The Southern People and Politics.

Some of the Yankees don't approve of the
apathy manifested by our people in the
matter of national politics The New York
Times of Saturday says:
We notice thata great many of the South
ern newspapers are advising the people of
the South to pay no further attention to
political affairs, but to give up all care as
to whether or not their representatives are
admitted to Congress. and to abide patient
ly the development of the purposes Of their
Northern masters" They argue that
the appearance of affairs is SO discouraging,
and that the position of the South is one
of such utter helplessness, that the best
thing its people can do is to let politics
drift. and devote themselves entirely to I'M
proving their material fortunes. The ad-
vice, in broad and permanent point of
view, is bad. It would be most unfortu-
nate thing that such q vast body of the
American people should settle down into
Indifference upon such vital matters of
popular concern. It is absolutely essential
to the proper working and permanent con-
tinuance of our free institutions that the
whole people of the country should at all
times take an active interest in them"

The New York Express, in remarking
upon the message of the Governor Of Mis-
sissippi, says:
"The Executive presumes that the five
additional amendments which have been
forced by Congress upon the Southern
States as whole, and with q direct refusal
Of taking them in part, will be rejected at
once. We have no doubt that this is pub
lie sentiment in all these States. Congress
can menace, can punish, and deny to
States, Senators, and Representatives their
Constitutional rights, but it cannot force a
people to degrade themselves or disgrace
their posterity by adopting principle
which forces upon them either negro suf
frage OF unequal representation, or which
puts the law Of accommodation upon
nine-tenths of the Southern people. But
while this cannot be done, we rejoice to see
in Mississippi, as in South Carolina and
elsewhere, purpose Of affording every pos
sible protection to the negro, in his person,
in his property, in his right to the proceeds
Of his labor, among the people, and before
the Courts. Whenever the North will let
go its grip, it will find the Southern people
equitable, reasonable and just If it were
not their own good pleasure to do so it
would be to their interest"

MINORITY GovERNMENT. 1T is beyond
question that of the tax-paying, native-born
citizens of the United States there is to-day
u majority of more than a million against
the Radical party. If our Radical politi-
clans succeed III impressing on the popular
mind the idea that the majority of the peo-
pie of the United States have a right to rule
the United States without regard to the
Constitution, they will soon find that disa-
bilities, created by the will of majority in
temporary power, will be swept to the
winds 1t is Il curious blunder for sensible
men to make, this doctrine that a minori-
ty may make laws DISTINGUISHING a large
portion of the people, and then claim that
they rule by virtue Of being a majority
Such an absurdity will not stand the test of
moments examination nor could the
power of & minority be sustained against
the majority Oh any such grounds.

The LARGEST SNAKE.-Mr. Speke, in his
work on the discovery of the source of the
Nile, thus describes the death of a snake of
the boa species, shot by his travelling COM
panion, Captain Grant:
I shuddered as 1 looked upon the effects
of his tremendous, dying strength. For
yards around where he lay, grass and
bushes and saplings, and, in fact, every
thing except the more fully grown trees,
were cut clean off, as though they had
been trimmed with an immense scythe.-
This monster, when measured, was fifty
one feet two and half inches in extreme
length, while the thickest portion of its
body the girth was nearly three feet, prov
ing, I believe, to be the largest serpent
that was ever authentically heard of.

said.

r,IM.cRAT1oN FROM THE NORTH.

The South needs the assistance of Northern
capital, muscle, energy and enterprise to assist in
her reiuvenation, and we are satisfied that North
ern immigration would have poured in upon her
inviting fields, but for the persistent manner IN
which the feelings of her people towards those OF
the North, have been misrcpresented. 1t has been
represented that it was dangerous for Northern
man to settle south of the Potomac. To people
who are governed by the maxim "enemies in war;
in peace friends" this assertion seems ridiculous
The following from the Richmond Times faithfully
portrays the feeling of our people upon this sub
ject:
So we say that there are at the North hundreds
and thousands of good, sensible men, whom we at
the South would be glad to welcome amongst US.
We want their industry, their thrift, their capital
They would find no prejudice existing against
them, and business and social relations they could
easily at once establish with our people. We want
them to come among us and ensure them hearty
welcome. For they would come to aid us in build
ing up and fostering the country, and not for the
purpose of creating trouble and fomenting dissen-
sions amongst u.s. AS for the canting, Puritanical
Yankee, with his negro affiliations, his plymouth
Rock" his Goldfish, etc., We want none of that ar
ticIe, for We detest them almost as much as the
freedmen do.
