mated and apparently elected by the
Republican party but no man knows
better ihnn Gcn. Grant that this was
a mere matter of policy,a dcrnier
resort to secure q continuance Of that
power which they had obtained and
abused through popular prejudice
and Misrepresentation. All has been
doubt and uneasincss to them since
his election, for no has given no
encouragement that extreme meas
nres will be adopted, and upon this
fact'w think we may justly ground
hopes for the future.
President johnson has, TO the ex-
tent Of his power, endeavored 10
ameliorate the condition Of the late
Confederate States, but opposed rs
he was by a sectional aud ianat-
ical Congress, he was unable to ac-
complish his objects. Whatever the
change in "rulcrs' may bring, We
have at least to thank him for good
intentions, and pray that nothing
worse may visit us than what we ex'
pcrienced during bis administration

Gen. Grant and Universal Suffrage,

Washington dispatches Of Mon
day contain the following:
Senator Stewart said he came to
know how General Grant stood on
the Constitutional amendment, Civ
ing universal suffrage North and
South.
General Grant replied he UNDER
stood the amendment, and hoped the
States would ratify 1t. He believed
that the Republican party were
bound to see this conclusion realized.
This statement he desired all the
gentlemen present to understand was
not for their private information
alone, but for the whole country to
hear. Senator Wilson, on hearing
this announcement, put his hat on
and went of in great humor, saying
at last he was satisfied with General
Grant.

food Deal Of Truth.


Returning to Selma some days
since on the s. X. and ID. railroad, |
heard a respectable and intelligent
old gentleman, understood to be Mr..
Thomas, Of Boston, late purchaser of
extensive coal lands in Jefferson
county, say ooh, you don't respect
labor 10 the South, that Is the reason
emigration does not take place from
the North" So It is often said.
Nothing could be more untrue in the
sense intended. The truth simply is,
that there Is nm aristocracy Of wealth
everywhere, North as well as South,
that ignores the common laborcr and
mechanic. Socially, this may be
found in all its plcntitudc, right un-
der the hose Of the very respectable
old gentleman TO whom we allude,
and whom We arc glad to sec in our
Sunny South. In no part of the
South was this feeling ever stronger
or nearly so strong as in Boston. Its
existence in former years, its existence
still, We do not DENY. But the feel
ing was ouly among the wealthy pop
ulation, almost confined to the large
planter class. Among the masses Of
the population, the great ycomanry
of the upper country, "a stubborn
race, a~attcriug or fearing none, who
would shake hands with a king on
his throne aud think il kind to his
majesty" the feeling never had any
existence.
If laborcrs and mechanics, North
or South, have a mind to fear and
cringc to the wealthy and aristocratic

TExAs.-Thc Houston Telegraph
draws a glowing picture Of the con-
dition of Texas. The State is set
down for a half million bales Of cot
ton next year. This, at the rate Of
fifteen cents n pound, would net
s30,000,000. The State is very well
of now. Neither man nor beast
lacks for food Of. every healthful va
riety. The great crop Of mast has
fattened the numerous herds Of swine,
and pork is stored in plenty. The
cattle and hide trade Of tho State
has brought abundance Of money
into II. The sale of hides is, how
ever, an illegitimate method Of COM
mcrce. IL is but another way Of
despoiling the State Of those immense
locks which, IL transported, would
not only result in greater wealth, but
in cheapening the price Of beef in
Northern markets. We know moi
how much the cry of "Texas fover''
has increased the killing Of cattle in
that State for the sake of the hide,
alone, but it is fair to presume that
In so Far as il was started TO prevent
the competition Of Texas drovers and
Texas beeA II has had It's results.
