The following very sensible advice
is from OR Oun Paper, published at
Pontotoc. If there ever was time
when the good and true people Of the
South should be united, it is the pres
ent. Let them counsel with each 9th

strongly hints that our State Senator
may possibly find himself in Fortress
Monroe. We make the following ex
tracts:
While, therefore, we are gratiied t.
hear that the President has had moth
ing to do with the getting up this pc
ton of Sharkey and Walker, we dc
not like this apparent confidence O
Sharl1ey in his revolutionary designs
under the wing of Mr.. Johnson. AL
| such disturbers of the public peace il
the rebel States, and of the revivine
! spirit of law and order therein, ought
! to be made to understand, without
further indulgences, that they must
not any longer presume to obstruct
/ this work of Southern reconstruction
and that if they do not stand out Of
the way they will be put out of the
way in limbo, under the reserved Uni
ted States rights of martial law.
Southern men who now attempt tC
put distractions in the way of South
ern restoration under the laws of Con
gress are the worst enemies of the
South. We would admonish the
Southern people that such leaders as
Sharkey and Walker, in behalf O
State rights, are leading them in the
old ruts of the rebellion; we would
again remind those people that neither
President Johnson nor the Supreme
Court, if so inclined, can restore theil
States to voice in Congress; bu
!. that this power rests exclusively with
Congress itself, and that the conditions
imposed by this Fortieth Congress are
fixed against all contingencies to the
end of Mr.. Johnson's term of office
Lastly, if the political leaders of the
South wish to conciliate the Nortl
and to raise up a powerful nationa
party against the extreme radicals
they must repudiate the factious com
ments and counsels of such politician.
