which men of intelligence and character and
wealth at the South despise and detest, and
which has not even that lowest of all govern
mental claims to respect-brute force at COM
mand-instead of putting an end to turbu-
lence, we SOW the seeds of it.
We do not blame the authors of the Recon-
struction policy for the results of their policy.
1t was just and expedient that the prime
movers in the Rebellion should be excluded
from all share in the management of affairs
while the basis of society at the South, and
the relations of the revolted States to the
Union, were undergoing revision But to
persist in keeping up this abnormal state of
things and, above all, to thrust back into it
any State which has even partially made its
way out of it, would be the height of folly
and wick edness. Congress may be fairly de-
fed to make society at the South either sober,
orderly, Industrious, or law-abiding. 1t may
pass what acts it pleases, and things will re-
main as they are till the individuals of which
Southern society is composed are improved;
and the work of improving them does not fall
either to General Terry or the Reconstruc-
ton Committees. Providence has reserved
that for laws whose operation began with the
creation of man, and will only cease with his
extinction.
