One and inseparable.
J’lte north is learning, and
will have thoroughly learned by
the time the war cloud has pas¬
sed, that the south is just as
mu h a part of the great repub¬
lic for all purposes whatsoever
as the north, and that the lat¬
ter section lias absolutely no
ground upon which to claim
patriotism than the for¬
mer.—Savannah (Ga.) News.
No, we do not need to learn
that, for we knew it a longtime
AgO. And everybody in the
north knows it, and everybody
in the south ought to know that
in the north knows
it.
There never was a time in
the history of our country when
north and smith were as closely
interwoven by common inter

soon got so mixed together that
the southern part of a northern
man and the northern part of a
man became welded
a patriotic whole.
The claim to superiorly by

Mr. Editor: While caring lit¬

backalley attacks of those whom
I have conscientiously (and of¬
ten with more real than good
judgement) helped in many |
ways, I am never unmindful of
any word of kind approval;

thanks to “Josh” for his pleas

healthful town have been mix¬
ed with not one grain of malice
towards anyone but purely for
the good of all. If I have been
wrong I will be glad to have the
people change the law and have
all the hogs they desire iu any
and every portion of tiie town.
I had no hand in making the
present law—I helped to bring
it into chairman force—and of so long as I j j

times while working as a Journ¬

forts to build up and improve
our little city, and to-day. there
is not one soul within its limits
against whom there is one par
