Twenty-Five years have elapsed since
Mr.. Lincoln's election ,flve-sixths, yea,

both died with tho words upon their

Alone of tho authors OF the rebellion,
Jefferson Davis survives. Boys born

Of So, There is new South and q
now North. A new generation full OF
new life is at work. A very large pro-
portion Of the people Of the South have
never seen a slave and have lived uu-
der no other regime but that
of universal suffrage. Is it
not time Tor the Shormans
and the Forskers to accept the results
of the war and no longer continue IN
battle? Eight million OF bales OF cot
ton, the probable crop of this year, is
in sight. There are no idlers in the
South. Why croak in tho North?

are now side by sido at york.
The new South is developing now in
dustries, weaving cotton clotn, digging
coal and iron, forging stoel. God aod
nature, religion and the human heart,
are tho forces against which Sherman
and Foraker contend and Foster plots"
To the policy Of inalienation the
speaker ssid:
"The Democratic party opposed dis.

tinted love. Let us then
Danish these unmanly fears Of
Southern wrong-doing," said the
speaker, "and cease TO eXaggerate

Jackson, Jonas, Lamar and

the South, these are to our senator as
the unregenerate children of the politi-

The speaker said he asked for re-
election as an approval of the present
administration.
"Now, L ask for MORE" said he:
"I solicit approval, not forbearanoo.
