ARTEMUs WARD ON REoRoANIzATIoN-
Artemus Ward, in recent letter, thus gives an
idea of reorganization
81 have never attempted to reorganize my
wife but once. shall never attempt il again.
I'd bin to q public dinner, and had allowed my
self to be betrayed iu drinking several peoples
health, and make 'em as robust as possible, /
continued drinking their health until my own
became affected. The consequences vas pre-
sented myself at Betsey's bedside, late at night,
with considerable liker concealed about my
persen. had somehow got posseshun ofeA
hosswhip on my way home. Remembering
some cranky observations of Mrs Wards In the
morning, l snapt the whip pretty lively, and in
loud voice said, "Betsey, you need reorgaui-
ziDg. have come, Betsey," cOntiDued--
crackin' the whip DER the bed-'1 have come
TO reorgauize you y
That pite dreamed that somebody laid

VIRGINIA.--The United States District
Court for the Eastern District of Virginia met
recently at Alexandra, for the first timessince
the war commenced. Judge John G. Under
wood presided. District Attorney L. Ii. Chan
dler, on opening the court, made a speech con-
graduating the court and the country on the
conclusion Of the war, and urged Cancellation in
all matters relating to the confscatien of prop
erty. Judge Underwood coincided in the
views expressed BY the District Attorney and
ordered that 10 all cases where pardons had
been granted and the amnesty oath taken, save
those excepted under the Presidents proclama-
ton, the suits should be dismissed on payment
of costs.
In conformity with this order number of
persons came forward and paid their costs, and
proceedings against them will be drop ped. This,
in effect, is renunciation of confsca ton in
Virginia; and is n accordance with decara-
tion made short time ago by District Attorney
Chandler, that he had received orders to- dis
continue all confscations. This course 'undoubte
edly receives the sanction of the highest author
ity.

Has~ A military order has been issued 10
Georgia commanding Postmasters not to deliver
letters to persons who have not taken the oath
of amnesty. The Rome Courier says letter
was received at the post Office in that place for
young lady, addressed to the care Of her father
The 3oung lady had not taken the oath of ale
glance, and still refused to do so, but her father
had, and demanded the letter on the ground
that it was addressed to bis care, The Post
MASTER declined delivering it on the grounds
that it would have been an evasion Of tha orders,
and would not have bean justi6able in doing So
under the existing circumstances. The point
made and referred to the General for his
decision The following is his reply:
Headquarters Department of Georgia, !
Augusta, Sept. l3, 1865.
Respectfully returned to the Postmaster nc
Rome, Ga, through military channels: The
letter will not be delivered until the orders of
the Military Commander of the Department are
complied with. Parties not alien ctizens) Who
cannot comply with the laws of the country will
prepare themselves to leave the. country.
By command of Mejor- General Steedman. =

EcLIpsE.-Au eclipse of the sun will take
place on Thursday October 10, and will be visi-
BILE in several of the United States. At the
time of the observation the sun will be very
near the earth, while the moon will be at its
greatest distance, and hence the apparent diam
eter of the moon will be much less than that<of
the sun, and the middle Of the ring unusually
great.
