FURTH r EVIDENCE OF ALARM.

] IVA ~ - fAOhIOL VI Ah2h4At
The Boston Post Seymour paper, can not
conceal its alarm at the effect produced in the
North by the too free and too early utter
ances Of its allies down South; and it
therefore warns them that " their declama-
ton may run into an excess OF expression,
and afford an opportunity to their enc
mics in the North to augment prejudice
against them; at this work the Radicals
are already laboring with all the ingenuity
they possess This fact the South should
| keep in view, and not afford help to those
who desire to prOlong the alienation be-
tween the North and the South by utter
ing words that may be distorted into a
meaning adverse to the peace of the Union.
The heated orators at the South do not
properly represent the great mass of the
people for whom they assume TO speak
The sentiment among the people there is
for quiet and peace; a restoration Of old
associations; the revival of business inter-
course and obedience to constitutional
law. Extreme men in both sections are
obstacles to this consummation."
This was no doubt written after the
editor OF the Post had perused some such
article as the following fine specimen of
the loyal and tolerant Seymour Democracy
of Mississippi, which we extract from the
Brandon Republican:
