PGomsING Coon BEIL>yIoR-Th,
democratic papers Of the South generally
show an excellent spirit in their com.
ments upon the election Of Gen. Grant
This, from the Macon Ga" Telegraph. i.
one specimen Of many OF the same sort
Ii the general is disposed to give Us q

selfish and turbulent faction, he
can bind the South to- linn Us with hook.

wants to feel that she can rest confidently
upon the beuehcicnt disposition and pur
poses of the general government. This
feeling will insure the most active and
Jealous cooperation upon the part of til,
people with the federal government. Thi.
feeling would dispense at once with al
