Speech. Plutjlbch .
FRIDAY, DEC. 6th, 1872.
If It is the purpose of the democrats
and conservatives to drive Senator
Merrimon and his friends into the
Republican party, we shall have no
objection. We will take them. We
learn that one of Senator Merri
mon's supporters, returning home
a day or two ago, was snubbed by
his conservative constituents, and
pronounced a Radical !
Much surprise was created in
Washington when it was announced
that the President had appointed
Ward Hunt, of New York, Associ
ate Justice of the Supreme Court,
vice Nelson, resigned.
It is said by those who jjrofess to
know, that the appointment was
made without consultation with any
politicians of New York. In con
firmation of this statement Senator
Conkling remarked that he knew
nothing of the appointment until
he saw it in print.
Mr. Hunt's appointment gives
universal satisfaction.
It is apparent that the President
is determined to run the govern
ment without much aid from those
who make politics a profession.
The National Debt.
During last month the National
Debt was decreased $1,898,229.82.
The total decrease since Gen. Grant
was inaugurated President on the
4th of March, 1869, is the enormous
sum of $364,895,229.69. Owing to
the rapid decrease of taxation, the
reduction of the National Debt is
timated at $60,000,000, for the cur
rent year, and for the year, ending
June 30, 1874, it is estimated that
the decrease will be only $33,000,000.
An hundred millions of the Debt
could be paid annually, but it
is thought best to gradually pay off
the Debt, and reduce the burdens of
taxation as low as possible. That
the Debt has been reduced since
March 1869, $364,895,229.69, is a fact
that strikes home it tells among
the sturdy yeomanry of the Repub
lic, and strengthens the Adminis
tration and builds up the Republi
can party.
Who Are the Men of Falsehood
and Bad Faith ?
We have not yet had the answer
we want , and must have. "We re
peat: "who are the men of false
" hood and bad faith ?
" Enough of these gentlemen,"
" says The News, voluntarily offer
eU to support Vance to secure his
"election."
"Who are they?
" Here is the list of Conservatives
" who voted for Judge Merrimon :
Messrs. Avera, Humphrey,Love,
" Merrimon, Powell, and Welch, in
" the Senate ; and Messrs. Ander
" son of Clay, Bryson of Swain.Dick-
"ey, Manner, Hinnant, Haynes,
"Joyner, Moring, Waugh, and
" Whitmire, of the House,
" Are any of these the gentlemen
" of duplicity, falsehood and bad
" faith alluded to by the News f
" We ask because we want to
" know ; and tee ' must have an an
ewer."
Constitution of Committees.
On the Joint Committee on Print
ing we find in the Senate branch
two Conservatives and one Repub
lican, a proper and equitable repre
sentation of the politics of the Sen
ate.
But the House : Mr. Speaker
Robinson constitutes his House
branch, four Conservatives and
one Republican; and as if to de
monstrate .his sense of the eternal
fitness of things, Ieavesoff of thi3
Committee on Printing the only
practical printer in the General As-
semblyr- :'ir:-. 'f -- : v
Mr. Gannon of the , House was
brought op tor the printing business
and for u years before and since. the
war was a master-printer, conduct
ing business on his own account;
and in excluding Mr. Gorman from
the House 5dmmittee on Printing,
and refusing the Republican party
the representatiott .otf said ddminit
ted it is entitled to- Mn Speaker
Robinson gives us a test of the stuff
of which he is made and shows
us, as plainly as conduct can show
anything, why, for whom, and
wherefore this Committee on Print
ing was constituted.
The State Printing.
Mr. Ramsay, the present State
Printer, has several times sent up
to the Legislature, through the pub
lic prints, his grievance the State
Printing.
He states that he is required to do
the work for sixty cents when other
States pay one dollar.
Now who required Mr. Ramsay
to do this work ? We answer NO
ONE, except, perhaps, the party
who wrote the card in to-day's Sen
tinel, to which Mr. Ramsey's name
appears.
The contract for the State Print
ing was, on three several occasions
last Winter, awarded to a party in
this city by the Committee on Print
ing, and the very last day of the
session of ,71-,72, Mr. Ramsay slipp
ed in and got the contract at the
figures of the other party to whom
the Committee had three times
awarded the State Printing; and
for which a contract and bond had
both been executed, and which, are
to-day, held by the old Committee
on Printing.
The manner in which the State
Printing has been executed for the
past two years is a lasting disgrace
to the State of North Carolina, and
the officers of our State Treasury
ought to be sued by the tax-payers
and made to refund to the people
every cent of the money they have
paid for such work.
Cost and Responsibility of the
Senatorial Election.
The Hickory Tavern Eagle be
longs to the Vance-Ransom combi
nation. Before the ballot on Tues
day last, that paper "went for"
Judge Merrimon and his friends in
the Legislature as follows :
On Monday, the seventh balloting
for U. S. Senator, resulted as elsewhere
indicated. It may be fun for our legis
lators as the merriment, incident to the
scattering vote, indicate, but it is death
to the tax-payer. This contest has al
ready cost the tax-payers of the State
several thousand dollars, lor which
there can be no quid pro quo, A hand
fal of obstinate bolters, hailing frem the
quondam State oi franklin, bent upon
beating Gov. "Vance, against the express
and unmistakable wishes of the parti
and the people, are responsible. We
bolieve that Vance will yet be elected,
however, we understand that the Con
servatives caucussed on Monday with a
view of centering on a third man who
that will be the .Lord only knows, judg-
" J XI 1 A- 1 11 -1?
ing iroin me lasi uauoung.
If this be true, the Franklinites, head
ed by our would-be Governor, Augustus
JMerrimon, can crow over the victory,
lor it is theirs. Shame !
It is a very clever performance
for those men who supported Judge
Merrimon last Summer to be twit
ting him on his defeat now. He
made the best run any Conservative
ever has made in the State, and the
ablest canvass.
Demonstrations.
We hold with the idea which ap
pears prevalent among Republicans
of late that the best method of sa
luting a political achievement is by
silent congratulation rather than
noisy demonstrations.
Without reference to the man
himself, the past political conduct,
or the future course of Judge Mer
rimon, the election of that gentle
man last Tuesday, to the Senate of
the United States by the united
strength of the Republican party in
the North Carolina Legislature, was
a Republican triumph, and as such
might have been appropriately cele
brated in a serenade and procession
for Senator Merrimon. Several dis
tinguished gentlemen of the city
were serenaded by the City Band,
and callled out for speeches ; but no
demonstration was made before the
residence of the newly elected Sen
ator, for the reason, that, although
having elected him, nothing was
desired or allowed to be done which
could have the appearance of an at
tempt to force the new Senator to a
declaration of principles or resolu
tion of future conduct more favora
ble to the Republican party than
the past course of Judge Merrimon
ha,d been. '
If Senator Merrimon, or any of
his friends, choose to form an alli
ance or permanent coalition with
the Republican party, we shall cor
dially welcome them, but it is not
the purpose of any Republican to
force or attempt to force any of these
gentlemen to any political conduct
or course of action they shall not
see fit to take freely and of their
own accord.
For these reasons no demonstra
tion has been made, and no formal
call made on Senator Merrimon by
the Republican party. JWe under
stand - none will be made, and we
heartily approve of this action of
the Republicans of Raleigh arid of
the Legislature. v ; - -
The funeral of 3Ir. Grcelejyjn the
day of the meeting of all the elec
toral ;xolIeges in theUnited States
furnishes another chapter in! the
history of remarkable coincident
ces.
As an historical event, we believe
it marks the beginning of an era of
good feeling, among all . of the
American people, unexampled in
the history of mankind.
This is , the consolation of .a deep
ly stricken people in the first mo
ments of their poignant grief and
their realization of- a National ca
lamity which has befallen us all.
The most eminently useful man
the country has known for a half
century, he has fallen in the sear
and yellow leaf as the fruits of his
life-labors were ripening into Na
tional prosperity, reconciliation and
universal good feeling.
Horace Greeley is dead, but his
good deeds do live after him for the
abundant glory and grandeur of trie
country he loved so well ; and at
his grave the American people have
renewed the bonds of their Nation
al affection and turned their sec
tional prejudices and party bitter
ness into mutual adoration, respect
and good feeling.
We believe that this spirit of
good feeling is so permeating the
hearts of all the American people
that it is as impossible to stop or
divert it as to prevent the blowing
of the winds over the snow-capped
hills of New England, among which
the great man of yesterday played
in his boyhood and nursed those
youthful aspirations which have
had their destiny in National use
fulness, and their reward in the
appreciation and acknowledgments
of forty millions of the free, en
lightened, progressive citizens of
the foremost government of the
world.
We believe the era of universal
good feeling is upon us, and that
we who live in the United States
to-day are living in the very best
times any people of the world have
ever known ; and the future prom
ises are enough to gladden the heart
of the Divine, the Statesman, the
Farmer, the Mechanic, the Mer
chant, the Professional man, and of
all occupations and callings ; for we
are entering upon an era of National
prosperity, happiness, good feeling
among ourselves, good will to all
men, and peace on earth.
At the funeral of Mr. Greeley on
Wednesday were President Grant,
Vice-President Colfax, Secretaries
Boutwell, Creswell and Belknap,
with others of the most prominent
Republicans of the country, com
muning in sacred grief with the
leading Democrats and Liberals
who lately stood at the head of
those three millions of American
voters, armed with their ballots for
Horace Greeley, for President of
the United States.
It was the final closing of that
war of party jealousies, sectional
prejudices, hostile armies and rank
ling bitter feelings that has torn
and distracted this country for a
period almost equal to the life of
the good man gone ; and the sun
that set on the new made grave of
Horace Greeley rose next day on a
new and blessed era of National
good feeling and prosperity for the
whole American people.
