Eating Memory's bitter fruit;
Living the old times again.

.LAsT WORDS,

The last words OF great men are generally
supposed to possess extraordinary signif-
canoe, but the truth is, that while sometimes
a good thing is said by man just on the
eve Of departure to another world in most
cases the faculties Of the brain are disor-
dered before the faculty Of speech has left
the dying man, and he is not conscious Of
the import Of his own words, and very rarely
has a consciousness that they must be his
last words when he pronounces them. About
the only last words" that can be relied on
as an intelligent expression Of the thoughts
and feelings Of sane man in full possession
of his faculties, such as they may be, are
those spoken on the gallows by him who
knows that he is about to leave the presence
of the hangman and tho surrounding assem-
blage for the presence Of his Maker
But when one dies of disease or the in
firmities of age, the brain may lose its active
power before the organs Of speech have
ceased to perform their functions, in a more
or less imperfect manner. The last words Of
General ScoTT are thus reported:
About twenty-five minutes before his
death he addressed his hostler, saying,
JAMES, how is the horse" He is we'll,
General" "Take care Of him, JAMES" said
the dying hero, and these were the last intel
ligible words he uttered.
By accident plea for good care Of the
horse dropped from great mans lips, and
we hope that this injunction IN ertremiS may
have its due effect in diminishing cruelty to
animals. Many a man in the army or out OF
It will sometimes be reminded by General
SCorT's last words, to "take care" Of his
horse. 1t is somewhat singular, after all,
that General Soorrs last expressions should
relate to the horse, in view Of his known
opinion that the infantry was by far the SUI
perior arm of the service and of his discour.
agement of the cavalry force at the begin.
ming of our civil war. Whether his views
changed on this subject or not before his
death we are unable to say. AT any rate he
had proper regard for his own charger, and
his injunction to "James will prove bless
ing to horse flesh.
General TAYLoR's last words were addressed
to one Of his consulting physicians, DIR. HALL
of this city, and they were, doctor, you
have made q good fight, but it won't stand, u
showing that he was fully aware his death
was near. ...

they to be exempt from their share ofthe guilt
We should despise men who would thus stul
tify and dishonor themselves and 70 purchase
power at such price, would render the PEG
pie Of the South unworthy tn name Of
American, and unfit 70 sit in councils with
and whole-souled races. The
test oath now disqualifes those who have
participated voluntarily in treason; IL was
passed by the loyal people Of the nation; and
those who rebelled can have no just cause Of
complaint against il. 1t is ample protection,
and will not be repealed until the future is
secure from danger. To ask the people Of
the South to enforce in the Constitution pains
and penalties upon some in order to relieve
themselves, degrades those who proifer the
terms, as it will degrade those who accept
them. Congress has never used its power to
alter, correct, or condemn one act Of THE
PRRsrDEST in his task Of restoration. By so
doing it has given to that policy the indorse-
ment Of its tacit assent. Had il found any
thing to change, anything to censure, any
thing to stop, it would readily have done so.
This is the highest tribute that could be paid
to the course Of the Executive, for it is tri-
butte ofrespect from an avowed opponent. HE
PRESIDENT has been denounced by radicals
in and out Of Congress because he did not
make negro suffrage feature Of restoration;
but in this, he also has been upheld by Con-
gress, as that body has never dared to init
mate such a condition Of readmission to the

Restoring Them to Power.

One ofthe Faneuil Hall resolutions protests
against the restoration of the southern PEG,
pie to political power. Now, how can you
prevent eight millions of people, possessing
the cotton region of the world, and much
rice, sugar and tobacco lands, from being a
political power? If you disfranchise them
they will still have a political power, just
asa negative pole Of an electric battery
has its forcej or as a negatively charged
cloud will move the electric forces Of the
atmosphere, so would a disfrancbised State
or States move the political force Of the
Government. 1t is not a question OF
restoring them to power" but Of pre-
venting them from becoming a dangerous
power. This is what our statesmen must
solve. The only way to prevent any man
from being political power under a Govern
ment like ours is to shoot or hang him; and
even then, perhaps, like john BRowN, his
soul will go marching on" to trouble the
councils Of the Government that thought to
annihilate him.
