safe, speedy and happy termination of the
difficulties that for over four years
cursed our fair land with the most terrible
OF civil wars, and for having done so, the
country is largely debtor to Mr.. ALLEN.
His words were well chosen, and spoken at
atime when they should engage the atten-
ti0n Of the whole country, approximately
worthy of general acceptance, by reason of
their special applicability to the state of
the country at this time- II the other great
men Of the country were to speak out from
their retirement In this strain, there would
be created such sound and healthy public
sentiment as would be most salutary. iaal

widespread publicity on accountot its rare
merit asa statesmaD-like view Of our pres

The President and the Democrats.
On the eve Of the assembling of Congress,
correspondent was particular to say, that
the President, in referring to the DISPOSE
tlou manifested by the Democrats to sup
port his Reorganization policy, had express
ed the wonder whether they would sup
p5rt him after his Message should have
gone out to the public. There was then 30
intlmation thrown out that the President
did not desire their support; but, on the
cDntrary, the idea was advanced that such
support would be very acceptable. The
correspondent we now refer to puts him
self into an uncomfortable state because the |
Democrats show a disposition to stand by
the President In his work Of Reorganiza-
dion and pacifcation. He represents such
support as highly repulsiVe to the Presi-
dent, and stoutIy declares thatthe President
don't want il. The public is at liberty to
believe Just as much of such stuff as they
pIease.d sIflthere is no disagreement be-
tween the President and the Republican
members In Congress, what objection can
the President have to receiving the addi- |
tional support OF che Democratic members?
Would It not be a most grand spectacle to
look upon, the Presidents Reorganization
policy receiving the supports Of all parties?
