nne in community. perhaps, is Obliged

one in community, perhaps, is Obliged
to witness its exhibition oftner, or endure
its infection more constantly than the
editor of a newspaper. People who itch
for noteriety, corporations who want their
backs scratched, travelling lecturers who
want tickling, all come to the editor, who
many times from pure good nature, and
many times for the sake of being rid OF
theirimportunities, gives them whattech-
nically known as a puff. But, eight
times out of ten, if reciprocal courtesy
which literally costs them nothing, they
don't ''see" it. They are the parties to be
favored, and that end gained, it is all sufii-
cient Now we protest against this sort
of thing. 1t is void of reason, justice, or
right. A kiss for blow is very good in
theory. but we have found from long
series of experiments, that it don't pay
in business trasactions.
We have not intended our above re-
marks to be taken in sweeping sense
Not bit of it. They are only directed
to particular class, and in general man.
ner Everybody whatever the position
they fill, have suffered from the absorb
ent qualities of these spongcs. of society
without being able to squeeze out much
in their turn, and in that peculiar suffer
ing we have had our share. We are sick
of it-heart sick. 1t dosen't pay in the
first place, and in the second place it isin't
pleasant te feel ones self the victim Of
imposition for its nothing else. Il destroy
es the feeling of independence, which every
one is entitled to possess, and we believe
VIC have as many rights as anybody else
But, yet, Notwithstanding the preponder-
ance of this element in many comm mi
ties, we are glad to put on record that, on
the other side, there are many good square
white men, whoappreciate and act upon
the doctrine that one good turn deserves
another. They understand that mankind
was made for mutual support, not for one-
sided swindling. They show at least
common gratitude for favors received,
and that is all we or anybody else can ask
- or we're not speaking for ourselves
alone. That their numbers may be in
creased aud wax great in the lands is the
prayer of suffering community.

Execution of Wirz,

Henry Wirz' the jailor of the oharnef
house of Andersonville, was executed in
Washington on Friday last in the Old
Capital Prison yard, in obedience to the
finding and sentence of the military com.
mission as approved by the President.
lie persisted to the last in denying that
he had wilfully starved, murdered or NAL
treated Union prisoners, although the tes-
timony on the trial was overwhelming and
cumulative to an extent that precluded
the possibility of doubts as to the iendish
chracter of the man. He gave to the re-
porters Of the press detailed account Of
his life, carefully embellished his good
traits, as though he dreaded the imputa-
tlon OF the unnatural crimes chaged against
him next to death His last letter was
written to one of his counsels just before
mounting the gallows, in which he appeal.
ed for assistance for his family. He said
in it that"it any one ought to come to the
relief of my family it is the people of the
South, for whom | have sacrificed all"
After his execution, his body was deliv-
cred to Father Boyle, his spiritual advis-
er, for interment. i g p
Thus has the creature of murderous
treason atoned for the monstrous atroci-
ties which doomed twenty thousand Un-
ion prisoners to loathsome disease, linger-
ing starvation and death but where are
his principles? The record of the trial of
Wirz shows that he was araigned, tried
and convicted for Combining" confedera-
sting and conspiring together with JEFF
''ferson Davis, James A. Seddon. Howell

unknown, to injure the health and de.

"seryicc of the United States, then held
and being prisoners Of war;" &c. Up
on this charge Wirz was. found gull
ty-not guilty merely of numbering I'm.
ion prisoners himself, but guilty of ''coin-
bining, confederating and .conspiring to-
gcther" with Davis, Seddon and others
to accomplish the deliberate murder of
prisoners of war This finding the presi-
dent approves with the sentence, and up
on this record, sanctioned by court mar
tial and approved by the highest officer
of the Government, the poor creature
the miserable tool of the chief murderers,
is executed. What shall be the fate
of his principals? When and how will
they be. tried3 Is justice to be satisfied
by the punishment ofan irresponsible sub

Let us Understand.

Among the amendments to the Consti-
tuition which the Jeffersonians of eighty
years since deemed essential to the securi-
ty of public liberties and personal rights
was the following:
"Art. H. A well regulated militia be-
ing necessary to the security of free
State, he right Of the people TO keep and
bear arms shall not be infriaged." J"
When our great war closed, it was deem
ed advisable that the soldiers of the I'm
ion should be allowed to retain the arms
they had so nobly borne, on condition of
the payment by each of what was consid-
cred by the Government their cash value.
An order was accordingly issued from the
War Department profieriug to each hon
orably discharged soldier the privilege of
purchasing his weapon on the payment
of that sum, (s5, We believe.) So said,
so done until now, on the representation
of the ex-Rebels of Louisiana, ten. Can
by has nullified Mr.. Stanton's order, di.
recting that the Colored soldiers mustered
out of service ia his department (l.ouisi-
anal shall notbe allowed to buy their mus.
kets! We presume the Secretary vii
direct the satrap to mind his eye; but
meantime the Black soldiers will be mus
ttered out and dispersed and the reitera-
fon OF the original order will practically
amount to nothing.
l"The wicked fee when no man pursu-
etl." The uegro-haters at the South have
settheir hearts on having Black iusur-
recton. They may fail but it will not
be fer want of diligence and determina-
ton. Thus, in the South Carolina House
of Assembly, Mr. Leitner of Kershaw has
moved tSat the Judiciary Committee do
proceed.
"To take into consideration the fact
that Numerous arms of various descrip-
tons, and ammunition in considerable
quantities, are in the possession of the
free negroes of South Carolina and that
said Committee be instructed to recon-
mend, if possible, tvthis House, the adop-
tion of such measures as viii secure the
| folhwing results:
/ "9rst-The rendition ofsuch arms and
ammunition as are now in the hand of
said Tree negroes to the proper authorities
of the State.
| "Sccond-As will secure the punish
nent Of those persons who, in the future
shall barter Or in any wise furnish arms
aud ammunition to said free negroes.
