BILL ARP" PEELs THE BARK erP The
CHATTANOOGA GAZETTE.
"B1LL ARP."-The latest aspirant in the
arena Of comic (?) literature has written a.
letter published in the Nashville Republ:.
can Of Sunday, in which he indulges 10
considerable growing at some things which
as'hot svit him in the reconstruction of the
country. Perhaps he has right'to do it,
but:we submit, Bill, that your attempts a.
"harmonzing" are not likely to succeed,
while you are indulging in such terms as
calling the Union men Of the South Ito
ries" and "sink hearted fellows" and the
Union yen Of abe North "black republican
pups: Because you could not kill off
"your enemies as last as they were impo,-
ted, is no reason why you should keep up
an i'll feeling. which true men are trying TO
smooth down. Do you expect to better
the matter by the use Of such language rs
this:
@Pm thankful ain. a black republican
pup. I'm thankful that 'Thad Stevens and
Summer and Phillips nor none of their Elm
| amt no kin to ne. I'm thankful for the
high privilege Of hatin all SUCH"
You undoubtedly have the privilege of
hating whom you please, bu, will qaietuess
ever come while you and those Of your
friends who hate as you do gve such ex.
preston to their feelings. Again you ely:
"Wel', if the war is over. what's the use
OF f'lin up our towns aud cities with col
diers any longer. Where's your, rekou-
st'uktion that tbe papers say is going on so
rapidly !"
"Then what's the soldiers here for
what good are they aoin-who wants to
see EN- any longer. EverybotlS \ is tired
OF the war aud we don't want ID see any
more signs of it. The niggers ont want
EN- and tue white men don't want 'em aud
for the wimmtn-whoopee." -
Let Us ask you question: Who brought
the ssldier into your towns and cities 2 In
another place you use the following Ian
gaage: -
