THE WOaKING MEN,

Tho noblest men know on earth,
are men whose handsare brown with toll
Who, booked by no ancestral graves,
HsN down the woods aIrd till the soil,
Tho working men, whate'er their task,
Who carve the stone or bear the hod;
They bear upon their honest brows
The royal stamp and seal Of God;
Ana worthier arc theirRlrops OF sweat Ga
Than diamonds In o corunet. D..

And drive the commerce of the main;

General BIair's speech at ~.
Louis

The Hon. Frank Blair made a speech
at the st. Louis Banquet, on the 9th
ult,, in which he explicitly endorsed the
policy of President johnson on the quest
ion of Reconstruction. General Blair
it is well known-although educated in
the jackson school of democracy, was
from the first an undertaking supporter OF
Mr.. Lincoln administration but he now
advocates, with all the ability for which
he is distinguished, the policy of Presiden
Johnson--denouncing the Radicals and
their negro suffrage doctrines, DENYING
the truth of their theory, and severely re-
buking their disorganizing schemes. This
is an indication ofa decided improvement
in the state of political affairs A whole
some conservative sentiment is rapi lily
taking the place of that head,long radi-
calism which plunged our country into
all manner of difficulties. and revives the
almost extinguished hope Of good time
coming" When the former revilers OF
Democratic doctrines, principles and
measures, become their advocates. Demo
Gratis may well congratulate themselves on
the soundness and purity OF their prin-
ciples, and safely predict that the day is
not far distant when these principles will
be again in the ascendant, to cheer and
encourage the friends OF good government
every where.

He gracefully acknowledged the compi-

We call particular attention to the let

War made demand upon the Governor
for some oficsrs who had committed a
murder in Michigan, and are now in the
custody of the civil authorities, to be
tried for the ohfense Stanton wanted them
for court-martial. The Governor refuses
to surrender them, and asserts the supre-

Republican source, we hail it as an en-
couraging sign. The Secretary has found
that State rights are not yet all surrender
