COL John :. Pearce on the ''Situa-
IiOn"-EHe DenOunces the RadI.
Gals.
We are permitted to publish the follow
ing extract from letter of Col. John S.
Pearce, late OF the gallant 9Sth 0. V. l., to
his brother, Jacob Pearce, Esq, of Athens
township, this county. We told the Colonel,
last fall, that he was in bad company, and
he has now found out his mistake. We re-
commend the present position of the Col
onel to his old friends in this county. 1t
has the true ring of the soldier. The letter
is dated at New Orleans, La. Read:
BY. the way how are your feelings upon
the GHbject of politics?
AS Tor myself have little time to reflect
upon them; but when do, am sorely
veXed with the course of those in Congress
who are still standing, and have stood out
from the beginning against the reconstruc-
tion policy of President johnson. These,
in my opinion, are dangerous men. They
are madmen and they fully threaten us
with another and still more alarming ma
tional curse than the one which has Just
passed. The roar of cannon is hushed and
the clash of hostile arms is no longer heard
in the land. Brother struggles with BROTH
er no longer on the field of battle. The
sword is hung up in its scabbard and the
civil walks of life are sought once more by
the contestants, and the past is forgotten
save in its glorious memories of our honor
ed dead. Do you ask the people here to
cease their meanings tor loved ones who
fell in defense of what they believed to be
right, and the father, mother, sister and
brother to choke in silence their griefs and
bridle their tongues against bitterness?
You ask, of them what is Impossible. Time,
friendly intercourse, charity, prudence and
forbearance can only smoothe the troubled
waters of the last four years, and restore
our once happy and powerful brotherhood.
The great mass of the people here in the
South, whilst they may and occasionally
do murTnur over the past, and indulge in
abusive sayings against the people OF the
North, are determined to be loyal to the
Government and obey its laws. 1t is a very
common expression among them that they
will be as good citizens as ever they were,
but it is impossible for them to cruelty
their feelings in an hour
rs it not then q very great wrong and in
Justice for Government which has always
boasted of its magnanimity, to shut the
door and refuse these people admission to
the full enjoyment OF their rights and priv
ileges once more? Do as you think best
with the few that stirred up and melted
them to deeds OF wrong. treason and rebel
lion but come with the good old hearty
grssps, smiles and greetings of days of yore
to the mass, and then will come the white
winged messenger OF peace to guard our
Union, and not before. All that could be
accomplished by armed force was accom-
r,lished, and now let no insult be offered by
the living who profess to be loyal and who
encouraged them to give up home and
friends and do battle for their country, to

DON'T DO IT.

When one who declared that Lincoln's
election provoked and justified secession
and disunion, asks you to sign political
call, don't do it!-Tribune, March 3, 1866.

This doubt has been at length unbappily

This doubt has been at length unhappily
dispelled by the scientific research of some
eminent physicians from Germany aud
England, who have had recent and ex-
tensive acquaintance with the rinderpest or
cattle plague, in its varying and often most
subtle forms, and who are unanimous in
expressing their belief that this new dis
ease, chiefly appearing in those who eat
butter carried from certain districts to the
New York markets, is bnt another mani
festation of the cattle plague in one of its
earlier and milder forms.
