SOUTHERN OriNIOX. 11s

We cannot give more suggestive reading, this morning, than the following extracts showing the drift of political opinion in the South as manifested in leading articles published within a few days past in representative Southern Democratic journals."' vabii The assertion that any considerable ~i fiumber of the Southern Demociats re--j pudiate the extreme views that have been enunciated by Judge Linton Stephens, of Georgia, is vehemently denied by the

Mobile Register, which says it can see no renson why the reconstruction questions should not be an engrossing political topas they were the first four he a an it el it

Northern friends that "the Southern Democracy demand (this is the favorite word,) nothing more than the National Democracy conceded in the New York Convention of 1SGS, when, in its platform, it declared these reconstruction measures "Unconstitutional, revolutionary, null and void."

The Montgomery Advert iter does not wish its readers to understand that it advises an unworthy acceptance of, or submission to, the usurpative principles in which the reconstruction measures were conceived, but it thinks expediency may demand that the Demo^^tic Party should go into the next campaign without any written platform, and these acts and amendments "be accepted and treated as dead issues for the canvass." It savs: "If some constitutional amendments have been proposed and ratified, inconsistent with our liberties, others may surely be hereafter proposed and ratified, by which th« pristine purity and vigor of that instrument may be restored."

The Richmond Enquirer advises caution and prudence on the part of Virginia, suggesting that it may be her voice that will shape the policy to be pursued, and control the selection of the Democratic candidates. The Enquirer at the same time quotes approvingly from the Evening Post sentiments, which, it says, would do credit to the most conservative journal in the land, and commenting upon them says: "Here is a recognition, and a kindly one, of so much of State rights as the people at large of the Union are at present prepared to claim. More will be

A •Tfsirli 4

l),

claimed at a fitting litre, and at length the excrescences which have grown up under the abnormal stimulus of war, will one by one be pared away, until the Constitution in nearly its original simplicity will be reached." i* 'if'

Th.e Savannah itepublican, top, quotes what it thinks is sound doctrine fromlhe Evening Pod, aTid then asks: "But itip pose such a measure as Butler's bill should be passed and the Southern States should conclude to resist its execution ri ct armis, will the Post pledge itself to help us? We think ourselves," it continues, "that Rutlbr's Federal autocrat for every county would have a rough rw^a to travfcl, if he did not meet. Improvised Kuklnx at every corner, where they were never seen before but the South has learned one lesson from experience and that is, never to trust the North to help her in any' resistance to tyranny outside of the ballot-boy."

The Maeon (Ga.) Telegraph & Messenger says it cannot approve the apparent dia position on the part of the Savannah ^Tefas4the Augusta Chronicle ifiSentine\,aijd some other Georgia journals, to force an authoritative demand upon the Natioiial Democratic Convention from the -Sthle of Georgia, in the, paifnre of an ultimatum, that it shall assume the positions of Blair's Broadhead letter, as recently re affirmed by Qon. Linton* Stbphens And it magnanimously says that it wants to meet the DeBftcrft&df other States as equals, not as dictators, and then if the Convention, upon a fair view of the whole field, chooses to take the pesifioni held by Mr. Stephens, well and good. It dis tinclly states that it has no fault to find with those positions in themselves conside^.' b&i

The Lexington (Ky.j Pre** says that the Southern Democrats demand, and that they have a right to sdemand, that ihey shall not be required to accept the reconstruction acta as .accomplished facta, which they "are pledged never to agitate or redress. It calls upon the National Democracy to realize that the day re past when they can temporize with questions of vital importance, and insisting that there should be "no authoritative indorsement or acquiescence as regards those wrongs, the consideration of which is but postponed," it says: "If the Democratic party should succeed in carrying the elections of next year, and securing the Executive Department of the General Government, as well as that of the lower House of the Federal Legislature, it will then be in a position to pursue a policy which will restore the Government to its normal condition, and re-es-tablish it as a Constitutional Union between sovereign and independent States."

The South Carolina papers are giving the first response to Senator Robertson's tetter to four Ex-Confederate officers, ap pealing to them to assistin the restoration of peace. They are not reassuring. The Columbia Phoenix is willing to give him credit for good intentions, but complains that Gov. Scott, when calling upon leading gentlemen of the Slate to assist in the restoration of peace, and -Mr. Robertson in nuking a similar call, both sought to give an impression that the men appealed to are responsible for the storm that has been raised. The Charleston Xews expresses similar idea? and asserts that the persecuted and halfuined whites have obeyed the laws, and until within the past Yew weeks, not finger has been raised against the constituted authorities of the State. And the Charleston Courier, to the same effect, in sists that there is not a single wrong in South Carolina which may not be traced as the direct and necessary results of .bad government.

In. an article declaring the Republican party a failure and a curse, the Savan nah RepybUcan iasserts that the "whole couif of the Republicans since they came jfitg power in 1860, affords proof conclusive that they are unfit to govern a.free people that "the the late war waged upon the Southern Stated' was a crime a a in in an a "the South can not be warred upon with impunity," and that further legislation by Congress, such as proposed, will "make twenty Ku Klux where there is now one, and but a short time will elapse before the people will be driven to civil war for the protection of their property and firesides."

The Louisville (Ky.) Jeffersonian democrat publishes Hon. Linton Stephens' speech at Augnsta, Ga., declaring the reconstruction measures unconstitutional and, therefore, void, and says, that "there is no help.but in a readjustment of our institutions, and in a renewal of onr constitutions." We quote from its comments: "Hie crime of reconstruction produces alienation and anarchy, and there is no escape but in restoration aye, we go further, and demand a re-adjust-ment of our institutions upon renewed constitutions."

A bill providing that tne Governor of Missi-ippi may direct the prosecution of a person accused of crime in some other count), when from prejudice or some other cause an impartial trial can not be had in the county in which the offense was committed, has excited the ire of the Jackson Clarion, which styles it a bill of abomination, and says it is such villain ous contrivances as this that produces Ku Klnx organizations, and that the people will "take care of themselves by unlawful combinations against such interference with the inalienable rights Sf free men as is contemplated by this iniquity." Alluding to the same bill, the Vicksburg Herald says: "If the House passeu the bill, if that 1-ody of Dick Turpins concurs with the Jack Sheppardsin the Senate, it will produce an abundant crop of KnKlux—KuKlux without masks! If the "carp«t-bag sconndrels, white and black, who are now engaged in plundering the people of Mississippi, imagine that there is no limit to the forbearance of our citizens,.that they have an exh&nstlesssstock: of patience, we beg ihem to dismiss that idea. We tell them that our people never will submit to this last outrage." And, further: "The whole bill is a vast, monstrous, unheard of iniquity, a colossal crime, which had its birth in the brain of a devil, ond was voted for and supported by fiends and cowards, whose maligniam in of vi irif I-

A Few TboBglit« €«H^inil«f -**^fltW 'J^DV Jews. That the Jews were at one time a peculiar and highly faVored„ people of God, none will deny but whether that people iid, ni& fall under the displeasure of Peity in coojiquence of their oft-repeated and persistant disobedience, t%e degree iri whieh th«y have no claim to any ex-trayrdi^-yry protection from Providence, is a question which will admit of much thought. The writer of this article, without any desire to elicit controversy, inclines to the opinion jthat the Jews^aj^. favored, to thi3 day, abAve aH ©thee

have been for infraction* of the Mosaic laws, re iaf not', aiid^oePtiot permanently affect their-worldly prosperity. We, see a people of. many millions, scattered over the face of the civilized world, in possession of, and handling a very large proportion of the capital that. moves the business of the world and yet nej-man can say that they.created. any ponsidera-. We portion qf that capital. It.is nothing unusual to see a few: individuals of other nationalities^ ,owning great weahh that they' did,,not .creata,. It is not strange, for the reason-that tliey Iiave vast crowds of producing citizens from which to glean their golden aggregate. But, suppcsingttlie English, the French, or the Americans, were to iajlte it into their heads to live without labor, and-'

's^eo^^e-^.6Hh^3|Bots^'ifhei^

man foolish enough to suppose that the, enterprise wo'ild beattended with success There is not one dollar of avaialble capital in the world not prbduced by labor. Now the Jews, as a people, have more capital than any other rneft, and they do not la bor. 'Who can point, to a house, built ol brick made by a Jeqj? Who.can appease his hunger with bread, made from -flour raised by a Jew? And where is the farm, cleared up and improved by a Jew "They tpil not, neither do they spin," and yet the hard-working Gentiles have not a tithe of the money possessed by this "peculiar" people, "there js .. i\pt{t ing that can be organized by humu in genuity, capable uf producing similar results among any other people. Churches' and secret societies., have not, and can not accomplish any such results. The Society of Friends come nearest to the mark but they are producers. Let them cease to till the soil, as the Jews have done and in a short time they would be a community of paupers. There is no special Providence, controlling and conducting the golden current into their coffers. It is the fiat of Heaven that the Jews shall not labor that they shall prosper and grow rich from the industry of other na tions. That man must be blind, indeed who can not recognize, the hand of Deity upholding the Jews from the hardships the weariness, and in many instances, the degradation of toil.

The world has combined against the Jews, and put forth every possible exer tion to degrade and impoverish them and yet the loss and sorrow inflated were but temporary. Every civilized -nation excepting America, has passed laws to degrade them and furious mobs have hunted, butchered and robbed them, even in the streets of London, a.id yet what did ii all amount to? The Jews, in short time had accumulated, without manual labor, more than they possessed prior to their spoliation. Jews have been, and always will be, a people with "plenty of money)" surroundedfby the easy circumstances that always attend those who have others in their debt. To day, the nations that persecuted the Jews, are compelled to go to a Jew and borrow the money with which to vindicate th ir national r,or. There is not a nation in Europe that can maintain a war of any considerable mag nitude or duration, without having recourse to the Jew money-lenders. What a spectacle is presented here! A people whom the nations have combined to d« stroy, furnishing the means of salvation to their uld be destroyers. Is not the hand of Providence visible in this?

The writer of this article is not a Jew, nor a member of any church, andJhas no fault to find with the, state of things above described, but would merely inquire whether the fact of the favor of God not being withdrawn from the Jews, even after their crucifixion of Christ, does not raise some very serious doubts as to the divine origin of the Evangelical system of religion? I believe firmly, every word of the New Testament bpt #hen I see the descendants of those \fho crucified the Bedeemer, living at .their ease, in,the enjoyment of every earthly comfort, while, oh tlie other hand, the descendants of the most zealous andt devout.champions of the cross, form the rank and file (of standing armies to he shot at for few dollars a month, and perform ill the drudgery of building Uie cities and railroads of the world, therthought naturally arises—If the Jews ate wrong, why are they favored of 1! ay en? And if the Christians are right, why is it that they are the slaves of the earth?

The extent of the favot in which the Jews were held in olden time, by this Creator, is not fully appreciated by most people I will give a quotation, to show how potent it was: "Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: Thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it: or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God."—Deuteronomy., chap. xiT, verse 21.

A love that extends such an extraordinary privilege as this, does not easily difc out nor will it be withdrawn unless for the most flagrant and heinous sins. The Jews were so beloved

that they were not

suffered to lose the value of an animal that died from disease or old age, but were permitted to sell it la the aliens .Now, according to this law, were Vigo coanty settled by Jews, and Putnam county settled by Gentiles, it would be perfectly legal and regular for a citizen of the former county to transport diseased meat to the latter county and sell it to the Gentiles—or "aliens." This is in the Bible, and mint be admitted to be true. It is also'frue that (he Jews are wealthy without labor, and the majority of the Gentiles are poverty stricken, awl suffer from-want, although they toil incesnufetly. Do these Tacts prove th'at- ifce Jews are wrong, o^h^t^ theXDlxrUtians are right?0
