Sunday Morning, Mnroh 31. 1867. 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 terms or scBscawTicm.

These we propose to sell at the unlortunale, perhaps, than tho political chaotic ' " " lh f - - - ■ 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 h is best tor the North is most truly best for ulh. What wo want is harmony, and a ingling of kindness which shall melt preju- tnd dispel ignorance. Tho Nortii is not cMlwr.-ia la may be a great deal more peaceable any other Southern State, but I do uot kuow it should be so, uor do I believe it is so to great extent, and yet I have resided a year - w lien the papers had that State, and all rs Soutli, in a condition no Northern man d safely live there—traveling over the Stato -st constantly, and have not seen tlie first encc of disorder—not even n street tight, tar as Atlanta is concerned, I can speak personal knowledge. No partiality is 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 estment at the South, and it is money and y money, that can restore tlie South, and ch is to be hoped towards a better feeling, and tter acquaintance between the two sections tlie tact ot tlie great want ot money by tlie th, and the opportunities for Northern capi- 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 id back for a settlement of this great question posite cast beiDg designed entirely lor Northern taste and Northern ideas (and they aro quite different just at present) are never read by tho Southern people,‘any more than the New $ork News and World aro by the Northern (which is only human nature.) Even the constitutional amendment I never found, even among the loast prejudiced, a man at tho South who beliovod if accepted would be 'iVfepm#; 4H wmWpi’ t «hirrm.*trDmVnrsai suffrage, then confiscation of property will he usked.
