The Tribune says the Senate, yester? day, devoted nearly the whole session to a discussion of Southern outrages, aud some remarkable statements not wholly new, yet startling in their disclosures, were made bj' Southern Senators. Thc propriety of making thc investigation seems unquestioned, but lhere ia great dauger that it may lead to some new measure of reconstruction, of which we have had quite enough to demoralize the most sober and staid society in the country. We cannot but believe that tho source of half tho trouble in the South is the mistaken legislation which has given privileges to one class and de? nied them to others, and thus arrayed cue party in violent hostility against an? other. Wc trust an investigation of thc outrages will convince Congress of tho folly of continuing political distinctions, provocative of bitter and relentless hos? tility.
