REooNsTRUoTIoN.-W oppose Andrew john
sons plan OF reconstruction because we do not
believe the people of the Southern States can
be safely trusted with the management of the
civil power. The prese nee of the military is
necessary TO the protection OF Union men, 10th
white aud black, in many districts. Restora-
ton implies the withdrawal of this force. In
that event there would be perfect reign of
terror. Bad men would wreak their vengeance
upon every one who opposed secession, and the
officers OF the law would sustain them in doing
SO, as was the case in Memphis and New Or
leans. Politicians and others who do not re-
gard the lives of ono portion of the citizens as
worth preserving, may favor reconstruction on
the Presidents plan, but ,eo cannot, until there
is manifest change in the disposition OF the
ex-rebels and conspirators We are for putting
another class in power, and compelling them to
observe the law and comport themselves with
order and propriety.

Died, on the I'd inst, 10 Baltimore ut the resi
dence Of DR.. ]. r. Anderson, No. l2l East Balti
more Street aARY r. CRozIRR, OF this city, aged
29y ears. The death of this eslimahle young
lady brings sorrow to many hearts, for hpc neal
relatives were deeply and tenderly attached
to her; and her many vlrtHes, her mental
gifts, her excellent social qualities, her active
usefulness, her moral sens utility, and her good
influences, made her attractive and enaearile
to her extensive circle of acquaintances Her
mind was above the common order, and her
heart, naturally good, was made more tender
by the light ard graees OF true piety. She
had sensitive conscience, aud whatever her
duties required, she promptly, assiduously and
cheerfully performed AS II daughter she was
loving and faithful. As II school teacher she
wGs deeply interested performing her duties
ofteutimes under treat teebeness and bodily
suffering. As a member of the Church she
fulfilled her obligations, being pnnctual in her
attendance on public SERVICE and never fail
Ing in private devotion. AS a teacher In the
Sabbath School, she was earnest and atten-
tive, and deeply concerned 10 the mental and
spiritual advancement of her scholars. Ia the
exaltat0u aud exte nsiou of her Church she
was energetic and perseveriDg. To all Chris
tian duties she was tenderly alive-steadfast
In the faith, active in charity, loving her
neighbor, worshiping God. Living such a
life, guided by such principles, stimulated by
such piety, she could not Tail to be prepared
for departure from this world and in her
last hours she was sustained by heavenly hope
and joy, and passed to realms of eternal bliss
10 dwell forever with her Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ. NJ.

SINGULAR DooTRINB.-Charlss b. Lore, Esq,
in addressing IL me citing OF his party last Sat
urday evening said " The South yielded she
acknowledged her defeat ; and the moment
those men laid down their arms, they were re-
stored to all the rights and privileges of Amer
lean citizens" According to this treason is
not crime. A man may rebel against the
Government, cause the loss of thousands oil
lives, and not forfeit his rights as citizenl
Instead OF punishment being inflicted upon him
for his misdeeds, he must be rewarded With
office, as Mayor Monroe and others have been.
We can never assent to a policy that liberates
pirates like Semmcs, mak,s good losses sus-
tanned by blusterers like Wise, and rewards red
handed rebels. II those men are entitled to
any protection it is that Of the hangmau.-
They forfeited every right by their crimes, and
the idea OF allowing them to exercise the cleo
tive franchise and ill stations of honor and
profit, is utterly repugnaAt to every lover Of
law and order. If they had eyirced any feel
ings of repenta nee, or des ire to make amends
for their heinous acts, there might be some
grounds for leuiency aud restoration to for
feited rights and privileges. bad DISPOSE
ton, however, has been shown on all occa-
eions; there is the old spirit of bitterness, and
such disregard OF law, that men who sus-
ever, in many districts, for life and property.

an election for municipal officers. At the gen-
eral election there will be over 5000 votes
polled, and as the LocotocoS had out their en-
tire strength on Tuesday, it will be seen that
the Union party will have a very large ma
jority, enough to carry not only the county,
but the State also, if our friends do their duty
in other sections.

0urRAeEs Upon UsIosisTs In ALBANIA
letter received in Washington from a we'll
known citizen Of Alabama, dated Aug. 8, 1866
by Captain Bingham, secretary of the Loyalst
Conventioners, states:
al have seen DR.. Stewart, of Herd county,
who was assistant surgeon in the 1st Ala
bama Union cavalry. he tells me that about
three weeks ago he was notified that the pre-
sence of man who had deserted his coua try
and gone to the Yankees was not agreeable to
the patriotic Union-loving citizens of Herd
county, Ca, and that he would not be allowed
to live there; whereupon the Doctor then stat
ed to them that he bought he should stay
Last Saturday an attack was made on him and
three shots was fred at him bya part of the
same parties that notified him to leave. These
same men who thus assaulted United States
officer profess to belong to the Johnson Union
parry, and say they are more loyal than the
Doctor, because he is not for the President:
policy. In fact, this is the reason of the as
sault. Unless things change, the name of An
drew Johnson will soon become as great terro
to Union men South as that ofJeti Davis eve
was. During the war it was treason against tn,
Oontederacy to oppose JEFF Davis-now it il
treason to oppose Andy.
This letter may cost me my life, but will
AXE the risk. "-TNew York Tribune.
