An AnouIrer,s Doubts.

The lVashington County Nelos is response
Bile for the following. As Marietta has the
reputation of moral and religious town,
we suppose an anecdote originating in that
locality may be safely repeated:
In town not many thousand miles from
Marietta there was held a protracIed meet
ing. Much interest was felt in religious
things, and opportunity was given to speak
to all who desired it. One evening the
church was filled with quiet and atten-
tive audience. A solemn and impressive
discourse was delivered by the Rev. Mr..
=, after which, as was usual the invita-
tiOn to speak was given to any who had a
word of counsel to add, or who wished to
relate something of their own personal ex-
perlence. Shortly, a young man, with a
decidedly bacEwoods air, arose, his cOun-
tenaDce expressive of the deepest anxiety,
and, laying his hand upon his heart, after
moments hesitation, he said: Brethren,
feel, feel-wail, sometimes I think it's
religion, and sometimes think it's toorn,S."

One Brother Sh ooIs another.

On the 10th inst, two brothers, sons of
Samuel Boyer. who resides about six miles
west of Fremont, Ohio, went out into the
woods to shoot quail, the eldest, about fif-
teen years of age, carrying shot gun. In
endeavoring to start quail from brush
heap the youngest boy walked around on
one side while the other watched for the
quail with the hammer of the gun set. By
some means the gun was discharged while
in point blank range of the younger Boyer,
and the whole charge of shot entered his
breast, many penetrating the heart, causing
instant death. 1-. -, ,..t

Tyler and Fillmore Sustained by
H-.H the People.

By whig politicians, President TYLER
was accused of having deserted the Wing
party. The people, however, sustained
him in the election of JAMES *. Polk to
the Presidency. President FILLMORE was
denounced by Wing politicians as having
deserted the Whig party, by approving the
Compromise measures. He, too, was sus-
tanned by the people in the election of
FRANKLIN PIERCE to the Presidency, on a
Platform indorsing President FILLMoRE's
approval of the Compromise measures. So,
too, viii the people sustain President
JOHNSON in his championship of the Con-
stitution, the Union, and the people. His
Endorsement by them is as certain as the
visits of the Tax-gatherer and Death.

THE OLD FLAG,
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1866-02-26

The Buffalo Commercial (Rep,), in an ar
ticle indorsing the Presidents veto of the
Freedmen's Bureau bill, says:
"But one step now remains to complete
the good work which has been so auspi-
ciously entered upon aad conducted by the
President, and that Is, that he issue the
final proclamation Of peace, whichis alone
needed to throw around the States the full
and final restoration of their federal rights.
Such step would at once. put an end to
all doubts and uncertainties which have
been so industriously thrown around the
problem of reconstruction, and would sim
plify the question of Congressional juris-
diction, concerning which our nationalleg-
islatori are having so much unnecessary

The Cabinet n Unit with PreSI-
dent Johnson.

Postmaster-G General DENNIsoN, in his
New York speech on the night of the 22d
of February. said that the programme that
President JOHNSON is carrying out "for the
reconstruction of the Southern States" is
the same in ''the essential features" that
President LINCOLN had adopted, and that
it is "a programme sanctioned by every
member of the present Cabinet. Don't
the followers of STEVENS, SUMNER and
PHILLIPs, then, repudiate President LIN
coins policy? Can the Republicans fol-
low the lead Of those men and at the same
time vindicate a consistent devotion to
whatthey heretofore alleged was the wise
craftsmanship OF President LINCOLN?

mann from a Rurn.

The Findleg Courier records the recent
death of Miss Alice Henderson, of Biglick
township, Hancock county. Several weeks
since, she got up in the morning, kindled a
fire, and while in the act OF drawing mo-
lasses from a barrel near the stove, her
clothes caught fire and burned entirely off.
She fingered in great agony about three
weeks and then expired. The Courier says
she was about seventeen years of age, a
very handsome and interesting young lady.

WHY islt that Republicans here in the
Capital CITY have not yet got up meeting
iudorsIng President JoHNsoN's veto and bis
Reorganization policy9 Has he no friends
or supporters In the Republican party OF
this city? II he has they should certainly
move at once in the matter OF his indorse-
nisnt. The question now to be decided is,
whether he shall be sustained or whether
the Disnnionists SrEvENs, SUMNER and
PHIBLIPs shall be sustainedp Postmaster
General DENNIsoN thought this matter Of
so much Importance, as did Secretary
SEWARD, as to attend the Overwhelming
meeting in New York City on the night Of
the 22d of February, called to iudorse the
President, to publicly declare his approval
Of the veto, and to testify that President
Johnson has "adopted and has executed,
and Is now executing, in good faith, the
essential features of his martyred prede-
cessor,s programme for the reconstruction
OF the insurgent States, programme sane
toned by every member Of his Cabinet" = 'l Z
TO Republicans of Columbus we COM
mend this fact. If President JOHNSON has
"adopted and has executed, and is now
executing, in good faith, the essential fea-
lures" Of President LIScoIN's programme
for the reconstruction of the insurgent
States-a programme sanctioned by every
member OF his Cabinet'-what more do
they. want? Did they not turn out en-
masse when President LINcoLN's remains
Law in state in the State Capitol, and put on
an air OF humiliation and mourning be-
cause he had been stricken down by the
hand of an assassin, at a time when they
professed to believe that he was especially
needed to complete the great work ofthe
d ,cification of the Union? viii they not,
then, when they have been assured by the
President and by Postmaster General DEM
NIsoN. that President JOHNSON has taken
un aud is faithfully carrying out President
LlNcoLN's programme for that tpaeitication,
resolve themselves into public meeting
and give him hearty commentator for his
fidelity and patriotism? ..tr..-
Postmaster General DENNIsoN told the
New Workers, that it was right that that
'.great city should lose no time in pro-
nouneing its opinion upon the political
situation Of the country" If it is right
that the citizens of New York should has
ten to do this, can the Republicans Of Co.
Iumbus--the capital of the State and the
home of Postmaster General DENNIsoN-
find justification in delayiD to do so?

In Character.

The opposition of the Ohio State journal
to President JoHNsoN's veto and to his 22d
Of February speech is perfectly in charac-
TER. That same journal gave publicity
without dissent, to the suggestion that
President LINCOLN ought to be assassinated,
should he undertake to pursue somewhat
lenient course toward the Southern people.

A great bill is offered at the Athcneum Tonight
The drama of Old Phil's Birthday. which on its first
presentation was receive with so much fRvorywiH
be repro iucod this evening With tho same cast as
before. Mr.. Couldock as Phil Stapleton enacts in
this play one of those parts in which he is inmta
ble While ho amuses by his quaint exptessors, he
touches the strong chords Of deep and overpowcrng
sympathy. Miss Couldocks impersonation Of Marion
Hararess is also admirable for its animation and
spirit, and firm unfalterng trust in the object Of
affection, when every other friend had fOrsaken
him.. r.-.. .. ,..
Mr. Nasle, as Old Phil's son, sustains himself as
usual with credit and pOrtrays the character with
fidelity, maintaining, in the seyerest trial to which
young and susceptible nature could be subjected
the heroic determination not to break bis plighted
faith. Mr.. Ellser appears in this play as the mer-
chant IIardress, whom he represents with that skill
and power which distinguish him in every charac-
ter he essays to personate The entire cast is such
as to clearly develop the plot, and give its thrilling
scenes due prominence.
Thsp otin Old Pills Birthday makes aromancs
of absorbing interest, and one watches for the de-
noument with intense anxiety. In some respects 1t
resembles the plot in tho Chimney Corner, only that
the final development is less obvious tho play pro-
ceeds and more unexpected. But when the unrav-
cling of the knot does take place. ana the anxiety
of the auditor Is relieved, he is doubly gratifed
with the delicate manner in which the disclosure is
made, its ugly features apparently concealed, and
hotriumph Of innocence secured. II is an excel
lent drama and one that will bear frequent repet-
ton before an intelligent audience. But we are told
that il is to be played tonight for the last time at
the Atheneum this season. Sl hG
The entertainment tonight will conclude with the
comedy of Peggy Green, which, on its recent pro-
duction at the Atheneum. kept the audience in a
merry mood fronits beginning TO its close. Taken
in connection With Old Pills Birthday. it would be
difficult to imagine better dramatic and comic en-
tertainment.

tVhat should be Remembered.

Those persons who are disposed to ques-
ton the propriety of President JOHNSON
making the speech he did on the night oi
the. 22d of February, should remember that
he addressed the members of Congress in
his annual message in most unexceptiona-
bic terms. He was deferential TO them ex-
ceedingly. He was none the less so in his
message communicating to the Senate Cen
eraf GRANTS report touching the condition
of the South. SO again he was in his veto
message. What effect had it all upon the
Radicals in Congress? Itemboidened them
in theirpractical work of Disunion. They
stigmatized the President as usurper,
pointed to him as an obstacle that should
be Qot out of the way-as man whose
offense wotle ,find no more than just expia-
ton in behesding -impeached his integrity,
and drcherished the purpose of turning him
outof, the Office he holds. Its idle to waste
mild words on such conspirators. They
only embolden them, and throughout the
country they were backed up by tanati-
cal-press and fanatical members OF Legis-
lathres. Therefore, it was eminently prop
er that the President should talk to the
people in plain and direct language, and
let them know who are the arch-conspira-
tors against Union and tranquility and
what devilish purposes they are animated
by. 1t is no time for over-fastidiousness.
The young man who refused to rescue
Young lady from drowning because he had
Observation-Disclosures to her, may have been
excessively polite; but he was criminal
fool. for il he had been less polite he could
have saved life. Should the President
follow this fellows example, and out Of
regard 70 a supposed idea of dignity re-
main silent and allow STEVENS, SUM
NERi and PHmLIPs to consnmmate their
villalny while he could thwart them in
theirFell work by telling the people just
what they are doing? .,r.
