Prospects OF Another Civil War.
We find the opinion among our
people generally current that there
will be another civil war; this time
between the people of the North
themselves This opinion is not
without foundation. When we learn
the fact that the organizations OF
the Radical party are all more or
less of military character; when
we see at the first collision between
Radlcalism and a Conservative au-
thority the adherents of Congress
not only advising resistance but
marshalling Of armed men for the
contest, and when the Governor of
Maryland is compelled to ask assis-
tance of the President to enforce his
legal authority against trained
bands arrayed against him, we may
all look for Il serious and bloody
struggle in the North.
Nor is this all. The Radical par
ty are evidently determined to hold
their power as long as possible and
their leaders and press declare that
if war be necessary to crush the
President, they will appeal to the
God of battles. They speak of his
impeachment and trial and some
even of his execution as foregone
conclusion. This war, if it comes,
will be purely of Northern birth,
and it will be in the wild passions
displayed, complete answer as to
the causes that brought about our
late revolution, and it will decide for
the generations yet to come, as to
who were really the true friends Of
the Constitution, the people of the
South or the people Of the North.
We do not propose TO give in this
article the declarations Of the lead
ers Of the Radical party as to what
their intentions are. From time to
time as part of the history of the
hour and for the information of our
people we have publish ed the charg-
es and sentiments Of the foul mouth
ed wretches, Hamilton, Butler,
Brownlow and the rest. With the
inferna: nature of the sentiments of
these men our people are by this
time familiar. But we would as n
part of the record make some few
extracts showing the temper of the
Radical Press. s.. e.. ,s..r
The New York Evening Post
says: a- p" -
"Fhc great mass of our popula
ton, excited almost to the same de-
gree as when the rebel guns bonn
barded Fort Sumter, will listen to
no project of reconciliation short Of
the acceptance of the amendments
to the Constitution" dIHh 3
Says the Tribune in an article
from the pen of its leading spirit,
Horace Greeley; s..,gvstrrr
II warn those who are now seek
ing what they term conservative
restoration of the Union that re-
public cannot be pinned together by
bayonets-that it must rest on and
be upheld by the affections of its
people-that, if the loyal blacks Of
the South shall not be fully enffan-
chised there will soon be another
outbreak of the rebel spirit now
smouldering there, even more des-
perate and formidable than that
which has cost the country such
lakes of blood and such mountains
of treasure. Count the four mil
lions of black ciphers, and the re-
bellion has 10 day, what it had not
in the winter of Cola decided
preponderance at the South and
that preponderance viii soon blood
lily manifert itself. There is no safe
ty, no rebel peace, but in universal
justice and impartial freedom"
- The Herald contains the follow
ing in which falsely it tries to throw
a portion of the blame of the exist
ing state Of affairs upon the South
@Outside of Congress the politi-
cal stump speakers on both sides
have been yet more riotous and vio-
lent. The Buffers and Brownlows
and Hamiltons on one side, and the
Sharkeys, DawsOns and Monroes on
the other, have done their best to
excite the prejudices and passions of
the people and TO destroy the bles-
sings of peace. One set Of men in
the Southland another in the East
have used their breath increasingly
TO fan the smouldering embers Of
fanaticism and sectiODalism once
moro into q fame. On one side we
are told that Congress is to be forci-
bly, entered by the Southern mem-
bers and the organization carried at
the point Of the bayonet. On the
other we are promised the impeach-
ment Of the President 81 soon as
Congress reassembles.
