REBEL PACIFICATION.
The copper presses take exception ,
to our " tone " towards -" the people
t
of lie south." We are reminded by
mote . than one copper sheet that
the, e people are now " fellow-citi
zens and brothers" and that it is
,
not either generous or politii3 to
I
speak of them as rebels and traitors,
and to denoutice them ai constantly
plotting - eviL The' rebuke might
come with some force 'and really be
entitled to ',owe consideration if it
were founded in truth. We claim
that there is - absolute, political folly
and danger in - entrusting the control
of the national government and the'
managsment of all its Complicated
affairs to men who have been for
eight years fighting as hard as they
could to destroy. the government, and .
who caused whatever comfilications
there are ; and this though` - their re
pentance were perfect. We farther
claim that their affiliation with north
ere Democrats, and their zeal to des
troy the party by whom their mad
ness was defeated, is an evidence
that their sentiments have not yet
fully reached a , Tellable point. We
further claim that their language at
the New York ,Convention was in
ceediary ; and 'still further, that the
general tone of speech by all promi
nent men in all parts' of the south is.
marked by a bitter and revengeful
spirit ; that it is deadly towards the
Union party and bitterly inimical to
the faithful administration of the
country. And therefore we add, that
the, rebels need further political su
pervision, and that ;the party with'
which they are ' wedded almoskto a
man must be kept out of power.
Here is the late language of - men
who are fairly and confessedly rep
resentatives of the southern senti
ment. These are men who are and
long have been been influential there
and who may be properly selected
as the stags and organs of the feel
ing referlfff to. We ask if this lan
guage indicates inch a pacification
as will justify patriots• or sensible
people of any kind, 1 politicians or
business men, in consenting that
power should be placed-in their con.
trot ?• -
The. Memphis Appeal says :
" . 0o on, boys ; ; swear to murder
northern Huns. 5 ‘ Armyourselv9s and
organize, and' be ready to respond
promptly when called on, and fight
bravely even if you get illed."
General Wade Hampton says :
"I yield to none In devotion to
at 'lost cause' for which we fought
ever shall I admit that the cause
itself' failed, and Abet the principles
which gave it life were wrong. Nev

John Forsythe, of Albama, says :
" Denounce the loyal league upon
every occasion; organize a Ku Kluz
Klan - whenever they organize a

Christians should; meet midnight

Ramsay, of Georgia, says . ;
"We have aroused in our might
once' more, under the leadership of
Seymour and . Blair, to raise the Con
stitution from the. that. Georgia has
passed through a fiery ordeal. Some
of her children, during the war she
was compelled to wage, deserted her
'and joined her enemies. Let thent
'be ,like Arnold, forever- accursed: l -
We have seen our soldiers fall, our
cities in. flame's, our citizens torn
from peaceful homes. We looked

Robert Toombs, of the State, says:
" The reconstruction acts are null
and void,- and shall not stand. *
* * * The grinning skeletons
which have been setup in our midst

Frank Blair, whom our party has ex

The Petersburg, Va , Index says:
"Should deliverance from Radical

in the South to whom life will be
come so worthless that they would
gladly throw it away to be =Avenged

Howell Cobb says:
"I want to express it and urge it
upon you, until there shall exist in
the heart and soul of every son and

_soil this conviction, that these

these men who called upon to vote
for Grant and Celfax, and that Grant
and Colfax, who have indorsed , these
things,, are neither worthy of your
vote, your respect or your confidence
much less of your kindness ,and hos
pitality. My friends, they are your
enemies. I state it in a cool and
calm debate. Enemies they were in
war, and enemies they continue 'to
be in peace. In war we drew the
sword and bade them defiance, in
peace we gather up the manhood of
the south, and raising the banner of
constitutional equality, and gather
ing around it the good men of the
north as well as the south, we hurl
into their teeth to day the same del
ance, and bid Ahem come on to the
struggle. We are ready for it if you
are.
The Louisville Journal says:
"The white Radicals will be split

to die for it we will get even with
them. They have brought.ruin upon
us. They have proscribed us. They
are hunting us down daily. Now if
they push us to the wall, and foros
us to fight in self defence, we mean
to put our first bullet into• their own
wicked hearts."
A. Texas Journal , says:
"The, result of the war settled one
point and nu more. It settled and
conclusively established the fact that
eleven southern States could be whip

ern States.,
General Battle, of Mobile says:
"Comrades, brothers, year after
year you bore the confederate flag
through fire and tempest, and upon
more than two hundred battle-fields
covered it with glory. The fortitude
of the south in the midst of her deso

SCHUYLER COLFAX—AN INCIDENT.—
There is an incident inAhe life of
Schuyler Colfax which will be 'view

June 21, 186,6; Mr. CoNei; delivered,
a remarkable address on tke " Bogse
Laws of !Nebraska," which was a
w0r4 . 1-for-word quotation, clause after
clause, of the infamous cede of that
territory, with explanations of its
operations. 'One clause in, this mon
strous system of laws declared it to
be " illegal for any person to say
that it was wrong to hold slaves,"
and subjects that offence to the
al
penalty, of w aring a ball " a ball
and chain to the ankle." To give
point to his is tech, Mr. Colfax pro

dated from hi desk one of the regu

Eternal vigilance has been _well said

In this the eons of Bradford coun

which to display their patriotism and
love of country. From her hills and
valleys hundreds went forth, not to
secure personal ease' or comfort, foi
those were not found in camp or on

And the nation does live, and if the

presented.to a true freeman is, to see .
in the New York Uonvention men
set down- side by side with those who
were the inhuman' butchers of men
in cold' blood, like the rebel Forrest
of Tennessee, and others ; and-those
who starved our brave sons in rebel
prisons; like Wade Hampton of South
Carolina, and others, and proceed to
nominate a man for the office of
President of the United States, who
during the war, threw every obsta
cle in the way of our success, and
yet this is the met. • Men from Penn
sylvania, Judge Woodward, and oth
ers, shook hands . in the New York
Convention with those whose
ments were yet stained with blood
shed by Union men in defense of thia
nation, and there nominated Horatio
Seymour, the vilifier and traducer of
the pure-minded &nom, and the
apologist of such men as Wilkes
Booth, the assassin, Jeff Davis, the .
arch • traitor, Hebert Toombs, who
boasted he -would yet call the roll of
his slaves on Bunker Hill,. Henry A.
Wise, who yet boasts that secession
is not dead, Beauregard, who was in
favor of hoisting the blag flag. of the
pirate, and Semmes the pirate of the
Confederate States, who prowled the
seas burning Ameripan merchantmen
and hanging our seamen at the yard
arm. And this is the class of men
we are called upon to pla c e at the
head of -this government by our
votes. Were they traitors ? Yes.
Are they any less so to-day? No.
Then why trust them with power?
Will they use it to spread abroad
the holy principlee of Liberty ? No
'one believes it. Then why give
them power? Do we want another
civil war ? Does Pennsylvania want
to pay out her millions of dollars in
another civil war to maintain the
National honor ? Do we Pennsylva

Do we want a fresh exhibition of

widows and orphans around our fire
sides anew, as the result of another
rebellion ? i If we want all these we
can easily secure them by giving
southern traitors, headed by that foe

of this .nation. • •
Bat if wo want. to save all these
horrors from being again enacted,
and keep our beloved •country for

.Two years ago 'the writer' of the
following letter, Ron.. George M.
Weston, of Bangor Maine, was! the
Democratio-candiato for Congress in.
the fourth district of that State. The
writerhas been and still is opposed
to the reconstruction policy of Cong.!
ream, nevertheless he is e vi dently art
honest and sensible man; as are many
of -the members of that piety, not
' withstanding the treason and mad
ness of the leaders. The letter wan
written to a friend' in North Caroli
na, and the.eztract below Was very
properly published for the' considers
don of the people down there. s. We
commend ft to the calm ~ .nsideration
of honest, reflecting I °crate by
here. It is • jiiit such document as
Republicana can use with goodefieet
in'their friendly discussions of the
great issue now pending with their
Democratic friends and neighbors:
"This reconstruction policy -of
Congrese, strenuously as I refuted it,
and obncixio.tuf as it is to you, is an
accomplished tact. The effects of it
may be modified by events, and the
pokey may be softened; with thegrad
nal; subsidence, of the passions con
nected with the late struggle, but.
overthrown it cannot be, except . by
revolution and another civil war,
and the issues of the pending Pleat
' dential canvas are so made up_ as to
I present , tho question, necessarily
overshadowing all others, whether
the country is ready for so deeper
ate an attempt se that, for any grev-1
angel which exist."
Mr. , Weston then quotes. from
}tulles • Broadhead letter and Wade
:Ilainpten'a explanations, of the man
ner in which the resolutions at New
York were made to declare the re
construction acts 'revolutionary, un
constitutional, 'nun and 'void," and
"The assumption the Dimocrat
ie platform that the reconstruction
acts are''nUlZ and void,' has no shad
, dow of fact or law to rest upon.
"Congress may not have exercised
power wisely, but their rightful au
thority in the premises is clear and
unquestionable, -and those who de
nounce their acts as 'null and void,'
and .counsel revolutionary resistance
to them, ate either thoughtless per
sons who know not what they do, or '
bold and bail men; fatally bent on
mischief. It is not in this second
civil war, into which Mr. Blair and
the-Democratic platform seek to en
tice them, that the Southern States
will find a remedy for the evils which
-they stiffer. White emigration
from _Eniope and the North -which
peace and/quiet will invite, the high

as compared. with blicki, the dimuni

from deaths, and the -early re m oval
of disfranchisements which is assur
ed-by such movements as we have
just' bad reported from the Legisla
ture of Georgia will before long
,change 'the whole face of affairs. Fhe
antagonism of races will itself cease,
when political contests cease to turn
upon issues connected with the rein,-
tive rights of races. . The policy- of
Mr. Blair, on the other hand, tends
directly and inevitably to band and
c-thsolidatethe blacks into a phalanx
impenetrable upon every front. I see
,'
unredeemed mischief in it, in all its
aspects. The flag with which he
marches at the head of the Demo-
cratic column Is the blick flag of dis
cord and civil war for the country )
and of a war of races for the South.
The mass if his misguided , followers
are honest and .well intentioned, but
it is none the less true that he is
leading them in a broad and straight
road to ruin.
"My hope is that, the sober and dis
creet men of the South, whose coun
sels, like yotrfs; would have saved it
from the late. war, will now avail to
save it from this infinitely worse
war, at once internal and external,
portended by a new revolution, not
so much originating i 5 your section .
where the justifying grievances are
alleged to exist, as instigated by po-.
I i t, i c a 1 calculation elsewhere—a
strange revolution, indeed, in behalf
of . Southern rights,. in whick, the
warmest men are 'the men of the
North, who are seeking, not the -re
dress of wrongs, but the gratification
of their lust of power, at the hazard
of the ruin of the country?'
This gentleman's views of the issue
ai3 presented in the New Yorkplatform
in the letters of Blair and the speech
es 2. of Hampton and other leading
members of that Convention, coincide
precisely with our own as repeatedly
expressed in these columns. Well
and ;truly does Mr. Weston say—
' speaking of Frank Blair, who is the
nominee and representative of, the
rebel wing of the party, and . the
most- potential—" The flag with which
be marches at , the head of the Demo
_credo column is the idack flag of die
cord and civil war firr the country,
and a war of races for the South.
The mass of his misguidedfollowers

lecting to compliment Morton and
me ? He Tod, I never
thanked Mrs. Lincoln.foe a cup of tea

The truth was, Morton and had
done nothing more than what was
expected of us, while Seymour had.
He had never done the like before
and never , did afterward. It was not
necessary to kei,p a - Major•General
in Whips and Illinois and Ohio, to
correspond with the President,- as it
was in New York.. In those _States
the Governors acted AS the President's
correspondents and agents. You
will remember that remarkable dis
patch of Gen. Dix to Seytuour,saying
"I beg to let you know that I have
troops enough at my command to'
take care, not only of the rioters, but

family well. My mother had the_
teaching and training of old Jesse
Grant. He came to live"with' my
mother at 12 or 14 years d. When
ette thought he was old enough she
advised him to go. and learn a trade.
He took her advice. She wanted me
to learn a trade too, but unfortun
ately I turned" my attention to the
law, and•though I have made a toter.-
ably fair lawyer, I have no doubt I
would have made a better blacksmith.
That is the trade my mother wanted
me to . learn. I am , well acquainted
with Gen. Grant. • He possessed
every element of character which
should attach yOn to him. Ido nat
speak of his claims as a military man,
but, we; may all be certain of one
thing ; an ordinary" man would never
have achieved what he did. Nervuna
men like Gov. Seymour and , ,myself
would ha. l / 4 , e abandoned Vickisburg,
and in fact several abet plawirthat

never gets tired. And. of all-men in

Preserving Green Corn for Winter.
The canning of corn in families so
generally' , fails that we cannot recom
mend the trial. The next best thing
to canned corn is that which is prop
erly dried. The first essential is good
corn, and the nett is to dry it care
fully before it gets too old. Mrs. M
L. Gage, of Ross county Ohio, com
municates the following' sensible
ideas about. preparing it:
"It is a wonder that" so few should
have any. thing but field corn, for
table use; and for drying there is still
a greater contrast between the com
mon field corn and the. garden ;rade
tie& I h ive been used for years to
drying corn. Boil the green ears for
a minute or two, just to harden the
milk, then cut from the cob, and
spread on a cloth in the sun for two
days,Aalting it in at - night; it will
then keep anywhere. When - cooked
it is better to soak it a few_hours, and
boil in the same water. In cold -
weather all that is wanted for • a
week or two may be wet. ' It cooks
quicker and tastes better. A little.
milk and flour boiled in is almost as
good as cream. I have - not given up
drying corn, but:for two years past I
have put 8 - ome down in salt, which
gives another variety, and is more -
quickly prepared: At first Lhad dif
ficulty in freshening it, and then it
was comparatively tasteless, but'
"'7low -. 1 boil : the corn in one water a
minute or tirsi _turn the wafer off, add -
a few sliced potatoes, boil until they
are - done, drain off the water,_ and
add cream or butter. We thik this
preparation tastes more like summer
corn than the dried corn does, In sal
ting I cut the greencorn without boi
ling and pack it, alternating one pint-. _
of corn ands small handful of salt.
When the vessel is about full-put on -
a.cover_ that will fit down to the corn .
and place a small weight on it, as it
must be kept under the brine which
it makes from its own juice. I have,
for the past two years been canning
green corn with tomatoes. I use
about one fourth part corn, cooking
the two together. I have never heard
of but one case wnere green corn
canned by itself did not spoil, but
corn and . tomatoes canned together is
a perfect success."—Ant. Agrteu/lur-
