For the REPUBLICAN,.
TILE GpIRIT OF ENREINENESS


There is nothing better than forgv,
ing spirit. One that can triumph oyer
the passions, that can feed the hungry
enemy, and give drink to the thirsting
foe. But there are provisos to almost
every rule Of conduct, and this rule of
forgiveness has its conditions that must
always be taken into consideration.
When person Is arrested for any
great crime, and is brought to trial, we
should not harbor any spirit of malice
or revenge toward him, even though
his crimes have been committed against
US We must forgive him, but at the
same time 1t is as much our duty to
punish the crinlej and as the only way
in which that crime can be punished is
through the criminal 1t is therefore our
duty to punish him.
That arch traitor, Davis, has commit
ted crime against the laws of our coun-
try, the punishment for which is death.
lie has been arrested and confined, for
some reason, he has not been brought to
trial. Therefore, some persons who
seem to have good deal of the milk Of
human kindness, have kindly volunteers
ed to 60 bal, ,and the criminal is released,
perhaps never to be brought to trial.
Now,as to his release on bail we have
nothing to say. But we do object to
those releasing HIM who were formerly,
most bitterly opposed to him, and who
called loudcst tor the punishment Of his
crime. To see Republican releasing
one who aimed the death blow at Res
publicanism, is to say the least, degra.
ding. And we also object to these men
charging those who call for his punish
ment with being actuated only by the
narrow spirit of malice and revenge
against fellow being. We have no
personal feeling hostile to Jefferson
DAVIS, but in the name of God and hut
maulty, we demand that his crime be
punished, aye punished sevCrely-wilh
nothing less than death
The spirits Of fifty thousand murdered
men call for the punishment OF hun, who
by his mere word could have caused the
prison gates to open, and the captured
to go free. The shadows of death that
cover the thousands OF homes in our
land call to heaven for vengeance. The
very stones that resound to the step OF
the soldiers, crutch lift their voices to
join in the demand for justice. The
brave Boysin Blue who met, fought
and conquered rebellion, demand tNat
they shall not have fought in vain. Say
you these are moved only by personal
malice! Who'is il makes this charge!
One who has grown rich by recording
the history of the blooiy harvest that
death has reaped in our country.
Let Republicans beware They have
the power to punish this crime, and it
they do 1t not, the power will be taken
from them and given to those who are
more worthy. The success of the party
depends upon 1t. Let traitors howl, and
copperheads hiss, and silly fools vent
their splene upon us, but let us still be
firm in furnishing crime. j.

enough for them, and because he will
not force negroes upon jures. The

NORTHERN INGRATITUDE.

Very few persons have any idea of
what this Radical Government has done,
and Is doing all along, for the South -
|. Is ordinarily supposed by many good
kind ol people that we have been in
some unknown kind If way abusing aud
injn'ng that section OF our country, op.

proud spirit OF its chivalry, destroying
its trade, and insulting It's white popula-
tion, THIS is the current rebel ulula-
tlon and the daily shrek of the Demo.
cracy, although neither gives any very
specific instances of oppression.
The truth is, remarks the Press, we are
doing more for this land, so lately in
desperate rebellion, than most govern
menis are doing for the most loyal popu-
latlon, We are earning anew our WELL
earned title ofthe best government the
world ever saw. We arc building the
railroads of the South. We have fur
nlshed them abundantly with rolling
stock and material. We are paving for
the post offices and post routes through
the vast Southern wilderness, We are
paying taxes for war to enfranchise
that section Of our land. and teach the
population true ideos of political econo-
my. We are appropriating largo sums
of money for their schooling through
our Freedmen's Bureau. We are send
ing shiploads of food and clothing and
thousands of dollars to their suffering
and starving poor, and lastly, what few
perhaps know or even suspect, we are
endeavoring to save their crops in com,
ing years, and enhance the value of their
land, by Improving their leyee system.
