Ia this way we can achieve n real
and blOodless independence.
We oIiould by every means in our
power foster education i'll our midst ;
and provision should be made for in
structing the poorest child in the
land. Our young men should be
encouraged to tread the higher walks
OF literature and science, and whate-
yer Of invcntiyc genius, there is in
our midst, should be encouraged and
ann ly rewarded, Such are some Of
the means by which the South may
reasonably hopeto restore her wasted
fortunes, and achieve a happy and a
glorious future.
Thcra is one other source of true
greatness which we must not fail to
mention, for it is the only real fOun-
dati0n Of civil liberty. We mean
public and private virtue. It should
be displayed in our legislation and
perSoniied in all our personal trans
actions. Southern honor and South
ern honesty should not be words of
empty sound, but they should con,
vey a significant meaning to all com
ing generations, like Spartan brave
~ OF Roman sternness.
In this way we shall recover orr
lost liberties. A vittu0us and intel,

can the people OF the South look for.

under the stimulus of favorable adj

has been less activity, and our latest

which appeal strongly aid loudly to

The destitution and suffering Oh your

aid, at your hands. 1t is a sad fact
that within the limits of Hale county,
there are many helpless human
beings who are at the very door of
starvation. There are many old
men, whose sons persisted in our
straightforward and
whose husbands and fathers |
gave their lives IN defence of you
and yOur property-whO have not
had any meat for months. and who are
now actually suffering with hunger.
\ great majority of these people
would work, but they are physically
unable. They are to be seen on our
streets every day, begging, not for
coffee, sugar, meat, or any of the
comforts of life-but for corn to
make bread for themselves and their
1t is our duty as q humane and
christian people to relieve this suffer-
ng at once. Surely, the enlightened
'eople of Hale county, who are able, |
eed only to have their attention
allied to this matter to insure
heir speedy action. The question .

WASHINGTON, April 2S.- The
health Of Thad. Stevens is much
improved, and he expects to leave
for Pennsylvania next week. He
to-day wrote letter for publication,
taking for his subject the following
extract from a notice of Senator
Wilson's recent speech near Hamp-
ton Roads. He, Wilson, said, there
will be no impeachment to southern
representation in Congress-, if they
elected Union men," and closed his
remarks by saying that "he would
leave Virginia with the full convic.
ton that a republican governor,
legislature and two senators would
be elected" The following is Stew.

Y what authority does he say that
Virginia will elect two loyal sena.
RS r while in truth there is no
irginia. Much is to be done by the
