Judging the past by the present, as sn outsider I would say tbe prospect is anything but : flattering. Then there was mors business done than -now.

He is placing his sons in a position that they cannot help becoming wealthy men. If they do not, it will be their own fault.

And every movement for the formation of such a party is iu effocl a move ment for strengthening the rebel Democ racy, and will but tcud to render more easy and secure the sweepiu tiiuoiph oi the Democracy in every iSuuthern State. It should be known everywhere, that not one Republican out of a hundred UvV .UJtking o do with it; lliat the tmina lCuuscrvaiive Republican" is assumed simply for purposes. of deception; that it wekus and demoralises the only orgauiztiiuu that can maintain the cause of nationality and human rights, and tbat it keeps out of the Republican ranks numbers ot good men who would otherwise eventually join us. So long as thsro ia any considerable class of men who oannot see wherein loyally is superior to treason; so long as there is in existenoe a powerful faction which would make the exercise of political or oivil privileges dependent upou tho accidents of color or race; so long as there is any body of men who contemplate direct or indirect violation of the national faith, just so long must Republicans maintain their organization in tact, and yield to no efforts, hostile or seduotire, that may tend to distract .or divide. The ('Conservative Republican" movement is simply a strategem of tha Democracy to possess themselves, under an assumed name, of strongholds which they could not openly capture. It is the KuKlux mask and robe, put on to oonoeal the rebel gray. If tbe Republican press of the nation, if the administration would not see the entire South pass unitedly into the hands ofthe rebel Democracy, they must lend their" united influence to tbe support of the triie and steadfast Republicans" of" the Southern States, and must set their countenances more firmly than of late against the insidious enemies of our cause.
