They will mount your porch and

"Horace Greeley is q corrupt man,

chance at the Presidency. This
act proves him to be a dish-water
patriot, and cold, soulless animal,
that can forget the blood and the
agonies of Andersonville, Salisbury

aspirations for Office and emoluments

man has reached Washington from
his Southern trip, and expresses HIM
self as agreeably disappointed in the
tone of the sentiment of the South
ern people. He says all are ready
and desirous to accept the terms of
the reconstruction Acts, save few
editors and the stay-at-home men
who kept well out of harms way
during the fight. The Judge says he
was well received everywhere but at

1t is stated that On his return, the
Judge was proffered money by the
Congressional Republican Committee
to reimburse him for his expenses
and outlays incurred in his travels.
He. however, declined, alleging that
the practical knowledge he had re-
ceiyed during his tour repaid him for
the money invested. He is one poll

+ Sone writer N one OF the Dublin
newspapers Isl alarming the United
Kingdom by stories 81 en- American
propaganda in Ireland politiealin its
characte which threatens to under,
mine the causs of order in the En1e-
raid Isle. The New York Times
thinks that tho fabric thus threaten
ed with oyerthrow. is certainly none
of the strongest at best, and that it
would not take very much. to destroy
what little there is of it. y
The writer says that there is re-
gular systematized effort on foot to
teach, in Ireland, the doctrine of
equality, the right of the majority to
rule, and of the superiority of youth
and energy over age and experience;
and that the most terrible conse-
quences may be anticipated unless
the teachings are vigorously met by
the we'll educated and we'll disposed
nen OF Ireland.
Political agitation has ever been
the bane of unfortunate Ireland; it
has kept her people from the progress
that they ought properly to have
made, and is now depopulating that
country with fearful rapidity. Their
wrongs-real orimaginary-ca can never
be righted by this continual political
ferment, and the Americans who go
there to stir up strife might be en-
gagged in better business. Political
agitation is of very doubtful utility
in any country, and generally i'm
poverishes the people who are prone
to indulge in it to any great extent.
1t has brought the South to her pre-
sent condition, and we hope the day
is distant when it will be revived
among her people. AS for Ireland,
all the propagandas in the world
would fail to establish the principles
of republicanism there.

In the days of slavery, says the
New York Times, the negro women
constituted fully one-half the field
force in the light labor of cotton cul-
ture. Even last year, they worked in
the fiel6bt to n considerable extent; but
g Southern correspondent writes that,
this year, they have almost entirely
withdrawn from it. They declare
that "the white women never work
ont, but are supported by their men; /;
that it ought to be so, and that they
(the blacks) will not submit any more
to outdoor work" We haveno doubt
that the "colored sisters" will adhere
to this determination, so the cotton
planters must give up all hope of
ever seeing them again in the field.

Some time ago, we noticed that
Gen. Ord In command in Missis-
sippi, had issued an order in which
he enioined upon the freedmen in his
distict the necessity of work and
obedience to contracts. as pararno nount
fto,politics, attending mass meetings,
&C.. This order is commented on by
. large portion Of the partisan press
as degrading the colored man to the
position;H Of "a mere manual laborer. "
The General in reply to this accusa-
,tion, says that he does regard it as
much more important to the freed
man and everybody else, that he
should learn to- support himself by
his own labor, and he does not see
how this can be. construed into hos
tility to the Republican principles or
policy. The active politicians in his
department declare that no organiza-
sion Of the Republican party can be
effected there without aid from the
Sd -. Y :.
military authorities, and he is COM
planned of for not giving it.
g The commanding generals through
out the entire South have abstained
very wisely from exercising any
political or party influence in their
eleyated positions. They all appear
to be intent only in the execution of
the laws of Congress, which is the
first duty imposed upon them; and
thus far the work of reconstruction
is progressing very smoothly, owing
to the wisdom and conservatism of
the policy adopted by them. It was
sound advice that General Ord gave
the freedmen in the order referred
to, and is just as applicable to the
whites as tits to them.s Work be-
fore politics, in the distressed and
impoverished condition of the South,
should be the guiding rule of all her
people; and if each individual, in his
y respective sphere of labor or useful
! ness, adopt it, it viii be the better,
not only for the South, but for the
whole country. We can very well
afford to let politics rest for the pre-
sent, except in the discharge of our
plain dHty as voters, without detri-
ment or loss; whereas, if the South
ern people, black or white, neglect
the tilling of their land and the
tending of their crops, we may ex-
pect to have repetition of the pre-
sent season of scarcity and suffering.
Surely, they will not be thus foolish
to waste their time on that which
can profit them nothing, either in
their public or private interests.
