BG" The following remarks, taken from
the New Orlc.u Delta, will, We believe
apply To every section of cur cluntrv /:
Some Of our csizens have blen uniustlv
charged with iuilclity To tie government
and, on mere iuHors. or utterly INSULT
ciunt grounds, subjected tU modification
and Insult We have heard of several
Instances ct such conduct Oh the part Of
iIAeMfccklcss and thuughtless tlat are
sl,nc1ciul and outrageous. There seems
tB@hu prUncnCSs uu the part VI certain
violent, cxcitab,c aud needless people, to
create aud foster the very suspicion, which
all good citizens should desire 10 see dis
couutenauced, that there exist traitors and
bad citiz0us i'll our midst Nothing il
mere necessary for our safety, our peace
and orr future, than that onr people should
present themselves as uuit in lhe present
condition IF our affairs.
The man who seeks to divide us now is
truly great enemy to our city. The
man who encourages broIls and personal
disputes j. bad and dangerous man,
whose crime aud baseness will never be
forgotten by our people. There j. no re
ward or favor that will ever compensate
him for the curses ard hate which will
pursue him throughout life. Let Us, then,
exercise charity, forbearance aud conf
dence towards our own people, creditiEg
no charges of bad conduct against any
one which do not rest upon good aud
substantial grounds and upon satisfactory
evidence. Let us abstain from circulating
idle rumors and scandals, duplicating onr
fellow w-citizens, or from asking questions
which frequently give rise TO these scan
dals."
