He gives it ~ his opinion that tho

stitution. no longer exists. and ex-
presses appr.hensions that free in.
situations are in danger If tho de-.
signs of the radical cabal eontroll-

vivid picture of the future which
awaits the people OF the South in the
embrace Of such Government a. 10

the gloomy prospect. however. he
counsels forbearance and endurance
on their part. and rests his chief
hope on the return Of sanity among
the misled people Of the North. aud
the overthrow Of the ambitious lad
