he ought to employ some of the
agencies now offering their servi-
ees to do this work for him. The
press should drop politics alto
gether-for no one on either side
of the Potomac reads any political
article with interest or profit
and devote their energies anceas-
ingly to the development of the
agricultural interests of the State.
This only will restore prosperity
and that speedily, if we work
faithfully.

MARTYRDoM FOR REsPEeTABILI-

Howell Cobb of Georota. in q re

Howell Cobb of Georgia, in a re-
cent speech, displayed the most re-
voting partisan rancor. He said j:
''The doors are wide open, wide
enough and broad enough toreceive
everyswhiteman in Georgia, dhless
you should discover him coming to
you creeping and crawling under
the Chicago platform. Upon them
there should be- no mercy. They
have dishonored themselves and
sought to 'dishonor you. Amotha-
n,ettse them. Drive them from the
pale of social and political society,""
This is the way in which Howell
Cobb rewards the government that
showed to. him great mercy. The
rawlings of Cobb and Forrest are
calculated to rouse the party to war.
tits alleged that instructions have
been sent to keep these fire brands
within the pale of reason. Inde-
pendent Journals say it is quite

continue to indorse what Hampton,

eaThe bill in question restores the
franchise to all who were deprived
of it, and sintroduced andpassed
'avowedly to remove complaints 'ot
injustice, and to promote the restor
alton of good feeling throughout
the State. 1t was carried by Re
publican votes. and should have
been accepted by those whom it
benefits as measure at once wise
and just. What, however, is the
answer? Simply, that because Con IN
gress enacted the disabilities, no
thanks are due to the Legislaturs for
removing them! W. =
In this way the Southern oppo-
nents' of reconstruction have alien
ated sympathy, and rendered prac
tical assistance impossible. Every
overture, implying a more or less
complete recognition Of the results
of the war, they have rejected. Ev-
cry effort in their behalf, involving
the exaction Of terms of any kind,
they have spurned. They insisted
on returning to the Union on their
own terms Or on staying out. When
brought in under the, Reconstruc-
ton acts, they protested against dis:
franchisement. And now, disfran-
chisement is removed, they are more
insolent than ever. Nothing will
satisfy them but allowing them to
disfranchise everybody else. The
display Of such temper is not likely
to reconcile the country to the over
throw of reconstruction, or to win
respect for those who are inconven-
fenced by its ,operation.-N, Y.

elected I.ae Democratic Legislature;
By)wuy ofF'lightening the burdens
of taxation that Legislature spent
over 100000 extra Of the, peoples
money during the !irst session., and
