LET THE SoUTH BEWARE. One OF
the first objects hoped to be accom-
pllshcd by the recent military recon
struction bill, is division of the peo-
pie Of the South into parties in
relation to it. The New York Eren-
ing Post thus states the case:
The movements for reconstruc-
ton under the Act Of Congress will
produce one very much needed re-
slilt-they will divide the Southern
people into parties once moro. There
must henceforth be two political
parties there, rs tLcrc are and ALWAYS
have becn III the Northern States;
and by means of the negro vote.
these two parties Will be in every
State so nearly balanced in strength
that each Will have to respect the
others rights, and each vii be able
to insist upon its own rights. This
once done, the Southern States must
inevitably and quickly advance in
liberal sentiments and i'll love of
country-for it needs only free dis
cussion-thorough discussion--to en-
able the people everywhere to see the
right. to recognize their best inte-
rests, and to lead them to cast away
the false leaders whose stupid blum
ders and criminal ambition brought
such ruin upon the Southern States. y

cal men insist that II is; unligniticd to ad-

that the means of protecting and rcs,orinc q

FINANCIAL EFFECT OF TIE RECON

FINANCIAL EFFECT OF TIE RECON
sTRUCT1oN LAw-While the recon-
struction measures were passing through
Congress, an accidental furry in Wall
street put up the price of gold to 40,
and the National L1teUigencer instant
" sounded the alarm that such poll
cy would ruin the business of the coun-
try. The Journal Of Commerce told a
wonderful story of some English gen.
tlemen who had come here to invest
two millions sterling in tue purchase of
cotton lands, but who abandoned
their purpose, in view of the uncertain
ties of the future since the designs of
certain Radical politicians have become
more fully disclosed" The rapid de-
cline Of the price of gold since the
passage Of the act is showing the fool
ishness of the attempted scare, and
proving that what is really wanted is
the settlement of a policy. Confidence
will now have a solid foundation to
rest upon.-N. Y. Post.

"YASKEE DOODLE" II SPAIN.-Mr.
Bryant, in closing his last letter from
Spain, mentions the following:
[ have mentioned the Basques, and l
have an incident to relate which con-
meets them, curiously enough, with our
own country. Some time since, when
Mr.. Perry, secretary of the American
Legation at Madrid, was in one Of the
Basque provinces, he heard n band
playing their national airs. The Bas-
ques have preserved whatever is peeu-
liar to them, their language, their Gus
toms, and many of their political rights,
from the earliest period in which they
are known to history; their national
music is claimed to be Of the same an
tiquity. After the band had played
several other airs it struck up" Yankee
Doodle" the very tune, III every note,
which is so familiar to American ears.
Mr.. Perry Immediately claimed it as
our national air. "It is one of our old
tunes,' said a gentleman to whom he
spoke, "and 1 can convince you of the
fact. For hundreds of years it has
been 4 popular air among u.s." The
gentleman afterward made good his
assertion by showing Mr.. Perry 4
manuscript of great antiquity which
contained the identical musical notes of
Yankee Doodle"
