Sienker llluliie'N Letter to Kenntor
Niiinner.
Wa.ihinoton, August 2.
The following letter was handed lo Sen
ator Sumner to-day :
Artii'STA, Me., Jnlv IS, 1872.
Eton, Chas. Sumner, Culled Stales Senator:
DhabSih : Your lctterpuhllsheil in the
paiicrs of ibis morning will ereate pro
found Mia and regret among your former
iiii lunl friends thronghont Sew England.
Your power to injui-e General Grant was
exhausted tn your remarkable Bpoech in
the senate. V om power lo injure yomnelf
was not fully exorcised until you announc
ed your open alliance with Southern seces
sionists in their eilorts to destroy the Rc
pnbltam party of the nation, i lmve hut
recently read, with much interest a cir
cnmslantiui and minuteaccouiit, given by
you in the fourth volume of our works,
of the manner in which von 'were struck
down in the Senate chamber in m; for de
fending the rightsof the negro. The Dem
ocratic party throughout the South, and,
:n cording lo your own showing, to some
extent the North also, approved of that
assault upon you. Mr. Toombs, of Geor
gia, openly announced his approval of it in
the Senate, find Jefferson Davis, four
moii i lis after ii s occurrence, wrote a letter
to Smiili Carolina in fulsome eulogy of
Brooks for having so near laken your life.
It is side lo Say thut every man in the
South who rejoiced over the attempt to
murder you was afterw ard found in rebel
lious conspiracy lo murder the nation. It
is still safer to say that every one of thcni
who survives Is tnwkry your" fellow lnliorcr
in Hnpporl of llontcc (ifcelcy.
In IS'ill lie would indeed have heena rash
prophetwho predicted yotlr nlllance, six
teen years after, with Messrs. TtMrtulisanil
I 'avis in i heh elt'orts to reinstate their own
parly In power. In all fho startling muta
tions Of American notifies nothing so mar
velous has ever isnirreil as the I'eliow "ship
of Robert Toombs, Jefferson Davis "and
Charles Sunnier in a joint effort lo drive
the KepuMlcan party from power, mid
hand over the (invein'mcni tothepntel ical
control of those, who ho recently sought lo
destroy It. It is of no avail tor you to take
refuget bind n Republican record. Horace
Greeley conceding for the sake of argu
ment, as I do not in fact believe tlml Hor
ace Greeley wonld remain llrm In his Re
publican principles would be powerless
agalnsi the Oongivss thai would come into
power with him in (he eveut of his elec
tion. We have had a recent and siriking
Illustration, In the ease of Andrew John
son, of Hie inability of a President to en
forceaiKillcy Or even a measure against
the will of i'ongtx'ss. What moil! power
would there Is' in Horace Greeley to en
force a Relniblitfln policy against it Dcmo
cntie Congress I ban there was in Mr. John
son to enforce a Democratic policy against
a Republican Congress'- and, besides, Hor
ace Greeley has already in bis letter of ac
ceptance taken ground practically against
the Republican doctrine so often enforced
by yourself oft lie duty of the National
Government to secure the rights of every
eitlsen to the protection of life, person and
property,
in Mr. Greeley's letter accepting the Cin
cinnati nomination he pleases a 11 the Kn
Kluxin the South by repeating the Dem
ocratic cant about "local self-government
and in good reliel luirlance against central
ization, aud dually declaring that there
shall lie no Federal subversion of Hie in
ternal policy of I be several States mid mu
nicipalities, but that each shall be left tree
to enforce their rights and promote the
well-lieingofits inhabitants by suclimcups
as the judgment of its ow n people shall
prescribe. The meaning of all this, in
plain English, is, no matter bow the color
ed citizens of the South may lie abused,
wronged and oppressed, Congress shall not
interfere for their protection, but leave
them to the tender mercies of local self
government administered by white rebels,
Iloyou.asn friend of the colored man, ap
prove ofthe posii ion of Mr. Greolcy? You
cannot forget, Mr. Sumner, how often dur
ing the last session of Congress you con
ferred wilh me in regard to the possibility
of having your Civil rights hill passed by
the House. It was introduced by your
personal friend, Mr. Hooper, and nothing
prevented its passage by the House ex
cept the rancorous and factious hostility
of the Democratic mouthers. If I have
correct 1) examined tile (Jfce, the Demo
cratic members on seventeen different oc
casions resisted the passage ofthe Civil
Rights hill hv the piiriiiinicnlury process
known as tilllbustcriiig. They would not
even allow it to come ton vote. Two In
telligent colored members Irom south ( ar-
olina Elliott and Ramey Is'ggedot the
rw,mitlfl side ot the House to allow un
civil Rights hill to lit' voted on, anil they
wciv answercu with a ueiiiaiso nosouue
that it amounted toa imlnfui Jeerol the
rights of the eofored man. anil now yon
lend vour voice and ihtlueiice to the re
election of these Democratic members who
are co-operaiing won yuu siiii
Mr Greettty. I vou not Know, air. wum
nCr. and will von' not, as a nindiit man,
acknowledge that, with these men in
power in 1ongress, tuc iiiusiu uwiwi
ed men are alwolurely sacrlflced s tar as
those rights depend on Federal leglslut ion?
still forther, the rigiits of colored men
lathi country are secured, if secured at
ill bv the three grcui ioiimii miu
amendments, the Thirteenth, Fourteenth
and Fifteenth. Togive these amendments
full eope and effect, legislation by t'on
rrrcss is imperii! ivclv required, as you huve
so often and so eloquently demonstrated.
Hut the Democratic )rty are on record
in the most conspicuous manner against
any legislation ontliesnMoet, It wasonly
In "the month of February lust that my
e( llragne, Mr. Peters, offered a resolution
hi the House of Reprosentat Ives affirming
ii... viiililiiv of the Constitutional amend
ments, nnd of such a reasonable legislation
of Congress as may lie necessary to make
them in their letter and spirit the most
influential. This resolution is very mild
and guarded, as you will sec, and was
adopted bv 124 yeas to W nays. On ly eight
ot the yeas wereiteinocratifi. All the nays
were Democratic. The resolution of Mr.
Peters was followed a wink later by one
offered by Mr. Stevenson, of Ohio, as fol
lows :
R miviil. That we recognise as valid uhd
binding all the existing laws jwssod hv
Congress for the enforcement 0 the Thir
teenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
ments Of the Constitution of the Cnited
states, and for the protection of citizens
in their rights under the Constitution as
amended,
(In a vote upon this resolution there
wore 107 yeas to 64 nays. All Hie yeas
were Repuolican, and they are now unan
imous in their support of General Grant.
All the nn vs were Democrats, whonro now
equally unanimous in their support of Mr.
Urecley.
It is idle to affirm, as some Democrats
did hi the resolution offered by Mr. Brook,
of New York, that "Theseamendmeiitsarv
vnlld rts of t he ( 'onstit in ion," enlqHff k s
the same man, on the same day, voted that
the provisions of those amendments
should not. he enloitfd bv Conuressional
' lei? s utton. Tlic amendments ai-e oni
sounding brass and tinkliiiK cyuibals to
the colored man until Congress makes'
i them effective aud practical. Nay, more,
i If the rights of the colored manure to be
1 left lo the legislation of the Southern States
! without Congressional Intervention, he
j would, under Democratic Administration,
be deprived of : he right of suffrage in less
than two years, and lie would be lucky if
he escaped some form of chattel sin very or
lKindage, and in proof of Ibis danger, I
might iiiio'.evolnroesnf wisdom and warn
ing from the speeches of Charles Sumner.
When, therefore, von joliif out lo the
colored men (hut thfll' rights Will lie safe
In the hands of the Democratic purty.yon
delude and mislead thcpi. 1 do not say
willfully, bill none the less really. The
small bnndfull of Republicans coinimrei!
With the Whole moss who unite w it h your
self and Mr. Greeley in going over to the
Democratic party cannot leaven that lump
of iMi'dticiil soundness, even if you preserve
your own original principles. The Ad
ministration of Mr. Greeley, should be Iw
elected, would be In whole and in detail
Democratic, and you would he coiupelleU
logo with Hie current, or repent nnd turn
buck when too lute to mend the evil you
bad done. Youi argument that Horace
Greeley does nol become Democratic tiy
receiving Democratic votes, illustrating it
by analogy of your own election to the
Senate, is hntilly pertinent. The point is
nol wluvt Mr. Greeley will become person
ally, hut what will fH' the complexion of
the great legislative branch of the liov
ernuieilt, with all its vast and coiitroling
power. You know very well, Mr. Sumner,
that if Mr. Greeley is elected President.
Congress Is banded over to ibe control of
the jnirly who have persistently denied
the rights of Hie black num. What course
you will pursue towards the colored man
Is of small consequence after yon have
transferred the power of ilti) (im ernuient
to bis enemy. The colored men of tilts
country are not, as it class, enlightened,
but i Key have wonderful Instincts, and
when they read your letter they will know
that at a great crisis in their fate you de
serted them. ChnrlesSiinmcretwiperallng
with jenerson iiavisisnoi i lie same v;nus.
Sumner they liavc bltherto idolized, any
more i ban Horace Greeley, cheered to the
echo in Tammany Hall, is the same Horace
Greeley whom Republicans have hitherto
trusted. The black men of Hie country
will never lie ungrateful for what you liuv e
done lor them in t he past, nor in the bit
terness of their hearts will they ever for
get that, heated mid blinded by personal
hatred of one man, vou turned "your liuek
on the millions to wlinm in tlic past years
you have stood as u shield and bulwark of
defense.

"Uncle Horace" can say a true

The movements of Messrs. Sumner
and Banks are alarming the Greeley
Democrats of the South. Thus tlic

many Republicans to join the imrty

August Belmont says the Democracy
must endorse Greeley or die. An Afri
can clergyman, in a fervid sermon
once exclaimed : " Iiredrin Da is
two roads de one leads to perdition,
and de Oder to damnation, which will
ye take?" Isn't Belmont's alterna
tive very like ?
We learn with pleasure that quite a
number of the Democratic leaders
have resolved to push B.GratZ Brown,
the new Governor of Missouri, for
next President. We do not see how
they could better this choice. Grata

must have been a remarkiuile lucid

following, to-wit: "The Cincinnati

and the other mortally wounded Gree
