The number of desertion from the rebel armies abundantly establishes this fact. Nad a policy ol wi-e and ßt itesmaniiac conciliation been followed out immediately after the close of thc war it i.s more than rrohaihlc that the condition and dupopitiou of the penplo would now be far better than thoy arc. lJut on thc subject of thc south thc national authority in thc lately rebellious States was divided and broken up into opposing fictions, whose action greatly hindr.jd the re-cstablishment of civil law and good order so much needed among .1 people demoralized by tho most demoralizing of all agencies civil war. Thc country was Hooded with treasury agents who, with their accomplices and imitators, fleeced thc people right and left, returning into tho United States treasury for all the enormous amount of property they seized and confiscated barely enough to pay tho cost of confiscation. Agents of the freed -men's bureau stepped between thc planter and thc laborer, stirring up strife, pcrnet uating antagonism and often adilina their qua of extortion and oppression. On every hand thc people saw themselves robbed and wronged by agents and self-ap pointed agents professing to act under tho sanction of the United States governmont. Xeed it be wondered at that among a community thus doalt with, powerless to resist and trio weak and prostrated for ucce?sful eorrplaint, sumo bitterness and il! feeling should arise ? None but a brave and wellmeaning people could have endured unresistingly all that the south has undergone. Id prosecuting this inquiry I hardly deemed it fair to ask roor thin what had

Ye, gentlemen, in a short time he will marry and intermarry in vour families, it is a little t objectionable to-day, but you will soon get over this, and the persecuted negro will be welcomed to your parlors. This will be the result of the political 'and social changes of the next few months." The lion, gentle nan acknowledges he played the hypocrite for policy's sake, jut as many Northern candidates for Congress are now doing, who deny they are for nc gro suffrage. ly means of this hypocrisy the Radicals expect to carry the next Con1 ress. Maynard tells what the Radicals expect from success in the approaching Congressional elections. He says "the result of the political and soeial changes of thc next few mouths will be" what? "Thtvajro, s'l0rt tiMri m(irnJ nl intermarry in lonrfmnUui." ''It is a little oljectionnll". to-thty" he proceeds, "but you will soon get over this, and the persecuted negroes will he welcomed to your parlors." political and social equality of tho two races is the real platform of the Radicals. Maynard state it clearly. It is put out ol siht here and thero to suit special localities; hut success at the polls willmako it public everywhere. IJn. ijuirer.

They are put by the "boys in blue," and we should like to have Mr. Colfax auswer them as well as Mr. Clarke: Hon. R. W. Clauke Dear Sir : Will you be so kind as to give explicit answers to these interrogatories. I5y so doing you will onfer a favor ou the "boys iu bluu" of Wayne Towuship. 1. Do you endorse the law that exempts thc bondholder from paying taxes on said
bonds, while wc boys have to pay the taxes, at least our portion, after serving to put down thc rebellion, while you bondholders remained at home enjoying ease aud comfort ? Arc you in favor of the negroes exercising the rk'ht of suffrage with us? If not, why did you vote for such a law ia the District of Columbia ? i. Will you be so kind as to tell us how much money you and thc party to which you belong voted to keep and support the negroes in the South, aud who pay thc taxes for that purpose ? 1. How much money have you voted for the benctit of the poor while so'diers, their widows and orphans '! Ö. How much money have you and your party voted to the negro, if any, and how much to the white nr.iu '! l'lease explain fully.

The question id' the -'terms of intercourse" is also before the North. The people of the North desire a restored Union, f rater nal intercourse, peace, harmony and pros pcrity. They desire that the bitterness engendered by the bloody strife should die out of thc hearts of men, and that we should ng.ii:: have a Union of fraternity and mutual interest, a Union as dear to the people of South Carolina as to thofc of Massachusetts. On thc other hand, there is a faction that seems to desire that the people of the South should be held In the condition of helotage, without the rights of American citizen-hip, until sueli time as they shall be forced to elevate an ignorant and brutalized race, lately held in servitude, to equal political and social rights. It remains for the people of the North to determine this question of the "terms of intercourse" at the ensuing election. If they desire a restored Union, a Union of hearts as well as of hands, a Union that will work the future aggrandizement of our country, lc tl.cni vote down the miserable factionists who nro doing all in ther power to keep up the bitterness and strife of war after the war has ended.

Representation and Direct Tacs
"NV c have so often exposed the ful-cboid of the assertion nmde by the radicils that the pending conti(utiunal amendment would, in cae of its adoption, give equal representation, that we are surprised that newspapers and orators of that party will persist in the attempt to deceive the people by repeating it. Thc amendment is an open and gross attempt to defraud thc people of the south and west in taxation and representation, if the arguments of radical concerning the present rule are rcrreet. If representation based on the whole number of persons is an unfair rule. why did not Congress, in proposing a change, provide a dilterent one: 1 ins it did not do so far as the northern States ire concerned. The practical operation of the rule proposed in the amendment ! would bo to have representation m the north as it now is. There is not, probably a sinubnorthcrn State win se reprcsentat'on would be changed by the enfranchisement or disfranchisement of thc negroes within her limits. Representation should be based on the whole number of voters or on the whole ...1 uumber of inlnbitants. The radicals aU

He was recognized by souther 1 Ulinoisans of tho Union army as a youth who had been persuaded by lohn A. Logan to leave his home and join the rebel army. Some months Liter the father of that same boy was arrested, at Logan's instigation, hurried oil to tho capitol prison, Washington, and there confined for months. A trial was denied him, nor was any information given as o the cause of his imprisonment. He was lin.illy released, broken in health by reason of long confinement, injured iu business, and, until this day, has been unable to learn th cnu.se of his arrest and imprisonment. The course nf Logan in this connection is only paralleled by the atrocities of tho times of Marat and Robespierre.
