dlers and loafers in any Southern communi-
ty at this time. Their fathers, generally,
have not the means of supporting them, and

tho fruits of honest industry and toll, and go
l. out the street corners denounoing the radi-
cal party, or Andrew johnson, as tho case
may be, and predicting utter ruin to the coun-
try from the action of one or the other, The

their harvest was the whirlwind, after 50 in
dustriously sowing the seed of wind, gas and
bravado We hope never to sec these polit-
ical cxcitemcnts revived at the South, and that
her people, by patient endurance and indus
try, will look to something higher aud noblcr
to work out her salvation.
