A TRIMMER DEAD.

Mr.. Henry J. Raymond, the repub-
lican representative of democratic dis
trict, who undertook to lead the Con
servatives" in the United States House
of Representatives, is dead. He was an
ambitious little man, and had filled
many offices of honor in New York /;
but was never the choice of the party of
which he protested to be a'member, He
denounced Mr.. Lincoln in 1861, and
some saw. he went so far as to advocate
the removal of the Illinois statesman
from the White House. Nothing Of
this, however, is mentioned in Ray
mond's life of Lincoln. Mr.. Raymond

whoever may, they wish it distinctly to
be understood, that no loyal Yankees
need apply. The people of the north,
therefore must continue their march
towards the setting sun, they must go
on building up the mighty empire of
the great west, for Virginia is Joined
to her idols. She is determined to plod
on in the old way-living upon the
glorious sunshine of mutual admira-
tion," and rehabilitation. Her Saxon
blood must not be polluted by an adj
mixture with that of the naughty Nor
mon conqueror. Let the Yankees GO
where else they may choose, Virginia
at least will not take them to her bosom.
She wants neither their capital, their
enterprise, nor their industry. All she
desires is to be permitted to die in peace
with no northern vandals to witness her
sad and solemn departure from the
world.

Mr.. Sumner closed, on Tuesday, the
argument which he began on Monday,
in the Senate, against the House resolu-

moved asa substitute, a proposition shat
in all the states lately declared to be in

there shall be no denial of rights, civil
or political, on account of color or race

cere friend. He betrayed Mr.. Webb's
secrets, aud, in most shameless way
abused Lord Clarendon's friend. He
used to abuse Mr.. Bennett of the Her
aid; but he won't do so any more. He
used to abuse the South, and visited
shouts of "copperhead" upon all who
put in word in moderation in behalf
of the "wayward sisters" He has served
the Temperance party, the Know No
thing party, and the Republican party,
and betrayed each in turn. He tried to
get the control of the Conservatives in
Congress but Mr.. Stevens stumbled
upon the little trimmer, and both fall
ing, the New York light weight being
under, was crushed. He fingered for
several days and died. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. Raymond was a
friend of the South. He voted for negro
suffrage in Washington, although he
had made speech against the mea7
sure. Mr. J.. d. Baldwin, men,
her of Congress from Massachusetts,
writes to his paper, the Worcester Spy,
that-"Raymond is dead, so far as any
recognition hereafter is concerned. His
thin veneering of intellect and learning
is stripped clear, and we have him now
visible as potentious, insincere trim
mer, who fawns upon power, and is
wholly regardless of the eople." This
is very liberal view of the mind and
character of the late lamented, and
should be embodied in resolution, and
entered upon the journals of Congress.

The voice of Major General Dix is still
for war. In recent speech, referring
to the action of Great Britain, he said
"Her cruisers, sailing under the rebel
flag, have literally swept our commerce
from the ocean. Nay, more. For two
years the armies of the insurgents were

RETURN OF COLONEL WOOD.

I'll, 10 negotiate with the Emperor for a
tract of land OH the AMAZON for a south
crn settlement, came passenger on the
steamer South America, which arrived
at Philadelphia from Rio, a few after
Moons since. The Ledger says Colonel
w. is quite enthusiastic over the success
of his scheme thus far, and goes to New
Orleans on Wednesday to make ar
rangements there for following it up
Exchange.
Is this Col. w. w. w. Wood, formerly
of New Orleans, but later of the Natchez
Free Trader, whom Beauregard dis
missed from his army by General Order,
at Corinth, for cowardice? He was
captain of company from Natchez, and
q terrible fire-eater. AT Shiloh, during
the fiercest rage of battle, Beauregard
met him going to the rear. The result
was his dismissal from the army, and
the order was read ON parade. We con-
graduate Brazil upon the acquaintance
of the colonel. He was very fussy
little man at home, and has all the
qualities of the soldier but one.

General George H. Thomas, the hero
who defeated Hood so terribly in Ten
nessee, and has received the thanks of
Congress, is native of Virginia. 1t is
somewhat singular that we never hear
Virginians allude to this great and glo-
rious patriot. Had he done as much
against the Union as he has accom-
plished for it, he would be held in higher
esteem than either Lee or Stonewall
Jackson, for he certainly has proved
himself to be not only a better, but q
more successful soldier than either OF
them. General Jesse Reno, another
native of Virginia, fell at South Noun
tain, fighting for his country. Why
cannot we raise monument in his
native State to his memory?

CATTLE PLAGUE From the des-
patches of our Consul at Liverpool,
England, dated January, goth, 1866, we
learn that the cattle scourge Is rather on
the increase than otherwise. He says
that during the week previous to date,
9. 243 eases were reported to the authori-
lies. Thus far upwards of 10000 cattle
have either died with the plague or Seen
killed after taking it. The Consul says
this, in reality, forms but small pro-
portion of the actual loss, for hundreds
of cases are never reported, and thou
sands are slaughtered prematurely,
and hurried to market before the plague
attacks them, Vaccination is being
tried as preventive. 1t is probably too
soon, however, to report definitely. upon
its success, but there seems to be no
doubt that the experiment as far as they
have gone have been favorable. The
High Sheriff of Cheshire vaccinated ten
cattle and exposed them to the plague,
thus far they have not taken 1T.

A CLUE TO THE MYsTERY-A south
ern newspaper of Union proclivities
shrewdly suggests that the northern
copperheads and the southern rebels
do not wish the great problem of re-
construction settled any further than
by the admission of the southern
members of Congress, their purpose
then being 10 fight off any action,
with view to throwing the whole
question into the next Presidential
election, on an issue in favor of
Estate Rights" BY the light Of
this explanation it is easy to under
stand many things which otherwise
appear unaccountable. The hope Of
carrying a Presidential election, and
thus recovering possession of ma
tional power, is the thing which spurs
on the southern oligarchy to its mad
course of obstruction to all the Ad-
ministratiOn measures OF permanent
peace. Were it not for that perni-
cious hope, these conquered rebels
would act in a far different spirit,
and we should see general recon-
ciliation. 1t is essential, then, that
the measures of the existing Con-
gress should be so shaped as to put
an extinguisher upon these calcula-
tons of mischief and restoration Of
old abuses. We have the right and
the power both to legislate for 8
thorough and wholesome reform Of
the condition of the south, and il we
do not avail ourselves Of them, our
whole country will be the sufferer for
years to come. In this belief, we
earnestly hope that Congress will
perfect its measures as speedily ss
possible, and in shape to meet with
the approval of the President, who,
with the power lodged in his hands
and they way open for him, will not
hesitate to act with vigor for the
rlght.-Philadelphia North american.
