SECRETARY STANTON. We can hardly
credit the statement, so eagerly pa
raded 10y the Democratic prints, that
Secretary Stanton approves OF the
Presidents reconstruction policy. 1t
is denied by several prominent repub-
licans, who say That Mr. Stanton will
in due time define his position, We
certainly hope he will; the country
would like to hear from him. Tom
Florence, the editor of the ConsfHu-
ttonal onion, evidently thinks that the
War Secretary agrees with the Presi-
dent, as will be seen from the follow
ing paragraph;
1--WE are highly grntified that the
Secretary of War, whose impetuosity
of energy and fiery zeal in the perfor-
nance of what he considers right, Dc
not initiate against his sound, sagaci
Gus political Judgment, should have
perceived the truth and the wisdom o
President Johnson's craftsmanship
not alone from the fact that this re
storation policy ~ from its intrinsi
merits, commands the hearty approvi
of SO original n thinker, so earnest
worker, SO capable Minister as Seer,
tary Stanton, although this bare fac
is the weightiest argument as to il
wisdom and its adaptability to til
wants of the country, but also froi
the weight which this public indors'
ment from Mr.. Stanton will give it. .

The amount of personal property

dollars The whole city was nearly

There are among. them the sons of the
richest men in Chill, and they have a
most complete organisation, working

Several women who remained in the
city during the hombardment were cut

believe that their city was to be at
tackled, even at the last moment.
Our fleet went in as soon as the
Spaniards ceased FIRE, and sent sailors
ashore to help work the engines; and
glad they were to get them, as the FIRE
men were quite exhausted When
our tars got hold of The brakes they
worked with a will, at the same time

LEE For PRESIDENT. The Mobile
Register is a great admirer of the reb-
el Gen. Lee. 1t thinks he ought to
be elected President, and therefore
places his name at the head of its
reasonable columns. The Memphis
Argus, however, objects. 1t don't
think that tho grand old mans
time has yet come, Read what the
argus says:
Surely, they are no good or true
friends of this grand old man, who, in
the present posture of affairs, would
drag his great name into the filthy
arena of strife. Not till new anc
better spirit shall prevail in the poll
tics of this country, and the country
shall call for its best men TO stand and
serve in high places, will it be possible
or appropriate to dignity the Presi
dentisl char with a second, and
greater than Washington.
If. in the approaching politica
struggles, it becomes necessary or adj
visable, or proper, to designate some
conservative candidate for the Presi
dency in 1865, in our opinion he .-oul
present leader, the great statesman o
Iennessee-is the man.
