Under this head the Asheville Pioneer states . a proposition very calmly, and the subject is one well worthy the consideration of every interested. If the Pioneer had kept cool from the be ginning, and confined itself to ar guments and reason, facts and figures, instead of resorting to the abuse it has indulged, there . is hardly a question that a much greater good would have resulted to all in the end. The Pioneer pertinently asks " Suppose Mahone and the Southern "Security Company compromise " their quarrel, and Mahone allows 11 them to use his road on reasonable " terms, what will they want with " the Western ': Carolina Road ? " They would not have it as a gift, "upon condition that they should "expend, as they now propose to "do, over $2,000,000 to complete "it." The Right Spirit. The Tarboro Southerner in ah ar ticle on the appointment of Mr. Battle to the office of Superintend; ent of Public Instruction indulges these sensible remarks : "Politics have nothing to do "with this matter, and he who "endeavors for party purposes to " make the issue a party measure " will receive the severe condem na " tion of every lover of his State.?' The Governor in filling the edu cational Bureau , of North Carolina determined to have no politics in it, and hence he selected a gentle man who could command the sup port and co-operation of the oppo sition, and who, at the same time, was not obnoxious to Republicans. Mr. Battle is not a partisan , nor is the office a partizan position, and the duties are far removed from Dolitics. The Southerner treats the matter with good sense and in good taste, and pledges its support to the educational interests of the State, In a non-partisan patriotic spirit. The Asheville Pioneer Grows Unreasonable, and Assaults its Friends. The Asheville Plowed has wrought itself into a terrible passion in its zeal for the completion of the West ern North Carolina Railroad, and snaps and snarls furiously, without rfiflsnn or cause, at everything it sees or hears. ' : The J2Wis very much surprised to find" itself one of the. victims of this hot backwoodsman1 s wrath, and that too 1 while the Era is and has been one of the most anxious friends to the early completion of the Road ; and in attacking the Era the Pio neer is assaulting one of its strongest and firmest friends, while its whole sale denunciation of Governor Cald well has neither benefitted the Pio neer nor strengthened the Railroad cause it so warmly espouses: for some of the gentlemen most desir ing the completion of the Road and so Interested in its sale, have been here earnestly deprecating the course of the Pioneer in assaulting his official conduct and personally attacking Governor Caldwell for the course he has seen fit to pursue. - The writer for the Pioneer is evi dently so completely off his balance that he cannot distinguish between friend and foe, and after laying out the Governor and the Era he is ready ,to exclaim "how many Cald wells are there in the field ; two have I already slain !" Of course Governor Caldwell will not be moved by, any amount of personal abuse, nor will the assaults of the Pioneer or any other paper induce the Era to denounce the of ficial conduct of the Executive rel ative to the Western North Caro lina Railroad, for he has but done what any patriotic Governor must have done when appealed to by cit izens and interested parties for Ex ecutive interference. Having so interposed, and gotten the matter before the Legislature in proper shape, the Governor will hardly feel it his duty to take any further steps of his own ; and the Era pro poses to deal with the matter in an argumentative tone, and to rest the case upon its merits, rather than re sort to appeals to passion, indulgence in senseless strife or assaults upon official conduct and personal char acter; and if it is any gratification to the Pioneer, to say so here, the Era has to declare, as the result of a patient and careful investigation, that, it entertains little doubt that the Road must go to sale, and hopes that it will be speedily com pleted, to the Tennessee line with out unnecessary delay or irritating useless obstacles. The Democracy Openly Es pouses Ku Kluxism. A bill was introduced in the Sen ate branch of the North Carolina Legislature on Thursday by Mr. Allen, of Duplin, the provisions of which extend amnesty to all per sons in this State who Jve com mitted crimes of any grade what soever, whether members of the Ku Klux, League, Redstringor any other secret oreranization.. This movement has not taken one alto gether by surprise. It is well known that the leading: members of the Democratic party feel under some obligation to screen from .punish ment, if possible, the numerous members of the infamous Ku Klux Klan, who have committed such hellish crimes at the instance of, and for the political; advancement of these same leaders. No other organizations or secret societies in North Carolina than the Invisible Empire, White Brotherhood, Con stitutional Guard, all part and par cel of the Ku Klux, have commit ted crimes as an organization, nor is there the least evidence to sup port the supposition that there has existed in this State any other or ganization whose purpose was to accomplish personal or political ends by the commission of crime. The attempt will doubtless be made to pass this bill with the aid of Republican members, and in order to ensnare unsuspecting Re publicans, if any such there be, the societies of Leagues and Redstrings are included in the bill. When and where have orders f members of the Union League, or of the Red- strings, rode through the country, covered with hideous disguises, and hung, whipped or maimed peacea ble and inoffensive citizens, simply because such citizens were of a dif ferent political opinion ? Who has asked for amnesty for Leaguers and Redstrings ? Nobody ! Did Leag uers or Redstrings hang Outlaw, drown Puryear, assassinate Ste phens, whip Ramsour, Caswell Holt and hundreds of others who felt the halter, lash anct knife at the hands of disguised assassins in 1869 and 1870? If they did, where is the proof? On the other hand, all these crimes have been proven to have been committed by the Democratic Ju Klux, and the Ku Klux are those for whom amnesty is sought, and the passage of this bill would have no other effect than to snatch from the clutches of outraged law the Ku Klux Democrats who have committed murder in cold blood, and have preconcerted and executed upon their political oppo nents injuries too horrible to eon template. We tell 4 these Democratic advo cates of such amnesty that this whole proceeding is understood. The peo ple see and knQw the object in view. It is well known where this project originated and by whom its passage is urged. It is known that in a cer tain county in this State, where the Ku Klux criminals are numerous, collections have been taken from Democrats to pay the ex penses of lobbying this bill through, and that prominent Democrats from this same county .(not members of the Legislature) have been and are now in this city assisting in drafting this amnesty bill and lobbying ior its passage. : Let the friends of the Ku Klux go on in this matter, if they wish. No Republican will so far forget :his duty as to lend his aid. The whole responsibility of turning loose upon society, without punishment, these murderous Ku Klux shall rest upon the shoulders, their of own friends the Democratic party. The Constitutional Amend ments of the Democratic Party and the Party of Democratic . Ku Klux. The endorsement . by the Demo cratic party of North Carolina of the Ku Klux Klan, made in the Senate of Thursday last through the introduction of the Allen-Judi ciary -Alamance-Amnesty bill, was unqualified; thorough aridcomplete. It is nothing more nor less than an open espousal -by the Democratic party of the cause of the Ku Klux Klan of North Carolina. - These facts being so, the proposed Constitutional Amendments resolve themselves into a question of grave magnitude for the consideration of the Republican Senators and Rep resentatives of this Legislature. The Republicans of North Caro lina have declared their willingness to support certain amendments to the State Constitution ever since the proposition was made to call a Convention in 1870. And there are amendments they could and would support now, provided they were assured that there was no Demo cratic trick in the scheme and the amendments they would support could be submitted separately, by themselves, and that the other pro positions should be stricken out entirely. But when it comes to classification, which ism itself confusion and the proposition is made to submit the whole batch of amendments classified, why, then theRepuJlicans can have nothing, whatever, to do with the affair, save to vote it down and kill it where it is. Certain Republican Senators and Representatives are reminded that their people desire some of these amendments, and that to the sup port of such they pledged them selves on the stump last Summer. This is all true, but then they were fighting the Democracy and opposing what the people were made to believe was the Democratic party unconnected icith and totally repudiating the Ku Klux Klan. But recent events disclose the fact that the Democratic party has been swallowed up by the Ku Klux;' and, that, that great republican institution has been turned into the despotism of an "Invisible Era pire." When the people have hitherto discussed the Constitutional amend ments they have simply estimated their effect upon the State by the Democratic and Republican stand ards of politics, but now that they must view these amendments as constituting a proposition to per manently enthrone thej "Empire Invisible" the people will take back much of their expressed pref erence for certain of these proposed amendments. As the Democrats or brevet-i?wisi bles are still confidently Cherishing the hope of securingjudicial control of the State of North Carolina through this proposition to amend, a corresponding danger exists that they may so manipulathe Constitu tional amendments as to succeed in their design on the liberties, rights and protection of the people by striking down the judiciary, and erecting on the ruins of civil law and in place of the temple of justice a sort of modern temple of Mars. wherein the sword and the violence of the "Invisible Empire" shall be the law of the land and the legal power of the land. Startling events of the past fewr days develop the fact that the Re publicans of North Carolina have stood in no more imminent danger since the war than that which now threatens them from the direction of these Constitutional amend ments, and the menace contained in these proposed amendments are sufficient to awaken with alarm every Republican and poor man in North Carolina from Currituck to Cherokee. For : If a Democratic Legislature can seriously propose to stand in the way of the execution of the law on a set of cold-blooded, cruel, heartless villains, outlaws and MURDER ERS, what wTould a Judiciary cre ated by such a Legislature of Dem crats and Ku Klux not propose, attempt and carry out ?
