DISLOYALTY.
Hyde Park, April ii, 1865.

Since the landing on Plymouth rock,
the country has never been so terribly
shocked as at the tragedy at Washington.
The nation has never had such occasion
to mourn over the wretcbedness of man.
But in the midst of this mourning
there are some men who arc not ashamed
{ are they susceptible of shame ? to re-.
joice over the assassination of tie Presi.
dent. ."".
There may be some old men whose long
cherished prejudices may have led them
to wish that all who would 60 to defend
the land against an inveterate foe, might
fall. and now rejoice over the fall Of the
president. But gray hairs and trem-
blings of age are not an excuse for the
outburstiug of such fieudish delight, and
they only render themselves hateful in
the eyes of men, and an object of pity.
mingled with necessarily suppressed con.
tempt on the part q those who are com
PEELED to listen to their traitorous remarks.
But what language is adequate to ex-
press the contempt, which ought to be in
the minds of the loyal. when they hear a
man in the EXCISE of reason and in tho
prime of life rejoicing, or uttering words
of commentator because of the assassin
alton of the president If men approve Of
the act, would they not have done it, il
they had not been towards? But now
they stink away into covert aud let out
their dastardly fetid bile over nations
woe. Why have they not had the cour.
age to show their snaky flag and join
their real brethren the assassinators
They are with them in spirit, why not in
deed If any are pleased with the shoot
ing Of the president and stabbing Seward,
his son aud nurse. would they not have
had hand in the bloody affair but for
the fear Of justice ? They have put a
mark on themselves. more distinguishing
than that Of Cain. which all the cosmet.
les of political composition can never re-
move. @ l.i4tae I5'Hs qt % Q

&We have received from the Publish
er Horace Waters, 4sl Broadway N. I.
several pieces Of new music. The follow
ing notice Of Mrs. Parkhurst's new song
"a Home on the Mountain" which is
among the number. is from the Home
Journal. 1t embodies a just tribute to
the lady's genus
1--WE heard the aboye-named ballad
sung, recently. and we're quite charmed
with it. 1t is melodious and beautiful
composition. 1t is written in G, and has
all that sparkling vivacity in arrangement
of the notes that is so necessary for a
spirited song. 1t must become one Of the
most popular of Mrs. Parkhurst's works.
While speaking OF this lady, we cannot
help remarking that she is meeting with
singular success as musical composer.
Her works are sought for with as much
eagerness as the writings of any of our
native composers, and they sell as rapidly,
at the present time, as Stephen G. Fosters
To what is she Indebted for this success?
How can it be accounted for ? Very easily.
Mrs Parkhurst, naturally, has wonder
fully fine musical talents, and has the
faculty of expressing her thoughts happi-
ly. While she pays every regard to mu.
sic as fine art, and treats it scientific
ally aud classica!ly. she, at the same
time, makes it simply beautiful. Her
writings are easily played aud readily
understood by those who have not re-
ceived the highest musical education.
Her compositions advance the musical eda-
c'tion and taste, while they also please
the ear. This happy combination, then
is the secret of the popularity she has
earned and the reputation she is achiev.
ing Let any one try the song under con-
sideration, "A Home on the Mountain"
and test the truth of our remarks. We
have dwelt upon the subject because we
think it worthy the attention of compo-
scrs in general"

PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

The movements of the Q. s. forces have
been mostly confined to the army Of Gen.
Sherman, who. at last accounts had been
negotiating with the rebel Johnston, com
mander of the confederate forces in North
Carolina. 1t seems that an armistice OF
tcn days duration was agreed upon, during
which time arrangements were made for
the surrender of that rebel army. The
agreement was something like this: The
regiments composing Johuston's army
were to march to their respective state cap
itols and there deposit their arms and
munitions of war; and other stipulations,
one of which was, 1.-The people and in
habitants of all states to be guaranteed,
50 far as the executive can, their political
right aud franchise. as well as their right
of person and property as defined BY the
constitution Of the United States and Of
the respective states" In general terms,
the war to cease, a general amnesty so far
as the executive power Of the Of the Uni
ted States can command. or on condition
Of the disarmament Of the confederate ar
mics and the distribution of arms and the
resumption Of peaceful pursuits by the Of.
fcers and men hitherto composing said
armies.
The matter was submitted to the off.
cials at Washington for their approval,
which was not granted for the reason that
Sherman had no power to negotiate on
those terms. and that the measure recog.
nized the existence of their government,
and that by allowing them to keep their
arms when they we're accessible to them
in case of another revolt was quite iDju-
dicious. Gen. Grant has gone to North
Carolina, it is supposed, for the purpose
of arranging the matter.
Mosby has not surrendered yet, tho
it has been 30 reported. He proposes to
surrender on the same terms as those Of
fered to Johnston.
