That we denounce the efforts of the Radical party to retain the power it has usurped by estab? lishing negro supremacy in the South by military force, coupled with the disfranchisement of tho mass of the white population, as an outrage upon democratic principles, and an attempt to under? mine and destroy the republic, and that, we stig? matise the refusal of that party in this State to submit the question ot' negro suffrage to the peo? ple, as a cowardly evasion of a paramo u ut issue in the pending struggle.

Then they protended to embalm his remains, and did s0 siter a fashion, the doctor who had the job making quite a sp?cula? tion by cutting off and selling his long yellow hair and beard, and by keeping the body on exhibition' after tho manner of a show of waxworks. The Em? peror ot Austria and his mother have shown" natural solicitude for tho recovery dr the remains of tho unfortunate prince, and dispatched Ad? miral TKQKTKorp to Moxioo to procure, them. Wishing to avoid the possibility of offending the suso op tibi! i koa of the Mexicana, the Admiral was sent on a personal, rather than an official, mission. On the 4th of Sepl^altter the Admiral presented himself at the' Office of Foreign Affairs ol' the Mexicans, in tho oity of Mexico, aud s tat od, is ap? pears in an officiel document, written, by the Mexican Miuiotor of Foreign Affair?! ,"That whou his journey to Mexico wa* decided upW, it was. thought that it would please tba Government of the Republic better for him not to como with any official mission from the Government of Austria, but simply with a private commission from the family, who, out of affection and family piety, naturally wished to obtain possession of the Arch? duke's mortal remains. For this reason he had come merely with a private commission from^hf Archduke's mother, and his brother, the Emperor of Austria. In reply to the Minister for Foreign .. Affairs, bo further added that he had brought n j document, arfa that he had simply received a Ver? bal commission from the family of the Archduke ; but that, if it were necessary, he was willing to give a written stetument that he had come fdr th? purposes already mentioned." The result was, the Admiral was refused the custody of the romains of the Prince. Tho Mexi jans cannot part with the poor clay on exhibition nt Queretaro so long as they see any hope of add? ing to their consequence by keeping it, and it gave . them the lntonae?t pleasure they aro capable of to be able to further wound tho feelings of the Aus? trian Emperor and his mother, and other civilized persons. Tho power cf inflicting pain is ope that lavages always rejoice in. ' ACCORDING; TO THE LETTERS of numerous French correspondents, the greatest success of the Gene- 1 .al Peace Congress was obtained by Madame it&yr, Whose literary name is Fanny Lo wald.

Tho views of "businessmen" on a subject like tho ono which hoads this article are entitled to con? sideration; and hence the time I have devoted to your correspondent, "Anti-Stay Law," as ho has assumed to represent that class of our commercial metropolis. I now propose to notice some of tho points which were not touched upon in a former article. And, flrflt 1 would put your correspondent tight upon a subject with which ho does not eooin to bo familiar, viz : the laws regulating tho practico of our Cout ts. He says, through tho mouth of bis Now York friend, that, "if wo sue them (Southern merchants) it will take eighteen months or two years to get judgment." ff he has been a "busi? ness man" long, ho must know that iu all cases, excopt in the summary process Jurisdiction, where judgements are rendered the first term, an impar lancf of one term is allowed, and judgments are obtained tho second term. As our Courts sit twice a year, Hpritig and Fall, judgments are tlicroforo obtained in tho general jurisdiction in six months from the return of the writ, and not in "eighteen months or two yearn." lu this respect tho Federal Courts conform now to tho practice or tho Htato Courts. There is, therefore, no Such legislation in this 8tato, as your correspondent pronounces "a fraud upon business mon, sud an incubus on trade." He bas set sot up a man of straw for tho exhibition of his pugilistic skill. ' ii But admitting for the argument that our laws regulating tho practice of tho Courts in this res peot, and which have been on the statute book from tho earliest times, are wrong; that they af? ford too groat, indulgence to debtors, what, I would ask, hr.vo they to do with the "Stay Law" or General Ordors No. 10 ? Does your correspond? ent intend, or propose, to introduce reforms in tho law boyond the revocation of those orders ? Or does he intend what he has said on this sub? ject, and ou the "propensity" of our people to postpone payment of their debts, and on tho sub? ject of "procrastination" generally, as nlocturo merely on theso evils which, ho says, prevail in this State ? If so, then it is harmless-indeed, may be productive of sorao good. I romember, whon an "old Held" school boy, to have labored hard over the copy set for youthful penmanship "Procrastination is the thiof of time." That is, though I may not have felt the force of it then, a great moral truth,'and "Anti-Stay Law" may en? large upon thc text to his heart's content, without provoking a remark from me. But what connection the Stay Law has with theso matters I* am unable to perceive. They have been thrown iu by the writer, it wonld seem, merely as "make-weights," and I must apologizo . for notic? ing them at all. Let us return to thereat question in hand. "Apti-Stay Law" says, his New York mouth-piece spca ting tor him, "But for tho Stay Law all your local debt would have been settled; now everything your people owe is piled up against them." This statement has been made oftentimes before by tho opponents of this measure of relief, and has as often been refuted. But, as it has been exhumed and again brought to light, and, if true, would ma- i terially affact tho argument in favor . of the policy < of such legislation, I proposa to show its utter falsity and absurdity. .? - The measure known as tho Stay Law was on act- j ed first in December, 1861. Thia wus after the secession movement had ended in open, flagrant war. Blood bad boen shed, and tho drum beat , "to arms I" was heard throughout the land. The < time had oomo when all thoughts of peace and I 1 reconciliation hod faded away, and the wild shout I, of "wer," '.'war," was flung upon the breeze. The 11 South, the weaker section, had summoned all her I ' arms-bearing sons to the field. The counting I \ house, and the artizan's shop wore closed ; the j j white man loft his holds to be* tilled only by sis vos; 1I all business was suspended, except that which the I j stern necessities of war called for.,. Tue produe-1 > tion-of supplies for the army food, clothing, and JI labor or the wholo country. Thinking men saw I, that iu the great contest in which they had en-11 gaged, it was necessary that all tho material re-1 sources of the country should be concentrated and I, plaoed at the disposal of tho Government, that all 11 nope of SUCCORS depended on thic. Bene? the I suactment of tho law limiting the production o' 1 \ cotton ; hence this measure-thc Stay Low, and 11 many other acts of legislation. j The debt due to the country was the one which I ' then claimed attention, and was expected to be I < paid. The arms, hearts, and purse, and, if needs I ;>.e, the blood of the people, were demanded; and I ' they were offered with willing minds. Individual I, lebtB wore not thought bf or named at that day, 11 ixcspt, perhaps, by the few who are now moaning I j ?ver the ions of their treasure. Tho Courts were I j aractically closed, the ancient maxim was realized, j I 'Inter armis s?enl legea." It was at a time like j 1 his that your correspondent would have us behove 11 hat ledgers were to be .thumbed over and balanced, ?j , soldiers and citizens alike beset by bills, bailiffs j < ind duns. Has ho eVer road the case of JOHN I j . IOOK, whom PATRICK TIENKY has immortalized in I ; -ldicule, who is described by the great orator as I ? ?oarsoly brawling, through the American camp, 11 loefl booti beef I and disturbing with his dis- I \ jordaut notes tho.general joy, and eilonoiug tho I ? icclamations of victory, at the surrender of Lord I ' ?OBHWAXUS on the plains ot York? If not I beg I j ;o'commend it to his careful perusal as having!, some application here. * I jj The} history of the times bear* testimony to the \'\ Tact that, from the very beginning of the war, the 1 j people, with few exceptions, devoted all their 11 means,' their .money and other property, to carry I ' lt ou. Their duty was not confined to paying I, onerous taxes in' money and supplies (tho tithe I : tax) to the Government, State and Confederate. J ; They denied themselves of 'all luxuries, and, in I, many instances, of comforts, at home, to meet the I. constant ball for private contributions of supplies j ; for the soldiers in the field. Our worn on plied the I. needle day and night in making up. clothing for j t heir sons, and stripped their beds of the last I bl mik ot for them. No fact in tho history of those I ? "times that tried men's souls," is I better known j than that, owing to this cause of the burdens of J ; tho war, nothing was realized iront agricultural I operations during those long years-that there was j no income from this source. How, thep, could j the people havo paid their debts ? With Confederate I money, say those who have fallen into the error of your correspondent. Because they were lucky in I their sp?culations, or had fat government offices, I wbioh enabled them to handle Confederate notes I by tho bushel, or lived iu communities where j ', others were thus fortunate) they have been led to j suppose that everybody in the State had on hand I during the war a large surplus of this sort of cusin I Never was there a greater mistake. Down to I the time when Confederate notes had become BO I much depreciated that creditors would not take I them in payment of : debts, the people generally I had not realized even of this sort ot money more { than sufficient to meet their expenses. Their in- I come from planting, as I have already stated, was I nothing. The cotton that was raised the first years of the war amounted to a moro trifle. And in 1803, when Confed?ralo ilotes bogan to depre- j ciato rapidly, creditors in the country generally I refused then! in payment of debts contracted be fore the war. 'The banks, it is true, continued to toke,thom till the end came; but the people gen- I ?rally were not indebted to the banks--they owed I one another. To sum up the whole: During the first years of the war the people, on account of I their contributions, public and private, to carry on the war, made nothing to pay debts with, I realized no income from agricultural investments, and a fte; ward?, when the cur ronny became pie- I thane, and they had a surplus to apply to their debts, it had become so muchdepreciated that creditors would not reoeivo it. TOR?? nr? mark/*) truths, arid in the face Of them, how eau it be said that, " but for the Stay Law all our local debts would have been settled ?" He who makes the assertion shows a profound ignorance, of the real condition of things whioh existed in tho country busing the war. He may understand the condition of things as they exjsted in a particular community, where speculation was on the wing,.where- blockade-running made its fabulous returns and absorbed every thought and feeling-even love or country itself, or1 where ar? mies were concentrated and quarter masters and commissaries kept their stores and made their expenditures. Ho may have viewed the snbjeot, whioh he ha? brought before the publio from that stand-point, but I,tell him that his facta as well as his argument must ?top there, within the narrow timi ts of his field of observation ; they heve DO ap? plication to the State of South Carolina et large. BACKWOODSMAN. Negro Suffrage. From thc Round Tfbtt.] Tue moral paralysis which tor soul?? tfruo has threatened to destroy tho vigor mid broal. down tho supremacy or tho Republican party is begin? ning to make itaolf felt IU n r>~, turner which may wol! excito the alarm and stimulate tho ingenuity of its loaders. It has already, in Maine and Cali? fornia, crept over the extremities, and there sro signs which randy presage falsely that indicate danger to the middle and vital Darts of the party organization. Tho excuses which tho Republioan organs think propor to sot forth as reasons for de? feat are of a character that bet ra vs both weakness and surprise ; while tho recriminations of tho dif? ferent wings of tho party give token of fatal differ? ences hereafter. Tho excusos, indeed, have them? selves been tho subjects of controversy; cine side claiming as tho essential cause of disaster that which the other insists wonl 1, if pushed still fur? ther, have constituted n sure means of victory Alleged reasons for failure are common enough after the event, but instances are rare when so many have boen thrust forward as have lately done duty to account for tho Republican discomfitures. Tho problem has been to find such au explanation as should not. seem logically incompatible with coincident assurances of future suc? cess. Tho Jialuro of the caso, how? ever, is such as to make tho solution exceedingly dubious. Most people have heard tho story of nie French mayor's apology to the prince marshal for tho omission of a salute when tho lat? ter dignitary entered tho town of ibo former. "Wo failed to Aro tho salute, your highness," explained tho mayor, "for seventeen reasons. The first wo? we had no gannon; tho sccoUd-" "Your pardon, Monsieur the mayor,'" interrupted tho prince; "your first reason is BO very excellent that wc eau dispense with the other sixteen." There may bo ol her . weaknesses in the -Republican platform or spots upon Its escutcheon, such us trie unconstitu? tional encroachments of Congress, tho maladmin? istration of tho publie finances, the oppressive and sillv tariff; but each and all of those may readily bo left among the sixteen reasons not enumerated.' The single and sumoieut rook which has shat? tered and threatens to sink tho Republican slip is Negro Suffrage; the others may make assurance doubly B?ro, perhaps, but are superiiuous aa ac? counting for th? lato misfortune. R?volutions do not go backward, and tho great republic rushes on very fast, and we march to the battle-cry of free? dom and all tho rest ol it; but it is clear that, tho American peoplo are not yet propared to accopt even tho partial rule of tho rohe they have just sot free. It was possible to make them eohore-nay, to mould them into a solid, compacted mass, whoBC weight and vclooity gave moment um suffi? cient to hurl down slavery ; but the constituents which assented to and fought for emancipation cannot bo got to asBont to, oven if they do not practically fight against, black enfranchisement. Tho distinction betweon au inherent right and a concoded privilege is boro apprehended bj' the popular mind in a very decided manner. ' It.is per? ceived that while the negro had a right to his froc doni ho haB by no moans the samo right to the suffrage. There in nb escape from two momentous facts: first, that the character of o Ur representation hus become low and discreditable; and, secondly, that to introduco moro ignorance into our constituen? cies must make it moro Jqw and discreditable. We may dodge and twist nod Took tho ot ?.er way, but from those plaiu 'propositions rh^re is abso? lutely no' escape. The black man may he educa? ted-perhaps-although we are utterly without precedents, or rather, the precedents wo have, make against the assumption. But, if we suppose him to be educated, it will necessarily havo been a work of time, and in the. interim ' his employ? ment of the suffrage may have superseded t he edu? cational necessity. Tho notion that votiug helps to educate, has, ol' course, some demonstrable f ou n da t ion, but not enough te j ust i fy thc enormous risk whioh implicit dependence, upon it would in this caso entail. We dislike and reprobate the our - rent slang about "niger--worshipping," nigger rule," and the like cheap phrases for catching the ear and flattering the blind prejudices of the mul? titude os heartily as any men can; but as a matter of Bolemn earnestness we fear they express what may prove to bo literal truths when universal or manhood suffrage shaU come. The blacks will cer? tainly thon have the balance of power and can rule the country more absolutely than their former masters ruled it in tho oldeo time. It is easy tm ou gb to offer consolation in tho persons of ex? ceptional- individuals and to promise ethnological development which shaU bring wonderful and iit tlo-expeoted results. The fact remains that whero sver in the world the negro has power-that is to say, control over himself or others-he is a bar banan, a cannibal, a Belier of hts own race into jlavery. The brutish elements which ure dormant pr suppressed under bondage may bo eradicated in freedom; they may,also,dovolope into modified rormn oLcruelty, unreason, end fatuity such as will produce, moving in mass, mournful, fantastic, Mid, in a national sonso, most degrading results. The friends of tho negro are very sanguine, and D? tho country would bo thereby exclusively nub served. - A paper which ranks among the most ratiocina? tive of .the Radical organs, and which in this re? spect affords a contrast to tho frothy and untrained rhetoric of tho Tribune, tttribntea "tho late Repub? lican losses to the obtrusive prominence of what il calls the "Puritan idea," which it defines as "a reeling of impatience at sin iu others and a dispo? sition to repress it by tho strojig arm." If this idea or element eau be eliminated, future Republi? can success may be confidently anticipated. But is not this idea the salt, the central dogma, the very life-blood, of fhe party it representa and with which it is identified? Theie is not thc least ioubt that the people nt large ore wear}' of this "feeling of impatience at sin in others a?d n dis? position to repress it by the strong arm." It is che feeling and the disposition which, canted from the pulpit, roared ftou> . tho rostrum, and cease? lessly inculcated by a zoalous press, have gained the Republican ^ar'ty its past success and brought that partv and the country to their presont situa' binns. To strike out the "Puritan idea". fdr the sake of mere success would be, os it eeoms to ne, m act of political felo-de-se which, dictated >nlv by selfish considerations, would not sven win glory by tho sacrifice. The Re? publican party, without tho "imitan idea'' wouia be like Hamlet without ita hero, cr the Kew York Herald without Mr. Bennett. It is the soul, the raison d'etre, of that porty to impose by force ac? tion or abstinence on others without regard to contrariety of conviction or interest which resists the change. The feeling is the truo and legiti? mate spirit of the Pilgrims, who, persecuted themselves, persecuted in turn to settle the ac? count; wit li this difference, that Now England of to-day seeks to subject others to tho severe dis? cipline she recognize i es ' Tight" without ever going through anything in the shape of pr?para? nt or complementary chastening herself. In tho civil war New England was the mistress and inspirer bf the situation. The rest of tho coun? try, or such of it as favored national unity and the extinction of slavery, accepted her guidanco and, temporarily, drank in her inspiration. ? In tho ex? citement of the combat the Puritan idea wa? para? mount, and was probably essential to "victory. But a very natural and a very widespread disgust for that idea has succeeded os a reaction to tho eflfeot* of too large a dose of it. We think, our neighbor quite right in its opinion that this idea must bo stricken out as a condition to the success of its party; we think it wrong in supposing thaMts party can healthily survive the operation. . The great mistake- which the Republican leaders have made, the mistake from whioh they are now buffering and from whioh they wili'snffer more, has consisted in their supposition that, the engine of what they call healthful progress, and what their opponents call unconstitutional revolution, could be Kept at full speed for an indefinite limo after the fires of war had boon extinguished whioh for? merly generated the requisite steam for their pur? pose. But tho moss ot the Northerners, while firm in their defenoe of national, "unity, and, after a given period, in their resolve to ovorthrow sla? very, went in their adhesion to those principles to the c .itrouie length that they were prepared to go. The Union preserved and slavery overthrown, the great desire of that mass hos been to restore the stain quo ante bellum in every respect which is compatible with obviously irrevocable changes. The Republican party might have been, probably would havo "been, sustained some timoslougor hud the war continued-sustained, that ls, until its close. But from the termination of hostilities the Republican party, through causes, perhaps, un? avoidable, and in spite of its efforts to avoid Buch a contingency, hos slowly but surely drifted into a position which is felt to be hostile to the beat interests of the united nation. It might be more accurately said that, slavery abolished and unity secured, tuero muainod no principien in the Republican creed or mensures in the Republi? can pi net iee which the aggregate intelligence of tho country could accept as sagacious or patriotic-; and that their further usefulness .was prevented rather bv the drift of events than by their own aotion. Their work .was accomplished, the Union no longer required to be saved and they have therefore turned to the less noble but very natural work of saying their party. Tho common aeneo of the people, however, recognizes the distinction. Gratitude is a very good thing, but it seldom goes so far in a national sense as to include a willing? ness to sacrifico future material interests Tor the sake of past services. Moreover, although tho work of ending tho war was largely done by Re? publicans, it is a fallacy no less flagrant because their most favorite one to assume that it was done by Republicans alone. Even if it had been, it is not by constitutional means that thoy can re? tain power after tho great majority of American citizens are oonvinoed that such a retention is unfavorable io harmonious reconstruction, to diminished taxation, and. >n line, to the solid prosperity ot the country. Unconstitutional means have certainly been threatened, and lt wUl bo no equivocal test of tue patriotism which has been so widely vaunied? If, for party purposes, t;ho Republican leaders shall venture to resort to as well as to threaten them. The way before na is cloudy and perplexing, and tho situation is felt by tho thoughtful to'be ono whleh may lead to enor? mous, &n? vt hst five years ago would havo been thought impossible, changes. Men do not obum so confidently as they once did that the emancipa? tion of the black raco is orr tain to aaauro the -per? manent freedom of the white. Weall, of course, strive to hope for iberos* hope ? to pise through aU onr troubles by peaoeJuJ abd oriuitablo moans, but a contrary experience may come upon ns when least expected. The elections prove tim existence of a determined feeling against it policy whioh is, however, felt to bo essential to thu slWatton of a powerful party holding ln?imaa?d?j ?Mniordinary opportunities and powers. From . this dilemma none can tell what may te ?volved ; but, ualeas we read the eigne of the times end measure the an? tagonisms of race very incorrect tv. Tho nation at large, should snob an alternativ? itt- forced upon it, would sooner submit toa single dictator than to a million m tho persons of black men. TALL INI! WINTER CLOTHING No. 21?
