Ihey notist with delite which hez
no bounds the encurridgin skeems with
our brethren NV the South, the unkon-
kered and undismayed adherents Nv
the late CoLfedracy. wich wuz crushed
by the unholy minyuns uv the late
feend. A. Linkin, but wich VIII rise
ayin to clame its own, ,hevl put into the
late Fedrel usurpashen for the i'm
movement nv the commershel facilities
nv the South and the develOpin NV its
preatuis.s aFhe SUN Nv two hundred
milyuns for the improvement Nv
Southern railroads, though not ez
we ought to hey, will appear ez be-
piunin. Ell the North Is willin &c
vote that amount to consulate the gal
liant South, If will be willin to vote ez
much more to keep her conciliated,
and when that is properly expended,lt 1T
will be easy enDff to git up another re-
belliop, wich will hevrto be settled the
same way. The snnny South hez done
well by her rebelyun after all. She
hez now control NV the lower House,
and the subsidies and appropriateness
now before Congris will more than pay
her for all the war cost, espesheily
when we take into account the fact
that we repudiated all the debts we
owed the North at the beginnin, and
that England iurnisht all the money
on witch the war wuZ carried on. The
two hundred milyuns wich the Fedril
Government is goin to give Us, eff 3
Republican SENT don't prevent it, is, l
may say, cleer game. ~
The Corners hez bin anXus to be con
siliated ever sense il hez gone over the
Appropriashen bills. Sence them bills
hey bin understood at the Corners, the
citizens hev murmured. They want
to know wat symptom NV bein recon
siled they hev showed? They want to
know why they shood not be brot into
akkord with their oppressors the same
ez the other Southern localities, and
why they sholldent be, pacitied ez il
other pints wich Yuz no more solid foI
the Con.edracy, or wich contributed
no more to the destrukshen NV the
Fedrel Government? Issaker Gavit
and Deekin Pogram both insisted
when they read the list Nv these ap
propriashens, that Onless Congris did
sutbin to attach 'em 10 the Fedre
Government they shoOd rename en-
FILTERED tosthetnd NV stherl days, ,sanc

conkered, but they wuz not destroyed
and the tyrant mite look for 'em torlst
in their mite, at almost any time.
We held peetin over it, and th'
