THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH.

IHG Huk1A AND 1hE bUu1hs
Tho Louisville C1nritr-}onrnai, III tho
course Of m unusually silly aud frothy article
upon tho relations Of tho North aud sonth,
says: "They {tho Republcnns) Into us [tho
Southern Dcmocrats). Their whole policy Is
to destroy md oxtcrminnto us. AL of 11s
feel thia-know this. No newspaper in tho
North Inns pursued ,,s moro ro1ontlessly than
this pretended organ Of tho commerce of
Cincinnati (tho Conn,ercial), unless it 10
Harpers Weekly mud TnE CHICAGO TRIBUNE"
1t ia not only matter Of surprise but Of
shame that newspaper making such preton-
sions to canlor, aud Responsibility, mud into1-
lgcnco as tho Louisville Courier-1ournaR
should put forth seriously such MI expression
of opinion rs TINT which we havo quoted,
md tie only Inference TINT we Gnu draw
from it is that It desires by such peryersious
and ,nisstatements 10 mako tho South lato
tho North. Wo tako it that the Republicans
Of tho North may differ honestly, and have
tho right to do 50, with the OK Confctlorates
Of tho South OIL measures Of policy and
principle, without being charged with hatred
Of tho Southern people. They may lato tho
! actions Of Southern Democrats and White
Liners, their methods Of carrying elections
| by frattl aud terror, their political porscc,l-
| ton Of Republicans; thoy mny wish to stop
it; they may plead, mud reason, and argue
with the South TINT It's conduct is brutal,
cruel, and unlawful; they may 10 all this,
md yet not hate tho Southern people, If
The pcoplo whom tho Catrier-Journal ropro-
scnt8 desire to be held in esteem by the
| Rorthcrn people, they should behavo towards
their political opponents MS the people Of the
North do. Thoy should trent them fairly,
| antl allow them to vote without intimidation.
Tho Northern Republicans feel sorry for
tloso Southern men. They regret their
actions. They nro indignant at their con-
duct. They sympathizo with tho victims
Of thoir outrageous persecution, but
they havo no hatred for them, no desire,
i'll tho silly, exaggerated langnago Of tho
Courir-journnt, "to destroy and oxter1ni-
nate tllem." Take tho case of Kentucky,
for instance. We defy tue C1urier-Journa!
to point out anything that has over been
written in The CHICAGO TRIBUNE correspond
ing to fhia sentiment Of hatrod, or anything
oven TINT roaccts upon tho character of tho
| tcp1Ao ~ tAAe oIhtc- Why 4'GIA0So pat~
secution, murder, and assassination are not
practiced in TINT State. Elections aro carried
| by pcaceablo methods. kentucky Democrats
do not burn, hang, al,d murder Republicans,
as tho Democrats do in tho cotton States.
Tho Canrier-Journal knows well enough
thore would ho no i'll feeling but for
i'll nctioua, and that pnper would net n moro
consistent part, NJ MI impartial a,1l intolli-
gont newspaper, If it would uso It's great iu-
iluonco to make tho Southern Whito-Liners
loport themselves better, instead of ascrb-
ing such Infamous sentiments to 1nE Un,-
cauo TRIBUNE. Wo hayo only commended
for political liberation in tho South, mud
urged TINT, while tie majority hayo tho right
to rule, they should obtain TINT right fairly.
This il the lesson and tho only lesson Tile
CHICAGO Tn1pu,,E hna sought to inculcatc.
