GRANT AD THE GERMANS.

Telling Spcecli of Senator Carl Schurz at Nashville.

Wliy ho Oppose* C« rant's Renominntlon— He will not Aid nlisnrper-An Appeal to flic iool M-n l»e South—TlioJVew icparture—'l'lie Great Katlonal I'arJy.

A brief summary of the speech of Sen ator Carl Schurz, delivered at Nashville on Wednesday, in the presence of an immense crowd, representing all parties and all sections of Tennessee, was given in the telegraphic despatches which appeared in the GAZETTE some days ago. Full reports of the speech show that it was one of the most bold, timely and effective efforts that this distinguished orator and statesman has yet made. After a review of the present condition of public allairs, and an earnest argument in favor of general amnesty, the Senator gave his reasons for OPPOSING THE DENOMINATION OF GRANT, as follows:

When I, the other day, in a public speech at Chicago, declared that I would not support President Grant for re-elec-tion on account of the flagrant violation of the Constitution lie has committed in the San Domingo case, a great many of my Republican bretlire.il were shocked beyond measure, and raised a cry of high treason against the party, while some of the feeble in mind exclaimed that my making such a declaration was a sure sign that I must.havo been disappointed in the matter of patronage. I mny assure them that I spoke with cool and mature deliberation, for it will not do to trifle with such cases. I will not here argue the San Dominuo i!ter over again, but I will say simply this: When a President orders the navy of the United States to a foreign country, and without condescending to ask Con»iess for authority, instructing our naval officers to protect and defend the chief of a ioreign government against any foreign enemy, and even against his own subjects and countrymen and when he does this not. only while negotiations are going on with that foreign government, which negotiations, However, would not confer upon thePresident the autocratic power to resort to measures of war at his own pleasure but even after the results of such negotiations in the shape of a treaty have been formally and solemnly rejected by the Senate, and we ifiiii^l^l"ipeace—w1ien a President does tliat, then he arrogates to himself oue of the most important powers belonging to 1.1m representatives of the people he violates the Constitution in all of its most vital points, and he constitutes himself the arbiter of peace and war for this great

Republic. And when I am asked to endorse such an act. by, supporting that President f.ir re-election, and thus to aid in sanctioning by a popular vote such an act as a-precedent—a precedent, which, if taken as a rule of constitutional const, uction would authorize the President alone to initiate a war under almost any circumstances, and make this llepublic virtually a monarchy as to the question of peace and war—then I, as a faithful citizen of this llepublic, who lias sworn to support its Constitution, say, "I will not do it." I will not help to re-elect an officer whose re-election, sanctioning, his previous aots with popular approval, will be a justification and encouragement to all future Presidents in committing acts of usurpation still further reaching. I will not help iu paving the way to the advent of irresponsible personal government in this Republic and when I am told that by such opposition other grave interests may be jeoparded, I answer that I am very doubtful whether the wanton levity With which our Presidents are to be permitted to play with the peace and honor of the people, and the general decay of constitutional notions, do not constitute, in their inevitable cousequonces, as great a danger, and perhaps even greater than any now within sight. And when I am tauntingly reminded by pliable partisans that the people do not care much about these constitutional questions, I answer that if there are many who do not care" about the integrity of their republican institutions, this constitutes only a stronger reason why those who do care should make themselves heard, and act with determination. I am frequenty reminded that declarations like those I have just made are apt to prove ruinous to a public man. Be it so. I take the risk, for I am in earnest, aud I am sure the day will come when many of those who now shrug their shoulders at my protests and predictions will, to their sorrow, admit that I was right, unless this tendency be,speedily arrested.

TIIE FOURTEENTH ANT) FIFTEENTH AMENDMENTS. Senator Schurz then proceeded to consider the assertion frequently made on the Democratic side, that a fatal blow at local self-government was struck by the Fourteentli and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, and argued that, their object

Avas simply to secure to every

citizen those civil rights which made him a freeman, and the suffrage which enables him to participate in the functions of self-government while the only dangers that threatened our free institutions 'were to be found in the unscrupulousness of those iu power, the cowardice and venality of politicians, aud in the careless levity of the masses, who are too indifferent to the value of what they possess to exercise that -vigilance which is the price of liberty.

The Senator continued: No, the Constitution as it is to-day contains more guarantees and safeguards of human freedom and rights than any Constitution ever devised by human wisdom. If, under it, the American people lose a particle of their liberties, they will have tnemselves to blame.

Many of you will point to the Ku Klux law as a dangerous stretch of the powers of the Central Government, and as the offspring of the new Constitutional •"amomimttiits. I myself call that law a stretch of the central power, -r^ln agalnstit as such votedjigaiustit

in the Senate, I am now free to say that I do not consider it the offspring of the new Constitutional amendments, for I believe a similar law would have been passed under the same circumstances and a sufficient pretext of power would have been screwed outof the

Constitution,

even without those amendments. This being a matter of special interest to the Senate, I will explain myself more fully. Let me tell you—and I wish you to consider it well—that the mere cry for constitutional government is not sufficient to arrest the tendency you see embodied in the Ku Klux act. That law was enacted to stop the acts of violence and persecution inflicted by a certain class of the Southern population upon Republicans and colored people, and in order to bring the perpetrators of those acts to the punishment they deserve. That in many localities such acts have been perpetrated, not perhaps to so fearful an extent as is asserted by interested parties, but still in considerable number, no well informed person will deny, and I may say that I have Southern and Democratic testimony to prove it that those acts almost uniformly passed without adequate punishment is equally certain that they deserve punishment 110 just man can doubt. The circumstances adduced in extenuation of those crimes I will hereafter discuss they do not affect the facts nor their criminal character.

Now that the Ku Klux law, with its characteristic features so obnoxious to our constitutional system, was not justified by those acts I have already stated as my deliberate opinion on the floor of the Senate as well as here, and on every appropriate occacion, I opposed it, not because I did not recognize the evil, but because I considered the remedy, in its consequences more dangerous than the evil. But I express also my deliberate conviction when I predict that all the efforts in the way of argument which the defenders of the constitutional gov ernment may put forth will not suffice to prevent the re-enactment of the Ku Klux law, or even eventually the passage of measures still further reaching, if those acts of lawlessness and bloody violence continue.

AN APPEAL TO THE GOOD MEN OF TIIE SOUTH. Senator Schurz then urged upon his hearers the importance of combined ac tion by the good and honest men of the South to suppress lawless excesses of every kind, and to extinguish the spiri which produce them to make law aud justice prevail, to put down corruption and to give their States economical honest, and good government. lie ap pealed to his hearers to take an active part in helping forward movements of reform which would benefit the South and North alike, saying:

Why should you sit aud fold your arms while a movement is set on foot to re form the civil service of the Govern ment? Has not the South suflered as much and more under existing abuse than the rest of the country and are not not your interests, therefore, intimatel.v connected with the interests of all menr You especially should insist upon th demanded reform. Look at it. Tlu: patronage of that system of selfish an arbitrary favoritism has made the pub lie offices the mere spoils of the victori ous party. The officers of the Govern ment have become a political army commanded by one and his satelites. It rests with the President to use his power to appoint, to remove, as a machinery of corruption and intimidation. Ou great political contests have descended from the high level of contests of great, principles anil policies and become to vast extent mere scrambles for spoils and plunder, appealing to, the meanest instincts of humau nature instead of ih noblest, and these mean instincts have gained a terrible influence in our poJiti eal life. They are feeding and developing that reckless party spirit which is so .j -?u/vmilages above the best interests of the people. The standard of political moralty stands dis tressingly low the feeliug.s of official honor and responsibility have bccomo fearfully blunted the performance lick-spittling sycophancy before the dis pensers of favor is growing more unre publican and disgusting every day. The lenity with which dishonorable practices are judged* by public opinion is alarming to behold, and the far-reachin evils wrought by this demoralizatioi will only increase as the Goverumen becomes more powerful, and the inter ests expand with which it has to deal No thinking man can witness this spec tacle without feeling that a thoroug' reform is demanded, not only by the in terests of the service itself, but by the dignity of Rebublican government and the safety of Republican institutions but to you of the South it seems to me par tic'ularly important. You complain that you have in these States a large number of uneducated and inexperienced voters easily led by designing men for mean selfish purposes. How necessary is then, especially here, that that class of mercenary motives which is fed by th patronage and the demoralization con nected with it should be as much as pos sible removed from your political life. You say that the affairs of your States have to be painfully extricated from the slough of disaster and confusion, and that the problems of the extraordinary difficulty confrout you. How desirable is it then, especially for you, that politi eal life should be raised to a higher moral standard that loftier feelings of honor should be made to prevail that the unprincipled mercenary be discouraged in his designs, aud the purest and best elements of the people be again at tracted to the political field.

THE TROUBLE WITH THE NEW DEPART URE. Iu relation to the New Departure of the Democracy the Senator said:

The Democratic party in some of the Northern States, appreciating the utter impossibility of success with a profession of faith like its last national platform, has resolved to take anew departure, by recognizing the constitutional amendments embodying the results of the war. If you want proof of the fact that the new departure has not strengthened the Democratic party, look at the result of recent elections aud I have no doubt that the elections which are to come off this fall will only add to the number of Democratic defeats. These things are not the result of accidental circumstances, as some party papers try to make out. Tiie defeats come not because the Republican party ha-5 grown morally weaker. It is lelt to be essentially a party of the past. Many Republicans are dissatisfied with their organization, but they feel it would be like jumping into yesterday, and a yesterday which they did not like. Thus these defeats are not accidents, but symptoms of a decomposition. The new departure, however wise in principle, could not secure the sincere assent of the whole party, because it could not at once unteach what had been taught for so many years, and, however honestly intended by those who started it, it could not commaud any confidence outside of the party, because, in order to secure support inside, it had to present the movement itself as a mere manoeuvre for obtaining power.

Feeling that it had lost its footing in the actual state of things, the Democratic party has tried the new departure as a sort of flying machine, but its traditions aud former professions aud performances cling to it as a dead weight, and the tail is too heary for the kite. Neither will the fairest promises in the Democratic platform, whatever their value may be in other respects, avail much to secure success. Party platforms are like promises to pay—notes of hand. It requires credit to have them discount! ed, and the Democratic party has lost

that kiud of credit which would make its mere promises in word a current paper in the market. Aud however good the names ^of those who may endorse, they will only endanger their own credit as the endorsers of a distrusted firm. I say these things' without any prejudice (sine Ira ct s'udio), simply because they are true. The proof of their truth you can read in the current events. But more than that, whatever that party may do will appear, however justly or njustly, as an open or covert attempt to bring on the possibility of a reaction. Most people outside of it would regard it so and what is worse, a large number of its members, especially in the South, would look at it decidedly in that lisrht.

It is so with the new departure, and it would be still worse without it. Its success would, therefore, in spite of its-pro-fession, be encouragement to reactionary desires. For this reason I should con sider a Democratic victory a great misfortune, especially for the South. To the North it would he far less threatening in its consequences than to you. I do cer tainly not think that the overthrow of the results of the war would be accomplished, for a seribus attempt would at once call powers into action which would speedily overwhelm it. It would be utterly hopeless and in vain, but the disturbance and confusion caused by the new

Utempt would be misfortune enough, and the weight of that misfortune would fall directly and almost entirely on the South.

The Senator then proceeded to draw the following picture of THE NATIONAL PARTY OF TIIE FUTURE as he would have it:

The truly national pa'rty of the future, of a composition and with a policy such as I have described—can it be formed? It will not be difficult, as soon as the attitude of the old parties will have demon strated its necessity. I apprehend it ap pears already desirable to a large number of thinking men in this country. It may be here all of a sudden, and unless I am greatly mistaken the tendency breaking the skin of the body politics in all directions. As to myself, I have only in view the accomplishment of certain ends of public policy. -I want this to be a country of true, free men. I want to see the equal rights of all efficiently pro tected iu every part of this Republic. want to^see the Constitution of the coun tryasitis conscientiously enforced aud observed by the Government as well as the citizens. I want peace to prevail and fraternal feeling to uniteagain tbehearts of all Americans. I want the morality of our political life raised to higher standard. I want a just distribution of our public burdens and an honest and economical administration of our affairs. By the instrumentality of what party these §nds be secured is to me utterly indifferent provided they are accomplished. If considered it most likely that the Demo cratic party would, do it, I should join that party, and the cry of lenegade would have 110 terrors for me. But Id not think so. If the Republican party meets the case, I shall be very glad, for it would be turning a strong organiz tion already to good account. But if a new party does it better, my views of public interest and duty will not. pernii me to be long in choosing these—and the duties are so great that the preju dices and selfish speculations 01 par spirit should kick the beam when put in the other scale and I am coniiden there are millions of patriotic citizens both sections of the country who cherish the same sentiments, and will be ready to act accordingly as soon as action called for.

Shall I tell you what my ldeai would have beeu of thedeveiopment which ou atiairs should nave taken in a period like this? A wiping out ofali past dillerences and animosities, and a complete fusion of -ali political elements as formerly di vided so general a desire for national harmony and good feeling, so command

CONCLUSION.

Senator Schurz concluded his eloquent speeeli in the following words: My friends, I shall now take leave of you. Some opinions I have expressed may have run against those which many of you entertained, but they come from a miud earnestly seeking for the truth, and from a heart full of the anxious desire to see healed the wounds struck by past conflicts, and the whole American people once more united in the proud consciousness Of a common nationality. I entreat you to give what I have said a candid consideration. The whole measure of my ambition will be filled if I succeed in doing something to remove the questions so deeply involving the peace and future happiness of the American people from the feverish at mospliere of partisan passion and selfishness, aud so bring in that condition of things which will dissolve stubborn prejudices and melt away old resentment, aud open our minds and hearts wide to a just understanding of our duties and a new era of good feeling.

~WEi HLiVB BONE IT!

Within forty-eiglit hours after we opened our batteries upon them, their lines began to waver within a week or ten days their auctions were a COMPLETE and LAUGHABLE FAILURE, and the Nondescripts could be seen jumping around upon their counters, yelling away at the top of their Toices and knocking down goods to empty store stools in the vain attempt to entice into their store the crowds of people hastening to our great sale. Finding all their attempts at getting up a sale useless, they next endeavored to sell their old stock at auction to the other dry goods merchants. But even in this they lamentably failed, as the other merchants dared not buy their stock thus openly, for fear it would injure their trade. Then they commenced to sell their goods to the other dry goods merchants SECItETLY. We found it out, and, true to the interests of the masses of the people, we told them of it. That stopped THAT business. Now these chaps, whose auction sale we closed up, appear in print with a poorly got up story, that no body believes, to the effect that they have bought the old stock and added new goods to it and propose to retail it out.
