The Growing Insult of the Hour.

The GROWING lhSllii vi INC mum
WILSON, the Massachusetts charlatan and
ignoramus, recently made n trip from
Washington to Petersburg, Richmond and
other localities in Virginia. to offend the
people with his hypocyitical presence and
insult them with his canting demagogue
speeches. Ills address at Petersburg did
not succeed in challenging the admiration
aud gratitude Of the editor otthe Richmond
Times, or he would scarcely have said Of it;
THAT after the fashion Of q certain sulphu-
rous parsonage, who figures largely In sa-
cred and proiane history, the Natick shoe
maker takes the Southern people up into q
lofty mountain and while dcnouncing the
Northern Democracy, tempts them with
splendid promises of future rewards if they
will only sell their souls to the political
miscreants who have deliberately anuihi-
lated our civil rights, DISTINGUISHED our
abiest and purcst men, and entranchised
every male negro in the State.
Coming among a people thus outraged,
Inundated and tramplcd upon by himself
and his party, he lifts his brazcn voice and
proclaims that he has not sought to humili-
ate the South; neither docs he desire that
the ban or~prolongcd disfrauchisemcut shall
rest upon q class of Southern statesmen, the
latchct Of whose shoes this vulgar and iuso-
lent d~cmagoguc is unworthy to loosen.
ReeLiuo from the most active and cnycu-
omed participation in the nagitious lcgisIa-
ton which has deprived us ofall our rights,
he b,. dared to advise the victims of his
