Hon. Thomas EwING, of Ohio, not
long since wrote letter, which was re-
produced all over the country, in which
he took strong ground in favor of the
policy of restoration advocated by the
President, and denounced Congress as
an unconstitutional body, and pro-
nounced its acts to be of at least ques-
tionable validity. At the recent cleo
ton in Ohio, Mr.. EwING is said to have
voted the radical ticket.

THE VINTAGE OF 1866 According to
the Journal dAgriculture Pratiqae. good
authority, the vintage of the present year
will probably be about $4,000, 900 hectolitres,
(the hectolitre is rather more than 90 gal
Ions third less than that of last year, and
the quality will be inferior to that of 1858,
which was not very good year, The re-
ports, however, from the Medoc districts,
state that few, days fine weather have
greatly improved the vineyards, and that the
expectation now is that the quantity will
be larger than at one time had been thought
possible, and the quality :" fair and nlarketa-
ble." As to the stock of wines that will re-
main in hand for next year, it is estimated
BY authorities in these matters at 100000
hectolitres.

A LONG AND USEFUL LIFE.-A work
ing printer, named Thomas O'Flanagan,
has just died, in Dublin, at the age of
ninety, whose career was somewhat Gu
rious and interesting. He was actively
employed as compositor up to liter
ally within a few hours of his death, on
the Nation newspaper, whose Irish 'pa-
triotic' opinions he shared. Seventy
years ago he was journeyman printer
on the Press, the then organ of the
United Irishnan,'' and used to boast
that he had, with his own hands, "set
up" the manuscript of Lord Edward
Fitzgerland. O'Flanagan at that time,
as q sworn brother, was one of the
armed bodyguard of the Geraldine, and
took part in an encounter with Major
SIR and his force, in the neighborhood
of Thomas-streets, in Dublin. On a
subsequent occasion he saved Major
Sirr's life, when one disaffected was
about to fire upon him from window,
by striking the pistol out of the mans
hand. O'Flanagan spent subsequent
portion of his life in London, and filled
the responsible position as chief prin-
ter on the staff of the Morning Chron-
icle, in its best days. As he had
been acquainted with Lord Edward
Fitzgerland, Nappa Tandy, Arthur
O'Conner, and Emmett during one Irish
crisis, so was he, at later period, in
ls4s, familiarity known to Gaven Duffy,
Thomas Davis, and John Mitchell, as
one of the Nation staff. In ls4S he
was arrested, along with the others en-
ployed on the paper whenit was seized,
OH the eve of the Ballingarry emeute
after the suspension of the hdbeds cor
pus act, but was detained in prison only
a few days, there being no charge
against him or his fellow printers, of
completely in the insurrection. When,
shortly afterwards, an entertainment
was given by his colleagues to celebrate
his fiftieth anniversary as journeyman
printer, it was not supposed that he
would retain his physical and mental
powers, and be able to earn his daily
bread, as he did, for close upon twenty
years more. He was regarded with
marked affection by his employers and
daily associates, on account of his ven
cradle age, intelligence, and amiability,
and they hurled him with every token
| of respect.

GOV. PERRY's LETTER ON THE CONSTITUTION.
AL AMENDMENT.

AL AMENDMENT.
CHARLESTON, S. C., Nov. 5.-Ex-Provis-
ionalGovernOr Perry publishes long letter
addressed to Charles W. Woodward of Phil
adelphia. in reply to letter from that gen.
tleman, urging South Carolina to ratify the
Constitutional Amendment. Governor Perry
takes the ground that the Southern States
may he ruined, but cannot be dishonored and
disgraced by their own acts. He expresses
the conviction that the Amendment can new
er gain the assent of three-fourths of the
States. He reviews sections of the Amend
ment seriatim, and gives his views against
each at some length. He closes his letter in
these words: Let me conclude by assuring
you that as feeble as South Carolina may he
and as powerless as you say she is to protect
herself, she is nevertheless able to maintain
amid all her expressions her honor unsuIlied,
and will never voluntarily accept her own
degradation"

REw4HDuG SOLDIERS.

While President johnson is promoting
the officers who embrace my policy" he
is wit holding from private soldiers the
bounties authorized by Congress. Hop
ing that he might discover some defect in
the law, he appointed a commission to
ascertain if it would justify the payment
of bounties." The commission report
ed favorabIy, but the report has been
kept from the public that the President
might prevent the payment Of bounties
until after the elections. The object of
course is to cast upon the Republican
party the odium of having enacted a de-
feetive law in order to prevent its obtain
ing the good will which might grow out
of a payment Of bounties
Soldiers, it is thus that a rebel loving

IF this theory is true, rebel soldiers

HOly. C. S. HAMILTON, our Congressional
nominee, having received a letter from
several soldiers of this county, inquiring
his views on the bounty bills brought be-
fore the late Congress, has replied in a long
letter giving his views on that subject and
the political situation generally. Mr..
HAMILTON takes strong grounds in favor
of the equalization of bounties, and, if
elected, would advocate the passage fGen.
SCHENCK's bill which he prefers to all 9TH
ers thus far introduced. Mr.. HAMILTON
thus fully commits himself to the interests
of the soldiers of this District, and they
win find him a friend on whom they can
rely. The remainder of the letter is devo-
ted to q discussion of the Constitu-
tional Amendment and ably vim
dicates the position taken by the Union
party. Mr.. HAMILTON fully and unequiv-
ocally pledges himself to support the inst
and necessary reconstruction measures of
Congress, and scathingly rebukes the soph-
istry and corruption ofthe Bread-and-but-
ter johnson Democracy.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1866-09-07

The Herald thinks the "Jacobin Rad
ieaI Congress" committed a great incon-
sistency in voting bounties to soldiers and
then turning around and taxing them to
pay their increase of salary and the ex-
penses ofthe Freedmens' Bureau. Now if
were not for the HeraLd's party in the
South no Freedmens' Bureau would be
necessary, nor would the strong arm of
Government have to be iDterposed to pro-
tect loyalty, whether under black or
white skin, from being shot, hung, burn
ed, starved and otherwise prosecuted as a
public nuisance and crime. Nor would
it be necessary to have any military es-
tablishment there at all but for the dis
loyalty of the Southern States. In the
next place, the bill to increase salaries Of
Congressman was a Democratic measure
throughout. being carried by Democratic
votes and signed by Democratic Presi-
dent johnson The Herald ought to be
careful how it pitches into Andy and his
measures.

We understand the Herald to admit t
to be unconstitutional to deprive rebels,
no matter how deeply dyed in treason, of
seats in Congress. This point is there
fore, settled, and We shall now under
stand, that if Gen Reid, its candidate
should be elected to Congress he would
vote to admit to that body Semmes, Ste
phens, Lee, Beauregard, Dick Taylor, or
whomsoever the disIoyal States choose to
send Had he not permitted the Herald
to speak for him we never would have
supposed the General would go so far as
that We are greatly obliged to the Her
aid for the information and shall hence
forth better understand its politics and
those Of its candidate.
The same paper thinks the "Jacobin
Radicals" are committing a dreadful in
justice in attempting to punish traitors
by er post tacto laws. But the Radicals
are doing NJ such thing, nor have they any
need to. There is a law in force, signed
by George Washington, requiring that ev-
cry one convicted of treason shallbe pun
ished with death If this law were ex-
-ecuted it would make vast diminution
in the johnson party, in the South espec-
tally. The ferocious and blood thirsty
Radicals have, therefore, only to go back to
this Washingtonian statute to get all the
vengeance they want
