Mr. Col lax at Ilomo-lhe South and Its
Votn the 1 imei.
Mr. Speaker Collax has mounted the stump In
Indiana, and Is preaching the doctrine of re
pentance aud pood works as essentinl to the
restoratiou 01 ;he Southern State to their
former places in the Union. lie refuses to
beliete that the Southern pople havo repented
of the heresy ot socfssioti and the sins into
hicb it let! them: ami ileuscbts in oulntiti
them as jet lMiels, wirh hands aud skith ye
wet itith' loyal blood. He sees In the So'ith
little beidc'a Kointof hate; trcnRon 11, in ni
(mieni-nt. i am pant everywhere; an.l he enjoins
upon his hearers tlie necessity of kcepiuir It out
of the Union until its people attain to bli
standard oi political nahteousness.
It ut although Air. Col i ax inilulges in very
nweeplnff accusations against thu Houtti and
what he calN its ' uirei eutani disloyalty," he is
not vert t-xpl clt in his statfincut ot the grounds
upon which his charges rest. As wo nitd hU
speech at Mouth Bern), all bli railing may be re
d need to two points. One Is, that the Fourth ot
July was not celebrated as euthu-iastirullv as it
oueht to have bcii by the 8 iiittiern people; Ox"
other, that not tths'in linsr the de e.it ot taeir
armies avd tne overthrow ol their cause, tliev
wri-lst in maiiitaii iutr that tb.y have riiruts
which the tieueral Ciovormncir, is bouu I to re
spect. Tln-se are in Mr. t'oliax's nund h- Inou
otlriises, to b" repented ol m saekelotn and
ashes before rcpa niuj? a'linisj.iou iuto the Con-pri'-sioual
temple.
The Koutn nni't acknowledge that, bavins;
been delea'en m ur, it has noriului wuicu
the conqueror slioufi be required to recopjize,
aud Itiat it is therelorb dependent tor whatever
political alntun it may herraMcr eniov upon the
penerosity 01 lonerets. And liat ins? lost every
thing ol 'vhiih the I'nion is supposed to be
the 8j tiibol, biiviim lorieited all title to ihelter
uuder the ('uiistiiuiiiii, bavin? been reiiticd
by the lorce o arms to a onilit on ol vassal re,
the like 01 which uo civilized coniiicror dreams
of imposing, the o;itli is expee ed to bcra'e
fully ecstatic when Independence Day reminds
it ol wliat. it bus lost. In other words, Mr.
Collax w mid have our Southern iirelhre.i
prove their uiititupss lor the jirerogativi-s ol
freemen by coii'Ufiiir themselves sensor slave;,
and hypoe.rit.caliy bl-ssing the autaors ol their
altered lot.
It does not seem to Lave occurred to Mr.
Collax that the proper time lor the Southern
States to lejoice as members ol the Union
established i our la'hcrs, wi'l be when tuey
are luliy Restored to the prmLces tvliich inoiii
bership impi e. It Ihey lnni tlmr bavuit! b"eu
brcupht ba'k into the Union they have rights
to be rifiurucu, i Jie ate pruilly tola that m
Btead of talk iif ol riirlits they iu uld crinirj
and supplicate icr inerc.N. II ihey suggest I hat
until thev are restored t-i the io"itiou which
throuuiout i he war they u ere mvned to re
occupy, thev have no csuse f"r sniv nz ho
saunas to the I'm n whose tljurs are closed
aauin-t them, they are scolded as "unrepeu ant
Rebels." How mat tney satisfy pen lomi liKc
Mr. Col'ax, txcepi by ieor;ine to tlm hari-kari ?
Even then they would not pleae him, for tne
grave heeds not he fourth of July.
Nor has Mr. Coluix cou'idereil the desirable
ness ot alloAiiiii the South to ip-enter the Union
with a lull uieos lire of sell-respect. IK-'tesi its
rebellion u' e may, at lea-t it ptoved itself a
toe worthy of our Wei, aud there is neither
expediency, nor dignity, nor Christian principle
in rhe prooonl to treat it w it h a liarshnest un
known to modem warlare. We inayins stthat
the Southern people shall come back in eood
faith 10 uphold thu Union vhieh has ti.ser ed ns
authority over them; but to ask them to come,
exoept as equals under the Consti.uttou, would
be to nisuU and decrrade them.
So lar as our onp irtunities of studyinu South
ru sentimeni ex end, we discover nothinar to
"warrant the opinion- expressed by Mr. fol:ax
in his vind'c i'i jii ol Congress. It ispi-sible,
no doubt, heie and there to tlud in the Soutn a
newspaper or a n iy politic an full ot the non
sensical disloyal' v which forms the staples of
Vallandteham's harangues in Ohio. Biit view
ing the Southern pres as a whole, and tu.' p jblm
men ol the S juth as a class, we trace a spirit
which has no ailiuny to ihat ot which Mr. Collax
speaks. There is a decree ol moderaiio-i which
should silence slander, aud a declared read'"'ess
to abide by the situation aud its results, wuich.
should sai sf . every Na ioual Umou man. There
are complaints abnit the course ol t'oonre-s;
there are allecstious atfecttng the good taith of
the (iencrul 'lovernineui in its treat uent ot the
South; there are allusions to the principles of
the Constitution a..d ihe r,cht it confers upon
the individual States; hut these are presented
tempera'ch, and ma manncto which none cau
lairly obiect.
Letter evidence uoon this point cannot be
had than tht which has been iurnUbcd in
connection wi'h the choice of delegates to ttie
Philadelphia Convention. Ihe list up to this
time received iroin tie South is not without
flaw or ulem sh. Heujbra"es some names tnat
will not ad 1 weight to the proceedings, liut
as a whole it is eminently creditable to the
good seme and moderation of the. Southern
people. The delegates are tor the most oart
men of character aud standing in their respec
tive localities, and tjere are reasons for believ
ing that they will enter the Convention im
pressed nh the conviction that they will best
serve the South by act'intr Discreetly aud la a
spirit of lorbarancc aud conciliation. Every
where a determination appears to have been
felt to leave demagogues at home, aud to seu J
prudent conservative deleeates. Inso'nccises
delegates have declined the appointment on
the groui.d that their presence micut lead to
misapptehensiou, (iovernor liiown, of (Jeorgia.
being ol the numbpr. We look in vain lor the
"unrepeutuut diloalt" which Mr. Collax
dwells upon by way ol ust hcation.
The London Kctoim Demonstration.
From the Tribune.
When the Moravian left with the mails of the
25th ult., the all-absorbing topic of public dis
cussion in Englan I was the Helot ni demonstra
tion which took place In London on the 23d of
the mor.tii, and the deplorable occurrences con
nected therewith, resulting from the nil war
ran' able interference of the Government with
the proposed meeting in Hyde Park. If proof
was wanting that a Tory Government is an
anachronism in English politics at the present
period, it vonld be bupjdied by the events in
question. The very first act ot the Derby Minis
trj on succeeding u oilico is to make au a'tac
on popular llahis is to provoke a collision be
tween the crown and the people. It is by no
means dithcult to understand the motives which
Erompied that aliack. During the late de
nt es in th? House ot Commons on the Re
form question, the Tories insisted that thu
people ol England were perfectly In
different abcut 1 an extension of the
suffrage, and thai theanits'ionoi that matter was
purely the woik ol aaltatoia and demagogues,
got up to subserve unworthy party pjrooses.
The people, it wa- contended, are well coutout
ith things aj they are. EDiilaud, it was argued,
enjoys an unpieeedeuted measure ot material
prospenty. Bread is abundant ; tea and sugar
aie cheap; there is plenty of employment icr
the laboring classes, and no en I ot i ho va lor
the diveteion ot the ma-sea. Wh it more then,
it was a-ked, can the people want? In compa
rison with substantial corn'ons, political rieuts
are a chimera, and tne people, convinced of this,
care nothing about Parliamentary lio'orin.
Holding such views, it n.ust nave greatly sur
prised and chagrined the new Adinmist' ation
to discover, upon their displacement ot thu
Liberal Aiw'strv, that the people reullv do care
about the l.anrt-i e, and. are in rood earned in
their detei ruination tJ have all therlgnuth.it
are secured l them by the constitutl in under
wlncb they live, liut it w .uld never am vpr lor
the Tor ea' to be found in 41-10x0111 error. Tne

Toiy princ'ples atid prcdiloeiioaf. has proved d

e8trday morumir Iroin the l-.nglish iouronh
show that, in tne con lift prove ked by Lord
Derby's liovernuient, the popular caase has
gained a signal triumph. The temper ail

the t invocation they rtceived at the hands of
the Government were admirably, for the few
oturnercs con-mitted on the 24iu are trnced to a
band or those disorderly --pints abounding 1 11

pel ioris of fopular excitement to iriatry their

Prussia at least a match lor Franco as ono of

In the new settlement foreshadowed in the

by Prussia. This is not the equilibrium
anticipated b Napcieon; but if Prussia aud
Italy can si ctie their own tetins without his

to l"t them do so. In Jb.V.i, when he had
pushed his vie onous amy into the Austrian
Quadrilateral, he paused and made a half wav
treaty ol peace lor Italy, because the war at
that point threatened to assume larger propor

by exalting, the iioly l ather to the unmixed

Up to the present time the Atlantic csble has
been taken on trust. A ood deal of monoy has
been paid out by private persons tor telegrams
to be forwarded "through the cable" to Europe,
and lor messages purnoit'ng to have been
iccelved "through the cable" Irom Europe. One
or two journals, whose enterprise not nnl're
quently outruns both their own dl-cretion aud
the courie of human even1, have adveuturei
upon the publication of ".p rial dt spatche"
from small hotels in London; and tbe Associated

A Convention ot Equals.
i'Vom the Hatty Aw.
Every now and then eon.e citizen of a South
em State publishes a long letter to h'8 fellow
country n. en, advising toeru to bear themselves
more modestly and humbly in tne presence 01
the victorious North. We have u jv before us a
very long letter from one of tnese meek gentle
men, v. herein he counsels the people of Miosis
6ippi to instruct their delegates to (bo Phila
delphia Convention to appear in that body a3
"suitors" modestly eeekiug nothiug but "the
enioi cement ri the right ot representation,''
uLil observing on all other questions au attitude
ol fctiict neutrality,
tioin all such advice we earnestly dissent.
The uelepates 110m the tituitheru States ought not
to euier the l ouvention a9 "suitirs," but us free
t iti'.t ns ot our common republic, claimiug to be
uLd being ihe poors of tneir lellow-deiegates
Irom tbe North. It is as such that they have
boon invited to come. It is only as such that
they can honorably enter the Convention No
Northern neloe ate wLI no into that Convention
eipictiLg or wishing the Southerners to meet
him as bup plants, or otherwise than us equals,
and upon terms ot period equality.
The Convent on has not been called lor the
exclusive bcnetii of the South, but lor ihe cum
nion beueht of North and South ot the whole
country. To be sure, the inline Uale obiect ot
the Convention the reston-atiou to the Southern
States ot their Constitutional ik'hta-appar-mtly
concerns those States alone, but it really con
corns the North just as neuilj, tor it is uulv
tliiouch the cu'oicemett 01 the lust cla ms of
the South to a parricipation in the Goverumeut,
that the Conservatives 01 tbe North can hope to
acomre suthtiem strength to ieist the revolu-
t onary and de tiuctive purposes ol the radi
oals. The eniorcemeut ol tne right ot the
Southern States to participate lu tnd next
Preside ntlal eleMion is lust as impoitant to
the consi rvative teopio of the Nor h as it. is to
the people ol ti e South, aud be errs who think"
that the ear-icstness witn which the cousorva
lives urge tbe ticht ot the South to reorese'ita-
lion in Congress, springs altogether 'rom a sense
ol i tist ice. it springs i,i8o irom tbe conviction
that, unless that right be euiorced, theinseivis
will be involved in the ruin wbbth threa'cus
the South. Let these iact he borne in unud
and lot tbe delegates irom the Noun ami irom
the South enter the Convention as epnils, allies
ai.d iriends, houna to eacn o ner 0. a coiuin ui
li.terekt, aud seeking by united elfort 10 escape
a common daneor.
Ard egsin iUhouH b imdentood that th
E'oi thorn de'egate have no need to aupear lu
the i'hilsdi Iplna Convention a "suitors" beg
cine thai body to declare that the Pouth is
r ntitlod to representation in Congress. For it
must bo remembered that every Northern dclo
pate i am ady pledged by the vry terms of the
call to denisiid the cntorrement of that right.
Nort-hould tbe Southern delegates observe a
stilci iientral ty upon the other qustlons which
the Convi niton may cons der. Let them freely
cfcu's even matter which concerns them at
all. Ibev will be repectuilv listened to bv the
Convention and by the country. That Conven
tion has born called priaartly lor the nurpo-o
01 sect r ne their itpbt to ?pe8k in Congress on
all f nblects affecting their Interests, a right of
birh thev bne, in ihe opinion ot the caller
oi tbe Convention, been unju9 ly deprived bv
the revolutionary conduct of the radicsls in
Conpress. Noth ng could be more eb urd than
for a Convent on called tor such a puroose to
w if h to deny 'he tnllost latitude of discussion
within their ow n Hall to thf detonates from tne
South. lx;t tho Convention be a Convention
