Though great man said that swords

Independence, had but small power of

speech; we hold that utterance is a
sublime faculty, that it can set the brain
on fire, and the heart in flame; but to
guide a nation when that nation has
reached its climax of excitement, the
finest utterances will be feeble. 1t was

Mr.. Seward all Right.

10 The Editor Washington Chronictc'
1t seems to us quite strange that SO
much fault should be found with Mr.
Stewards terms of restoration of the
rebel States.
He said, in one of his Auburn speech
es, that 'if they clmc back like the
prodigal son, and desired admission,
he was perfectly willing, for his part,
to receive them and kill the fattcd
calf"
Is anything wrong in these condi-
tons? Let us enquire hone the prodi-
gal came back
1st. He came coiuntdrdy
ID. He came bankrupt.
Sd. He came pcnjtcnL.
4th. He came confcssing has SINS
against Heaven and his father.
5th. He came foregoing the sons
place, and asking only the servants
place.
To comply with Mr. Stewards con.
ditions, the rebel States must come,
1st Voluntarily. But they have
come back only because they were
,chirped back
2d. Bankrupt. They meet this con
dition; but some of them want anoth.
er slice to make up for what they have
squandered or those twin harlots
slavery and rebellion.
3D.. Penitcnt They are Gerry sorry
but it is only because their rebellion
was a faiiure.
4th. Confessing their sins. But ik
the Pharisee, they justify rebellion, o
the going away from their father
house.
9Th. Acknowledging the forfeitur,
of their prerogatives as States; but, in
stead of this, they joldly demand til,
sons place-that is, the same right
and privileges as if they had stayed a
home and behaved themselves.
Now, it seems to us that Mr.. Sew
ards theology is as correct as hi
craftsmanship, and that it would b
well for him to advise Uncle Samue
that kissing these prodigals befor
they have complied with these term
is not orthodox.
The position of Mr.. Seward is evi
IDENTIFY all right We see, however
one objection to it. If we keep on
fatted calf till the prodigal States CON
ply with his terms our calf will hav
become an OK before we can keep tn
feast. Still, on the whole, it will be a
well, perhaps to wait, as Uncle San
has plenty OF corn. New YORK.

of misery and the neatly ftted-up,
comfortable rascmate of the traitor
Davis and his family. 1t is picture
which should be seen by all, for n
more striking contrast has never been
shown. We first behold poor starving
Union prisoners lying around in groups
guarded by the chivalry, who look on
with the greatest indifference. A sem
tinel fires at a poor fellow who has
crossed the dead line, yet even this
does not attract the attention of his
officers. A gallows is seen in the dis
tancc, and cart hauls away those
who could no longer bear up, and died
victims to rebel cruelty. We turn to
Fortress Monroe. What difference
Here is man who, with n single word,
could have alleviated the suiferings at
Andersonville. He is comfortably seat
ed, his wife and family with him, and
everything done to make his 'incarce-
ration" comfortable. The picture is
somewhat burlesqued here, but it is
not the less striking. United States
soldiers crowd around him. He is
famed, waited upon, and his health
inquired after. A guard, obedient tc
the sign, walks carefully and quietly
on mattings. An officer stands neal
to sec that "all persons passing thi
way put on their slippers in order no
to disturb our guest. And TIL il

for Mr.. Morrill, as the successor Cd

was Judge Poland. But very far from
it. With q conversion worthy of n st.

Political.

Col. Forney writes that he has in
formation, upon which he places full
reliance, that u plan of operations has
been agreed upon 10y the Presidents
friends for the purpose of preventing
the different Legislatures of the South,
and even those of the North, from
ratifying the new amendment OF the
National Constitution.
The Norfolk Old Dominion classifies
the political parties in Virginia as Ma
tlonal Union men, radical Union men
and ancient Democrats. The radical
Unionists are said to favor the dis
reimbursement of rebels and the en-
reimbursement of negroes. John Mi
nor Bolts, Judge Underwood and
John L Lewis are leading men in this
party. The ancient democrats, now
as formerly, are secessionists.
We take the following political Cos
sip from the Washington correspon-
dence of the Cincinnati gazette:
"Some of the most thoughtful men
in Congress believe that one of the
chief aims of the Presidents last mes
sage was to administer rebuke tc
Mr.. Seward. Ii is known, although
it was charged publicly by some O
MIR. Johnson's friends, that Mr.. Sew
ard had refused to transmit the consti
tutonal amendment to the States UNI
less it was first submitted to the Pres
ldent, that he really showed unusua
promptness III dispatching it, sending
certified copies off Immediately upor
reaching his office, and as is supposed
without consulting the President.
There is the very best authority fol
saying that, at meeting Of the John
son Club, in Springfield, Illinois,
short time since, an autograph lette
was read from President Johnson
telling them to persevere in their ef
forts, and promising that as soon Al
Congress adjourned the Offices should
be placed in the hands of men wh'
supported him. That just for tn
present he was keeping quiet, so a
not to excite the suspicious of Con
gress. All indications now point t,
the formation of an Office holders
party. With this it is supposed tina
the North can be partly corrupted anc
partly held in check, while the Soutl
is to be encouraged to take no step to
ward the Congressional plan of res
tGration."

Hon. Justin s. Morrill,.

The following note announces the
retirement, at the close of the present
Congress, of one of the most industri-
Gus, unassuming members of the House
lone who has served for eleven years
with the hearty apr oval of his con.
stituents and steady growth in pub
lie confidence and appreciation.
It is understood that Mr.. Morrill,
retiring from service in the House. will
not decline to permit himself to be
pressed by his friends as a candidate
for the Senatorship, to be made vacant
by the expiration of the term for which
Judge Poland was appointed. If a
candidate, we cannot doubt that the
people of his State, through their Leg
islature elected next fall, will confer
the Senatorial Office upon him, in pref
erence, upon the score of tried useful
ness and experience, to any other man
of public distinction in Vermont.
Could it depend upon the general suf-
frage of the Union party of the coun-
try, no result would be more certain.
Mr., Morrill, has a reputation for Leg
islative efficiency, practical knowledge
and high talent, hardly equalled by
any of the men with whom he has
served during the recent trying years
of the nation. Politically, he is sound
to the hearts core, and no better rep
resentative of the uncompromising
J Republicanism of the sturdy Green
Mountain State" can by possibility be
| found.
The Burlington Free Press instances
l3 Union newspapers of Vermont
which favor the election of Mr.. Morrill,
and six which advocate the claims OF
Judge Poland, and says this is fan
representation of the feeling of the
people of the State.
