has not the authority, and we are sure
he has not the inclination to pass. Should
he contrary to all right and just expecta-

have an Executive officer in the person

It is known that this gallant and dis
tinguished officer commands this Depart
ment, having his Head Quarters at Bal
timore. 1t is gratifying to see that he
also, in common with SO many Of the
best patriots in the land, has taken his
stand in support Of the Conservative and
conciliatory policy Of President Johnson.
We make the following extract from his
speech at the Odd Fellows Banquet on
Friday evening last:
"Since1he policy of the Government
is to trust to the honor OF the Southern
people in the reorganization of their
Governments rather than to guard their
actions by military rule until later day,
1t is thus more necessary that charity
should reign in every heart, and itafords
me pleasure to be here at this feast to-
night, to assist in doing honor to an Or
der which has not forgotten that in war
there should be fellowship IN charity as
in peace.
"The Odd Fellows ofthe United States

yet had thread of charity binding the
States together. ia this respect let The
people of all sections follow thoir exam

forget that the South has been burdened

ed an indictment to be found against
him, with number fother distinguish
cd gentlemen, for treason. Thereupon
General Lee, instead of forwarding his
application to Washington, enclosed it
to General Grant, with a note calling his
attention to what had been done at Nor
folk, and renarking that, if according to
his Gen. Grants understanding of the
articles of capitulation, he (Gen. IRel
was liable to indictment and prosecution
fof treason, then he didnot feel at liberty
t. make the application for pardon..
But If General Grants understanding

the terms Of the surrender, the proceed

This brought to sudden close the plan
Of Judge Underwood to make his name
immortal by assoeiating it with trial

the President in the mode most agreea-
bic 70 himself and most honorable to his

Chief Justice MARSHALL, in his speech

remarked chat a servile and corrupt
judiciary was the greatest curse which

the Government which stands between
the innocent victim and bis blood thirsty
