Something Strange
Summary
Letter to the Editor from "Junius" discussing the changes in public attitudes in recent times. The author asks who would believe that the same people who were Southern sympathizers or Rebels four years ago are now singing a different tune and some of them are even talking about Negro suffrage. There has been a complete "about-face." "Traitors have been punished by loading them down with cares, emoluments and spoils of office, and treason has at last been made odious for all coming time, for Andy [Johnson] has joined the traitor band, and compared with his, the treason of Jeff. Davis & Co., sinks into utter insignificance."
