Col. Emory, a Maryland9r holding a com
ission in the Regular Army of the Unite
States, in the expectation that his native State
would secede, some time ago resigned Recent
ly he has asked to be reinstated, and has been
restored to his former position in the SERVICE
AS he has given no new evidence of loyalty,
this act of the Government very naturally pro-
yoked anything but pleasant feelings among
many of the officers who had never thought OF
making their devotion to the United States de-
pend upon the loyalty of their native State
and the act itself was severely criticized. Now
we are informed by telegraph. as if to stop all
further cavil, that Gen. Scott approved Of the
restoration of Emory. The telegraph at the
same time gives the information that the release
Of Winans was approved by the same high Off
cial
1t is probable that Gen. Scott is the greatest
general of this age. In the management of
campaign, and the disposition and direction of
troops for battle, he is doubtless unequalled
But does it follow, a matter Of course,
that his judgment in respect to the proper
treatment of traitors is infallible? There
seems to have been thus far a great deal
too much clemency shown to traitors in the vi
entity of Washington. The policy has been,
apparently, to pacify rather than punish them
This course of the Government is certainly open
to criticism, and no mans authority should be
regarded as sufficient to silence all objections -
We are sorry to know that the weight of Gen.
SCOTS great name must be added to those who
counsel mild treatment of captured Rebels, or
who are ready to receive back into favor those
who, having once rebelled and found it wouldn't
pay, ask to be restored to former positions of
rank and influence. If this is to be the policy
all jeff Davis has to do is to ask to be restored
to his seat in the U. S. Senate, and the Govern
ment would at once pardon his offence and re-
ceive him into favor. Rebellion, by this treat
mont, can not only be made safe, but it can be
made actually advantageous to the Rebels. And
this is what we think is now most to be appre-
hended as the result of this war, viz that the
Rebels will gain by a peace all that they have
ever asked for.

The narrow minded bigotry which refuses to
acknowledge the existence of loyalty outside
the Republican party, might possibly have been
tolerated in other times, at PARTY caucuses, when
the interest Of some aspirant for petty Office
was the issue. Huntington Times.
The editor Of the Times used to be Repub-
lican. lie has been at party caucuses, -
often in the interest of some political " aspir-
ant y for Office petty and not SO 8" pc ty."
Was it's narrow minded bigotry " in him then
to be party man? Was he less patriot then
than now Are Democrats more loyal now
than formerly.
The fact that Democrats have not proved
traitors has not changed our opinion of them
at all. We always supposed they were patri-
otto. We differed from them on other grounds
entirely. Ono Of these grounds of difference
was, what policy ought to be pursued by the
General Government in relation to the spread
Of Slavery. Our opinions on that subject re-
main the same as before the war Have the
Democrats changed theirs? When we have ev-
idence that they agree with us on that point,
we shall be ready to vote for them. Until then
we shall have the same objection to their poll
tics We always have had.

VERY KNOWING BEES. Mr. Sandson, of Peru
relates that :-' A few years ago German
got out few hives of bees, an insect formerly
unknown here. The first year he obtained a
plentiful supply of honey, but year by year it
decreased, until now the animals will hardly
collect any. And why? Our climate is SO
equable that flowers can be had all the year
round, and the sagacious animals having discov-
cred this fact, have evidently lost the instinct
OF boarding honey for winter that never
comes"

possible, more varied and interesting table of
contents than usual. Mrs. Stowe continues her
delightful story, " Agnes of Sorrento" Holmes

articles, " The Ordeal by Battle" and 1.-The

throp, who fell in the engagement at Great
Bethel, has melancholy interest as the last ar

soldier whose pen and sword were doing good
service in the cause of his country. A sketch
of the much-mourned Ellsworth with a we'll
deserved tribute to his memory closes the num-
Der. There are other articles written by per-
sons less widely known to the popular reader,
but fully worthy place in the best American
monthly.

The following resolutions on tho State of the
Country, after some discussion of the general
subject, were passed with great unanimity by
the General Convention of Congrega tional
Churches and ministers, recently held at Rut-
land
Whereas, Our General Government is assail-
ed by a fearful rebellion, by which It's integri-
ty and its existence are imperilled; Therefore,
Resolved, That as the Representatives of the
Congregational Churches of Vermont, we pledge
to our Government and its armies our PRAYERS.
our sympa thies and our earnest cooperation in
all suitable ways, to suppress the rebellion and
vindcate tho authority and dignity of our Con-
stitution and Laws over our whole domain.
Resolved, That whereas Slavery, the great
sin and calamity of the Nation, manifestly un-
derlies all the avowed reasons for this rebellion,
and is the bitter root of all our serious internal
difficulties, we shall rejoice, if, in suppressing
the rebellion, God shall cause the institution OF
slavery to fall with it, shall SO break it's pow
er that its speedy extinction shall be made sure.
Resolved, that whatever may be the Issue of
the rebellion, of ITSELF it cannot be regarded as
other than fearful judgement of God upon
US tor our sins as whole nation, and thus it
becomes US to humble ourselves in penitence be-
fore the most high, contessing our Sin and i'm
ploring him speedily to avert from US the awful
sceurge with which he is affecting US and re-
store peace and concord to our whole Union.

earnestly the importance Of going

poses the despotism at Washington,
should cast bis vote for SEPARATION

poses. We must have the aetisn Of

THE WEAKNESS OF TIE SJUTH. -
A new literary paper, just started
in New York, entitled The Age,
says:
Those who thick the South power
less, do not understand her. Ia the
Mexicau War the Southern States
contributed twice as many men as
the North. The South with bel
fields cultivated, and nearly al hsl
work done by negroes, can place al
most her entire population under
arms. In a great emergency, the
Southern States could place 10 the
field a million Of men = the greater

What we are to Vste Upon.

OK the Sth OF June the people Of
Tennessee are called upon to vote
on two questions:
/. For or agairs: the independence
OF Tennessee.
2. For or against the adoption of
the Preyisionsl Gvyerpmen. of the
Confede.ate S.a.es.
The first is plain question, in
volying freedom or slavery. Every
man who loves liberty, and believes
in the right of people to govern
themselves, will vote afirmatively.
The second question is to decide
the future Of Tennessee. Shall she
stand alone, or unite with her sisters
of the South I If you desire the
latter vote in the affirmative. But
mark, this vote is only to adopt the
Provisional Government, not the Per-
.uansnt one. The Provisional Gov
eminent was entered into only for one
year from the 9Th Of February last;
so on the Sih of next February, or
thereafter, Tennessee and all the 9th
erSouthern States can form Perma-
nens Constitution. This is precisely
the way in which the old colonies
united before tbsy formed the present
