HUMILIATlNG, But JUsT.-Some of
our hutternut exchanges do not seem
to like the position in which their
adherents were put in regard to the
4th of July, they seeming very gen
orally throughout the country to have
been expected by the present pro-
prietors of the 4th of July, to stand
back and wait until called. II must
have been humiliatlng to men who
In the old times made an equal claim
to the glories of that day, to be put
in such position; but a man who sym
pathized with the rebellion could ex-
pect nothing else, and certainly
should not complain. The rebels
themselves, by State action, in some
cases, formally repudiatcd the 4th of
July as well as Yankee Doodle; and
those who sympathized with them,
in 80 far, gave them aid and comfort.
They relinquished their rights In
those institutions, and if they ever
regain them. it must be by the suffer-
ance and permission of those who
remained loyal. In the meantime.
it is becoming in them to stand back.
Especially is this the case when the
glorious 4th is.appropriated as an
occasion upon which to do honor to
the brave soldiers, whom the friends
of these people, very short time
ago, would much rather have well
coined to their graves Wslls6urg

PRISONERS RTING.-Frequent
reports are received of Investigations
into the cases of Union prisoners
who had enlisted in the rebel army.
On this subject j. H. Browne, cor
respondent of the N. Y. Tribune,
and long a prisoner in the South,
says:
Frequently prisoners asked us,
sometimes with tears in their eyes:
what shall we do? We grow weak
er day by day. Staying here we
shall be certain to follow our COM
rades to the hospital and the dead
house. The rebels assure us that if
we enlist, we shall have abundant
food and clothing; and we may find
a chance of escaping to our own
lones.'
81 always answered that they owed
no obligation to God or man to re-
main and starve to death.
''Of the two thousand who did en-
list, nearly all designed % desert at
the first opportunity. Their remain
ing comrades had no federation for
them. If one who had joined the
rebels came back into the yard for a
moment, his life was in imminent
peril.

HOE OUT YOUR ROW.

One lazy day Farmers boy
Was hoeing in the corn,
Aud, moodily, had listened long
To hear the dinner horn;
The welcome blast, was heard at last,
: And down he dropped his hoe;
But the father shouted to the lad
my boy, hoe out your row!!"
Although "hard one'' was the row,
To use plowman's phrase
And the lad, as sailors have it,
Beginning well to s'hase,"-
81 vill," he said; and, manfully,
He seized again his hoe;
And the father smiled tn see his boy
Hoe out the weedy row.
The lad the text remembered,
And proved the moral WE'LL
That Perseverance to the end
at last will nobly tell.
Take courage, man,-resolve you cAs,
And strike a vigorous blow;
And in this life,s great Field of Toll

THE RECORD OF SHAME.

back once in while upon the cours,

taxation. They have not yet reported, but
IL isfunderstood 10 be their opinion that no
radical change should be made in our present
system. In reference TO the recently rebcl.
lious States, the Secretary recommends that
the collection OF internal revenue taxes IN
those States accruing previous 10 tho estab.
lishment Of collection Offices be indefinitely
postponed that sales Of property under tho
direct tax law be suspended until the States
shall have an opportunity Of assuming the
payment OF the tax assessed upon them; and
that all transactions In those States which
may be invalid by reason Of the non.use Of
stamps, be legaliEed rs far as II Is in the
power Of Congress to legaliEe them.
The reciprocity treaty with Great Britain
is glanced at, and IL Is suggested that after
its expiration in March next, no further trea-
ties Of this character be entered into, as IL is
thought they tend to embarrass congressio nal
legislation on the subject Of revenue.
liberal policy is recommended In regard
TO the mineral lands owned by the Govern
ment, and It Is thought that an absolute title
in fee should be substituted for the indefinite
po'sessory rights or claims now held by
miners
Our revenue marine being adapted for
time Of war rather than peace, It is recon-
mended that vessels Of the larger class be
sold, and the proceeds applied to the pur.
chase Of others Of q different and lighter
draft.

cred as not altogether satisfactory, II Is rec
commended that such hospitals as are not
needed be sold.

most ably lays down. He urges Congress to
