3 DUB TREATMENT or TIE SOUTH.
;. We, u nation, aro doubtless growing mo
liberal in our T1eTs OF customs and opinion
. held by other peoples We acknowledge IN il
. telligent individual as in equal even though
? | worships Buadha. In fact, We ere beginning
pride ourselves upon these broad. liberal viow;
= Yet, in the treatment the South il receiving {
, the hands Of tho Government, We resemble thoa
good members Of aociety WHO furnish mission
aries for food, and forget thosanecdier indiridr
ais who live within . stones throw. We AZ
ready to forgive tho canniba1 who ate up on
1niesionary. and will oven sond him fresh sup
ply; but We can't forgive tho msn who stole
loaf Of bread to feed starving family.
SENTIMENT OF TIE SOUTHERN PEOPLE.
We cannot forgive the South, although she i
unqucstionably penitent, and tho great majorit.
] OF her citizens are ready and anxious to sue
cept the situation u; willing to accept, withou
complaint; the necessary results of an unsnc
cessful rebellion willing to remain good c,ti
zens OF the United States; willing to support
the Federal Government The people Of the
South, as people, have no thought Of making
another Har-issue With tho North. What they
do feel that they have tho righ. to ask is, that,
taking what property they have LETT
they may be allowed to preserve and
use'it to tho best advantage, The question with
the South to-day, is financial. The people de-
siro to "buy. and sol, and get gain" They arc
sick Of politics. They have said to me, "We
wish all tho negrors could 60 to CongrcHs, and
We would vote to. put them there II that
would rid Us Of tho theft and plundering OF the
carpot-baggers." You may ask, Why don't they
let politics alone, then? Because the life is
taken ont Of business by the ruinous rate of tax
alton imposed by body Of men who have
neither reputation nor dollar Of money at
stake, except that which las been stolen by
them from the treasury Of the people; and the
| people havo taken hold OF politics to savs the
remnants OF their property from going into the
hanls of the political hucaster.
VOLUME MIGHT DE WRITTEN
upon this subject, and tho Liberal papers OF the
! North must not let the subject drop until the
people understand and recognize the position Of
| tho South. 1t was a pleasure to me, as q friend
! Of TIE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, to hear tho many
words of praise given to it for the good work it
is doing in this cause. The writer is in no way
political man my trip Waa entirely for pleasure;
and it is only because politics prominently
brought before mo, and it's results so plainly
seen, that I venture upon that subject. Let me-
now give you some idea OF my experiences ut the
Crescent City.

There is very little to be said OF New Orleans de-
pots, and that little is not in tue way of praise.

persons, quite as fast ns our hacks. +
