Every nrtiele for tbe Orakorbvro News
mutt be accompanied by the rent nnrae of
the author-not neccssa?Uy for publica
tion, but a guarantee of good faith on tbe
?art of the writer.
The Tones of the 28th ult. used in
its celebrated "War Grumble," tho fol
lowing language :
"If thoro is nny chance (of war)
tec do not see why the South slutuld
grieve."
Upon which tho News of tho 2d
inst. remarked, that it appeared there
from that the Democratic party of the
South entertained toward the United
States this feeling :
"That tho South should find no reason
for grief in the prospect that our gov
ernment may become involved iu foreign
War."
The same "Grumble" contained the
following language :
"If England be the contestant AVK
need NOT be OVER ANXIOUS that key
success in crippling Uncle Sam should
he speedy, provided she do Ed EVEN
tually succeed."
Upon which wc remarked also on the
2d instant that the Southern Democratic
feeling apparent therefrom was,
"That in the case of a war between tin
United States and England, the South
need ONLY be ANXIOUS?not that the
war Ehould not be protracted, bloody aud
Cruel, but?that England should EVEN
tually succeed."
"We gave the Time/ article entire
and then gave our construction of it.
Whether our construction was unwar
ranted we leave willingly to the public.
Wc concluded our remarks ou the
same occasion by saying :
"If this is only Times Democracy let
the other Democratic journals say so 1"
Well, we haven't as yet heard u single
? word from any other Democratic paper
indicating non-concurrence with the
Times.
Bu$ we find in the TO**** ?r
i wc hope that excellent journal will not
consider accuracy of dato as a crime
against good taste, or as impugning its
' briskness in any degree,) this further
language upon the sanio famous "Grum
ble" and our remarks thercaucut: '
"We also say 'let all men who love
thoir country ponder well this language'
of ours. Let them, iu doing so, not mis
take their love of self for love of country
ii ?but remember that the unpatriotic
conduct, the selfish malignant treatment
by the North of the 'South' has des
troyed Southern interest in tho present
dynasty at Washington, D. C, except
such as is aroused by the application of
its power to grind us in the dust. This
is the natural result of the 'cowardly
tyranny.'
This is all that we intended to say.
It i3 all that we hnvo said"
Now wc are very glad to be Informed
'that, after all, tho feeling of the Times
amounts merely to a want of interest iu
tho "present dynasty at Washington, D.
C." and that it entertains no desire
: whatevor for Englands "eventual suc
cess" in caso of war. Tho thrill of
. joy which is sure to pervade every limb
; of our national government upon learn
ing that the Times will be merely neu
tral while old England is pounding
sway at us, is something delightful to
reflect upon. If wc could ouly be satis
. ficd of the equally patriotic conduct of
tho other Democratic papors our cup of
human delights would be full, and wo
couid listen to a nunc dimittis with the
supremest satisfaction.
Wc could then ask of the gods but one
last boon ere quitting this"mortial walo,"
?that our receding vision might behold,
in a not too remoto distance, the Timer,
nnd its brothers joiuiog, with full chorus
and from their honrts of hearts, in the
loyal strain (but apostrophizing Atnorica
instead of Urittannia) of the uo> 1 ;
English poet 5 nd patriot of old,
I ?>Kngbind, with all thy fault?, I lo"c thee

Straw, Republican, bus beon elected
Governor of New Hampshire by a hand
some majority, Last your that State
was Dcmooratio, and in tho Campaign
just closed all tho State patronugc was of
course used for tho Democratic ticket.
But Straw and Gruut were on tho right
sido, ?nd so Straw carried tho day.
Straws show which way the wind
blows.
The 7\'met asks whether the News is
too illiberal to "entertain a move" to
stop some "brutality" of which the first
named journal complains in general
terms. We reply with pleasure that the
News has not countenanced, does not
counteuance and never.will countenance,
brutality in any form whatever, and that
it will never fail properly to support any
proper measure to suppress, prevent or
punish any brutality, oppression or ill
treatment of any human being whatever,
whoilier he or she be white or black, or
of any other color whereof the optics of
men do or do not take cognizance
And now to wind up any loose ends of
argument which may exist after our. dis
cussion with the Times.
The News courteously, calmly and in
language which we thought well calcu
lated (and which we certainly intended)
to develop a frank, fair aud courteous
argument upon mnttcrs touching vital
interests of all classes of our citizens
most nearly, asked why, in certain mo
mentous crises, there was no coalition of
parties here at the South. To this
query tho Times replied in effect that
the Democrats cannot unite with Repub
licans because the latter are, most of
them, thieves, and that the Republicans
will not unito with the Democrats, al
though they have been offered excellent
opp?rt unities to do so. At this point
we endeavored to show that thoro aro
really no livo issues of any sort or cha
aetcr which are distinctively Democrat
ic, that (he Democratic p%r'y had, in
fuct, abandoned all active hostility to tho
genuine principles of Republicanism,
and that the only objection which could
at this day bo either practically or
wisely urged against the Republican
party is the corruption which to a cor
taiu degree docs unfortunately exist iu
its ranks. Aud this last position is, iu
fact, admitted, adopted aud acted upon
by the Democratic press generally else
where through the country.
We then showed that the colored peo
ple, as every one hero must know, wdl
not aud cannot be prevailed upon to, act
with any political party professing prin
ciples antagonistic to those under which
they enjoy, and aro assured iu the
continued cujnjrment of. certain rights
and privileges which they uaturally and
properly prize above everything else.
And then, to give tho Times a fair op
portunity to present the enndid and well
intentioned Democrats of this county in
as kiud and conciliatory a light us possi
ble before that large majority of our
citizens who are of the class nnd color
already indicated, wo asked tho Times
the plain question whether Democrats
arc, indeed, opposed to Republican
principles.
Now it does seom to us that if the
Times, speaking for tho w calthy, land
holding, and in many ways powerful class
it represents, had replied readily to us
"No, we are not opposed to the broad and
truo principles of genuine Republican
ism. Wo aro willing to uuite with you
in guaranteeing and scouring forever to
nil of our oituons thoso simple and nat
ural rights which thoy now enjoy. Rut
wo are and always shall be bittet ly op
posed to corruption and oppression iu
my form or from any quarter what
ever :V?bad the Times so answered us,
we say, wo believe it would have done
wisely aud well for itself, for its friends
uid for all tho best interests of the
eounty. It was not necessary for it to
nlly itself actively with a party \fbose
name must Certainly sti'l awaken many
unpleasant memories to Southern men
of the olden school. It need have
tukeu no step unworthy of bravo men
who fought so long as thcro was ait her
sense or use in tightiug, and it might
with both sense aud uso havo as freely
continued to light against oorruptiou
und wrong whenever or by whomever
committed ; ? and against whiub every
true Rcpulican is as strongly bound, aud
as resolutely determined to raise hi <
hand as any other truo man is or can bo.
Such a reply would have injured none,
would have conciliated many, and would
nave fosterod, instead of discouraging, a
growing feeling (whose indications we had
already remarkod with pleasured of
forbouranee, oontidenco and good-wil4
b twoeu the white aud colored i(izeu-,?
of this county.
Rut tho Times has pursued a very
different course, and one which we sin
cerely regret. For if the Democrats
arc, indeed, opposed, *'to th<; huufU ?.uro"
to those humane aud ultuoat uu.vcrsu.ly
admitted principles of Republicanism
which aro founded in equal rights for all
men, then, indeed, must Republicans stand
well aud faithfully by their guns, and if
the order is "put none but Americans ou
guard to oigbt," tho necessity of the
case will be, in politics us in war, not
only an excuse but a good uud sufficient
reason for putting "ou guard" some who,
in times of peace, would perhaps occupy
"under guard" a moro appropriate
though even less comfortable position.
Such necessities are recognized iu the
bitter world of fact by both generals
uud statesmen. It behooves all men to
avoid such necessities.
lint if, in replyiug to our question,
"To which of the principles of Repub
licanism is Democracy opposed t" tho
Times, when it answers that it objects to
'specious legislation, to corruption, to
uon representation of white men, uud to
burdensome taxation, amounting to rob
bery," intends that the rulo "cxprtssio
uniun exclunio est altcrius, shall apply,
?and that it objects to Republicanism
on those grounds only, then wc have, to
say that, as a fact, not one of thest
crimes is tho legitimate result of any
Republican principle, and that the
Timm, debarred houceibrih by the logi
cal force of its own admission from op
posing the true principles of genuine
Republicanism, must hereafter confine
its attacks to those objective points ol
corruption, bad legislation and other
evils, which are common to all parties ;
and in which attacks the Or.VNOEUUR?
NEWS will always heartily and vigorous
ly join.

Wesley once said, that '"Many a good

There is but little doubt in the minds
of many who have witnessed the remark

the General Assembly, that many a good
harlequin has been spoiled to make a
very poor legislator.

The Kcal Centralization.
It is a statement frequently ma le that
a fearful centralization is going on in
our Government which threatens to
paralyze the States and destroy individ
ual liberty. Like most alarming out
cries, it hccms to us to have but a
semblance of justification. Hamilton
remarked in The Petit ralittt: "The
operations of tho Federal Government
will bo most extensive and important in
tiiiios of war nnd danger; those of the
State governments in times ol peace nnd
security." If bo had foreseen a v ar.
not of the ordinary ohurnctcr, not such
as the Uuion actually encountered be
fore the present generation, but one
waged by States themselves against the
Federal Government, how much stronger
would ho havo made his statement'
Concurring with Madtaou iu the Baying
that the Uniuu was not n monster whose
members coutrollcd its head, he w<. uld
havo vindicated the general cxercis ? of
power by tho Federal Government which
was useumcd during the war of the
Rebellion. That Government, iu n
sudden and chaotic crisis, was called to
savo the life of tho nation. The
tuuchiiiory provided in tho Constitution
for ordinary ex.gCt.oiea was inapplicable
or was thrown out of gcai by the
seLssion^of oloven State?. Tho nation
fol back od its iohcrcnt powers, using
thi forms of law, following precedent,
wl nrovcr it could, but confronting the
pc il at all events; and it succeeded. In
so doing it showed itself strong where
ev q tho most acute and disinterested
cri ice, like De Tocquovillo, had pro
no inccd it weak. Undoubtedly that
wai'a centralizing process; but its results
weifi of two kinds: those which were
temporary or which will recur only with
the return of n similar crisis, nnd those
I which hare entered into the working
character of tlio Government.
What, then, is tho permanent central
litdfion which is supposed to have
originated with the present era ? Ina
word, ? is the increasing predominance
of tKe legislative branch of tho Govern
ment. When the war of the Rebellion
came on it was found, as has been well
said, that Congress was the driving
wheel of the government engine, while
tho will of the people was the motive
power. The Judiciary was powerless,
the Executive could do but little more
than await legislative action. Aud to it
continued throughout the war; and the
lesson that was then learned, which I
England was centuries in acquiring, will
never be forgotten, and the result will
be to make Congress the predominant
force iu cur Government, as Parliament
is in the British Government. We
know there are those who imagine that
the Executive has been gaining on the
other departments, and that the real
centralization is there. No greater mis
take is possible. The President of the
United States is not near so powerful in
our political system as he was even a
dozen or fifteen years ago. Buchanan,
who was much weaker personally than
Grant, carried through the Lccompton
iniquity, which was much more ob
noxious than the San Domingo proji ct,
which Gruut was obliged to drop. Per
haps it will be said that the removal o!
Mr. Sunnier from the Chairmanship of
the Senate Committee of Foreign Rela
tions, is a proof of the power and inter
ference of the Executive with the Leg
islative department ; but the failure of
tho main t?e! muc, of which Mr. Sum- j
mer's removal was but an incidt tit, shows |
that the latter event was chiefly owing
to other and probably personal causes,
existing in the Senate itself. How tho
President fares in a direct issue with
Congress, even where he is strongest, us
iu the control of patronage, in iy be s ? u
in tha Tenure of office law, with which
President Johnson was lassoed Lti
whicheser direction wo turn, in fact, w.i
see this same process of legislative
ascendency going on. Does the Supreme
Court render a decision adverse to the
action and views of Congress '! The
Court can be reconstituted aud enlarged j
by Congress, till the decisiou is reversed !
We do not say that such was the history ;
developed by the reci nt legal-tender
decisions; but wo do say that the
example shows what can be done in
such exigencies, and the mere fact of
abilify often answers every purpose of
its exertion. In Mr. Fisher's thought
ful work on "The Trial of the Constitu
tion," great stress is laid upon the prac
tical inefficiency of the Fifth Article ?
that providing for amendments?of the
Constitution. Since tho hook was writ '
ten the author has doubtless had oc
casion to see in this very weakest part
of the Government, as he had considered
it. one of the strongest proofs of tho
controlling power of Congress, which
consummated the three last constitution
al amendments und recast the Govern
ment, by requiriii' the rebellious States
to ratify the amendments us among the
conditions of restoration to the Union
In short, Congress is the section ol tho
Government which is clothed with prac
tical ability,?which does things,?and
consequently it draws to it>eil the forces
of sovereignty and must go on increasing
while the other branches ttre dorr.jag
In pursuing this investigation it might
be shorn, we think, that not only is
Congress gaining on tho co ordinate
branches ol tho Government, but the
House ol Representatives is gaining on
the Senate; but il is not necessary to bo
thus minute. It is more to the p nut to
glance at the necessity and the safety <d*
this general process. Without its inaug
uration it is perfectly clear that the
nation could not have been rescued from
its recent peril. Tho Government, us
previously operated, was like an old fash
ioned man of-war, pow< rful on its broad
sides, but exposed to raking tires and t'
boarding, especially if disabled at the
helm; while now it resembles u turieted
iron.clad, with its guns under ready con
trid aud oqually effective in any dircc
tiou. This adaptability gives an impres
sion of greater accession of power than
bus actually buppcuud, and we think it
will be found oil examination that the
States and the other brauohos of the
Federal ovcruinciit have not ooon di
vestcd of any attributes rcuH essential
to the welfare of the people and that
Congress has assumed none that are
dangerous. It has certainly attempted
uu such pretensions as the Supreme
I Court Judges quietly put forth iu the
Drod Scott dcc.sioti. unieh affirmed that
' this Government had i.een admiuisterod
00 Wrong principle! lor seventy .o.rs
and that no barriers could be creeled
Against the national spread of slavery.
There were do outcries then about cen
tralization! Aud yut tint decrco was
made without any impulse ' from the
people. ?.y men who held life offices, und
it was claimed to he irreversible in its
nature. Congress, ou the other hund^
comes directly from the people and "ocs
back to them again at short intervals,
and is nov?r free fiom the popular pres
sure. If any branch of the Govern
ment, therefore, can be safely intrusted
with increased power, it^ the legislative.
Further securities against abuse arc
found iu the vast and increasing extent
of our country, which will render any
deleterious kind of centralization, like
that of the French political system, ut
terly out of tho question; and also in
the character of our people, whoso im
pulses, training, and experience make
them more and more the haters ol every
thing in the nature of absolutism. Hut
t hey do see that a government, like nil
other instrumental*!tos, to be worth any
thing must be efficient, ami th y are ta
king care that ours shall be.? Every
