Political Status of the Blacks.

The "New England Loyal Publication
Society" having addressed a circular to
the Albany Ecening Journal Republican)
asking of the editor to know "what is the
feeling in your neighborhood in regard to
the admission of the freed blacks to the
rights of citizenship" he honestly replies
in the Journal of late date that "the
feeling is that the country had better de-
vote itself to one thing at time; that
while we have gigantic war on our hands,
and as an incidental to it the destruction
Of slavery, we had better leave the ques-
ton Of the political status of the negro
alone. If we succeed in securing him his
freedom by the time the rebellion is put
down, we shall be doing pretty we'll" rt

We print elsewhere an official copy of
the amended Enrichment Act. It will be
seen by the last section that it takes effect
Immediately. Section IA is the most i'm
portant In the act, and it's execution viii
seriously disturb the present system Of
filling quotas through agencies established
at the headquarters of the various enroll
ment boards. It declares that all volun-
teers, substitutes representatives or other
wise shall be credited where such persons
belong by actual residence, or where they
were or shall be enrolled; but towns can
not, under the present or future calls, claim
credits for men already enlisted to the
credit of other towns. The cities cannot
fill their quotas from the country nor can
country towns fill theirs from the cities.

The Old Man OF wisoon.in.

The Wisconsin story about man one
hundred and thirty years old, now living
in that State, has been noticed. The
Madison (Wisconsin) Journal publishes
additional evidence to show that bis age
is as great as it was represented. 1t says:
"We have q further item of testimony to
add in support of the extreme old age of
Mr.. Orele. A few weeks since, Mr.. B. W.
Brisboia, of Prairie du Chen, United States
Assessor of the Third District, was in our
office, and happened to. speak Of the re-
markable longevity of Circle. Mr.. Brisbeis
belongs to one of the old French families
of the Northwest, and was born in this
State. He is one of the younger mem
bers of large family of children, and
must be now in the vicinity of isixty years
Of age. He stated that since child he
has known Crele, and that the latter, as
he has often heard mentioned in the fami-
ly, carried (Brisboiss) grandmother, then
an infant, to church in his arms when she
was christened. That incident occurred
considerably over hundred years ago."

Isaiah and Andy johnson ct al.


The telegraph informs us, with oracular
brevity, that " the President on Saturday
took the oath of Office with his hand on
the open Bible, according to custom. Mr..
MIDDLETON, the Clerk of the Supreme
Court, had opened it, but without pre-
meditation, at the 9Th chapter of Isaiah. +"
The chapter referred to contains the fol-
lowing eminently appropriate verses:
CONCERNING ANDY JOHNSON. ,a.. ..,
IL. Wo unto them that rise up early in the
morning, that they may follow strong drink
that continue until night, that wine infame
them. t4a..
On THE INAUGURATION BALL.
IL. And the harp, and the viol, and the tabret,
the pipe, and wine are in their feasts; but they
regard not the work of the Lord, neither con-
slider the operation of his hands.
13. Therefore my people are gone into cap
tivity, because they have no knowledge and
their honorable men are famished and their
multitude dried up with thirst.
IA. Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and
opened her mouth without measure, and their
and he that rejoiceth shall descend into It
WITH REGARD TO sHoDDY.
8. W0 unto them that join house to house,
that lay field to field, till there be no place,
that they may be placed alone in the midst of
the earth.
ANDY JOHNsON AGAIN.
70. Wo unto them that are mighty to drink
wine, and men of strength to mingle strong
drink.
%. Which justify the wicked for reward,
and take away the righteousness OF the right
eous from him.
