Carl Schurz made speech N Boston last

madness of vontnFing to restore the SOUTH

the danger Of reinyesting their citizens
with political rights. What docs any body
suppose is tho ground on which this battle
stunning aud oilice-hmting radical rests
his opposition 10 a restored Union Why
Is 1t that the people lately In rebellion are
unfit to resume the office Of self-govern-
mentp Because, says the astutc Carl, "hey
medn % get the potoer into their o,cH hands,
and then use u % suit themselves"
This is truly alarming. People don't
generally use power to suit theDtSeiUes--do
they? They delight TO exercise II for the
dclcctation and benefit OF other people,
Massachusetts, unselfishly tries to tickle
Pennsylvania and improve New Jersey by

live In. We are clearly OF opinion that tho
Southern States, in which the Christian
spirit seems 20 have made small hcadway,
should be excluded from power until they
have made a solemn pledge to "suit Mem-
seires' in nothing and TO suit Schurz and
