JUSTICE TO THE SOUTH.
WASHINGTON, April 80, 1875

w AoHiNulON' nPih ~ iO/o'
Judge VIM. d. Kelley, of Pennsylva-
MIA, returned from six weeks tour IN the
South to-day, and bears most emphatic
testimony against the Southern policy Of
his own party in the last Congress.
When asked tonight what he thought Of
the political condition of the South, he
used these words: "The vote | most re-
gret during my fourteen years service in
Congress, is that which cast last winter
in favor of the Force bill" He further
said that so far as his observation went,
during his extended tour there was no
more necessity for the use of Federal
military force than there is in Pennsyl-
vania or Ohio. He talked with Confed-
crate soldiers, with northern men, ne
groes, carpet-baggers and travellers, and
he was surprised at the good feeling eX-
isting. He said he should hereafter take
little stock in Southern outrages, especial
ly if they are reported as occurring in
the sections he visited. He gave an eX
ample of the feeling in the South by re-
latng what he himself saw in Augusta,
being himself unknown. He happened
to be in that city on the day chosen for
decorating the graves of the Confederate
dead. He remained and observed closely
the proceedings. A long procession
marched through the city with engines,
civic organizations, &C., it being treated
as general holiday Judge Kelley OBJ.
served the significant fact that, while men
and women we're gathered for the purpose
of paying tribute to the memory of the
dead Confederate soldiers. the principal
music on the occasion was furnished by
the band belonging to popular United
States infantry regiment stationed in the
vicinity. There were no taunts, no insults,
no complaints, no appearance of i'll feel
ing anywhere visible. While absent
Judge Kelley spent from two days to d
week in each of the following cities, stop
ping frequently at places of less conse-
quence, Richmond, Charleston, Colum-
bia, Savannah, Jacksonville, Atlanta,
Augusta and Aiken, &c. The most
of his time was spent in Florida. He
says, so far as he saw-and he went with
his eyes and ears open-there was no
feeling of fear or dlstrust on the part Of
the colored people, and he could not for
the life Of him see what use there was for
Force bills. He was very glad to have
made the tip, for it has enabled him to
the condition of the South
better than he has ever understood it
before.
