I, OH ARLOTIE
!! II Madame Levert, in letter written from
New York to friend in Mobile, Ala. says
ut is said that there is an effort being made by
politicians here New York; to get up another
revolution in the South So much money was
made during the that they wish it to begin
again. God grant it never, never may!'
We do not think the Southern people will be
found willing TO engage in another revolution,
though the radicals of the North seem determined
to do everything they can to exasperate them.
Every lover of peace hopes that the radicals will
soon be crushed out of power.

GALL THE SHRIEKERs OUT OF HEIL"-i
The present Governor, W. G. Brownlow, of
Tennessee, delivered lecture on slavery in
New Orleans, about eight years since, from
which the following is an extract. It is char
acteristic of the old gentleman, though little by
little he has simmered down in the intensity of
his words, as well as changed his front from
South to North
"The Southern Methodist Church was doing !
more for the temporal and eternal welfare of The
negro than all the shri.kers. out of hell the
pious abolitionists would enter the church on
Sunday, with face as long as the moral law,
descant upon and bewai the niseries and wrongs
heaped upon the down-trodden son Of Africa,
and on the following day, in bis picayane grocc
ny, Or candy store, wqsta if ho eJul9, swindle ,
Louisiana negro ont of the pewter ornament on
the head of bis cane, and do il inthe name of
the Lord when l geSto Heaven" continued |
the reverend gentleman, where [ expect to 90
sftof my death, if fnd regular aboitionist
there shall conclude he praetieed fraud upon
the door keeper, for in my opinion, Kansas
asisator and freedom shIieker has no more bust |
ness in our Fathers Kingdom than Commodore |
Paulding had in Nicaragua, when he captured !
the fllibusters."
APPLICATIONS FOR PARDoN.-A telegram
from Washington, dated Sept. II, says:
The applications of SoutherDers for pardon /
continue to be received at the Attorney Cen |
erals Office at the rate of between TWO and three
hundred per day, requiring the constant atten-
ton of the efficient clerical force Of the Office to
classify and arrange them for investigation by I
the Attorney General.
A GENERAL AMNESTY PROBABLE The
opinion is confdentally entertained 10 many
quarters that something approaching general
amnesty will be proclaimed towards the late re
bells of the South long before the meeting of +
next Congress, and that the public need not be
surprised at its pronul cation any day. 1t is ex-
pected to be made applicable to the people Of
particular States at different times. Mississippi
has been foremost among the lately rebellious
n framing unobjeetionablo constitution.
She may also be the first to reap the reward of
his extended clcmcncy.- Washington Letter.
