nitely, the fact, that the American people,
by a very large majority, appro v aud en-djirxn.-
thn Congressional reconstruction
policy in the Southern Siatea. Nor can we
doubt, alter thia result, that thia must be
eom tb policy o( the L'nion. I'niversal
manhood u(Trage, the equality ol all race,
and the concentration of power io the cen
tral government or in the Congress, seem
to have been aanctiotted by thia vote of the
people.
However ungrateful thia nyy he to the
feelings ot the Boutbern people, it ia palpa
ble that tbe sooner they adjust theins-lves
to the oeceadties of the case and the inexo
rable logie of eveuts, the Iw'tler. It in im
possible tor the eonvirtior.t ot the Southern'
people, a to what ii right and nwrt, to he
changed, but by audi facts a? prove tlie new
order of things to b,e, best and safest for the
countiy. Their opinions have been tini-ed
tiptm Wj 'wttled e,mtrierm,: and
tual experiment of the practical operation
ol the new regime, which has only served to
confirm their previous judgment.
Our Radical opponents have indulged in
biglv.flown promise and anticipations of
the future under Radical rule. They have
urged that a better day for l:ibor and euter
prise will soon bleaa tb South that capi
tal and population and energy will -flow
in upon us, and tbat in a few years our peo
plo frill forget tbe past, because of their hap
pier condition. We cannot bring our
tmndi t -top for ny ,,1-,. r?sul Tl
grounds of thcerorwinn irrit rrnsjsrlriaTT'
and such hope will not be realized from
these source.
Nevertheless, it behoovesevery raMj.. wo-.
m ,n and child, in the State, to make the
very beat f a bad case, poasible. Many,
under the gloomy apptehenstona they in
dulge, will leavo the BtM and go elsewhere,
while tbe great . bulk ol our population, v
unable to leave, roust remain and battle
with their- difficulties a beat they may.
We belief that nothing will be gained by
leaving, unless on has aanpta resources.
Peaca and quiet, industry and economy,
are the only assurances that the Southern
people haw of good in the future. It it
,, airrTrjle fl.lj and (ool-bardjuesa, either tn
give way to melancholy and despondency,
under such clreumstanceaof io growl and
fret OTtf air BltMtnent Which we cannot
avoid. A bad government, badly adminis
tered, is better than no government at all ;
hence, we should demean ourielves as good
citizens, so as not to inftiuge the laws in ex
isteuc or give room to ihose in authority to
complain of our fidelity to the Si ate and the
country., Ottr, lot maybe an undesirable

A primary and cherished object, which
Ihe Rank had in viea, was, to enable ita
debtors to procure, al a unall prio-, Ita
notes, which Were received at pur. This not
only enabled them to pay their d. l.ts oasily,
but tendeil to decrease tiie debt otitic Hank
arising irom its circulation. In the course
tne Bank couiij red.Tiu us lu-l-a at par;
and. In rme rases, brought m tbreateoed
suit to enforce payment in fall. The ditli-
cultiee were compromised upon the baaia,
that the note bolder should receive a certain
tier cen I age on the amount presented, and
hold the residue ot that amount until it
could be ascertained whether the Bmk
could piv any additional sura fn this
way, th Rank continued to proceed, with
greatest economy , hav iog car tailed toe

this policy, a the past and settled policy ol
tbe Bank, was openly announced, and, by
common consent, recommended anil ap

Thenceforth, the Directors felt themselves
