ANDY JouvsOx's PLUcK-The New York cor
respondent of the Boston Journal gives the fol-
lowing anecdote illustrating the pluck of Presi-
dent Johnson:
The dav before the execution of the assassins,
company OF gentlemen were at the Astor House
most of whom agreed that Mrs. Surratt would
not be executed, some assigning the reason that
the President would not have pluck enough to
brave public sentiment and allow woman to be
hung. A well known merchant of New York
who was present, coolly remarked, - man who
talks about Andy johnson 5 want of pluck evil

has signed the death warrant of Mrs. Surratt,
she will die. If he had intended to rcprieve her
he would not have signed it." He added, " Let

Nashville when the city was surrounded by 20,-
900 rebel troops, who demanded its surrender
Gen. Buell. was in the city in command of ! 0, 600
men. He determined on the surrender of the
city to the rebel forces. He came to Governor
Johnson and announced to him that he could not
defend the city and that Nashville must be sur
rendered The Governor heard him quietly
through. and then replied, q You are in command

THE MoRAvIANs IN THE HIMALAYAs.-The trav
cler who, after making long and desolate marches
where no European face is seen, passes the cairn
near the Beas khoond which marks the extreme
limit of India on the north, and after few more
marches comes upon the Mission settlement of
the Moravian brethren at kyelang, is apt to fancy
that he has somehow reached - home, " so thor
oughly English and domestic is the scenery.

PAYING THE REBEL DEBr.-Thare are
many who think the idea, that the Gov
eminent will be asked to assume the Reb-
ell debt, perfectly preposterous. In their
simplicity they think that no man, not
even an unrepentant rebel himself. would
have the temerity to propose so absurd a
thing as that the government should paw
The expenses ofits own attempted destruc-
ton. Well, the idea is irrational and pre-
posterous, and yet there are those who adj
vocate 1T, AZ the following from the Chica-
go Times witnesses:
''Thereis no ground of justice upon
which we can expect the Southern people
to submit willingly to the situation. unless
we recognize the same value in their fund
ed obligations as our own"
That is, according to corperhead logic,
we must either assume the Rebel debt or
repudiate our own. 1t is well for the peo-
pie to bear these things i'm mind. The in
dications are that we shall soon see embla-
zoned on the Copperhead banners the
words, PAY all debts, Confederate and
Federal, or pay none Such a motto
would be immensely popular among the
holders of rebel bonds, and they could
we'll afford to pay northern copperheads
millions in Confederate securities to get
them TO Adopt it.-Hduk-Eye.

is again raging on the plains. We learn
from Capt, Murphy that the following for
ces, with their present locations, ~ all
there is to rely upon. Six companies of
the 9TH Iowa Cavalry are distributed as
follows: Co. \, Capt. Z. b. Murphy, at

at o FaiiOn's Bluffs Go. G, Capt Cream
or, at BeariaS; Co. ID, Capt. Hayward, at
Julesburg; Co. +, Capt. q Brien, at Fort
Laramie. There are seven companies of
the LIST Nebraska Cavalry, distributed IL
bout equally among the above posts
There are also about 1, ur companies ofthe
L. $. V. Infantry. Altogether there are
only about 1000 effective men to RELY upon
In this emergency, of course u mere hand
full compared with the united force of all
the Indian tribes engaged in the war. 1t
strikes us that the government will be
greatly wanting in its duty, not TO send at
once an adequate force TO prosecute this
Indian war with more vigor than has thus
far characterized it. The troops there are
efficient, but there are too few ofthem.
