Their Spirit.

Instead Of feeling regret al the prospect Of tho
depreciation Of Tennessee bonds and the injury Of
the States Interest,", every rebel newspaper in Ten
nessee has expressed eznltatiou. Sveb Is the spirit
Of modern Democracy the old spirit Of 1851 which
ipauearatod rebellion; the iulernsl spirit Of rule
or rain which has brought AL the taxation upon
tho country Of which Democrats complain, and
which would, were it in power increase ton fold all
the evils affecting the country.

/" We will have Peace"

Gen Grant said in his letter of acceptance
'tLet US have Peace" He has been elected
to the Presidency upon that issue. He now
speaks after the election in strain which is
fit sequel to his immortal plea for peace.
The telegraph informs us that he addressed
procession at Belvidere, Ohio, the other
day, in these prophetic words:
g Gentlemen: / see many of you in uniforms.
You laid them off three years ago. You can
now lay them off again, and WE WILL HAVE
PEACE. Good night"
Those Rebels who think Gen. Grant viii
become another Andy johnson, rendering
the Presidency a Kissing and a by word, and
casting odium upon loyalty at the South,
would do well to ponder these words. Let
them take care how they foment rebellion
and treason, for these are no idle words.
The loyal heart of the nation thrills at the
elcctic words, I'VE WILL HAVE PEACE"

Tic ku Klux Klnn.

What is tie origin of the = Ku KlnX
Clan r 1t will be observed that the official
announcements are always in The name of
the Grand Cyclop." This name "Cyclop,'
led the writer to the following reflection,
and, as he believes. just conclusion
Cyclops is frnm CycIopes- luke in Greek,
csfeutes. meaning "a circle" The Cyclops
descended from the three sons of C.plus and
ierrG-heayen and earih-whose names
severaly were Arges, Broatss, and Ste,upes
The interpi, cation of these three names in
the order which they stand, is Arges-a
white serpent, bright, shining, glttering;
lSrontes-thunder crash, roar, peal !; Sterops
from sterop lightning. The Cyclops in
hablted the western part of Sicily, ever kept
their bodies mystically covered, their faces
concealed in masks, in the center of which
was bat one hole, so that they were thought
to have but one eye in the center Of the up
per part Of their faces, by the terror stricken
people. -e.st e.tis
They were believed to be all powerful,
and went about taking human life destroy
ing and devastating all kinds of property,
fortifcations. and even whole cities and
communities. ss - ga
Now. take the orIgin-Kuklo In the
first two letters you have Ku; in the first,
second. and third, Kux; and in the whole
i've, Kuklo-a circle or Clan" :" hence in
the whole, Ku Kux Clan" Now take all
tie facts in connection with this most dam
gerous organization, their manner of dress.
being covered with sheets and masks; and
of assembling whether in doors or mounted
On hoFse back, in Il circle; they only re-
cognizing the rights of aehite men; carrying
always giittering weapons; shooting IN the
dark by voleys, representing Lightning and
thunder, and you caEnot fail TO recognize
the true origin, intent, and the meaning of
the "Ku Kux Can,' which must have
originated among men oil education, and the
highest intelligence.
Ii should be remarked in conclusion, that
to observe consonancc and harmony in the
word clan" there being no &C" In the
Greek alphabet, the :" K has been adopted
by the order, so that the initials stand
& K K. ..
But if you take another Greek word
Aagge from kla=o to clang) a loud shrill
noise, sound orcry clank, din, creak, twang,
clanor. shout, shrek, by the well known
idiom of the Greek language; in the first
syllable OF this word klagge, you have
kian," which would be very appropriate
and significant of the organized body and
its purposes.

prietorsllip, much larger income And the
fact that the planter walks to the polls be-
side him, will not prevent him from receiving
a good round rental for his land.
But if the South wishes to grow rapidly,
she must 60 to work at once. There is no
fair reason in the world why the Yankees
should absorb all the valuable immigration
as fast as it comes in. Let us see to it, now
that we have something like Yankee laws
over us, that we also have Yankee sagacity
and enterprise.

good advice to whites and colored. Chapel Hill
