Where the ground is enrich'd
By the blood of the slain,
And watered with tears
For a cause that was vain

Northern Ignorance of the Southern
Situation,


II the people of the North had any
adequate conception of what is going on
in the South, and of what is to be the
inevitable result, they would rise en-
masse and sweep the whole reconstruc.
ton scheme, with all its machinery and
all it's doings, clean out of existence, by
an overwhelming burst of opinion that
would compel its instantaneous abandon
ment But, there is no public opinion,
formed or forming, because there is a
profound ignorance of the facts. The
mass of the people of the Northern
States know scarcely more about the
real condition of society on which these
reconstruction measures are operating,
about the character of the negro popu-
lation, or their capacity to undertake
the carrying on of popular and repub-
lican government, than they know Of
what is the condition of affairs in Abys-
sinia. -New York World.
