GENERAL P. NJ. B. YOUNG, a young
Georgia gentleman who in the last Congress
was in the habit of informing the House of
Representatives of the temper and designs
Of my people and my country
ing the South-has become so much of a
ron-sectional Gusher as to declare the other
day that 'if the North and South had un-
derstood each other formerly as well as
they do now, there never would have
"been a war" He has enjoyed unusual
facilities of observation in travelling through
the North, and probably meant what he
said, because he undoubtedly believes the
North is able to conquer the South ten
times over; but the Columbus (Ga.) Times
repudiates him in the following delightfully."-
conciliatory and brotherly-love style:
''The South would have been fighting vet,
and we want to know the evidences that brine
these gentlemen TO e. charitable and hopeful
a conclusion. Except to hang our leaders and
butcher our women and children, what could
the enemy have done that they have left un-
done2 What hidden thunder still chained
In the vast storehouse ofheIlish Northern inven-
ton has not yet belch, forth upon us7 What
refinement Of cruelty and cowardice has not
spent It's lorce upon us, and into what depth of
Illumination have we not been plungedl What
odious enactment has been swept from the
statute took, and what material loss has been
or gives promise Of being repaidl Indeed
yes, indeed Our soldiers have been asked N
anoiDt with oil and bow before the altar unon
which our hopes and prospects have been sacri-
feed, to appease Moloch of envy and hate.
Upon Bunker's hill they have been permitted
10 drop penitential tears for an honest attemnt
TO preserve from ruin the principles 1t was
reared to commemorste."

THE "only regret" of JEFF Davis that
he will not be able to address the Rock
County Gll.) Agricultural Society, els the
Gloss Of the opportunity to promote the
"public interest with which the welfare
"of your [thatl community is identified. 4"
The interest referred to is that of the in
habitants of the vast valley of the Missis-
sippi, which JEFF has found to be identical
III Illinois, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Mis-
sissippi. Inyoluntarily the memory of in
telligent people will revert to the time
when he insisted that no identity of interest
could exist between the North and the
South, and when he attempted to contro-
vert the argument that the Joint interests
and CONFORMATION of the upper and lower
valleys of the Mississippi pointed plainly
TO the impossibility of a permanent separa-
lion Of the two sections of the country. 1t
does not require very deep insight into
the character of such scheming traitor as
he has proved himself to be, to discover, in
spite of his non-partisan and non sectional
professions, that he has hopes of awaken
ing false sympathy in the Northwest for
the sectional aspirations of the South. The
suspicion naturally arises from this that he
is adroitly at work TO realize the dream of
a certain class of visionary schemers who
believe that the South and West can be
separated from the East. But if he were
the "patriot Heaven preserve the mark
he claims TO be, he would have occasion
to add to his single regret another to be
found in the fact that his untimely intrusion
upon public attention has done more to
delay perfect restoration than anything else
that could have happened.

The Endless Strife in Cuba.

battle Is reported in Cuba between the
Spanish troops and the patriots, in which six
of the latter were killed, and the event is taken
by the Imperial journals as evidence that the
war is soon to be brought to a close by the
total dissipation of the forces in arms for the
separate nationality of Cuba A battle in
which only six men are killed is not much of
an affair after all. 1t settles nothing. That
loss will make no impression upon the ranks
of the antLSpanish forces, nor will this Skin
mish make any alteration in the campaign of
the patriots. The loss of six men is all the
consequence of what the Spanish papers call
"a great BATTLE" so far as the patriots are con-
cerned. This affair took place in the jurisdic-
ton of Manzanilla, in which there are only
few flying columns of the Cuban forces. In
the Trocha they are still firmly hxed. The
Spaniards seem to have abandoned all earnest
efforts to dislodge them from this important
part of the island, and while they are in this
quarter 1t is idle to talk of subjugation. When
Valmaseda left Havana to head the late cam
paign 1t was for the purpose of driving the
Cubans from the Trocha, but instead of carry
ing out his promises, he was beaten in every
engagement, and is now back In Havana wait
ing for the promised reinforcement of 10000
men with which to prosecute an active winter
campaign. Even II the men are sent from
Spain, as promised, they will not alter the
course of the military stream. Men have been
forced into Cuba every year since 1858, and vet
the hold of Spain upon that island is more inse-
cure now than It was when the revolution was
inaugurated. In 1860 Spain transported to
Cuba II 300 men in 1870, II ,2S3 in 1871,
1889 In 1872, $3.50; in 1873, Il, $50; in 1874,
S,ll2 and thus far in 1875, 6,9l6; making q
total Of "a, 800 soldiers, in addition to 2O,75O
men on the island when the fight began. In
addition to this heavy force of vessels have
been maintained in the ports and waters Of
Cuba, and their crews employed on land when
men were needed. OF this force It is estimated
that nearly 81, 900 men have been killed in bat
tie, died of their wounds, become permanently
disabled, died of disease, or lost their health
or lives in other ways. When these facts are
remembered, it is idle to talk of the patriots of
Cuba being subdued by the killing of half a
dozen men or the landing of ten thousand
fresh Spanish troops upon the island. The
latter will go the way of their predecessors,
and Spain will lose soldiers she badly needs at
home to break the lines of the Carlists in the
north of the kingdom. If Alfonso pursues his
present policy he will lose his crown I'm Spain
as well as his hold upon Cuba. Better give
the Cubans that freedom they have won by
heroic deeds and noble self-sacrifces than by
grasping at the shadow IN the stream, like the
dog In the fable, lose all, both at home and
abroad.

SOME of the Opposition journals have
been advocating the transfer of the control
of the Indian Bureau to the War Depart
ment. 1t will probably surprise them to
learn that President Grant advocated the
same thing long before he was elected the
first time, and that the peace Policy,
which he afterward inaugurated, was the
outgrowth of tie condition of affairs re-
sulting from the refusal of Congress to
make that transfer. In other words, fail
ing to obtain the adoption of system
which be preferred above all others, he
began the experiment of placing the Indi-
ans under the control of the religious asso-
Citations of the country.

REFERRING to the frauds by which the
Alabama Democrats carried the recent cleo
ton in that State, and the certainty that in
their coming constitutional convention
they will attempt to put the colored man
clown and keep him down, and likewise
"those white men who sympathIze with
"the colored race" the Cincinnati Gazette
says: -.... -..-... .......
"Thus, step by step, the Democrats of the
Southern States repudiate the conditions upon
which they were permitted to return to the
Union. And the end Is not yet. Those States
have now large majority of the Democratic
Representatives in the approaching Congress.
These Representatives will control the Demo-
cratic party, as they always have done, and
thus the next House will be virtually con-
trolled by men who served in the rebel army,
and who will generally approve the policy Of
the Alabama Democracy. The duty of the
people of the Northern States in this emergency
is very plain, and that is to keep the Demo-
cratic party out of power. It is not to be
trusted. Its word, its pledges, its solemn COM
pacts, in matters that grow out of the slave
holders rebellion, are not worth the paper on
which they are written or printed. Put that
party In power In the nation, and it would
walk rough-shod over every compact and
every obligation and every constitutional
amendment, as the Democrats of Alabama
trampled under foot the rights and privileges
Of almost half the people of the State. The
people who put down the rebellion and saved
the life of the nation have gone far enough In
the way of coaxing, trusting and hoping-so
far that they have lost the power almost that
their victory in the field secured to them. 1t
is now time to prove and consider and resolve
that the treacherous and reasonable Demo-
cratic party is not to be trusted"
This is the right kind of doctrine, and
we are rejoiced that the Gazette has found
time in the midst of the currency cam
paign" now progressing in Ohio to make
this forcible explanation of the Southern
situation. The facts alleged in it cannot
be controverted, and they are of more
serious importance to the future welfare of
the Government than questions of rag
money or specie resumption. In truth,
they foreshadow the possibility that the
unfortunate circumstances which brought
about the necessity to issue greenbacks
may be forced upon us again. They show
that the South has not and will not accept
the result of its appeal to arms. Let the
Gazette continue its exposition of the trea-
sonable designs of the Southern Democ-
racy, and ''the people who put down the
rebellion" will soon put an end to the
''coaxing, trusting and hoping policy of
the trucking Northern Gushers.

VICE PRESIDENT WILSON has been at il
again. He has told the ex.Union soldiers
at Brattleboro', Vt, how manfully he
fought the battles of his country as chair
man of the Senate Committee on Military
Affairs, and has once more asked them to
shake hands with their former enemies.
But he did not tell them that he willfully
closes his eyes to the fact that the Southern
Democracy is engaged In reViving the love
Of their followers for the fallacious prin.
ciple of secession; nor did he say anything
about having reported bill to reduce the
pay of mounted officers in the field during
the same session that he voted to increase
his own pay as Senator Aside from
these suggestions, which instantly arise
from casual reading of the telegraphic re-

PARsoN BRowNLOw has made up his
mind from a standpoint of close and intelli-
gent observation that the State Rights or
secession issue is still the basis of Demo-
cratic faith. 1--WE may as well prepare,
he says, "to meet this question, as leading
Democrats are determined to force it on
"the country" and discussing in recent
number of the Knoxville Chronicle Mr..
Beck's detestation of the word nation, he
adds:
"If the principles Of Mr.. Beck are to pre-.
is ono nation" then the four years of terrible
war were all to no purpose. Any State may
withdraw from the Union at will, and our
Government is really not worth preserving"

port of his address last Wednesday, it will
be generally conceded that it betrays a
rambling and disconnectedtrain of thought
which shows his inability to concentrate
his mind upon any we'll defined policy Of
action. He hits here and there upon his
theory of reconciliation, but flies away
from 1t to touch upon the devotionof the
ex-soldiers,of the North to the principles
for which they periled their lives, or to the
respect the Northern people entertain for
the dead defenders of the Union. Sad as
the conclusion is, it must be apparent to
any intelligent man that Mr.. Wilson has
either become so insincere as regards his
public professions. that he is compelled to
struggle to keep up an appearance Of con-
sistency, OF that his unfortunate physical
Affections have produced more serious
effects than the public has hitherto believed.

"THE Third Term scare" says the
Hartford CourGRt, closes its fierce when it
lis presented as q reason why reputation
'may be tolerated" In other words, the
Courdnt would prefer General Grant to a
Democratic infationist as President Now
let it apply the same course of reason which
led 1t to this conclusion to the situasion in
the South where the Third Term "scare"
is considered by stesdfast Republicans as
the only safety against the threatened repu-
diation and obliterstih of the equal rights
of citizens. 1t will then discover the
purity of the motives of those who, during
the last session of Congress, were charged
with scheming for President Grants re-
nomination, when, in fact, they were
merely and conscientiously laboring to
secure the continuance of his policy of
protection to all of the Southern people.
