Ihe Hatlonal johnson Clno has7ssued an
address TO the people. Its principal featurc
Is the care with which 1t applies to Southern
rebels and loyal men precisely the same terms,
Weighing out 10 each, rs II tn scales, exactly
an equal measure OF condemnation and Of
praise It styles the late rebellion " bloody
civil war;" terms which imply no blame to
either party. 1t speaks OF the 'Geuerals
and soldiers on both sides" as "giving the
highest example of macnanlmous feeling that
was cver exhibited" The "victors" and the
"vnngulshed" each appreciated the "noble
courage and sense OF patriotism" which had
animated the other, and "were justly proud
that they were kindred race, and the of.
spring oi the free institutions which had
made them heroes. They knew what all the
world now knows, that 1t was DARK, long
brooded-over conspiracy, through which
wicked, smbitious politicians had secured
control Of the powers Of Government In the
Two remote sections OF tae country, North

the men on each part to the rescue of the
homes and the Governments that we're dearest
and n Arrest to them"
