QUALIFICATIONS or CONGRESSIONAL
writer in the Cincinnati Gazette undertakes
to review Mr.. EwINa's letter, and argues
as follows:
"Congress is not discussing the credes.-
tials of Jones and Smith, but their qudf!h-
cations to be there and this is q right
which the Constitution has not only o n
ferred upon them, but required of them.
What can bar the doors Of Congress against
a majority Of rebels but its right to ex-
anime their qualifications To know inc
meaning of qualification, take the following
sentence of an old author"
"Take the following sentence OF on OLD
author! Not, Look to the Constitution,
which prescribes the qualifications. Ifthe
writer understood the subject which he
presumes to discuss with Mr.. EWING, he
would know that Congress has no right to
require any other qualifications than those
prescribed in the Constitution ; for, as
when the Constitution declares that a Sc
nator shall be thirty years of age, it in
effect declares that Congress shall not
require him to be thirty-fivc years of age
so when it prescribcs the oath which shall
be taken, it in effect prcscribes that no
other oath shall be required.

Donations to Presbyterian Institutions
of the South.


The Central Presbyterian announces that
Rev. S. d. stuart, who went to Europe
as an agent for the endowment of Wash
ington College, has, with the assistance OF
Rev. DR.. MOORE, of this city, and the CO.
operation of the Earl of SALISBURY, OBJ
tanned:
al. A donation Of about two hundred
dollars worth of specimen books for your
Presbyterian Publication Library.
"2. A muniticcnt donation of five large
boxes of books and tracts, the valu OF
which, l think, must be great.
IS. The privilege of purchasing BOOKS
for your Presbyterian repositories at an
advantageous discount, for cash.
"a. Books for Sunday school libraries,
white and colorcd schools, at a discount
still more favorable, at subscribers price"
Mr.. STUART intended to visit Paris in a
short time, and considered his prospect as
agent of Washington College more en-
couraging than could have been reasonably
expected.
The Central Presbyterian also announces
several additional small donations for the
benefit of Union Theological Seminary-of
course from persons in this country.

John R. Clymer, one of the Copper
Johnson delegates to the Grayback Con-
ycntion from the Fifth district, at the time
Of Lees invasion of Pennsylvania in 1868,
and just prior to the battle of Gettysburg,
made a speech, in which he said:
"Wherc now is yom shattered army ?
Scattered and domoralized, fleeing before
Lee and his victorious hosts TO the very
gates of the capital. will tell you, my
friends, the South cannot be conquered.
Eight millions of southern frccmen .tight-
ing for their liberties can never be subducd
by any force the tyrant Lincoln or his
minions can send against them"
The Boston transcript suggests that
Andrew Johnson, like Andrew Jackson,
had now better be styled the Hero OF
New Orleans"
The President is nervous about the
| Philadelphia Convention, and does not
hesitate to advise the ;nnconverted, yet
hardened, rebels who whit him on their
way to act as delegates to be sure and
take "back seats"
Mrs. Jacobs and her daughter, quad
rooms, and to all appearance white people,
were put off the New York steamer at Sa-
vannah last Thursday on account OF their
tinpe of African blood. Mrs. Jacobs is 4
very intelligent woman, well educated,
and has travelled in Europe. She is the
authorcss of a novel called "Linda," and
with her daughter was sent to Savannah
by the "FriendS" to establish schools
and asylums for the colorcd people.
THE CAMPAIGN OUR OF He ADMINISTRATIONS.
1t has already been given out that the
President, accompanied by his Cabinet,
will leave this city on the 2Sth instant for
Chicago, in order to participate in the
LAYING of the cornerstone Of the Douglas
monument. This visit to Chicago is really
intended to be a sort of triumphal march,
q presidential campaign tour, which is to
extend from the east to the west, during
which "My Policy" is to be pressed upon
the people by its distinguished author, as
sisted by his constitutional advisers.
1t is the intention of the c%ampaigners to
stop q day or two at each Of the principal
cities and towns on the ruotc, beginning
with Philadelphia. In going to Chicago it
is proposed 10 strike the principal cities
in the States OF New ORR, northern OhIO.
and northern Indiana, returning by way
of St. Louis, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, and
Pittsburg. Arrangements have already
been made with prominent Johnson Cop
perheads at the different places for scrc-
nades and other demonstrations, which will
allow the President and several members
Of the Cabinet an opportunity to make
snaochaS Several rcuOrtcrS. including Il
representative Of the Associated Press,
will accompany the party, and herald their
exploits to the country. The affair has
been engineered by Secretary Seward,
who is constantly boasting that he is the
original inventor Of my Policy.' The
object is, of course, to influence the fall
elections, and the whole matter may be re-
garded as an evidence of the utter dcspe-
ration to which the President and his
friends are reduced.

Politics Everywhere.

A
: Some of the national associations whose
objects are purely scientific and literary,
'or social and moral, are gladly restoring
The relations that existed before the war.
The meetings for the purpose of recon-
rstruction are usually held at the North,
where the habit of introducing politics
into all sorts Of assemblies yet prevails to
such a degree as necessarily proves to be
very amusing to the southern delegates.
Any man who goes from n of the
"rebel" States to take part in a national
convention of this kind must be prepared
to stand a good deal. 1t will take time
for Radicalism to blow off, and really, after
all, if the thing is looked at coolly, it will
appear much less harmless and provoking
than we had supposed it to be. One who
keeps cool will be amused more than an
noyed at some of its exhibitions, and will
find all the advantage on the side of the
South in every discussion-in consequence
Of this equanimity.
The United States Dental Association
lately met in Boston. AS politics are in
e~yerybody's mouth, we would naturally
expect an explosion here among these gen.
tlemcn ain spite of their teeth" yet it is
very hard to discover the connection be-
tween this science and the science of 60
vernment.
The Association was addressed by that
notorious individual Major-General But
LER, but upon what particular line of the
art of dentistry we are not informed-pos-
sibly upon the merits of the different
kinds of plate that arc now in use.
At the close of his remarks a resoln-
tion of thanks was offered, which closed
with the wish that he had been in New
Orleans one week before to subdue the
riots.
DR.. McKELLorPs, of st. Louis, objected
to this resolution, and a spirited debate
ensued, in which the southern delegates
took ground against it as foreign to the
purposes of the Association, the northern
men contending that it was a just and pro-
per way Of ventilating their appreciation
Of the worthy mans loyalty and ability.
DR.. FORBES, Of st. Louis, said no man but
a seccssionist would call the resolution a
political one, and some other southern
men were in favor Of it.
1t was finally passed and in the evening
the members were entertained by the
president Of the Massachusetts, Dental So.
ciety at his residence, where 1t is to be
hoped that, in the mastication of a variety
OF good things, they were restored to a
state in which they could pick their teeth
with comfort and good humor.

Radical Accounts from Philadelphia
Telesrams to FOrney's~ Chronicle.

PHILADELPHIA, August l3.-The utmost
confusion prevails in the ranks OF the Cop
periohnsons. What are called conserva
tive or Johnson delegates from Ohio, lndi-
ana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New
York, have resolved to exclude Vallandig-
ham at all hazards. lie refuses to 60 out.
The Kentucky delegation, struck with his
courage, stand by him..
Fernando Wood, Of New York, and Hen
ry Clay Dean, of Iowa, have Withdrawn.
Wood for the sake of harmony. Dean says
the Convention intends to adopt a retro
spectiye iron-clad oath as offensive as that
Of Congress.
The whole Convention is manipulated in
the interest of Seward and johnson, and
contemplates the formation of a party to
elect one of them President in 1868. This
purpose is already disclosed, amt has
greatly alarmed the Democratic leaders,
who begin to see that Vallandigham is the
best apostle after all.
F~orney's Press tomorrow will contain q
leader asserting and proving the following
propositions First, that not a single
southern State can be admitted to Con-
gress under Johnson's plan, but will rather
be delayed in consequence of the divl-
sions and t~reacheries already displayed in
the Convention. Second, that the latter
plan contemplates the destruction OF the
Democratic party as essential to the for
nation of a new Copperhead- Johnson
organization.
One of the Philadelphia Republican pa
pers foots up forty.one generals and fifty
seven jurists among the delegates.
-Four hundred applications for seats from
journalists have already been made.
Secretary Seward arrived at Auburn at
! o'clock Saturday afternoon, and will re-
main until Tuesday, when, it is under
stood, he will proceed to Philadelphia.
Every State il represented except Ore
gOn. Elk.
David D. Rose, United States Marshal Of
Indiana, and . delegate from his State, is
just 10 from Washington, where he saw the
President yesterday. He represents the
President as saying to him that an Ad-
ministration TO be successful must take

1t is probable that Bishop Odenheimer

not be astonishing if the Rev. Henry Ward
Bcecher should occupy that position. A
number of the New York and New Eng

that Mr.. Becchcr is heartily in favor of the
movement, and urge that he should be in
yitcd to act as chaplain.
FERNANDO WOODS LETTER.
PHILADELPHIA, August l3, 1866.
Hon. j. II. DooliMe:
Dear Sir,-I am earnestly DESTROYS for
the entire success of the movement pro-
posed to be initiated by the Convention of
tomorrow. If successful, the results to
the country will be Of the most salutary
character, but it cannot he successful II
its proceedings shall be disturbed by any
cause whatever.
] am informed that a serious disagree
mcnt is likely to arise in consequence Oh
an attempt to be made to exclude some
delegates, myself included, because our
political record is distasteful to the Radl-
Gals and their sympathlzers.
Now, although / feel confident that such
an outrage would not be perpetrated in my
case by the Convention, and though have
nothing to regret or take back as to my
course during the war-and ! do not adj
init the right of any one to raise that ques-
ton in the Convention under the call-yet
I am too much devoted to the accomplish
ment of the high and patriotic object in
view to permit my presence there to be
made a means of disturbing its delibera-
lions, or an excuse for assault by its enc
mics outside. Therefore ! shall not attend
the Convention as a delegate.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
