A CONTRAST.

Since the Acknowledgement of the SER
vile population of the Southern States, NO
one can fail noticing the contrast in the
tone and spirit of the Southern press. and
the radical journals Of the North. Notwith.
standing the act IF emancipation has le-
daeedtn absolute want thousands who were
reared ~ %afiueuce, we perceive but little
OF dsspondei'cy or repiling. but. on the
contrary q disposition to bear the infection
with equanimity, and to repair. as fur as
possible. the late fortunes and deyastations
of the late fratricidal strife.
To effect this desirable object. tile press
OF the South. with unanimous consent,
raises its voice for peace and cancellation,
and for harmony and reciprocal Kindness
between the two races, which are now ub-
United equal in natural rights. Calmly and
dispassionately the Southern press discus
SEES questions that have forced themselves
npon the pnblic MUD in the adoption Of
new and untried MISUNDERSTANDING to
mitigate the evils attendant upon the sud
den change OF status conferred uron the
negro--to remedy his constitutionaIly inn
prosident habits, and to direct his euetgiss
lnto a productive channel. There is gen
'yWPdIhy uldulIeSteQ toward those
who were everwhile members of Southern
iiausfholds. but u~neducated and heretofore
destitute of responsibility concerning their
future support, This sympathy is mani
tested through the Southern press in laud-
abie endeayurs to yameliorate their condi-
tion-in a thoughtful care for those who
have no care for themselves.
On the contrary. we find in the ultra
r dical Journals of ths Northern States, d
tone OF bitterness and hostility toward the
Waite population OF the South-infaInma-
CRY speeches Of aspiring demagogues.
whom 9 mistaken idea of their patriotism
had dignified with offices which they dis
graced; and dogmatical appeal to South
frn citizens in regard to their fraterniza-
non with a race but just emerged from
Dondags-but not a word Of advice to this
ialser class in regard8to the good deport-
ment toward those who alone ara Selections
s"S ms future welfare. Could the designs

CHRISTIAN community Of the North, d war
on races would be iDaugarated rivaliny fine

Public Men and the Press.

Public men always appreciate the press
when they set out in their career. Most Of
them are obliged to establish press to.
sound their praise. It. is indispensable TO-
small polilicians-a convenience TO large
ones. Jackson, Calhoun, Adams, Benton,
Clay, and Van Buren each had newspaper
known as his organ. Fremont, Lincoln,
Banks and Blair have had theirs. In these
days, most newspapers are independent, ex.
cept SO far as they enjoy public patronage.
But no establishment has been so badly
msused as the press. Public men in these
days use the press as ladder upon which
to climb and then kick it from under them.
They don; like to acknowledge they climbed
by any ladder. If they assembled TO any
considerable height, they like to have the
people think they have always been up there.
They do not like to talk about such vu gar
empIoymen,s as climbing a ladder. Least
of all do they like to talk of a newspaper in
their neighborhood which gave them conse-
quence in the eyes of the people. White
men are curious creatures. They are smart
in some things; very dull in others. But in
one thing they all agree. Public men sell
dom acknowledge their obligations TO the
press.
