person $iite?lipc . "Surrender of Congress." We have often quoted from tho wril and speeches 0/ Wendell Phillip; order that oar readers might bo fulb formed as to tho advanced views of Radical party. As hete intellectually superior of many leading men of party, so ie he among tho boldest ii daring his opinions on the groat c tions of the day. Mr. PniLLirs roce .delivered a lecture at th?'Brookljri (N Academy-ot Music, and for the grati tion of those desiring to know the tromest intentions of the extremest ticians, we will append his remarks on . political situation at tho present ti The attack on Congress and oxposur the pretensions bf Grant are refrest ?truly, and whilo we hope that neither ' " one nor die other may bo influenced tho animus that impels this assault, cnn grimly enjoy tho castigation of b< ? Ilero is the extract: "It ia useless to talk about tho no< Wo aro American men of brains and ? terprtso; men who when ono thing! turn to another j mon never at fault, r er checkmated, always able to achieve purpose somehow or other. The quest is, now, when we stand in a position si as many a nation has been in before, si wo follow their example, or, nerving c selves for a nobler purpose?rising to lovel of a more intellectual coniprehetis ?shall wo, the educated American p . pie, get above tho smoke ol our prejudi ami deal with this problem suas to timi settle it? One ?ide of the Republic part}1 says no ; tho other side says y The former aro represented by tho Pr< . dent. Yes, tho President loads tho Tm bulls and tho Shermans, and the Foss ? dens, and tho Co:iklings and all tho otl conservative Republicans of to-day. Tin are but two camps ; one holds that tin is no other exit from this difficulty but conferring tho ballot on tho negro, a tho other still repeats tho- cuckoo c? 'This is a white man's government,' I lowing their leader, tho President of t United States, the man who after fj ? years of war sends us a paper datod 1 comber, 1807, which by mistake mi have been taken up from some drawer Buchanan?tho Rip Van Winkle of stat clanship?loft unomptiod. lie, too, tc us that this is ll whito man's govcnimei that the negro is to bo treated with gc erosity, and is to have his interests kind arranged for him; and then with e phatic propriety, with wonderful cons tone}*, it is Andrew Johnson of tho -i ? March, it is the Andrew Johnson wi Bwuhg around tho circle, who adds th we aro bound to be very careful of tl . morals of the negro population. Ai . that is the camp, that is tho flag und which sails.every man who undertakes postpone, by measures ol'conciliation, tl grappling with this question to-day, ac , tho ultimate settlement of it. Congre has now ?pent two years in pursuing tt avowed policy of checkmating tho Pre^ dent, on the ground that he could not I trusted with tho powers ot" a Presiden ' The Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congress! have spent every hour of their live which has not been wasted, in the ?ff? to put on the statute-book laws whit el?nld ta k e^ fro m the President the usu; power? of a President. They have sy " tematically and incessantly been at wor building up a machino which omits tli President, omits him from all power sue " as tho Constitution endows him witl And when we said to thom, 'Instead thu . of perpetually worrying your victim, wh don't you strangle him at once? WI13 instead of liko a cat perpetually plaguin your captivo, don't you cut his head otf : -'"'Oh,' tho}' said in replj*, 'the public won' bear it; we are going to follow the polio; of checkmating the President, and then i won't bo necessary to impeach him.' Bu in pursuing that policy thc}' have forfeits all the support, and stirred up on tho sid of tho President all the sympathy of th* nation. And at length the President, ii tho full face of the nation, dared to tram pie the laws of Congress under his feet and to take tho very man in whoso bohal and for whose protection the Tenure 0 Office bill was passed, Edwin Stanton and put him out of office. And Congresi leaves him ont of office, and I would noi bet eixpenco that ho will over go back tc office. Thoro is no sign at Washington that there is any courage in either house to vindicate its Tenure of office bill.? When the English Parliament met in the days of Charles I., thc very first hour ol its session it took up thc act which thc king had undertaken to violate. It lis ? tened to nothing; it neither adjourned noi askod for a message ; it neither appointed committees nor did any other of tho usual routine of houses of Common, hut its first voice heard in the hall wac. 'Whore is tho law wo passed last session?' And if the Senate had dared, if Andrew Johnson had not cowered them beneath his heels, the first voice heard in November would have been, 'Where is Edwin Stanton and the Tenure of Office bill ?' It the idol general himself had sent a communication to them they would have Hung it back in his face and have said, 'We do not acknowledge you as Secretary of War ; there is but ont Secretary of War, and his name is Stan? ton,' thus trampling under ono foot the respect for General Grant and under the other th'e fear of thc President. Well, then, in regard to another equally desired thing, if Congress had said in 1865 and 1866, when the heart of the nation burned hottest against tho President, and when yr u could have done anything with it. -as ? a party, as the great dominant Republi? can face of the nation, there ia but ono path out of this difficulty, and that is by negro suffrage, from the lakes to the Gull/ one simple party movement would have placed it forever upon our statute-book. But instead of this they sent a ray into the local dirt of Connecticut and another into the poisoned prejudices of Ohio and wero defeated. And this they call states? manship. And this Congress, which has not even the courugo to vindicate its own dignity, after having listened to a mes? sage which might have been written dur? ing the Kansas troubles, hears in it tho knell of its own strength and the glory of the Pmidvtt, aud votes u#t to impeach him. Congress.stands to-day like a school? boy who had forgotten his task. It has nothing to say that will hold water for a moment against the arguments of Andrew Johnson, because ho answers their pre? tences with their actions. "But.that is not the most serious ques? tion by any means. Congress is nothing but a vane on. the meoting-hou.se, and turns whichever way the wind pleases. It is ruled by a dozen men. whose names even nobody knows, who wrigglu their way up to power nobody knows how, and go "down like rockets, no one knows where. It is not that miserable blunderer of the White House upon whose head wo should visit any of the faults of our present sit? uation. * I do not think so meanly of my countrymen as to believe that a mean third-rate corner politician of benighted Tennessee can checkmate the American people. It is not that it is because in the great struggle of lSli-I, which resulted in the present administration, the Republi? can party was willing to fight its own principles; it is because lor the sake of what it esteemed conciliation. God cursed conciliation to the brttomlees pit. Con? ciliation ! To conciliate somebody who cannot be summoned up into any palpa? ble shape has been tho nightmare of the American peopio ever since 1S3?. Tho President doesn't do any harm. The sot who staggers home in tho morning day? light does not do any harm ; he is a warn? ing, not an example ; it is tho senator and the respectable man who sit alongside of him in the grog-shop who do the harm. It is the Fessendens, the Grants and the Stantons who, in the moment when the people were trying to peer into the heart "of Andrew Johnson and find out whether he was a rebel or a loyal man, covered him with the cloak of their own popular? ity, that have done the harm. It is Ulys? ses Grant that makes Andrew Johnson President to-day. And the hardest sight to a man whose heart is in this problem I is the iv'tituuo of the nation before that j successful solcher. I would not tako a ! leaf from his laurels; you may put him higher than Wellington, and, on one scale, superior to the Ctesars and the Bona partes, and I will not complain. It is not a cannoneer, nor a captain, nor a corporal that we want to-day ; but a man who knows this problem* and sees it rightly. To-day we present to the world the mar? vellous spec tacle of a nation that has sent out its first-born to graves and taken its garnered wealth and scattered it to the winds, in order to accomplish a purpose, and now, on the very eve and moment of its accomplishment, ia shutting its eyelids and bandaging its eyes and trusting its future to a man whose only merit is his reticence. We have lived to see ninctj' nino out of a hundred journals praise the reticence of an American citizen. "I can understand reticence at Moscow. The Emperor of the French has a right to bo reticent; there is only one man in that country who has a right to think. But wo live in a country whero every man bears in his hand that ballot which is at the same timo his title and his duty to think. Wo live in a country where thcro are six millions of thoughts, six millions of convictions; and it is in this country that the press, which undertakes to lead it, parades as the chief glory of General Grant, that he does not conde? scend to tell us what he thinks. Here is a man whose great historic words are, 'I will fight it out uii this line if it lasts for? ever;' and here are twenty millions of peopio who are about to trust that man with the helm of power, without claim? ing the right to ask him, ;0n what line do you intend to fight it out?' Yes, a man stands up and tells his fellow-citi? zens, "I do not condescend to say where ! I am going to lead you,' and 3"et we are to elect him President. Wo loved Lin? coln with all his faults, because his lace was towards the light, and what he did not know to day he learned to-morrow, and was always growing wiser th'an he was yesterday. His soul was always open to the influence of Providence and events. We have exchangedfiim for a man incapable alike of forgetting or of learn? ing?a man with his face not ouly turned , towards darkness, but bathed in it. And it is now proposed to complete the trinity by having a man of whom it is stated, as ! a matter of pride, that we don't know which way he looks. Why, when I was ! in tho West last spring, and was arguing this thing, the reply of my audience most? ly was, 'It's no use talking; if we don't lake Grant the Democrats will ' In this moment, when ' ho differences tire as wide as heaven and hell, when half a million graves divide us, wo must take that man to our side, or he will slip away to the other. Why, I say that if there is the ghost of a homoeopathic chance that Grant would not throw a Democratic nomination out of the window, he is not fit for a Republican nominee. 1 dwell upon him to-day because he is the great danger and the great riddle of the hour, and at tho s?mo time, tho Republican par? ty, aghast at tho recent elections, under? takes to hide itself under tho skirts of the soldier, in hope that by flinging over the cargo they will save the hull, and the hull is not worth saving. We stand be? fore the most momentous step this nation bus ever taken. Better far that we should trust the helm to Pendleton and know tho haven to which weaic bound than with a half-way policy go down on our knees disgracing alike tho nation and forfeiting our principles. Btit there is no want of knowledge upon this matter if any man will open his eyes. Thcro is not a man with his eyes open who cannot hoc Gene? ral Grunt's position. I)o yon suppose that a man can stand today amid the American people without all these grout events that have recently transpired searching him through, like chemical acids, bringing out his colors? Grant has spoken." Mr. Phillips then proceeded to review i tho official conduct of General Grant at j the time of the New Orleans massacre, and also his report of the condition of the South. He censured the general for not going to New Orleans and personally protecting tho loyal people of that city. I The very flavor of the smoke of his cigar ' on the levee of New Orleans would have carried peace through all tho Southwest. Mr. Phillips also referred to tho fact that. General Grant in his report said that he had found tho people disposed to bo loyal, whereas Sheridan had declared to tho j Mayor of Boston, on the Boston State ' line, that the ouly loyul men ho had met I ui the South had black ?Irina. Mr. Phil-1 lips concluded as follows : - "I know I am treading on hot ashes when I touch the great soldier. But it is a land of graves, it is a land of orphans, it is a land of widows, and I say tu you you have no right, standing on such a soil and under such a heaven, to risk tho harvest which thai great mid lofty hero? ism gained, by placing heedless confidence I in any man that ever lived. I have rid ! den fifty miles in a railroad car. and thero sat beside mc a half idiot irom Anderson rille j I have lived a fortnight under a roof where it took eighteen months of a mother's fondest, care to win hack intelli? gence into the wreck that Libhy Prison sent her for her eldest born. And with such memories, and such martyrdom, God forbid that any one of us should leave anv.word unspoken, any effort unmade, that could save this heedless nation?save it from trusting tho harvest these young garners earned into hands that arc not ir [ rcvocably pledged to reap it to the utter | most." j Belief for Planters. j Tho following important and gratifying announcement is made by Gen. Scott, of the Frocdman's Bureau. The sad condi? tion of affairs in the lower portion of this Stato renders this action on the part of j tho Government needful, and will prevent starvation and misery. Charleston-, S. C, Jan. 1G, 1868. The Government having again charged j the Assistant Commissioner with the duty of distributing food among tho people of this State, for the double purpose of pre vennting suffering from the destitution, now common in many localities, and to enable tho people to provide against a re? currence of the like destitution in future, I it becomes necessary, in order to accom? plish tho object designed, to adopt such a system of distribution for the supplies thus loaned, as will most effectual!}' both accomplish the objects above named, and insure to the Government the repayment of its means. This end can only be al tained hy a well regulated system of labor ?for from such a system alone can it be expected that any degree of prosperity will follow. It will bo found impossible to distribute food to the needy thousands as individuals but only as communities. The sad experience of the past year should have given a lesson of profit to all. Hundreds of people were the recipients of tho charity of ihe Government, who claimed to be planting at the time they were fed, but who upon investigation, were discovered to be either idling away their time, or engaged in cultivating a small patch, tho whole products of which could not subsist them for more than a month or two; others received aid who were located on barren and worn out lands, upon which, even hy the most so vero labor, Lt was impossible to produce a subsistence ; while yet a third class, with? out any pecuniary means, entered into arrangements whereby they gave one third of their time to the landowner, and during the remainder attempted to dig out a subsistence fur themselves without either animals to assist them or food to Iivo upon. To continue in these foolish attempts to obtain a livelihood will result in the complete prostration of every interest of the country, and to foster such folly by squandering Government rations on such people would be criminal on tho part of the agent charged with their distribution. It is therefore the intention of the As? sistant Commissioner to issue food in the future to the extent allowed by the Gov ernmeift, to those persons only who he is satisfied are so employed that I hey will be able to repay to the Government the amount loaned, as well as to place them? selves beyond tho possibility of want- dur? ing tho following year. To accomplish this object, responsible persons will be up pointed agents of distribution in each lo? cality where destitution exists, who will he held strictly accountable for the relia? bility and industry of the consumers. They will be instructed to take from the .recipients a bond, giving a lien upon the crops to be grown, and other products of industry and personal property. The Assistant Commissioner must be satisfied that each applicant has planted or is about to plant a sufficient number of acres in cereals to insure his provisions for the next year without purchase. To parties engaged wholly or to an undue extent in the cultivation of cotton, no as? sistance will be rendered. Duly appointed officers and agents of this Bureau will be instructed to frequently and carefully in? spect the plantations of those who are the recipients of assistance, and if it shall at any time be found that they are likely lo fail to fulfill their obligations, all necessa? ry measures will bo taken to protect the interests ofthe Government. The Assistant Commissioner desires it to be understood that the amount of as? sistance that he.is authorized to render is limited, and it is therefore necessary that all persons who have private resources at command should avail themselves of such, thc.-e supplies being only intended by the Government to relieve the most extreme cases of destitution. II. K. SCOTT, Brevet Major General, Assistant Commissioner. SllOCKIXC! OCTIIAGE BY NsGROKS IX Darlington District. ? About eleven o'clock Friday night last fivo negroes came to the store of Mr. M. A. Mil Id row, in Darlington District, about nine miles from tho Court House, and rapping up tho clerk, Mr. R. Sugs, asked admit? tance. Mr. Sugs enquired who they j were, and receiving the response that j they were friends come to trade with him, opened the door of the store. Four negroes,armed with double-barrelled shot t(uns. entered, and placing their weapons j in the corner ofthe room, commenced ex ! amining goods, remarking that they were jiu the employ of the railroad, had just boon paid off, and desired to make pur? chases to the extent of ten dollars each. About fifty dollars worth of goods were selected, when one of the number asked Air. Sugs if he could change a Treasury Note ofthe denomination of one hundred dollars. The wife of Mr. Sugs, who was in an adjoining room, heard the remark, ! and her suspicions being excited by it, she went out of tho back door to the house of a gentleman named Wyndham, and rc : quested him to come to tho store, and in I caee any trouble should occur to render Mr. Sugs what assistance ho could. Mr. ( "Wyndham complied, taking a gu:i with j him, and as lie reached tho store heard | tho report of a shot. Ho throw open tho ? door, and was immediately 'ired upon live times by tho negroes. Ko returned tho fire, when they rushed upon him and seized his gun, and a sc tillie ensued, dur? ing which ho managed to effect his es? cape, and repairing to Mr. Muid row'a house, reported tho condition of affairs. As soon tts thc latter could dress and arm himself, he ran to tho store, accompanied by Mr. Wyndham. Them all was quiet, and entering they found tho shelves of thc store completely stripped, the money dosk robbed, and thc clerk, Mr. Sags, ly? ing dead o.i tho floor, a load of buckshot having passed tluoiigh his bead. From this melancholy .scene .Messrs. Muldrow and Wyndham went to tho house of the latter, where they found that Mr. Wynd? ham's lathor-in-law had been dangerously shot in the head, and his wife in three different places on the person by the same party of negroes.?Chas.
