Modern democracy reioiced ut the
assassination of president Lincoln; and
some of its chief spokesman advised the
deed as legitimate means of getting rid
of "a tyrant.' - Wisconsin.
According to our recollection of history
the chief spokesman of the radicals in the
pulpit, through the press, and everywhere,
treated the assassination of Lincoln as the
work of the Lord, and Booth as his chosen
agent and servant to do the deed. Wheth-
er in their prayers they advised the Lord
to the deed we know not, but judge from
the evident satisfaction with which it was
received by them, that such probably was
the case. We are somewhat strengthened
in this opinion from having heard recently
good pious member of the radical faction
remark shat he prayed the good Lord to
send another assassin to treat johnson as
Lincoln was served 1t is instructive to
remark in this connection that these piOus
brothers do not pray for Johnson's assassi-
nation because he is "tyrant," but for
the same reason that they rejoiced in Lin
coins death, because they think he has too
much of kindness, Of charity and forbear-
ance. In short, for precisely the same rea-
son that the Jews crucifed Christ-because
he was too much of Christian. "Alas!
for the rarity of christian charity" partic-
ularly among the pious brothers.--Er.

The history of one of the greatest
swindles, the Omitted States Prize Con.
cert, )" of Chicago, has just been given
to the public. Started by retail gro.
Ger Of that city in conjunction with a
man who had obtained some notoriety
on both sides of the line during the re-
belIiOn, four other partners were after
wards taken in on their contributing
five hundred dollars each, to form a
financial basis for the undertaking. On
this capital of $1,000 they went to work,
and soon received 100000 from the
credulOus public.
The partners lived high, spent money
freely, and thus squandered a consider
able portion of their "hOnest earnings. -
But spend as freely as they liked, they
could not keep pace with their incomes.
and when enquiries, too close TO be
agreeable, rendered Chicago uuDIens-
ant for them as "a home. they retired on
comfortable earnings from their few
weeks business. One partner invested
5000, into which his $500 had grown,
in farm at Wisconsin. The $500 OF
another had increased to $50, 600: that
of another to $4,000; and The retail
grocer carried off go, 900. These three,
it is said, have dubbed their funds and
are engaged in IL similar scheme in an
other city. whilst the grOcer's first part

SOCIAL CHANCES IN THE SoUTH.-The
Richmond Tunes has striking article
upon the changes in the ideas and hab-
its of the Southern people since the war,
in which it says:
They can no longer lead those lives
of ease and idleness to which slavery
was not only temptation, but, in Il
measure, rendered almost unavoidable
in the man of wealth and leisure. The
village post office, InP, crossroads, gro
Gerry, and court green, are no longer the
scenes upon which idle. dissipnted
men, young and old. spend the greater
portion OF their time. II is true that
whisky is dear and grecnbaCks scarce
but these considerations do not eek plain
the moral and social phenomena which
We are called upon to witness. The
people have changed with the times and
their circumstances. and wisely realize
the necessity of conforming to the ne
ceSsitieS OF their altered condition. The
vapId, loud-mOuthed politician is no
more listened to with rapt attention
and curiosity, and he has sense enough
to hold his tongue where the people take
so little interest in politics that he would
not secure an audience. Speech making
is now voted bore. 1t consumes
valuable time; and the people
find it difficult to discover
hastings are at all likely to tighten
the taxes or help the political situation.
They have vague suspicion that too
much talking brought war and ruin
| upon us, and that those are the best off
now who think much and say little.
1.-The revolution in sentiment and ac-
ton, to which we have alluded, is con-
! fined to no particular class at the South:
it pervades all classes of our white pop-
ulaGOn. The changed condition OF af-
fairs, like "A new pair of shoes or boots,
may rub and pinch at first, but ulti-
mately may be worn with ease and
comfort. Ours are not a people to sit
forever whining and repining by the
banks of the stream OF human progress
and watch the remnants of their pros.
perity floating of upon its surface. No;
they have enough Anglo Saxon energy
and courage left to dash into the waters
and rescue the fragments Of whatever
may be left them worth preserving.
Those who think the South, like IA great
moral coward, will fall PROSTATE and
grovel forever in the dust and ashes of
despair, are grievOusly mistaken. She
will do no such thing; but conscious of
her merit and untarnished honor, she
will, ere long, HstOund tho world by
achievements in every domain OF sci
ence and art"

Dudley, Chairmnn of tho Executive
Committee of tho "Soldiers' and Sail

office he held in one ofthe Departments.

We believe Mr.. Dudley was among tho
small company who applied for leave
of absence, Offering to nbate their regu-
lar pay meantime, but were refused.
He has for many weeks been engaged
in working up the preliminary arrange
ments for the great Convention, and no
decent man would have intorposed his
objection to his being present. but the
President. nevertheless, removed him,
as quickly as II rebel would have shot

In plain termS-the President is go

the view of taking part with the
