any fuss; but did take advantage Of the situa-
tion to make up out of anxiety of the enemy
what they had lost by your cowardice at the
critical moment. The upshot of the whole
business is my friend, that the South has
ceased to play second fiddle to the Northern
Democrats; SO that your advice to me be-
longs to an obsolete school of political philo-
sophy."
This is very nearly a literal report OF our
conversation. It serves to show that the
Northern Democrats can't get out of their
old rut and can't understand that. locally
speaking, the Southern people are
MASTERS OF THE SITUATION,
and quite likely to assert their due share of
influence in Federal affairs, from this time
heneeforth. There is no danger of any South
ern State relapsing back into niggerism, car
pet-baggery and returning boards. Whether
the Northern Democrats grasp this mo-
mentous fact or not, the Southern people un
derstand It, Certainly there will be no volun-
tary relapse while, as for coercion, believe
1t would take q greater force to remand the
South back to the condition of 1870, 1871 and
1879 than would be required to march from
the Danube to Constantinople In one direc-
ton and to Paris In another
So long as am correspondent OF the
NEW ORLEANS DEMOCRAT,
| shall write such facts as come to my knowl-
edge, without the fear of the Northern Rad
icals" before my eyes, in perfect belief that
Southern facts are no more to be concealed
than Northern facts, and confident that
Southern readers are able to take care of
themselves, without any care on my part to
discriminate between those facts which may
be published and those which should be sup
pressed. If the Radical organs howl, as my
Democratic friend apprehends,
LET THEM HOWL;
it can only be In ululation over departed
power. And IL 'the success of the Northern
Democracy Is jeopardized thereby" as my
friend feared, why then, the Northern De-
mosracy ought to be in better luck. But one
thing our Northern Democratic friends must
learn, that is that the South declines to be
longer regarded as a dead weight which
the Northern Democracy must ''carry in
eveV campaign" Perhaps our friends will
ascertain this fact about the time the next
Congress is organized. A. c. B.
