However much Nerlherner may bc hated,

However much he may be despisei, he
must be the recipient Of all sorlr Of cour-

offensive, his person uneleanly, these little
blcmishes must DO overlooked. Ito Is
raised above eensure, and, whether enis-
sary or missionary, Is "elothed With purity
by virtue OF hlsloyalty and his raliealiHn.'
II Is certainly very snd thing that 'no
ono OF tho ladies who lead society In Texas
will call upon tho families Of radicals, aud
that they shun association with them In
every possible way" II is equally sorrow
fil TO contemplate the fact that Bishop
Simpson was not himself popular with The
Texas people. They do not like the preach
ers OF tho Methodist Church North; they
like, least Of oil, Bishop Simpson. They
know how pcrsstcntly he has sought to
break down the Methodist Church South
how he hns persccuied their ministers,
wrcsted from them their churches, aud de-
nounced thom FOR opinions honestly enter
tainol aud stcadfasny hphcl1, ..rr
or course, as Bishop Simpson takes tho
conduct Of the Texans 50 deeply 10 heart,
ho ought TO entertain tho bcliof that there
is no such thing a5 what ho calls 20 species
of social ostracism" at the North; that in
that happy land there is no discrimination
rs to race or color; no class distinctions;
no political antagonism; but TINT every
body is hail fellow with everybody else; p;
houses are flung open freely to all who
v ish ta enter ihom, and whilst velvet and
point lace are hugeing and kissing calico
and gimp in the drawing room, broadcloth
and homcspun arc hobnobbing in the but
lcr's pantry. 4aloa "4a''
If, however, mono Of this practical equal
ity nor any of those gracious amenities
have been observable among "thc ladies',
or even tho gentlemen, "who lead society
at the North; if, in point of fact, they are
far more exclusive, far more exacting, far
more rigid in maintaining class distinc-
tinctions, and at all times far less disposed
to bo hospitable to strangers than are peo-
pic of the same rank and standing at tho
South, by whas authority does Bishop
Simpson charge as rebellious in the one
section, whit he evidently regards as
manifcstly right and proper in the othery
He is good enough, however, to say "thnt
these prcjudices at the South will undoubt-
cdly gradually pass away, and that cmi-
grants from the North will bercccived into |
society as others are, according to their
character and acts.' In expressing this
opinion, he decides the whole question
against himself, for he admits, in prcvi-
GUS part of his letter, that sociol ostracism
in Texas docs not extend to all Northern |
men; but is restricted wholly to the radi- |
calls So, even by his own Showing it Is
quito clear that emigrants from the North |
nre. really received now into Texan socicty-l
according to their character and acts. aoJ
