A CURIOUS illustration of the significance Of
returning the solid South TO power, occurred
in New York city few days ago. A citizen
of Georgia, an elector for that State on the
Greeley ticket in 1872, visited that city for
the purpose of enlightening people there con-
cerning the real attitude of the South. He
called at several of the Republican newspaper
Offices and talked with the political writers.
He said to the correspondent Of the Boston
Advertiser, frankly and without the remotest
idea that he was in!uring his section thereby:
ssWe of the South go into this campaign
heart and soul We believe we have in Gov
Tilden a true representative of ourselves and
of our political principles. We went to Balti-
more in1S72 and endorsed that platform
which Mr.. Greeley..stood on, and we pretended
to be sincere in the act Our action was de-
liberate lie, and we said so among ourselves at
the time. Yet what else could we do? We
must take Greeley or nothing; so we took
him and worked for him, but with heavy
hearts. Now we have a man We can fight
for. He believes as We do, and he stood by
us until he could do so no longer. If he il
elected, we are sure of a voice in his admins
tration, sure of def 'nse in carrying out our
wishes in our own section"
1t is such evidence as this which shows that
the solid South to-day is the same South that
it always was, that it is, as of old, the enemy
of progress, the opponent of every liberal
principle. 1t believes with strange fanati-
cism, that all it has done has been right, and
that all. It's opponents have done has been
wrong. What influence could Tilden have
with Congress composed largely of such
men as these, especially when he is in sympa-
thy with them. There is no bloody shirt in
solid-South talk like this. 1t is the hardest
kind of practical reasoning, and it is the kind
of argument which is making the election of
Aayes and Wheeler and a Republican Con-
gress surer every day.-Pitts. Com.
