Southern Corunron,iscs.

Demand al, yfed noshing, the motives which
govern our southern brethren, and they nploar to be
satisfied with nothing hut entire concession TO all
they require. In the Congressional contest this win
ter victory IN every instance has crowned their Efforts
Their threats thus far have been 'all sound and
furv signfying nothing" bot have yielded abund-
ant harvest.
They have the speaker of the House. n compost
tion ct the committees in both tine Senate and the
House to meet the peculiar views of their sectional
interests, and al last by outrageous Abandonment
Of all hunnra5le party ties and associations have
ceeded IN elecling southern Wing clerk of the pop
ular branch. To the democratic nominee, Col. Fvr-
hes. not an objection could be raised on either the
If ability sectional bias by tie southern dem
ocratS, as Cnl. T. has distinguished himself for an
advOracy OF southern principles-yet for M other
than geographical objection against him and the
same argument in favor of Mf Clmpbell, eight
southern democrats were found willing to abandon
oil tie obligations of party, and DC influenced solely
by sectional interests and considerations.
These arrogant claiHs, aud the abSudDnment by
the South of all olher than local interests IN Legsla-
tion must eventually. and trust speedily, force
the North into Just consideration of her rights aud
at !easi equnl participation in the benefits and
the emoiumengs of the government. Possessing the
strength it needs only united actiun TO make her
power felt. If fellv southern interests is by the
South to be made test fr party governmental fi
vnr-we hope t'Gt the North will hereafter be her
competitor in demanding allegiance to her interests
