RadicnIissn n Failure Mt the south
No More Reconstruction Needed.

The reply which the President sent
to the Senate to Senator MOrton's re-
solution, with regard to the condition
of affairs In the South rn States, has
made but little impression upon the
Senate. With the exception of a
few extreme Radicals, who are
anxious to perpetuate the power of
the Republican party in the South,
there Is no disposition to NEEDLE with
affairs In that section. Anything
like fresh attempt at reconstruction
would, it il thought, react upon the
administration and make 1t ObnOX-
ious before the people. The majority
Of Congressman are disposed to let
the South alone, believing that it Is
better to do this than to interfere with
affairs which belong exclusively to
the several States. NOtwithstand-
ing, an effort will probably be made
TO make some capital out of the facts
set forth in the Presidents reply to
Morton's resolution. But the ablest
pOliticiars I'm the Republican party
concede that the South will he hope
lessly Democratic by the time the
next Presidential election Is held. 1t
Is to avert this catastrophe that the
extreme Radicals would attempt n
new reconstruction.

THE New York Tribune possesses
streak of good sense which crops
out occasionally. Tn a recent issue 1t
concludes a very elaborate review OF
the business prospects of the country
with a notice OF one of the most po-
tent evils connected with the growth
Of society in large cities. The Tri-
bune says: hHue
ave must consider that our people
are too widely inclined to shun the
quiet ways OF productive labor, and
try to live and thrive I'm the crooked
paths of speculation and needless
traffic. We have d.plorably few
boys learning trades with ten times
too many anxious to get into busi-
ness that Is, to devise some scheme
whereby they may live without work.
or the journeymen mechanics now
ut work IN this city, we judge that
two-tlirds were barn In Europe,
and the disparity Is steadily aug.
menting. One million families are
trying to live by selling liquors, to-
baccO, candy, ETC., in our cities, whn
could he spared therefrom without
the slightest public detriment, and II
these were transferred to the soil, and
set to growing grain, meat, wool, ETC.,
or employed In smelling the metals
and weaving the fabrics for which we
| are stf1f running int0debt to Europe,
our country would increase its wealth
ut least rs fast as now, and there
would be far less complaint of dull
trade and hard times"

Of hope, worthy to be set down along

DEAD LETTER OFFICE.-rhe dead
letter Office Is one Of the most Curl
0usly interesting branches Of the gov
ernment, and the cause of 1t, or the
necessity for such institution, IL a
mystery. 1t Is impossible almost to
conceive OF the carelessness, stupidi-
ty, and ignorance by which more
than $4,000 letters were intrusted to
the post office in q single year, for
which no designation coul,lbe found,
i'm con 1equence Of inaccuracies, i'm
pcrfections and fatal omissions In d.
rection-upward of 5000 having no
address whatever. And the mystery
is the more remarkable when 1t IL
considered that these letters contain
money to the amount of at least
Sl00,0O0 in small sums generally, and
checks, drafts, etc, to the amount of
81, ,O00, COG more. This property was
of course returned, or most oft, upon
information obtained by opening and
examining the letter at the dead let
ter Office.

THE character of community de-
pends much ON the young women. If
they are cultivated, intelligent, and
accomplished, the young men will
feel the requirement. that they should
be upright, and gentlemanly and re-
fined but II their female friends are
frivolous andsilly, the young men
will I've found to be dissipated and
worthless. But remember always
that sister is the best guardian Of II
brothers. integrity. She Is the surest
incubator of faith In female purity.
AS a daughter is the light Of home.
The pride of the father Is oftener CEN
tired In his sons, but affection Is ex.
pended on his daughter. She should
therefore be the sun and centre OF all.
