STILL sLANDEEIsG THE SOUTH.

It seems the south is never to have
repose-freedom from SANDER and mis-
representation. Another rebellion is the
acknowledgement which the
Radicals have constantly held up to the
northern people and by which they re-
tanned power. This hobgoblin has
ceased 10 brighten the public. It has
been used to exhaustion, and no longer
strikes terror to the most ignorant or
credulous. But the Radicals are 10th to
give up the hobby by which they have
secured power. Like the old soldier
who shoulders bis cruteh and fights his
battle over again, they have seized their
muskets and indicate a determination
to fight the rebellion over. As evidence
% this, read the following extracts. Toe
Washington Republican, Grant'sspecia1
organ, says:
The indications show that the bright
est page Of American history, the
record which includes the emaneipa-
lion OF race, and the Acknowledgement
81 millions OF human beings, is in
danger Of being blOtted out, or that the
nation viii be disgraced by return to
the cruel DAYS when the slave Oligar-
chies and the fraudulent aristOcracy Of
the south ruled the country. These will
be the issues IN the Esxt campaign, and
10 viii only be necessary then that the
party shall have leaders capable Of in
spring the confidence of the people and
crystslizing the influences which await
leadership now, to give US the success
we deserve.
a Cincinnati organ also has this to
say about the temper with which the
Democrats viii go intopOwer:
They fancy they see in the late cleo
lions common voice Of HDOWn with
the Negro" and upon this they will.
sooner or later, undertake TO act. A re-
construction Of the southern States upon
an electoral qualification Of some kind
electoral OF Otherwise-for the purpose
Of reducing the colored vote, is The bil
for the future. And upon that issue the
Republican party viii come together
stronger, more sOlidly than ever. with
ranks thoroughly reformed, and policy
wisely strengthened.
In q dispatch describing demonstra-
ton at Montgomery, Alabama, on the
eleventh instant, in honor Of the recent
victories, the following statement is
made:
Some negroes are talking about the
selection Of new masters, under the i'm
preston that they viii be sold again into
slavery. The whites in vain endeavor 10
reassuTe them.
The repetition of such WORKOUT stuff
viii hsve,nO effect in future elections.
The school Of adversely is the school OF
wisdom. Persecution, wrongs and out
RACES, have been the schools in which
the people Of the south have learned
prudence and wisdom. Peace, fraterni-
ty and good viii is the anthem Of the
southern people. They had no especial
love for the government that oppressed
them, and which protected thieves in
robbiDg them. But now that their de-
liversnce is at hand, they feel much Of
the old gushing Fourth-of-July patriot
ism, and awillingness to "ralIy around
the Tag" once more. The Democrats
will profit by the experience Of Radical
lam. and avoid the blunders and follies
nv which they lost public confidence.
The Democraticlpress and statesmen are
looking shead,with grave sense Of re
