dependence, wesconfess our inability
toscomprehend the philosophy Of it
We are unable 10 understand Why a
imam worth twenty thousand dollars
lis any more 81 atraitor, Or deserving
| Of q mere severe punishment, than
! the man worth nineteen thousandnin
hundred. If the Presidents idea is
that the war was brought on ID the
first instance, and contested so Stub
tbornly to its close, principally by the
rich, he rnanifests an ignorance on the
subject utterly .unpardonable IN one
who has had opportunities. for inform
ling himself thoroughly on the sub
iject. The most violent agitators at
THE South for many years prior to the
war were not the men Of property,
but men IN poor or moderate cireum-
stances aud then1en who fought this
.sft FtDnsst
war through, before whose heavy
blows the men Of the North fell like
Autumn leaves, were the poor men Of
the South, the ''bone and sinew Of
| the land.' It is they who are emit:
tiled to the gloryof the struggle, and
! they donot shrink from their full share
| of the odium their conqnerors attach
teit, or Of the punishment they have
ordained for il.
In all penal acts the reformation of
Fthe criminal should be considered as
well as his punishment for the crimes
he has committed. In dealing with
those who participated in the rebel
Ehon," it should be as much the desire
!of tho government tomakc good and
fpeaceable citizens of them, as to
deter them By punishment from en-
gaging in another enterprise Of the
kind, Now, if the President de-
sired to make Discontinued, turbulent
land disloyal citizens Of The Southern
people, he could not adopt q better
Eplan than. to take from them their
property, and carry out his favor:te
|plano of "ilnpoverishing,' those whom
he is pleased to call the leaders of
tie rebellion" Sincerely DESTROYS Of
pacifying the South. and restoring
once more the reign Of peace and
harmony, we hope the President may
| yet consent to a modification of a
clause Of his proclamation, which
operates SO heavily upon a large class
fof our people.
Our IDEAS of the policy Of the gov
ernment towards the people Of the
South ore we'll known, as we have
never made any concealment Of them.
The "Act of Oblivion" has, pacifed
tGreat Britain for more than two hun
tdred years, while the execution Of
the Hungarian patriots sowed the
seeds of discomfort throughout the
Austrian Empire, which cannot fail
/ to cause another insurrection at no
distant day. A mild and humane
policy now would forever bind these
States together, and heal the unhap.
tpy dissensions between the two peo-
tples, which the events Of the last
four years have unfortunately pro-
lduced.
