MURDERS NoRTH AND soUTH.-The New York
Herald Of Monday, in an editorial on this subject,
after giving brief outline of the murders lately
committed in the South. says:
SO mucn for the Southern record OF murder,
and we have not noted the half of IL. Butwhst OF
the murder record of the North? Perhaps II We we're
to strike fair balance there woud not be found SO
much difference after all. The apparent difference
il that homicide at the South Is invariably put 10
the credit of politics, and in exciting times like
these there is much made Of II by partisan news
papers. We are told that 10 one single county OF
New Hampshire there are now awaiting trial no
lees than five murderers. In our own city homi-
cides are almost a. numerous as the nights 10 the
year. New England furnishes, according TO the
record, nearly a. r1any msrderers in proportion
to the population as the Southern States.
The moral of all this Is that while Radical recon
struction cannot check the progress OF crime IN
the Southern states, but rather fosters II, so New
England Purifapism cannot elevate the moral
condition Of It's people above the use OF the knifes
the pistol and the poison cup. The cause OF the IN
crease Of murder In the South Is to be traced to
the war of races. the inevitable result Of Radical
policy. In New England 1t belongs to the
war OF bad passions, TO irreligion and intem-
perance. No plea Of political evaporation
can be put in there, for Everything Is serene
and pleasant in New England; no military
governors, no offensive negro supremacy, for New
England takes care that the negro is kept 10 his
zeus exists there to provoke conflict and keep
mems temper up like quills upon the fretful por-
cupine ~ and yet, with all the hideous reports Of
murder and violence In the Southern States, SD
as they are II would appear from recent state
ments that we are NOT much better Of at the
North than our neighbors in that wretchedly mis-
governed portion Of the country.
