SR:-I have received your invitation
TO be present at the meeting of the
Union Commission" in the City of New
York on the 18th inst At the time of
receiving the invitation l did not know
but it would be possible for me to attend.
I now find that it will not be possible
1t affords me great pleasure to see so re-
spectacle an organization as yours in-
terested in so deserving a cause. How
ever we may have differed with our
Southern brethren in the events of the
last four years, we hare nOa0 become one
people. nth but one Interest The war
has worked such ruin upon much of the
South that without some aid from those
who can give it, there must be much
suffering the coming winter. The work
of your commission, while it will give
present aid where it is so much needed,
will serve to heal old wounds.
Whatever IS calculated TO increase the
friendship and 5rotberly feeling betaCeen

Hard Hit from tho President,

TIE Rev. DR.. Bacon. of New Haven, is
ore Of the C,nneclicat diyines who in April
las publicly declared his gratitude to God for
tie dispensa'ion Of Providence which had
given, in the person Of Andrew Johnson, a
sterner man than Lincoln to visit relribu;ion
upon the South. He, like others Of his class,
no longer thanks God for the change; and a
leading Republican paper no@; says they must
all have been mistaken in supposing that
Providence directed it.
On Sunday evening DR.. Bacon made dis
course on his recent visit to Richmond. In
the course Of his remarks be told, at bis own
expense, the following good thing, in which
President hit him aud tho Radicals pretty
hard -
There were $50 white children, as poor
and ignorant as the blacks, attending at the
Laboratory Scnool. and they need the aid of
the people Of the North. When I mention
ed this fact to President johnson, his answer
was. a am very glad to find that anybody
knows that there are white folks at the
SouthI'

Er. Stanton's Regal Authority,

UNDER date Washington, Nov. IA,
" Mack" wrote the Cincinnati Commercial
as follows:
Il trust the next Congress will do
something to settle the question whether
the Government under which we live is
Republic, of which Andrew johnson is
President, with Edwin II. Stanton, to
use the language of distinguished mill
tary chieftain, q id clerk, or whether
it is really an absolute monarchy, under
the reign of Edwin I. POpe's cOuplet,
about forms Of government, may be all
we'll enough for philosophy, but it won't
do for actual practice, after all. If Ed
win Is really King, by all means let him
have the crown and the name. As to his
authority, there is no need of change in
that, for what he exercises now limitless,
and what has no limit can't be extended
so the mathematicians say, and they'r
right. But if Edwin is not actually
King, then it would pay to inquire by
what authority he arrested and sent to
prison a reporter of a Washington paper,
within a week, for publishing a harm
less item Of news; and by what authority
he denies the use of the telegraph wires
to the conductors Of loyal newspapers in
the South, while he permits gamblers,
spectators and prostitutes to use them
ad EBtun1. If he has a right to say that
such and such matter shall not 90 to the
New Orleans papers by telegraph, hasn't
he a right to say it shall not go by mail,
and therefore a right to interdict the
transmission of Northern papers through
the mail to the South, and for that mat
ter to stop the mails entirely? Where
docs power leave off and usqTPation begin
with the autocrat Of the War Depart
ment? Or can there be such a thing as
by him? Is it loyal to ask

You came to me like dew to Summer flowers
Love in your looks and in your temper ton
The power to render hopeful heavy hours
And fully make my saddened soul your own
The sweet and subtle sympathy that drew
Ny spirit unto yours and yours to mine,
And made one mind, and heart, and soul Of two
Who superhuman, ifnot all divine.
How tenderly upon my yearning heart
The dear reflection of your goodness fell;
How glad the voice that bade Despair depart
Archangel tongues can never fully tell.
The coinage Of my brain in glowing words,
Immortal SIS our love, soft as young tone,
Sweet as a brooklet's voice, or song Of birds,
We're all too poorto speak the love own.
You came to me and instantly felt
The dear delight that loved ones only know;
You came to me and at your feet knelt
With that devotion Love can only show.
I cannot tell why Eros came and sat
Upon my spirit as upon throne;
only know you came together-that
am your own and you my only Own.

A GRACEFUL CoNPLMENr.-The Empress
Eugenie, in her visit to the cholera hospitals
Of Paris, put question to one of the suffer-
ers. who was partially blind, and did not per-
ceive who it was that spoke to him. Yes,

posed the Sister Of charity who stood BY, "is

bravery Of the visit to the infected hospital;

An Important Duty,

LEF every Democrat support his local
paper. Ii is his'duty to give it all the
advertising and printing, as wellcas sub
scribers, he can. Everything should be
done to encourage and strengthen it as
the Democratic press has much to con-
tend against-money and power, the flesh
and the Devil! We invoke every man
who loves Democracy and the principles
of the Democratic party, to rally now to
the support Of his political organ. There
should be no delay about this thing. Let
it be done at ouce.-Ohio Statesmen.

HURTE-The telegraph is made the vehicle
OF conveying to the public the intelligence
that Nathaniel H. Mclean, former Assistant
Adjutant General Burnside, who was ordered
to the Pacific coast two years ago, as he al.
legged, to prevent his testimony against Hurtt,
OF the Ohio State Journal, then about to be
court-martialed, for charged rascality to the
Government in Cincinnati, promises to throw
much additional light on that interesting
transaction. By all means, let US have this
" additional light, so that the public nav
know the degree Of infamy that attaches to
this whole business. Il is somewhat inter-
esting to know how great sceundFels public
men and newspaper publishers are who in
the past did the infamous work of defaminq
Democrats.

A RAT.-We understand that a fellow by the
name OF Wood. who claims to be the proprie-
| tor Of Job Printing Office at Cleveland, in
| this State, has been perambulating our town
| for several days past soliciting orders from
our business men, for Job Printing and that
he has met with considerable success We
have not had the pleasure Of becoming ac-
Quaiuted with the Aforesaid "rat," but if we
should Judge of his knowledge of the art. by
specimens of his work that lave been shown
rs. we advise him to seek situation in some
country Office. and work under instructions
for several years at least, Men who engage
in mercantile pursutS as q general thing ac-
cnmnlafe business just in proportion as they
patronize home institutions, and they should
not complain or be surprised if they fail 10
realize their Pxaectations of success. when
they court the favor Of foreign interlopers,
ana 90 to other places to have work done,
that they could get just as cheap at home
i word to the wise is sufficient. We hope our
brethern Of the press in other places will pass
this fellow around.
Since the above was in type we learn that
Wood called on Mr.. Compton, of the firm Of
Arnold. Compton & Co., and solicited Job Of
work from him, but was quickly told by Mr..
c. that he had no work for him and added
that he had no very high opinion of man
who would engage in such disreputable
buSiness.-This Is the right kind of spirit and
we heartily commend this house to the atten-
ton of our readers GreenviEe Democrat.
This is the same "rat that visited Ur-
bana last Spring and got few orders. And
such work as he seat back Any person or
firms that are suited with such work are vel
come to get it done-and we wont be a bit
sorry-for them!
