The CIoyen FeOt.

Once in a whle-notwithstanding in
terested professions to the contrary-the
Journals cloven foot will stick out. The
telegraph gave us to understand, a few
days ago, that the Fenisn Congress had
determined to petition the President for
the release of John Mitchell, that the
brotherhood might have the benefit of his
services in the coming struggle for Ilish
Nationality.
President johnson, anticipating the
wishes of his Irish fellow-citizens, and no
doubt sympatbising with the cause they
have at heart-the liberation of their
native land from the misiule and oppres-
sion of naughty England-pardoned the
distinguished exile. The journal, fearing
to attack the Presidents policy openly,
takes occasion to show its hatred of the
Irish and the cause in which they are
engaged, by making covert attack on the
humane policy of the President, after the
following peculiar style of the negro equal
ity organ:
John Mitchell, the Irish reptile has been
released from prison"
The "Irish reptile I" That's good foi
the Journal. John Mitchell has his faults
and so have most other men. His greatest
sin, on this occasion--in the Journals
estimation--is that he is an "Irish reptile,
and loves his native land
In the late rebellion, ho espoused thu
cause of the South, where he was living
at the time of the breaking ont Of thu
war; he vigorously defended the confeder
acy and participated in the struggles o
the South for independence.
John Mitchell's bitterest enemies-th,
English aristOcracy--never applied to tina
whole .soulOd and generous man the low
and mean epithet of "Irish reptile" Tha
was left for the craven spirit of abolition
ism, to be uttered through the columns o
that bigoted and virulent organ of Negro
equality-the Dayton Journal.

The Jews aud the war.

The Jews, as body, have shown a
full share of patriotism. From Ohio l2,-
600 went to fight for the Union flag; from
New York 10000 from Illinois 5000 ;
from Michigan and Wisconsin 3 900; and
from other states enough to make total
of 10000. They have also given of their
wealth for the soldiers. They have estab-
lished five asylums for disabled soldiers,
their widows and orphans, the benefits Of
which are limited to no faith or creed

GEN BIaIr's Speech.

The speech of Gen. Blair at Rola.
Missouri, few days since, went right
straight at the subject He says that Gen.
Grant captured over one hundred thou
sand bales of cotton at Vicksburg, and
turned it over to the government. But
not one thousand bales were ever account
ed for. This cotton was worth al least
,aOenty millions Of dollars, and it was
stolen by the "loyal' officers, provost
marshals, and government agents. Still
this monstrous robbery was hardly noti-
ced. 1t was sample of many others

Stanton was an original traitor.

Pierre SOuIe.

The Louisville journal, in defending
the Hon. Pierre Soule from the charge of
having used his influence to carry the
creole population of Louisiana into rebel
lion, says "Mr. Soule did oppose seces-
sion with all his power and eloquence ; he
spoke against it both in French and Eng
lish, and worked against it, and voted
against it. 1t was not in the power of a
thousand Pierre Soules to withstand the
tornado of passion that swept in wild and
terrible wrath in Louisiana in common
with every southern state in 1861. The
winds were let loose"

National Bank stock.

The decision delivered by the New
York Court of Appeals, affirming the
taxability of the shares of the new ma
tional banks, and thus adding, if approv-
ed by the United States Supreme Court,
a hundred millions to the taxable property
of the State, is one of the most important
ever made. The opinion is by Judge
DEMO, in which the whole court concur,
and argues the two points:
l. That the national banks are instruments
of the federal government for the execution
of certain of its functions and therefore not
taxable,
l. That the property of these banks consists
in part of United States securities, and as
these are exempt from taxation, the banks, 80
far as their property consists in these securi-
ties, cannot be taxed.
Judge DEMO analyses these two points
in manner which must stagger those
who hold to contrary opinions. The
press, SO far, do not attack the position
taken by the court, which in brief is-lst,
that although in the act of Congress
creating these banks, the operations of the
national banks are not taxed, their real and
personal property and the shares of theil
stock holders are, as in any other kind o.
property; and I'd, that although the "bondt
cannot be taxed" the banks can +:
"a State tax cannot be laid upon the bondt
in the hands Of actual holders. But is q
stock-holder in national bank in any Rtrict
and proper sense an owner Of these bonds2-
This question is easily answered by an inqui
ry into the nature Of his shares. They are q
sort of what is called, in legal pArlance, cho'
ses in action; they merely entitle their holder
to distributve proportion Of the profits ol
dividends Of the bank.
"The holders no more own the property o
the bank than do its creditors and bill-holders
nor indeed so much; for II the bank is CON.
PEELED to wind up it's affairs, the claims OF it
creditors must first be satisfied, and what il

An old Republican prefers VAL

like most of the Republicans, down on VAL

politicians present said to him, that the Re
publican papers had been very busy during
the campaign, trying to create the impression
that Mr.. V. was candidate; now, he desired
to know who would be the old gentleman g
first choice, il the Democrats should present
Vallandighsm, and the Republicans should
con6ue themselves to Baber and Coggeshall
for candidate. Our aged friend replied,
that he would take Val. in that case,as be was
