What Sort of Stuff !" Rebels ]" are
 made of.

The New York Day Book talks to the Northern Radicals in the right strain, as will be perceived by its article below. It does not mince matters with those fellows, but filings hot-shot into them as often as they present their rotten broadsides to him H stsEsoa fa4 .a9l
 The lunatics and besotted tools, who call Jefferson Davis and others in the South rebels, and fancy that they are go- ing to render this term infamous by con tinual iteration and reiteration, will be re- garded by the next generation as even greater tools than knaves, though 1t IS difficult to suppose them eclipsed in the latter respect. Rebels, torsooth! II is the noblest word in our language--in our pre- sent as we'll as in our past history--and from the nature of things, always will be. however, fools and knayes, and the tools and toadies of despotsm may strive to dis honor it. Who are the rebels in English history Why, the Iampdcns, Crom- wells, Russclls and Sidneys, etc, many of whom died on the scatiold, and at this moment all intelligent men know that whatever there is of good III the English system is the result of the sacrifices and efforts of those illustrious rebels. So in Scotland and Ireland--the Bruces, and W alaces, and Emmets, and Fitzgeralds, are the heroes of history--indeed, we only state simple historical truth that noloyal man is remembered in history save for his crimes and for the purpose of avoidance, as Ava, Jefiereys, and similar loyallsts. Wty even our most clamorolIs loyalists oi this country, Ben. Butler or Joe Holt, would never p,esume to place the loyal Arnold ln the same category with the re bel Washington, or Butler and his loyal rangers above the rebel Schuyler and his rebel tollowers-indecd, as observed, from the nature of things, rebels are tho very salt of the earth and whatever may be the clamor of the loyal for a moment, re- bels are illustrous tor all time. But if will be said that rebels to Republican government are altogether different from rebels to European government Is this so? No, names are nothing, if the things they represent are changed. The people can't rebel against what was and whatpur- ports to be theT government, why the thing is changed, of course. Thus, il Abraham Lincoln would agree to admin ister the true government of the States Jefferson Davis and others would not have been rebels, nor would Washington and Adams, if George III had done so. This pregnant truth this generation may not receive, perhaps, but we believe they will 1t all events, whatever may be the seem ing virtue of to-day, Jefferson Davis anc his brother rebels are as certain of posteri ty as Washington and all the other rebels of history.

MatrimnnY on the Brain,

The Peoples Press, Hernando, Miss, gets off the following:
 The young folks of the present time seem to s'have it mighty bad" about each other, particularly in this county. We individually, self.collectively, per- SC, know of thirty-nine contemplated weddings, in and round Hernando, by the 25th Of December. This is what we call s.crowding the season" but, never the-less. are led to exclaim: go it while your young." We believe in marrying, and marrying young, early and fl necessary we say marry often, for oh, 'tis truly Heavenly bliss (they say) to have about fourteen yards of calico hitched to you for life, one for whom you would as it were, forget all others, and one whose calico-envelopcd form, with her sweet little angel face would meet you at the gate each even | ing as you returned from your days la- bors, with sweet smile and kiss. Even our .sdeyi when he looks upon the softer sex, Is seized with an almost ir- resigtahle desire to enter, as he says, the Dismal Swamp of matrimony.

An Important Decision.

The Probate Court ofSumter county, Alabama, has just rendered a decision touching the validity of investment by administrators, executors and guar dians of the funds they held as such in the bonds of the Confederate States, 'sso- called" which embraces points that will, perhaps, be interesting to parties ill other States. The points of the decision are as follows: ss
 The ordinance of the State Convcn- ton, and the different acts of the Legislature for the protection of ad- ministrators, executors and guardians. are valid; and investment made by them in good faith in late Confederate securities, under color of law, will now be upheld the loss falling upon the estate, and not upon such executors, administrators or guardians.
 Contracts made during the war, which recognized the lawfillness of Confederate bonds and treasury notes, and which were then valid, will not be pronounced void. W
 Collections of debts due an estate, by the personal representatives, in Con- fedcrate treasury notes, vii. be upheld if made in good faith, even though the debt was due before the war, and the notes became worthless in the hands of the administrators. ~ AR
 Where rights had already vested be- fore the surrender, or acts have been performed under the laws then in force the public policy which existed at the time such right accrued, and not pre- sent public policy, will control the question of their legality; and loyalty l to the National Government does not , require interference with such past l transactions, if honestly made, and in accordance with the laws of the State at the time.
 l The administrator in the case, having in good faith sold large amount oi cotton, by the advice and order of the
 Probate Court, in 1863, fora fair price, and havingstaken note for the pur- chase money from the purchaser, which
 was delivered to the guardian of the heirs, and afterward collected by the
 guardian in Confederate money, is not liable to account again for said cotton, although the sale was made with refe-
 renee to the market price in Confede-
 rate money,

Beautiful rest for the weary soul, Earth hath no beauty akin to this! Anthems of gladness forever roll
 Over those halcyon plains of bliss. Down the steeps of life's western hill, . Beautiful sur shine of hope and light, Every shadow and hope dispe,
