EXANDRIA, Y a.
THURSDAY, JUNE 26, 1875.

SOUTHERN FEELING-A correspondent OF
the New York Times, IA very earnest Radical
journal, who has been travelling extensively
through the Southern States, speaking Of the
comparative absence among the people of poitl-
cal discussions noted this more particular
" as indicative of pre- occupation with ordinary
TOPICS and as pointing to conclusions concern
ing the direction of the energy of the South
toward legitimate fields of action in recovering
from her PROSTATE condition. The tone aud
spirit Of the people whom he encountered, he
says, were Indicative of anything rather than
of discomfort. ''Thcir manner towards Northern
men was frank, open and cordial. . This is the
testimony of Northern man, after full oppor-
tunities for observation, as to the real feeling
of the masses in this section Of the y. 5. They
have strong, decided, political opinions, as to
the current political topics of the day, but their
sentiments are honest and sincere, and deserve
