We have urged says the Baltimore
Gazette, q full, patient and prompt
acquiescence in The legitimate results
Of the war-in the abolition Of slavery
and all its adiuncts and surroundings.
We have encouraged the emigration
Of honest and decent men IRON the
North to the South, and have insistsd
always that the latter should and
would, if permitted, chccrfully coop.
crate in the work Of reconstructing
tho Union and maintaining the Con.
sti.ution. But if contempt for tho
unprincipled men who direct the
course Of the Radical faction; if detes.
tation of the dospicable means by
which they have secured the asccn-
dency Of a Radical minority in the
Southern States if resentment at the
daily and hourly violation of the
fundamental law of this land, and the
overthrow Of the very cornerstone of
civil freedom on this continent; If
hatred Of arbitrary rule and military
despotism; if loathing Of o faction
which seeks TO porpetuate its power
by making negroes and unprinciplcd
Adventures the law makers and gov
ernors Of the Southern people; ifthese
feelings come under the category Of
prcjudices and animostics, then do
We entertain these last most cordially
We shall encourage them now and
hereafter to the best of our ability :
we shall cndavor TO strengthen their
growth in the hearts of the Southern
people, and We do most cordially pray
that in the generations yet to come
the convictions and feelings which
animate us today may fire every
Southern breast with ten fold the in.
tensily with which we cherish them.
The love ofhonesty, the love Of right,
the love Of law and the love Of country.
these are what tho Radical faction
affects to class with prcjndiccs and
animositics.

ONE BRoTHER SUCCESSFUL. I h G
Legislature Of Mississippi has covered
itself all over with glory, in the esti-
nation Of the "loil Millions In
addition to electing Gen. Ames and
Gen. Alcorn, Senators, it has also
elected Rev. II. r. Reyels, colored
Methodist divine for the short term,
expiring March, 1871. Rev. Rcvels,
was born and educated in Ohio. His
father is white and his mother black.
The reader may estimate his color,
and where his excessive smartness
comes from. The northern Methodists
sent him TO Natchez TO convert bis
brethern, but he soon took to the
stump and helped Gen Amcs and his
bayonets to carry the election, hence
his reward. Senator Sumner who
has so long preached the equality Of
the races will no doubt invite brother
Rcvels to seat by his side so that nc
can inhale the rich aromatic scent
oozing out of the hide Of this
hcrmaphrodito and degenerate crca-
ture, who bears the curse Of the
Creator as visible in bis forehead as
Cain.
