FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, May 6.
THANKS TO THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS.
The President yesterday signed the
following:
"ReSoIued, By the Senate and House
of Representatives. Of the United States
of america, in Congress Assembled,
That it is the duty and privilege of
Congress to express the gratitude of
the nation to the officers, soldiers and
seamen of the United States, by whose
valor and endurance on the land and
on the sea, the rebellion has been
crushed, and its pride and its power
have been humbled; by whose fidelity
to the cause of freedom the government
of the people has been preserved and
maintained; and by whose orderly re-
turn from the fire and blood of civil
war to the peaceful pursuits of private
life, the exalting and ennobling infu-
ence Of free institutions upon a nation
has been signaIly manifested to the
world"
THE PROPOSED NATIONAL CONVENTION.
The proposition for National Con
vention for permanent settlement OF
the many difficult issues arising out of
the late war, has been carefully con-
sdered by many of the leading men
of the nation, who have received 1t
with respect, some of them entertain
ing for it hearty approval.
THE NEW INTERNAL REVENUE BILL.
1t turns out that the new modifica-
tions of the Internal Revenue Tax Bill
are unimportant. Tho rates of taxa
tion are not changed except in the case
Of express and telegraph companies.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE c COLORADO BILL.
There is as YET no indication of the
Presidents disposition of the bill ad
mitting Colorado into the Union. Not
a few of the opponents OF tho meas
ure are firm in the belief that it will
be returned to Congress at the end of
the present week, with the President s
objections to the same.-C Commercial.

For the Lnncnster Gnrntto.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I see in the report of
the horticultural Society, published in
your last weeks issue, that Mr.. John
A. Fetters called the attention Of the
Society to "Best's FruitTree Invigora-
tor" stating at the same time, that he
thought it looked very much like an
attempt to humbug and defrdud the
public because Mr.. Best agrees to pay
S5 for the loss Of the fruit of each plum
tree stung by curculio, 1 have writ
ten Mr. B. on the subject, and he says
in reply, that be will pay the S. if ei-
ther the tree or fruit is stung And, if
the decision of many eminent fruit
growers can be relied upon, l am pre-
pared to prove, il Mr.. Fetters desires
it, that curculio does sting the tree as
well as the fruit.
With regard to the merits of the
"Invigorator," it is but justice to state,
that if it is humbug, then l lam hum
bugged and not the public, as Mr..
f. would have them believe. lin
sure every Receipt l SELL and zoe wilLre-
fund the money Tit does not do ,chat ue
claim for it in the circular. Surely this
does not look very much like an at
tempt to detraud the public, the ex.
pressed opinion Of Mr.. Fetters to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
And, as we have personally seen the
effects Of it on our peach trees, it may
not be amiss to state, that since its ap-
plcation we have been unable to find
living peach borcrs in any considera-
BILE number-two, in fact, are all, and
they were protected from its effects by
Unusual circumstances-whlle there
were plenty of dead ones.
The eminent position occupied by
the Horticultural Society, would seem
to shut ont the idea that personal en-
nifty could enter into its proceedings
yet the denunciation of the "Invjgora-
tor" as a humbug, is a personal injury to
me- Protesting, as do, to deal hon
orably with all men, and in view of
the foregoing facts, and the certificates
Of such men as Judge Haynes and 9th
ers, 1 would suggest, that the Society
cannot afford to denounce the Fruit
Tree Invigorator," without, at least
giving it a fair trial. Very Respectful
lly, GEO. l.. SITES.

Follow THE ARGUMENT TO ITS Con-
cLUsIoN.-The Evening Post closes an
article on the English Liberal coward
icc in not giving universal application
to their principles, and the following
suggestive comments on questions now
agitating the country hore; ..r
When the Daily News and World
cry out mo taxation without repre-.
sentation;" that means universal sutf,
rage, though the News and World do
not mean it, But if they should go
before the country with that watch
word, aid succeed? So we notice that
n party in Tennessee, composed OF per.
sons who served The rebel cause, plead
tor suffrage there denied them through
the instrumentality Of Mr. johnson,
when he was Military Governor; and
their chief argument is, that n class OF
men is not safe in a community, either
in lite, or liberty, or properly, it it is
denied the right to vote. But suppose
this appeal should succecd-do they
not see that it must give tho suffrage
to tho blacks rs well rs cX.rebels? In
former days tho Southern politicians
ruled us by the cry, Save the Union"
They did not care for the Union, but
it was good party cry; so good, in
deed, that when they determined to
destroy the Union, their old cry was
turned against them and they were
beaten on their own platform.

UNION CONVENTIONS.

We publish this week, the call OF
the Union State Committee for State
Union Convention on June GOTH
1t speaks for itself, and the readers
attention is earnestly directed to it,
The recurrence of Congressional elcc
tions next fall will make the coming
campaign one Of unusual Importance
The call for Union county Convcn-
ton, for the election of delegates to
the State G Convention, and for the trans.
action of other busincs s, is also pub
lished to-day. We hope the Union
men of tho county will como up, on
the day appointed, in force that will
show due appreciation of the impor-
tance of the issues to be settled by the
ballot. The Importance of retaining
political power in the hands of the Un-
ion organization is no less now than
it has been for five years past-and
Union men must realize that there is
no light task before them to keep the
reins from be ing seized by hands that
would drive tho car of government to
hopeless destruction. Will the Union
men address themselves to the work
with zeal and vigor commensurate
with its magnitude We hope to see
a gratifying response in the turn on,
at the County Convention Of the 9th
n June.

A LAMB CARRIED OFF The Wash.
ington Pa, Reporter says that few
days since, while some farmers were
engaged in plowing on the farm OF Mr..
Shannon, in Fallowfeld township, they
observed large eagle swoop down up.
on flock of sheep grazing in an ad-
joining field, and seizing lamb in its
talons, with loud scream bore off its
bIcating prizo lar above the tree tops,
Its sudden descent somewhat startled
the men at first, but recovering them
selves they let out fierce yell or two,
which seemingly frightened the proud
bird to such an extent that it lot go It's
hold, and the lamb fell to the ground,
but was OF course killed by tho tall.

Wheat,

The Ohio Farmer says the wheat
crop in Ohio will fall below half an
average one. In Illinois, about half
the winter wheat is killed. In Mis-
souri, the prospect is fair for good
crop Reports from Pa, are not en-
couraging. In Virginia the prospect
is fair The Farmer concludes that
Putting all reports together, and
making due allowance for the annual
season Of crop, ,croakIng, we are led TO
believe that the yield per acre, through
out the whole wheat region of the
country, will fall below an average,
and that a short crop of fall wheat
must be set down as fact to be faced
this year"

Mr.. ROGERS supported the bill, but
reminded the House that there were
other able and illustrious Generals
who were entitled to the gratitude of
the American people, and that the men
who had fought in the ranks and gain
ed the victory were not TO be forgot
ten.
Mr.. SHELLABARGER claimed as
an additional merit ofGeneral Grants,
that he had proposed the destruction Of
slavery nearly month before the
proclamation of emancipation. and he
sent up.and had read letter from
General Grant to Mr.. Washburne, of
Illinois, dated Vicksburg, August 80,
1862, in which that view is expressed.
Mr.. DELANO hoped the House
would not adopt the amendment offer.
ed by Mr.. Stevens, for there was an,
other man in America beside General
Grant. There was another who would
be placed not far below him. That
name belonged to the State of Ohio
1t was that of the man who marched
his army from Atlanta to the sea cost,
and he believed that while the name
OF Gran, lived, that of Sherman would
not be forgotten. He wanted the
American people to be permitted to
cox, ,bot Chnrroon cboulb toka tho
place at present occupied by Grant.
The previous question having been
moved and seconded, the House came
70 vote. which was, first, on the
amendment of Mr.. Stevens. The
amendment was rejected by a vote Of
so yeas against rs nays. The follow.
ing voted nays on the passage OF the
bill: Messrs. Baker, Coffroth, Dennison
