Vigilance ?vivi Activity. ***
That one of the first duties of tho
Southern people at the present juno
tnro of their political affairs is to take
an active interest in tho olections
-which will precede tho re-organiza?
tion of their State Governments, is
now- evident. -The telegram from
Mobile, which we published ou Fri?
day morning, roferring to a meeting
.of colored people of that city, nt
which 5,000 wero present, most of
them armed, shows conclusively that
evil agencies aro at work to stir up
mischief, and that even after the p?o
ple of the South manifest their wft-i
lingness to reconstruct under tho
provisions of tho laws of Cob gross,
the end is not yet-they are still to.
be further persecuted by those who
do not caro a fig for the - progress or
completion of tho work of recon?
struction under any law whatever,
and who havo no part or lot in tho
matter, only so far as personal aggran?
dizement is concerned, 'or political
ambition is to bo gratified.
Alluding to tho political direction
tho colored voto may take if it should
poss entirely under tho control of a
few designing agitators, and urging
that, as that class has been invented
with tho franchise, a division in its
political action would bo wholesome,
tho National Intelligewxr says, very
truly, that .the lessons of history
teach in vain, if wo;do not take alarm
at tho prospect of a vast body of
men, most of whom aro unprepared,
by tho most common test of intelli?
gence, to exorcise the right 'of fran?
chise, coming in and controlling pub
lie policy, over the heads of two or
three times the number of white men.
Especially will there bo extremo
danger, should tho Southern people,
from supineness or indisposition to
contend with the promoters of this
mischief, hold off thor hands and let
their future destiny be shaped by influ?
ences they slrould use every exertion
{o thwart, and to bring to their aid
the new political strength these agi?
tators would deprive them of.
It is of the utmost consequence,
then, that this matter should bc
promptly attended to by all classes ol
our people, and especially ought pro?
perty-holders, tax-payers, and those
representing capital and substance
among us, not lot the now element ol
political strength among them hf.
trifled with. Atrocious schemes O.
legislation, confiscation and utter mis?
rule, liko that which afflicts Tenues
see, to:dny, may and indeed will b(
the results of this criminal indiffer
once to the evil tendencies of the pre
sent condition of affairs, especially
in regard to this matter. Fire shouh
be fought with fire, and the best anti
dote against tho mischievous ha
rangnes which aro being delivered tc
the negroes in various Southern citie?
and localities, is to be found in tin
honest efforts of our own people tc
enlighten and instruct these people
among whom they have always lived
as to their rights, duties and highes
interests under the new condition ii
which they find themselves.
Falling back on false dignity ant
pride, and refusing to recognize am
appreciate the situation, will be a mas
ruinous policy for our people to pur
sue, and end disastrously to their bes
interest, and to their civil rights ant
liberties. We offer these suggestion
from a keen conviction of duty, nn<
not as a mere matter of political clap
trap, to evoke discussion.

Ano! Un Et-Cio?tiiior on thc Sit un
(lon.
Ex-Governor McBae, of Missis
sippi, has written a letter concerning
the present condition of public affair
at thc South. After rehearsing th
political questions which led th
South into a contest of foreo with th
General Government, ho says tba
the victory of tho latter leaves th
Southern States no rights but sue:
as the conqueror may choose to giv
them. He thinks President Johnso
has had none but tho best intention
in tho policy he lins pursued, but ti
grets that ho did not call Congrof
together in extra session as soon n
the war was over, aud agreo with tin
body on somo policy of reconstru?
tion, adapted to the necessities of tl
case.
Ho advises tho people of Missi
sippi to submit to-not accept-til
terms of the military bill as the fiei
thing they can do, but would not at
vise thc freedmen to register or vot<
"unless it sb ouid appear tb nt bad
men aie likely to influonco thom or
lead them astray." He thinks they
will act in concert with tho white
Citizen? of the South, ?nd says that,
although apprehensions were enter?
tained before the war that the slaves
might riso in insurrection, but that
they proved faithful through that
struggle.
In conclusion, he saya all the peo?
ple have now to do is to conform to
the legislation of Congress. Tho
letter is a plain, straightforward
recognition of tho present political
situation at tho South, and wo havo
no doubt but that its counsels and
similar advice from other Southern
leading men, will generally bo fol?
lowed by the people of all classes.
