THE mortal part Of Albert Sydney
Johnston, "A General in the army Of the
Confederate States who fell in battle, an
approved soldier, an acknowledged gem
tleman, a pure, upright, humane man,
Against whose honor there had been no
charge, and whose sincerity was attested
with his blood, was buried a few weeks
after his death in the city Of New Orleans.
The faults he had, and the errors he COM
mitted, were buried with him. He had
served the country ably against foreign
foes lie was one Of the most eminent and
useful citizens ola greatand growing State
He had done treason Like all mems
lives his was a mixture of good and i'll.
Standing by his grave, no just man could
say that the good did not outbalance the
III no generous and ma9nanimous foe
would say otherwise. To men, until
transmitted into fends, the grave hightens
every virtue and covers every defect Of
its occupant
A short while after his death, New Or
leans had q military commander who
perhaps to a greater degree than any
thing Of woman born, has suffered this
transformation. His name was Butler
His face is the autograph Of infamy His
heart is a cell Of Internal passions His
hands found fit work in grabbing in the
coffin of Sydney Johnston in quest Of
treasure When it was removed a few
days since for reinterment, it was found
mutilated with the claws Of this human
hyena whose 1ScrJ tdms' dJgi had searched
a appulchre The remains were re.en-
closed by friends, and sent quietly and
unostentatiously on their mournful way
to their last resting place The state
ments in another column tell what in
dignity has befallen them, and by whom
il was done. We presume though, that
ere this, with or without escort, the body
Of Johnston is consigned to the soil in
which he wished it to repose Time, the
great corrector will assign him and his
enemies their true places in history and
his friends await the award with conf.

STATE CREDIT.

The last quotation Of Tennessee Bonds

month The gentlemen who discarded
the respectful petition Of body of eiti

sentatiyes yesterday, praying that the
public expenditures should be rctrenched
and further OUTLAWS stopped, had better
note the fact There was tone char
acterizing the brief debate not pleasant
to the taxpayers ear The Legislature
has power to appropriate the public

demonstrate against oRerous taxation.

Complaints from all quarters and all
classes are loud and deep. The people
are willing to be taxed to revive and sup
port all necessary public institutions and
works They are anxious 70 re-establish
the State credit and restore the general
prosperity. But when they perceive the
markets of the country gutted with bonds
on which the interest is larely met
and the yalue depreciating day by day,
they surely think IL is time to
