Policy and Politics Of the Late Slave
States.

Fred from civil war and from the la

policy will the South now pursue
The half million Of men of the South,
dead or disabled BY the late rebellion
Fever were, in greater part a, last, cuiti-
vatovs of the soil. The soil Of the South
can now be cultivated in better manner
and at greater profit thon ever before.
Masters have become employers Of ne
groes, and have no longer the responsible
ity and care and cost of the very young
and very old, and sick and disabled, slaves.
They are cared for and supported by their
parents, children and friends. as all other
civilized people are. Foreign imm,gra-
ton, heretofore barred to the South by
slavery, will now overwhelm that coun.
try in preference to the North, and already
the immigration from the Pacific, the
North, the East and the West, is very
large. and it seems to be an adopted poll
cy Of the South to invite immigration. So
far as the North and as Europe is con-
cerned, they will not hesitate to use the
most prolific soils for cultivating the most
profitable crops, and impel for manufac-
turing purposes the grea: motive powers
of the rivers of the South, with the raw
material at their banks. The production
of grain, cotton and sugar in 1866 will be
far greater than at any former period.
bringing with it those social comforts that
eEliven and elevate communities.
Under such circumstances Of prosperity
resulting from conquered cause Of evil,
what will bs the political complexion Of
the South:
The masses of the South. in large ma
jority, have always been true and loyal
Union men. We do not believe that those
prominent in the late rebellion will ever
be looked upon with favor by the masses
that now or hereafter may become voters
Of the South. The secessionists of the
South and of the North have played bold
game. and won in the result degradation
aud infamy. The people Of the South as
one mind, will move en- masse with the
conservative party of the Union. rrpelling
alike secession and Iegro equality; and
in this connection is it not true that war

France If it must b. 80, would more than
all else tend to fraternize the whole PEG.

Illegal Seizure of Alcohol by Govern
ment Officers.


Some time In April Dfessrs- Martin & East
man, distillars Of this city, made shipment
Of Ill barrels Of alcohol. in bond, to thet-
for double the amount Of tax was filed with
the Collector hera, and the same approved
and accepted. and the necessary permits
granted according to the law made and peo-
vided. After the alcohol had been lnaded on
the cars the bill Of ladtng Was sent forward,
and the whole shipment was sold for export
af 95 cents per gallon, to STRIVE within thirty
days. Upon the aEtival Of the spirits at B1E
fAlo, en- route to Its desJnRtion, they we're
seized BY an 4of1cious'' q. 8. official and
thrown Into bonded wa-ehonse, aud no nc
tice whatever given to constgnors or ,con-
ssgnees. Consequence was, the time for de-
livery expired no alcohol appeared price
Yeut down, and contract was Tepudiated.
Time rolled on. and still the shipment Was
t'fehind timc.n Search was instituted and
Saturday morning q communication was re-
Geigtd disclosing the above: facts. Bonded
alcohol Is to-day worth only about fortY-onc
cent? per gallon, clear loss TO the firm OF
nNy-f, Ut cents per gallon. cQ9al'ng nearly
t. rec thousand dollars- The question IL, Who
should EuIer the losss Messrs. Martin d.
Eastman compl ed with the Letter Of the law,
and were trying to do nn honest. legitimate
bustness. Ttht the -"oiftcia1" who made tho
stizure; gaIued considerable notoriety ~
tssharp detective" Is very probable. But 1t
seems TO rs Il Government approved OF his
official sets, 1t Is no moro than right that
Uncle Sam should compensate this firm to
tho amount Of actual loss sustained by this
unnecessary detention, This will most Ike
" be 'sultn for the lawyers to cIask.
