I he Senator complained of things loo numerous to meution, ignorinj: the un questioned fact that there is no instance u all history where so much lenienc'y nud magnanimity and generosity was ever exteuded to the vanquished. No drop of blood Was spilled, no estate was confiscated, no vengeance imposed, but the door was widely opened, directly the war closed to reconciliation, in tho south. The trouble was that the south ern people did not in good faith go in and accept the terms and assent to the measures. As all of us can bear wit ness, for years after the war there was constantly grumbling . aud hostility amounting at times to diabolical phrenzy. Beaten as they were, the south, in their own interests would have been better off, if they had yield ed to the inevitable. , NOTICE. Rooms Kbp. Ex. Committee.
