Tub condition of the Southern States ia by no means satisfactory, and new fears and anxie ties have been awakened in the minds of many who were disposed to sympathize with the old ruling class of the South, by the numerous in dications of a desire to galvanize the Rebel lion. Perhaps, however, all parties have been too apt to forget how much of the mellowing Influence of time is necessary to perfeot great reforms, or to secure the advancement of an entire people. The debasing and pernicious influence of slavery could not, unfortunately, all be destroyed by the enactments which legally abolished It, and though it is now, in itself, a thing of the past, it leaves a long train of evils behind. Interwoven with the entire framework of Foutbern sooiety, it poisoned and careed everything it touched; polluting alike industry, morals, and politics. It is difQonlt to realize how far the South is behind the times in this age of progress, and that her citizens are now only taking their first basons in the free labor system which has prevailed for centuries in enlightened countries. In a Virginia railroad report, Which has recently appeared, the enterprise and industry of the farmers of one of the northern counties of the State is highly 09m xnended, and it is alleged that, "They gene rally do their own work to a considerable ex tent, and can therefore employ and profitably use as much colored labor as they need." This sig nificant sentenoe furnishes a key to the indus trial condition of the entire South. A large portion of the white population having been trained to despise and shirk all forms of useful labor before the war, have never yet changed their old habits, and in the midst of one of the most fertile and productive regions of the South, they rarely seek useful employment, and attribute the melancholy results of their own lack of industry and energy to the alleged idleness of the negroes. It would be singular if the latter had totally escaped the contaminat ing influences by which they have been sur rounded. In some cases they have too readily accepted the doctrines of their old masters. But as a rule the freedmen have undoubtedly been infinitely more industrious than the Rebels since the war. In the South, industry is almost exclusively confined to agriculture, and in the labors of the field it is especially neoessary that "he who by the plough would thrive, must take hold himself and drive." Those who have already perceived and aoted on this fact find themselves greatly benefited in an industrial point of view by abolition, and the chief sufferers are men who vainly deplore the days ef vast plantations, and of an obsolete system which drew its motive power from the legalized traffic in human flesh, and the free use of the plantation lash. The debasing effect of slavery on morals has repeatedly been de picted by the ablest writers. The worst pas sions of the human heart are nourished as in a hotbed, by a system whioh places one race under the absolute control of another, and gives unchecked lioense to every infamous emotion. Underlying everthing else in the South, the immense number of murders con stantly perpetrated there, on the slightest provocation, is of itself a powerful oause of lier continued poverty; and the prevailing want of regard for the sanctity of human life Is largely due to the brutalities and barbarities engendered by slavery; for the boundaries are but narrow between the guilt of dealing a Single fatal blow, and of robbing men piece meal of all that makes existence valuable. Murders are of such common occur rence in the Southern States, that they scarcely attract any marked at tention, and the number of murderers in many counties is so great that they exercise a con Eiderable influence in the jury box, and con victions are rare in any case in which the fatal deed was preceded by a quarrel. Much has been said of attracting Northern capital to the South, and not a few experiments have been made in that direction. A Senator from North Carolina recently stated that $10,000,000 Of Northern oapltal had been invested in that State alone since the war. Hundreds of thousands of enterprising emigrants would have gladly chosen new homes in the South after the war, and hundreds of millions of dollars would have followed them, if they had not been confronted everywhere with prejudioe and insult, which broke out wherever the slightest pretext was furnished, in open violence, and resulted, in many instances, in the robbery or murder of these pioneers of Northern civilization. The politios of the South, also, naturally takes its hue to a large degree from the old proslavery leaders who fomented the Rebel lion. Enraged beyond measure by the loss of their former ascendancy in the national ooum cils and the overthrow of their infamous Con federacy, they now regard with intensified hatred the efforts being made to meet and van quish them on their favorite stamping-ground, Within the confines of their respective States. Reconstruction has for the first time given to the entire people of the South a voice in their local Governments, and upon the snocess of the experiment it has inaugurated depends lu a large degree the future prosperity of that section. Whatever may be the faults or follies of the new men who have obtained power, it is utterly impossible that they oan exert ai Injurious am in finance as their Rebel predecessors, and they certainly deserve credit for their effort to diffuse the blessings of eduoatlon; to estab lish law and order; to organize aooiety on the basis of freedom, Justioe, and intelligence; to proseoute works of internal improvenent; to develops varied resources, and to proteo Northern oapital and capitalists. The South ern States needed reconstruction for the ad vancement of their internal interests, fully as mach as for the purpose of qualifying them to maintain proper and patriotlo relations with the Union, and the progress already made cannot fail to prove, in the end, highly bene ficial. The Ring. A sew British worthy has arrived, or been imported, in New York, with the view of re storing the past glories of the Ring, and that exemplary member of Amerioan sooiety, Mr. Morrissey, we perceive by latest accounts, has been introducing him to some of the moat dis tinguished of our Representatives and Sena tors. But with every disposition to speak without the smallest feeling of disrespoo towards Mr. James or "Jem" Ward, the indi vidual in question, we wish he will fail in his object. Jem is, in many respects, an estima ble man. and a highly honorable one, too In the palmy days ef the British Ring he hell his place honorably, and maintained his ground in the face of the renowned Tom Spring, and the not less redoubted Jem Cribb, both of these heroes now no more. lie, more over, has earned no small reputation in art; the walls of the tavern whioh he long kept in Leeds, and latterly in London, having been adorned with many productions of his brush which really reflected no small distinc tion on him, and would not have been deemed unworthy of a higher pretender to art. Jem, besides, is a gentleman in his aspect, and a gentleman in his demeanor. He still retains a high Roman nose, and does not rejoioein one of those battered organs whioh distinguish our own Heenan, and most of the present members of the ring. He is in all respeots fit to orna" ment the B. B. B. A., or the P. B. A. (Pugil ist's Beneficent Association), into whioh the original British Boxers' institution ha3 en larged itself, with the view of embracing within its folds all the "fancy" throughout the globe, but still, we repeat, it is to be hoped that Jem will fail in his object, if it be to perpetuate or extend such a system amongst us. The days are gone when the Prince Regent and the leading nobles r f England used to patronize the ring. The present prinoe 0 Wales, "rowdy" as in many ways he is, would not venture to make his appearance at a prize' fight. Such scenes in England are now oon fined to the vilest of the rabble, and in Soot land they never have been encouraged. The fight between Heenan and the English cham pion, Tom Sayers, was perhaps the last at which any men with the slightest claims to respectability dared to show themselves, and even then they were limited to juvenile officers of the Guards and sucking members of the aristocracy, who were encouraged by the interest which the late Premier of the country, Lord Palmerston, to his lasting dipgraoe, took in the affair. The guinea which that noble man sent on the occasion as a tribute to the English champion was not one of the least disreputable acts in his flagitious career; and though extolled by his toadies as evinoing his sympathy with "pluck," it was viewed with far different feelings by the better part of the nation, and wholly failed to assist in restoring what were termed the lost glories of the ring How the name of "glory" ever came to be associated with such an institution at all, strikes us with astonishment. At the best, a prize-fight is but a brutal exhibition of two in dividuals mutilating each other. The pretext that it is a manly art, and that it contributes to self-defense, is altogether false; for if a man familiar with the "science," as it is called assails another who is ignorant of it, the aot is a cowardly one; and if all are equally trained, it of course affords no protection. "Soienoe" seems nowadays to have degenerated too; for while such men as Spring, Cribb, and others, including our present hero, Jem Ward, showed themselves to be so far in pos session of it as to have been able to proteot their faces, almost all the present worthies of the ring are conspicuous for their broken noses. The absence of the prominent faolal organ seems indeed at present to be consid ered as an ornament, as every modern cham pion has it either battered in or most ooml oally knocked on one side; but we hold it to be a proof of the deoline of "science," as well as of the inorease of brutality, and that the modern professors are now no longer able to defend themselves as their predecessors did. But it is on aooount of the enormous mass of thieves and vilest members of every de scription in the community whom a prize fight invariably assembles, that we chiefly objeot to the obnoxious institution. It is no longer pretended that these are confined mainly to Ergland; for any one who saw the horrid assemblage who quitted New York to witness the late anticipated great fight ia the West cannot doubt that we are fully a matohin respeot for our Trans-Atlantio rivals. Such a hideous mass of villainy perhaps never before fell ' under mortal eye. Not a vestige of re spectability or "fashion" was present . in it. It is a proud boast, we think, for Amerioa, that a courageous Western magistrate, by arresting the combatants in advanoe, and Bending them for forty days to Jail for contem plating a breaoh of the peaoe, effectually stopped the reoently designed great prize-fight; and if our other Justices will imitate the ex ample of the California Sheriff, who has an nounced his resolution la the future to institute proceedings, not only against the principals, but all who are present at such scenes, includ ing even members of the press who attend for the purpose of reporting them, we shall hear little more of prize-fighting in the United States. Onr Mistaken India roller. Thbri can be no doubt but that it is neoessary for the Government to adopt a line of polioy totally different from that at present pursued towards the Indian tribes. We are not writing in anger when we say that it would be emi nently proper for ns to seleot as our line of action a vigorous and merciless polioy towards these treacherous and cruel savages. It is true that the telegraphs from the West should cease to daily narrate deeds of assassination, arson, and wholesale murder. While Peaoe Commis sioners are treating and pow-wowiog with the ohitfs, the young braves are on the war-pathi and crime in every hue ia being committed. Let ns do away with this stale pretense of treaties. Send out a regiment, pursue with out mercy these bandj of depredators, and when found shoot them down as though they were wild animals. As matters at present stand, we are aoting a parody on retribution' and exposing onr frontiers to these fearful outrages. The blood of our fellow-citizens cries aloud for vengeance; and the dangers of the living unite with the demands of the dead, to cause ns to abandon a policy as weak and foolish as it is criminal. P. CoorKR to H. Beymour. Tbe New York Herald, of this morning, thus faoeliouMy refer to Peler Cooper's letter to Horatio Seymour, which we published in full yesterday: "Peter baa written another letter. Not that there rai any subject up with woich be bad any peculiar acquaintance. Not even that he had any thlug to say, If we may Judge by the letter. Out tbe glue buHlness was probably dull, time was banging heavily on the old gentleman's hand and he bad a great many scraps ou blstabW cuttings from recent papers tbat he did not Use to throw away, and did not know what to do with, and so be pnt them on paper with hi own glue, and wrote little connective notes be" tween.and addressed the composition to the Democratic candidate. This is onr theory of Peter's letter; for we would like to give it a rea sonable obaracter out of respect to the veteran who served the oountry through the last war with England 'by substitute,' and who in bis old age does not want to see tbe country he thereby belped to save made tbe 'sport of foreign and domestic Barcens.' Bat we would advise Peter not to write any more letters, not even 'by substitute.' lie does very well in glue." FniLADKLPHiANS ABROAD. The following list of PbllaUelphlans are registered at Drexel.

The State eleotlon takes place Sept. It The Maryland Contest. A warm contro versy la going on between the Baltimore American and the Baltimore Gazette, in regard to tbe conservative movement in Maryland. The American, In reply to tbe declaration that Baltimore had a Democratic majority last fall of 13,000, reminds It tbat from eight to ten thousand registered voters failed to deposit tbeir ballots. They will be beard In the Presidential contest. In no Instance have two-thirds of the registered voters of Maryland voted; besides, tbe conservative Democrats want peace, and there is good reason to hope tbat tbey will withdraw from the radical De mocracy." If all tbe Democrats who repudiate tbe Gazette would vote for Grant and Colfax, the American declares that the Slate would be carried against Seymour. Proper. A Democrat io Journal in this city has tbe following editorial item this morning: "A negro orator, in the course of a speech recently delivered at a radical meeting in Georgia, said: 'I have no confidence in the white men who say tbey are with us. I am for tbe negroes, and I believe the whites are for themselves. The whiles who pretend to be for ns, will desert us In time of trouble. The negroes should stand by and for themselves.'" We observe, however, tbat our Seymour friend neglects to state tbat the "negro orator" re ferred to was the notorious A. A. Bradley, who was ignomlnlonsly thrust out of bis seat in the Georgia Senate by an almost unanimous vote.

Ives, tbe Chaplain of the State Prison at Auburnt asserted a few days slnoe that Horatio Sey mour, after he had been defeated by Governor Fenton, pardoned over sixty convicts from that prison, the pardons to take effect after the first of January. In this way the opprobrium of the mutter was thrown upon Governor Fenton, TI1E WISCONSIN CYCLONE. Owe Wow a a Ktll.d ewd a Little Child CarrUei Up ska Air.
