The President Proving Himself.

Last Friday the members of the late
North Carolina Convention held an in.
terview with President Johnson. Hon.
Mr.. Reed, in behalf of the members Of
the Convention, addressed the Presi-
dent. He said the Secession Ordinance
had been pronounced nullity that
the rebel debt had been pronounced lille
gal and void, and that slavery he'd been
prohibited. He said the people were
submissive and well disposed, and anx-
ious for fraternal relations, and request
ed the President to declare that the
State had done her part, and that her
relations with the Government were
restored. He complained of the test
oath and said there were few men in
the State who could take it. The peo-
pie of North Carolina felt that the re-
quirements of the test oath would work
q grievous wrong, and Mr.. Reed urged
that 1t should be repealed by Congress.
The following is a portion of the
Presidents reply:
Hon. Mr.. Reed: l received from you, with
81 of the G Con-
SiS the spirit in which =;
Carolina has done much and will do much to-
ward restoring that state to her proper and
to be done to render that restoration immedi-
ately practicable. An acceptance Of the Con-
throughout the U. s., by the Legislature Of the
State of North Carolina, Is, in my Judgment
practically important to the successful resto-
ration which is SO much desired by all. With
out answering specifically the, questions you
have proposed TO me, twill be sufficient to say
that my action must depend on events, and
that Mr.. Holden will be again instructed to
continue the exercise of his functions as Pro-
visional Governor until he shall have been
expressly relieved by orders to that effect.

customary to furnish members with good gold

authorized and requested to furnish each men,
Der Of this House with good gold pen and .
good pen-knife.
We do not desire to find fault with
Hildreth's grammar, but really we do
not think 1t has been customary to fur
nish members with gold pen-knives, as
stated in his preamble. But however
that may be, Hildreth ought to have
followed up the above characteristic
resolution with another, wherein the
Secretary of State should have been in.
strlcted to have procured Hon. A. B. F.
new and becoming coat, that on his
return to his fond and admiring con.
stituency he might the more favorably
impress them with his Importance
That the House was on the eve of ad
journment would have rendered the
resolution more forcible.
Hildreth was seriously vexed becaust
he did not get q pen and . knife. HI,
couldn't curb his natural disposition t.
do q mean and dirty thing, 90 two day
after the cruel destruction of his hopes
he gave himself some slight comfort by
causing to be placed on the Journal tn
following silly resolution, which wa
laid on the table without ceremony:
Resolved By he Aouse Of Representatives, n
Senate conctiTring, That the piachbeck pens an,
penholders furnished the members Of thi
General Assembly, be returned to the Censu
Board with the request that they be deposite,
In the room of the State Historical Socisty .
Iowa City, as lasting memorials Of the yirtu
and economy of said Board, and Of the lott
General Assembly.
Now, this last resolution is very mucl
like the item with which this article i
headed. The resolution and the item
were both produced in troubled stat
of Hildreth's mind.

We four above mentioned saw Mr.. Warren

two ounces Of nice toilet soap from tho
Ingredients that cost 674 cents, making
the cost less than seven cents per pound.
The soap 10 made ut q cost of from two to
nine cents per pound, and made in from six
to ten minutes time. s.......... -. ..
Ladies and Gentlemen are invited. to call

solD1ERs WELcosE.- Nearly every coun-
~ or town Of any size, or Importance, in the
State have given, or contemplate giving the
soldiers who went from their portion Of the
country q reception Of some kind or another !;
yet up to thepresent time, nothing has been
done by the citizens Of Stearns county to-
wards movement of this kind. There are
no soldiers more deserving OF compliment
of this character, than those who went from
Stearns and Benton counties, and some of
our citizens have urged US to bring the mat
ter before the people of these counties At
once.
Harvest Is about. over, the people now
have ample time to devote themselves to the
work. All those surviving soldiers who en-
listed from the two counties will soon be at
home, and it will be shame upon thu peo-
pie if some betting acknowledgement Of
their past services is not at once made. In
connection with this, it il suggested that
the citizens Of st. Cloud lead off in the
matter, -. assurances have been given by
those in the country, that any effort We
may make here will be seconded by them.
Let the good work at once begin.

Fatal Railroad Accident.

about one mile west of Columbia in Licking

A Republican Manager Answer
ed by Gen. Sherman-1lis Opin-
ION of Gen, Mcclellan. ..

While General Sherman was stopping at
Groveport in this county, on his way to
Columbus, on the morning of the 18th inst. {,
some of the Republican managers by whom
he was surrounded, resorted to every pos
sible expedient to draw expressions from
him that might be tortured into acquies-
cence in the dogmas-of the Republican par
ty. Several Of those ofhcious busy-bodies
we're very handsomely saubbed by the Gen
cral, for annoying him with their imperti-
nence; but one Of them was answered by
him in manner not at all satisfactory to
the Abolition leaders-and he was let alone
by them during the remainder OF his stay
at Groyeport. The person alluded to in.
dulged in some remarks rejecting severely
on General Mcclellan, and concluded by
asking Sherman what he thoueE Of the
late "Coppelhead candidate for President.
The General strai ghtcned himself up, and,
with warmth, earnestness and emphasis re.
piled, that Mcclellan was one Of the ablest
and best Generals that commanded during
the war; that he had discharged his dut,
faithfully and efficiently until he was re.
moved; and that he (Shermanl had great
respect for his opinions. This answer ot
the Generals disposed of this Abolition in
ouisitor for the remainder OF the day
