in the sev.T.il Stales. Tbh i the doctrine
for which the Southern people have al
ways contended and sat i II contend.
Tbe difference between tbe Chief Jus
tice and the Conservative jieoplo of the
South, it will he seen, i a mere abstrac
tion, and i practical! v one of no impor
tance whatever. A a citiaen of tbe State
of Ohio be voted for universal suffrage in
that fttate, but bcld that it eoald- only be
conferred by a vote of the majority of the
present voters of the State. Such Ms
of .-t.it. rights, and he claim that
State of North Carolina posees the
right a the State of Ohio or any
State, On the nbjci of Bute
i ight this is eoneeding nil that is doman
ded in rrhttion to uffrage. Carry oat hi
views in this respect and the people of the
Southern Slate will very soon settle the
question for themselves just as tbe people
of Ohio did. What more do we of the
South ask than to have tbe matter left to
the Constitutional voters of the Southern
States! Nothing.
It is supposed by many that tbe diver
gence of tbe Chief Justice from the Re
publican party commenced with the pas
aage of th? impeachment icsolntions.
This is a mistake. It commenced at least
-jm- .
& vur am when ne aeciaren imra me
bench, ou opening the Circuit Uourt ot
the United State in Raleigh, that North
Carolina was (till a Stato ta the Union,
and that peace having been restored she-
was entitled jto all ner ngnt ana privi
lege as suck That declaration fell like
a thunderbolt upon the ears of the Radical
cal leaders. That declaration, if true, as
the conservative meu ot the whole country
believe it was, at once convicted those
leaders of tbv grossest aurpatiorjj in the
passage ot tbe so-called Reconstruction
Acta- It was equivalent to a declaration
that those acta were anconstitutioiial, and
from that declaration dates the disagree
ment between him and tbe ultra radicals.
V e b.i ve aot commenced writing this
article fer tbe purpose of advocating the
nomination of the Chief Justice for-the
Presidency. That 'question must be de
cided by tho Northern Conservatives who
b bcstXiudces of hi availubilily. If
he is the . nly available man with whom
to defeat the Ch60 nominees, then we
think tbe nomination should be conferred
upon him ; but of this we have no means
of forming an opinion. We have no means
of knowing whethW, m the event of his
nomination, tbo democracy oftbe North
would unite apon ISm "ft wit If the
Northern lkmoeraeycould be united up
on him, then we should have no hesitation
in pronouncing him tbe most available
candidate that eoald be selected. If he
should receive the uominatioii at tbe New
York Conventmnm tbe fourth of July,
and tbe people of North Carolina should
K palled nnon to narticiusate m the elec-
, i
lion, we would support him with great
cheerfulness. And, in that event, we be
lieve that be would receive tbe votes of
thousands of men in Western Carolina
who voted the Radic.il ticket in the late
election.
But there is one point on which we
ould like to hear from the t hief Justice,
and on that point we would like to bear
from him OS Ci Justice- As it i known
tht he refards the reojnstruction acts as
unconstitutional tfe'woold like to liavo
judicial opinion from him to that effect.
But if such opinion cannot be obtained- m
any case now pending before the Supreme
Court we would like to have Mr. Chase'
opinion as to hote those acts, and what has
bien done under the m, can Wf set
mil cotten rid of. and how the question of
suffrage can be submitted to the constitu
tional voter only of the Southern State.
A Mr. Chase has laid down a theory for
the settlement of the perpleiing question
of suffrage it is bufciairw to presume that
be can point to a practical plan by which
to earfy out that theory. As much a the
Southed people 'tgto
amnesty proclaimed, they will yet not be
satisfied with a settlement upon the basts
of "universal amnesty and universal suf
frage' Nor will tbo Northern people be
satisfied with a settlement upont hat basts
any more than wilt the Southern peopl
That ha already been demonstrated by
the vote on negro suffrage in Ohio, l iebi-

Tht littler Mwiriftasi. Tbe question
has repeatedly been asked why Butler did
not call before him Mr. Hugh J. Hastings,
who haa publicly demanded a bearing.
We do not believe that be taut yet been
summoned ; but we find in the New York
Sun, which may account for tbo hesita
tion ol Butler to bring tail w lines for
ward :
It is reported from Washington that
General Duller' committee have summon
ed Hugh J. Hastings to testify with re
gard lo the alleged impeachment c irrup
tion ; but Mr. Hastings lias not yet re
ceived their subpiena. He openly regret
its failure to arrive, and declarca himself
anxious to appear and testify. We are,
of course, not aware what hi testimony
will really be ; but it can Us proved lltat
he positively and publicly affirm- that he
ia not only ready to wear that all hi el
fort in AVasbiilgton were in favor of con
viction, bat that kjr. Woolley told him
that the whiskey men were uot able to
roiM money to help the Preiident, because
"they had been obliged to pay so damn
edly to Butler and other prominent mem
bers of the House to keep the wbickey
tax at two dollars." The I ict tbat Mr.
Halting proposes togive evidence, of this
sort is another reason why he should be
summoned ta reality and cedily. He
performed a conspicuous part in Hi tcf
nam which have been published; and
and if
he presume to circulate report of an in
jurious nature respecting memver ot Urn
committee, we do not sue now iney can
afford to postpone hi examination under

KIND WORDS AND LOVINS

BBrely, there Is magic ta kind words
and loving smile. Ther are perfectly
electrical. Hashing from heart lo heart,
wreathing the face in smiles and scatter
ing sunshine, and happiness wherever We
ext.
Kind word and centle tone. springing
in all their native freshness and unsullied
purity, from a heart overflowing wit love
and charity to it fellow-cream res, are to
the weary heart like tbe summer' gentle

wounded, tamuibeu. soldier, dying on use
battle plain, and dear a the pciitleut tear
hi tbe lght of heaven.
Thev check tbe bitter angry retort,
ready to inflict an i wearable, wound aw
some sensitive, shrinking heart, and curb
down the angry passions just ready to
rent themselves, bad all unkind word
been spoken instead of tbe "soft answer
that tumeth away wrath."
Coald we but draw aside the veil and
gase upon the human heart it HcV ex
posed to the right of it maker, we would
often retract the harsh eenture; severe crit
icism, and uncharitable opinion, and -tend
the warm grasp of friendship and
mingle the kindly tear of sympathy tor
the one bo m t'd down by some bitter sor
row, unknown to the world, so ready to
stigmatise a cold, proud and selfish.
See yonder weary traveller ready to fal
ter hy the wayside. He set fcrth beoy
autly, hopefully with noWc sptasttans
and lofty ambition, bnt'tacked the moral
courage, the energy to overcome the trial.
temptations, and disappointment ot lite.
He is weary, heart-broken and ready to
despair for him there ia ne bright eheer

willing band of sympathy is sveicneo

park of coldness in hi breast he arises
with renewed sireheth and confidence in
himself and mankind and goes forth again
to battle with lifo and come forth crown
ed victor at last.
Kind words and loving smiles wield a
matchless influence over all, even child
hood's Sweat simplicity and loving trust,
can appreciate the power of kindness as
the little one glaacca lovingly into the
yes bent In' teuderhess upon it ; claps the
tin v hand and twines the dimpled arm
lovingly around the neck. Ah J who
could willingly chill that iweet young
heart and bring tear into those pure lov
ing ryes. -
Speak kindly to the erring, it may yet
lead him back to the path of virtue and
happiness; kindly to the lowly menial,
for their' ia a weary lot of toil at best;
and the rudest nature are keenly suscep
tible to the power of kindness, r.ven the
instinct et dumb nnnnars acauowicuge its
mighty power by yielding to kindness
ben harsh measures avail nothing.
Let us then awsy with anger, detrac
tion, and despondency, and erect the si
har oTTove, charity and faith. Instead
of nursing the selfishness in our owu
breast that magnifies petty cares ami Vt
artnuT niilit we become a source of annoy
ance to ourselves and other. Let as rath
er rxtraet the sweet of life in such proln
hm a i oiii.il, and mar rort the joyous pres
ent by an l iripaling to morrow s storms
that perchance may never come.
