TANARUS, lepra pit,
The London Telegraph is published on
(lit* other side of the great waters, and all
it kn ws ol American matters, is what it
cull- from Northern papers. Europeans,
no doubt, tlii'ik the North has shown great
eh no ncy toward -he South, because they
have not hanged every one of tt“, as Maro
peaus would have done, and as the Radi
cals of the North i impose to do. Rut
what clemency have wo experienced?
True, they have spared our lives; but so
distasteful to them was such mercy, that
they have oppressed, annoyed, and lrumili
sled us iu every other manner they could
invent. The •* unparalleled tplendor of a
whole nation’s clemency,” is to be found in
the following acts :
Fust —The abolition of slavery without
compensation, in which the South
ern people were shipped of tlirec
fourth* of all their wealth.
Srconl —For attempting to defend their
property, they sull’ red a four
years war of desolation, destruc
tion anil death.
Third —!\ lien finally defeated, they were
declared rebels and traitors, and i
deprived of their et\il rights.
Fourth —To allay the cowardly fears and
gratiiy the fanatic hate of a North
ern clique, the si ves of the South
. e n people were made their mas
ters, and placed over them as sol
diers, to humiliate and make them
feel, the bitterness of their ene
mies revenge.
Fisth —The cowardly tears of the Radicals
are now passing measures in Con
gress to keep the South oilt of the
Union, les; they should meet again !
face to face, in the halls of Lon ‘
gress, those brave Southerners
they Jared not meet in t e.field.

Senator Saulsbury declared, in a
speech against the bill, that it will cost
8250,000,000 to carry it out. It will
involve a large increase of the military
‘establishment. It is.entirely hostile
so the wiser policy of General Gurut,

bill the two powers, military and civil,
acting in c ueert, or independently, as
it may happen, can be used to oppress

The sth section extends the posses
sing title of the negroes to the Sea Is

At the end of that time they will un
