measure If they Gun. Justice demands that the
colored men shall have the right of protecting

In a Petticoat.

The London Spectator, commenting upon the
sudden check of our jubilee of victory by the MUIR
der Of Mr.. Lincoln, calls it the "rony of fate."-
So 1t may have seemed at the moment; but now it
Is clear that Fate was never so generous in deal
ing with this rebellion. Within less than two
months the great conspiracy, which had lasted long
enough 10 gain the sembancc of power, suddenly
reels, crashes, and crumblcs utterly away. In the
last struggle its expiring force concentrated into
one crime so black that the shuddering world ey-
cry where recognizes the utterly devlish spirit Of
the rebellion; ald that the whole gamut of emotion
may be swept, from the extreme of joy through the
most narrowing tragedy, to utter farce and con-
tempt, while America aud Europe are still aghast,
peal of inextinguishable laughter goes ringing
found the globe as the chief conspirator, "the
statesman Who has created a natiou," skulks
tremblingy away in petticoats, and whines that it
is too bad to pursue women and children.
So this rebellion, the most formidable in history,
which. it is not too much to say, would have pre-
vailed against any other government in the world.
is not only ais ,utey annhated by the resistess
energy of a truly popular Government, but end,
without sign of the dignity that lesser crimes
sometimes assume, despicable and ridiculously
Even Judas lscarot went ont and hung himself
Booth, the murderer of one beloved MN, at least
died like savage beast at bay. Nobody will ever
smile at the mention OF his name. But Davis, with
the blood of untold thousands OF brave and noble
victims upon his soul, will go down to po>terty
covering undera pctticost, the object of mingled
horror and derision. 4

Texas.

New YoRK, June 5.-New Orleans dates to
the 3lst ult. are received. Colonel Ashbcl Smith
and w. 7. Bpinger, the commissioners sent by
Gen. Magruder TO settle terms for the surrender
of the rebel force in Texls, had arrived. When
sent, Magruder knew nothing of Kirby Smiths sur
render. They stated that they represent fully the
civil authorities also. Gen. Candy told them he
could not recognize the civil authorities, but would
grant the commission an interview.
They represent that the people ofTexas will re
turn 10 the Union without the least reservation
They do not wish to set up any barriers between
themselves and any other States, East, West, or
North. They anxious and long have been, to
return to the Union. They return to it as it is,
without claim upon the past, and accept the situa
ton pure and simple.
New Orleans papers the 3lst state that the
country in the ncighborhood OF BraShear city, on
Berwick Bay, is inundated some fifteen feet by tn
recent crevasse, entang great distress by the loss

Notes of Third Series Of 730S now

The demand for the Second Series of the 80
Notes was 50 great that the Treasury Department
was unable to print them with sufficient rapidity
10 I'll the orders. 1t will be remembered that a
hundred millions were subscribed and paid for in a
single week. The printing presses have finally
surrnounted the difficulty, and on "Wednesday,
June It'll, the deliveries of the Third Series COM
uienced, and will be continued with the same
promptnes that marked the supply of the notes
of the first AMI second series. 1t hls been this in
terruption Of delivery at the tim, Of subscription
which has given appearance ola filling off in
the popular taking 4 the an,-the great body Of
snail takers being unwilling to pay their money
unless they receive :her notes RICH, in hand, to
carry them home. IL Is expected that after this
week the daily subscriptions to the SevenThirties
will run up into millions, as they viii undoubtedly
he stimulated by the opening of the farmers wool
markets Fast and West. Il is not at all likely
that the Government viii ever again offer so desi-
rabIs security these notes, and about two
hundred millions only remain to be taken.
With the close of the war the national expenses
will be vastly reduced, and investors must look
for sharp reduction in the rate Of interest soon
rs the present loans become due, AMI en- be paid
off There is no reason why the United States
credit for money should ever again fall below its
credit for courage. The same spirit that preserved
the geographical integrity of the country will place
its peeaniary integrity on par with that of the
most favored nitionS-ln1 that will represent a
rate of interest under rather thln over four
per cent.

Lieut.. Gen u. s. Grant, passed through this
place on Tuesday morning last, on the train going
east But very few il any Of our citizens were ap
prised Of his coming in time to be on hand at the
depot on the arrival OF the trIin consequently but
few had the pleasure of seeing and grasping the
hand Of the great man. He came out on the r''aI-
form Of the car while the engine was receiving
wood and water and offered his band to all who
approached him for that purpose. All who saw
him describe him plain, unassuming nan in
appearance and not at all set up on account of bis
brilliant exploits.
General Grant had been on a visit to Chicago
~ attend the Sanitary Fair now in progress He
arrived there Saturday where he met with a
grand and enthusiastic reception.
General Sherman arrived in Chicago on Thurs
day where he was warmly and enthusiastically re-
ceived.
