bellion have done the deed that will for.
ever mske them infamous, if indeed any
thing more was needed to make them SO.
Not content with slaughtering and starv,
ing thousands Of the best men of our
country, they must needs strike at the
head aud heart of the nation, and take
the man. who above all others enjoyed
the confidence and inspired the hopes Of
the great body Of the people. Perhaps
+ 1t was necessary that this last great crime
should be committed that the world
might forever have horror of the evils
connected with man stealing and woman
whipping.
: It is hard to see why this horrible
deed was permitted, but it may be that
the kindhearted ABRAHAM LINCOLN was
willing to let off the leaders of the REBEL
ion too easily, and it was necessary to
demonstrate still more clearly the wick
edness in order that the necessary pun
ishment should be meted out to them. -
At all events the deed is done, and it re
mains for the people to rally around the
new administration and give it words OF
encouragement aud hope. President
JOHNSON is not an unknown man. He
has filled many stations and filed them
With honor. He may not be perfect, bu
who among US all can "throw the first
stone" There are good reasons for hop
ing that he will SO fill the Office thai
none shall blush for his conduct. He
fought the demon secession in the U. S
Senate and told JEFF Davis that had he
the power he would hang him if he car
ried out his traitorous designs. We hope
that he will have the opportunity to per
form that desirable operation.

crop of tobacco in Virginia is almost too
insignificant to be worth mentioning.
During the war the cultivation Of this
staple was almost entirely abandoned.
and is not likely to be resumed to any
considerable extent There is consider
able activity in the market at present.
Large quantities of tobacco which have
been held over for two or three years are
daily coming in.
