A tendency almost equally strong, however, is, strange to say) the spirit of contradiction, as display. ed in the senseless perversity of chil dren, and in the obstinacy and folly of grown people. lan, in society, moves constantly under the influence of theso two tendencies, and shapes his Conduct as they direct. Contradiction is an ciffort of the liind. It is the first effort of thought, rejecting error or its . appoarances. I-. spirit is found most vigorous in meII of great mental capacity, but not of the highest geius, and also in fouls. In the first it coies from overi colifidence iii their ab-ility to correct others ; ill the :eiond, froni their coni sciousiness of' weaknev.iss, lack ot conlifi delloe inl I rlich intellect, an114d str.oIg in) dividuiality asserting iiself by 0he blind force of% ill.

Tihe Late War-A Ploody Exchange Ideasi No 3. The idea for which the South fought, then, we hold, to have been the iindestructibility of the States; thte idea foi' which the North fought was the perpoetuity' of the Union. The result of' the war will be an ex '-/urngea of these two ideas. Tholi South hams accepjted the idea for which (lhe Northi fought TPhe Nor'th, with the election of Seymour and. Bliair, or if niot, thion, after another convulsion originatinig at tho Nor'th itself, wvill accept (lie inidestructibility of the States. And wheon these two p)rinci ples8, apparently as opposite and in 3onmSistent with one another as thto sentt'ifugal and contripetal forces of Ito earth, shall have been settled >eyond dispute, wo will have pro cross and peace. To prove our view, lot us recur to facts, The majoeity of the Southern people vere disposed to wait for the overt act on the part of Lincoln, nor did thly believe in "the girdle of fire' theo:y, or the "ringing of the tree" theory, as to fren and slave labor, but they woro unanimous on the doctrino of States Righ1s, and the plain inton tion to cooroo the States united the South. The removals of Fremont and 11untor, because of their emanoi, pation orders, and the substittion of other commanders in their place, and the Andrew Johnston resolutions of. fered and unanimously adopted in the United States Senate, on the day af ter the battle of Mnassas, prove, that the North o.teroed the fight, not to abolisl slavery, but to perpetuate the U nt ion. lroe labor and slave labor, i is true, entered largely as eleliemits an11d occasions of the war. ThIe South )e ing inl a minority, aid believing the State institutiol of slavery threatened, becamo very jealous of States Iights. 'The disputo would in time have been settlei, however, but for the plain choico- of force as the arbiter on tihe partlof the Radical party-thc greatest blund or in statesmanship upon - the record of history. And our Statesmen also blundered ininensely in this very respect, that they posponed the issue of States Rights, and made it upon th ques. tion of slavery, a sect ioial issue. Mr. Rhett was right, in urging the supe ror wisdom of testing the question upon the issue of taxation, and of- do ing so bfore the Northern States be came stronger than the Southern by three to one in numbers, and double that ratio by the development of every variety of resources. This war, however, like some others with all of i(s Cnities, has lad a tendenvy to promote peee, jist as litigation has settled principles of law and rules of procedure. As liti gation gradually wins region after re gion from the domin ion of doubt, so that to question certain rights in civil ized society which have been decided again and again, would be considered by sober men as proof of idiocy or lunaCy, just so, war and treaties, and modes of thought resulting from war, have settled, beyond dispute, certain principles of publie justice for thle rega lation of nations in their intercourse with each other. The numitiber of questions in private business that still admit of doubt, however, is so great and the number of complicated rela. tions that will arise with the extenl sion and variety of business under new and untried forms, is almost so infinite, that litigation, at least in the form of arbitration, can never coMie to a close. And the number of settled principles of public law arc so few, and the nuumber of queOst ions affect inn g the interests of nat ions that ar~e still in doubt arc so many, that it is hope less to look for an end of war. For as it is d ishionorable coward ice in an in dlividual to yield a doubtful point t( threats or force, before his judgmnent is assured that it is right to do so so nations would soon sink into con tempt and degration, that would no' light uipon a reaison-ablo doubt, ther< being no common arbiter botweer them.
