lngs of the people, or the subversiOT
of the government, SO he may reaE
and rule. He was a traitor to the
Union, a traitor to the Confederacy
and would sell the honor of the peO
pie who trusted him-all for greed
and for place--tirSt, from his own
people and then from his peoples
0ppreSSOrS. How can such a man be
moved by the voice of honor or be
made to listen to the appeals OF
| patriotism /? How can he, whose
ambition seeks only his own good,
be turned from his purpose by the
exhibition of wrongs to others ?
The fiery flames of sulphurious
hell could not burn the lusts of pow
er and peIf from the minds of ambi-
tious Luciter and his fallen followers.
How, then, can truth, though naked
stripped--or sarcasm, though born
III gall-or woolng appeals, though
they come from millions wronged-
be expected to open to the mind, or
reach the conscience, or shake the
purpose of the hardened wretch
this political Lucifer-whO is willing
to make a Pandemonium OF his coun-
try, because,
To reign is worth ambition, though in
He'll"
But the wise, the good the patriotic
and the truly brave will take warn,
ing. These alone can save the cOun-
try. The thoughtless, the selfish :,
the fanatical and the ambitious are
its destroyerS. This mad attempt
by military measures to force an un-
resisting people into self degradation
for no purpose but party aggrandize
ment, must produce fearful calami
ties which no pen can describe.
Actual events will shame my
language for very weakness in this
feeble attempt to forecast the future.
But from all these horrors there is ii
way of escape. There is bit one wdy.
Trust to no party, listen no longer
to men who have deceived you, who
have been false to every promise;
faithless to every principle, and
treacherous to every government.
Return, oh, my deluded and pros
trate countrymen, return to the
Constitution 1t alone is safe. 1t
is safe for all colors and safe from
all dangers. Every blessing comes
from its observance, every woe from
its violation. Let us all resolve to
accept whatever is according to its
provisions, and reject everything
that is contrary thereto, and then
fear nothing. They alone are dis
loyal and traitors who violate the
Constitution, and they the vllest OF
traitors who use the power of the
government to aid and shield them

THE FINALITY HUMBUG.-The
following, clipped from the New York
Day Book, shows what the promise
of finality is worth:
"As we suspected. Who could
trust them? The military abomina-
tion is, after all, not to he a finality.
The Nouh American, which is as
black as ebony, insists that mo final
ity arrangement shall be set up to
prevent the action OF Congress. We
prefer to he frank in this matter. .
That's right. FranknesS is what we
want. There has been too much dou-
BILE dealing and shufling; but the
cards are played at last, and we now
know the tricks you count on. The
knaveS don't always win; remember
that. You had MT the pluck to try
JEFF. Davis for treason, and we have
got YOU on that, sure. 1t was bad
lay, and the egg wouldn't hatch.

ers nearer home, would seem to indi,
cate that the Radical policy is to be
carried out in the reconstruction OF
the Southern States-that the policy
of the Presdent-a policy of justice
and humanity-is to be totally ignOr-
ed.
We have labored in our columns
to prove that our people are not de
serving of these harsh and iniquitOuS
measures. We have stated that the
only sure way of curing the ills to
which the South has been subjected
is to let it alone politically, and to
aid it by pecunlary means-that it
was not wise to intetere with its local
administration, laws and customs.
But time has shown that this poll
cy is just what the Radicals will not
have. They are as determined now,
and, we think, even more, as they
ever were, to keep up an agitation
| in the South between the negroes
and the whites, and to array one
race against the other in active. un-
relenting hostility. This they claim
it to be right to do, and if the poor
South evInce a dislike to it and at
tempt measures to protect itself
from this despotic interference, the
Federal Generals are at hand to Ell
force a compliance with radical ideas.
and to compel oHr people to agree to
and practice radical teachings. And
this is called reconstructing the
South Why, this is precisely what
the Gar of Russia is doing in Poland,
and the whole civilized world com
plains of it as cruel, tyrauniCal and
despotic. This policy is that of the
old feudal despotS. a brave and ell.
lightened people will never become
used to it. The time will never come
when the Southern people will acqui-
esce in the degradation and humilia-
ton to which they are being subject
ed. Time, instead of wearing away
the sense of outrage and wrong, will
only increase the bitterness Of feeling
which the endurance of outrage has
produced. So it always has been in
every subjected people, and so it will
ever be while human nature animates
mankind.

Memphis Appeal.
In these few, short, terse sentences
is world of argument which all the
Orrs and Browns and PattonS in the
Southern provinces cannot contute
or evade.j
The idea which is here enunciated
with so much clearneSS and power,
covers the whole ground of duty, the
whole field in controversy, and no
Southern man who once graSpS it
can hesitate an instant as to his
course.
Congress claims absolute pOrer
over the people and the provinces Of
the South, and might enact in the
! form of law whatever system OF local
governments over us should seem
proper in the sight of a majority of
its members; but the radical leaders,
who control Congress, know very
well that government thus imposed
upon the people of this section,
would be illegal, and their acts would
be declared null and rOjd in any
court before which they should be
brought, and have adopted thepend-
ing so-called reconstruction plan as
means of forcing us TO distranchiSe
thousands of our most intelligent
citizens, to enfranchise other thouS-
ands utterly unfit to exercise the
right of suffrage, to convict the
pureSt and best among us of perjury
in the adoption of the proposed con
Stitutional amendment. to consent to
perpetual misrepresentation in the
national councils by excluding there
from all who could represent us, TO
approve all the measures Of outrage
and oppression to which we have
been subiected-of forcing us to put
ourselves on record as doing all this
of Our oicn free cW and accord.
If we do all this, if we call con-
vention, and frame and ADOPT a con
Stitution in accordance with the
recent acts of Congress, ace make the
gOrerRmeRt thus established oar O1cR,
and no matter what changes there
may be in the political sentiment of
the North, no matter what relief
might otherwise be sought through
the court we cut off ourselves by our
onw action. Louisville Journal.

LONGSTREET.-The Chicago Times
of the 18th has the following:
The Radicals are petitioning the
President to pardon Gen. Long treet
He has experienced that change OF
heart" which Sumner declares to bG
necessary before an eX-rebel can be
come truly loyal. The newspapers
which not long ago spoke OF men with
such antecedents as Longstrcet as
red handed traitors, rebels, murder
ers, etc, now discover in him a sur
prising quantity of virtue and patri-
otiSm. lie has Joined the Radicals,
and this fact atoneS for all his past
otfenSeS.
Probably Longstrtet is sincere in
the convictions expressed by him i'll
his recent letter, which has elected
from the Radical press warm com
mendation, but as soon as he becomes
acquainted with the character of his
political associates, he will discard
them. There is too much manhood
about him to permit him to ally him
self with the Radical party when in
formed of its purposes and the men
leading it. With him, distance
lends enchantment to the view," but
if large numbers of kellys visit the
South this summer, the illusion will
be dispelled. He is troubled with a
slight attack of f"nigger on the brain"
Kelley is the proper doctor for his
treatment.

4 REBEL HORSE.-The Danville

.(Va.) Times relates the following:
We learn from a friend, who is a
gentleman of unquestIonable veraci-
ty, that DR.. Lee, of Halifax, Va, has
a horse which exhibits the greatest
and most astonishing aversion to
blue colors. This horse served in
the army, and seems to have acquired
his distaste for the color while in mil
itary service, as he showed no such
disposition anterior to the war. He
will not allow any one to approach
him in a blue coat or jacket, but gets
frantic and wants to tear it Oft. On
one occasion, while crossing a ferry,
a negro, with a blue Jacket on, hap
pened to get near him, and he jump
ed at him with a tiger-like terocity,
and seizing the garment in his teeth,
tore it clear off. 1t is no less remark
able that he is as gentle as lamb if
you approach him in grey or any col
or other than blue.

NORTHERN ESTIMATE OF GEN
LEE

Mr. Winston, of the New York
Times, who visited Gen. Lee recent
ly, writes of him as follows:
That Gen. Lee will figure in his
tory, when 1t comes to he written
full light and without passion OF
prejudice, as very able commander
and a Skilltul, methodical soldier.
who made several admirable defen-
slve campaigns, fought two OF three
brilliant aggressive actions, protI act
ed the war on the limited theater of
Virginia for four years by a careful
husbandry of his resources, and final
ly succumbed only to greatly supe-
rlor numbers, may, ! conceive, he
readily conceded. That he will figure
as the South now figures him, i'll the
light of tirst-claSS captain, may,
believe, be fairly doubted.
The writer then endeavors to show
that Hobert Lee, the noblest man and
greatest soldier and patriot OF she
South was simply common place
general. Yet all acknowledge that
he was the greatest genus Of the
Southern army, and We leave it to
the world to decide whether or moi
that army contained bright aud
splendid intellects or common place
