Is it "peace" within the limits of the ten Southern States? Is it within the boundaries of this ill-fated region that the "enjoyment of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness" are to be the boons of a celestial "peace?"

Tradd-street near Legare may 11 Charleston INSURANCE wrongs new combinations ana new imer- ties And in this change it will sink into the deeps of forgetfulness and contempt by negro slaves To be dominated over by black barbarians? to be legislated out of their property by ignorant savages? to submit to au armed negro militia? to negro public officers and jurors and judges and all the nameless horrors of mongrelization and miscegenation The Times has surely followed the example of the illustriouslip Van Winkle and in these latter days has fallen asleep and has clean forgotten all the events of that slight period of time between the years 1860 and 1865 I ask again what does the Times mean by "peace Does it mean a standing army throughout the ten Southern States for the next fifty years or more to enforce negro domination? And when it says "Grant is peace" does it mean that he is a very fit tool or tyiaut to carry out that sort of "peace?" If so for once the Times has hit upon one truth For it will be a butcherly work and it will want a first class butcher to put that peace into execution It is now' hundreds of years since -the English have been trying to keep down tke Irish people under a tyranny and an oppression far less irksome humiliating or destructive than that which is now enforced and sought permanently to be enforced over the people of ten Southern States each one of them larger than Ireland And it may as well be said now and may as well be realized now as at any future time that the people of the South don't intend to remain under negro domination You will have to quadruple Irelands for a hundred years to come to hold down with the gibbet and the bayonet before that people will pass under the yoke of negro slaves The matter had just as well be looked in the face squarely and calmly I ask what "peace" Ls it the Times is talking about? Is it social moral political or religious? Is it in New York New Hampshire or Nova Scotia? The Times certainly can have no allusion to anything or any spot South of Mason's and Dixon's line when it talks of this "reconstruction" of the negroes of the ten Southern States as a permanent basis of "peace" between the white men of the South and the whito men of the North If the Times wants to know what "peace" means in these United States I will tell the Times "Peace" was made by General Sherman in the Spring of 1865 in his terms of capitulation with General Johnston That was "peace" and nothing else ever ivill be "peace" President Johnson by a fatal error of judgment overthrew those terms of agreement and entered into the boundless region of limitations and qualifications and exceptions He opened wide the door to Radical passions and Radical greed and Radical and in they rushed lie put into their hands the very weapon with which they broke his power and his administration into nothingness The terms of General Sherman's treaty of peace and his many proclamations throughout Tennessee Alabama and Georgia were based upon the broad proclamations of President Lincoln and sustained by a half dozen specific acts of Congress It was proclaimed by Congress Jn resolutions passed by both of its branches (and no other proclamation or enunciation ever was made) that the war against the Confederate States was for the restoration of the Union and solely for tho restoration of the Union It "was proclaimed and continually held up beforo the Southern armies and people by General Sherman President Lincoln and Congress that with the sole exception of the abolition of slavery they desired the Southern States to return into the Union with their full rights as States un-- that they were fighting for nothing else but to force them to do arid that when they had done that they would have accomplished all they desired or intended to accomplish The 'men left our ranks and went to their homes on these assurances tired of fighting and willing to forego an independent government rather than endure further hardships This closed the war Does the or any of its adherents think that the war would have been closed at this with less enect upon the anairsot the world than the paddle of a steamboat upon the heaving tumbling bosom of the storm tossed ocean and no man will be found "so poor to do it reverence" But why this melancholy piping ot the Times upon the negro suffrage
