Ihave been through the affort, asof the effort, and watched its phases while there was probability in its temporary suc- eess, and scon it wane to utter failure. Sinee that event 1 Bave had an excellent opportunity of surveying the whole $eld, and testing the condition of things and thoughts eonsequent on the collapse. The impressions which have formed and settled in my mind as the result of all this may ot be unacceptable, or unimportant, at the present stage of the situation. My first experiences, after the die was cast in 1861, were hered in Alsbama and Georgia. Throughont both these v strong undereurrent flowed from the outset t agal the cxtremists North and Bouth. 70 nowhere without, in some form or other, spcountering ill-disguised displeasure at the eagerness with which hostilities were invited by Soathern leaders, and nowhero that the men who muttered this dissat tion against th & of their own sectiop, did not dep! the coercive t cies of those at the other section. was particularly the case prior 1o the attack on Aftor that, it was conceded by all the moderatista that the North could hardiy do else than it did; and efforts at co- ercion we wed not ouly inevitable, but, to some Tie Union eléwent which was, by forco . mufled, soon slumbered as completely Bt it did live, and found oceasional wents for its ex Ju8 in the extravagaut scliemes of the Montgomery Coneress.

These men were, 1 say, welcome to lose life and Bmb, but to gain none of the sweets of power. And most of them did risk a)l, with as unsunted o devotion as the loudest toned thunderers for perpetual separation.

They were Bot, it is a'so true, the politicians of their neighborhoods, and, as in the calm past, they stood aloof frow the manu- facturing of statesmen, so, in the storm, they were held aleaf by the manufactured statesmen. Strange as it way seem to you, it is not &0 much from those mep, in cither of the States I have now i view, that the best and purest Union men of the day can be gathered. Allowing the s to possess an unbroken political i ity, and that the stigma of *rebel” does mot aftach to them, the ** reconstructed * gentlemen of the amay, who were huddied nto the vortex under emotional o other pressure, represent, at this mowent, the sincesest and most docile ¢lass of Unionists you can find either in @eorgin of sen as Alexander Ste . aad Hersehe ,and Benjamin Fitzpatrick smeoug the 10 or classes are as thooughly Union to-day as though they were never successfully woo by 1 doubt if W.
