Apeecfc of Heantor CeukllBf At Tweddle Hall, Albany, N. Y.,October 11, Senator Roscoe Conkltng delivered a most able atd brilliant address to an assemblage of over two thousand Republicans. We extract par agraph from the addiess, as published In the New York Times, in which the Senator alludes to THX SOUTH. In the south prosperity prevails, in so far as the executive government can confer It. The blacks are prospering:, and their agricultural societies and other Indications show thelu rap idly emerging from the degredation to vthicb ►generations of servitude had reduced them That much disquiet and demoralization should prevail at the close of a great rebellion which prostrated all civil government. Is a thing of course. Disturbing elements are at work there. The old Democratic stato rights element fa as busy as a St. Vitus dance. “The resolutions of •fW’* won’t be still. Jefierson Davit Is loose, owing artly to bis not being hanged. He, and the rest like him. all vote, but he and a few others, who cheated the gallows, cannot hold office till their disabilities are removed. Great wrath is poured out by Demncrita. and l»y some not calling themselves Democrat*, upon carpet-baggers. There area great pnaoy car pet baggers, and they are not'all In the south, but the southern carpet-baggers have one thing In their favor. Most of them went there with knapsacks on their backs—all but rebels were glad to have them go, and rao*t all but rebels are disposed to let them do as they please about coming back again. If improper men are elected to office In the southern ststes. It is the fsult of the people—they all vote, rebels and all. Their oa*e Isn’t as bad a* ours by halt. Improper men bold elective positions here too, and the worst of it is, they were not even elected— fraud counted them in, and yet we submit to it A certain clnss of educators in the south are try ing the efficacy of "booting, burning and whip ping their foi mer slaves, and others, whose politics do not suit them, and our opponents are sorely exercised b. cause at the last scales congres* pa-sed an actautborlzfng the president to chastise the murderous Kuklux baqd* un less they sub-ide. It is hardly to he feafed. however, that many people in the north can be mystified by this attempt to enlist sympathy for men who are walking monuments of tb* mercy of the Araerean people. We are told the act is unconstitutional Most acts, of late year*, have been unconstitutional In the estimation of our critics. If this act violate" the constitu tion, we may safely trust the courts to find it out Our opponents have counter plans, or at least criticisms What are they? They complain because the moment we struck the arms from tbelr hands wc did not and could not give com-1 plete repose and prosperity to the communities of tbe south. Thin is no better than a wail against destiny. N 1 people scourged by last ing war was ever made whole tbe day or the year after. But the ringleaders of the rebellion who, having sworn to uphold their govern ment, committed perjury a* well as treason, were not all at once allowed to hold office, and ihi* is constantly laid at our door. So be It—the question is chieflv one of time, and the Republican party baa been possessed of an idea, perhaps I should eay sentiment, that one, little badge of blame should be wortt for a' while by those who caused the greatest funeral j in history.
