R1cHMoNp, Va, February %, 1867.

RICHMOND, Il, FEBRUARY 80, icoi'
To the Editors of the Daily Dispatch:
If you "wished your eyes open, and did
not prefer them Shut" you could perceive
that it is not because the "civil rights
bill has been violated in three cases |;
nor is it because "the reports OF horrible
and unpublished outrages perpetrated upon
freedmen, which are Systematically manu-
featured by the enterprising correspond
ents of their newspapers" that "the
northern people have come to the conclu-
sion that the southern people must be
ruled by rods of from; but that it is
chiefly because the southern people JUS
tify their course in the late rebellion.
Their conversion is without contrltlon;
they have stopped only to conquer, ana
as a natural sequence they would renew
their efforts to overthrow the Governments
whenever they should deem themselves
sufficiently strong to render success pro;
bable. Hence It is that they must De ruled
by " military law until they are shorn OF
their strength for purposes OF mischief.
This edict is spontaneous outgroWtn
from the loyal element OF the nation, ana
ia as irreyersible as the decree OF death,
and as memorable as the grave.
ANKEE.
or course "Yankee" believes this to
be q free government; yet he acknow-
lodges that It's present rulers are worse
than the worst tyrants that ever ruled
any other country; for it was never before
required Of any people under the sun
that they should do more than obey the
laws and be quiet citizens. The Yankees
would have us-will we, will we-admire
the Government even if it deprived us Of
every attribute Of freemen. Our cores
pondent ought to, know that while it is
possible for us to submit to oppression, it
Is not possible that we should love our OPP
pressors.
