TIE CoPpERHEAD CAUCUS.

AAAA NOA Z AS3AkAk4AD ~<A1NNSs
We are informed by telegraph that the
x'democratic" md conservative members Of
Congress held q caucus, and among otherpro"
ceedings passed the following resolution: :
Reso'ntd. That the Presidents prccln1nat9n o.
Revolutionary and unconstitutional and u there
fore disapproved.
If any class Of people should take excep-
tions to the amnesty proclamation 1t Is the
radicals, not the copperhcads The real OBJ
lection to urge against the amnesty Is, that 1t
Offers altogether too liberal terms to the reb-
els and traitors. 1t allows them to recover
their forfeited privileges as citizens on condi-
lions far too cheap and easy. It is certainly
not unconstitutional to grant an amnesty,
nor is 1t Revolutionary" to do 90.
Whether 1t were "unwise and ine1pcdient ~
are fairly debatable questions to be tested
and proven by actual trial, and not otherwise.
If the amnesty causes large masses Of rebels
to return to their allegiance :; If It causes the
common people Of the Confederate States to
grow dissatisfied with rebel rule; If 1t pro-
NOTES, desertion from their armies, and In
duccs the masses to resist or escape conscrip-
4iou, then it may be fairly claimed that twas
wise and expedient to issue it. The most Sc
rious objection raised to the amnesty Is, the
offer to restore property to the rebels, which
is contended to be = violation Of the Confs'
cntion act Many good citizens think the
President has gone too far and has oyerstcp'
ped the bounds Of his legal authority, when
he undertakes to set aside that Law, and put
t1aitors in possession Of plantations and per.
sonal effects which they have justly forfeited
and which On act Of Congress directs the Ex'
ecutirc to seize and sell for the benefit Of The
National treasury. But It is not this feature
OF the amnesty to which the copperhead eau
Gus objected. It Is the part wherein be 1e'
euires the rcpentant rebel to acknowledge
thc freedom Of the slavcs emancipatcd by the
proclamation of january l, 1868, aud by tas
ac,s OF Congress. This caucus OF dousghiaee
fanatics still hope to saye slavery, whether
the rebellion be put down or not. "Nigge1

A MAMMOTH P1G-THE BIGGEST EVER
FAr7ED.-Theze is now In New York hog,
three years old last April, raised by John ".
Copcman, In Cayugga county, md iatted to its
present enormous size By 4 B. Benham, Of
Dryden, Tompkins county, New York. This
hog, in May, 1868, weighed l, 10 pounds. In
September he weighed ], ,249 pounds. In Oc-
tober l ,276 pounds. In December he weighed
1,s40 pounds, and has been growing rapidly
since, and VIII probably weigh 1,4o0 pounds
to-day. 1t is to be hoped that the owner viii
be able to make arrangements to have this
monster publicly exhibited before he is made
into pork. His breed is cross Of Leicester
and Suffolk with slight CROSS Of Berkshire.
