yoked by tho exclusion OF the Representatives
OF the press from the grand banquet at DEL

and busy pens OF the reporters are the naaa rs
by which the American DEMOS enjoys these

At the same time it cannot be denied that
day b. day the functions Of reporters. and
special correspondents. have been enlarged
by these classes until they have assumed, es-
pecially in large cities, to exercise quasi

in public the names Of private persons in an
objectionable manner The freedom of COM

miliner, allows himself il chronicling the
monotonous events Of fashionable party, has
gone far towards establishing this reprehensi-

We have already presented our readers
with our matured opinion npon the policy
of Mr.. JOHNSON, and day By day in his pro-
gress through the country he viudicates in his
downright, manly uttarances the justice Of
our views. Take for example, the extract
re have quoted at the Lead OF this article,
which finds an echo in the heart Of the South
Yes, we do "want to return" We failed at
OH effort, honestly and braVeIy made, to es-
tablish separate nationality, and in pursuit
Of tranquility and larger liberty than We
now enjoy, We desire to resume our Federal
relations and to devote ourselves to the de-
ve!opment of the arts Of peace. and the fasto-
ration Of our fallen fortunes.
The feeling is natural the profession hon
est; and the impeachment OF our sincerity
when really founded on belief, shows little
knowledge Of human nature We desire to
return, but precisely as Mr.. JOHNSON tells the
North udegrsded and able to look the
world in the face and SAP we are as undegraded
in defeat as we were resouts in war. The
reception Of his manly utterances Oh this
point shows US tnat be was understood by
his audience and We can assure him, and
those who heard him that it is precisely be-

A Good Beginning.

The Richmond Examiner Of yesterday CON-
tains two statements Of fact Of peculiar and
general interest II states that General SCAc-
FIELD was called upon by the Mayor of Rich
moud, few days since relative to a n.ieCie-
rneanor committed by soldier. The Mayor
stated thar under General Terry adn1iuistra-
ton, that officer has not allowed the civil au~
thorities to exercise Jurisdiction, and he
wished to know if the same order was still TO
be enforced General ScHoFIELD replied,
that any soldier in this department violating
State OF municipal Laws would be left to the
proper tribunal to be dealt with as other Of
tenders.
This decision removes a source Of frequent
irritation, and shows that TERRY S successor
comes among us in . more liberal frame Ut
mind than was ever enjoyed by his unjust and
heartily detestel predecessor. The second IN
stance is one which the public will never
hear through the columns OF the Radica! JOUR

people of Norfolk soms authoritative diree-
