Some few weeks ago a gentleman from

one Of the leaders Of the Republican party,
what the intentions Of the party were with
reference to the South. Mr. Greeley very
courieously and promptly replied in the
following letter:

3 Even the tax on cotton-though I
think it falls Especially mainly on the
consumer, not the prOdneer--is certain 10
be taken off very soon. Il is sustained
only because OF the need Of local revenue.

who remains quietly at home and attends

Of his part in the late rebellion. Assassins

ment Of the North was adverse to any ex-
action of the South. with regard 60

prevalent opinion here that the hetter por-
lion Of the Southern whites viii never pro

TO their safety.
