cal revolution must be recognized. The changes
wrought by it must be accepted, with all tbeif
concomitants, and the beet must be made of the
situation. We must turn our backs, ft we act as
wise statesmen, upon the dead past and look on
ly to the present and ihe future. We must take
a new depsiture and steer our course by the
chart furnWicd by Use lime. We must keep
pace w ith ihe progress of events, and turn them
t good a . -omit. We must cease to follow
ihoe leaders, wh , unable, or unwilling,
to realize the situation, are constantly calling
npoc iw to follow them back to the point ftvm
wjiich we wandered when we embarked in the
lata revolution. They arc not Conservatives
but Bourbons. They are not t'ic men to guide
and direct 'he events of the times into harmless
or u.etiil channels, but to Torre them into mis
chievous an I hurtful ones. Wc must discard
the prejudice of education, the "old fesryism"
of the limes, and dimonslra'e to the world that
we are a progressive ra'-c, whose nertriet cann. t
le paralyzeil by miafortune. We must show
that we are capable of adapting ourselve to the
changes of the limes, and cultivate pacific rela
tions with our Northern brethren. For we must
become a homogenius people, and the w.oner the
better
Ity this it is not mennt that the glorious recol
lections of the past are to be blotted out that
we shall cease to venerate the memories of the
long line of Statesmen and jurist the Stanlvs,
Ihe Macon, the Oasuwis, the Hendersons, the
Iredella, the Ruffins, and oihersof Ihe same type
wlio have rendered the annals of onr States so
illustrious. These every true North Carolinian
w.U continue to venerate. They aiil strive T6

uih,rs of the same pure an, loy rnaracur, ,
the same rreal minus, pr..iomiu miihu i
unselfish patriotism, but villi idem tvikd lo thr
times in tMeh they lire.
As the IlilUboro Recorder very truly obervcs,
there is not at this timej any welLrgauized par
ty in ihe State. "Tlieie are," says that paper,
two faetion in the State, Wli radical." And it
might, with equal truth. J.Y.c.auea, una -,
both malipunt, both FroacnpUv ami both
revengeful. Both of these faci.ons proles to U
iuri iu incvci HUH.MI, . i i
Mhe sanation, both profess to be w N ng to ac-
cord to the colored man tuengh lo vo e to h M
oi.ice.ndhveas.dt.zen. In fact
only difference that can be discovered be. we n
them is that "one faction lias tli spoils a no u.e
other wanta them." Neither of these factions i,
fit to govern bcoa ie the has is of their frgar.izi
tiop is to be found in their pass-tons -in their
malignant and revengeful feelings. That one of
them is unlit to govern we know by a woeful ex
perience. It has had control of the State gov
ernment fir two years ami our readers know as
well as we do what it has done. In its admin
istration of the government it has never arisen
above a spitef il and malignant partizanism. It
Executive, esjtecially, has uevcr sought men lor
for official appointment who bore fair reputa
tions or commanded public confidence. lie has
never given the moderate Conservatives, who
w;re disposed to support his administration, an
inch ef ground to stand uion. Such malignant
and narrow minded partizanism as belongs to
that faction incapacitates any faction to admin
ister a government. A great party, with liberal
views and ideas, led by Statesmen, may success
fiitty aUtuintster a government, but a malignant
factton, which ignoles thestatesmanshipw'iUii it
could command, must necessarily fail. And if
the other extreme faction shooki come into pow
er it will scarcely sucwed alTytcr tor the very
same reasons. Pit.er and malignant tiartizan
ism, a revengeful and piwcriptive administra
tion will alienate a large part even of those who
may asist in bringing it into power.
Between trie two extreme and contending
fai-tions is to be found the great body of the best
and most respectable people of the State, those
who love peace, law and order, those to whom
the State must look for her character and
prosperity. Among them are to be found not
only the farmers and manpfactures of the coun
try, bat many of hef merchants 'and business
men, aa wejl as many of her ablest professional
men. This clasa iqsjprcd of discord and party
bin ernes and long for a period of repose. Jt
Willing to forgef the pastjHFadopt inch a
platform as we have alrewly given the outlines
of. It comprises the Liberal and progressive
element of tin) State, and -in it are to be found
the beat men who have heretofore acted with
both the faction of which we have been speak
ing, but who are heartily tired of them. If it w.t
possible to organize this element into a party, a
wwareanxious todo, it would form one of the heat
and moat imposing partir that our Stale has
w en for year. If it would not be able to con
trol the State entirely it wonld certainly hold
the balance of power. And it requires brtt Jrt
lJe Bagarity to see that it would compel one of
the Other parties to accept of it nominees, and
that it would oon absorb all of that party that
wa worth having. But we fear eoch a party
cannot be formed at this time. A large portion
of the people, we-thiuk, arc ready for but Ihe
pub!ie men, tins who lead and contrfJl in such
KAlWM, arc timid. The editoia of the rndgr.
the IlUI-boro fUsordtr, tLe Salem JV.- and our
Betf have the courure to urge forward the roove
roerst. but all ihe other editors who hoisted the

To organise oW the element of the oppo-
t.s.
niiion into a iarty, in nariuony nn nmn
of the great national partir , would be iilur'y
iinxihle at the pre-nt lime. While a large
majority of the people of the Slate sre In oppo

the national adtuininraiion, a very large num
ber of liiem have no defined political Mt, aa

litical party organisation in the usual cene of
the term and it i HeW 10 attempt it under any
name. And no name can be lea expressive of
the principle, and diigt of a part of it than
that of "Conservative."
Keing satisfied that thegreatliberaleiement
that clement which Is judiciously snd truly con
servative snd yet sufficiently progressive for the
tlrnes-cannot be organized into a party at this
time, for reasons, wnie of which, we have given,
we can fie no good to result from an attempt to
reorganise the s.Hoalle.1 L'omaTvati ve party. In
our opinion no strength will be given to ihe op
position by such re-orgaiiititiiiii. but that it will
thereby be wi akeued. If no attempt i made to
organize and Tlraw party line hundreds and
lhoiini f men will unite with the opposition
who will ciilicrvUe be deterred from doing so.
As there will lie but one State officer to elect
next Summer, in addition to the members of the
legislature, it will, we think, be much the best
to let the opposition work entirely under local
organizations. In the West, especially where
the greatest change has taken plat e, we feelcon
tidcul that the re-organization of the Conserva
tive party of l wo yesrs ao will add nothing
halever to the t rengtb of the opposition, but ihe
reverse. The cople can safely he left to them
selves to choose their Senators and Represent,
tives without the assistance of a defunct party
galvanized into life again for the briel "JW M of
an electi jnee rins campaign, They will, in most
inssances, we h i e and believe, elect neither
radicals nor fanatic next lime. Their iad ex
perience, it is hoped, will .ead them to select
none but men of as-koowledged capacity, liiyh
k.r4r and undoubted honastT foroffic. All the
elements ofopposiiioii to the present corrupt ad
I n.inUiraiion of aflkir. all those who have the
gll(d ,hanMler of tbeHt.te

other, and unite in the election of honent aud

Charlotte Tim which we transfer to our col

"We sav that heretofore, there ha Iseen too
much partizan bitterncsvoo much indiscrimi
nate abuse, too little discrimination between the
gesl and tlie bud, the wilful eorrnpt ami the
ignorant and credulous. We must change onr
tactics, use argument, appeal to the better nature
of the misguided instead of denunciation and
ibuse-. We must recognize the fact that men
may differ from us, may even do wrong, without
being enrrupi." K
"I;t the t onservatives and lilieral Republi
cans now in the Legislature force a final a.lio.irn
ment, and this Summer -'the men who love Aorth
Carolina" a ill strike hands and co-operate in
electing "statesmen and not partizan bigots and

"The deKite in the Senate yesterday was im

the "small Democratic minority" at lhat day in
the Senate to this damaging development.
There must certainly be some mistike. Yet.::o
Senator seemed to contradict Mr. Sherman, al
though several implicated members stilt remain
in the Senate."
There is no 'mistake" about it. No one of
the "implicated Henators" "contradicted" Mr.
Sherman for the retaon that they could, not,
The fact is notorious ard carinot be gainsayeif.
We have Iwfore referred to this matter and in
forn.ed oar readers who was to blame, a much
a anv one else, for the present condition of
thing" in the South. Tit Democrats united
with Ihe Steven, or Radical wing of tlie Re
publican party to incorporate the 'universal ,f
frw clause in the reconstruction arts. Without
the assistance of the Democrats the universal
siifrrageainpndment would Jiave failed. And
what Wat (itcif o':jcv: Wh "r- J;mu"
so a to defeat it T Thar could have
had no hope of that, inasmuch as the Republi
can had an overwhelming majority. TUir ob
ject was to make the measure as odious as possi
ble, that they might make party capital out of It
by holding their opponent responaible for It.
The (art is that the Northern Democrats care no
m .re for the people, of the Houih than do the
Northern Republicans and not as much aa the
Liberal Republicans do. Both pa. lies have
made our suffering a mere instrument ItO effect
their own political advancement; but on of
them, Ihe IKroocratlo, ha failed mast signally.
U ha made lavish promises to the J Southern
people, but It will never redeem one oTthem.
The oily things it has given them, in addilionto
the assistance it rendered in giving them uni
versal uflragvai.d Carpet-Bs Reconstruction,"
has been a large amount of bad advice whtc.tr
ihev have, unfortunrtely, taken. The fact is
well known lo ns, and to some oilier Southern
feutleroen, that a large number, if not
a majority, of th Republican menilsjre
of Congress were oppod to overthrow
ing the Htata Oovernmenla, which had been or
ganized under ihe Provisional (loveriiori of
President Johnson. They were willinp, anil

ipjalified and impartial suffrage, which would
have disfranchised no one then entitled lo vote

were willing to meet tiie Southern Slates half

PURGING THE PARTY.

p. .in .1 in the Standard of Tuesday, which we
glve entire :
"The course of the IgiIatnre has len such

Knougli Republicans in the legislature turn
ed traitors to give the power into the hands of
the Democrats. They have used that jsiwer,
and have done everything Jossiblc to iiijure the
people and to disgrace the State. In a few weeks
moreThey" intend to kick aside their miserabl
allies, anil to pmclaim lhat the deeds they them
selves have done are a part of the record of the
Republican party. It would lie false, but false

The time for protests has passed they have

shall denv all sympathy or connection will) tlie
legislature which now" misrepresents the people
of N'orth (,'arolina.
Iel them condemn the wanton Waste of the

we dare not say that every man is dishonest ho
