RECUPERATION.

Thst the people of the South are endowed
With great powers of endurance late events
have shown. That they possess much Of the
kindred virtue Of recuperatiou, is now being
demonstrated. The rapidity with which the
leading lines Of railroad have been put in
working order, after the thorough dismant-
ling that all of them underwent, is one OF the
evidences of their capacity for quick re-
eoYery. Any person who passed 'hs0ugn the
States OF Virginia, the Carolinas and Georgia,
a fsw months ago and witnessed the complete
and universal ruin which marked the retreat
and advance ofthe contending armies, would
have thought II impossible for agriculture 10
revive in less than ave years. But we learn
through our exchanges sad from other
sources, that on every hand the owners Of
the soil have gone sturdily to work. Where
the emaneipated slaves have abandoned the
homestead, the farmer and his sons have
plouShed the fields, and have now resped
fair harvest. In many instances, where the
male members Of the family have fallen by
the vieissitudes of war, the women have
bravely set to work, and with little assist
sncs now and then from their more fortunate
nsIghbors, have garnered in enough for their
own support.
Thousand who, before the war, never did
= days manual work in their lives, now la
Dor in this way. Necessity has thrown them
upon their own resources, and they find how
sweet II is to earn their bread by the sweat
OF the brow. Nor is it in agricultural pur-
suits alone that our people have shown this
spirit Of selfreliance. The men have learn
ed to make their own shoes and boots, saddles
and brides and harness, tan their own
leather, and mend their own farming imple-
ments. The women can spin as handily as
their great grandmothers Of the Revolution;
the spinning wheel is their plano forte, not
90 various in its notes, but combining useful
ness with q soothing hum which always
brings to aaiau OIa scenes and pleasant
"reminiscences.
The spirit which snimates these people Is
a glorious one. There is no dependency,
NO repining. What better proof is needed
that they bow submissively to the de-
crees of Providence
Daily Richmond Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1865-1869, 1865-10-12

dash themselves recklessly upon the immo-
vably strong military power of Great Bril-
tain. Wheu they resolve to move for indie
pendence at all, it should not be until disci-
pline has very formidably increased the ad-
vantage of ample equipment, and the occa-
sion itself furnishes an ally in Englands IN
volvement with some great power. DOUBT
less the hone that such may soon be her fate,
and especially with this country, is the main
stimulus to the rapid and widespread or
ganization that is going on. But we thlnK
the hope a vain one. The sagacious men
who direct the destinies of that great power
are too prudent aud cool to do any wrong
or refuse any right towards tbs country out
of which collision could arise, and it is not
to be expected that our government will
wantonly force quarrel upon them. The
opportunity longod fer by the Fenians will
not arise, and the movement, to our view,
promises nothing but peril aud disaster to
those engaged in it. Moreover, We much
doubt whether if the independence for which
IrelsAd has so long sighed were accorded
her, it would prove boon. The most ar
dent love of liberty may be associated with
an incapscity for Self-government, and such
We strongly suspect would be found the case
with the impulsive, excitable, conhding and
mercurial countrymen Of EMMETT and O'CoN-
NELL, of MITCHELL and O'BRIEN. five had
the power OF bespeaking Tor them that which
we might think most 10 their Interest, we
should hesitate long before we would de-
clare that independence and republicanism
we're the most desirable things that could be
bestowed ON ireland. Nevertheless, these
would be undoubted blessings to the Irish
race if enjoyed under circumstances that
would give assurance Of permaneney. Fol-
this reason, We lock upon the emigration o.
the Irish TO this country as their readiest' and
surest road to deliverance. Here they
would fall under tempering and conservative
influences that would, at the same time, fur
nish guarantees of durability to the liberties
voUchsafed, and serve TO educate them int
practical knowledge of free institution
and how they are to be preserved. W.
should esteem it glorious epoch for thi

at work in behalf of an unattainable and IN
certain good, could at once be transferred

WRONG AGAIN.

The New York Tribune published Wash
ington dispatch some time ago, setting forth
that KENNETH RATSoE, of North Carolina,
had written a letter to friend, lin which he
states that unless the government compels
the rebels to treat the freedmen with less
cruelty, there will certainly be rising of the
negroes and bloody retaliation there" Mr..
RATNoR has just published card in the
North Carolina papers, in which he says:
II have written no such letter as the one thus
spoken of. l wrote letter, some weeks since, TO
an old Philadelphia friend, now 10 Washington, in
which attempted to describe TO him the sad and
impoverished condition CT the South. But said
nothing of any cruelty with which the freedmen
were treated; nor did l say anything which could
be so construed.

IRISH HOPES AND INTERESTS.

As will be seen from the extracts we make
this morning from English journals, the por-
tended outbreak in ireland is the chief topic
of interest in Great Britain. The sudden
outcrOpping of the spirit Of Fenianism all
over Ireland-no city, town, borough, or
parish escaping its penetrating influence, has
excited serious disquietude in England, and
provoked = strain Of comment in the more
important journals, in which suppressed
alarm is indifferently concealed under the
quisss of expostulatiOn, menace and ridieule'
The mystery of the movement, and the Sc
erst character Of the danger, in spite OF be-
travals and the discoveries Of detectives,
largely augments its potency, and cores
pondiugly enhances the anxieties OF those
vho have 10 deal with it. Governments, like
individuals. are apt TO stand in greater fear
Of what they cannot explain or comprehend.
There was a disposition at first in England
10 treat this uprising as ridiculous affair,
and If possible, to laugh it down. They AZ
ssctsd TO believe 1t some nonsensiesl impoT-
ration from this country, Of rank and rapid
growth, which would naturally die as it had
snrupg up. But closer view reveals diff
terent class Of elements in its character,
which no mere wordy wand is likely to dis
sipste. The spread Of FeDianism in this
country was q wonder, making its way as 1t
did in defiance Of priestly denunciations aud
those solemn warnings which were wont to
overswe similar attempts at popular comb.
nation but it exciteS even more profound
surprise 70 lad that it has crossed the At
lantic so soon, and domestlested itself so
readily, spreading with such rapidity, on
Irish soil. i must possess a vigorous spirit
indeed to make its way with a celebrity that
Is parslleled by nothing but its silence.
Demonstrations Of Eeuianism are constantly
taking place in Ireland, which, in turn, pro-
woke the more or less heated remarks OF the
English press. By way of rejoinier, the
English are told that they &" ought never to
losc sight Of the fact that they are not now
dealing with hot-headed enthusiasts, as was
the case in rs, but with determined and
clevsr men" The Fenians leave no sigu
mr. token by which the government authori
ties can track them. No paper, password,
,r other tangible proof Of their existence q:
an organization is diseOverable. Everything
that might lead TO their betrayal Is destroyed
Tba Government is invoked to strengthen the
,svsrsl military posts 10 ireland, as safe
gnsrd against the influence and numbers o
Fspisns who ale reported TO be returning
from the United States. These latter are
,poksn of in the English prints as men whC
h.v. become hardened to war during toul
Years service under arms in this country
and, are therefore likely to form poWeri0
rallying point for the masses OF the pOPula
t,on that have so rapidly imbibed the truen

restoration Of Colonel so,horon's Estate

WASHINGTON, Oct. lot may be stated In con.
nectitn with the announcement that Colonel
Sothoron's estate has been restored 10 his family,
that General Martin, of n. H., who commanded
at Point Lookout, investigated the affair OF the
killing of Lieutenant White, and has stated here,
and It's believed, made report that Sothoron and
White were both armed and in the quarrel the
ONLY question was who should fire first No doubt
the President has had knowledge of this fact, and
has fully considered the allegations, if not proofs
that White acted without orders or authority from
Washington in seekingto seize Colonel Sothoroa' &
slaves Who fed to him for protect on from the
military squad that essayed TO force them into the
military service.
Meantime Colonel Sothoron himself has been an
exile, and his large family have been thrown upon
the mercy of the world, and his estate had been
cultivated by strangers.
