The editor of this paper has shown by his acts that he is the friend of j Col. Keogh. He has seen no reason why that friendship should be changed into hostility.

But Pomeroy Has been and'is now co-operating with the Radical party, after getting several thousand dollars out of the pockets of Southern people for his miserable filthy paper. The New York SuW is ho better friend to the South than was The LaCrosse Democrat, and its de nunciations of Mr. JCej and professions of love for the South are rather unbecom ing, especially as its chief editor was Lin- pboln's Assistant Secretary of "War. Mr,. Key is a Southern born man, he served faithfully in the Confederate army and we firmly, believe he is a true friend of ie South and her interests. Why, then, should not our Southern cotempojr a ries exercise a little charity and forbear a nee towards him, and at least abstain from virulent abuse and unnecessary ridicule. If Mr. Key really believes that his Soutl - ern brethren erred in bringing on the war, it is no great crime many of the best, and truest, and purest and patriotic North Carolinians, as well as other Southerners, believe that the Southern leaders in 1860 and 1861 erred very greatly in precipita ting the unfortunate conflict on account of. the election of Abraham Lincoln, but the day has passed when they can be de nounced as asses and fools for entertain ing an honest Opinion. Then why should Jr. Key, because he happens to hold the office of Postmaster XJeneral under Mr. Hayes be so bitterly denounced ? No doubt a great deal of it is done without much reflection, and we respectfully sug gest that a calm consideration will con vince many that they have done Mr. Key injustice or at least treated him inconsid erately, and unkindly.
