How Radical "Outrages" are Manufac-
tured

We have something from Fayetteville
that will do to tell a few nights since
about half of the Radical strength of that
town, armed generally with rocks and
sticks, left their usual hiding places and
made an assault upon the other halfof their
party, throwing all sorts of missiles, break
ing window glass, DC, but studiously abb
staining from indicting any personal inju-
ry. The party attacking fled precipitately
to an adjoining cornfeld and sought shell
ter for the night.
Before the confusion and excitement had
subsidized, some of the conservative citizens
anxious to ascertain who were engaged in
the affair, approached near enough to the
conflict to identify both parties and found
that they were undoubtedly of the Radical
persuasion. After little further investi-
cation it was also ascertained that the af-
fair was grand Radical ruse, gotten up
for the express purpose of furnishing an
excuse to General Cooper to send a squad
of his loyal militia to Fayetteville. We do
not imagine that this ''outrage," is likely
to figure with the usual astounding head
letters, in the columns of our Radical city
cotemporary.-

ground that the revenue law of Congress

WM. II. SEWARD, Secretary of State.
A Startling PrOgramme-No Democrats
to be Admitted to the Next
Congress.

Congress.
The National LatelLigencer of Saturday
conner to hand with the following editorial
expose of Radical purposes:
According to Senator Wade, Kentucky
is rebel because her people would not elect
Radicals to Congress. Therefore, the
men who were recently elected to Congress
are rebel, and are to be excluded from
their seats. This would put that great
State, which sent far more native Union
soldiers to the war than Massachusetts,
in the same situation as were the ten rebel
States before Congress established militia
ry despotism over them.
Mr. Wade, to be consistent, must apply
the same rule to the other border States,
like Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia,
and perhaps MISSOURI. The report is 60
ing the rounds of the papers, that Senator
Sherman has said that the next Congress
would be entirely Radical. So remarka
BILE declaration would indicate that no
Democrat elected from any Congressional
district Of the North is to be admitted to a
seat. Long since we predicted that this
would be the landing place of the Radical
disunion party.
/ It will be next held by these Radical
disunion traitors, that if Northern States
are SO rebellious or disloyal as to be unf
to be represented in Congress, then their
local governments are disloyal and rebel
lious, and military despotisms shall be es-
tablished over them. Why not extend the
rule to Connecticut as well as to Kentucky
Why not station troops in such a Demo
cratic" or ''copperhead," or "rebeP' Con
gressional District as Berks, in Pennsyl
vania To this we must come at last, /
the Wade-Sherman idea is to rule. All o
their class talk of going on in the logic 0
events, to the establishment of a true R,
publican Government, by breaking over
State barriers. Here is an issue of vita
importance to the great central States
where the struggle of the people agains

Why Home Enterprises Does Not Pros
OeT

per.
It will not do to expect purchasers and
consumers6o buy inferior articles at high
er prices, for the simple reason that they
are Southern or homemade. Nor must we
expect fhe public to be familiar with the ex-
istence and qualities of things that have
really not been brought to their notice at
all Let the manufacturer do his work well
and at a reasonable rate, and then offer it
to the people. Unless these conditions are
first performed the public are not to blame
for looking elsewhere to supply their wants.
But with the conditions of good quality
and fair price, the manufacturer of produ-
Ger has right to ask the encouragement
of his neighborg aud fellow-ciLizens. Yet
he must ask IT, The truth is. that when it
is asked at all, it is done in SO vague gen
eral a way as to fall unheeded upon the ear.
The newspapers sPasmOdically invoke their
readers to foster Southern arts and industry;
but how, where, in what and wherefore
are still the unresolved questions. The
manufacturers do not put their wares before
the buyers in an efficient manner. IHey do
not advertise. They look for the people to
know what they have not had OpPOrtuni-
ties of learning.
We are amazed occasionally to see some
local paper enumerate the various strug-
Cling enterprises in its vicinity. We were
not aware Of their existence before, and they
fade from our memory before we hear them
mentioned again. There Is the secret Of
| failure. Yankee inventions and notions
are pressed on public attention Persistently,
and in every striking and alluring manner,
| and they become as familiar to everybody as
/ household words. Southern manufacturers
