A'NOTIIR LETTER To A SOUTiiRNin MK URO0KS THAT SOUTHERN SKLF-CON' TROL 18 A PRIME HixQUISITE. Some short time since Mr. J. T, Trezovant, editor of the Augusta (Arkansas) Bulletin, wroto a letter tb Hun. John Quincy Adams, of Mas Vachusette, upon polit Ical matto0s ex. pressing, among other things, tho apprehension that, as he puts It, "with Grant's vast patronage, niost unscrupulously used, he would not yield the Presidential chair, oven if defeated before the peoplo in 1872 ; and that our Republio like its predeeossors of old, Is so rapidly drifting Into th channeli 'of corruption, that the people, in des pair, may look at one military leader as the only means of saving them from the utter ruin threated by an other," This wns the general scope of the letter, to which the following is a repl : UINCY, Mass., June 5, 1871. Dear Sir-I cannot pass over, si lently, a lotter which gratlfies me as much as yours, which I received to-day ; and yet, I feel shy of speak.. ilig to you or aly cititen of the "sub jocted States." Idislike to earn the retort, "Oh, it is very easy to preach ; but, suffer as we have, and then tell us how you feel, and we will listen." T do try to tako it hoie to myself ; and I do not doubt that, - in similar circunstances, I should'be'to-day an "'unropentant rebel"-sore, angry, beaten and defiant. And, with me, it would doubtless have been as it has boon with you, that "the tender mer eies of reconstruction had been hard. er to bear than all the horrors of In vasive war." I should have been galled by misgovernment, robbed by imported knavery of the pittance which the war had spared, exasper atod by wilful and persistent minlrep resentation, and cruelly condemned to hopeless importence for the impu ted gilt of cowardly crimes I aibhor red. I should have been condemned, too, to hold my personal liberty at the nod of a nereinary carpet-bagger or the whim of a military satrap. I say that I fear I should have been an "irroconcilable.'' In such a case I think I should be sulky, but I know I should be silly if I yielded to the feeling, for whence must relief cone if my last estate is not to become worse than the first ? Is there a man outside an as, lum who thinks by such a course the "lost cause" can be regained ? By whom, then ? If by the North, believe me that the ex periment of secession has satisfied us that no cause Is worth a civil war. That war has confirmed, beyond a shadow of turning, thu destiny which decreed'that there shall be put one confederated people of the North American Uniion. No. Rebellious I might be ; but weak enough to await the resurrection of secession I do not think I could be. You and I and your friends and neighbors and mine are of one blood ; we were once "fel. low-citizens ;" and the old-time kind nose must linger yet in spots. Our fathers were "brethren," and they must count for something. The whole political problem of the future turns upon the answer to question, "shall we lhve together as friends or ene mies ?'' Now the whole internal policy the present administratIon says wvar. Rleconstruotion mieane war, and the Kn Klux bill declared war. This Union is now held together by force. Certainly, if this Is to be per mannent it would have been better to have parted at first. If' the struggle to cast out slavery overthrew the eon' stitution, what chance la there for a "free'' government, if the North Is to rule the South 1 South Caroliina is to-day the most shameless parody on Republican institutions since Re publican Rome bestrodo all the na.. tions of ancient world, put the sword to their throats, stripp~ed them- bare, and then lacked words to laud the lovelineus of liberty. You cannot be subject, and we ho long free. -The wntramnmelled exercise of local self government by the people of the States is the salt which preserves our system. Take that away and our frame of polity will rapidly rot into despotism. Therefore it is, that, not as a partisan, but wholly as a fel low citizeon, I trust that all the good citizens of the seceded States will frankly and hasnostly accept the revo )utionary ohanges which have been forced upon the constitution, and with thomn, cheerfully adopt the now rela tions of amity anmd political -and civil equality toward the emancipated class which these changes involye, And, therefore, I am glad when I see the noble spirit of your letter perva dsite the ouie.r pl as it does desitethemalignity of a partisan p tess, while the sterling sense of Mr. Vallapd ing baa reformed the North en Iyemoracy. And it matters not ghat man may be chosed to lead us, so long as his heart is large enough to hold hias -whole cuntry ; hi. soul brave epough to embr'aoe a Confederate as brother,. anid hi a lalt~orm wide enough for every Amerloan *ltiuen to stand upon. To compass this end some higpf sa orifice is required of us all; much of aylf-oontrol Is deuiahdea of the South. You all: I 'hear asa.nre me that the alttempt will be made ; and it maalhonestly and; ttn earnest, it not fall4 Agaln thankIng ..., for you letter, I am, Very respeiutful.

Tresevant, Eq.)Augudtt, Ark. 1 A t~t1 singular 'eAk of the 8torm 1111. 1 The storm which pi'saed over our city on Monday afternoon, (says. the Augunsta Chronictle,) played wild an, tics on a gentleman a plantation on Beech Island South Carolina, Two adjoining Aelds, each with a high, t-trong and perfectly new rail fence, were planted one in corn and the other in cotton, both of which were in splendid order and growinglinely. A perfecthurri cane, accomplished by a deluge of rain and hail, swept over these two fields, leaving the surrounding country literally untouched. The corn was completely riddled by the hall, the fodder being rendered uoftt for pul. ling, and the cotton battered and beat down in such a manner that the owner is afraid that it is ruined past redemption. The fincing, which wais as Subst antial as rail fences can be made, was prst rated to the ground, while a large hickory tree, which had stood in the field for many years, was torn up by rootes Several other trees were b iwn down, and the area pres. ents the appearance of having been wept by a bosom of desturbtion. Not a drop of rain fell iu the neigh borhood. WINVNSBOROa Wednesday Morning, July 19, 1871, The Polar Expedition. There is something truly heroie in the expedition undertaken this sum mer to the Artie Ocean for purposes of soientiflo discovery. In spite of every contrivance of art for the pro. teotion of health, it is almost certain that the rigors of the climate will triumph, and that the gallant crew of the Polaris have taken their lives into their hand. The incident calls up the reflection, that man's nature can not be satisfiod with the present life, but craves, with an infinite yearn Ing, something grander, nobler and and more glorious, and with indomia tablo energy, soeks for it, with past sionate earnestness, even this side of the grave. This is the age of mate. rial prosperity and industrial hIuprove ment and progress. But it is the age of a sublime yearring for the truth in all things, and men now, as in the days of primhive martyrdom, willing ly give their lives for the truth. We often indulge a fling at the worse side of the Yankee character. It gives us pleasure to praise the nobler and bet. ter characteristics of that enterpris. Ing and courageous people to-day. This Iolnris expidition is just such a thing i.t Di. Kane's before the war, aid does honor to human nature. We of the South have done nothing that we can at p resent recall to equial eith or enterprise. The Value of Education. If there were no other cause to pre vent rapid immigration Southward, the lack of educational facilities would be enough. The world now understands the money-value, the ma terial growth and prosperity, and the national strength involved in thor ough educaition, and a poor man, when he lands in New York, will select a location where education is a certain ty, rather than one where it Is contin gent. The spirit displayed by other S'tates is in marked contrast with that exhibited here. In Winnsboro', for example, the town has long been without a decent school-building for boys. Owing to pecuniary straitueas, doe, in part, to this eaaise, one train ed teacher has left the placo, who co'uld have been retained. As to ereting a school house for the girls, the blank look of astonishment at time uttet luwacy of even proposing the thing, which meets one upon express ing a wish for one, would be an amus ing farce, were It not a serious ea lam ity, In Iowa Cit3, on the contra ry, besides th-e general 5tato taxeS for education and other purposes, the citisens assemble and eheerfully vote an enormous taz of two per went for erecting a High PehooI building, cost ing over seventy-five thousand dollar., cheerfully pay It, and have the build - ing up and the school in operation in a year, What a contrast I And do we seriously expect to kceep up with the Western B&stes In the race of civ liaation, and yet continue as ineapa ble of combination for social purpos es as we have hitherto been I No. If we catnnot learn to combine' to dovel op. our various resources, we will con tinue mere provincials for a century.
