Well founded opinions always spread
The estimation in which carpet-bag~
gers and scallawags have been held in
the South ever since that class of in
dividuals first made their appearance
there, is now, we see, beginning to be
approved in other sections of the coun
try. The Cincinnati Enquirer says
"The meanest men in the Republican
National Convention are the white men
from the South. AS a general thing
they are for sale, while the negroes
from that section are filled with the
grandeur Of profound convictions. 1t is
said to be quite difficult to purchase a
colored delegate, but when one of Sena-
tor Jones silver brick>bats strikes a
man from the South he surrenders and
squeaks for Conkling."

fall OF dead mems bones and of all un-

ing style:
'S.lhere are newspapers that have not

have obtained power again in one

ooldened to strike at every northern
sentiment and to advise vengeance for
any imaginary insult to the greater
rebels who failed to. destroy the
Union.

'not conquered but .overpowered' sheet,
published at Woodstock, Va, has the
following exquisite s!ntiment:

not deserve public sympathy. In order
to give himself prominence he attempt
ed 10 arouse the most bitter feelings of

North against the South and to produce
a degree OF sectional animosity which

would not have penned those lines. The
Republican party, we fear has not had
'sthe rebel washed out of it yet. You
had better abandon it. Change your
tactics, Stop defending thieves and
plunderers and let the "rebels" that
tried to teach you honesty alone. If
Grantism, Belknapism, Blaineism, or
any of the other off shoots of Radical
ism are your only evidence of real
loyalty, you had better look out, 1t is
