"Nuf;Ct."
''lhc 100 rebels now asking for seats
in these chambers arc informed that
they caa be admitted as members Of
thus body only on presentation of clc-
len,ials showing:
First, that the rebel states have de-
c,arcd hull and void the ordinances of
secession.
Second, they Ea,s. regulated the

Third, that they have ratified the
ccus,i:ut. DIAL amendments.
Fourth, thai they have ordained
cqu>l rights to all citizens.
To any terms at variance with these
the doors are Shut!
s. far ns heard from this notice
would exclude every state from repro
sentation in Congress, except perhaps,
liass.; because every one of them reject
the fourth plank IN the programme, as
interpreted by Sumner and his radical
supporters, Ivy denying eQuol rights
to those negroes Us cLluyed by tic
whites, in the states. In only two
of the states Of the north, Iowa AMI
Minnes0ts, did the platform Of any par
ty declare ia favor Of such rights to the
negro: anLrhose representing the prln-

him about it.
Edward did come that evening, and /
could not help acknowledging that he was
worth dozen men like Fitzjasmine.
Aunt Betsy greeted him with--there,
Mr.. Selford. this is my niece, Cory Car

wife to be her own sister. And you have
my full consent to court her, and to mar
ry her, if you want to. But she don,
know how to skim milk, and ! must say
she's the awkwardest person to wash up
a floor that ever seed.
Mr. Selford laughed-I joined him
and we were acquainted at once.
And, to cut the story short, three
weeks after our first meeting, Mr. Sell
ford asked me to be his wife, and we are
to be married on Christmas.
Aunt Betsy declared that it was all
owing to my extraordinary resemblance
