LET THE NEGRO BEwARE.-The
New York Citizen, Of the oath, is
responsible for the following. The
Citizen is edited by miles O'Reilly)
Gen. Haplin, who served with dis
tinction in the United States army
during the war
The daily papers are making a
great middle over the opinions Of
the prominent generals and the peo-
pie at large on the question Of recon-
struction. They tell us that Grant
approves of the course of the Presi-
dent, that Thomas agrees with
Sheridan, and that Sherman favors
the plan Of Congress, or vice versa,
according to their political bias. We
can tell them all that if the Congress
sional system is to put the South in
possession of the negroes, it does not
meet the views Of the people, the
sailors in our fleets, the soldiers in
our armies, the merchants at their
desks, the farmers at their plows, or
any other large body Of our citizens.
A St. Domingo is not what we
fought for; we do not want it, and
we shall not have it; and the Mig
gers; whether white OIL black, may
understand as well first aslast. Ma
tons are cruel when driven to de-
spair, and, rather than: surrender our
white nationality, we will massacre
or enslave every colored man in the
States. This may be bold language
and unconventional, but we ask our
readers whether it does not meet the
confirmation of their hearts : We
have sacrificed too many whites for
a principle to stop at taking the lives
of a few worthless blacks.

bushels to the acre, and readily bring two
dollars and half per bushel in the mar
ket. But it is difficult for people to be-
come alienated from the routine of tradi-
tional occupations and pursuits, and it re-
mains to be seen whether they who thus
propose to themselves to adopt different
course of planting in the future, will con-
sent eventually to absolve themselves al
together from the allegiance they have so
long been accustomed to pay to that old
and now rather unsafe and decrepid sover-
eign-"King Cotton" II.

How WE STAND.-The Alton
Democrat takes issue with the Cres-
cent, on the position we have taken
concerning the political organization
at the North calling itself the Demo
cratic party When the Alton Demo-
crat will tell us what the Democratic
party proposes to adopt as it's policy
with reference to any leading subject
IN national politics-the finances of
the country, for instance--we can
pay some heed to its admonitions.
The Northern Democratic press does
not agree on that question, and that
is a most important and should soon
become the great question Of the
day. just now Northern Democracy,
like Northern Republicanism, means
little more than the clinging to an
old name and an old organization
that have completely outlived the
days OF usefulness. We think that
II the conservative element of The
South is ever to havs an opportunity
to enter again the arena Of national
politics, it will do very much better
at that time if it is disencumbered of
the burden Of dead issues, names
that mean nothing, and an organiza-
ton that is only the carcase Of a
body once full of vitality and
strength. A large part of the South
ern people think with us, we are
comforted to know, and will act with
us when the time comes when action
will tell.
The Alton Democrat need not,
even for the sake CT argument, class
the Crescent with those it terms ia
natlcs or secessionists. There is no
such thing as secession party or
secession press in the South now.
That has been, has been. For the
future we want a united country, and
some rights in it. We are not the
least bellicose; but we are watchful,
earnest and by no means hopeless
with reference TO our opportunities to
improve our political position.-C Ores.

Now of the Cabinet. The country
has long enough groaned under its
pressure. We want men of more
enlarged views-true statesmen
statesmen who forget, in the general
good, all party feeling; and who, in
every State Of the Union. will re-
build the dying hopes which have
fattered the nation. We want men
who will lead in the great reaction
which is marching to the salvation
Of our people. Relieve us from this
madness about the negro, who must
take his place in the ratio of his
ability, and, in common with all our
people, work out his own salvation,
as brain light brings power. Now
is the grand moment for the Presi.
dent to settle the question which has
been so badly managed that it
threatens our national existence.
There now remains but one sword
that can cut the knot. Once cut,
there will be swept away the mill
tary relationships and the wave of
ignorance that threatens our republi-
canism. Let Mr.. johnson prepare
to deal the blow; but first a new
Cabinet-then strike; and let that
stroke be universal amnesty-am-
nesty to the black, amnesty to the

AN ASYLUM FOR USELESS YOUNG
MEN.-In every community there is
certain per centage Of useless young
men, whose ultimate condition must
excite the sympathy and considera-
rion Of every philanthropist. What
will become of them ? We do not put
the questions as to their future state,
but how will they round off their
earthly existence They have no
visible manse of support, still they
hang on, they vegetate, they keep
above ground. In certain literal
sense, they may be said to live, move
| and have being. They lounge in
offices, promenade the streets, appear
at social amusements, play the gal
liant to the good-natured ladies and
attend to the necessities of lapdogs.
Their more quiet and undemonstra-
tive life may be described as an in.
termittent torpor, in which meals, CT
gars, drinks and sleep mark the
changes. Their existence would be
a mystery, but for their substantial
people, known Familiarity as .'pa,"
"ma," or "better half" who are able
to make provision for the waste and
protection of their bodies in the way
Of clothes and food. Still, ought
these tender young men to be left to
the chances Of parental or domestic
affection ? All are not equally fortu-
nate.
What shall we do when those
whose dependencies are precarious ?
They do not admit of any utilitarian
disposition. In cannibal countries
they could be eaten as a substitute
for veal; their bodies would also
make excellent fertilizers for sterile
lands; but the prejudices of Chris
tan people would revolt at this solu-
ton of the problem. A certain num-
Der could be employed at lay figures
in shop windows to exhibit clothes
on, but the tailors might not have
confidence in them. Most of them
could color meerschaums, but this
business would producelittle revenue.
What, then, shall be done? The
tax now falls upon a few, and ought
to be distributed. We propose, there
fore, State Asylum for useless
young men. An institution of this
kind would be easily filled with those
between the ages of eighteen and
thirty, who should be grouped and
associated together SO that the rude
jostling and frictien Of the working
world would not disturb their deli
cate nerves.
Here they could cultivate their
mustaches, part their hair behind,
and practice attitudes. In this re-
sort, with little enforced exercise
to keep their circulation in a healthy
state, with dolls to play with as a
compensation for the absence of Ia
dies society, these useless young
men could be supported in ease and
comfort, and all industrious people
would be willing to pay the expenses
of this institution rather than bear
the painful solicitude in regard to the
welfare of these superauous members
of society. When provision has been
made by the State for idiots, for the
insane, poor, aged and crippled, is it
not astounding that asylums have
never been erected for still more
helpless class? Let this philan-
thropic enterprise be started at
once Watertomn Retormer.
