Presidents Message.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-The Pres
ident has signed the joint resolution
admitting Tennessee, but says the
preamble consists of statements,
some of which are assumed, while
the resolution is merely declara-
tion of opinion. 1t comprises no
legislation, nor does it confer any
power which is binding upon the
respective Houses, the Executive OF
the State. He further says the right
of each State under the Constitution,
to Judge of the qualifications of its
own members, is undoubted, and his
approval or disapproval of the res
olution could not in the slightest de-
gree increase or diminish the au-
thority in this respect conferred on
the two branches of Congress, but
he is earnestly desirous to remove
every cause of futher delay, wheth
er real or imaginary, on the part Of
Congress to the admission of the
loyal Senators and representatives
lrOul 4SuucSbct. 4NOIWltlotuiiulh
the anomalous character of the pro
cecdings, he affixes his signature to
the resolution; at the same time, his
approval is not to be construed as an
acknowledgment that Congress has
the right to pass laws preliminary
to the admission of representatives
from any of the States, nor is it to
be considered as committing him to
all the statements Of the preamble,
some cf which arc without founda-
ton. Among them, he states there
is reason to believe the Tennessee
Legislature has not ratified tho late
amendment passed by Congress. A
part of the message was greeted with
derision and laughter by the Radi-
Gals, and with applause by the Dem
ocrats. Subsequently, the Commit
tee on Elections reported favorably
the credentials of the Tennessee
members and an invitation was ex-
tended to them to come forward to
be sworn. Maynard, Taylor and
Stokes appeared and took the oath.
This was followed by much applause,
and the new members received the
congratulations of the Speaker and
others.

The New Postmaster General.

The new Postmaster General OF
the United States, Hon. A. W. Kan
dali, rose to prominence during the
war. IIe is therefore not generally
well known in the South.
He was born in New York in
1919, and consequently forty,sevon
years of age. In early life he re-
moved with his fathers family to
Wisconsin, then o territory very
thinly inhabited by rough people,
and subject to raids from hostile
Indians. In that wild country his
opportunities for education were
slim, and he grow up without any
learning except what he obtained
through his own unassisted eXer-
tions. He is entirely q self-made
man. His first appearance in pub
lie life was as member OF tho Wis
consin Convention, which was assem-
bled to form Constitution prepar-
atory to admission into the Union.
His vigorous, masculine intellect
soon obtained for him the leadership
of that body, in which his influence
became paramount. He was hence
forward recognized as one OF the
ablest men of that State. In 1896
he was elected it's Governor by o
large majority, as the Opposition,
candidate-that is to say, rs BLACK
Rcnrblican or freesoiler, but one OF
n very moderate and conservative
stripe. When the war broke out
in 1861, he was very prominent in
firing the heart of the Northwest;
and the very heavy forces poured
out by Wisconsin upon the soil OF
the South, were to large extent
raised through his exertions.
For these useful services he re-
ceived the appointment from Presl-
dent Lincoln Of the post of Minis.
ter to Rome. He accepted it and
filled it's duties with much ability,
but becoming tired Of it, he resign
ed in 1863 and was transferred to
the position of First Assistant Post
master General of the United
States. He held it until on tho res
ignation of Gov. Dennison, he was
promoted by President Johnson in
his place. He is remarkable man,
who has proved himself more than
equal to every public position he has
been placed in, and there is no
doubt that he will manage the du-
ties of his new Office efficiently and
ably.
He is thoroughly devoted to the
policy of the Administration, and
has lately acquired particular prom
inence before the country as chair
man of the National Union Execu-
tive Committee.--Houston 1ete-

M1scEaENAT1oN BROUGHT TO
Gn1EF.-The city of Shreveport was
the scene of no little excitement on
the 4th, the particulars of which
reach us through the Shreveport
News and other sources. 1t tappears
that Capt. Haskell, Of the U. s.
army, in command of one of the
negro regiments stationed at that
place, drove into town, late in tho
evening, in a large elegant carriage,
accompanied by five or six young
negro and yellow women, and after
traversing the town, to the outrage
of public decency, finally halted in
front of Engle& Co.'S cigar and wine
store, and sent one Of. the wenches
to procure champagne to treat his
sable mistresses. Failing to get it,
he dispatched another, who was also
refused. He then left the carriage
and entered the store himself, where
his conduct was Of such nature as
to result in his being, in the Ian
guage of the News, "spun out Of the
house like top" After being
kicked several times in his exit, and
afterwarde knocked down as many
moro, he finally mado his way to
the carriage, when he was immedi.
ately assaled by brick bats and
stones. The carriage was literally
broken to pieces. The driver was
driven from his seat, and the women
all left him except one ofpure Afri-
can descent, who had been riding
on the outside with the driver.
Our informant states that she left
her place, Joined the captain in the
carriage, and threw herself wildly
and affectionately into his arms
Finally the driver made his appear
ance, and drove off
Shortely afterwards, band Of
negro troops, without commander,
made their appearance on the streets,
leveling their guns upon and insult
ing every one they met. Their con-
duct is described as outrageous in
the extreme. Fortunatelythey COM
mitted no personal violence on any
one, though it was feared for time
that they would kill several persons.
They carried off several respectable
citizens to camp. 1880.
The Mayor Immediately called q
meeting of the citizens at his Office
and special police force to protect
the city was ordered out. The
Mayor communicated with Gen
Midget, who answered in person al
the Mayors Office. sals
The News says:
"A brief consultation was had, in
which the General promised to with
draw the troops, which he die
promptly, and restored the reins o
civil authority to the hands of ths
Mayor; released all prisoners save
one, who was surrendered to th'
civil authority the following morn
ing. and admitted to bail

that the negro troops acted withou

PETRIfIED BONES OF a MAMMOTH.
Texas abounds in petrifactions,
particularly of vegetable matter,
many of which are objects of singu-
lar interest. We remember tohave
noticed at Seott's station, near the
railroad, several years ago, a portion
of trunk of large tree turned
completely to stone. Petrifcd ami
mails are rarely met with. Recent
ly Mr.. VIM. Blocker, Of this county,
while cleaning out a spring near his
residence dug up the remains of a
mammoth, the flesh and bones OF
which were petrifed. The flesh
shows the fat and the lean, and per-
haps the veins. The thigh bone OF
this animal. measures round the
bulb that works in the socket, nine
teen inches in circumference, and
Immediately below the bulb, four
teen and half inches. Mr.. B.
promises to send MS a portion OF
this petrificd monster for the inspec-
ton of those who take an interest
in such matters.-UarshaH Repub-
