and none are more welded to the simple
republican plan of government than the
defendants of those noble patriots of the
Cape Fear, who did SO much and suffered
so much to hand down to their children
the blessings of American liberty.
Law-abiding and faithful to their obliga-
tions-scornfully rejecting all propositions
to sacrifice their own honor, submitting to
Injustice and humiliation when exercised
by the strong arm of power under the show
of legal authority-our people stand to-day
grander in their defeat and their honest
poverty, than in their hours of success and
wealth.
Conscious of their own integrity and
the honesty of their purpose. our people
have submitted, under the protest of their
scorn and contempt, to many petty acts OF
tyranny and villainy, upon the part of Off
GERS who have, from time to time, been
placed over them. We have seen and wit
ness every day, here and elsewhere IN
the State, and in the South, officer of the
United States government basely prostitu-
ting the functions of their offices for party
purposes, lending their aid to foment dis
cord and trouble between the races, and
racking their brains to prevent reconcilia-
ton between the sections. In fact, the ex
people are glad to recognize justice and
impartiality in their military rulers by a
demonstration of their approval.
When, therefore, the Hon. GEORGE
DAVIS referred to our Post Commander, in
his eloquent speech in the Theatre few
evenings since, in terms Of commentator,
while confessing to the merest personal
acquaintance, which met the hearty en-
dorsement of the crowded house, and when
the same enthusiasm was shown on Mon
day night, when Col. STRANGE again re-
ferred to Col. FRANZ in complimentary
terms, was no endorsement of military
rule, but fitting return for the justice,
impartiality and independence with which
that officer has conducted the disagreeable
duties to which he has been assigned. Col.
FRANK heart must be of stone did he not
highly appreciate these demonstrations.
Representing those who have returned our
manly submission by cowardly oppression,
the agent of system of government which
is abhorrent to our education and our judg-
ment, he has so discharged his duty as to
merit and receive the approval of his gov
eminent and win the esteem of our people
1t gives us pleasure to chronicle these
facts, equally complimentary to the good
Judgment and high-toned bearing of the
officer and of our citizens.

Dead Sen FrnatS.

Radicalism tries every device to betlay
and deceive our people into the support of
their infamous Constitution. They have
sugar-coated their bitter pill to make it
palatable, but to no effect. Our honest,
virtuous and proud people know too well
what dishonor is embraced in their free
schools-what burdens are to be carried
under their equal and just tacation-wnat
miserable and shallow treachery is con-
tanned in their measures for relief, lien LaaO
and homestead. They will not touch the
unclean thing:

The Late President Lincoln and GEN. Lee.
Mr.. Beecher has been heavily assailed
because at public meeting in New York,
some time since, he spoke we'll of the per-
sonal character of Gen. Lee. What will
these assailants say about the opinion of
Mr.. Lincoln upon Lee, and especially when
they get that opinion from source they
must credit so unquestioningly, viz a
colored woman. Mrs. Kecklep, the colored
servant of Mr.. Lincoln's family, says that
on the very morning of the assassination,
President Lincoln took Up a portrait of
General Lee, scanned the face thoughtfully.
and said st is good face it is the face
of noble, noble, brave man. am glad
that the war is over at last" Looking up
at his son Robert, he continued ''Well,
my son, you have returned safely from the
front. The war is now closed and we will
soon live in peace with the brave men that
have been fighting against US. trust that
the era of good feeling has returned with
the close of the war, and that henceforth
we shall live in peace" We're President
Lincoln not dead, he would, for such say
ings and thoughts as these, be denounced
as a first-cass, double-dyed- Traitor by
those who have now the hypocrisy to pre-
tend reverence for his memory.
