The Reyoluuonnry Programmc.

Once it was quite important that a mar
sustained the Administration, in order
that his loyalty should stand unimpeached
and unoues,ioned, All through the war,
to oppose the Administration Of Abraham
Lincoln was prinaa facis evidence OF sym.
pathy with rebels. The argument was
this: Mr.. Lincoln is attempting to SUBJ
due the rebellion and restore the Union
whoever opposes him, and weakens his
power and effectiveness, is indirectly aid
ing the cause Of d%isunion. Two-thirds OF
the members of Congress elected during
the war were, at heart, bitterly opposed to
Mr.. Lincoln, and would have openly
fought him, could they have persuaded
the people to follow them. BUT the peo.
pie had grea, faith in the honesty and
ability Of MI. Lincoln, and refused to dis
own him. They stood by him to the end,
and nobly sustained all his efforts to re-
store the Union. Congress played the
hypocrite continually-hating, but fearing
to openly oppose the President.
When Mr.. Johnson succeeded to the
Presidential Chair he was comparatively
without friends. He had not the prestige
nor the power of his predecessor. He
adopted and pursued the identical policy
inaugurated by Mr.. Lincoln, but Congress
unmarked itself and waged a bitter war
him. Mr.. johnson must then
take a position which would induce all
the friends Of the Union to rally to his
aid, or he must be crushed by the enemies
Of a Union of the States. He chose not
to be crushed. and is yet alive, as the ex-
tremists have learned to their sorrow.
He aims simply to restore the Union.
II those who opposed Mr.. Lincoln in his
efforts to preserve the Union, were traitors,
what are those who oppose his successors
efforts in the same directions Then, as
now. the theory of these men was: The
government, must be sustained; the ad-
ministration is the government. But now
they go a triHe further and declare that
Congress is the administration Thad.
Stevens is Congress: The President is a
traitor if he refuses to support Stevens A:
the people are Copperheads if they sup
port the President.
In all this we have n consolation.
This revolutionary programme cannot
easily be carried through. The efforts Of
these men will fail, and the authors Of the
scheme will be overwhelmed in ridicule
and con,empt.-St. Joseph Herald.

CoSsIsrgNcY.-When the question oil
Secession was being seriously agitated in
lS6O'-6l, Mr.. Greeley con,ended~ earnestly
that the people of the Southern States had
a right to secede. II they had a right to
secede, Of course they had a right to fight
for secession. Therefore, according to
Mr.. Greeley's theory, it is wrong to i'm.
prison Davis for doing that which he had
a right to do hence his earnest efforts to
secure his release. Again. Messrs. Gree.
lev, Stevens and their associates contend
that the Southern Confederacy was a gov
eminent de taeto and de jurei that the
States which composed that ~Confederacy
are now conquered provinces, and its in
habitants subject to be treated according
to the laws of war. The laws Of war do
not allow prisoners of war to be held in
confinement after war has ceased, unless
such prisoners have violated those laws.
| Greeley, Stevens and Wilson assert that
they do not believe Davis has violated the
laws Of war. Hence, in e~ndeavoring to
secure Davis release, Greeley is acting in
strict consistency with all his previously,
expressed and now entertained theories
and opinions.-S. F. Call.

do about -two-thirds the labor they accom-
phi, he'd before the war, and some put it a lit
tie higher still. But estimating each hand
employed, as good as in 1860, and we cannot
under the most favorable seasons expect
more than half crop, or 100000 bales
There cannot be more than one-half the
land planted, which was cultivated in 1860,
For want of effective stock, and the compel
led use ofinferior implements, the prepara-
ton for the crop has been very imperfect
The scarcity and consequent high price of
seed has compelled our planters to put too
little seed in the earth-their planting will
be the cause of bad stands. The condition
of the plough animals is very poor, on ac-
count of the great scarcity of corn, resulting
from the failure of the negroes to work and
house the last crop.
Taking all these things into consideration,
we do not believe that a crop of more than
eighteen hundred thousand bales can be pos
sibly raised this year. If there should be an
early frost, or any very great extremes ofwet
or dry weather, it will fall short of that
amount. Indeed, there are so many acci-
dents likely to affect the growth of the plant,
that it would be extremely hazardous to
make an estimate ofthe crop, save upon the
grounds which we have taken.

in 1860. Thus we have for the production
OF the present crop but little over one-half
the labor employed in 1860.
In properly estimating the extent of the
growing crop, we should also beaf in mind
the infirm character of the labor now en-
ployed as compared to that Of 1850. The
experiment of free negro labor is yet to be
worked out. We believe that they are so far
doing much better than the most hopeful
had anticipated No one with whom we
have communicated, however, rates them as
full as efficient laborers as under the old sys-
fem. Something must he allowed for this
deficiency in the character of our present la
Dor. This, as a matter of course, is mere
matter ofconjecture. Some say they are only
half as efficient as formerly--some think they

We have seen that about three hundred

Queenstown (Jane 81 Correspondence London Times.
The first of the Fenian invaders who made or
attempted no concealment OF his objects, was
captured to-day upon the arrival of the tender
from the City of Ne1 York, when that vessel
approached the harbor on her homeward voyage
One OF the assengers, Richard Quinn, who is
a shoemaker when not employed in military
affairs, requested the captain to steam directly
into Queenstown, as he had particular business
there. The captain objected, as he had TO go on
to Liverpool, and suggested that the tender
might answer as well. Quinn at first was dis
posed to dissent from this view, but when the
tender came alongside he announced himself
satisfied. As soon as she was fast by the
vessel he jumped on board her, and
pulling out, theatroally, Fenian fac,
waved 1t over his head, and completed the ia,
bleau by brandishing pistol. A single detective,
however, who was on board, came forward and
arrested HIM. The valiant Fenian made no at
tempt at resistance, but as soon as he saw the
policeman approaching him he flung the pistol
over the side, When the tender landed he was
searched, and there were found upon hlm, be.
