of the line she repudiates it. She has CON-

rights; the North-has acquired nothing by
her old constitutional compromises. said
a year ago upon this platform that Jeffer-
son Davis never intended to leave Washing

never intended to rebel. He was too wise
a man for that. He intended to remain in
Washington to be the government, to hold
in his hand the army and navy, and
to receive the diplomacy of the
sisterhoOd of nations. He and the
South were to be the government, and We,
if we chose, were to be the governed. Then
the South took that fatal step when he
quilted Washington. Urged by the haste
Of his own masses, by the unreasonable en-
thusiasm Of his own people, he was pre-
cipitated into the rebellion. But he never
meant to be rebel. In ninety or hun
dred days every leading man of the South
saw the mistake, and every effort in arms
was distinct, specific effort to redeem that
step. It failed. When, after the death Of
Lincoln, new chamber opened In the

him. He (Mr. Phillips) did not desire to
wait until the rebel ut the White House
built up the rebel aristocracy and made
them the Government. There was but one
problem before the American people for
solution to-day, and that was, how to make
the idea that conquered in the war domi-
nant down to the Gulf. Then, and not till
then, true reconstruction would commence.
The removal Of Johnson would begin our
great national duty. But the President
was not the only one to be blamed. Gene

for the massacre at New Orleans. Misses

this continent Is that occupied to-day by
Ulysses S. Grant, general-in- chief Of the

their disapproval. A very few applauded.

beef tea and arrow root -Four Of the
cases in my hospital have been severe
continent cases continent means
where the head, face and neck are swol-
len into misshapen mass, and the pus-
tules thickly running into each other +"
They have, throughout the disease, all
been perfectly sensible, have been free
from pain, and have never felt weak.
The effect of this medicine, which have
carefully watched, seemed TO arrest the
development Of the pustules, killing, as
it were, the virus from within, thereby
changing the character of the disease,
and doing away with the cause of pitting,
(if may so express myselfto the uninitia-
ted, } and thus avoiding the necessity of
India rubber and gntta percha APP
plications or of opening the pustules
In my opinion, all anticipations of dis
fgurement from pitting may now be
calmed, if this medicine is given from
the commencement Of the disease.
Before leaving this subject, may here
caution the public that the useful part of
the plant is in its root, as recommended
by DIR. Miles. With the usual kindness
of Dr. Gibson, the Director General,
have been amply supplied with it for the
use of my regiment. So much am i'm
pressed with the efficiency of it in small
pox over the old mode of treatment, that
/ hope to hear of it in every country
gentleman's medicine chest, and before
long, that we shall see no more faces as
described by Dickens, like the interior
surface of sliced mullins.
This plant" ay-trap" or pitcher
plant grows abundantly in the South.
1t is found extensively in South Caro-
lima. 1t can be obtained at the drug
stores, and can be used as tincture, or
as decoction as above suggested. We
would venture to suggest that if this in
nocent plant is possessed of the advan-
tages claimed for it, there will seldom be
better opportunity to establish its eff
cheney and extend its usefulness.

The small-pOx-An AntidOte and Cure.

DR. Cosmo G. Logic, Surgeon Major
of Royal Horse Guards, in letter to the
London Erening Nail, dated May 25th,
1863, furnishes the following antidote
and cure for smallpox disease which
prevails to n greater o. less extent
throughout the South as an epidemic.
BE says;
Some time ago, seeing paper written
BY Assistant Surgeon Miles, Of the Royal
Artillery, on the efficiency Of the North
American plant called the sdrscenid
purpurea, or pitcher plant, in the treat
ment Of smallpox among the Indians,
my colleague Mr. Agnis) and myself
have given this remedy, which has been
imported into this country by Dr. Miles,
a fair trial. and am happy to say the
eleven cases in our hands have recovered
under its peculiar influence
This remedy / consider a boon TO the
public, for this reason: IL is so easily
managed-any person can make a de
coction or infusion Of this root like tea.
An ounce Of the root is sliced. and in
fused in a quart Of water, and allowed 10
simmer down TO a pint, and given in two
tablespoonful doses every four hours,
while the patient Is well nourished with

ProsparitY Of New Orleans

1t is a very gratifying fact that little or
no falling off in the foreign trade of this
port is noticeable so far, notwithstanding
It is so late in the season. The Custom
house records show that the arrival of
seven foreign vessels we're reported on
Saturday last, and the gold receipts Of
the day for custom dues amounted to
$4,000 dollars This is proof that a
large business is doing; and that our
merchants expect II TO continue IS also
proven by the fact that a very large num-
Der Of invoices have been quite recently
received from the United States Consuls
in Liverpool, Hayre, Bordeaux, and other
foreign ports. These invoices are usually
in the possession of the Collector in New
Orleans several days prior to the arrival
of the goods, and the ones now in hand
show that large amount of miscellane-
Gus merchandise is on the way to this
port
Another evidence Of the flourishing
condition Of business is the amount Of
shipping which finds employment in the
Crescent City trade On Saturday alone
there were forty-seven entries, making a
total of vessels arrived since the first of
January Of 202S, with enough in port,
whose papers have not been registered,
to make up the full 2l00 This number
does not include the small craft and 9th
ers which sail under permits. Up TO the
same date last year, only 272 vessels had
arrived, showing a gain for 1866 Of 1928
arrivals. In 1864, up to April IL, 1928
vessels arrived We think this is is a
very fair showing, aud speaks well for
the business energy and enterprise Of our
merchants -Tmes

THE FENIAN EXCITEMENT.
The Escape of stephens faint of Fenian-
ism in the British Army.

From the London Herald, March ~
1t was generally and naturally imag-
ined that before leaving the prison in
which he was confined so able plotter
as Stephens would have previously pro
vided some means of conveyance to
America or France; but if we are to
credit his own assertions, he entertained
no intention whatever of abandoning his
projects and il would not appear that he
took the slightest precautions to conceal
his identity-not even so much as the
ordinary one of cutting off his beard, as
he still sports the same one in Paris
which he paraded before the magistrate
on his committal. Having no wild coun-
try or powerful friends to shelter him, it
is evident that his only chance of safety
lay in his remaining in Dublin; but be-
ing personally so well known, we cannot
conceive how he could have managed to
conceal himself there without taking the
most ordinary steps for his own preser-
vation. The city is comparatively small;
very great proportion, If not an abso-
lutte majority, of its inhabitants are
strongly opposed to his views; the f2, 900
offered for his apprehension was enough
to shake the fidelity of many who must
have been cognizant of his whereabouts;
and with such circumstances 10 aid their
efforts, we are AZ loss 10 conjecture
how numerous and intelligent police
could have failed To track him to his
place of concealment. IL it be true, as
asserted, that he came to Holyhead in the
mail packet, the very daring of such a
step NAV have facilitated its success, for
the quay at Kingstown- n--crowded as it al
ways is on the arrival or departure of a
steamer-would be the last place in
which those seeking him would deem il
likely TO meet him, and a Government
boat offered the least probable means OF
conveyance he could have chosen for his
flight.
Although we should be sorry to impute
disloyalty TO a body of men so highly
spoken of in Parliament by those who
ought to be best qualified 10 form a
correct opinion Of tkeir feelings and con-
duct, still it is impossible to shut our
eyes to the fact that either they must be
stupid TO a degree, or corrupted, for
otherwise Stephens would never have
ventured TO expose himself, as he must
necessarily have done, to the observation
of many Of their number when passing to
the packet; nor could he have evaded
their pursuit if conducted with yigor and
good faith during the months that have
elapsed since his first escape, even though
the whole population of Dublin were in
league to protect him And who, we
ask, may be blamed if disloyalty is uni
versal among the lower classes of the
Irish people, and has even penetrated the
barracks of the Irish police and the ranks
Of our army2 Who but the Wing gov
ernment, who having been kept an cou-
rant by their spies with the march Of
events in ireland and America, hesitated
from some unintelligible motives to
strike in the one country, or to remon-
strate in the other, until the poison of
treason was effectually spread among
the peasantry, and had even tainted the
paid and sworn defenders Of the State.
