The North ern Republi.oai S press is at present in lis'treasing sp asm over the "rebel" outrages on the frcdinien. Every report from the South of a collision betwo61 the rabes is tortured into an 1rggVeasion on the pa't of the whites and magnified into at in assaere of the blacks. These distortions o'f the truth are uqed to influence the State and C6ngressional 'eleetion that are pending in bearly every Northern State. ,The argument is that the I Republbean party must be kept still longer in power, in order to prevent c a, renewal of te reb6liton. I have no doubt in my own Mind that near ly all the hostile iffrays in the South, I a t1iis time, af'e instigated by PRECONCERTE,D ARnANGEDIENT, a Lhe carpet-baggers and scalawags I Seing the agents. The negroes are irtfully incited to violence, and, when they suffer the oonsequencei of ti Aheir o!ly, the fact is telegraphed to e he oioo* of the Attorney-geierAl- at g Washington, as a rebel outrage.- ti What I want to say is that it will be " ,he best policy for the whites to n'hiktain thelr pationce to the very P ast e:tremity. If th3y will control 'l hemselvos during the next two ' nonths-, it is not likely thAt th'eir em er ill "e'r be tried again. A emocratic victory throughout the h orth in November will put an end a' 'rever to the trouble between the ri aces. Wheh 'oilgreis becoie w 31cmocrA,tic, the 'earpet-bAggers will 0 o longer have the goverunient to al bly upon; and Will suddenly find it In onveni6nt to jui. When the fire ci rands are removed, the negrds *ill tih e quiet enough. Every nerve in w he white part of the South; there 6re, should be strained to help the Of lortherh Defiocra'ey and hiberals to tO lect a majority of the next Congress. 9i luch a .esult would be of more value F D the South than the punishment of IP thousand aggressions at the prcsont su ionient.
