D1ED,-At the residence of bis father, William
Weatherford, near Port Royal, Montgomery county,
Tenn, on the 9Th of February, 1866, Captain
LOGAN A. WATERFRONT, Of Arkansas, aged 35
years and days.
The mind of the deceased was highly cultivated
For many years before the late war; much Of his time
was devoted to politics, as editor and public speak,
er. He was in politics sincere Southern rights
man, of the Calhoun school, and when the war
broke out he was too chivalric to leave to others
the task of brcasting the storm which his vigor-
Gus pen and imprisoned eoquence had 'holp to
make so portly," and in 1861, he went into the
Confederate service, rs Captain Of Co. Ii. REG
iment, Arkansas, Infantry, Churchells Division,
Trans Mississippi Department. Before the war
closed, he was attached to the staff Of General
Churchill with the rank Of Colonel. 4,
On visit to his parents with his family, death,
with but short notice, claimed him, and surrounded
by his family and his near kindred, he departed 10
join his first born, bis dear "Birdy," in the spirit
land 1t is consong to his family and christian
friends that he had that consolation which religion
affords, and may we not rely on the promises Of
our blessed Savior, that, in the resurrec ton, he
will be equal unto the Angels" N.

giving place to desire for peace and unity; truth
and justice are exertng their beni6ccnt influence
upon the popular mind; the dscordant elements
rsgeadered by war are settling down in harmony
with law and order, and sober second thought is
bringing home. to every good man, the conviction
that we must look to confidence and Cancellation
for harmony, and to enlightened justice for psrma-
nent and prosperous Union The President has led
on in this direction; the people will follow his

wiles OF ambitious d,magoguss can long defer that

The Presidents Veto Message

Has the ring Of The olden times, when the Consti-
tuition was veneratcd for its wisdom, and adhered
to as the landmark Of political rights and the best
THAT instrument has either been regarded as OBJ
solete record, p,aything, In the hands Of the
Radicals with which to amuse the populace, whilst
its letter and spirit violated whenever either
WAS supposed to Interfere with the preconceried
programme Of the war. We bad feared thst re-
turn to constitutional government was a very
remote, if not hopeless events this message, how
ever, not only revives our hopes, but gives the
assurance that the President with n firm purpose
and steady hand, will chees the mad career Of
the desructves and restore the Union and the Con-
sstution, as nearly as may be, to their status be-
fore the war Relieved from painful doubt, we
now breathe easy and instead Of feeling called upon
TO combat every political hcresy put forth by the
Radical majority in Congress, we shall let 'em rip
knowing that power greater than theirs Is ar
rayed against thena, and to which they must sue
eumb sooner or later. The South has nothing 10
loose, now, by being unrepresented in Congress,
because all il could hope 70 achieve, through its
representatives, would be the defeat of such laws
as the enlarged Freedmen's Bureau bill; and since
the veto is competent to that end, and the Presi-
rent has shown his purpose to defend and preserve
the Constitution, we don't care button whether
cur delegates are admitted or not. Were they in
their Seats there would still be majority Of Rad
'cals In both Eouses; that majority could pass its
Hills IN spite Of the Southern representatives, ant
nothing but the Executive veto could prevent them
from becoming laws. As an evidence of re
storsd Union, and reviving harmony, every good
man would 10 glad to see the Southern delegates
admitted to their seats, but for any practical pur
pose likely 10 be subserved thereby, it is, perhaps
better - IL 10 for In the present temper of the
jsrity, alienation, rather than harmony wonld be
the result Let us, then, be quiet and patient
quiet because powerless to remedy the.evils COM
pIAinsd Of and patient because assured that the
President is the firm friend of the Union and Con
sstution, and that he win stand between them and
the power which seeks to destroy both.

Nsw York, Feb. 2s.-The Tribune's Washing.
ton special says; THE President was called upon
last night by Congressman and State Senator
both from New York. In the course of converse,
ton the President said that the test oath was a
little too severe that many of those who had par.
ticipatcd in the rebellion were good men to repre-
sent the Southern States in Congress, and that the
test oath ought not to be applied to them. He
added that mere oath to support the constitution
was all that was necessary, for man that would
take that oath was loyal man. As to the eonsti
tutiona amendment changing the basis of repre-
Tsentation, the President said no constitutional
amendment ought TO be passed until the public
should be quito free from excitement and the
Southern States represented in Congress.

TENNESSEE has spoken out, in tones not to be
mistaken, in favor of the Union and the Constitu.
ton, and it must be gratifying to the President to
know that his own State endorses bis course un.
qualfedly, and almost unanimously. It is true
he has enemies in the Sae it is equally true that
he knows who they arc, and how little he has to
fear from their hostility. He knows them to be in
alliance with Thad. Stevens and Fred. Douglass
and in his recent denunciasien of the Radical
leaders, he evinced his contempt for the small fry
who yeps at his heels and babe defiance to the mas
ter spirits of the rebellion against the Union and
the Constitution. Tennessee took its position at
the right time and in the right spirit. None can
now mistake its sentiments, however much malice
may dissert then and, for the future, memorialiss
and Radical letter writers can not deceive the
honest masses though they may still furnish texts
for the vindictive agitators who prefer the ruin of
the government to the overthrow of their power.
