Returning to their Senses.

In1S61 the rebel chiefs would have secuted
the idea that they could fail in their appeal
to the sword; they then believed one chival-
rous Southerner equal to at least three sspsalm-
singing" Yankees, and they looked forward to
the establishment, with feeble opposition, of
the most magnificent empire the sun had ever
shone upon, the white skinned cavalier being
the lord and the dark skinned African the vas
sal. N -E54 -ass1af
Whoever doubted the realization of this
dream of their ambition was sneered at. and
with such consummate brass and impudence
did they hold uptheir hands and indulge in
their claims to prominence, that a large par
ty at the North sympathized with them, and
the nobility of England bid them hearty god
speed.
But all this is changed. The swagger has
been whipped out of the more sensible portion
offhe people, and they have come to respect
the men whom they had been accustomed to
despise. A fact stated the other day by Sir
Morton Peto, the distinguished English capi-
talist and M. p, in a speech before the Union
League Club of New York, illustrates this
favorable change in southern feeling. He said :
yesterday met distinguished Southern
general, man who distinguished himself in
the contest, man upon whom, excepting
that general who so distinguished himself as
the Southern leader, most Of the responsibility
of the contest lay. In my conversation with
this officer upon the impressions of my mind
on this aspect of the case, he said to me, @You
may upon your return tell your cotrntrymen
that I haze frankly and cordially adopted
the arbitration of the saoord, and that in the
oath l have now taken to respect and pre-
serve the Union, 1 SHALL in time to come, act

Kenneth Rayner's Opinion of J ames BP-
chanan


Kenneth Rayner, of North Carolina, is a
Union man of ability and candid judgment.
He voted for the secession ordinance in 1851,
because of the paralyzed condition of the
Union men at that time, brought about by
the conduct of James Buchanan. Mr.. Rayner
says:
"And here musC say that I regard James
Buchanan as more responsible for the disas-
tiers and horrors of theslast four years, than
any man in the nation. The people of the
South had very kindly feelings for him. In
fact, he was more popular with the ultra men
of the South, on account Of his conniyance at
the Kansas outrage, his dogma about having
no power to coerce State, &C., than he was
with Union men. A remonstrancc from him,
q warning, declaration that he must main
tain the authority OF the Government and see
that the laws were executed-this, coming
flom a friend, would have induced the seces-
sionlsts to pause and consider, at least; il
would have aroused and given confidence to
the Union element of the South. 1t would, in
my opinion, have averted the conflict. But
he stood still and did nothing. De
