take down the bronze statues Of her Rev.

at Richmond and grind them all to powder.
Virginia led the way to Independence and
to the Union, and endowed the United
Stateswith its richest territorial domains. -
After all this the American people are not
going to make a Territory of her, and deny
to her share in those liberties which, but
for her, none would have possessed. Let
Virginia then celebrate the Fourth ol

Failure OF Another OF Gen. Butler
j,..1 schemes. u. ..

When General Butler got possession of
New Orleans, one of his first acts was to
demand from citizens who hod subscribed
to the Confederate loan, am equal centribu-
tion to the treasury of the United States
How much he actually collected he has
never made public; but as New Orleans
has contributed fifteen millions to the Con-
fedetate loan, the amount taEehiby Gene
raj Butler tihder this levy must have been
large. There Was no law and no rule Of
civilized warfare authorizing it; and. in
fact, nothing but Buffers sovereign will
and pleasure to back it up. ., .uI
The consequence is, that the citizens
who were thus robbed have petitioned the
War Department for the return of their
money, and Scretarey Stanton has Decided
that their demand isjiist. and that the
money must be repaid. lie has. promised
the elaihisiita that their claim shall be
audited and referfed to Congress for a
special appropriation, Perhaps Congress
may be slow to act in the csea, but it will,
no doubt, be eventually paid. The case
is instructive, as showing that bold acts
oflawlessness, though they mag be though
lessly applauded at the. time, are pretty
certain to return to plagde their inventors,
and to be correctly estimated 1T last

A Few plain Thoughts.

From the accession ofAIr. Jefferson TO power in
1901 until tile advent TT Mr. Lincoln in 1851, the
government was conducted on Democratic prin!
ciples. There were, ii is true, at long intervals
men belonging to other political organizations
chosen, after they were installed in Nohce they
found 1t inpracicable to carry on their ainiinis-
trltIcn upon the narrow and contracted Views Of
faction accidentally in power. This was the cse
with John Quincy Adams and John Tylel-Aso OF
Fillmore, and SO, also, of Andrew johnson, the
present incumbent of the Presidential chair. We
appeal to-every pnprejudiced mind if such is not
the fact.
This being the case, then, let us study the his
tory the Republic for the sixty long years a.

him, the official sentenced the culprit to fifty blows

executed, and the American charged fifty cents
costs. The judge, moi being able to change the
dollar given him by the American, the latterhu-

manner. Accordingly the tailor was again tied
down and received fifty more blows thus making
up in his own person the required change.

THE IMPENDING WAR.--Late advices from Eu-
rope state that the general opinion was that the
impending conflict would be ''severo, but short
in duration and decisive in its consequences" y
This reminds US of the ''short, sharp decisive
predictions of our own war. Perhaps the proph-
cts will prove as much at fault in Europe as
America. When such a struggle as that now
imminent begins, there is no telling when or how
il will end. '.
