During joint discussion between Gems
Hurbut and Farms worth, held in McHen
ry county in this state, on Saturday az
ternoon last, Gen. Fsrnswort made tn,
following reference to the "so.calied'
DISORDER IN THE SOUTH.
Gen. Hurlbut has alluded to affairs Ia
tho south, and l judge, from the remarA
made by Judge JVslyn, that he is OF the
opinion that II is necessary 10 keep up the
Republican party intact, on account Of the
| disorce rs in the south. For several cleo
tlOns past we have had the same chapter
of disorders in the south.
SHORTLY BEFORE THE ELECTION
and during the canvass, four years ago
two years ago, and again now, the papers
which are trying to wuip every Repubi-
can who is refractory into the traces, are
earnestly engaged wbetting he sppetitei
! Of the people of the North, and stirring
up their passions with reference 10 tue
people OF the South, endoavoring to incul.
cate the idea that there are disorders there
which tend to instruction and rebellion
again, and that the rebellion is net sufIi
GENTLY put down. Ia the leading Repub-
iican papers of to-day you will see at the
head Of almost every column, in flaming
illustrated capitals, something like this |:
'Ierrible Outrages in the South-Inhu-

1t iss general letter. Its authenticity
Is not denied. have no doubt that such
circulars US this have been issued by the
state central committee of this state also,
to the county press, urging them to make
this matter of disorders in the South u
subject Of discussion in their papers, and
to give them great prominence until after
the election. Why is it that these disord-
ers should receive such particular stten-
tion during II canvass? The truth of tho
matter is simply this
THERE ARE DISORDERS IN THE SOUTH
which grow out of the bad population
there. There ia large class--a mass OF

both white and black, There are ignor-

passions are easily aroused. Being very
base, they commit many crimes. Nio-
