THE i W,T" THE WILMINGTON POST; 4 W, P. CANADaV, Edr & PropV; WILMINGTON. ? a . HUNDAY Iorking. Jan. II. 1SS0. . The successor 'to Senator Thurman lTrom Ohio will bo Gen.' James A;xGar field, who as a statesman is the superior : of Mr. Thurman in every respect. He is not given to that sort of trimming which has ruined Judge Thurman, and he is solidly grounded in correct prin ciples regarding the nation. j Col. Jame3 UeTger, at sometime a pirate in the army, promoted to Major for gallantry; in Mexico was dismissed by .Stanton', and restored to his rank in . 1871. Since then ho has, been retired. Now he wants pay for the; rank he would have had ifjSlanton had ne$ cist-barged him. ' p .Among tho political clap-trap of the south' is the statoment that the slaves were originally brought hero by New; England ships. As a matter of fact the first slaves-brought to the south were by a Dutch ship in 1C20, just; about the lime thjat the Mayflower was going up Cape Cod bay. Until the Kcyolution ary war the trade was mainly carried on by the English." I " The southern Bourboni like fraud in polities so well, that 'although some of . them were staggered a ' little at first at the audacity of the Garcelon gang they now can't, to savo themselves, conceal their gratification atGarcelon's villainy. , The southern Bourbon has a t strong appetite for fraud in politics. ' They have got so used to it : that they ' roll it as a sweet morsel under their tongues. They like this sort of food so well that they are now lugging it all the way from Maine. : , ' "' " im t - ' - The Maine disease is contagious, fellow in .Minnesota, named Barnum, conceived the idea that he "had been elected. Lieut. Governor. So he has gone before a District Judge of Minne sota and taken the' oath to fulfiil faith fully the ofilce of Lieut, Governor, and " to support the "Constitution ot Minne sota and the United States. It is hinted that Gprcclo'n and his man Friday, old man Pillsbury, are going out to attend Barnu it's inauguration. Thef w Dictator f Peru, General Nicholas diri'ierola, was born in the town of Carva,nia in the department of i Arcquippa, and was educated tbire and ) i Li ma. He is only 19 years olJ. He is a person of great natural capacity , Tvhich ha3 been improved by extensive l travel, and broad experience. ITe lirst supported Prado, afterwards aided Con sesco in the overthrow of Prado in 1SG7, and the elevation of Jose Balta to the presidency. Pierola was made Minis ter of Finance by Balta, and. direct ed the country into vast schemes of railroading, in connection with Harry Meig?, a famous contractor, to whom ' he pledged the credit of Peru for vast, sums. Balta was: deposed iu 1872; and Manuel Prado became president. He was prominent in the tumults to 1S79, having declared" himself "Supreme Chief", of Peru in IS77. Now that Prado has fled the country Pierola has taken the lead of affairs. He is prob ably the ablest' statesman there is at present in Peru, and perhaps may be the means of extricating tho country from its difficulties. The Asheville Journal mistakes the Post entirely jf it has conceived it to be either dictatorial, or ill nap red, or meddlesome. It occurred to tla that it would be pleasant to sec those bold miunraineers solid for Buxton, and we said so, not with any intentioii 'of in i trenching on anybody's rights, oij tread ling on any body's favorite corn; The itrausmontano country, happily for us Avho have the misfortune to live dowii- ;on these ilats, 1s a part of the stale, and in some sense in everybody's political bailiwick, and as subject as the rest of us to be talked about. It is-difficult to -write or talk without saying something, and it is quite natural to say , what comes into the mind first, unless we cover the whole subject. If our speech seemed unconsidered or unseemly to x)ur mountain friends, we certainly did not mean irso. For we have become so amiable latterly that it is quite im possible for, us to indulge in an honest hate to any part of the world. A coutract for the construction of the Texas and Pacific Railway westward from its present terminus, at Fort Worth, to El -Paso, has been signed' The contracting parties are the Pacific Kailway Improvement Company, and !thc Texas and Pacific Kail way Com pany. Gen. Granville M. Dpdtre is president of the first, and Thomas A. . Scott, of the feeionu. The contractors are to recei'e20,O0l per utile in first mortgage bonds and the same amount in stack, on the part .constructed. The capital stock of the Improvement Com pany is $1,000,000 paid in. Among the shareholders are Itusseli Sage, F. L. Ames, G M. Dodge, Sydney Dillon, of the "Jay Gould Syndicate;" 'George M. Pullman, W. T'l Scott, G. Morisinia and C. F. Woerisuofler,' the two last named gentlemenjiolding one-fourth of the shares, and representing, it is an., xlerstood, certain German capitalists. The distance to build between Fort Worth and ElPaso isJaboutGOO miles, or more, and it there meets the (Southern Pacific Kailway, the President of which is U.P.Huntingdon. Jay Gould is at the bottom of the Improvement Com pany, and ia two years his syndicate will control a majority of the stock. Col. Scott remains as President of tho Texas and Pacific until tho road is completed. , DEMOSTXlATlKa AXIOMS. If there is one feature in the Consti tution of the United States more cher ished than another; among the people, it is the tenderness and assiduity with which it guards the rights and liberties of the individual citizen. Every in trenched privilege, every hereditary right, every possible advantage to one pferson over another, is, as studiously repressed and kept out, as cautiously selected phraseology can do it. Elec tions must be' held frequently; the writ ot habeas corpus shall always lie except in grave emergencies and public peril; no title of nobility shall be granted; and no person holding any office shall even accept any honor, title, or office from any king, prince or foreign slate, without the consent of Congress. There has in past times been no deviation1 from these principles, but the uninter mitting deference to that source of power the people, has been as vigilantly observed1, as it is laid down in theories. Can anybbdy assijn any reasons for abandoning these 'old and cherishek customs and principles now?" What motive impels those who are 'now blindly moving towards the brink of that modern political precipice, the hideous Third Term? What conceivable motive urges its advocates on? Is it that the Repub lican party is in such stress for a can didate that it must digress from well established principles of action, and commit a grave error, as the only road to success? Is it because in taking this step; an inflexible. antagonism to it will be encountered in the hearts of the American people? Is it because it is amusement to somebody to interpolate a fatality into our politics? Todescendlo particulars, let us en quire what will 1)3 the attitude of our German citizens on this que'stion. There are evidences that there is anxiety and restiveness all through that powerful element, against anything that looks towards imperialism, and that an organ ized oppdsitiono the Third Term has already grown up. The Germans are, if possible, more strongly against any step towards imperialism than are the Americans, because they have had a tase of it at home, and came here to escape it. - Again, that element in the Repub lican party which supported Greeley in 1872, under the name of the Liberal Parly, is already manifesting its dis satisfaction with the Third Term move ment. That the element is large in several Mates, everybody knows. AVe have lately seen what it could do in New York without organization. What might it accomplish over the United States wllk organization? It might lose us several states. What is the sense in unnecessarily offending this element to such "an extent that it may put candidates in the field? . There are hundreds ot thousand, aye' millions of people in the United States who arc jealous of any departure from the. old ways of the Republic, or any step in the direction toward monarchy. That the establishment ot this fatal precedent would' be the first step in that direction cannot be doubted. ? This opposition to the Third Term is not opposition - to .'Gen. Graut himself. It is to the perilous principle involved in his selection for a third term. There would be the same objection to anybody else, placed in the same situation. It must be borne in mind that.Gen. Grant has uttered no word on this subject. No shred of any opinion of his is on record. Others arc doing all the talk ing. We do not believe that he has any appetite, for beiDg bored another four years in the White House. To be anxious to reoccupy tljat position for a third time would not accord with his uniform deference to the public will heretofore. , '' ' 1 . Mr. Theodore Hobgood has sold the Wilson Advance "to Mr. John E, Vood- ward, with Sir. Joseph us Daniels as local. The Advance complains ot the depredations of certain rascals . on Christmas, who: Not satisfied with parading the streets auu making nignt .hideous with their unearthly yells, these rascally wretches went around town on t'hrisium 'night. ana punea aown .bik.iw, broke down fences, tore down gates, and wautouiv aestroyea liowerS and ornamental shjruberry. Such conduct is simply oultrageous and should not, and we'dare say, will not be ' tolerated, even in a peaceaoie community like this. . In consequence of -a cable dispatch aeceived by the London TJmcs from its American correspondent, who suited Mr. Edison at Menlo Park, and in jconv sequence of an editorial published in the samo paper and based hq their ia teryiew, gas stocks have fallen 5fL lowing a drop of 15 from their price The Coos Republican, printed beyond the White Mountains, in New Hamp shire, speaking of the exodus, says : "We would not object to taking a few thousand of them,the exodusters in New Hampshire if Uiey can stand our climate." ' J JKFFEuVON ON THE THIRD I TERM. -' Jefferson, on pages 64 and 65 of h's correspondence, Vol. I, , discusses the Third Term. He was in fivor ot a limited term. He says "My fears of that feature term for lite Were found ed on th importance of the office, on the fierce contentions it . migiit excite among ourselves, if continuable for life, and the dangers of interference, by foreign nations, to whom the choice of an Americau President might become interesting. Examples of this abound: in history ; m the case of thej Roman Emperors, for instance;: of the Popes of any significance ; of the German Em perors; of the kings of Polaad, and the deya of Barbery. I had observed, too, in the feudal history, and in the recent instance, particularly, of the Stadhol der of Holland, how easily, officers,, or tenu res or life, slide into inhcritancse. My wish, therefore, was that the Presi dent should be elected for seven yearsi lind be ineligible afterwards." ' " "But the practice, adopted, I think, is better, his continuance, for eight years, with a liability to be dropped halfway of the term, making that a period "of probation' That this continuance should be restrained to seven years, was the opinion of the Convention at an earlier stage of, its session, when it voted that term, by a majority of 8 against 2, and by a simple majority of colonics, that he should be eligible a second time. This opinion was confirmed by the House so late as J uly 2G, refei red to the- committee of detail, report.d favorably bv , them, and changed to the presentform by a final vole, on the Inst day, but one only, of their session. Of this change,' three states expressed their disapprobation; New York, by recommending an amend ment, the President should not be eligi ble a third ii?ne, and Virginia and North Carolina, that he should not be capable of serving more than eight, in any term of sixteen years; and although this amendment has not been made inform, yet practice sem3 to have established it. The example of four Presidents, vol untarily retiring at the end of the eighth year, and the progress of public opinion, the principle of which is salutary, have given it in practice, tlte force of precedent and usatjc; insomuch, that should tht President consent to be d candidate for a third election, I trust he WOULD BE re JECTED, ON THIS DEMOSSTKATION OF AMBITIOUS VIEWy." ' TIlKlttlHll AGITATOR. It was mentioned last week in these calumn that Mr. Jharle3 Stewart Par nell, M. P.,j from Ireland had arrived in New York. His purpose iu coming to Am eric a is to arous. tha people to sympathy 'with ihe Irish cause, and to solicit aid for the starving people. Not withsiauding thy fact that Mr. Paruell is a protestant, he is said to be the most influential man to day in Ireland, The agitations which are now going on in Ireland, are caused by the exhor bitant rates of rents iu certain sections. There ar. 5,129.169 acres of land in Ireland owned by 2,973 persons who rarely ever visit; jtheir estates. The an nual rental of tbeie acres amounts to $3,005,360 beides; the taxes, It i common that either the farmers or their subtenants are unable to raise enough to pay their rents and support them selves. At the present there is actual famine in certain counties. JMr. Par nell is a cool thinker and proposes a "partial remedy for the present troubles. He proposes an act of Parliament, al lowing the government to bid in ft the public sales of encumbered estates, which usually sell fur less than their value, divide them into lots .of from 20 to 100 acres and sell them to the farm ers and tenants, gtying JJjem ea.y terms of payment. Mr. Parnell is really not an Irishman at all. His mother wa3 the daughter of an officer in' our Navy, and his father was a quiet man arid the holder of a moderate estate in Ireland which now gives Mr. Parnell f00 annually. He is in appearance slim and delato. hut. . 1-- rs j- 1. 1 r .1 5 . t . i . . .'. iie lias muomuaoie uetermination.

It is said of him, that, 'At a meeting of the Home Rule Committee he urged that, unless the government granted a substantial Uni varsity bill to Ireland, the whole of the votes for the Queen's College should h opposed. 1 he proposal was rejected, aud Mr. Tarneil, who is a Protestant. is gajd, while smarting under defeat, to nave usea tn,e FOfas,; "Xou are a cow ardly lot of Papist faU A fierce con troversy raged Qn Jthis subject' jn Xh lrih papers. ) ft wp jsertid by some lutmocr oi i'ariKtmriit ar;d denied by ouuts luamie woru uutj peen used.

He hat taken to heart the lesson of Long fellow, that it is the duty of man to 'act in the living present rather than in dulge in. useless and empty denuncia tions of the irrevocable past: lvrom the time he rises to speak until lie sits down he arrests your whole' attention. - You see at a glance that he is no mere trad ing politician. He is not one of. those who would swird with the popular tide for a time, but sell their patriotism' on tho first-longed-for opportunity that presented itself in the shape of a situa tionas junior lord of the treasury or ad miralty, or any other snug berth that would put money , in their purse. lie is no political share broker, anxious to purchase a reputation in the cheapest market and sell it in the dearest No snug colonial appointment would tempt him to stray from what he at least considers it to be the stijaight path of duty. He is tio hungry politician. H is no emasculated political or social roue. He, on the other hand, prefers, the welfare of a people -to the aggran dizement ofa clas3. You may doubt his wisdom his worldly wisdom but it is impossible to doubt that he is in spired by patriotic and evtn the most chivalrous motives." "PLANTATION MAN KitS " Thej Knoxville Whig and Chronicle is all the time saying sharp things. The- -il A l j .i '"".' - . I wiucr uar aomeDoiy in uie vitiuny joi Knoxville made some comments on the subject of "plant4tiqn manners' whichi if we recollect, i3fa phrase invented by Horace Greeley. The editor is a south ern man and is speaking about what he knows. This is his manner of treat ing the subject : Wliat we understand by "plantation manners" is, tne manners of a bully who enforces his opinions by the arts of a bully. The man who carries a pis tol in his hip pocket with which to shoot any other man who fails to agree with him on political questions is guilty of what we understand to fee "planta tion manners." The young man who. after he arrives at the years of maturis ty, and is physically able t i support himself, but who earns , very li Lie and spends what hedoes earn for whiskey, cigars and fine clothes, sponging upon his old father for the balance ot his liv ing, ia also guilty of "plantation man ners." The Prodigal Son was an in stance. He wasted the substance of the old man in riotous living, spending a great deal of his time in talking poli tics, doubtless. When his boots ran down at the heel and the seat and knees of his pants and the elbows of his coal needed patching.and hisMandlady where he lodged, and his tailor refused to credit him for another red cent until the old score was paid up, he returned and -acknowledged the error of his way. But, while he was living fast, smoking cigars, drinking whiskey talking poiis tics and carrying pistols at somebody else expense andany one alluded to his 'nantation manners," his brothers, whoiw'ere at home working tor an hon est living, never thought of getting angry and applying the remark to themselves. , ' The ed i tor of the Chrbn ice was born and raised in the south. ' He has never lived anywhere else. He feels a pro found' interest in . the ."welfare of the south4 But li& d"oeg npj; Relieve that the south is to pe beriUitted by tjip op tions of bullying, blustering Congress men, or by the effusions of blustering, insincere editors ot Democratic newspapers.-' . ' ' '-j r '"'! ' The Whig is equally, happy when speaking of the exodus, almost as graceful as the Dead wood Pioneer is : We have never been convinced that the negro bettered his condition by em igrating to the west. As we have remarked once before, the colored man is Ilka other men in niost respects. He prefers to live where tages children. He is a cituen has a right to vole, and hi? JoTesj to feel that he may vote for: whouispvF he chooses, without endangering his life or person, or affecting his standing with his neighbors. Ho loves to feel that it he is fotced to go to law about any right, that the issues will be tried by juries free from race prfjud ice. Where he can not have these, he is not pleased to abid, and if he g?ts a good opportunity he ivill emigrate to some state or some locality where his rights will be respect ed, and where he can enjoy liberty of thought, speech and action.
