It' is ibe same appeal that we nearu itvibou ana previous 10 mac tioac. Then it meant to ucite the South 1 1 ? -. t a u A ...'ji , ' A . 1 axraisst national interference wiih sla rerr in the States and to perpetuate tho s?ve power in the national councils Bal now that' slaTery is abon.shcd, it means. to control the colored labor of tbe.South, to sol back tbu principles involved in reconstruction, and to re sist tbeir execution in t lie reconstruct ed Btates. The question ia whether tbe national government shall have the re cognized authority to execute its laws within the i?tates, by force if necessary. and especially to protect its citizens, in the Htatca in all their constituted rights in spite of any efforts on the part td' the States to inrii;ge or deny such rights. We supposed this question settled by the results of the war and by the amendments to the Constitution But no man in the South can deny that the main struggle of the secession lead era. is. now to gain power over Ihe negro ana to resist, uis ireu exercise vi iue rights of full citizenship. The pretence of reform may have one effect in the Northern States, but here in the couth we all know that such pretences are meant only tft.C0Tcru.p the real purpose in view. Ibere is not among the Dem ocratic leaders of the South enough Id the national government to make them care whether i is administered honestly or not certainly not enough to awaken tho excitement and wild earnestness manifested by them in this campaign. Nothing could do it but the single question of the status of the negro in these States and the extent of, the national authority withiu the States. In 1SGS, they mado the issue boldly, and it was answered in unmis takable terms In Kiair s letter and in the newspapers in the South. But the result of that election so broke down their hopes, that, in 172, they accept ed Horace Greeley, or pretended to accept him. in the hope that a defeat of the Kepublican party, no matter how accomplished, would be, at least, an rin;; wde to a restoration 01 States rigbts4jnfluence :;nd power in the administration o: anairs. their failure iu this flank moven.ent was Still more decided than was the direct efl'ortof li38. Now, iu 1 87, we find tbeiii returning to the lactic of lSCS and nominating caudidatcs who were opposed to the prcsccution of -the war in 1861, and whose pas-t records have been sg.iinut the ideas ot national au thority e tabiisheu ty the results ol t lie ate war. Ihe Northern people may be deceived, but we know what it means here. At tho North the real purpose is disavowed : but here the leaders dare not. disavow it, for it is the only ie.sue unoa which they can excite the preju dices of their adherents and lire again the Southern heart. ; I hoi cilnt Neirtli Orolina will refuse to ti ied ajrain in to twin madne: If no ther Southern State breaks ibe column of a uu.ted couth, let North Carolina do ii, and show to tbe friend of natt iianty in tbe North that there i, at least, one' nlace iu tbe South where enlightened and liberal ideas have found u lodge ment in the hearts o1 the people, lnis will, at!eat,giVe them encouragement ta hone that the country cannot be again entirely reel naliied. if North Carolina render this service to the country, it will be entitled totbo grati tude of the uaUen. It ia to induce old friends, who fought wilh me, in 1'0, tbe battle for ibe Union all over this Slate, to join me again iu keeping c ur people free from the bereey of !M?,'v-i rights and secession, that I hayceutcrcd Into tLii csnvsss fnd bow stsrd before you."

We de ceived ourselves or suffered others to deceive us. We were betrayed by pre tended friends. We have paid a pen alty which, if it does not make us wiser, it is because our destruction has decreed in the Courts of Heaven. The hand of Providence is plainly visible n the wonderful events of the last fif teen years. They are but the culmina tion of purposes traceable through pre ceding centuries. They will not be set back by human hands. We may make trouble and desolation for ourselves and perhaps for others. But the onward pro gress of events will not be stayed. The tempest lashes the sea or the earth quake may rock the ground on which wc stand. We wonder and tremble and forget, at the moment, tbe insignificance of these partial disturbances compared with the silent but more mighty dis- rf. it l rrL piav ot iiou s purposes anu power. iae ciouus may niae me sun irom view, out. we know be is still keeping his eternal rounds.

And God's moral ws move foivard the current of events i irresistibly a do those which gov- . a a raa rn the national world, mis moral lurpose will not be defeated by the h sser agencies of human hands. They ruu steadily on in their due limes and masons, axcu may wage tncir wars in opposition, and nations may clash against natioua. The wicked man aud the fcol may invite destruction and de volve the wise and tbe good in a com mon desolation. But the march and unity of events marks the eternal pur poses unbroken. We may fight destiny and die ; bat is il not wiser to consider. What baa the South accomplished by its stolid adherance to the blind tenets of slavery ? Who denies ahat it rather ha lecod than retarded emancipation? The progress of events was setting in favor nf universal freedom. The world was blowing before it. But we made a stand. Did the Southern blood so lav ishly sbel s.top tbe course of evecti? Is it Ukely ever to prove the seed of auv probable or pcssible- good to man kind? Did obit ncy bring a single blessing to any human being oh tar in ? And in like manner baa the obatiaacy of Southern leaders since the war rath er hastened than retardei the measures they have opposed, lt ia because they have sought to go backward while tbe enlightened saaae of tbe civilized world V pointing to progreaa. And some are still urging us to con tinue the fight to keep upon tbe hual inrs the cause that was lost oa tbe field. Tnis is not peace. It is war. By this slubora attitude we sap tbe founda tieaa of prosperity and spread a terrible a loom over the future. A reaewal of bloodshed is more imminent than many suppose.
