That 1
In the Atlanta New Era of the
.
appeared the following extract of a ,
vate letter, dated at Washington, Dec.
5ih, which the Editor states was written
to to him linn bv I3J a a prominent prominent leader icauei of u urn
Republican party. The Era
it with remarks which, if not common
datory of its sentiments, certainly shows
no hostility to them. We are, there¬
fore, justified in stating that tile views
of the writer meet the approval of the
Editor of the Era. The writer says :
* * * “If I know my own
heart, I have never indulged a single
unkind feeling toward the Southern
people, and if they would only realize
that I am but a type of others at this
political centre, who stand ready to
assist in the true development of the
South, they would reap incalculable
prosperity and peace. Nothing is surer
to my mind than that reconstruction
cannot he defeated. It will be delayed,
but it will triumph, and when Congress
is convinced that the South accepts the
situation, then will begin a reign of
genuine liberality and magnanimity.”
Tiie Editor of the Era, )says tiie Au
gusta Chronicle,) is said to be a South¬
ern man. He makes great pretensions
of Southern feeling and sympathy. He
boasts of his war record, and claims to
have been among “the truest of those
to Die manner-born” in the late civil
war. lie pretends to edit a. journal in
the cause of Southern rights and hon¬
ors and begs the support of Southern
men in sustaining his paper. Ho sets
himself up as a Sir Oracle of Southern
tone and feeling, and proclaims, in a
loud voice, his devotion to Southern
interests. He assumes to be a true ex¬
ponent of the views of those whom he
calls the moderate and liberal men of
the South. He makes his bread out of
tiie contributions (forced though they
be by order of Gen. Pope) of the peo¬
ple of Georgia, in . whose midst he has
recently settled with the ostensible pur¬
pose of making it Jiis permanent abode.
And yet this man approvingly publish¬
es from his private correspondence the
declaration.' that reconstruction under
Die Military Bills will, though delayed,
be finally forced, upon our people, and
that until this foul plot is fully consum¬
mated, there can be no genuine liberal
iiy or magnanimity extended to Die
suffering and oppressed people of this
section aud State.
Turn we now to another picture.
The editor of the Savannah Republi¬
can is a Northern man, and was, if we
mistake not, a soldier in file Federal
army, who fought through the entire
conflict, from its beginning to its close,
in deft nee of what lie believed to be- a
just cause. Since bis residence in this
Slate lie has been tried aud convicted in
one of our State courts for libel and in¬
carcerated for several weeks in the
county jail of Chatham county. We
do not pretend to say whether ids con¬
viction was light or wrong. It is sufti
eient to know that it is asking too much
of human nature to require that, under
such circumstances, the convicted party
should feel much attachment either lor
the people of the Jaws by which he was
prosecuted aud punished.
In the Republican, of the 12th inst.,
wc find the following remarks, drawn
from it by the publication in the Era of
the extract which we have just given.
We desire to cal! the attention of our
leaders to the marked difference in the
feelings and principles of the two pa¬
pers as indicated by these extracts from
each. The Republican says :
There are hundreds of thousands of
Conservative Republicans in tbe North
who not only “stand ready to assist in
the true development of the South,” but
who are also determined, if we read the
political signs rigidly, to i nsist by every
possible means the attempt of fanatical
demagogues and corrupt polilicians to
add fresh fuel to the flames of sectional¬
ism by humiliating the Southern people
with Die worst kind of punishment that
can he inflicted upon any community or
nation—the overthrow of virtue and in¬
telligence to enthrone vice and igno¬
rance.
* * * * ■st- -*
But the Southern people very justly
exclaim, “it is all very well for the Re
publican and scores of Northern people
to write these pleasing sentences, and
soleraniy assure us that they and are h ue
in every sense of tiie word, that
tiie Conservative Republicans and
Democrats in the North earnestly de
sire the South to be restored to its polit
ical rights in tho Union, and to reap
incalculable prosperity and peace,” but
does it not sound like mockery to prate
of the South “reaping incalculable pros
polity and peace” while we have in
Universal Suffrage all tiie evil elements
that such a monstrous and destructive
doctrine can thrust upon the Southern
people? It is madness to suppose that
the white race, either North or South,
will ever willingly consent to endorse a
party or policy which proposes to make
culture and intelligence a barrier, and
qot a qualification and virtue requisite
for the exercise of tbe privilege of suf
frage, for we do not tor one moment
concede it to lie anything more—it is
I not a right. Now we hope our Repub
lican friends at the North will
I ly eomprehend us, when we reiterate a
I stubborn fact that ought long since to
j have become palpalabie to their senses,
i i ani versal * that Suffrage is, that will the opposition to The
never cease.
| Government may hold the sword of
Damocles over the heads of the
crn P e0 P lc . and impose the
' terms wi,h which il lms ,he 1)0 wcr to
i demand and enforce compliance,
' the conflict against the odious measure
of Universal Suffrage will still rage in
their hearts, and the peace and
: -ill which may possibly be attained,
w be only as lasting asa bubble. No
sensible Southern man attempts to deny
‘qjiat reconstruction cannot be defeat
ed,” nor do they desire to defeat it,
provided they can escape the terrible
p Un j s [jroent and fresh .disgrace
Thaddeus Stevens and Wendell
lips are struggling to heap upon them,
It does not follow that simply
a Georgian in his native State will
humbly bow to the Gesler cap of
versal Suffrage, lliat he is necessarily
striving or anxious to defeat reconstruc
lion Nor can we believe it is right or
just that the intelligent citizen ot Mas
sachusetts, who insists upon restricting
Ifel^^tTould^h^doVts tiouai test, should iwmanuod aj a a tiai' trat
tor or accused 01 being opposed to
reconstruction. We claim that both
conclusions si e unwarranted, and admit
of argument. 1 ho Southern people,
as well as the respectable Northern men
who have settled in the South for lion
orable purposes, and with the intention
of becoming good, law-abiding citizens,
will we are glad to.know standIshoul
der to shoulder to defeat, if possible tins
iniquitous measure. It is a cruel in
fnngement upon one ot the most sacred
rights vouchsafed to the bovereign
Stales ot our Union by the Constitution
—a flagrant violation of the pledge
made under the apple tree at Appomat¬
tox boro by by Ulyses William S. Grant, and at Greens¬
Tecumseh Sherman.
It is a compact that was not “nomi¬
nated in 1 he bond,” and we will fight
ils enforcement in our adopted State
as vigorously and as conscientiously
as we should feel justified in doing it
did in our native State of President Massachusetts,
Congress or the seek
to trample under foot in the
same merciless manner the in he
rent rights of the people of the “Old
Bay State.” The writer says Recon¬
struction will “be delayed, but it will
triumph, and when Congress is convinc¬
ed that Die South accepts the situation,
then will begin a reign of genuine liber¬
ality and magnanimity !” Shame on
the man or party, we care not who they
are, that is so lost to all sense of man¬
hood and patriotism as to enlist under
the Hag that bears this ignomiuious and
humiliating candid confession. Here we have
a admission that “a reign of
genuine liberality and magnanimity”
will not begin until the Southern peo¬
ple debase themselves by cheerfully ac¬
cepting the same heinous and perilous
proposition that was so vehemently re¬
pudiated by the Northern people, and
spurned by the wisest leaders of the
Republican party in the North in tiie
recent elections. We have always con¬
sidered it a species of barbarism to in¬
sult a fallen foe, and if this is not an in¬
sult and opening “the Pandora box of
contumely” upon the heads of the
Southern people, and all others who op¬
pose universal suffrage, then we do not
know the meaning of the word.
We have very solemnly been told that
to oppose the universal suffrage, confis¬
cation, disfranchisement, and a)] other
illegal schemes looking to negro supre¬
macy, could be construed as to place
us in the same category with those who
are endeavoring to defeat reconstruc¬
tion, and that we therefore subject our¬
selves to “be regarded as a rebel sym¬
pathiser.” We accept the title and are
proud of it, if opposition to these meas¬
ures entitle us to it. Our so-called rebel
sympathy goes this far, and it is reveal¬
ed in this sentence. We believe it to
be a crime, and one of the worst kind,
for a man or party to boast that they
will not begin a “reign of genuine liber¬
ality and magnanimity” toward a fal¬
len and defeated foe until the latter
agree to accede to whatever demands
they may impose. We insist that the
“reign of genuine liberality and mag¬
nanimity,” such as we believe the Con¬
stitutional Amendment offered, should
have commenced Jong ago, and have
lasted until the dew of meicy bad entire¬
ly obliterated these stains of fratricidal
strife that linger to blot our national
escutcheon. Here the writer confesses
that the ear of reason will be deaf with
prejudice until passion and revenge
work out their bitter fruits. Who that
has closely watched the career nt t he
South does not know'that it is—
“This sickness doth infect,
The very life-blood ot our enterprise r’
We are convinced that the S 011 II 1 will
not accept the situation as it now pro
sentsitself under any circumstances;
and we believe, top, no earthly power
can change their hostility to Universal
Suffrage. Grant Impartial Suffrage and
we shall have real peace, but. not before.
In the meantime lo those irrational
and unjust people in ihc North, who
colored deny the intelligent and industrious
and clamor man the privilege of voting,
to poison the Houjli witli
Universal Suffrage, wc’commend Shake
spear’s lines:
‘ A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
We bid be quiet when we hear it cry ;
Ibit. were wo hurthon’cl with like weight of
much pain,
As more wo should o .rselves com¬
plain.”
A WHITE 1»ARTY.
The of following letter was written by
one the wise men of Gotham. It
evidently embodied a leading idea of
the Conservative masses of the North
and West, who can no longer tolerate
Radical usurpations, and who aie de¬
termined that tiie attempt to Africanize
the South shall fail. Whether the sug
jfestions made be acted upon or not is a
question which our people must deter
mine for themselves, but it is clear tiiat
if the South is to take part in the nomi
nation of a candidate for tbe high office
of President of the United Slates, that
its people should previously organize
and take counsel together :
a Convention of White People in the
Interest of llie White Knee,
To the Editor of the New Orleans
Times :—Tbe exigencies of the Southern
condition demand immediate attention,
Every consideration connected with
the future public welfare suggests
prompt and instant action. Impovish
| ed, political, disfranchised, tlreir whole system—
| financial and social—uprooted
and trampled under foot; theirjndici
J ary destroyed and lawlessness and
chaos instituted in its stead, tiie South
ern whites present a melancholy picture
of desolation aud wretchedness without
parallel in the history of tiie world,
No people of the Caucassian raee ever
before have been subject to like misery
and degradation.
Can anything be done to improve
their condition? is the question on
every lip. Theiuquirycomesatanap
posite time. It comes as the hitherto
blackened political horizon is lifting
! and becoming bright. It comes at a
time when the merciless party at whose
hands the Southern white people hav6
received these cruel wrongs is sounding
a retreat before the advancing legions
of what we hope will prove an aveng
. ing Nemesis. It comes at a time when
j the reader of the future has only to cast
his vision skyward to see the promise
| , of brighter and better davs.
Pardon a member of that great organ
ieation in the North through whose
agency this relief to the Southern whites
is to come in making them a suggestion
in their interest.
It is earnestly hoped that the white
race in each Southern State will no
longer.lose a moment’s time in
ing an immediate and complete
j ration. Let a Convention be at once
called in each State, ot
0 f the white race, without distinction
aR t0 past party nfflilialions or political
opinions on national policy. Let this
Convention be composed of able iucli
dons, wise, pure men. Let them meet
the interest of:the white race, to con
fer and counsel together as to what is
best to he done to promote its welfare
Let the*m pass in review of the recent
proceedings and determine in their respective States
on some uniform policy
j n respect to them Let them annoint
suitable delegates to confer in national
council with that party which cliarn
p ; 0DS the rights of white people on the
American continent, and which seeks
n restoration of the constitution and
Union of 1789. Let Louisiana take the
lead in this matter and blaze the way
for her sisters in affliction.
A Northern Democrat.
A few years ago, in a village in Ches¬
ter Presbyterians county, Penn., the Methodist and
each built a church about
the same time. Soon a rivalry arose
between them, especially among the
juvenile portion of the congregations.
On one occasion the Methodist party
got (ho best of an argument in this way:
“Ah 1 I guess we beat you now.”
“How ?” “Why, we’ve got six buried
in our graveyard, and you’ve only four;
and there’s old Mr. Cooper is going to
die soon, and He’ll make seven.”
An old minister, while one day pur¬
suing his studies, was suddenly inter¬
rupted by his wife asking him the ques¬
tion-one which has puzzled the oldest
divines—“Do you think we shall know
each other in heaven ?” Without, a
moment’s hesitation lie replied: “To
be sure we shall. Do you think we
shall be greater fools there (ban we are
here ?”

Gents—-I am well pleased with the result of
the uso ol the ‘Doubt,' Refined Poudrette ,’ ou my
crops. 1 tried it on both corn anil cotton, and
am satisfied wherever it was applied the yield
was more than double than it would have been
without. 1 regret exceedingly my nor, using it
more extensively the present year, but will
try to make up my loss by purchasing a larger
quantity next spring. 1 regard it as the cheap¬
est, most reUamo , and easiest managed cheerluliy fertil¬
izer within my knowledge, and re¬
commend it (as 1 have tried it thoroughly) to
the farmers of this section, and particularly to
those planting Cotton, from tho Diet nt its
causing it, to mature from ten days to two
weeks earlier than It would without tho use of
tho Poudrette. I also used it, on my garden,
and found It <d much benefit to all kinds of
plants. Very respoctlaliy,

Sir—In reply to your Inquiry of the results
of our experience in the use of your improved
Poudrette, purchased of you for this year’s
COTTON CROP, we would beg leave to say
that the present season has been one quite un¬
favorable to the action of all fertilizers.
Several kinds of manures were used by us, with
the exception of your Poudrette, with little or no
effect to the crop.
Where the Pomlreltc was used ft
tfHve us near half a bale more per
acre, and caused the Cotton to open
much earlier, and we would therefore re¬
commend the same as a concentrated manure
for tho growth of Cotton, n« well as improve
mentto the soil.
Yours very respectfully,
