The New York Tribune, reviewing the
out cry that the fall Of prices should b
gradual, says:
"But let the fall in prices be gradual" it b
urged. So Il will be, we presume but II
were better not to be so. For the farmers OF
our country are to-day required TO pay for
labor prices that must subject them to serious
ioss-they making the crops Of 1855 at green.
hack urices, and selling them At gold prices.
So those who would gladly build houses In
cities are obliged to pay greenback prices for
iahor and materials, and sell or rent the
houses. when completed, at gold prices; and
This deters thousands from building, as II
ought Journeymen and laborers say with
resSon We must have high wages, because
everything is dear; but this will not enable
the house -owner to command Corresponding
rents next fall or springer vii! only ehect
this by reducing the erection OF new tene.

coming right down to rock bottom would DC

CHANGED Hrs MIND.-Governor Bran
letts Of Kentucky is exhibiting great and
gratifying change in his views on the
slavery question. Two or three years
ago, he was so radically opposed to the
doctrine of emancipation thatit was feared
that his feelings would carry him over to
the seeessionists. To-day he talks to his
friends in this language: "Slayery in
kentucky is actually dead, and all that
remains is, that you in your sphere, and I
in mine, do what we can to make the
present situation the source of as little
hurt and as much good as possible to both
white and black" The telegraph last
week informed US that Governor Bran
lstte had presented free papers to all his
dawes

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER.-lt is be-
lieved that General Grant has received the
surrender of more large armies than any
other General known in modern history
most of the army that defended Fort Dom
elson, the army that defended Vicksburg,
the army that defended Richmond, and
finally the army under Johnston. Accord
ing to the length Of time he has been in
service, he has undoubtedly fought more
battles-as wen as been more generally
successful than any other General known
in history. BE is justly entitled to be
ranked as the greatest General Of modern
times, and has faithfully deserved the I'M
dying gratitude and esteem of his fellow
countrymen.

ALL GU1IrY.-The Mining.an Scien-
tiHc Press, in its article upon the assassin
alton, thus afixes the brand Of guilt upon
al, who, by word or deed, have given aid
and comfort to the rebellion:
"whether directly engaged in the foul
conspiracy or not, NO man North or South,
who has ever raised his arm in reasonable
conflict, or his voice in even distant sym
patty Herewith, can say, Ibid it not;
for inasmuch a. ever sinner cruciheth
Christ afresh by his sin, so every traitor
who has struck blow and every one who
has expressed the most distant sympathy
With this aecursed rebellion, points the
daorer and bufles the lead anew in the
BODY OF him who alone stood between the
traitor and retributive justice.

THE NEWS.

The Overland Telegraph wires are be-
loved to be down to-day, and no later
nsw, has come to hand than what ap-
D.sred in the Virginia Union this morning.
The rebels in all directions are surrender
ing and taking the amnesty oath. Moseby
and Morgan's guerrillas have surrendered,
and appearances indicate that even that
.pecies of warfare has ceased. The war
is actually closed. The War Department
20 regards it, and has discharged $4,000
recruits and taken other steps to reduce
the expenditures.
1t appears that the final surrender Of
Johnston was made to Sherman, and that
the former did not know of the presence
Of Grant until all was concluded, when
the modest Lieutenant-General quietly
stepped forward and endorsed his appro-
val on the document! As soon as notified
that the terms before agreed upon were
not satisfactory to the Government, john
Ston frankly acknowledged the war ended
and that it was madness to continue it
longer. He quickly accepted the same
terms given to Lee, and closed the capitu-
lation without waiting for the expiration
Of the armistice. He expressed his belief
that when the people of the South learned
that his own and Lees forces had surren-
dered, all would acquiesce in the change
and cease further opposition. As an earn
est Of his sincerity and of his desire to
stop further bloodshed, he allowed and
facilitated the use of the telegraph BY
Sherman through his lines to communi-
cate with Wilson and other Union Gen.
erals. In fact, the two armies were sixty
miles apart when the capitulation took
place, and ample opportunities existed for
the escape of the greater part Of his men
by dispersion instead of surrendering;
but he was determined TO end the war
then and there and stop the further devas-
tanon of the country and loss Of life in a
hopeless contest. The facts also show, as
we said the other day they would, that
Sherman Inexperienced the sentiment
of the North in relation to the proper
terms of surrender; that he regarded the
arrangement as in fact securing peace to
the country, and he felt inclined to be
lenient toward them in spirit of magma
nimity. His motives are above suspicion.
It seems that Johnston regarded it as end
ing the war, and that he acted in good
faith and honorably.

ALMOST AN INDIAN WAR.

A verdant servant maid, just over from
Dutchland, doing work for . boarding
house keeper (Mrs. BurnS), near the Sum
NIT Mill, IN Virginia, laid the foundation
for good, healthy, savage riot on satur-
day last. 1t appears that it was near the
hour of dining, near the appointed mid
die of the day, when this aforementioned
servant maid, named Jane Tor as near that

obstinately long stick of wood in the

ENGLISH 'BANx1urrs.-The resolution

now that the rebel leaders are placed hor'

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

The Honorable and Reverend Henry w.
Hilliard, formerly member of Congress
from Alabama, and now, it seems, citizen
of Georgia, made sensible speech to the
people of Richmond county, in that State,
June "a. He says he opposed the rebellion
or revolution" as he styles it, but when
the State decided to join the revolt, ne give
in his adhesion and support to The Southern
cause. He was, however, among the first
men OF the State who discovered that the
rebellion was failure; and to counsel
return to peace. He advises the people to
acquiese cheerfully in the result of the
struggle; and to return to their allegiance
to the United States. Slavery, he says, is
dead, and must be SO treated. He would
have preferred more gradual plan of
emancipation; but the question is settled,
and its no use to dwell upon what might
haye been better course. The following
patriotic remarks will exhibit the temper of
the address:
"The South will now, sir, not grudgingly,
but freely and cheerfully acknowledge this
as our whole 'country-from the St. Law
renee to the Gulf of Mexico, and from the
Atlantic to t. Pacific. This do, sir.
| wish to have no holding back; no such
swearing eternal vengeance against the
Government as Hamilcar made his son Han
nibal swear against Rome.
would have no heart-burnings on the
part of the South; do not doubt that the
great body of the people of the South will
be true to the government Of the United
States.
| Such is our country To-day. sir-a great
country, with glorious future-if we be
true TO ourselves. It's wise; you will agree
with me, sir, not to seek to quarrel with
the North; henceforth we are Americans
Americans at the North-American at the
South-Americans at the East-Americans
at the West-everywhere Americans, re.
cognizing common country and q great
Government. There will be, believe, an
earnest and general purpose to stand by
that great Government"
