THIS country has passed through its
day Of war, turmoil, and confusion. The
people desire to rest in the peace, and en-
Joy the prosperity, they have fought for
and won. A few pestilent demagogues
seem determined to keep up the war, long
after every enemy is disarmed, and every
opposition gun silenced. Riding into
power on the whirlwind Of the revolu-
ton, and knowing no. other mode Of OBJ
tanning place, they seek to keep the social
and political sea dashed into q fury, that
its topmost wave may nee more heave
them into positions they cannot attain BY
virtue Of merit. This attempt must fail.
As surely as the sun shines, after the
threatening cloud has passed, 90 surely is
this republic about to enter upon an en-
tirely different career from that which it
is emerging from. Fanatics cannot rule
except during q revolution. The radicals
who persist in ignoring the, great truth
that the Union Is preserved, in all It's pris-
tine vigor. must sink beneath the wave Of
popular opinion which is already coming.
The wal for the Union was nota failure.
Secession was never accomplished. The
rebellious States no more swung from
their m%oorings, than does q county be-
come separated from the State because
some OF its citizens have trangressed its
laws. Its inhabitants may be criminals,
but they are citizens, liable to be punished
by its laws, and protected by them in all
their rights.-St. Joseph Herald.

RECOVERY OF HIDDEN TREASURE BY In
DIANs.-The Carrollton (Ill.) Democrat Of
May 22d, says:
For some time past q party Of Indians,
numbering fifteen, belonging to the Chero-
kee tribe, have been encamped on the
banks Of the Illinois river, ten miles from
this place. The ostensible object wat fish,
ing, hunting, etc., but it appears from re.
cent Developments that their chief aim was
to secure a hidden treasure Of seven urns
of Spanish coin which had been imbedded
in the bluffs at that point in years agone,
by their forefathers. They seemed to be
extremely cautious in their manners, lest
the pale face should discover the cause Of
their presence in that particular locality
and wrest the coveted prize, for which
they had travelled many weary miles.
After diligent search, which occupied
some ten or twelve days, they succeeded
In finding the spot where lay concealed
the secret Of their researches. Little re-
mains to be told. Suffice it to say that,
after due exploration, their brightest anti
cipations were by far more than realized.
The urns of gold and other sacred relics
spoken Of by their chiefs, long since gone
to the "happy hunting grounds" were
secured, and on yesterday morning these
untutored children Of the forest took their
departure for the Far West with many
thousand Spanish dollars to cheer them
on their long and tedious march.

RIcHEs.-The man who holds the envi-
able position Of being the yichest indivl.
dual in the world is the Viceroy ofEsypt.
He possesses immense estates in the most
fertile country Of the globe, the value OF
their annual product being reckoned at
tens Of millions Of dollars. He has palaces
stores, factories, and such facilities for the
management Of his property and his own
ACKNOWLEDGMENT as are only limited by the
extent of the country he governs. Yet,
with all his wealth, the Viceroy is always
short Of money, and at present is so needy
that he is trying to negotiate a loan in
London. He must be a poor Anancier If
he canuot live on the enormous annual
revenues Of his estates in Egypt.

of the leading New York Republican pa

states many things concerning the action

Federal capital. Sam. Bowles is entitled
to attention, when he says:

LOVELY AND LovrNo.-The two rampant
radical sheets Of Chicago do kiss each
other with the ardor Of the embrace Of
Mercy and Truth. Witness the Repubh-
can CDana) ON the Tribune (Gov. Bross),
Of May oath:
The Chicago Tribune is the meanest
pap now published in America. It uses
the Chicago Times as an organ to circu-
late lies about the Republican. The an
nual meeting Of the stockholders OF the
Republican was held on the 22d, for the
purpose Of electing officers for the year.
The Tribune, that dare not admit the name
even Of the Republican to its columns,
sent one of its editors, a well-known spa
vined religio-political hack, to the Chicago
Times, and procured the insertion in that
goddess sheet Of the story that the Repub-
lican had sold out to the johnson party.
The price paid is notetated. but, if it was
not greater than any sane nan would pay
for the poor old stealing concern on Clark
street, it would not be sufficient to buy
wicking to- keep a farthing candle burn
ing through one of Deacon Bross's short
est prayers.

The Adopted Policy.

When the rebellion was finally crushed,
and reconstruction Of the seeding States
became the prominent question in Con-
gress, there arose a difference in opinion
between u loyal President and a loyal
Congress. No one ever doubted the de-
votion Of Andy johnson to the Union.
His personal sacrifices in the first days Of
the rebellion, proved him a patriot. No
one doubted the desire Of Congress to re-
organize the Union upon a firm basis ;
there sat in both Houses patriots tried and
true, but a difference arose, and out Of
that difference, certain spotted dema-
gogues, whose devotion to the Union par
ty only existed in proportion to the loaves
and fishes which fell to their lot, prophe-
sled a division of the party, and like
young proselytes, these demagogues howl
ed loudest over the impending breach and
preached q sermon in the aus of the
Union. when they failed to appreciate the
subject themselves. They howled against
the division of the Union party, when
they knew there was an honest difference
Of opinion among truly loyal men, and
then e~ndeavored to split the party by
kicking overheard Andy Johnson, Grant,
Sherman, and almost all others who were
Union men par excellence. They endeav-
ored to read out of the party every man
who had agreed with the President, never
considering the past services Of any one,
and moi endeavoring to allow any one to
have an opinion opposite to the most rad
ical Of the Union men, and had they sue
ceeded in this, they would have split the
Union party, and in the division Of the
loyal masses between the policy Of Con-
gress and the policy of the President,
would have handed US over to the rule OF
the copperheads in Nevada. Thank God,
the hellish purposes of these men have
been defeated. They argued that the cop
perheads endorsed the President's policy.
Has moi the result been that Congress has
now receded from the rule at first estab-
lished, and have narrowed down on the
reconstruction plan to that advocated by
the President, and If the radicals in Con-
gress can now approve Of the Presidents
policy, should we not rejoice that the cop
Observation-Disclosures and demoralized as
they have been-also come to the rescue,
and give US thus a united nation upon this
question: The result of the moderation
Of Congress upon this question has nettled
the spirit Of some Of those who shrieked
in favor of the radicals, and who now see
their efforts to become Jacobin leaders
have failed. It is a sad lesson to them
that in the future an honest and conserva-
tive policy must always win, against radi-
Gals at either extreme, aud let US hope
they will profit by the lesson. The policy
of Andrew johnson is now the policy Of
the nation.-Reese r. RcpeiHe.

same journal also hints that editors are
still to ride free in New York, as the fact
Of the companies advertising in their
journals makes the editors "employes,"
which is a very comfortable theory. The
only effect the bill will have will be to cut

road companies wish an excuse for no,
