On the other hand, look for one
moment at the effects of the pro-
longed exclusion of the Southern
States. 1t is weaving the citizens
Of those States more and more from
the National Government. For five
years they have not thought of
Washington but to curse her. They
have not felt the need of it. They
have not felt any blood running
through them that came from the
national heart. 1t is proposed to
make them live five years more out
of the Union. Is that the way to
make them love it ? Is that the way
to make them feel their need of the
Government!

The clause in the bill authorizing
foreign loan is what takes Wall

while, and the bill is regarded as
granting the Secretary Of the Trea-
sury substantially all the power that
he asks for. IS

70 Dan Rice is reported as hav.
ing called on President Johnson a
few days since, and to have had
quite long and agreeable interview
with that high functionary. AS the
result OF his extensive observations
on the South, he is said to have re.
marked to the President that he
found the great mass of the Southern
people well disposed toward the
Government.
Dan has been in the habit of visit
ing the South for a great many years,
and the conviction could never have
failed to force itself upon his mind
that the Southern people were al
ways loyalty disposed to the Gov
eminent so long as they felt and be-
lieved that Government to be impair
TALLY and constitutionally admins
tered. If the mode of legislation
practiced by Congress was in accord
with the wise and humane policy
aimed to be carried out by President
johnson, a structure of government
might be reared to command that
admiration and respect indispensable
to sure and rapid development of
fixed and genuine loyalty. As it is,
the wiseacres in Congress assembled,
permit their sagacity to be blinded
by unreasonableness and fanaticism
and persist in a course to defeat all
attempts to unite and reconcile the
lsople. But this cannot last always,
and we still have hope that bet
ter counsels will ultimately obtain
through those reaetionary principles
which are apt to follow as an anti
dote to extreme partisan measures.

~ In his testimony before the
Reconstruction Committee, Mr.. De-
Bow said he was perfectly satisfied
that the people of the South have
given up all ideas of secession.
Leaders and people Of all classes of
opinions agree upon that subject.
He said a kindly feeling existed to-
ward the negro, and that if he worked
mp to the former standard, the sys-
tenn Of free labor would prove the
cheapest. He said ninety-nine in
the hundred of the people of the
South would sustain the United
States in a foreign war.

PLANTING BY THE MooN.-Ths
Hazlehurst { Miss, Copihian enlight-
ems us thus upon this abstruse subject :
"There are great many who ridi-
cule the idea of planting by the moon
but experience is wiser than science,
and many Of the most successful gar
deners observe rigidty the rule of plant
ing according to the change of the
moon. An old friend, in whose judg-
ment we have faith, assures us that
all vegetables of the vine kind, as
beans, peas, potatoes &C., bear more
luxuriantly if planted in the first three
or four days after full moon and that
corn planted on the decline of the
moon will make heavier ears than if
planted at any other time. Let gar
deners,and planters remember this, and
make the experiment."

En,ornri,e. RenorntIon, &c.

In our rounds yesterday we happened to
call at the Grocery Store, southwest corner
of High and Friend streets, of Messrs
Brooks, Merton & Co. We found one of the
handsomest, neatest and best stocked estab-
lishments we have seen in many a day
We doubt whether its equal is to be found
in the city. The storeroom, which is ca
paciors and airy, has been recently reno
waited, white-washed and painted; the goods
rearranged in an orderly and tasty style,
and every thing presents an inviting and
elegant appearance.
We are pleased to learn that the enter
prising and accommodating firm of Messrs.
Brooks, Merton & Co. are doing large and
increasing business, and this they deserve,
as they keep the best articles in their line,
and sell them as cheap as the cheapest in
the market, and often below the prices de-
manded by many other dealers. We COM
mend them to the patronage Of the people
of the city and country. We say to our
readers, call and see how neatly and pleas
antly this establishment is fitted up. The
sight itself will well repay visit. Upon
inquiry you will find another great induce
ment to call there often, and that is, In the
excellent quality and cheapness of the
goods.

Tho Tenth Congressional District.

The Tenth Congressional District.
The Putnam County Sentinel of the 18th OF
April contains an article on "the Congress
sional Campaign" in the Tenth DISTRICT
which may be regarded as having consider
able significance. 1t thinks tEat ASHLEY
will again secure the Radicet nomination,
being the best manager on that side; and
suggests that Hon. w. d HILL, of the Ohio
House of Representatives from Defiance,
be made the DemoGratic candidate against
him. We make The following extract from
the SentinepS article:
"For our gains and improved prospects in
the Western part of the District, the DEM
Ocratic party is under obligations to Hon.
w. ID. Hill, Of Defiance, perhaps more than
tU any other one man; and there Is a grow
ing disposition on the part Of thinking men
in our party to enlarge the field of his la
bOrs by making him our staDdard-bearer III
the coming Congressional campaign.
''Withoutintending any dsparagement OF
other members of our remarkably talented
representation in the State Legislature, last
winter, we only express current opinion
when we say, that no Democrat in either
house won finer reputation for tact, judg-
ment, firmness of principle and strength OF
character, and no one eXcelled him as a
ready, skilltul and eloquent debater. On
the stump, before the people, Mr. Hill would
furnish Colorado JIM abundantly with
the kind of opposition he has long needed
and In Congress he would represent the
people of the Northwest District as we be-
lieve an honest majority of them have long
desired.
at is proper for us to say, that we make
public these suggestions without ever hay-
ing heard that Mr. Hill desires or would
even accept nomination for Congress"
We take great pleasure in indorsing what
the Sentinel says of the ability and efficiency
of Mr.. HILL as legislator; and we know
of no one in the District who is more elo-
quent and effective before the people.
Should he be nominated and elected, lie
would make most creditable Congress
man-such an one as the Tenth District
ought to have; but it is not our province to
express a preference as between Democrats
who may be candidates for nomination
that belongs to our friends in the District,
who will doubtless make wise selection
from among their many able and distin-
guished public men. They will elect the
nominee, whoever he may be.
