From all quarters-from the East and the
West--the cry comes that there is stagna-
tion In business. Is it strange that there
!, should be stagnation in businessr The cur
rency is Inflated, and yet the complaint is
that collections are hard to make. Times
are hard and likely to grow harder, is an
impression that is CALLING currency. Why
this? There must be for it cause. For
over four years we prosecuted war-a
war thatcould have been averted had it not
been for the obduracy of leaders in the Re-
publican partY-that laid waste country
that contributed very largely to the pros
perity of the West and the East The South
was most profitable customer to these
two sections of the Union. While the work
of carnage and desolation went on we did
not miss their trade; but now that war is
over, these our aforetime customers are as
poor and lean as misers charity. In con-
sequence of which we too become sufferers
"a paralytic is seizing upon business; and
so long as the Southern States shall be de-
MED their co-equality in the Union, so long
will the people thereof be without induce
ment to 60 forward in the works of industry
and enterprise that they otherwise would
have. Meanwhile, stagnation will sit, as
nightmare, upon business.

Because the South refuses to ratify
amendments to the Constitution that her
people regard as trampling their manhood
into the dust--as too humiliating and dis
graceful for men of American birth and
pride to adopt-Radical journalists declare
that instead of manifestiDg an obedient dis
position, they assume an arrogant air and
presume to dictate terms to their conquer
ors. Those who talk thus, seem careful to
forget that the Federal Government did
. not prosecute the War for the purpose of
g emasculating the spirit of the Southern
people; but for maintaining the Union, and
? the States within the Union in all their
rights and privileges-for maintaining ''the
best Government that had ever existed"
Slavery, the bone of contention between
the North and the South, and which was so
troublesome to our eonsciences, has been
by the South put out of the way for all
time. This is Infinitely more than we bar
gained for in the outset of the War; but
the Southern White people refuse to make
out of the slaves they have thus set free
their political rulers. And this refusal is
denominated an arrogant and dictatorial
spirit. Is it such? a 81 iru

ally in vogue with newspapers at the pres

one we do not think deserving; but we have

to the patronage of the public. They al
ways keep up with the times, and reduce
the price of their goods in proportion to
the fall in the eastern cities. They have
received large stock Of holiday goods
suitable for ladies' wear, which they offer
at reduced prices. In order to save trouble
in taking an inventory on the 1st of January

ASmuGEs
We are charitable enough to suppose.
that the Cleveland Leader believes 1t is not
scandallzlng truth In representing THE
STATESMAN as holding to the opinion
that "havlng done wrong in the past
we must continue to do SO in the flu
ture; that having enslaved race on ac-
count Of barbarous notions of caste, we
must continue the oppression at the ex-
pense of liberty and democracy; that hav-
ing established a wicked precedent, we
must continue In our sins for fear of viola
ting a time-honored abuse" The STATES
MAN subscribes to no such doctrine. All
that was vicious and wrong in the past, or
that is now vicious and wrong, itwould
relentlessly wipe, ont, Not vestige
OF it would 1t have remain; but The
STATESMAN does not think it vicious
or wrong to withhold from the
Negroes the privilege Of voting and hold
ing Office, because Of avery. firmly settled
opinion that the Negro race is not mentally
the equal Of the White race, and not being
tins equal, it would be gross wrong to
the White race to give to the Black race
equal voice in the administration Of the
various departments Of Government. Sup
pose the Leader address itself to the work
of proving the Black the equal Of the
White race mentally. We shall give to its
argument respectful attention, and If 1t
shall be conclusive, we shall, no doubt, be-
come convert. ot. g $50 iitts.l g
