The Charlotte Ob&rocf regrets
that the Watchman should opposa an Ap
propriation by the Legislature for tne.
purpose of defraying the expenses of the
Centennial celebration of the HeckleuDurg
Declaration of Independence,
Now. as the Landmark and some other
paper have reminded us that this is a land
of sorrows 5 that the evidencee of distress
are in every household, and that there is
a prospect of nearly every body's dying,
who are now living, before auother hun
dred years roll routid, we are decidedly
impressed with the impressiou that t will
matter very liule with those who are to
hold the second Centennial whether there
is an appropriation made by the present
Legislature for the purpose desired or
uot. It would perhaps be a good thing
for the present generation to set an exam
ple of economy P the children of the uext
since times are eo distressingly bard.
But we don't propose to control the Leg
islature in this matter. We only speak
onr own opinions through the Watchman.
W do not ask any one to adopt them ;
and besides we are liberal and generous,
always open to conviction, and ready to
confess our errors and retrace our steps
when we are convinced that we arc in the
wrong. But we cau'f see the matter
through those lumps.

County records with mortgages, increase
the value of real estate, and maugerate
an era of improvement, enterprise, iudus

there would still be plenty left, more ac

Ah 1 We are told that money should
be free, that it is a commodity of trade
and should not be trammeled. So is
whiskey, but those who vend it are some

There are many other things that might
be mentioned, as luxuries and commodi
ties of trade, and yet they are subjected
to the restraints of law. We cannot see
the propriety in putting money down as a
commodity of trade, and if we were to
admit that it is, we can see no justice in
allowing the money lender less freedom
from leual restraint than the whiskey
vender. Laws are made for the purpose
of punishing and preventing evils. Who

The indignation meeting, held in
New York city, to give expression to the
Louisiana outrage, was a big thing ; but
what do such meetings amount to if
they fail to embolden Congress to perform
the duty whieh devolves upon it ? Con
gress has done nothing yet. Why has
not Grant been impeached J While these
meeting show tbatthe masses of the
people are opposed to a military despb
tistn, the criminal indifference of Congress
l the strongest evidence that the Radical
leaderfl are in sympathy with Grant and
Sheridan and really countenance their
crimes against civil liberty, constitutional
law, and the rights of the States and
people. The failure of Congress to im
peach Grant for these outrages can not be
mistaken. It shows a settled purpose on
the part of Grant and the Radical leaders
"to disregard the people and to overturn
tLd present form, of Government if posij
- ble. Such is Radicalism stripped of all
Let no one be mistaken.
n'li C - - ...I,a lira t n
cry, a amaii class, a iew uo wuW
usury, on the interest which tbey are
permitted to extort almost without limit
from the laboring millions. The money
men of England are prosperous aud in
dependent, but the great masses of the
people are mere hewers of wood and
drawers of water mere slaves, to the mon
ey class who are in fact the government.
And so it will be here, should the tune
ever come when the money lords shall be
permitted to exaet whatever interest they
may choose. The Federal government
has already set the example and estab
lished a precedent in favor of a moneyed
aristocracy, and it becomes the duty of
the States to rebuke the Federal govern
ment and pnt an effectual check upon the
proposed outrage by passing such laws
as will keep interest at reasonable rates.
The States ville Landmark publishes it
says for the purpose of disapproval, tpe
following extract from Hon. W. M. Rob
bin late speech The extract reads :
"Much as I regret and condemn those
acts of the Presidentand the Lieutenant
General, I have special reasons for avoid
ing all approbions terms of speaaing 01

The taudmark then proceeded to com
ment after this style ;
MThu Maior was prudent enough to
avoid opprobium, and we truly regret that
be was so very uniortuuate as to bestow
unineeded adulation upon that course,
vulgar tyrant and butcher. Sheridan.
Certainly his bosom must have been over
charged with the milk of human kindness,
and equally certain, he was not looking at
thu brute through the spectacles furnished
by the people in the 6th Congressional
District.''
We are surprised at the above comment,
coming from the intelligent source it does.
Maj. Robbiu'ssimply told the truth when
he said Sheridan is a gallant soldier,
and every veteran of tree's army will
sustain him in the assertion he has made.

FEDERAL AND
RIGHTS.
In a message to the Legislature, ou the
Louisiana question, the Governor of New
Jersey, treats the whole subiect of
Federal and State rights iu the following
concise and able manner ;
That such action was a clear violation
of the Constitution needs no argument.
A mere statement of a iew fundamental
principles which lie at the foundation of
onr system of government, and which are
so plain as to have become axioms, is all
that is necessary. The first great truth
bearing upon the question is that the
United States Government is the creation
of the States ; that it has no power except
that which was bestowed npou it by the
States, and that all powers not delegated
are reserved to the States and the people
