pelt if a lront ono can be had short of
a fight. They can uhvays be beard,
and if you meet them, whether in the
cars, in a stage or at a hotel, you arc
always savod tho trouble to inquire
who they are, what their business is,
and more especially where ihcif are
from. Should he bo from lloaling, all
his comparisons and illustrations will
be founded upon this, that, and tho
other thing, event, circumstance, con
dition, or affair in Boston. He de
lights to chime in the name of Boston,
and will tell you of many things
"down in Boston where 1 live." It is
the hub of tho universe to him, and
hisselfconceitand vanity clingaround
it as do flies around a sugar bowl.
But while his business ostensibly is
to sell pot lid lifters or Greeley's Con
flict of tho American war, bo takes
advantage of his leisure moments to
ppout politics, on the grand-nioral-
idea basis, for tho enlightenment of
the Jhitch and benighted sons oi
Pennsylvania or 6omo other region
outside the Paradiso of Yankecdoin.
He believes in impartial suffrage and
has an admiration for tho beauties of

WjLTCtspect any honest and upright
man from .New England just as much
as any other man, but we despiso the
Yankee peddlers with their pot-lid
lifters anil their infernal mean and
lying literature. Wo want none of
their literature. Wo have had too
much of it. Tho country his been
ruined by it, and it is timo now that
all sensible men shut down on Yankee
literature, Yankee agents and Yankee
peddlers. To Iemocrats, then, we
say: Patronize these Cains and won
dering vagabonds no more, but let
them stay at homo and make an hon
est living by tilling their barren lulls
or catching cod-tisii, or let them settle
among us, pursue an Imnorublo pro
fession or occupation and mind their
own business.
A Bp.o'ad as Long. Tho Radicals
contend that because there was a riot
in New Orleans, tho South nhould be
denied their Constitutional rights.
Let them answer whether they think
tho Northern people should be denied
their Constitutional rights, because
Republicans havo by mob violence
time nnd again torn out newspaper
offices, because they have mobbed and
inflicted personal injury upon Demo
crat", becauso innocent men have
without warrant of law been torn from
their homes and imprisoned because
in tho North the Union men have
been persecuted by tho Radicals polit
ically and socially, in their business,
and even in their churches. The ar
gument is as broad as long, only a
little more so.
J2fTho enemies of President John
son ask, Why don't he punish the
traitors? We answer, for tho simple
reason that ho has not got the power.
According to tho Constitution, Con
gress has tho power to punish treason
in individuals, and when it me'., Pres
ident Johnson had nothing to do with
tho punishment of Jeff. Davis or any
other criminal. Congress adjourned
without even sanctioning the trial of
Jeff. Davis. Jsow, what was their
reason for so doing, if they bad no
ympnthy for traitors. But President
Johnson has to take the blame. This
is unjust. Let Congress take the
bhimo 1'or not makiti ' treason odious.

But the history of the Confederate

Anuersonville, through some presump

tho proposition referred to as made
by Commissioner Ould, to exchange
men and leave the surplus at the dis
position ol tho enemy. It was fol

under tho direction of the Secretary
of War, and seeing plainly that there
was no hope of any general or extend

to the Federal agent of exchange.
Gen. Mulford, to deliver to him all
the sick and M-ounded Federal pris
oners we had without insisting upon
the delivery of any equivalent number
of our prisoners iii return, lie also
informed Gen Mulford of the terrible
mortality among the Federal prison

transportation to the mouth ot the
Savannah river, for this the purpose of
taking them away, lhe offer ot Com

lie further informed Gen JIulford,
in order to make the Government safe
in sending transportation, that if the
sick and wounded did not amount to
ten or filteen thousand men, iho Con
federate authorities would make up
that number in well men. The offer,
it will bo recollected, was tnado early
in August, ISO.'). Gen. Mulford informed
Commissioner Ould that it was direct

yet no timely advantage was ever
taken of it.
This interesting and important fact
