AN APPEAL.

The statesman from Essex county,
Massachusetts, General Butler. has
opened his electoral campaign with one
Of his characteristic speeches, in whi'h
he shows the most striking and remarka-
BILE point Of his character, his desire to
differ from every one else. The prlnoi-
pal points on which he dwelt were wha'
bs called Southern outrages and finance.
In dealing with the former. the speaker
shows the same obliquity OF mental VS.
ion that is a marked feature OF the speak
er's personnel. 1t is singular but moi
less true fact, that few people appear
able to approach or discuss the eondi-
ton of the South without rousing some
of the worst passions that the human
breast is capable Of harboring. But lei
us deal with this question in spirit oil
fairness. GOODNESS and candor. Butter
seeks to rouse the passions Of his hear
ers by reciting this excess or that ont
rage, forgetting that he had no right to
saddle millions with the opprobrium arts
inc from the misdoings of few. Inc
fact is, il the questions relating to am
involving the pacihcation OF the sou'l
and placing that section on the road
nrosperity are discussed and debate
from a partizan point of view se'tl'
ment will be far distant. We, howeve
would ask all patriotic citizens "nkio'
for the we'll being of the country; IN
whole country, and not section OF II
to lay aside the glamor Of party lenses
and regard those matters in the clear
calm light of reason. The fact
as they appear at present may be brief
stated. Here is q large and importar
section Of the country in distress,
misery, in trouble and confusion, vii
present wretchedness and future despai
Will you not help them? Will you n
do something to alleviate their misfo
tunes? They are suffering, they are
need, they are PROSTATE in Athletic
Extend. we implore you, the hand
peace, of mercy, and fraternal affectio
and raise them from the abyss OF wretc
edness, in the darksome depths of viii
they are SO deeply involved. SURE
this is duty, as well required by
dictates of christianity as the clai
OF a common citizenship and broth
hood. There is nothing to be gain
by strife, by desire for We
geance, by the qualification of Wind
tive malice, but there is, on I
other hand the greatest crown a
glory that the human race can know, a
which follows the exercise Of char
and mercy. Those men are 20
brothers. Extend to them the hand
fraternal affection and all will yet
we'll.
