recommended them TO several of my friends who
have tried them, and found them greatly beneficial
in the restoration of health. Yours truly

this prejudice by proper tests and for encourage

Privateering.

Spain was the only one of what are
called the Great Powers of Europe
which refused to unite i'm the declara
ton made by the Congress of Paris in
! 1856, that privateering should be abol'
ished among the signers of that dec
laration. Chill was one Of the first
of the American republics to agree to
the abolition. The odd result is that
Chill is, by her agreement, prevented
from fitting out privateers against all
the European Governments except
Spain, inasmuch as the abolition was
restricted to wars between Powers
that had accepted the the declaration
of Paris. The issue will probably be
that, il Spain does not make peace,
her commerce will be swept from the
ocean by the privateers that Chill is
fitting out in all the chief ports of the
world. Republicans throughout the
world will not regret this bit of poeti-
cal justice, appropriately visited on
the last Of the civilized nations to help
suppress the slave trade.
1t will be remembered that the
United States refused to unite in the
declaration against privateering, un-
less the other Powers would add to it
clause exempting from seizure, in
case of war, all private property on
the sea. This provision, proposed by
Mr.. Marcy for the protection of our
commerce against the then overpow.
eringly superior navies Of England
and France, did not receive the assent
of those Powers, and the United States
Government therefore retains the
right TO fit out privateers, right
which, on moral grounds, it does not
prize, as the expressed opinions of our
public men in past years, from Frank
lin to the statesmen Of this day, sufi-
ciently prove, but which it would will
lingly resign, if the other Powers
would unite in the benignant law, APP
proved by every consideration of hu-
manity and good policy, that the pri-
vate property of those not actually
Engaged in war should go free, for the
Of the commerce of the
world.

TURNING THEM OUT.

A special from Washington to the ST.
Louis Democrat, of yesterday, furnishes
this news: 1t may be of interest to
JOHNSON office seekers to learn that the
President has entrusted to his private
Secretary, Mr.. COOPER, the dirty work OF
removing from Office men who do not
support my policy" and the appoint
ment to the vacancies Of those who do.
An ex-army officer, personal friend OF
the Private Secretary, called at the
White House to-day to pay him a friendly
visit. After half an hours conversation
on general topics, Mr.. COOPER asked his
friend what brought him to Washington 7
if he wanted an office that if he did,
he could have one in Minnesota He
furthermore informed his military friend
that the President had placed in his
hands the whole management of the sub
ordinate offices throughout the country,
and that he was going to make a clean
sweep of the Radicals.

VERY sHREWD.

The reports and evidence on the Mem
phis riots will not be presented during
this session. 1t is understood however,
that the Special Committee had decided
TO recommend an increase of military
force in the South. Dispatch.
The reason why no report Of the
Memphis riots will be made this session,
is the reason that lies at the bottom of all
Radical policy. The report will involve
an onslaught upon the Irish of this city.
and as the Radicals are billing and COO
ing with the Fenians for their support at
the approaching elections, it might cost
them great many votes. Let them first
secure the Irish vote, and then the Irish
generally will catch it.

UNCERTAIN.

JEFFERSON DAVIS is big elephant to
his keepers. A special to the ST. Louis
Republican of yesterday, has this in
formation: 1t is not decided whether the
House Judiciary Committee will report
on the JEFF DAVIS case or not. So far
they have come to the conclusion that
the evidence tend to involve DAVIS in
the conspiracy to assassinate President
LINCOLN, but that the chain of testimony
is not sufficient to sustain the charge in
a trial in civil court. Several hundred
pages Of evidence has been taken during
the investigation.

"oLD THAD.p ON THE LOUISIANA
REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT. Y

Some uneasy Radicals, says the st.
Louis Republican, who want to revolu-

are, it is we'll known, trying to resurrect
the dead and buried Convention which
met under General BANKS auspices IN
1864. A New Orleans plenipotentiary,
representing these Jacobins, waited on
TuApDEus STEVENS at Washington. The
report is that the envoy met with a most
ungracious reception. His object was
to get the grim old chief to cheer the
fame with the light of his countenancf.
The emissary urged that if this boon was
denied, Louisiana Radicalism would re-
main as dead as the defunct Convention.
STEVENS was not moved either by the
rhetoric or the not remarkably proposes
sing exterior of this representative OF
Louisiana Jacobinism, and responded,
rather profanely but enthusiastically,
as follows: "What revive that Id

A thirty Year., Mystery cleared Up.

Over thirty years ago there was con-
siderable excitement in Cecil county,
Nd, on account Of the sudden disappear
snce Of widow lady named Patty Polk,
who resided about four miles from Elk
ton. She was last seen going into a
thicket near her house where two men
had just passed. All the search for her
was fruitless. After a reasonable time
had elapsed, letters Of administration on
her effects were issued, and in settling
up the estate, the administrator was I'M
able TO find note drawn by one Of the
men who had been seen 10 60 into the
thicket The note was known 70 have
been in her possession a short time be-
fore her disappearance. This aroused
suspicion and the two men were arrested,
