THE JUBILEE IN New RK.-The New
York papers are filed with glowing &C
counts of the rejoicings and celebrations
in that city on Monday last. If we can
believe what we read, there were nearly
a million of rejoicing people in the
streets, on the fences and lamp posts,
and in the windows and balconies. The
stars and stripes were on every house,
all former professions were totally
eclipsed the line was ten miles long
the Army, Navy, City, State, and the
rest Of mankind were represented. In
the evening there was magnificent
pyrotechnic display, in which, among
many other brilliant spectacles, the
bombardment of Fort Sumter, and the
Naval engagement between the Monitor
and the Merrimac were represented,
The police arrangements are said to have
been admirable; unusual good feeling
prevailed, and everything passed off
without accident. What was very re-
markable, Unprecedented and worthy
Of imitation was that the procession
commenced moving precisely at the
hour appointed A few days before, Col.
Howe had moved that one o'clock mean
one o'clock, and he carried out the idea
in his programme.

PRoHIBITIoN.-In the U. S. Senate pr
ceedings Of Thursday, it will be notict
that Senator Wilson introduced res
luton abolishing and prohibiting tie
sale of Intoxicating liquors in any pEt
of the Senate wing of the Capitol. tbs
is a step in the right direction, anCit
means something. We find it stated
the Springfield Republican that Senaor
Wilson had previously threatened o
offer a resolution expelling every pi-
vate bottle from the rooms of the SCI
ate, because that body had been day
disgraCed by the drunkenness of sOle
of its members. If one half of the gs-
sip Of the papers IS true, there is now n
additional and cOgent reason for this e
strictiOn. A single objection void
have required the resolution to lie Owe
but no objection was made. On he
contrary, voices from all parts of Sd
ate Chamber cried, let it pass imte-
diately;" and it did pass Immediately.
We should say the next step woa1
be to prohibit the sale in the Districtpf
Columbia. 1t is hardly stating the c$e
too strongly to say that drunkennes
constitutes as foul blot in the Natiq-
al Capitol as did Slavery a few monts
ago. The triumphant success whih
has crowned the efforts made to ~
move the one, is a guaranty thatthe
same is sufficient to put an end to the
other. In little book published more
than thirty years ago, entitled Six
Sermons on Intemperance," by Dr.. Ly-
man Beecher occurs this passage
"What, then, is the universal, natural
and national remedy for intempe'ance 2"
"It is the Punishment Of arden, spirits
from the list of lawful articles of com
merce by a correct and efficient public
sentiment, such as has turned slavery
out Of half our land, and will yet ex-

No CoLoRPHoBIA IN Mr., EvRRETT,-
Edward Everett, like many other pub
lie men, was for many years denounced
by abolitionists because he was unwil-
ling to assail the government and the
church, under pretense of attacking
slavery That he had no vulgar preju-
dice against the negro, the following in
cident, related by his nephew, Rev. f,
E. Hale, in an article in the Atlantic,
shows
"Mr. Everett was eager to educate
the people, and all the people. He did
not believe it possible to educate any of
them too well. And if you had asked
him, the day he died, what had been the
central idea of his life, he would have
said it was the education of the people,
His life was full of it. His speeches
were full of 1t. Nothing SO provoked
him as any snobbing which wanted to
hinder it. When he was president OF
the college, think in 1848-there was
a black boy in the high school at Cam
bridge, fitting for college. Some gen
tlemen in Alabama, who had sons there
or on their way there, wrote to Mr.. EV
erett to demonstrate against the boy
entering. He replied, that the colleg
was endowed to educate all corners
that, if the black boy could pass his el,
animation, as he hoped he could, Il
would be admitted; and that it, IS
they seemed to suppose, all the whi9
students withdrew, the college woul
then be conducted on its endowmen3
for the black boy alone. And that WIS
no exceptional reply. 1t was his wg

they place themselves in hostile atti-
tude against the best patriots of the
land, or affiliate with the meanest trai-
tors.
al what we have said, we would by
no means be understood as being in IA
vor of allowing the rebel leaders to es-
cape with impunity, They ought to sog-
fer. Jefferson Davis, the members Of his
so.called cabinet, his lieutenant and
major generals, Ex-Governor Wise and
the rebel governors generally, together
with Mason and Slidell, ought to suffer
the full penalty of the laws they have
outraged. The safety Of the nation for
all coming time requires this, and that
moral sense which is implanted deep in
the hearts of the community will be sat
isfed with nothing less.
