THE SOUTH.
WHAT TIE REPUBLICANS LOST.
Now. then, my friends, the campaign told me
something clsc, and think II told you the
famc. we had had long period OF war;
by thnt old question Of starory,-a
war growing out VI Icgaltzcd rnacalttJ md thefs-
war growing out Of building md founding
Government upon d le,-h war growing ont Of
legalizcd hypocrlay We had II. and found ont
after all war settles only thing and that II, who
n the strongct That l. all II settles. Mr. Smith
and 3Ir. Drown may have An alteration. brown
may mako one statement and Smith n,ay deny It;
ana then thor may naht all day, II Jou please 1nl
after Ii ali and Smith Is whipped, that does
mt pfhvo thaE whnt Drown saEl wns true, neither
does 1t show that what Smith said was falRc. War
settles nothing cxccpt who ID The stronger. You
canuot shoot idcas into man with musket: II
yoa could, tho southcrn rcnpte would hare
had mnny more Ideas than they hare
got to-day. (lanshter.1 You eannot ,lrlyo

Thero Is point enough abont bayonot, bnt there
II no logic In bayonet. When the sword Is drawn
from tho seabbanl rcason rcnalnA; anil nothing IA
settled nothing ever was really scttled exctpt tho
question Of strength, by brute force. In thu roar
OF cannon the voice Of reason and tho plcndtuga OF
entscuty cannot bo heard. I say that IL Ia tmo to
