no office, and, though I never shall decline any nomination that has not been offered me", [laughter,] I certainly shall seek no office whatever. I am with you and of you willing to do my part, willing to bear my share of our responsibilities but 1 havo work enough, reasonable pay lor it, sufficient consideration, with too much notoriety and the more quiet and peaceful my remaining days may be, the better I shall be satisfied.
This looks a little like Horace was th inking of taking a new departure. At any rate he has made up his mind to go where the right leads him, and not be governed by the corrupt demagogues who now control what is left of the old Republican party.
EVIL,
results from the ruthless punish
ment of the Communists of Paris have always been looked for, and they are now promised in definite, and what may be called official, form. The "International Society," which is the central organization of European socialists, has issued a manifesto calling on its members to "avenge their slaughtered brethren." This call seems to promise an era of assassination, and there is promised for M. Thiers the bloody fate of Prim. Of course such a crime is not impossible, but it is probable that the fears in regard to it are exaggerated. The French people are the most savage of the savage when acting in masses. The fury of a French mob is more bloodthirsty aud indiscriminate than the fury of any other mob, but the individual Frenchman is not generally such stuff as assassins are made of. During the long reign of the second Emperor when he walked and rode and slept surrounded by triple guards of disguised policemen, most of the objects of their suspicion were foreigners, and not Frenchmen.
THE Baltimore Gazette is authority for the statement that Chief Justice Chase cordially approves the platforms recently adopted by the Democrats of Ohio, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina, except the financial resolution of the Ohioans. He promises to vote for Gov. McCook, if in Ohio when the fall election takes place.
THE editor of the Rockville Patriot is advised to give his attention to "Elements of Law" instead of thrusting his uninvited nose into the affairs of his newspaper neighbors.—T.IT. Journal.
We are under obligations to you Mr Journal, for your "uninvited advice" But if the Gazette advocates the same principles that you profess to cherish, will you "rise to explain" your opposition to the Gazette upon any other hypothesis than that we have indicated? -rRochville Patriot, /•-.?
THE Springfield (Mass.,) Republican, a Radical steet, tells the following on the philosopher Greeley "Some one said to him once, 'How is it, Greeley, that while you are honesty itself, your especial friends seem to be tbe greatest political thieves and rascals,office seekers, and legistative robbers in the community
4W-a-1,'
drawled out the
philosopher slowly, 'I don't know, myself, but it does look a good deal so, that is true.' ^HUNDREDS of people can talk, forgone who can think, but thousands can think, for one who can see. See clearly, is poetry, prophesy, religion, all in one.— Ruskin.

THE QUESTION DISCUSSED.
p-
The following conversation recently took place between parties living in this city, and toeing reported to us, we give it as nearly as possible word for word.
Mrs. B. to Mrs. R.—I saw you with a new dress on the other day as you were passing my house. How much did you pay for it? Mrs. R.—Fifty-five cents a yard.
Mrs. B.—Why, they asked me 75 cents a yard for it! Mrs. R.—Perhaps you saw it at some other place than where I got mine.
Mrs. B.—Why, where did j-ou get yours?
Mrs. R.—I bought it at the NEW YORK CITY STORE. Mrs. B.—Do you then trade at Foster Brother's I wouldn't buy a cent's worth there.
Mrs. R.—Pray, why not? I always buy where I can buy the cheapest, and I am sure there is no pleasanter place in town to trade than Foster Brothers. They are polite and agreeable, and take a great deal of trouble to suit their customers, and are never impudent to you, as they are at some other stores in town, if you don't happen to get suited.
Mrs. B.—But I have been told that they didn't sell as cheap as they advertised to do, and that if I went there to trade I wouldn't get goods as cheap as they promised to sell them.
Mm. R.—Why, they constantly ask you in their advertisements to cut them out aim bring them with you that may see for yourself whether the}' do or not sell as they advertise. Some of the other dry goods merchants have been stuffing you. They all hate the New York City Store because it has put down prices. I have been surprised to hear certain dry goods merchants in town, who claim to be gentlemen, talking in the most false and slanderous manner of the firm of Foster Brothers.
Mrs. B.—I have sometimes thought myself that what they said was hurting them and helping Foster Brothers, for I am tola that the latter are now doing a larger business than ever. How long have you been trading with them, and have you always found them reliable and their goods as represented?
Mrs. R.—I have t.aded with them ever since they opened, and have always been well satisfied. Once, however, I got a linen lawn that they warranted would wash. After I got it partially made—the breadths all gored—I thought I would cut off a small piece and try it. I was disappointed in finding that it faded quite badly. I was, I must adm'it, a little put out about it, for I knew that as it was cut out they would not exchange it, for I had already had a case of this kind with another store in town that had sold me a dress that was warranted to wash, but which faded, and when I went back with it, they not only wouldn't allow me any
himself, and I commenced at him in a manner neither "child-like" nor "bland." He asked me in a very quiet manner to explain the matter to him, adding, "There is nothing we dislike more than to make mistakes, but there is nothing that gives us more pleasure than correcting them." I explained the matter to him, when he said: "As our clerk warranted it to wash, we are, of course, in honor bound to make up your loss to you, whatever that may be. We would exchange it, only it is cut into so many pieces." You may judge I was surprised when he offered to return me half my moneg. I suppose I ought to have been satisfied with that, but really the dress was of no value to me, and I told him so. "Then," said he, "we will take the goods back just as they are and return you ALL your money."
Mrs. B.—You certainly were treated well, but do you think they still do things in that way? As your dress was lawn, you probably bought it when they first started. Perhaps they do different now.
Mrs. R.—I have every reason to think this is one of the settled principles upon which they do business. You must have certainly seen that they constantly advertise to return the money for all goods bought at their store that are not in every way satisfactory to tlie buyer. No other store in town will do that.
Mrs. B.—Now you speak of it, I do remember that they have been so advertising. But I have one objection to these gentlemen, of which I have not yet spoken, and that is that they are so personal in their advertisements.
Mrs. R.—Yes I heard Mrs. T. talking in that same way the other day, and I havn't a bit of patience with either of you. You go and listen for half an hour to the low, personal abuse heaped upon these men by some of their competitors, and then you profess to be shocked and are virtuously indignant because this firm have simply dared to say what they have repeatedly offered to prove—that for years our dry goods stores have been charging unreasonably high profits. No one knows what they state to be a fact better than you do, for you and Mrs. T., and Mrs. H., and several others that I know, used to go to Indianapolis and Chicago for most all your dry goods previous to Foster Brothers bringing down the prices, and yet you stand by and see a combination entered into to drive them away from town, and you hear falsehoods told in regard to them weeks before they opened, and then after their opening you see everything thrown in their way whereby their business may be obstructed—you see their small cash boys beaten in the streets—their goods piled at the door cut with knives—members of the firm assaulted in the streetsefforts made to entice away their help—and yet for all these you have not one single word of condemnation. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. For my part I glory in the pluck of these young men who do not propose to have any body ride rough-shod over them.
Mrs. B.—Really, Mrs. R., you are getting quite eloquent. I didn't know I should bring down upon my head so sharp a lecture, or I should have kept quiet. However, I am not sure but that there is some truth in what you say, and I promise at least to think the matter over. Perhaps I may conclude to try this firm myself, for, to tell you the truth, my friends are many of them telling me I am foolish to pay the old 'stores 20 or 30 per cent, more for goods than Foster Brothers are charging.
Mrs. R.—And I quite agree with them. Now to-morrow I am going around to the New YorK City Store to get some muslin, and if you will call around and go with me unci GXarninG rtAA/ki Oiul incno^f. fheir nripoa nnrl cpa wlfli vvhnt. n«tience and very much
We submit the above without comment. Evidently Mrs. R. is quite able to take care of herself. We are certainly under great obligations to her for the good words she has spoken in our behalf. F. B.
