Lincoln CLAIMS Ahrandria, JUgaia.--
1t is stated from Washington, that Mr..
Bates, the Attorney General of the Lincoln
Government, has given his opinion that
the retroccssion of Alexandria to Virginia
was unconstitutional.
The retroccssion ofs that portion of the
District of Columbia, which originally be-
longed to Virginia, was made by act OF
Congress seventeen years ago. The Lin
coin Government must be hard pressed for
an excuse to cross the Potomac, to be com
pelI4d to to 60 back and behind that.

Those most neat and fastidious in .-aste,
Who of in badly made clothes their money waste.
But strange to say for the very smallest sum,
You feel inclined to expend at Powers Emporium,
He will give you bargains 80 very rcih are rare,
That will compel you for months to wonder and stare
He keeps clothing to suit the large and the small
And to credit our word, Just give him a call.

Vermont was an independent State and
furnished and paid her own troops during
the Revolution.
By hasty calculation we learn that the
per centage of soldiers furnished in "the
times that tried mems souls tx. the entire
population was as follows:
New Hampshire, nearly 9 per cent.
Massachusetts, including Maine, little
over IA per cent.
Rhode Island, nearly 81 per cent.
Connecticut, not quite 133 per cent.
New York, a little over 81 per cent.
New Jersey, nearly per cent
Pennsylvania. nearly per cent
Delaware, little over per cent.
Maryland, a little over Al per cent.
Virginia, a little over 81 per cent
North Carolina, not quite per cent.
South Carolina, little over % per cent.
Georgia, not quite per cent.
The average per centage of all is little
over 6 1-6 per cent.
1t is true that they We're nearly all slave
holding States, but the present inhabitants,
as a general thing, are descended in direct
line from the people who then populated the
above States, with this difference in favor
of the North, that since, there has been a
vast Infusion of the forei gn element into
the Northern States, which is by inelina-
ton and training, fighting element.
If it is said that the negro slaves formed
large part Of the Southern population,
and are counted in the table as such, it can
be replied that there were also negro slaves
in the North and also that black soldiers
were called into requisition to considera-
BILE extent in the South
We mention these facts only to remove a
general Impression among our Southern
friends that the Northern people are all
non-combatants and towards, and that, rath-
er than defend their rights, they will endure
any amount of bullying God forbid that
the courage of either section should be put
to the testI No rejecting man, well ac-
quaihted with The two people, doubts that
both have an abundance of grit. Only
Southeruers vino never come North, and
Northerners who never go South both iE-
norant of history-doubt the ability of
the other people, respectively, in the field.

that the section which particularly plumes
itself on its proves and readiness to fight
