CAROLINA. The Radical and the Democratic View of Impeachment. igh Opposition of the Radicals to the Measure—Yo Fierce Democracte on Impeachment—Views and Arguments Pro and Con—Political Outrages and How They are Managed—The Recent Barn Burnings—Startling Disclosures— Prominent Republicans and Loyal Leaguers Involved—The Constitutional Convention—The Governor's Council. RaLEtar, N. ©., Dec. 22, 1870, Both the political parties here view the impeach- ment of Governor Holden through their own peca, lar spectacles, and, of course, see it in quite a dif- ferent light, Both are full of party prejudices and party antmosities—it may be sald, bitter hatred of each other—and while one party demands tne im. peackment as an act of justice, the other denounces at as an unqualified outrage. During a sojourn here of two weeks, and in visits to various portions of the State, Ihave thoroughly canvassed the sense of all classes upon this one important subject. As seen from a RADICAL STANDPOINT ‘the impeachment 1s regardeu as nothing more nor Jess than @ vindictive rebel outrage, superinduced ‘by personal animosity against the Governor because of his unionism tn the trying times of the war, and ‘his subsequent course as a loval man and a repubil- Can. Partisans of this class justify the Governor in his mllitary programme last summer, though they hardly justify many of the arrests, imprisonments and the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, They argue somewhat as follows:—During the ses- sion of the Legislature of 1868-9, when that boay ‘was largely republican, a bill was passed known as. the ShoMer Insurrectionary act, which au- thorized the Governor to declare counties in a state of insurrection, when, in hid estimation, lawless- ness demanded it. Another bill, known as the Mill- tary act, was also passed, empowering the Execu- tive to raise armies for the suppression of insurrec- tion or for the purpose of repelling invasion. Under these laws the Governor acted when midnight out- rages in the counties of Alamance and Cas- well became intolerable, and though he may possibly have exceeded hia authority in de- uying to the prisoners the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, yet in every other respect he had the law on his side, nor can he be convicted of the arti- cles presented against him, More moderate repub- Nicans censure the Governor, but think that it was neither justice ner policy of the democracy to 1m- peach him, as they can possibly gain nothing by tt, but, on the contrary, stir up great deal of il! teel- mg and bad biood. Viewed from a DEMOCKATIC STANDPOINT, tmpeachment was the only remedy by which the greatest criminal of the age in which he lives—w, W. Hoiden—could easily be got at, and a lasting black sugma placed against his name in the history of the State he so foully betrayed. ‘They pro- ceed to rebut in detail all the arguments of the radicals—declaring that the Shoifner In- surrectionary act and the Military act, both of which, they allege, were planned by senator Pool, Governor Holden and Judge settie, of the State Supreme Court, were clearly unconstitutional, @ad have since been repealed. ‘that there was any msurrection in either oi the counties of Alamance or Caswell they emphitically deny; nor was there any lawlessness that could not have beca suppressed by the civil authorities, tae courts being ar the time Mm full operation. But what cnieay zrousea tne ire or the democrats was the midmght invasion of the People’s homes, the arrests, assaults upon and im- prisonment of citizens against Whom there was not the shadow of u charge; the extortion of conles- sions by tortures, such as the hangman's rope, the pistol muzzie placed to the head, and the tanmb- screw, und, last of all, the crowning act of infamy, the refusal to allow the law to inquire into the cause of the detention of these prisoners by denying them the sacred privilege of the habeas corpus. At the recital of these wrongs democratic blood in North Carolina boils, and the mnore flery, insiead of the plodding of an impeach- ment trial, say that the gibbet itself 1s too geod for the wretch who inaugurated the terrors of last sumer, Whici extended over the entire State at tbe time, Ibis weil known that the eutive mpeach- ment squabble had its origin in POLITICAL OUTRAGES, the particutar use of which the radicals were more thorougiily posted in than their democratic friends. If outrages did uot occur im due season to meet the exigeuces of radical poutlciuns they had to be gotten up, and, beyond # question of doubt, they were so govten up in this State. Half the outrages attributed to the Ku Kiux were perpetrated by negroes in dls- guise, representing themseives to be Ku Klux, as VWwsttmopy on record in some of the courts of the State will show. But while the radical peliticaus Inude a constant and harassing display of all the outrages comuuitied by the democrats, the latter rareiy went beyond a passing notice of the radical outrages. Within the past lew days ao thorough system of murder and arson has been developed in this very county, where a large number of barns have been recenil, burned by negroes, Known to be- Jong to the Loyal League. One negro on his death- bed confessed that be was a member of a gang of forty who were sworn to burn all the barns in the county, and he even went so far as to name the purticular memb: of this gang to whom the work of incendlartsm was entrusted. Four negroes, who were arrested in the act of firing a gentieman’s barb, have confessed their guilt, and imake some starUing disclosures involving repavli- cans of prominence, Who wear white skins, HE BARN BURNINGS. ~ The followmg letter from a gentieman tn the country to one liere tn the culy will give some insight into these dark deed New Hii, Wake county, Dee. 20, 1870. ‘There is great excitement in this portion’of Wake.

City Transit—The Difficulty tu the Way. To THE Epitor oF THe HERALD:— The problem of cheap and swiit city transit, by steam, has engagea the attention of our citizens, earnestly, for the past ten years, and yet awalis so- lution. Many schemes have beon proposed—ingenious, skilful, and offering every apparent guarantee of success, yet none are in practical execution. Year by year the pressure for improvement has increased ag the totally Inadequate means of present transit afe felt—the public voice and the public press are a ‘unit on the subject. Any amount of money has been expended, and any amount more ts still ready to se- cure the object, and yet we are, apparently, no nearer the attainment of the great end than when we began. We are nearer, perhaps, 50 far as the discussion of plans ts concerned, but, apparently, no nearer the actual execution of any plan. I desire in this article briefly to point out the causes of our failurejthus far, and hereafter, if you will permit me, in another article, to suggest the method of their effectual remeval. Those causes which have veen at the bottom of all our defeats are two—the hostility of our city rall- roads to any scheme which threatens thelr interests; ana, second, the rivairy and hostility towards each other ef the different schemes proposed, To persons outside of politics and rings and the ways of legislation this may not be so easily under. stood; but it is very plain to persons conversant with them. No legislation pays like railroad legis- lauion, The fight for charters for city railroads—un- derground, overground, arcades and what not—has cost more money, in working up and defeaung plans, in supporting lobbies and corrupting legisia- tures, than would pay the interest for ren years on the cost of any available plan if carried into exccu- tion, Yet de cat, and and not execution, 1s all that has been accomplished. ‘The policy of the city raliroads has always been an adroit one. Taking no attitude of open nostility to any scheme, they ave watched closely the con- test of each with itS rcads and have never failed to come in at the opportune moment and give the ala needful to insure defeat in their own interest. Or, 1f the pressure has beep so great that # bill of some kind must pass, they Have joined its opponents in loading it down with provisions, which insured its falling still-born into the Statute Book. It is thus that the “Central Underground Railroad Company,” after vexing the Legisiature for ten years and re- ceiving @ charter, has remalued @ dead letter ever sluce, A few other illustrattons must sumee. In 1868 what was Known as the Three Tier bill passed the Assembly with but one dissenting vote. It fated in the Senate. A rival scheme lid the unanimous vote of the Senate, but faiied in the House. The next year neither sueceeded in either branch, and yet the bulls were the same and their merits the same then as before, But the Broadway Arcade had appeared on the 81 With more money aud influence, and hence the loss of favor, This newcomer took all rivals by the throat, and they In turn seized it, and in the death-hug tuat followed all went down to- gether. Last year the fight was renewed half a dozen contestants, = Tne Areade mana vo sqneeze through, but ina form made so od.ous by its enemies that we were saved its infliction only by the Execu. tive vet And again the Legisiature adjourned and nothing was accom plishe ‘The key to atl thy contests is easily found. Any charier, feasible in tts terms, which gives to its owners a monopoly of carrying the people of this city up and down town by steam for an undefined term of years is & mine of wealth, richer and more exhaustiess than the mines of Golconda, and every charter seeker perectly understands it. Hence this straggle. Nor are the interests of the people in any wise con- sidered beyond what the merest expediency de- mands. Thus one bill, nearly passed, gave an ex- clusive monopoly to the company, free trom all com- petition, for one hundred years. Another modestly xed the limit of charge for each passenger to “* not exceeding fifteen cents’’—than which nothing could be more mischievous, for cheap as well as quick transit is the first and last necessity of this city, ‘The Legislature 18 again about t J ready the schemers aro alert, aud we old faces and new ones once more in the field. the disheartening history Of past sessions repeat 1t- self? Shall we see that body exhaust another winter in useless Wrangling over contiicting interests, and again adjourn and nothing done We certainly shall Wuless the people and pres: speak out and demand a new solution of this vexed question. That solution already suggests Uself. Let all. pri- yate schemes and monopolies be set aside, aud let this work be dove by the cl self, not in the intere esis of any company, but solely 10 the tuterest of her own people, In another article and in few words I will attempt to show that it is the legitumate and proper work of the city, as a corporotion, t open the avenues and provide for the usit @f its citizens, ana that it 1s n the last degree dangerous to turn this business over to any monopoly or privace luterest whatever, co To THE Eptror ov THe HeKALp:— Mayor Hail, in his message to the Common Coun- cil, June 7, 1869, caled particular attention to the “rapid transit problem.” He sata among other things, “long ago we should have become able to say that New York Island was thirty minutes in- stead of twelve miles long.” He particularly urged the Common Council to agitate the subject, and said:—“The plan which promises to give immediate relief is the plan to be assisted by ua. Again, in his letter to Mr. Foley on the 19th inst., he “that the question of transit isa question of ¢ tal; that he has reliable information in re, capitalists who are willing to subscribe the money to build a viaduct ratiway, Now, as Mayor Hall reads the papers, he must be aware that not oniy have capitatists been found who are willing to sub scribe, if a charter is guaranteed to them, but that they have already expended a very large sum of money in building and puiting in opera- lion ‘a section ef ‘ratiway “uuiler Broadway, which ht been — visited and ~~ approved by over 200,000 people.
