' Cjje §ailD Jfrrss. City Printer —Official Paper LAMEST CITY CIRCULATION A. UOT’STA. OA. SUNDAY MORNING ....May J*. I*«T A Reconstruction Dialogue- We here * friend who is what may be called an unreconstructed rebel, and it proud of it- He has n ° inclination to fight any longer— indeed, if onr memo ry aerrea us his battle* were all battle* of the Kegs, in the Commissary de partment—but he can't consent, as he terms it, to humiliating himself by voting for a Convention that is to affix the great wrong embraced in the Military Bill upon the people of his State ; and he avers most earnestly that lie will stand off, with Gor. Perry, and have nothing to do with it- We had a brief conver sation with him on yesterday, which, as it is but a type of many colloquies now taking place between the friends and opponents of reconstruction, we append it, presuming upon the intimate rela. lions between us, as an apology for re porting a private conversation. Editor— Well, neighbor, how goes the work of reconstruction? A—Going to the d—l. The people were so wedded to Lee, Longstreet, and their old military leaders, that they can’t resist following their advice, though they know nothing about politics. But m never follow them. I’ll never disgrace myself, by accepting the Mili tary Bill. Ed—Well neighbor, if you'll pardon the joke, you never did follow them long and then yon were at a.safe distance. But the boys at the front, who followed them through four years of blood, are willing to trust them, and like them, wish the country restored to a condition of peace. A—what do they know about politics ? What right have they to disgrace me f Ed—They did not feel disgraced when Lee surrendered to Grant, and they do not feel disgraced now in complying with the terms of the war-waging and peace-making power. If you feel dis graced, you can leave the country. A—l've the same right in the country that they or you have, (becoming a little warm) and I expect to stay here. Ed—ls you stay here, you are bound to yield to the majority, and obey the laws. Indeed, no man has a right to claim the protection of a government which he refuses to obey. A—Oh, I'll obey the laws, but I’ll have nothing to do with making them. I’ll never vote —I'll wait, with Gov. Perry, and let the cursed Radicals do their worst. Ed—What do you expect to gain by waiting ? A—We'll gain a reaction at the North, and then this bill will be repealed. Ed—But you Forget that no reaction at the North can affect the present Con gress, which is elected for two years, and before that time the States will be reconstructed. A—But we’ll defeat the Convention, and stay under military rule. I’d rather stay under it till Gabriel blows his trumpet than to take that bill. Ed—But, neighbor, just now you were not going to vote at all ! Well, sup pose you vote, and enough vote with you to defeat the Convention, what then ? A—Then we will go on as we are, until the people of the North come to their senses, and elect another Con gress which will do us justice. Ed—But suppose the present Con gress, at its next session, finding that the votes in all the States have been “no Convention,” concludes that the Military bill shall be adopted, and passes an amendment declaring that no man who was in the Southern army, or who sympathized with secession, and who cannot take the test oath, shall vote, and orders anew election ? Don’t you see that then the negroes (who wiii all vote for the Convention because it is to confirm their right to vote)—and the per se Unionists, will call a Convention, and control it. A—Well, let ’em call it. If it is to be held, it matters not who holds it— I’ll have nothing to do with it. Ed—Pardon me—bat don’t you see, that if all who can vote under the bill unite, they can control the Convention, and send delegates to it who, while they are Union men, are Georgians, and will do nothing harsh or ungenerous toward those who participated in the war ? A—Don’t talk to me about harsh or ungenerous—any man who can get into the Convention must take the test oath, and and a man who can take that. Ed—But, neighbor, a great many men can be found who can take it, who though not perhaps before known as leaders, are honest and true to the inter est and honor of the State. A (getting angry)—Don’t talk to me about honor, with a man who stood by the Union while we were engaged in war, and I was Ed—Speculating in sugar, and feed ing the boys on tough beef, eh, neighbor ? A‘—lf we were not good friends, I would not stand such insinuations. Ed—And if we were not good friends, I would not make them—but really neighbor you sot so fair, I couldn’t help it.” A—Well, let by-gones be by-gones. Neither of us fought enough to hurt. Ed—True, but I am ready to accept the results of the fight. lam willing to let by-gones be by-gones—to accept the terms offered, and endeavor to get peace. I A—l wouldn’t mind accepting the infernal Military Bill ao much but there’s Wilton, and Bryant, and Kelly, and all that tribe in the saute line ; I can’t go the Radicals. Ed—Yon need not endorse them, or go with the Radicals. You can vote for a Convention who are not Radicals. That is the main reason why I urge you to register and vote. A—Well there’s Joe Brown—they say he's n Radical. Ed—Joe Brown’s speeches nowhere endorse the Radicals. On the contrary, he merely accepts the Military Bill, not a* wbat be would prefer, but as the best we can get. A—Well, the truth is, I can’t go Brown no how. He. helped to bring on the war—he seized— Ed—Your sugar 1 A—We agreed to let by gones alone. Ed—Well, Brown's old record is one of the by-gones, and has nothing to do with the present vital, paramount issue of reconciliation and peace. A—Well, 111 see—but I’m uot going to disgrace myself. So we parted—our friend to his store, whose door is scarcely darkened by a customer from morning ’till night, simply because of the distracted condi tion of the country —and we to our sanctum, to take notes of the conversa tion. Strike. But Hear. A few parties, jealous of the growing business of the Daii.y Press, and a few inconsiderate or bigoted persons, who are governed by passion and prejudice have busied their tongnes with the name of this paper as a Radical journal. We might afford to leave these tradneers to sink into the harmless obscurity to which they are hastening, did we not feel that on the way they are throwing clogs under the wheels of reconstruc tion, and involving the best interests of the country by their blind spite and fatuity. The Daily Press has never publish ed a line that committed it, or was calculated to commit its readers, to any political organization. And we chal lenge all carpers to point out a line in these columns which breathes a spirit false or offensive to the manly and just sentiments or sympathies of the people with whom we are identified. We have urged the acceptance of the Military bill, believing that it will be a finality to agitation, restore the State to its place in the Union, cause business to revive, save our people from severer measures, and end in the speedy removal of all disabilities attaching to a portion of our citizens. In doing this, we have maintained our own self-respect, and feel entitled to the respectful con sideration ot the public. We have no sympathy or identity with Loyal Leagues, or with any party machinery incident thereto- We hold those who are bespattering reconstructionists with abuse, as enemies to the public peace, and unworthy the confidence alike of' whites and blacks. We are for a prompt acceptance of the Sherman bill, believing it the best terms we can get, and bold all party plans and party interests subordinate to the first great work of restoration. Reliable Union Men- The odium attaching to those who opposed the war, and felt that their allegiance was first to the Union, and then to the State, was so great while the struggle was pending, that it is very difficult for those who sustained the war, and especially who were seces sionists, to accept them as custodians of the public interests. Almost daily harsh things are said of them, and the argument is used that in selecting men who can take the test oath, we must select men who are the worst of Radi cals, and who will join ill any sort ot oppressive legislation against seces sionists. We hold these conclusions injurious and unfortunate. We condemn Con' gress for putting disabilities on those who opposed its policy, and made war ; and yet are unwilling to trust those who were opposed to our policy, and were for peace and the Union. We must conquer our prejudices. While it is most true that many noble and pure men, whom the people have honored, and who are worthy still of honor and confidence, are temporarily disabled, that this class includes many of the brightest intellects in the South, it is also true that in almost every community there are sterling men to be found, who were consistent in their op position to the war. The truth is it required the coolest moral courage, aud most earnest devotion to principle to stand up against the will and the pas sion of the majority; and there is much in such qualities that may well challenge the respect and confidence of even se cessionists, however the principle to which they adhered at the time may have been condemned. The war has settled that issue by force, aud it is folly to attempt to keep alive the old memories aud old passions incident to it. We all belong to the same country now, and the same destiny is in store for our children. Therefore let the se cessionist and the unionist unite cor dially in the work of restoration—se lecting for office those who will do justice to men of all shades of opinion, aud of all colors. This is the only straight and safe road to substantial aud true reconstruction. An AtnaniiMvliun I’lot.
