The President in his speech to the Viz

glnlans sad
81 do not intend to say anything personal, but
at the beginning of the recent gigantic struggle
between different sections North and South, there
were extreme mon North and extreme men South.
This great Government was kept upon the anvil
and hammered during the rebellion, and it has
been hammered since the rebellion, and there
ssems 10 be dIspOstion 20 cOutinHe the huaBering
that sysfem ditrdps oppose Il nOIo,
The Government, in the assertion OF its pow ers
and in maintenance of the principles of the Con-
stitution, has taken hold of one extreme, and,
down the rebellion. Now. as we swing around
the circle of the Union with a fixed and unalter-
able determination to stand by 1t, IRE md the
counterpart or duplicate of the same SPIRIT that
PLACED 70 this feeling and these persons "a tie
South. THIS other ertrcme 'chich stands "a ihe
trav must be got out Of Il. The Government must
stand, mistaken and unmoved upon its basis.
The Government must be preserved"
Who is the President hammering at?
What body of men is it who represent the
counterpart and duplicate of the same
spirit" that prompted the revolution of the
Southern States What is it that he OPP
poses now?' What is the other "extreme
which stands in the way that must be got
out of it?' 1t is the Radical rump Con-
gress under the lead of Sumner and Stevens,
and the Radicals in Tennessee and other
States that are seeking to break down his
administration. The people understand
this and all the sophistry and quibbling
which may be used cannot confuse them in
regard to it.

THE memorialists and their organ pre-
tend to find ceuntenance and comfort in the
Presidents late response to the delegation
from the Virginia Legislature. How does
the following language comport with the
views of men who are attempting to disfran-
chise two-thirds of the people of Tennessee,
and are petitioning the rump Congress of
Stevens and Sumner to refuse admission to
the elected representatives Of the people of
Tennessee?
81 have no doubt that your intentions are to
carry out and comply with every, single principle
laid down in the resolutions you have submitted.
| know that some of you are distrustful but | am
of those who have confidence in the Judgment, in
the integrity, in the intelligence in the virtue of
the great mass of the American people, and hav-
ing such Conscience, am willing to trust them
and thank God that we have not reached that
point where we have lost all confidence in each
other. The spirit of the Government can only be
preserved. we can only become prosperous and
great people, by mutual forbearance and
Upon that faith and confidence alone can the
Government be successfully carried on. On the
cardinal principle of representation 70 which you
refer, L will make single remark. That princi-
pie is inherent il constitutes of the funda1
mental elements of this Government. The rep
resentatives Of the State. and of the people
should have the qualifications prescribed by
the Constitution of the United States, and those
qualifications most unquestionably imply loyalty"
The President has confidence in the pep
pie, he says Do the Radicals of Tennessee?
He says representation in the legislative
branch of the Government is a cardinal and
fundamental principle. He says, too, that
the qualifications for representatives pre-
scented by the Constitution imply loyalty"
Do the memorialists think so?

TIE i1ONfIt1E DOCTts1EE,

II is curious to observe how the quarrG1s Of
despots often work important chauges In the
relations vi different nations to each other
During the progress Of the rebellion, the En-
pcror Of France, ever anxious to extend his
influence and increase lis power, found sup
pie tool Of the Hapsbnrg iami1y, md placed
lin upon the throne Of Mexico. lie knew
very well he was doing an act which would
violate the wel1-cstablished principles and
Mrousc the hntrcd OF the people of the United
States, but lie fondly supposed the "grcat
Republic" " wns rent nsunder, and its power
to yindicate its principles Was forever broken.
A wisr Providence ordered differently, md
when year ago, the rebellion was crushed
out, Napoleon found himself in a decidedlY
unpleasant position. To withdraw his le-
eions Immediately from Mexico would not
comport with the dignity of his empire; but
he at once took pains to let the world know
occupy the country, and that arrangements
were making to eyacuatc rs soon as MaSilnll-
ian could make Ills other little Arrangements
to supply their place with Auattian merce-
naries. Our Government wisely concluded
tto make haste slowly and Iii the meanwhile
to watch carefully the course Of events.
| Within the last month the complications be-
tween Austria, Italy and Prussia have become
so threatening, that a general European war
seems almost inevitable. Napoleon is hurry

mails coincide with the opinions Of these emil
neut statesmen In this matter. Events utter
even more decisive language. The whole
Prussiau army is modified, and thousands of
soldiers are stationed On the Sazony frontier,

pleasant land ut any time. Austria exhibits

twenty-fuur In Wisconsin twenty-eight In
Indiana twenty-five; in Michigan twenty

other articles are unlike in what constitutes
bushcl In different States. All this adds to
the confusion and trouble Of measurements.
Every bug Of grain brought to market, every
wagon lead, every boat or carload has first

has to be gone over again when the buyer
sells The grain OF ships 1t to market.
How very much better and simpler 1t would
be to count by the "cental' or cwt. Then
the price Of IN article would he quoted as so
much per GENITAL or 100 pounds. The market
