EDITOR CHRONICLE The bill granting
negro suffrage in the District of Columbia
has, as you are aware, passed the House
by more than two thirds vote. The
next question is, will the Senate pass it
This think no one doubts, although,
they may amend itso that only those can
vote who have been in the army, and
those that can read and write. Again.
Will the President approve it? Judge
Kelley, of Pa, declared N his speech,
that the President had assured him per-
sonally that he was in favor of the bill.
However this may be, do not think he
will oppose what the House by so deci-
ded majority have shown to be their
wishes.
The House committee on Invalid pen
sions, have made an adverse report on
the petition of Mrs. Mary MeLain. The
petition sets forth, that Captain AcLain,
while he was commissioned only as Cap
tain was at the time of his death, acting
as Lieutenant Colonel, and prays that the
widow may receive a pensin correspond
ing to the command in which he was act
ing at the time of his death. The report
states that during the war, many officers

command than that for which they were
mustered, and that the committee is op-
posed to granting pensions for higher
rank than that in which the officer was
actually commissioned. As there was no
opposition to the report in the House, it
is supposed that all similar cases before
the committee will be disposed of in the
same way.
In view of the large number of claims,
coming from citizens of States lately in re-
bellion, growing out of the destruction of,
or damage to property by the army or na-
Wy while engaged in suppressing the in
surrection, and difficulty met with in de-
termining with a sufficient degree of GER
tainty the question of individual loyalty;
every claimant exhibiting some proof of
his devotion and suffering in the cause of
the Government, the Committee of
Claims recommend to the House the adop-
ton of the following resolution.
'sRssoLvsd: That until otherwise order
ed, the Committee of Claims be instruct
ed to reject all claims referred to them
for examination, by citizens of any of the
States lately in rebellion, growing out of
the destruction or appropriation of, or
damage to, property by the army or navy
while engaged in suppressing the rebell-
ion.
The reception at the White House was
well attended last evening
Among the distinguished persons present
we're many of the Foreign Ministers,
Members of the Cabinet, Senators, Rep
Major Generals and other
distinguished officers, besides great
number of citizens.
Last evening, the widow of the late
stephen A. Douglas, was united in matri-
nony with BreVet, Brig. Gen. Robert
Williams, U. S. A.
The weather is quite cold here and the
now is falling. OCCASIONAL"

A Converted Purse.

A Methodist laborer of Wesley's time,
Capt. Webb, when any one informed him
of the conversion of a rich man, was in
the habit of asking, ''Is his purse c0nvert-
ed" Without the conversion of his
purse, the good captain could give no
credit to the conversion of the man. In
this he agreed with DR.. Adam Clarke,
who used to say, "He did not believe in
the religion that cost man nothing"
A member of the church session, of
long experience and great piety, once re-
marked, that it was his habit to ask can
didates for, admission to the church,
what proportion of your property do
you devote to the special service of GOd?'
and by the answer to that question, he
could predict with almost entire certain
ty the future usefulness of that man as a
member of the church. With all the in
crease of Christian iberality which we
have rejoieed to notice, during the past
few years it IS still true, that very small
proportion of the members of Christian
churches give even title of their income
to the service of God.
The giving is done by few, and some
of this few do not perform their duty in
this matter. The religion that costs
man nothing, is net likely to benefit him
much; and the man who gets rich bv de-
frauding God in tithes and offerings, will
find the needles eye too small for the
camel to get through into heaven, when
his journey is ended, and he is hoping to
take his share of the heavenly inheri
tance.

WHOLE NO. 2575.

first session after the ratification of this
amendment by the required number of
States, shall provide by law for the actu-
al enumeration shall be separately made
in q general census of the population Of
all the States within every subsequent
term of ten years, in such manner as Con-
gress may by law direct. The number of
representatives shall not exceed one for
every 125,000 of actual population, but
each State shall have at least one repre-
sentative"
Mr.. Broomall, Of Pennsylvania, moved
to amend the original proposition by
striking out after the word provided, and
inserting that:
Whenever, by the constitution or laws
of any State, the right of suffrage shall be
denied any proportion Of its male citizens,
over the age of twenty-one years, the
same proportion of its entire population
shall be excluded from its basis of repre-
sentation."
In addition to these propositions is the
Presidents amendment, already printed,
as follows:
Representatives shall be apportioned
among the several States which may be
included within the Union according to
ihe number of qualified voters in each
State. Direct taxes shall be apportioned
among the several States which may be
included within this Union according to
the value of all taxable property in each
State"

A Grand Summing Up.

The subjoined fine passage of truth
full eloquence occurs in a recen
speech made in Congress, on the Recon
struction question, by Mr.. Shellabarger
member from the Franklin district il
this State. His graphic delineation o.
rebel villainy, treason and atrocity, is not
oYerdrawn. He says:
Does the gentleman yet ask for " the
specific act" that deprived these State:
of all the rights of States and made
them enemies ?" l once more answer
him in the words of the Supreme Court
that the specific acts we've, they cause
lessly waged war against their own Gov
ernment 6 war which all the world ae-
knowledge to have been the greatest civ
il war known in the history of the hu-
man race" That war was waged by
these people Gas States" and it went
through long, dreary years. In it they
threw off and defied the authority of your
Constitution and Government; they OBJ
liberated from their State Constitutions
and laws every vestige of recognition of
your Government they discarded all
official oaths, and took instead oaths to
support your eDemy's government. They
seized, in their States, all the nations
property; their Senators and Represen-
tatives in your Congress insulted, banter
ed, defed and then left you; they ex-
PEELED from their land or assassinated
cry every inhabitant of known loyalty :;
they betrayed and surrendered your ar
mics; they passed sequestration and
other acts in hagitious violation of the
law of nations, making every citizen of
the United States an alien enemy, and
placing in the treasury of the rebellion
all money and property due such citizens.
They framed iniquity and universal MUIR
der into law. They besieged, for years,
your capital, and sent your bleeding ar
mics, in route, back here upon the very
of your national power. Their
pirates burned your unarmed commerce
upon every sea. They carved the bones
0f your unburied heroes into ornaments,
and drank from goblets made from their
skulls. They poisoned your fountains,
put mines uuder your soldiers prisons,
organized bands whose leaders were con-
,ealed in your homes, and whose COM
missions ordered the torch and yellow
ever to be carried to your cities,
Ind to your women and children
They planned one universal bonfire of |
he North from Lake Ontario to Missou- |
i. They murdered by systems Of starva-
ion and exposure sixty thousand of your
ons, as brave and heroic martyrs as ever
we're. They destroyed in the FIVE years
f horrid war another army so large that
would reach almost around the globe |
n marching columns; and then to give
he internal drama a fitting close, and to
oncentrate into one crime all that is
riminal in crime, and all that is detesta-
lie in barbarism, they killed the Presi-
ent of the United States.

We will give you, Mr.. Editor, short ac-
count of what has been done in cheese in
Mesopotamia, the last season. We commen-
ced operations on the 10th of April last, and
closed up the 9TH of December following
During that time we took in and worked two
hundred and forty-seven thousand nine hun
dred and twenty-seven (247, ,927) gallons of
milk, making two hundred and sixty-six
thousand eight hundred and ffty-three $685.
S53) pounds of cheese, sale weight, bringing
forty thousand nine hundred and sixty-two
dollars and thirty-one cents, (S40, 1862 BIZ
This statement Is not made boastingly, but
rather apologetically, to our customers, as
we certainly have been very unfortunate in
making sales. Some of our customers, at
least, are aware that we have sharp men as
cheese buyers to run against. And there is
occasionally one who is not sharp enough to
gain his point fairly, will stoOp to unfairness.
But we hope to meet with better success in
this line next season, when we also hope to
enjoy the favors of our old customers.
Respectfully, Yours,
Z. G. COX.

WASTED TIME.

Alone in the dark and silent night
With the heavy thoughts of vanished year.
When evil deeds come back to sight.
And good deeds rise with a welcome cheer;
Alone with the spetres Of the past,
That come with the old years dying chime,
There glooms one shadow. dark and vast.
The shadow Of Wasted Time.
The chances of happiness cast away,
The oppOrtunl les never sought,
The good resolves that every day
Have died in the impotence Of thought;
The slow advance and the backward step
In the rugged path we have striven to climb
How they furroW the brow and pale the lip,
When We talk with Wasted Time.
What are we now ? what had we been 2
Had we boarded time as the miser's gold.
Striving hemeed to win,
Through the summers heat and the winter 8 cold
Shrinking from nought that the world could do
Fearing nought but the touch of crime;
Laboring, struggling all seasons through,
And knowing no Wasted Time.
Who shall recallthe vanished years:
Who shall hold back this ebbinE tide
That leaves US remorse. and shame, and tears,
And washes away all things beside?
Who shall give the strength cen now,
To leave forever this holiday rhyme,
To shake of the sloth from heart and brow,
And battle with Wasted Time.
The years that pass come not again.
The things that die no life renew;
But even from the rust Of his cankering cnain
A golden truth is glimmering through;
That to him who learns from errors past.
And turns away with strength sublime,
And maketh year outdo the last,
There is no Wasted Time.

Once more take her as gift
From Thy most gracious hand,
Since her sweet feet had well nigh reached
The shores of that far land.
From which our loved ones ne'er return,
No childish footsteps stray,
No barque, once str randed on that shore,
Fer drifts again this way.
Once more press her to my breast
Our darling only one
And thank Thee that Thy mercy spared
The light of our dear home.
-Four summers have around her way
Their wealth Of beauty thrown;
-Four winters we have shielded her
From chilling wind and storm.
And now. while thro' long days and nights
We watched her failing eye,
May God forgive me that thought
could not see her die.
Forgive that from my hear and lip
Went up such anxious prayer.
For her sweet life, when well knew
How full 'twould be of care.
Could some bright angel from the sky
On shining wing drew near,
And folding her to his white breast,
Have borne her from me here;
And could her beautiful dark eyes
And red lips backward smiled,
And so have faded from my sight,
IcOuld have spared my child.
could have lived and borne her loss
Have calmly laid aside
The dainty robes l fashioned her,
In tenderness and pride
Knowing she'd never need them more
Feeling amid it ALL
That on loving angel breast
She passed beyond recall.
All was my faith too dim to see
The angel waiting there
Outside earth's misty bars, to known
If Heaven would heed my prayerG
o human hearts, how frail, how weak,
Fearful and faithless arel
God help us, since trials must come,
Each coming one to bearl

STRANGE BRIDAL SToRY.-A strange sto,
ry is told of two sisters at Berlin. About
three years ago one of these young ladies
was engaged to be married, but on the
bridal morning became so i'll that she
could not possibly go to the church. The
bridegroom was a desirable one, and he
was fish who, it seems, had not easily
been caught. There was, therefore, great
danger in delay, so instead of postponing
the marriage, the second sister, covering
herself with long veil, personated the
first, and duly went through the ceremo-
ny. The moment it was over she trans
fered the bridal dress and ornaments to
her sister, who vas thus considered to
have all proper claim to this husband she
married by proxy. 1t is only recently
that discovery has been made of the
real facts, and proceedings are about to
be taken not only in the civil, but also in
the criminal courts Of Berlin. =

By the arrival of the steamer Moro
Castle at New York, from Havanna on
the 9th, We learn that the royal decree
has been received Disappearing the for
nation of society, tending 10 suppress
| the slave trade, and reprimanding the
Captain General for countenancing it,
and ordering its suppression.
Paris fashions state that many ladies
are trying to bring in some shorter waists
than those of last season, and the skirts,
unreasonably wide at the lower extrem-
ity, are as far as possible, made to assume
the appearance of being fat around the
body by means of large folds front and
back. The long, white kid gloves, too,
have heen seen once or twice, but besides
their real ugliness, they would be so ex-
Pensive, that there is pause in adopting
them.
The steamer Missouri, which exploded
near the mouth of Green river, on Mon
day, had one hundred and twenty per
sons on board, twenty FIVE of whom were
passengers. The latest information from
Evansville places the loss of life at about
one hundred. The Missouri was one of
the largest passenger steamers on the
river, and valued at 100000.
Gen. Crooke has prevented the sale of
colored man into slavery, in North
Carolina. Are these inVasions of State
rights never to cease? Is military tyrsn-
ny to triumph entirely over our liberties
Is this free country, where white men
can't do what they please with ''niggers"
whom perhaps, they begot? If these
things are to 60 on, there'l be nothing
left for the chivalry but emigration to
the Slave Coast of Africa Traveller.
