Vader this ti$ls, the ?bic?go Evening
Joitrnal (radical) writ?? itself io to the
oonolusiou that ' "the ' reports . of the
generals commanding the ?arfeos mili?
tary districts of tba Sooth, : show a sad
state of affairs. Jostice is trampled in
Ana wlin ?rtii, Inn, "gnnerais cammand-.
bile Register. They ire?, in most cases,
. jory of radical generals, who
not only report, but govern the interests
of tho radiool porty; and it is npon the
testimony of these witnesses that the
^i?fcWb is tried and condemned as tho
.?*y??t?QU. liv which "justice is trampled in
'fljjg dust, and, Ku-Kl?xiam is rampant. ''
Whatever of crime there may he in the
Sooth-and wo havo tho daily proofs in
;;jc^rN?rth~ern and Western exchanges
that it is leas prevalent in the South than
inihV^JoTat'r^tes^is principally due
ito the tyrannical government lo which
ibo p?opl? of the South have been sub?
jected since ibo war. The wonder should
not be, that there is crime in those out
' g$d societies, but that there is not a
. vast deal more. Badical reconstrnction
has, done all that devilish 'ingenuity
' Obnid do, to make demons of the South?
ed peop^ and drive them to despera?
tion. \ Yet the people have borne their
?\/^by?h?.M}^??Wr- have, and as no
Other people in Europe or America to
onld bear it. How long would
a people of England or France*, or even
ott Spain, remain passive under such u
government a? that of the reoonstrnoted
States of America? a government hold?
ing ita tenure of power neither by divine
nor popular right, but forced on the
citizens, against their suffrages, by the
power of the Federal eward, wielded by
,a partisan Congress? a government that
ia toe very incarnation of despatio force.
How long, we ask the radical Journal,
would Chicago and Hliuois put np with
S tyranny that should turu over their
people to an alien powor, armed with the
authority to make their laws and to tax
.their property? We have respect
enough for the manliness of the people
of Chicago to believe that the fires of
; armed resistance would be lighted in
";' that city the first moment that its citi
7.6US should feel the pressure of such a
tyranny. And if it should so have hap?
pened that a Demooralio administration
at Washington had put it upon Illinois,
as a radical one has put it upon the
Southern States, the Chicago Journal
would be the first to lose its "loyalty"
and become a fierce "rebel."
Crimes are the offspring of tyranny
the world over. Yon cannot trample on
tho sacred rights of mon-especially of
brave man accustomed to liberty-with?
out arousing in their natures the spirit j
evil and the passions of revenge. The I
outraged mau, in the expressive phrase ]
of Eogene Sue, "sees red" aa naturally
as the eye of woman brightens to the
plaint of holy affection. For nearly five
years the sullen fires of discontent, sense
of deep wroug, pnntiug for justice and ;
passionate longing for revenge havo boen ?
pent up iu tho hearts of Southern men :
and women; and to their honor, too, for
they would bo brutes wer? they insensi?
ble and callous to their wrongs. And
yet with all th u?> o smothered promptings
to outbreak and violeuce, how marvellous
is the publie quiet and how rure the erup?
tions from the volcanic crater! Tuke any
section of tho South embracing a popu?
lation equal to that of Chicago, aud with
help of all the e.r. parte reports of all thc
radical "Commanding Generals" iu the
Sooth, you will lind that more crime is
committed in Chicago iu a day thuu iu
any such district of tho country iu the
South iu a week. Sufleriug as we of tlie
South do; deprived of the lights thut
came down from our ancestors, equally
with the people of the North; ruled over
against our conseut, hy alien nd ven tu-j
i'ers and our former slaves, chating nuder j
a yoke fastened upon our necks by men
who ought to be our compatriots and
! ?rot hers-is not that enough to satiate j
tho hate of radical hearts? or is it ucoes-1
sury to plant tho poisoued arrows of de?
struction und slander in our quivering |
flesh in order to fill the mensuro of the I
vengeance of our party enemies? AR
there is u just God, there must he retri- I
billion for those wrongs.

MK. EDITOR: The bill before tho Sen?
ate to transfer to a private compauy,
forever, tho property of the State
in the immensely valuable deposits of
phosphate within her limits, is au ano?
maly in legislation. I venturo tho aaaer
tion, that a parallel cannot be found in
the history of legislative bodies, where
prominent and influential members of a
Government have openly and avowedly
combined in au effort to transfer from ite
uses to their own, so immense a treasure,
without the shadow of a pretext or justi?
fication. In tue prostration and distress
of the State, the discovery of the phos?
phates vras looked upon almost as a spe?
cial manifestation of Providence in our
behalf, -.vb i eh would enable na to rise su?
perior to the difficulties by which we
were surrounded. But, beforo a single
dollar has been realized from this source,
while we are overwhelmed in debt, while
our childreu are growing up in ignorance
for tho want of schools, while our labor?
ing meu are clamoring for an appropria?
tion by which they will be enabled to
procure for themselves humble but happy
homes, a movement is sprung in the
Seuato which sweeps this vast treasure,
susceptible of conferring suoh blessings
and proaperity upon a whole people, aud
coufors it upon a few, who were ap?
pointed to protect the public interests,
aud not to destroy them. Where is their
pretended interests for the rights of la?
bor; where their regard for the rights of
the colored race, by whose votes they
have been placed iu positions of power
and profit? In order that a fow may be?
come rich, the many mast be impov?
erished. A State struggling to preserve
its credit, must be deprived of its most
available means of maintaining it; our
children must bo deprived of education ;
our laborers prevented from obtaining
homes. We trust that there are still
sufficient independence, and honesty in
the Senate to prevent the passage of such
a bill of abominations, and that our State
may bo preserved from such an indelible
stain upon her annals.
