State Convention of South Carolina ac-
kno Wedges that slavery has been extin-
guished; counsels wise, just and humane

THE accounts from East Tennessee are
one prolonged wall of horror. Nowhere
else in the South are scenes of blood be-
ing enacted on an equally extensive
scale The Union men, remembering how
they were hunted down in the earlier
years of the war, are resol we'd that their
prosecutors shall not live with them in
peace on any terms. The surrendered
rebels, upon the other hand, claim the
protection Of their parole, and protect
themselves But as oil and water will
not mix, even with much shaking, so
these two elements stand out in unre-
lcnting hostility. Murders are of daily
occurrence, but they are not murders by
stealth or done for robbery. The rnling
