tion to repudiate honest debts. If this
is true of Missouri, it is ten-fold more
palpable of the Cotton States.
1t is this intense spirit of sectionalism,
dominating the Southern people, hand
ed down from one generation to an
other. and kept alive by hatred of the
blacks and prejudice against all that is
Northern, which is the chief hindrance
to the restoration of the political peace
and material prosperity of the South.
Time alone can unfold the remedy, so
long as the Southern people refuse to
apply it. Meanwhile the constant and
turbulent manifestation of this vicious
sectionalism is bar to perfect CONNER
cial and political harmony between the
two sections. Chicago Tribune.
