observation during the war, and from the hest
testimony In the Investigation he is making at
Norfolk on the subject Of Trade, he Is OF the opfn
Ion that its Continuance Is simply TO- supply the
rebel army with subsistence, that 1t Is OF no
earthly service to the United St,tes, but m ire

good to the Inhabitants for whose benefit to

These opinions Of military men, which have
been referred to, have been fully confirmed BY the
opinion Of naYh otaccra whose testimony has
been had.
The committee recommend the repeal or the
eighth section OF the act approved July 2, 1854,
which authorized the Secretary Of the Treasury,
With the approval Of the Prestdcnt. to appolnt
agents to purchase for the United Stateh any pro-

Sign.

One Of the most remarkable signs of the
times is the character of the two proclama-
tons put forth by the Confederate Gen. Lee,
near the last of January. he had just been
made Generalissimo Of all the Confederate
forces, and was evidently intending or wish
ing, by these proclamations, to bring about
snch new condition of things, as the exigen-
cies of their military position would admit
The first one opens with some sounding ex-
pressions about the "new campaign" and the
achievements to be undertaken. But the prin-
cipal part OF it is on much lower key. Ihave
taken the pains to analyze it. 1t fills up
space OF sixty one lines of a newspaper col.
umn' Ihirty-three of these lines, or more
tuan one-half, are taken up with appeals and
tnreats 10 deserters from the rebel armies inn
ploring tnem with the usual entreaties to re-
turn to their places, aad threatening them
with the withdrawal of ali forgiveness If tbav
do not.
The other is proclamation of nearly eoual
length, on the subject of increasing the efIec-
tveness OF their cavalry force, and is almost
entirely taken up with requests and directions
to the people of the rebel States, to bring for
ward and give up, for the public service, such
cavalry weapons as they may have in their
private possession! in order that this force
may be suitably equipped for their duty.
When the chief rebel commander is reduced
to this extremity, that he cannot reinforce his
armies except by vain appeals to deserters,
and cannot arm his cavalry except by begging
weapons from private persons, it would seem
as though the end was not far of-and that
the North would not need much longer to pay
heavy bounties for recruits. x.

The Boston Trade Sale.

The great Trade Sale at the spacious sales
rooms of Messrs. Jordan, Marsh & Co., Bos-
ton, opened on Tuesday, and proved very
decided success. John 81. Osgood was the
auctioneer, assisted by Andrew Mount of
New York, and Charles E. Stevens of Phila-
delphia, two distinguished knights of the
hammar.
The sale commenced at IL noon, and at In
the evening adjourned till the next morning.
ding spirited. The number of lots sold the
hrst day was 1896. The following were the
conditions of the sale:
Cloths, cassimeres, satinets, fannels and for
eign goods, four months credit for all sums
over $500, for approved endorsed notes, or
four per cent discount for cash; American
cottons and linens, over $500, thirty days
credit. All bills under $500, cash on delivery.
Where notes are given, settlement to be made
within ten days. Claims for damage, varia-
ton or deficiencies to be made within three
days. ANY goods disagreeing with the sam
pies, the whole lot to be returned, unless an
allowance can be mutually agreed upon. The
widths, sizes and descriptions of goods copied
from the invoices, but not warranted.
During the second day the crowd was I'M
diminished and the bidding was spirited. The
sale opened promptly at nine o'clock in the
morning, and continued till half past seven in
the evening, when the last lot, numbered 1000,
was reached and knocked off.
Refreshments were served in an upper
room of the warehouse in which the sale was
held, to which all bidders who requested re-
ceived tickets of free admission.
Several Portland houses were represented
among the active bidders. The Boston i'd
vertiser winds up a long article on this sale as
follows:
"Thus ended a sale, which, for the large
quantity Of goods disposed of. the prices re-
ceived, and the interest manifested, has not
been surpassed in this country, and its infiu.
ence In the entire business community will be
felt. 1t will tend to make our merchants, far
and near, better acquainted with each other,
and on better terms, and to introduce goods
which would have only local trade into 9TH
er markets."

GEN. &C. WAsHnt7pN-Tb;s oon,,o,

GEN. c. G. WAsHBURN.-Tbis gentleman
son Of our own State, and brother of Elk.
Governor Washburn, of this city, has recently
been in command Of the military district which
includes Memphis and Vicksburg, but has lust
been ordered to new field of duty. In no.
ticing this change and his departure from his
old command, the Ficksbusa Daily Herald
says:
"There is universal feeling of regret here
at the loss OF General Washburn. During the
short time he has been in Vicksburg, he has
won golden opinions from all sorts of peo
ple," and no commander ever went from
amongst US carrying with him larger nor
ton OF The esteem and affection Of the people
than Gen. Washburn. A thorough gentleman
in heart and in paactice, official intercourse
with him was as pleasant and agreeable as it
was possible for courtesy to make it. Though
daily annoyed by thousands of applications
entirely inconsistent with his duties to grant,
General Washburn was always kind and re-
speetful IN language, and tender of the feel
ings OF those who presented themselves hsfore
him, Blending ia happy hammer, the decis-
ion of the soldier with tue blandness of a
friend, he won the admiration Of all with
whom business or social intercourse threw him
in contact.

Four Years Work.

The original term of Mr.. Lincoln's admins
tratien lacks yet some days of completion, but
it is interesting to note how well the TASK
which he set himself at its outset, has been iui-
filed. The firm though modest DECLARATION
that he would esteem it his duty 10 "repossess
and hold" the forts, arsenals ana otner prop
erty Of the limited States unlawfully In the
possession of the insurgents, has been MADE
good. 1t was task that sounded simple in
the statement, though it has developed glgan-
tic proportions in the process OF accomplish
ment. How many OF those forts ofthe United
States, so treacherously obtained, are now in
rebel handsp The flag that four years ago
went down in smoke and fame upon the ram
parts of Sumter, rises again over those black
ened, ruined walls, and the traitorous Gener-
al who turned the guns ofseven thousand men
upon the heroic seventy beleagured there is
fleeing in terror before the approach OF the
government arms. The last of the forts is
'srepossessed," and not all the strength remain
ing in the shattered and tottering rebellion
can prevent the "holdiag' of it. Where now
are the shouts Of derisive laughter with which
four years ago the rebel congress greeted the
first message of the President? Where, too, is
the insolent confidence of those northern SYM
pathizers with and aiders of rebellion who
secuted at the possibility of subduing the "war-
like South" Echo answers, where? 1t is long
since the rebel government has felt itself in
laughing mood. 1t has found that the power
of free government cannot safely be defied /;
that that power, welded by the hand of a man
it affected to despise, is able to crush the last
spark of life out of its quivering body, and
leave it the scorn OF the world whose moral
sense it chose to set at raugat. 1t was pecu-
liarly fitting that the last days OF the present
administration should be rendered illustrious
by the reduction of that city where the work
of rebellion began. 1t affords a suitable ter
mination to four years term of gigantic eff
fort and of heroic accomplishmeut,-he
both as regards its material and its moral VIC
tories,-and it seems to give an earnest that
the deadly work of war which has been its
peculiar task is virtually completed and that
the business of the next four years win be the
happier though scarcely less difficult labor oil
quietlng, harmonizing and restoring to order
the elements of national strength. If the next
presidential term shall exhibit in this new field,
results as grand as those we look back upon
in the one just past, 1t will be indeed Illus
trious; and history in recording its glories
will find no name more worthy to be held in
grateful and enduring remembrance than that
Of Abraham Lincoln.
