It was certain that the carpet-baggers, with the morsl support of the General Government and tho faullost uso of United States troops that a straining of the Constitation would warraat, did not and could not protect tho blacks. Then thers was nothing to loso and everything to gain In romitting the Btate Governments to men who certainly have the power, and who most solomnly pledge their falth, to assure tho protection the carpet- baggers failed to give, ‘Tho fallacy of the whine the Implacsbles are making consists in rogarding all the peo- ple of Louisians and South Carolina ss bull- dozers who did not voto for Pacxahp or Cmanprnzary at tho last election, A couple of years sgo a Committeo of the United Statcs Benato (Republican) discovered, in investigating tho affairs of Mississippi, that the oatrages had Lecn committed mainly by and that tho worst that can happen would still have happened it thoy had sigued tho protocol, Thercforo, thoy say, it 18 botter to ‘o compolled to grant and guarantoe reforms than to allow outsido Powers to Interfors with our intornal affairs, ond wo will go .ahead and fight as desperately na wo cau, and 1 we aro whipped wo sliall only hava to sur- ronder what {4 alresdy demanded by the pro- tocol, Tho procedents of Russo-Turkish wars givo them some warrant for such n theory, ‘lurkey has met with no decided torritorial loss to Russin since tho days of CaTmAniNe, In her enmpalgn of 1774, Russin sccured the free navigation of the Black Bea and the Danube, and posscssion of the Crimea, In 1812, the Ozar Nicuoras obtained the Bes- sarablan strlp. In 1837, although Iiussia penotrated tho Turkish territory clear to Adrianople, and thore dictated terms of peaca which wera intonded for the acquisi. tion of territory, Turkey only lost Greece, which secured hor independence; and after tho Crimean war Russia bad to give up Bes- sarabls, which is now occupled by the north. ern army, In addition to these precedents and Russian declarations, Turkey also has the hope that, if Russla shows any tendency to appropriata territory, England and Austria will combine to prevent it. ‘The Turks, howsver, may find thomselves a3 badly deludod in theso hopes as they wera in the expectation that Russia would not fight at all.

That treaty gave to Russih the protectorats of the Greek Ohurch in Turkey sud tho guardianship of the prin- cipalities north of the Danube, to which she will add the guardisnship of those to the south.
