Well! What Next?

In the year of our Lord 1850, one Abra-
ham Lincoln, sectional candidate, was
elected President of the United States
The year 1861 found several of the South
ern States by conventional ordinances sePa-
rated. seeded, and formed into defacto
government called the Confederate States of
America. With varying fortunes a stu
pendous and bloody war was waged for
more than four years between the Confede-
rate States and the United States. The re-
suit was disastrous to the former. The
Confederate States government ceased toAPe
and the Confederate Armies were dis
banded.
Have we the people of the South an ade-
ouate comprehension of the full extent of
the disaster? Do We truly realize the pres
ent situation and our future prOspects?-
We fear not. The gloomiest consideration
in connection Herewith is that our past
losses are irremediable. No man of sense
can hope to redeem the past. Silently sin
cerely, we, if true to honest instincts,
must mourn our loss. For it involves, the.
loss of property, the destruction of a cher
ished institution, injustice TO widows aud
minor children and neglect of MANNED Patri-
OTIS, and the widows and orphans of our
dead braves.
And more too. We have had to go
through the farce of conventions to recon
struct the Union-under duress, pretended
voluntarily to do that, which had already
been done by the conquerer;- viz: free our
slaves--repudiate debts honestly contracted
and submit to insults, the extortions, and
! peculations of the Freedman's Bureau
Here, too, in Tennessee, we have been ours
ed with the rule of poor, old wicked, insane
BrOwnlow aud his Radical gislature.\$
We have thus far survived all these doses
of nauseating Physic which, if they do not
sooner or later kill the patients, can con-
tribute nothing to their physical, political
or social we'll being.
There too comes a failure of the crops to
an almost ruinous extent throughout the
South. This, with the swarms of Tax
gatherers, adds nothing of pleasantness tc
the future prospects Of this people.
Interest il politics will abate not one jo
or title of the burden We have to bear.

For the Pulaski Citizen.
What Of the Race ?---On Which Horse
Shall We Ra4E

w
The duty of Southern men in reference to
the contest now going on between the Presi-
dents party and the Radicals is not, to the
mind of the writer hereof, very clear. The
fact is, the South has been conquered. hope
,Iessly subdued. The Southern States are
now virtually held as conquered provinces
by the victors. We are at their mercy
They are determined to humble us.
The President has made us seat Dirt
by the peek" and our digestion is now
almost hopelessly ruined He has not had
it in his power to reward us for our servile
obedience to his commands. He invited
US to a convention designed to form party
in support of ''his policy"
Hos are we to aid him? BY speaking
out? Mol For the more We praise him. the
more enemies we make for him in the
North, where the power lies to affect us for
weafor for woe.
Is the contest SO indicative of a result in
the Presidents favor as to justify casting
our lot with him? If we bet on the Con-
servative horse, and jocky for him, will the
Radicals show us any mercy, if our favOrite
is beaten?
We are held as conquered provinces
have no rights or privileges except sucn as
may be granted by our masters. Had we
not better be quiet, and take no part in the
contest? We are literally political beggars,
and therefore have no right of choice. This
is a humiIiating confession, yet none the
less true. ...e
The writer hereof may have gotten down
too low in the dust of humiliation and haYe
become somewhat blinded thereby. - He
has no use for a Radical, no friendship or
admiration of such intellectual and meEal
monstrocities. Yet he confesses a great
distrust of all political trfunoers, saeh as
are the so-called Conservatives of the pres
ent day ZFinansers bluster and blunder,
never fight, never persevere against odds,
real or supposed, and are generally poor
judges of the state of public sentiment
Their want Of boldness creates distrust, iu
the minds of voters, and generally ensures
their defeat.
Upon the whole, then, is it not bettef
that our people be quiet, cool, and stand of
from the contest, risk nothing on the race,
so that, terminate Sas 1t may we'will not
damage ourselves?
Give the Radical party rope enough and
they are bound to hang themselves.
If in the course of one year they have
destroyed republicanism in ten States, how
long will it take them to do their work in
the remaining twenty-six?
Is not the contest now being inaugurated
a sort of Kilkenny oat-fght, which if inter.
fered with by US of the South will result in
the destruction of both parties? K.

The prisoner then mounted the scafold,
accompanied by the Chaplain, Jas. Young,
whom he requested to pray with him at his
execution. The rope Was adjusted about
his neck, the cap drawn over his head, the
trap was sprung, and the prisoner fell, sus-
pended in the air.
