STEVENS AND RETALIATION
SEWARD AND RECONCILIA-
ANDREW JOHNSON
BY the President
WILLIAM II. SEWARD.

Eighteen hundred years agothe Saviour
Of men, speaking as "never man spake,"
denounced the Jewish law, which demanded
san eye for an eye and tooth for tooth"
He substituted for the doctrine Of revenge
the teachings of forgiveness and forbear-
ance. And during the centuries which lie
between the planting Of the germs Of Chris
tian civilization on the shores Of Galilee to
the hour Of its present vast dominion the
world has been mighty theatre, in which
. Christian ideas have striven against the
heather and hierarchic spirit of retaliation.
History in all ages tells one unvarying
story Of honor for the ruler, and prosperity
for the empire or nation, that cultivated the
spirit Of peace at home and abroad, and
when war came upon them fought for pres
ervation rather than conquest, and treated
its captives with humanity. instead Of out
rage. Rulers have monuments Of glory or
shame, and nations have annals conspicuous
for grandeur and DURATION or remarkable for
internal dissention and external trouble, in
proportion to their sway being based on con-
cliation or retaliation. One or the other OF
these motives must lie at the root OF all gov
eminent.
That this is eminently so at the present
period Of our history is beyond dispute, and
does not require debate. 1t is o statement
that proves itself. Issuing from war con-
tinental in its extent, involving the fate Of
thirty millions of people, marshaling on it's
bloody scenes the grandest armies of modern
times, fearful in its cost Of life and treasure
unparalleled in the completeness Of its vic
tory, we are forced to deal with the events in
which we find ourselves either as merciless
or as humane conquerors. Our acts, our le-
gislation, our public and private dealings,
must partake Of the spirit Of reconciliation
or revenge. We cannot avoid this fate it
is imposed upon us by that almighty dispen-
sation which compels epochs and peoples to
" choose this day whom ye will serve" No
man In America can escape the decision for
himself; and no party can elude the issue in
its councils or its creed. The one immediate
question now before this country is that Of
restoration. THE PRESIDENT, imbued with
the lofty precepts Of Christian teachings, and
influenced by the principles of statesman
ship, has declared for q reconciled Union anC
n conciliated people. The great Politica
party which administered the Government
during the war, and which elected the presen
incumbents of the national Offices, both e1
ecutiye and legislative, and who hold politi
cal power in twenty-three States, is agitatet
upon this imposing problem, and its future
depends upon its position with reference to
a That the administrative branch has taken
.tand with Tue PaEsIDEsT for forbearine
and confederate policy is faHAliar TO all

TAG heavy rains of the past few days
caused an extraordinary rise in the waters Of the
Gunpowdsr river, in Baltimore county, Md, by
which considerable damage to property, crops, &c,
was sustained-in some instances the corn along
the banks of the river being almost entirely washed
away. The new iron bridge, erected at cost Of
s., 900, across the river, near Phoenix Factory,
was entirely washed away on Monday morning,
about o'clock The saddest event Of the freshet
was the drowning Of a Mr.. Gwnn, residing in the
nsighborhood of the bridge. There has not been
such food in that section of the country for a
number Of years. the bank along the river for miles
being overlooked, causing a great destruction Of
property by the washing away Of fences, lumber,
and other movable property, besides so materially
damaging the growing CROPS.
