The Social Condition of the South.
Below wi(l Jio fotmtl another letter lrotn Mr.
.Tons Rick, of Atlanta, copied from the Doily
Wiivoiw'd, Milwaukee:
I know ot only four Northern houses doing
business in Atlanta. (All o( these are doin
well, and pleased with the placo and people.)
iVliate
is tho desire of the Southern people, whatever
the reports In the papers to tho contrary, to in
duce Northern men and Northern capital to
seek tho South. You may say they have a curi-
' * ’ “ Lot
ous way of showlug it. » . JH
of tho newspaper reports of hatred to
half
Northern men and!
capital
tvo a ct
me say to you ono
edition ot imj-rry li
ra- r greatly exaggerated, and tho other hall
without a shadow of loundatlon. I have seen,
while in Atlanta, articles in the Milwaukee TTw-
tonsin and Sentinel, copied from somo other pn-
dis-
pers, concerning brutality to negroes, and
ftnrl ■ ‘
turbanccs in Atlanta, which had not tho most
?rcmotc shadow of foundation. And the South
ern papers have columns of murders and brutal
ities In Chicago and Milwaukee, all attributed
by them to the present demoralized condition ol
the North. If all tho newspaper reports were
true, published in tho South of the North, and
nil tho reports published in the North ol the
South, (with all respect to you, friend Crnmer,)
we would want to remove to some cannibal is
lands lor protection. The country is in bad euough
condition. There is an entiro indifference
throughout the whole South to tho best interests
of tho government, and offentimes hatred manl
iest, and that I would strive to overcome; and
these papers on both sides seem to toko incfable
delight in falsely reporting the two sections into
a fighting attitude, and then rubbing their ears,
cst they do not get up a fight after all. There
tavo enough things occurred that aro true to
nakc the blood run cold, In tho veins of any
nan. There is Memphis, and there ia New Or-
eans, tho stains oi which can never be wiped I
tut from those citloa as loug as time remains.—
But let us not bo entirely uncharitable. Even
they have a shadow of excuse in being under the
reign of a maddened mob. Wo must not lorget
(yen once, yea, twice, our own fair city has been
lisgracethwith mobs, and even negroes have been
[ragged through the city, over pavoment and
ide walk, till lite was extinct, and then hung to
pile driver; and as far as I can remember, tho
K trpetrators, although well known to the public,
ere not brought to justico.
r We remember the treatment of our own citi-
Bellingcr, at New Lisbon, and the tragedy
New Ulm, so fresh in our remembrance,
arcely less barbarous than tho Indian massacre
the same place a lew years previous. These
> not iu any way justily New Orleans and
lemphls, but when wo think of them, and think
Dw our souls revolted against such horrors,
link there are thousands and tens of thousands
Southern men whose very souls abhor the
sdy scenes of Now Orleans and Memphis. If
aro ever to have permanent peace, both sec-
ns, South and North, have got to eelf-deny
mselvcs and their feelings to come into liar-
ny and effect it. It can never be done by
dying the coarse epithets that aro applied
often to the President of these United States,
r" and “drunkard" on tho part of the North,
“drunken Cougress” on the part of tho South,
must rise above these things. If tho people
e South could travel over the North, and
e into close acquaintance with the Northern
le unprejudiced, and tho people of the North
d travel over tho South in the same spirit,
know the Southern people, and then go
e and pass an amendment to the Conslitu-
, similar to tho effect ol one clause in tho
‘tilutionnl amendment, namely: disfrauchia-
all leading politicians, and then get Congress
ass au appropriation lor the permanent aup-
and retirement of all editors who prefer a

slate the South lias been left to plunge about in,
like a horse in the mire, for tiie last eighteen
mouths. They have never known what the
government required of them.
The government, satiatod with power over the
late rebel Slates, seemed to have got dyspeptic
and gouty, and only became awakened from
its lethargy by domestic conflict.
The South wont seriously into this matter of
rebellion. They went in with their eyes open
. Nev-
too. They knew tho odds against them,
ertheless they were serious enough to throw
everything into the scales—property, reputatiou,
life, everything, and appeal to the arbitrament
of the sword. We know how well they (ought.
They lost. The sword to which alone they ap
pealed decided against them. They know it and
expect prompt measures on the part of the gov
ernment. The battle cry all through tho war,
at home and in tho flold, was, “if we aro beaten
our property, our lives, our all aro gone." They
expected prompt measures on tho part of tho
government. But delay has bcou such, ad
ministration so unfortunate, tho peoplo of tho
South have honestly thought tho only real
business going on at Washington was the re
tention ol power and tho making of the next
President. Tho lew northern papers taken ut
tlie South like tho New York News and the New
York World told them “Congress was revolu
tionary und the President constitutional." If
the Supremo Court or the President remained in
tlie way of Congress they would be removed, as
au offensive dog would be kicked into tlie streot.
The Southern people in tlie abseuco of any other
of tho Northern papers of tho op-
papers, most i
be goue. Ignorance aud
dice is really pretty much all that separates
'orth and Soutli at this lime. There are
ital questions of difference to-day. That

ulh. What wo want is harmony, and a
ingling of kindness which shall melt preju-
tnd dispel ignorance. Tho Nortii is not

rs Soutli, in a condition no Northern man
d safely live there—traveling over the Stato

encc of disorder—not even n street tight,
tar as Atlanta is concerned, I can speak

a to Southern men in business circles. In
it is not seldom tlie case, Southern compe-
find fault with tlie trade becauso they pu-
Yankees rather than their own people,
tments pay at the Soutli two to ono wlnit
can bo made to pay at tlie Nortii, and will
years. Every kind of business is laid out
n the basis ol scarcity of money, and mar-
are made accordingly. On the basis busi-
is done there, money is cheaper at two per
t. per month than it is at the North on basis
t business is done here at ten per cent, per
um. Hcnco tho favorable opportunities for

wliicli will take tlie capitalist witli it.
arge as the proceeds ot tlie cotton crop is,
season, or may be in years to come, the
them people know through it alone, it will
i very slow process to build up what was dc-
ycd by tlie war. In fact, no sensible man
ads upon it at the Soutli. So Northern men
th capital arc not only welcome, but treated
th marked courtesy. Northern men without
pital are welcomed. Especially, skilled labor,
the Southern peoplo arc well aware of the
periority of Northern mechanics, and the ex-
sive enterprise ot Northern men generally.
Why, then, does not capital seek tho Soutli for
vestment and a larger emigration. It ia only

taste and Northern ideas (and they aro quite

interfering with the labors of the planters, both
in the preparation of their lands as well as post
