THE DAMr EVENING TELEGRAril PHILADELPHIA, FIUDAY, AUGUST 21, 1368. SPIRIT OF TEE PRESS. tDITORUt OPINIONS OF Till IBADINO JOURNALS UPON CCBBBNT TOPICS COMPILED BVBUT DAT FOB THI BVFNINO TKLKOBAPH. A Hairs iu Tennessee. From the N. Y. Times. The pioture presutel Vy oar Tennessee cor respondent of I Lib coLditiou of a Hairs in that State, is not calculated to Bliajr appreueuslon or to reconcile ua to tho teiurer ot the South ern maleon'.euts. btories ot outrage have not been rare for Borne tiun past. They have been circuuistautial, have ou all tBseutial points teen veiiliei, and nave been Fiillicieut to prove A ntar approach to sociul au l industrial disor ganization. The sta-.t-iueut we print this morning differs from these ouly iu its oinpre bensiveuees. It groups facts derived from all pans of the State, ami fasteus upon Jnloyal persons and organizations the responsibility lor a crisis not iuiny degrees removed troin civil war. What tome have supposed to be incidental iu its character, aud uonliued to particular localities, is thowuto be couiuioii to nearly all sections, aud to be the product of au inveterate hoatility to the authority aud friends Of the I'nion. Color appears to lie less a crime in Tennes see than loyalty. Tne negroes sullur first, of course. Their weakness mvites violence, aud their terror keeps them Irom proclaiming its exercise. They aie wronged, robbed, even nuiidered, wbh almost complete impuuity. The boldness which hasinaiked some of the outrages seeuH, indeed, to indicate a paralysis of civil authoiny, lor which a paiallel ni.ty be sought in the diMintrotis flaivu of Kmsa-t. White loyalists, moreover, Puller scarcely less. Social oatiacism they might outlive, though that is bad enough. Hut ttiey are maltreated, stripped of pioperty, Hogged, aud sometimes killed, and in a general way are denied the exercise of their lights as citizens. If they arraign the perpetiators of oiiuies, or attempt the lormation of Republican organization, they do so al the peril ot their lives. It they attend Ilepublioau demonstrations, they are compelled to travel by by-paths and at night to escape assassination. In this epitou.e of the po.-ilion of loyal fami lies in the State we are not sketching from imagination. We mention facts which the local press either suppresses, or distorts or publishes impel f-ctl.v, because it is for the most part in the hands ol Rebels. When one leading journal ot Memphis bids its reaiers "set the law-at defiance," aud auother rebukes the Ku-Klux lor not having "the hearts of radicals on their rtagg-rs," aud when the most widely circulate! papers of the State share these feelings, the cliiccj of a fair hearing for mariyra to UuiuuUui, l they white or black, is exceedingly slight. Our ourre.-poudent tes tifies, however, whereof he kuos, and his version of the case is iu the main sustained by the inijtiiiies of a committee of the local Legislatuie. The first effect of this disturb d condition is upon the property and industry of the State. In its natural advantages its soil, climate, resources of the forest aud the mine, and in its geographical position it has no Superior in the Union. J5ut how long will Northern men continue to go there, or beiug there will remain, at the risk of beiug hunted by outlaws or robbed ot the ineaus they pro pose to employ 1 The mere stoppage ol immigration would be a calamity, but it is inevitable unless lawlessness be put down. Lojal settlers are driven out, or leave to seek Security elsewhere. Business is brought to a stand-still, and the value of property expe riences a large aud coustaut depreciation. In the nature of things it must be so. And there can be no amendment until the issue raised by the diallecled iu Tennessee be dis posed ol summarily. The danger for the moment seen is that of local collisions. The Unionists of the S)uth are peaceful, but they are not cowards. Thjy ask simply the safety which the law is sup posed to guarantee, aud the liberty to exercise their rights aud pursue their vocations, to which white and black are entitled. Hat the time is evidently coming in which they may be compelled to defend themselves against Ku klux and all other outlaws. It were better they should be spared the trial. It were more desirable by far that punishment should be meted out by the State authorities, with the aid of the militia, if necessary. Still the risk exists. The loyal part of the population will sot always pel nut the disloyal to brand aud banith at will; and out of this latent determi nation may spting the organized strife which cot a few anticipate. The Democratic leaders predict a coullict as a result of auy attempt of the Executive to iusure protection and punish ment; but his course ought to ba clear, re gardless of consequences. We are not among the admirers of Uoveruor Urotvnlow. As be tween the law and its violators, however, or between Union men adhering to the law and disloyal men setting the law at deli inoe, there is no room for hesitation, no lime for parley. We wish we could believe that the3e tliing3 are confined to Tennessee. But they are not. I'assion may be more intense there than iu States more recently reconstructed; the ele ments of strife may be nearer the explosive point; but that they abound, with greater or less force, in several other parts of the South, is nufortunately incontestable. In Texa-i, Rebel lawlessness is not a whit less aggressive than in Tennessee; aud (iovernor Waroiouth's ap peal for Federal help proves that LouisUua is not much better. There, as in the districts described in our Nashville correspondence, violence and murder, as penalties of attachment to the Union, are events of frequent occur rence. And the same state of things will ba reproduced in Georgia, if Cobb aud other De mocratic leaders liud followers vile euot'.gh to do their bidding. It is impossible to real Cobb's reoent harangue without feeling that his spirit is as prosenptive, as murderous as that of any common Ku-Klux cut-throat. Aud as with Buchanan's Secretary of the Treasury, so it is with others who are engaged with him in the canvass for Seymour aud Blair. They do not onenly advise the killing of Unionists, but they do propose that they be treated like dogs, and if possible driven from Southern commu nities. They mke no secret of their resolve to make the South too hot for whites who vote the Republican ticket; and as for the bla:ks, they are to be starved, or by soirn other uieam coerced iuto the ranks of the Democracy. If there is auy difference between these denun ciations aud incendiary counsels of Georgia plauters and the acts ot Tennessee ruflUnism, it is in degree only. Both are iu their natitra identical. . All's W ell Unit lanls Well. From the Cincinnati Gazette. A very large controversy over a very stntU subject has sprung up in the Second uhio District. The real question at issue there is Whether a renegade Republican shall be eleoted under false pieteusea by the Democrats whom ho has joined, or whether a true Republics, Whofe consistent IHelity and z-al in the Kh publicau oigKijijtiou during an 1 siu.x t'ie war are recognid on rill hands, be elected on the lej'iilrtr phi' 'urn, and u'Ur tLe regular noiniuutiou of his pai ly in qneption we do not propose to Im I Small side issues eaHy preaed I diverted by opponents anxious to shift the scene of einttet as to What may or may not have bteu the Views of the Republican nominee at. tie outbreak or through the early months of the war, deserve very little atteutiou. What has seemed necessary to refute the slanders ou the Republican candidate, from time to time we have published, and we give, this morning, a careful statement from lVtuecratio authority, that of itself effectually disposes of them. Aud now we have done. The pother on either side in this small con troversy is wonderful. We have cards aul counter cards; statements of special reporters, and extracts dug from the musty liles of for gotten country newspapers. A papr which believes the war was wrong aud boasts that it so believed all through the war, objects to the Republican candidate that he continued for a few mouths of its way o thinking I A paper whiih has consistently advocated the right of secession objects to the Republican cau iidate that at the outbreak of the war he retained for a litt'e while some of its notions 1 A paper which is committed at once to the fluaucUl follies of I'endleton, the hard money spneuhos of Seymour's opposition to the war while it lasted, and opposition to peace aud roon struction when it was ended, opposes a can li date in 1S0S because it snys he agreed with it for a few months in 1 And over this the I at tie rages.

That Mr. Stevenson was a hearty, zealous Republican through the war, aud that ho h;is bten so ever since, nobody questions or pre tends to question. That he was as true to the Government and to the lojal people who sus tained it in the daik days of Fredericksburg aud the second Ball Run as in the bright days of Yhksburg and Atlanta aud Cedar Creek, nobody questions or pretends to question. That he has since been faithful, while more than one turned leader has proved faithless ou the is-Ue3 arising from the close of the war, nobody ques tions or pretends to question. That is enough tor us. We are fighting a battle for order or chaos at the South tor the leconstiuctiou already accomplished, aud I eaco and a settlement, or practical revolu tion. We do not piopose to belittle it by fur ther certificates that f oum of our candidates were a little more or a little less prompt iu joining the Republican p-uty in loiil, tliau tLe great mass ol war Democrats, whose accession saved the Government. l'uiing that life and death struggle of the nation we did not stop to make critical inquiry as to the antecedents of the men who volun teered to help us. Now that bv their aid we have conquered we do not prooe to become suddenly suspicions. We do not go btck over the field peeking about to see whether, our recruits gave sone serious thought to their action, aud hesita'ed a little before break ing loose from party ties. But we do remember some who, under the pressure of aroused pu'olio sentiment, were shamed or frightened iuto a counterfeit pre tense of devotion to the country, but at the first convenient opportunity, deserted again to the enemy in the hour of the country's sorest peril. Of such were the conductors of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Leprous with the infamy of that desertion, they have no power now to fasten stigmas upon loyal Democrats who came to the aid of the nation about the time they betrayed it. The Antiquity of Hadieal CrimiiiuIMj. From the Wusluwjlon National Intelligencer. There is a mysterious but inevitable affinity between atrocity which is systematic, and the enthusiasm naturally attendant upon pseudo religious sentiment, raise religion no sooner allies itself with the passions than it inspires refinements ot wrong, aud invents perversions ol conscience; and such crime no sooner grows methodical thau it persuades itself that it is sanctilied by the Deity. This unuatural and ttrnble combination of things occupying the extreme poles of the constitution of man, is undoubtedly the sign of a stage of sin, at which the conscience, debauched by the pas sious, wantons through the mind. Ages of blood, of torture, of hypocrisy, and of impos ture, in all climes, and amoug all peoples, testify with bitter intensity the excuse of the atheists of the last century for the unwarrant able charge, that religion itself was an evil, aud the priestly oihce the curse ot mankind. i he universality of this hateful reciprocity between deliberate crime and materialized re ligion demonstrates its seat, independently of conditions, deep in the heart of man. Ttie insatiable greed, the merciless humiliation of the weak, the remorseless cruelty of those who go under the name of Radical toward the Southern people, is charitably and generally imputed to excess of loyalty, intemperate paliiotism, and fanatical devotion to ideas, all grounded in our own age, conutry, institu tions, and political education. But U is, most evidently, quite otherwise. The circumstauces of the rise, the outbreak, the conduct, and the fall of the rebellion have had very little inlluence ou the dreadful spirit which has covered tea States with . gene ral calamity, iLflicted gratuitous sorrow upon every individual inhabiting them, aud actually tended to coerce them back into barbarism The age and country did, indeed, furnish the words wherewith the cant without which the tongue of common speech would dissolve the fatal self-delusion was forged; but the caut itself, ancient as falsehood, was the same which defiles all history with its abominable distillations from mingled murder and blas phemy. The gigantic iustance of our own very day caunot be distinguished iu substance from one which disgusts us across a tract of time beginning hundreds of years before Christ, if the following were a fable, who but the radicals of to-day would be recoguized as figured by it ? In l'wi sia there is a mountain on whose side, three hundred feet from the plain, is carved in the solid rock the celebrated inscription iu which Darius commemorates his exploits in subduing, as ours in punishing, a rebellion in his empire. Modern penetration has resolved the strange characters, aud interpreted the effigies of the kiog and his captive. Sitrau- tachnies, the rebel, stands abject, a symbol of the subdued rebellion, before the proui aud successful monarch, while overhead a figure represents the groat God Ormuzd to the l'ertiaus. Below is the inscription. This is some of it: "lty the (M'hco of Ormuz I, I am Icing O.'ninzl Iihh tirauleu ine empire. Oiniud brought, help tome. By the grwee of Oiiiinzt my iroopseu tin IV b Itnletl the Rebel Briny, unit tooif HI linntflcbniesand hrougbl lit n bef irome. Tnen I cut i II Iuh nose and c.ir. lie was kept ctiuined at my cot.

This inscription, without its frightful siui pli i'.v, is writt-n in every measure of thd rail'Cil paity, and the ur utry his been co:i viil.-t d lor three years liy their ait -nipf-i to kject it into the Constitution of thi United From thl Staten. Ormuz'l is their Ood, Darius their exemplar, and the South thir Sitrautaohinei. Will tie people longer le governed by the fl.iglston inscription of, Darius the typical rebellion-punisher; or by their own niatcuUss and beneficent Constitution? Tlie New Democratic Organ. From the iV. Y. Tribune. The lion. Mark M. Tomeroy, the greit De mocratic editor aud statesman of the West, has honored us with a copy of his "new natioual daily paper," the Utmorrat. We are glad to have an opportunity ofcongralulating Mr. Til deu and his frieuds"that tbey are about to hive an organ that will force tin lighting." We have been convinced that the disgust which th pure Democracy otNetv Yoik fell lor the llr.ritld mid the M orld would take expression iu this form. It was impossible for a great parly, a p.'trty of Ins'y, zealou-", and bold meu,to forever fallow the uncertain leadership of the Herald, or to find comfort iu the endless columns of twaddle which the hangers on of the M iuhat tnn Club daily distil into the New York W'vrld. They have yearned for a leader like l'oineroy; and now Pomeroy comes among them, a Saul among Democratic prophets, aud raises the banner of true Democracy iu Ke w York. Mr. Pomeroy informs us that his paper will be "red hot;" that it will be "a true, reliable, ont-niid-out leUiocratio daily piper;" that it will be "the sharpest, plainest, most reaiable, best edited, aud most interesting daily pjp-r ever i.-sued iu Ameiica;" and that "it will per sistently aud Ublliuchiugly advocate the eqm- hty vi Mates or another war," lie also assures us, that in arrangiug this platform, it is "with a full knowledge ol the wauts of the people, their Sentiments, and demands." The differ ent uttweeii nr. I'omeroy and the otuer 1m- mociatic editors is, that he is sincere. He claims to be a Democrat, and nothing else. Apeiiodieal writer recently nude a seitsv.ion by publishing the history of "The Wickedest Man in Xew York" Mr. John Alleu ot Water street. What Mr. Allen is to Tew Yoik society, Mr. I'omeroy is to American ournalism. lie is the "Wickedest" edi tor in the country, and doesn't claim to be anything else. Mr. Alleu makes his living by haiboiing prostitutes, selling "red hot" liiiuor. haviujr "red-hot" diace. and generally lurnishing his guests with a "red hot" entertainment. The consequence is that Mr. Allen is a b-loved denizen ot VVater street, and on the h'gh road to fortune. Mr. Pome roy proposes to publish a "red-hot news per." lie will do justice to the virtues of V likes Booth; he will tell us of the loves of Grant, among the Diuirer Indians, and about Butlei's enormous laiceny of spoons, and will illiistiate the torments of the "gorilla Lin coln" as he "rois's in the lowest hell." Mr. John Allen, if he were to start a newspaper to rival Pomeroy, could not more aptly suit the !) m cratio taste. It is all very well for those cnrled darlings of the Manhattan Club, tod den wit'-i the fumes of Mr. Birlow's cham pagne, to write their rhetoiic.il iribbles about the Constitution and the la vs; but the true- hearted Democrat, the Dnuocrat who coes to the polls aud assists iu swelling the great Democratic majority of New York, wants just such teaching as Mr. Pomeroy proposes to give him. Ihe only d'.fliroilry with Mr. Pomeroy 8 en terprise is, that about nine-tenths of the De mocratic party cannot read, lie is, therefore, very mucli iu the position of Goldsmith who went to Holland to teach Eugliah, and upon ariiving there found he could not talk Dutch. This is one reasou for the confidential circula tion of the World, although another is that, even if the masses of the Democracy could read tho If orld, they would not be able to under stand it. Mr. I'omeroy will meet this dillioulty ly printiiig abundant illustrations. Vre shall have pictures of Grant in every stage of intoxi cation; of Butler as "the Lowell Shyster," "spoon-thief," and "bank robber;" of the "gentleman" Booth in all the glory of his patiiotic virtue; and of "Abe" Lincoln in all the merited agony of eternal punishment. There are few Democrats so ignorant that they cannot understand a picture; and by this means the Wickedest Editor in America will succeed in instructing the Democracy in the tenets of their faith. The advent of Mr. Tomeroy is a matter that more immediately concerno the World, the tit raid, and the Axpress than it does the 7'rt Imne. At the same time, it is an event in New Yoik journali m. It was something to kuow that we had Mr. John Allen iu Water street, and that he represented a phase of metropoli tan society. It is also something to kuow that we nave Mr. Brick Pomeroy in journalism, and that be leads a mighty and well-disciplined party, as lor the World, it serves no pur pose either useful or ornamental, except to print the inexhaustible letters of George T. Curtis and the interminable speeches of Mr. iiiden. it would be a sad thing for Mr. Curtis not to have an organ; and Mr. Tilden iu the Agony of unreported ppeeches is a subjeot too oreadtui lor contemplation. But what will be their loss will be the gain of the party gene rally. The Herald is not in so much danger, Mr. Pomeroy has great genius, bat Mr. Ben nett, if the pinch comes, can teach him how to make a paper "so unmistakably Democratic that people will know what it means the first reading." . The Presidential Contest The Degradation of the Party Press Some Mcciuieii Bricks. From trie A". Y Herald. Henry A. W'ise, of Virginia, who, although a fire-eater, has alwajs been something of a philosopher, once upon a time, on the lower floor of Congress, thanked God that there was not a newspaper in his (the Accouiac) Disx trict. . He had seen euough of the vulgar per sonalities aud scandalous accusations of the Richmond party press of that day to be thank lul that there was no newspaper within the limits of his bailiwick. Nor, with all our "modern improvements" since that time, has party journalism, North or South, improved iu the matter of decency. It is, as it was, a disgrace to the American press, aud a scandal to the country. Appealing to the basest pas sions and prejudices of the baser sort, it slocks the moral sense of honest-thinking men We give this morning, elsewhere in these crdumns, a specimen editorial from a leading Republican organ, and a sample from a very pretentious Democratic organ, and some other extracts, as illustrations ot the reason why the aforesaid Wise, in his Chinese isolation, felt thanklul to God that there was no newspaper in his Lougressional District. Fii st we will glance at a leader from the New York Tribune, headed "Vallaudigham on the Finances," in which these dainty passages occur to strengthen the argument: "Mr. Val laudicham deliberately lies:" "Whoever con troverts this is a foolish reckless liar;" "Any villain who now savs they (the five-twenties) are pajable in greenbacks would as readily say tbev should never bd nam at an; "Mr, Vallandigham says the bondholder paid only five hundred dollars for a bond calling for a thousand. Herein the villain lies no less ba.-ely thau before." "Mr. Vallandigham says that he is in favor of 'one currency for all, and gold for all.' In this he lies as usual;" and so on, with "knavery," "swindling," "s'louu dielbm," idid "indelible infamy," fo the en I oi the chapter. Tliehu are pet phrases with ihe 'ril-itne htuoaidtarinns. It a' ftviu the mild and bcuevideut Greeley that Lis patty contemporary, Raymond, acquired the title of "The Little Villain," and the venerable Thnr low Weed the distinction of "The Old Vil lain." And we think it was to the "waterfowl" and patriarchal post of the VoU that tho Vi olin censor called out, "You lie, villain, you lie I" Such is the philanthropy of our radical philosopher in discussing party politics, lis scolds them like a very drab, aud "as the old cock crows the voumt onea learn." Hence from the debasing lessons of their leading journals the general demoralization of the party press and the reeking corruption of our political parties. Next we give a leading editorial from n prominent Copperhead organ a great pre tender to diguity and decorum as well as chop logio au nitide headed "Insanity in the S-y-uiour Family." Iu this article a certain state ment of facts in reference to "insanity iu the Seymour family" is, in a rouudabout way, ponsideied; but the facts are not denied. The advocate of Mr. Seymour undertakes rather to show that the danger of hereditary iusauity is less to be feared iu a public mau thau "beastly intoxication." For instance, it is urged that "to whatever ancestral tendencies Governor Seymour may be exposed, it will not be disputed that up to the present time he is a man of sound mind;" that "his faculties have never once been clouded or disordered or his Self-control lost by beastly intoxica tion." Again, "he was never compelled by bis incorrigible addiction to strong drink to resign a cemmisoiou iu the army to avoid dicinissal " Aud yet again: "Between a man who is not insane and one who is au iuebriate, it is safer to rely on the m-utal soundness of the former than of the Litter." Il-re, as au answer fo a presumption of possible lunacy against Seymour from a Republican orgin, ve Lave a positive charge from a Democratio orgHU of "an incorrigible addiction to strong ink against Wraut. Tlie same charge, jowever, in 1(13, was brought up from Vicks- buig against Grant by a committee of Puri tanical Maine law men "to Honest Old Abe." And what was his reply ? "Tell me, geutte men, the favoiite brand of his whisky, aud I will send a barrel of it to every General in the aimy." It would be a sorry state of affi'rs ind-ed, if, at this imp rtant epoch in our history, the .nitiicau people weie reduced in their choice ot a Piesident to a drunkard or a lauatio. But while it is simply impossible that auy man with an intellect iu any degree clouded or obscuied could have given us the public record ot General Grant ot the last eight years, iu the field and in the Cabinet, we think it morally ceitain that Horatio Seymour, in coming sound in mind out of the late Demo cratic National Convention, after Iviug nomi nated in spite of himself, and on the lVudleton plat'orm and by the I'endleton hsooit, will bo competent, if required, to run that gauntlet of the clhce-Reekers at Washington which was the a'h of Harrison and lay lor. We fear, how ever, that, as with poor fierce and iSuchauan, Seymour, if elected, will be apt to fall into the hands of the old school ot southern fire- eaters a misfortune which would be worse to himself and the country than lunacy or intoxi cation. We are, however, dealing with the degrada tion of the party press. The extracts we lay betore our readers in exposition of this deplo rable degradation will account for the rise aud advance into power iu this country of the in dependent press that class of public journals which have no favors to ask of party politi cians or party juntas aud no frowna to fear; journals which do not depend for their exist ence npon the rise or downfall of politicians or parties, but which rest for their support upon the independent thinking masses of the people, regardless of party. We have shown the demoralization of two of the leading party organs of this city. The Hun, the Tunes, and Journal of Commerce deserve to be mentioned as journals, independent or partisan, which pursue the discussion of public affairs and public men with a proper regard to decency aiid an enlightened constituency. The Herald has seen enough of political parties and party organs, nnd it baa too long followed the path. of an independent public opinion to become the slave and the follower at this late day of any party or any man. l aw nnd Order iu Washington. From the JV. Y. World. ji arithmetic were not a seditious science, and sight a disloil sense, we should have hopes ot converting even the Iribune Irom the error of its ways. The letter we print to-day irom Washington snows us now communities prosper which are under the control of the race which it is proposed to equalize with the fiee white men of the North, and to exalt above the tree white men ot the South. Negro legis lation has been tried on a small scale at the national capital, and the consequence is that every department of the municipal govern ment there is in a scandalous condition. The street lamps are left unlit, the fires which are set going by the carelessness of negroea in kitchens, are left to burn at their own sweet will by the carelessness of negroes in engine housts; no ready money is forthcoming t meet the daily expenses even of the schools and the police, aud criminals are left at larce. unless they happen to be traitors to moral ideas, as well as to the social order. We are assured that a week's sojourn iu that town would suffice to show, to auy person fit to be without the walls of an idiot asylum, the im possibility of any department of things beiug even tolerably conducttd which is put under control of the man and brother who is there held in check by the numerical predominance ot the white race, but who. In some ot the Southern States under the new order of things that the party which plumes itse f upon beiug a party ot progress proposes to establish thf re, is altogether unchecked. It these things are done in ths green tree, what may we not expect to be done in the dry ? LucXily we are not left to analogy or to faucy to discover. 1 he other day we published a letter from llayti, where the experiment of the colored man s capacity for self-government has been tried for many years, and under auspices more lavorable than can lie hoped for it elsewhere Washington is the blade, Savaanah the ear, but for the full corn in the ear we must go to Poit-au-Priuce. There the policeman no longer keeps up a pretense of existing as a conservator oi puono oruer, hut his ostensible function, as in Washington his rea one appears to be, la that of a vent forpnblio moneys. In name, as iu fact, the nasty squabble between the two hordes of blacks who are now carrying on what they call a revolution in that uuhapoy island, is a squabble for the funds which are spent upon the establishments of the Baron Grog and the Dnke of Lemonade. Macaulay has said that to judge ot a party we must take, not its pro fes.-ions when it is iu opposition, but its mat tice vhen it is in power. The same is true when it is the qualifications of a race that are the subject of discussion. It is a much more passable gulf which separates Washington tioui i'ort-au-1'rince than ttiat which divide the Washington of ten years ago from th Washington of to-day, or the Washlnntou o to-d:iy from what may be the New Yoik of ten yeais hence, unless sauit f h.dl levisit th minds t f na n, and the crazy "reconstruction' legislation of the lust three years be so ino li fied as to ive the control of Southern politics i.iid Southern socii-ty to the beiit elements in it, iubUad of the very worst. 213 220 S.
