A New LIGHT.-A reported con-
vorsation between Gen. Grant and a
Maine editor, is going the rounds of
the papers. If it be genuine, it pre-
sents Gen. Grant in a new light.--one
favorable neither to his patriotism
nor his craftsmanship, and forces us
to the conclusion, that he is either
totally ignorant of the true position
of the South, or that he is becoming
very ill-natured. Among other things,
he is reported to have said that Gen.
eral Lees conduct, since the sur
render, has greatly disappointed him,
and that he Lee by his silence, is
setting the bad example of enforced
acquiescence. We cannot believe that
Gen. Grant has made any such COM
plant, any more than we can believe
that Gen. Lee has departed from the
line of prudent reserve, digni6ed self
respect and stern adherence to every
pledge, expressed, or implied. Truly,
our Northern masters are hard to
please. To speak out boldly in de-
fence of Southern honor and good
faith, is blatant rebellion; to be re-
served, or silent is lurking treason.

years of age, who have resided one year in
the State and ten days in the district, may

A SLIGHT MISTAKE.

The Washington Republican as
sumes, as fact, that crime is much
more rife in the South than in the
North. This statement has reference
to returned Soldiers, and the expla-
nation which the editor gives is, that
the soldiers of the South fought in a
bad cause, and are thereby debased,
whistle Northern soldiers fought in
q good cause, and were thereby eleva-
ted in character. IF stealing has an
slevating influence upon soldiers, We
must admit that those of the North
enjoyed an abundance of that sort Of
moral training. But to say nothing
of good or bad causes, we are satisfied
from reading Northern and South.
papers, that five crimes are commit
ted in the North, to one in the South
And before the war, this proportion
was at least double. We would far
Their say that, if four millions Of
slaves had been turned loose, as
freedmen, in the North, as was done
here, ten crimes would have been
committed there, to one now. II
must be admitted, too, for the facts
sustain it, that, in the border States
especially, crimes are charged to
returned rebel soldiers which were
committed by those Of the Union ar
my, and even outrages committed by
negroes have, without investigation
been charged upon innocent rebels
The Republican may say what il
pleases about the influence of gooG
or bad cause, but the fact remains
that the best, and most law abiding
citizens to be found anywhere, are
the returned rebel soldiers and those
who sympathized with them. Were
it otherwise, the rapid determination
of the poor negro would prove it.

If such opinions, of these detesta-

the South, who buy and sell and read
them? There are such men all over

conservative, as compared with radi
