Southern Effort-EaOw 10 a. DiscOur.

From the New York Times (Rep) Sept. 10.
There are great many SoutherneIs in .hi.
city trying TO make arrangements for a resump
ton OF business. As general thing their con.
duct is manly, frank and sensible-calculated to
win the confidence and respect Of every generous
and just community. Five ia every ten OF then
have been utterly ruined by the rebellion. Mos
Of them cast their fortunes into the struggle fol-
a cause which they believed to be right, but
which they see and acknowledge TO have been
fatally and finally defeated. They have lost po-
stion, influence. property, children, friends
everything which makes life desirable. Under
such circumstances, weak men sink down into
AFFECT despair, or drag out the rest of their lives
in the safe obscuFitY OF foreign lands. The de
feated Southerners meet their calamity in a more
manly style They show in their defeat, as they
did il their struggle-courage desperate tenacity
of purpose, aud that high spirited readiness 10
meet all the responsibilities of their conduct
which never fails to comm md the respect of the
world
Ii may not seem wholly in keeping with this
courageous temper, that quite a number of these
persons, on reading the speech of the Hon. Thad
Stevens, have abandoned their business projects
and gone home discouraged. They say they
cannot face the desolation which his plans pro
posed for the South. They cannot put their farms
again in order, clear them of their incu mbrancss
rebuild their ruined dwellings, plant fresh crops
and get new start in life for their chilsren and
themselves. with the prospect, at any moment
oil seeing the whole swept away by ruthless
coBhscation. They cannot work with heart or
hope while such sword is hanging over their
heads

General siocum'. Dsuocracyt

The Republicans seem TO be in a profound
qusndary in determining what course is best 20
pursue with regard TO the abduction o.; General
Socum by the Democratic party. Availability
is the main thing with the politicians. and the
Republican leaders seem 10 have grave doubts
about success against the strong ticket submit
ted by the Democracy, particularly in view Of
the division in their own party on the suffrage
question. The great Mogul of the party. Thur
low Weed, thinks the Democracy have got q
very good ticket and a capital platform The
radical Goliath, Mr. Greeley, sees objection
TO placing two OF the Democratic candidates on
the Republican ticket; and some of the minor
politicians appear TO think that they had better
adop, platform, ticket aud all. General Siocum
is a Republican, they claim. and SO are two or
three other candidates on the Democratic ticket;
therefore. why not cheek mate the Democrats
by stealing part OF their tickstl This talk
about General SiOcum aud Mr.. Robin
son being Republican, is all humbug
Is does not follow that because General
slocum WIS q Republican four years ago, that
he is the same now General Butler was Dem
