The Zone and Temper for the Times.

The Tone md Temper for the Times
We have a communication. too long for
our use. from a Northern gentleman who
takes a very impartial view of the present
state of feeling North and South, and dapre-
Gates the injudicious indulgence of the pas
sions which excited by the events of the
past. have not yer subsidized He says:
1t cannot be expected that the two great
sections of the country. so recently at war,
will at once Settleiu peaceable and amieable
relations with each other, however desirable
such a cousumm2tion may be The war of
arms is over. but the war of words, with new
issues involved, still RACES. Agitation and
free discussion are necessary TO the discovery
of truth and the progress Of the country
but this strife i too bitter and too general
not TO threaten disaster.
Applying these remarks especially to the
South, he proceeds to say:
1t is pre-emineutly important that she
show no Ill temper; that on all possible oc-
casious, she exhibit her patience and long
suffering, and essential good temper. under
great TRIALS and disappointment and ms
fortunes; her abiding determination to be at
peace and on terms of friendship. In this
| view l read the speech of Mr.. stephens, be-
fore the Georgia Legislature, with unaffected
pleasure and hope. Such a spirit and temper
| as be manifested did it prevail in the South,
would disarm the Radicals Of their power at
/ once.
beg leave to say that read yOur
| editorial of yesterday morning [l2thl with
muck pleasure. 1t Is one of the encouraging

weight and influence in the State as the Cla.
