When the ('wMMtt Sjales asserted -ittoir
»p( erate n/itiwrmlity it wns ocntcinlcd by the
advocates of colLolidation Unit the Federal
compact v»» imlis-oluUo, ami oonsequontly
the action <i the States ih seceding was a ntjl
-1 ty. This was the ground op which the war,
aga'ust ilte Southern States was justified be
fore tbe jieoplt"of'the North and West. The
avowed object of the war, which was wared
on the seceding section at an expense of blood
and treasure unprecedented in the annals of
civiliy-atioo, w*t> simply the maintenance of
this doctrine, and the continual appeals to the
people f«r the persecution of the government
as left us by our revolutionary fathers were
regarded by those whoso blood was shed so
freely-in crushing the South, as truly express
ing the object of the war. In evidence that
this was the understanding of the fighting men
of the North, it is only necessary to refer to
the terms agreed upon in the capitulation of
Leo and Johnson, in which Grant and Sher
man required nothing more than a return to
the Union.
Since the Confederate armies were disban
ded, ins'ead of complying w ith terms granted
by the victorious commanders, the leaders of
the party whose aggressions provokod the war
have changed their ground, and claim that the
subjugated section is to be regaided as ft for
eign conquest having no constitutional rights.
This is a brief statement of the situation of
affairs as they have stood since the surrender,
and on tho question where we now stand in
relation tothe federal government the matter
of reconstruction depends.
If tho terms of the surrender had been ful
filled on tbe part of the North, the whole
trouble would havo ended with the surrender
of the armed forces who roeisted the federal
authority. In that cn«e, however, the domi
nant party in tho North would have lost the
control of the government, and therefore, for
the sake of preserving their own power, they
refuse 1 to admit tho representatives from tho
seceding section into the national councils. In
carrying out this proscriptive system they have
adopted the plan of military governments now
in force iu tho conquered section. This mode
of administering the national authority is bor
rowed from the despotisms of the dark ages,
and those who inaugurated it acknowledge
that it is not authorized by tbo constitution.
But Congress itself has no power cxcopt by the
provisions of that sanio cofistitution which is
ignored by them in tbe establishment of these
petty despotisms. Therefore the tendency of
all legislation ignoring the authority of the
a institution, is toward anarchy.
But at present, the point on which our peo
ple want information is embraced in the ques
tion at the head of this article. If we nro in
the Union why arc wo subjected to military,
lute nn*l required to rciji-tfr before wo are
» and i.ari* lose State ore

are in tho the Union for Radical purposes can
are bo still out of it on all other occasions ?
indivuTuaiTindustry.
As the wholo community is involved in the
pecuniary ruin consequent upon the disastrous
war which to recently devastated our country,
the first object to bo attained is the restoration
or tbe private Interests of tbe people to their
former prosperous and thriving condition.—
Whatever policy may prevail in die admiuinf
tration of the -affairs of tho government the
great mass of the inhabitants cau. only hope
for the enjoyment of their accustomed easy aud
affluent circumstances as the result of their
own energetic efforts, lu the old days of gen
eral prosperity the-only chance for any one to
advance his personal Interests was by hi 6 own
energy. This is now the only hope of any one
for retrieving his fortune,.
At the first glance the circumstances which
have imposed this neee-rity on our people may
ocem to be Calamitous; but mature reflection
will Show that to our whole community tbe
result may be transformed into a very materi-,
al advantage. The inevitable tendency of con
tinued prosperity, such ns blessed our section
up to tbe time when hostilities were coimnen
eed, is to produce that luxurious indolence
which saps the foundations of material ad
vancement. N«w, tbo necessity for individual
effort to surmount the wavcß of desolation
which overspread our Lind will give a healthy
impetus to the public mind, and develop the
latent energies of our people. Then let no
man supinely grieve ever our lost advantages?
but rather let every ono strive by personal
efforts to retrieve bis individual losses, and
thereby the general welfare will he promoted.
So shall we demonstrate our claim to superior
civilization by turning our disasters into ma
terial advantage.

How many years since mellow Autumn brought
Thee, Iwith her ripened fruitage rich and
rare,
And blessed thee with an Autumn store of
thought.
That rivalled e’en iu her benuties large and

Large, in that thou understood’st ma ikind,
Oleuriy solved tho doubts that blotted life’s,
page,
Fair, since clear-eyed Truth host led thy mind
From pale-faced youth to honor’d middle age.
Yea.’mid. her fruits and days like olden wine
Filled with sunliglit that filtered through
the leaves,
Thou surely learn that charity of thins.
Which a shroud for the faults of others
weavos.
She blessed tliee too, with a heart of love,
Thut caught tho warmth and wealth of iter
own air,
When earth is {bright with sunshine from
above;
As thou warm’st our benrts with thy tender
care.
Long, long, may mellow autumn to thee bring
Ilcr purple fruits and thoughts like golden
rhyme.
That life may be forever a young spring.
And Mem’ry’s regret ne’er darken tliy glad

Ah, life has many joys to bless tliee still,
Though thy locks quiver with Time’s silver

And though the mad’ning storm rage on at

Long, long, may autumu bless her favored

And bless us with thy presence ever dear ;
Hot when thou thy last on earth bast smiled,

Wn.vT nxvK we Gained L—The Ohicygo
UtmVf, in noticing a late speech of Mr. Rich
ard his canvass, for Cw.gres? in Cin- |
wratie party get into power, we
Tlial 1 lose in pence-what we gained in war. So
says Smith. If this be true, it is proper to
etuint up our gains by the war. We have
gained an enormously high tariff, which taxes
the nation for the benefit of New F.nglund
manufacturers. We have gained an internal
revenue system, which taxes sixteen thousand
different articles, and requires an army of of
fice-holders for its enforcement. We have
grtlned a national banking system capable of
controlling the capital of tho country, to which
the people yearly pay $18,000,000 interest,
which might be saved by tbe substitution of
National curronoy for bank notes. We have
gained a debt of several thousands of millions
of dollars, which is a mortgage upon the prop
erty and labor of every man in the country.—
Wo hove gained a Congress and State Legis
latures so corrupt that the press of the same
party with them is compelled, from very shame,
to denounce their accessibility to bribery.—
Smith says these gains will be lost if the Dcm
oCratio party gets into power, Smith intended
to lie, hut he stumbled on the truth.

Serious Disturbance at Savannah.
One Aaron Bradley (mulatto) of Boston, who
ims been several times arrested by the military
and civil authorities for swindling negroes and
exciting disturbances, bad a gathering there on
the 30th, ult., of someone thousand negroes,
mostly from the country. In the course of his
harnngoo against the white men and in favor
of the distribution of lands, the Conservative
negroes interrupted him, when a melee occur
red. A large force of police charged through
the crowd. The military came to their aid,
and, together, cleared the square. The mus
kets brought in by a largo band of country
negroes were taken by the police and turned
over to the military. A large proportion of
the colored population disapprove of Bradley’s
conduct and threaten to assassinate him. The
tnt'nie cordiale between the city government
and military affords great satisfaction to all
classes except the ignorant adherents of Brad

Tn Humors or JtuiiSTftATiox, —The follow
ing extract from the letter of a correspondent
in Lexington, is interesting and amusing:
If the election was to come off now, there
would 1* a very largo majority of votes cast
1 against the holding of a Convention. The white
voters woyld lie nnunimous against a Canven
i flop, and. only the lew negroes that are “Reg
istering to get Land,” would he iu favor of a
Convention.

‘Vote for who ?’
Just any one you wish to vote for, if he is

‘Now, ronssa,’ said the old man, “I am not

Dm not Like the Widowers. —In endeav
oring to take the census for the Government,
the officers occasionally meet with such difficul
ties as to well nigh deprive them of their sen
ses. The following colloquy is said to have
taken place somewhere between an official and
nn Irish woman-;
‘TIow many male members have you in
your family?”
‘■Niver a one.”
‘'When were you married?”
‘‘The day Pat Doyle left Tipperary fur Amor
ikn. Ah. well I mind if- A sunshinieruav
niver gilded the sky of ould Ireland.”
“What was the condition of your husband
before marriage?”
“Divil a more miserable. He said if I didn’t
give him a promise within two weeks lie woald
blow his brains out with a crowbar.”
“Was be at the time of marriage a widower
or bachelor?” j
“A which 1 A widower did you say ? Ah,
now go away wid your nonsense. Is it (lie
likes of I*9 that would take up wid a secorid
hand husband ? Do I look like the wife of a
widower ? A poor devil all legs and consutrin
tion, like a turkey ! A widower! May IWe
blessed if I’d not rather live an ould maid aid
bring up a family on buttermilk and praties.”
Ben. Wade says “the proudest period olhis

A word to Saothera-Merchants.
We insert the following at the rcq*csf of
several of oar patrons:
beg tf> present, for your own eeWWdcrritiuf, a
few of the advantages which we think Ghu'-'es
tun possesses as a market to the Southern cr
chant. Wo assume it to be a fact that the
merchant living in Middle and North li'-irgia,
Eastern Alabama find Florida, the greater
portion of South Carolina, and a consider file
part, of North Carolina, can visit Gbarlc Von
three times in a season with no greater ex nn
iliture of time and money than he wouhUfi i.iir
in visiting New York once. This eoneedld.
tho following advantages naturally arise:
Ist. All things else being equal, tho nifr
chant who buys in Charleston three time! a
season, can do the same amount of business Vn
one-third (hecapital required by him who buys
Once a season in New York. Fur exampe:
snv that A and B are merchants of tho sntje
place : each requires $9,0(10 worth of poods 4r
liis fall and winter supply. A buys in N«y
York, nn the Ist Sept.', on a credit of fojr
months, $9,000 which will fall due on Ist Jan
uary.
B buys in Charleston, on Ist Sept., on a
credit of 4 months $8.0(0
On the Ist Nov., on a credit of 4 months, 3,0i1)
On the Ist Jan., on a credit of 4 months, 3,O(jD
B's first purchase falls due on the Ist Jai
uary, as does that of A, but it is only one thill
the amount.
B’s second purchase does not fall due until
March Ut, say two months later, and his thial
purchase until May Ist, or four months later,
lie thereby has the use of $6,000 for tvvb
months, and of $3,000 for two months longest
equal to the use of $9,000 for two months lun
ger than his neighbor, A, who bought in Ney
York. Or, in other words. B could buy al
many goods in a season and pay as promptly
having a capital of SI,OOO, as A could on*
capital of $3,000.
Or if B bought only twice in a season and X
once, B could do as mueh business on a capij
tal of $1,500 as A could on a capital of 3.00{,
It can be shown by a similar process of real
soning that the man who buys three times in
a season in Charleston, can pay fur his goods
in two nionthis with as much ease as he whi
buys in New York can pay for them in foui
months. Considering the scarcity of money
and high rates of interest at the South vvu
would ask whether, in this particular, he whu
buys in Charleston does not enjoy a great ad
vantage over him who buys in New York?
2d. Every merchant w ill acknowledge tin
benefit of frequent accession of fresh goods ti
his stock, and the great drawback it is to the
sale of even the best goods to have them be
come familiar to tire eyes of his customers and
clerks.
Another important advantage of Charleston
as n market for all within the geographical
limits stated, but especially for the less expe
rienced merchant, is, here ha mokes his pureha-|
ses from stocks already selected by persons ex
perienced in the wants of the southern people,
and with tho exercise of ordinary judgment
and prudence can hardly fail to buy a saleable
stock; whereas the merchant who goes to a
Northern market makes his selections from
stocks bought foT all parts of the country
and in the excitement of purchasing, increas
ed bv the example of other buyers, without
considering from what section they come, is li
able to buy unsaleable goods and too many of
them.
3d. The rapid decline in goods during the
past twelve months, by which so many lost the
earnings cf years, is a warning against being
found with a large stock on hand at any time.
Therefore the system of buying at a near mar
ket and often, rather than a distant one, and
in large quantities, will ernmend itself to the
prudent man of business, at least until values
become more settled.
Si’frEßiNO in the SouTn.—The suffering in

they are suffering for the absolute necessaries
of life, and can get no work with which to sup

They state that they have been receiving as

I ot.ly hope that I may hereafter,be able

I only know that heretofore, and, I be

is a crime and it shall not be made hon
orable. [Cheers.] Gentlemen, I thank
you.’’

with enthusiasm. After the excitement
subsided, Sheridan thanked them kindly,
when the members sung “Old John
