Z USING HIS OWN THUNDER. y The
"beauty of the joke" is, that all the
harsh articles in relation to Abraham
Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, that ap-
peared in the Standard from May, 1861,
to March, 1868, were written by the
Rev. w. E. Pell, Senior Editor of the
Sentinel, then employed as Assistant
Editor of the Standard Now, he and
10 Turner and others, are using these
articles against us. During the war,
and especially after Mr.. Pell left this
office, we always spoke of the then
President as Mr.. Lincoln, and for doing
so we were ridiculed and abused by the
secession press.
Mr.. Pell was out of employment in
May, 1861, and those with whom he is
at present associated as secession par
tizan, would not employ him even as a
clerk to sign State Treasury notes, be-
;;ause he was then regarded as Union
man.
TOBACCO DEcIsIoN-The Secretary of the
Treasury has withdrawn the permission here
tofore granted to manufacture old and dam
aged tobacco, with the payment of duties
only upon the increased weight.

or made to know their places, and if the
great body of the people could be reach
ed and addressed only by unmistaka-
bly, loyal " men, the most marked inn
provement would soon be visible, and
the day would not be distant when the
old attachment to the Union would re-
vive, and would manifest itself as in for
mer times. The President has repeated
ly said that no man should be appoint
ed or elected to office in the Southern
States who is not thorougly loyal. In
deed, he has gone SO far as to say that
all persons appointed or elected should
be such as "have never faltered in their
allegianceto to the government" He has
not changed this opinion. He is willing
to pardon the great body Of those who
fomented the rebellion, and who insist
ed on fighting it out to the bitter end,
and to restore to them the protection of
the civil law; but he is infexibly OPP
posed to their taking leading part
either in Congress or in the affairs of
the States at home. He thinks that be-
fore they are received into the church,
they should "bring forth fruits meet
for repentance"
This proclamation is the finishing
step in the work of restoration, so far as
the President is concerned. HIS duty
has been ably and faithfully discharged.
1t has been discharged according to the
Constitution, and in the true spirit Of
our republican forms. 1t now remains
for the Congress to act. What that
action will be no one can foresee. The
probability that Tennessee will be ad
mitted at an early day and that, by
concurrent resolution, the two Houses
will declare that whenever the Other
States shall comply with certain condi
tions with respect to loyalty, their mem
bers also will be admitted to their seats
We do not apprehend, however, that
Congress will attempt to dictate to the
States on the subject of negro suffrage

For the Standard.

MEssRs. EDIToRs "A preliminary meet
ing of loyal men was held to-day, in the
Courthouse, in order to arrange matters for
holding County meeting.
The meeting was called to order by select
ing E. G. Copeland to occupy the chair, and
Tyler Smith, Esq, to act as Secretary.
The result of the deliberations was the con-
current agreement to give public notice
through the columns of the Standard, that q
meeting of the Union men of Wayne Coun-
ty, will be held in the Courthouse of Colds
boro', on Thursday 18th current, in order to
give public expression of their sentiments

Posi- OFF1cEs.-1t is very desirable
that post offices should be established
throughout the State. If our friends
will write us, sending names of persons
who can take the oath, we will take
pleasure in sending the applications to
the department at Washington.

We give the following as specimens
of loyalty in this State:
"But the unqualified Union men-what of
them, we again ask 2 They are either those
who, being too cowardly and base TO fight,
lay in the woods during the war. or outcasts
from Yankeedom, who have taken up their
abode among us since, to exhume our brave
dead, hycna like,) and torment and calum-
Mate the living" g."-Salis6ury Banner, Apra
4th, 1866.
Mr.. Turner, the Democrat says, was a
candidate in defiance of the Presidents proc
lamation.' We did not so read the procIa-
nation. The people of the district did not
so understand it, and they voted for the man
of their choice The people of the District
did not believe that any President, or Prince,
or earthly power, has any right to circum-
scribe and control their choice The Presi-
dent has not attempted it, and if he does, he
would most likely signally fail."-Hillsboro'
Recorder, Apra 4ti, 1856.
Both these papers are supporters of
the administration of Gov. Worth. The
latter, the Recorder, is proverbial for
its moderation, and for the absence from
its columns of every thing like passion or
vituperation.
Andrew johnson was himself an un-
qualified Union man throughout the
entire rebellion. He made his last
great speech for the Union in Jones'
borough, in May, 1861, and then fled to
save his life. He spoke on that occa-
sion with pistols pointed at him, and at
the imminent hazard of his life. He
returned to Nashville with the federal
armies, and one of the most touching
appeals we have ever read was made by
him in one of his speeches at that time,
in which he referred to the Union men
slain in the gorges of the mountains,
and Of the fact that his home was be-
yond the mountains, but he could not
go to it. Such men, says the Banner,
"are not of us" They are towards
and outcasts
One year ago, if any one in this City
had even spoken of the war as the re-
5ezzion, his life would have been in dan
ger. 1t will not be long before it will
be again Questionable, and then dan
gerous, to speak of the rebellion.
We believe there are two members Of
our State Convention, which Is to re-as-
semble on the third Thursday in May,
who fought in the federal ranks.
The Banner says "our brave dead
are being +" exhumed." This is not So
No federal officer or soldier ever speaks
unkindly or disrespectfully of the Con
federate dead or the Confederate flag
But "the Southern heart must be
fred' agai'a-and then!
