NORTHERN VIEWS,

Dissatisfaction tt fhc heatllono rule or ruin policy of Stevens X Co.,, is not entirely coniinedto the south; there are in the north, q large class of men pyho have eyes and can see that the great moral idea party is leading the country, not into the ways of peace and plenty, but into ruin and bankrupt cy. One who is not afraid to speak, says of this country; "No people of the present time, and none with whose social condition we are made acquaint- cd III history, can present more unms- takable proofs of real prosperity, and rapid and substantial advancement in wealth, civilization, intelligence, and national importance, than ourselves. Tor ages nature has been husbanding resources, tlll now, by the acchmu- lated wisdom and experience of eentu- ries, they can bc turned to tue very best account. The land that we inhab- il is possessed of extreme fertility. and to the virgin richness of the soil we can add all the generating powers which science and experience ;haYe placed within our reach Even in the very forests, which impedethc opera 'tions of our agriculturists, we have an almost inexhaustible store of wealth ; and our mineral treasures, IS yetalmost entirely undevcloped, are of incalcula- ble value. Our natural means of com qifunication are uniivaled and where 'they are incomplete, our own energies are daily supplying the deficiency "a But of what avail arc all these ad- yantages and blessings which Provi- dencc has conferred upon us, when our folly will not permit us to enjoy them sir peace and eontentment? We are slowly but surely drifting into state of things when all tho trade and indus try-of this country must be blighted beneath the curse of bad and reckless egislation. There can be no true hap- piness in store for any people who are entirely governed by passion and preju- dice, and so blinded by them that they persccutc their own flesh and blood During the past six years a party has been i'll power which knows and recog- nizes no law except such as is of it's own making, and whose strange ircon- sistencies have unsettled all our ideas ofa constitutional republic, Pomain-, tain intact the union Of the States we took up arms against the Southern Confedcracv, but now that tho object has been gained, fhc two sections are wider apart than ever, and the gulf be- tween them increases every day. The source of the evil lies in the enactment of laws totally at variance with each other, as in submitting to Legislatures of States proposition to alter and amend the organic law of the nation- one of the highest functions which State can exercise and in afterwards declaring those very same Legislatures incompctcnt tu perform even the low .estn

Cheating at tho Door.

Exactly two years before the rebellion, and before he had become converted to the gospel, BRowNLow delivered lecture at Memphis, in which he uttered the fol lowing Christian sentiments:
 My friends have tried to do my du- ty ia this world, as an accountable being as man and as a Christian minister, and when I depart this life, 1 confidently sx- pect to go to tue mansion of the blessed Yes, my friend when Idie I am pre.sy sure shall 90 straight to heaven. Hay ing fought the good fight, and kept the faith here on earth, l hope to be admitted to the great reward But, my friends. when l have shuffled off this mortal coil and entered into that happy place, and shall look around among the myriads of the just made perfect in that blissiul abode, should I, by any chance, any strange, un- accountable pcradyenture, behcld among thost happy things single, s-k-g ab- olitionist, of any nation, cline or color, be hc Jew, Gentile or Hottentot, l shall at once swear that there has been cheatin' at the door.
 It is evident that the Parson does not expect to go to heaven now, unless there is some wholesale cheating at the door,

THE BEoINNINa OF THE END.

Brownlow has been reelected Gov ernor of Tennessee--thcre ia nothing strange in this, but when we consider that Tennessee was once Southern State, and that large majority of her citizens are to-day opposed to radical ism, and that Brownlow is the negro Radical representative, there is signiii- cance in it, and it can be viewed as the beginning of policy that will bring sorrow and disgrace deeper and darker than that which now rests upon the nation. The government of Tennessee is now in the hands of the negro that is, his vote will make successful the party to whom it is given. Such will be the condition in every Southern State, that may be admitted upon the radical basis; this is made doably sure by inc Improvement, ( ?? made or about to be made upon the reconstruction bin. When we consider that the voting negro population of the Southern States is near seven hundred thousand, and there is in sympathy with these, near six hundred thousand in the North, it is easily concluded that this vote will be a great national influence. Then comes the trouble. The negroes through their leaders are clamoring for office. They say if they do the voting for the republican party, that party must share with them the offices. They have an eye upon the yice-presi- ,dency, and say it is but justice to them, that the next yice-president shall be negro. A northern writer says upon this subject: "In that view the negro is right, and it is to be hoped he will put the party to that test. If that de-
 mand is refused, they win consider the republican party dishonest in it's pro-
 fessions, and vote against il in the next Presidential election. There are seve- ral negroes fitted for the position of vice-prcsidcnt, and the negro need never be ashamed to insist upon the Republican party placing their name upon the ticket IS the condition of re- 'ceWing their support. Such an act would complete the triumph of right and justice, so far as the equality of race is concerned. It would also put an end to the trimming intriguing con- ,dnct of white seekers for that position. Such demand resolntely backed by the negro will be sure to succeed, as the Republican party could not do without their yote.' This is what rad -icalism promises to the States that come within the pale of their influence. This is why we say there is q signif- canoe in the negro radical triumph in in our sister State. Shall it ever be so with us? live say and mean no, then let us set about 10 prevent it. The ne- gro is an important element in the na- 'tion; we must learn to appreciate him in his place; to say, act with him as to convince him that his true friend is not the man who promises and never ful- fills, but the man that he has always known, and knows he can trust. We must adopt an active policy, if we would escape the evil suspended above 'us.-"O, TEMPoRA! Q, MoREs!"

Now that the season is almost over, we can say that the crops throughout the country, arc far better than they were last year. From our western and southern exchanges, we learn that the wheat crop is excellent. In Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Tennessee, the corn crop is very good. Cotton is looking well, considering the season. In our own section, the corn is very good, where it has been properly worked. We heard one gentleman say a few days since, that he would make four thousand bushels, and that too of the finest corn he ever saw. Altogeth- CT, it promises to be year of plenty, so tar as bread is concerned.
