SEyMorR in his letter Of acceptance says
The chiefs Of the late rebellion have SUBJ
mitted to the result Of the war, and are nov
quietly engaged in useful pursuits for the
support Of themselves and their families, aud,
are trying BY the force Of their example, to
lead back the people Of the South TO the
order and industry, not only essential to their
we'll being, but 70 the greatness and pros
rerity Of our country.
Wade Hampton was one of the chiefs Of
the late rebellion and helped to nominate
Seymour. In recent speech at Columbia,
South Carolina, Hampton boldly avowed
that he would draw his sword again and fight
rather than submit to the laws Of Congress.
l. .. to the reconstruction acts.
Tha. is the useful pursuit one Of the
chiefs of the rebellion is engaged in.
In letter to the same meeting, Ex-Gov.
Perry counseled the Southern people to
compel the negroes to vote the Democratic
ticket or starve.
This is the example the chiefs OF the re-
bellion offer the South.
DouaLAs stated Ut the opening Of the war
Of the rebellion that there were but two par
ties in this country, patriots and traitors.
The patriot party sustained the flag
Of tho country, and under the lead Of Gem
eral Grant trampled the traitor hosts in the
dust on the bloody fields Of battle.
Now that same traitor host are Iallying
under the lead Of Seymour with Gen. Wade
Hampton, Gen. N. B. Forrest aud others
to put down the patriot party with Grant still
for ts leader, at the polls.
They are still the same parties substantial
~, too, under the same leaders that now are
arraigned at the polls to Eight over the issue
which would have been settled forever on the
battlefield, but for Northern Copperheads
| and renegade Conservatives.

The New York Herald, like the philoso-
pher J. NJ, has defended both sides by
placing itself alternately in the position Of
each and considering matters from the
respective positions. On Wednesday it had
terrible leaning towards the Democrats,
whose comprehensive sympatbies promised
in its opinion, to establish a " brotherhood "
that would make the heart of the South and
that of the North beat responsibility to each
other. On Thursday it changed sides, and
sssaw another sight" GRANTS election was
necessary to avoid a war Of factions
Again, on Friday it took up the constitu-
tional amendment with as much delight as
would q boy tin whistle found amidst
ruins The fourteenth article was the phi
losophers' stone-the long-sought solution
of our national troubles. It appropriates
long article to Heraldish dogmatisms about
the nature and utility of that amendment,
and in q brief paragraph begs Governor
SEYMOUR to endorse it. elf he will sign
that" (the amendment) says the Herald
"he will create the greatest political sensa-
ton ever known in this country" In
deed7 Would he not create profounder
sensation in the Herald establishment if ne
were to pledge to Mr.. BENNETT the mission
to France in case he is elected President
The Herald plainly has an objective point
Paris has long been uppermost with it.

The writer to the Chronicle inveighs
against several of our citizens by name as

Mean time, the National Government
seeks to hnmiliate the intelligent and pro-;

The REPEATED TRICK.-The old Radical
trick of exciting the northern people to
hostility and vindictiveness towards the
South at election time is again revived,
with view to the Presidential election.
The caitiffs and scalawags are calling for
arms everywhere in the South. They say
there is no safety for 3" Union men," and they
must be armed that they may protect them
selves. One after another the States are
represented to be in rebellion-troops and
arms are DANGEROUSLY demanded of the
Federal Government. Every neighborhood
has its emissary who manufactures his
case of horror-of rebels expressing or
numbering "loyal" people-and the whole
pack of concerted fables is scattered broad
cast over the North to alarm and irritate
the northern people and strengthen the
cause of the Radicals. How long will the
inhabitants of the country north of MASON
and DIXON be deluded by these transparent
forgeries

Tennessee, as already announced, cannot

gone to funding principal and interest due
and becoming due for three years. Virgil

Had the South been restored to the Union
