PHILADELPHIA, June 10.
The quarreIs about reconstruction in Virginia
have at length fully developed themselves.
John Minor Bolts, Alexander II. Rives, aud
many other distinguished Virginians have come
out in opposition to Pierpout's government.
Bolts, Rives, and others on the 18Th of June
waited on the President at Washington, and
laid their grievances before him. They strenu-
ously object to Pierpont's entire system of re-
constructing the State, and wish the same sys-
tenn pursued as is marked out in the proclama-
tons appointing governors for Mississippi and
North Carolina. They say there is no reason
why Virginia ahould be treated differently from
her sister States that they have no objection
to Pierpont being the governor but that they
do most decidedly object to being governed by
a dQgus State Legislature, elected by soldiers,
under a Constitution framed at Alexandria by
a convention of only IL men. They desire in
structions to be sent to Pierpont commanding
him to call State Convention in the same
manner as is prescribed for Mississippi and
North Carolina, and they will abide by the
rules made by that Convention. They also want
the law by which the State of West Virginia
was created annulled. Pierpont also wishes
this, and there is very little doubt that the ma

Tie Haytian Republic has followed the
example set by their neighbours on the
continent. An attempt at revolution was
made ea'ly in May, and Turin Salnave
procIaiuls the separation Of the North
from The South in the City of Cape Hal
tien, the chief town of the North, of
which he has taken possession with the
cOnnlvanCe Of the authorities, and the
treason of The General in command of the
Department. 1t is a repetition on a small
er scale OF the proceedings which have
just ended in the san9ujnary conflicts at
Richmond, The assassination Of President
Lincoln, and the capture and pending
trial of Jefferson Davis the Southern
chief. On the 10Th President Geffrard
issued the following proclamation which
we copy from The Martinique Propagatem
Of 18th June =
"Haitiens, a man already condemned
for an Infamous attempt at rebellion,
which The inhabitants Of Cape IIaijien
have themselves rypreSsed with a loyal
and sincere lndlgnation-a man condemn
ed for an assassin by the public sentiment,
who offers no other pledges but the au-
dacious energy of his passions and of his
yengeance,-Turin S~alnave, has dared
again TO raise the flag of revolt against
the Government OF 22nd December,
against that government which delivered
you from tyranny in the midst of the ac-
CARNATIONS of the whole Havtien people.
After having prepared under the protec-
ton of a culpable forhearance, outside of
our territory and aided by a band of adj
veuturcrS and strangers, his criminal en-
terprisP, Turin Sail ave surprised during
night, the town Of Ouanaminthe, Fort
Liberte and Trou. EmboIdencd by
these successes, he pushed his audacity
to the extent of presenting himself at the
gates Of the first city of the North De-
partment-the Cape. | say it with grief
and regret. Turin Salnave entered this
city without firing a shot, from which he
escaped as a fugitive, scarcely S months
before under sentence for assassination
Justly merited in the Judgment of all hon
est citizens. And in this city he found
accomplices who no doubt expected him,
devoured by ambition, and treading I'M
der foot their duties and most sacred
oaths, have consented to become the as
s~ociates of his enterprise, to give it the
sanction of their names, and thus 10 haz-
ard the independence, nationality and fu-
ture Of our country.

tariIy sacrificed to his Unsuitable ambition

the miseries which must ensue from it.

From the New York "Christim Advocate and
Journal"
THE AMERICAN INSTITUTION.

THE Grover 4 Baker Sewing Machine has
special claims to public attention, as very su-
peror and valuable assistant in household in
dustry. That this machine has made thousands
of friends, who attest its superiority over every
thing else can not be doubted; and IL is claimed
that it is only necessary to REASON upon its pc
culiarities to enable any person to appreciate
its advantages in the family over any other one
in use. What these advantages are claimed to
be, we propose briefly to state, that a COMPARE
SON may be drawn between the Grover a Baker
and other machines:
l. It makes the only seam formed by sewing
machine in which each stitch is independently
locked, and without dependence upon the other
stitches for strength.
2. 1t makes the only seam that will admit of
the thread being cut at every fourth stitch with
out injury to the seam in wear.
3. 1t is unnecessary to fasten the ends of
seams made by this machine This is done by
the machine itself, without the use of the hand
needle.
a. The Grover a Baker stitch is the only one
formed from two ordinary spools, and without
winding from the spool into the shuttle from
three to FIVE times for the under thread.
5. A seam thus formed Is more elastic than
any other made by a sewing machine, and is
very valuable in all goods that are to be washed
and stretched under the iron.
8. The machine is adapted to all varieties of
fabrics, sewing each equally well, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind of sewing other
than the adoption of needles and thread.
T. IL is more easily kept in order than any
other machine, and need not 10 be taken apart
to be oiled.
8. The machine sews common spool cotton,
silk, and linen thread with equal facility.
o. The machine is so simple that an intelli-
gent child of ten years can readily learn to OPP
crate and keep il in order.
10. BY reason of its simplicity of construc-
