acres of ground, being much larger than
that used at the London exhibition OF 1882
That building covered an area of only

workmen were employed for six weeks.
and about 500, 900 in gold were paid out
for labor directly to the people engaged
in erecting the structures. In addition to
this, some idea of the vast quantity of ma
terial used will be gained when we
state that 1922 tons of cast iron, and
twelve and three-iourths acres of glass
were placed in the structure. The build
ing at Paris, for the exhibition of 1857
covered thirty-nine acres. Philadelphia

RECONCILI1TION.

There is no reason to believe Horace
Greeley is more in favor of perfect recon-
citation between the North and South
than President Grant. lfHorace Greeley
signed the bail bond of JEFF Davis as an
act of goodwill to the South, General
Grant performed greater and more sig
nifcant act of kindness when he permitted
the conqured rebels to return to their
homes at the close of the war, and al
lowed them all the privileges and fayors
which he could towards making their con-
dtiou comfortable. If Greeley favored
amnesty so did the President in his mes
sages to Congress. We know no instance
where President Grant has shown other
than kindly, generous feeling toward
the South. No vindictiye, harsh words
have been uttered by him on account of
section during his administration. No
troops have been kept there to oyerawe
or Cypress the citizens. Only the usual
force in time Of peace has been kept. In
Virginia there is not soldier outside of
Fort Monroe, and SO in the other States.
In regard to the rights of citizens the
only distinction which exists is that n
very few of the rebel leaders cannot hold
office. For five years there has been no
restriction on suffrage which did not ap-
ply to all, white and black, alike. No
man has been prevented from voting on
account of his participation in the rebel
lion. Some cutlery has been made about
carpet-baggers, but that is the result Of
enlargiug the suffrage so as to include the
blacks, for which Mr.. Greeley is As much
responsible as President Grant. The evils
of carpetbagging are not due to the adj
ministration but to the State governments
and the people who elccv them. It
would be simple mockery to give the South
the right of suffrage and then say the ma
jority should not rule. The majority elects
the State officers in South Carolina or
Louisiana as in Maine, and the general
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1872-10-18
government Is no more responsible for
the acts of South Carolina officials than

government Is no more responsible for
the acts of South Carolina officials than
for those of the Governor and Legislature
of Maine or New Hampshire. 1t is the
State officers of whom the complaints
about plundering the people are made
and not of any government officers under
the control of the President.
The acts of the general government
with which the democrats North and South
have found most fault, are the ku-kluX
act and the bayonet election law, as they
term it. These are the measures which
they point to as oppressive to the South,
and because they clothe the President
with power to enforce them he is denoun-
ced as a tyrant and uniriendly to the South.
Now these acts are the work of Congress,
of Mr.. Greeley, the Tribune, and the pub
lie sentiment of the country which demand
ed them. No man urged them more
vigorously or approximately than Mr.
Greeley, and none could have applied
them with more mildness, or discretion,
or consideration for the feelings of Il con-
quered people than President Grant
The supporters OF Grant and Wilson are
not opposed to reconciliation with the
South. They are in favor of union, har-
mony, fraternal feeling between the two
sections. 1t is false to represent them as ac-
t,1 INV bafroH tpuynrls thpir
southern brethren. Let the South stand
squarely on the platform of justice TO all,
and give evidence that love of our whole
country predominates in their minds over
the narrow ideas which led them into the
rebellion, and they will be fellowshipped,
trusted and supported to a generous ex:
tent by the North. President Grant is the
friend OF the South equally with the
North. We predict that his coming ad-
minstration will be one marked with the
spirit of the desire for reconciliation, and
that Mr.. Greeley in the capacity of fault
finder which he will assume will charge
him with too much leniency and fayorit-
ism rather than with oppression. We be-
leve that the bloody chasm will be
bridged more effectually by four years of
justice and kindness than by the bur-
lesque which has accompanied Mr.. Gree
ley S candidacy. The hand of the repub-
lican party will be extended in kindness
to the South always, and we trust that
when the campaign Of 1876 opens there
will be no need Of discussing Ku-klux
outrages or Ku-klux laws, and that the
ashes of the rebellion will not be- dis
turbed
