TIE pRESLDEHTS ORGAN

This venerable newspaper aI w "siiiiStO"'
now in its 9th year, favors its readers with
new prospectus. 1t is called Conservative
paper, and the calm dignity, the stately STYLE
and the exhaustive eruditiOn OF Its longtime
editors, Gales & Seaton, are not yet forgotten
The depth to which it has fallen since 1t be-
came the mouth piece of President johnson
can be inferred from these elegant extracts
which we transcrbe from its present prospec-
tus: "BlacL Radicals of the foolish, demented,
"or fiendsh ype"-" stupendOus acts OF
usurpation, corruption, and protigacy -
"the animus of the Black Radicals as
"to measures of legislation seems to be
"still bitter, vindictiye, cruel, and per-
"secuting -" another atrOCity OF the Black
"Radicals in Congress -" the doom OF rotten
Radicaismr-"temerty or audacity in criminal
" design" y" Black Radicals and rotten Radical
"ismr-" the dishonored fragments OF the usurp-
"ing, corrupt, and profigate party OF kadicaI-
"ism." 1t concludes as follows:
"The editorial staff OF The IntHigneer viii continue to
be In number and ability all that Is necessary W Iu4 us
cuss the leading questions Of public polcy''
All those who desire to have the leading
"ouestionsr discussed with the "abiity" in
dicated in the above extracts. can obtain the
Daily at 80 per year, Invariably in advance"
Evidently the Presidents speeches, when
Swinging round the circle" are the lnspira,
ton of his fayorite paper; and Its editorlal
staff. enyious of Brick Pomeroys large clrcu-
lation, are determined not to have Their
liability" in this line hidden under bushel
hereafter
Its leading editorial in the same issue is de-
voted to "the condition of the South" which
is painted, financially and industrially, in the
darkest colors. All its wretchedness, however,
is attributed by the editorial staff" to having
been "prostrated and crushed by the bad men
"who now WELD the powers of the Govern
"ment-men at whose upas touch every great
Industry withers as if by some deadly blight"
And it calls on "the lpeople of the North to
"move promptly in this matter, to consider the
L" evil and to bring to account Its guilty au-
L" thors. Argument on these hardened men is
thrown away. BY their fears only can their
career of crime be arrested"
The failure of crops in the South is, OF
course, the work of these hardened men,"
The decline in the prico of cotton in the mar
kets of the world is charged upon these
&" guilty authors.o The overlooking from the
leyees cut by the Rebels, must be q the fendish
act OF DldCk hdtuCdir' Nv "PpA"pA'"N'NNb
last Winter of half a million OF dollars, raised
by taxes in the North, to feed the destitute
whites of the South, is one of the "yindictiye"
acts of "rotten Radicals" The Freedmen's
Bureau, which has, by indisputable statistics,
relieved as many whites as blacks in ma
iority of tho Southern States is another of the
persecutingn measures of this corrupt and
"prohigatc party" The overwhelming ma
iority in the House for the repeal Of the cotton
tax is still another of these bitter" and
"cruel measures of legislation" And the
absence of all confscation and punishment for
treason is, of course, "anOther !atrocity." 1t is
such food as this The National hiteIligeneer
provides for its Southern readers, to promote
concord and peace we suppose!
Let the men of the South realize, on the con-
trary, that their former slaves are now men.
Let them work themselves, az our Northern
farmers do, as many hours per day as their la
borcrs Let them abandon their combinations
to prevent those who work for them from vot-
ing as they please. Let them turn from such
guides as The IntelligeRcer, only less pernicious
than the leaders who bankrupted and devas-
tated the South by their insane and wicked
Rebellion. and brighter and happier day will
dawn upon them.
