OF paint, powder or starch, and dis
cardlng the drab suit, inevitable UNI

These resolutions, which have

These resolutions, which have
passed the House, would seem to be
,the lowest depth-but there still may
be aIower depth-to which radical
malice and hatred wonld consign the
Southern people. Already wasted and
impoverished, and buriened with
taxes, they now seek to take what
little is left, grinding lis by the inflic-
ton of another unconstitutional tax,
and thus, not being able to pay, to
confiscate and drive us to utter ruin.
How long, o Lord, will thine aveng-
ing arm be stayed, is question our
suffering people may well ask. 70
the frnlncss and patriotism Of the
President, and to the wisdom of tho
Judiciary, are the earthly hopes of
the Southern people now restricted
to deliver them.
Wo do not write thus to cnGender
or revive ill-feeling between the peo-
plo Of the two sections. The radicals
do not represent the people of the
North; they arc at war with the Con
stitution, the President and the con-
servatism of the country, and the true
and loyal people i'll every section of
the land would DC glad to see The
radicals and their schemes over
whelmed with defeat.

REPORTED RESIGNATION OF THE
HEAD OF THE FREEDMEN BUREAU.
The Now York ILyubl mentions a re-
port that Gen. Howard, Of the Bu-
rcau. will probably resign. It is emf
nently desirable that he should
resign. However competent and i'm
maculate Gen. Howard may be, it is
evident that lie has allowed his feel
lnSs to become too much wrapped
up IN the Bureau; it has become too
much of special hobby with him
to permit him to administer its affairs
to the mutual and impartial benefit
OF the white and black races.

SOUTHERN REPRESENTATION. The
South, says the Louisville Democrat,
complains that she is not represented
III Congress. She can be consoled by
the fact that large portion Of the
North IS still worse off. 1t is misrep-
resented. There arc uuquestionabIy
greater evils than q want of rcpresel-
tation IN the body that now controls
the dcstinics of the country, cspe-
cially if the boon is to be conferred
only on those who can take the test
oath, md who, therefore, would not
be likely to aid in reforming in chang
ing the Legislative character Of the
Government.

! SHAMEFUL There are a number Of
men, we came near saying, but they are
unworthy of the title-Saloon Keepers i'm
this community, who are i'm the habit of
permitting young boys to come TO their Sa-
looms to gamble and drink. Such people are
a disgrace to the community, and would
shame Satan. whose image they bear
How they can ever look these boys par
ents in the face, and why they are permit
ted to continue on in this shameful and
open violation of the law, we are unable to
conjecture, and can only express surprise
that they have been allowed 10 keep it up
so long. We hope they. will consider the
prospects they are blighting, and the many
tears of anguish they are causing to be
shed from fond mothers hearts, at the ruin
of their boys, and discontinue this infa-
nous as well as inhuman practice. We
don't include all of them in this category,
as there are some who have manhood
enough mot to allow minors to loaf
around their saloons.
