constitute a majority Of all the citizens; on
what possible ground could Congress have dis
franchsed the majority, and handed over the
power to the minority' The thing is prepos-
ferrous. 1t could not be done. In recognizing
no distinctions among the people, Congress has
adhered to the letter and spirit of the Consti-
tuition and is reoonstructing the South upon
a constitutional no less than a republican basis.
From this bret review, it will he seen how
firm and impregnabe is the position occupied
by the Republican party Its whole record is
luminous with devotion to the Constitution
It's course has been consistent and logical
throughout. Grant the war to have been
constitutional and all the other steps follow
in necessary succession. And it is significant
that the enemies of the Republican party have
assailed each of its acts, from the commence
ment of the war down to the passage of the
Reconstruction bill, with equal bitterness.
The real author of the message vetoing the
Reconstruction bill maintained, as a member
of James Buchanans Cabinet, at the breaking
out of the war, that it was unconstitutional to
use coercion against the Rebels. There has
been a paralelsm throughout the whole
struggle-the Rebels and their allies, with their
false and fallacious theories of the Constitu-
tion, on the one side, and the great masses of
the people, acting through the Republican
party in defense of the Constitution and the
Union, on the other.

I'VE are perhaps even more gratified at au-
other item of news than with those notice
above, viz, that Generals Sherman, Schotield.
Meade, Hancock, and Mcdowell will command
the Southern military districts. These officers,
we believe, will preserve order and protect the
communities under their authority with vigi-
lance and fairness. There is not fanatic
amongst them. They are gentlemen and regu-
lar army officers, and from the experience of
our people, they know how far preferable such
officers are to political Generals. Richmond

PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL.
A GREAT REMEDY FOR THE CURE OF
THROAT AND LUNG DISEASES.
PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL.

PINE TREE TAR CORDLAL.
1t is the vital principle of the Pine Tree OBJ
tanned by peculiar process In the distlllation
of the tar, by which its highest medical pro-
perties are retained.
1t is the only safe and reliable remedy which
has ever been prepared from the juice OF the
Pine Tree.
1t invigorates the digestive organs, and re-
stores the appetite.
1t strengthens the debiitated system.
1t purifes and enriches the blood, and expels
from the system the corruption which scrofula
breeds on the lungs.
IL dissolves the mucus or phlegm which stops
the air passages Of the lungs.
Its healing principle acts upon the irrtated
surface of the lungs and throat, penetrating to
each diseased part, relieving pain and subduing
Inflammation.
1t is the result of years of study and experi-
ment, and 1t is offered to the afflicted with the
positive assurance of its power to cure If the
patient has not too long delayed resort TO the
means OF cure.
CAUTION.

of the lives of the sick, and with view solely
to their own pockets, are making ana VendlnS

value their health and life against purchasing
any OF the many preparations offered for sale

Tree is blown on the bottle; all Others being
wicked imposition to deceive the suffering and

SENsBLE.-The best advice which has been
rendered to the Southern people comes from
the Atlanta LnteAigmcer which says:-"Let
our people go to work and leave politics and
party alone! In industrial pursuits they will
find individual prosperity; that will soon pro-
duce prosperity in the State; and general
prosperity realized, political freedom will as
surely follow as night does the day" Now,
some such advice is much needed, and that it
will likely go unheeded, is shown by the arti-
Gle of Raphael Semmes in his paper, the
Memphis Bmiein:-
I'VE would scour the pine woods of Misss-
sippi and Alabama tomorrow, and drive before
us hundreds and thousands of active, stalwart
young white laborers who are wasting their
time il utter and entire idleneSs, because they
are TOO proud or too lazy to work. Many of the
families TO which these young vagabonds be-
long are almost in a starving condition, some
OF them being the actual reciDientS of charity

and buildings near Milwaukee, Wiscon-
sin, Three asylums will hereafter be
opened to all disabled volunteer soldiers.
Nearly one thousand such have been
cared for or assisted by the National
Asylum within the past quarter. A
committee was appointed to issue pro-
posals for new buildings at Milwaukee,
and TO select either White Sulphur
Springs or Dayton for the location Of
new asylum in Ohio. An executive com
mittee to take charge Of the asyIums
and administer outdoor relief was APP
pointed for the year, consisting Of Gen.
Butler, Gov. Smyth Mr.. Gunckel and
Gen. Martindale. The report shows that
the number Of disabled soldiers having
neither money, homes nor friends is
much larger than was supposed, but the
board are determined to make ample
provision for all. A fund estimated at
five millions of dollars placed by Con-
gress in their hands for this purpose
will enable them to do this work fully
and well.

ACTUAL STARVATION IN SOUTH CARO-
LINA.-Col. John B. Palmer, the agent OF
the New York Southern Relief Com
mission in Lexington District, s. O., re-
ports, April 9Th, two cases of actual
starvation, which have come under his
own ohservatiOn-an aged widow and
daughter, who had existed for some time
on the garbage thrown into the streets,
and were In the agonies of death when
discovered by him. Some poor creatures
had come to him from twenty miles dis
lance, spending two days in dragging
their emaciated bodies to the place of
relief. A widow, belonging to one Of
the most distinguished and once ahiuent
families in the State, had made appliCa-
ton to the agent for money enough to
open little thread and needle store, in
which she might employ her daughters,
and earn subsistence. She wrote: II
have one small loaf Of bread in my
house, upon which my entire family
must dine. We have nothing for sup
per; and our Heavenly Father only
knows where will procure our breakfast
tomorrow" Another lady, also re.
duced from wealth to abject poverty, had
inquired, If one OF her class could have
little corn, saying that hitherto she
and her daughters had been able barely
to support themselves by their needles;
but that now the restitution all around
them was so great that no work what.
ever could be had.
Colonel Palmer was distributing sup
plies to about so families in his district.
The whole amount contributed in New
York for the use OF the Relief Commits.

PETRTFIcATIoN.-A correspondent, al,
luding to the letter which we published
recently about the petrided remains
found in Pittsford, states that he was
present when one Of the graves was
opened, and noticed that "about one
half way from the surface to the coffin,
at the head of the grave, was q lime.
stone rock, perhaps two feet in diane
ter, projecting over the remains. 1t
was thought by some professional gen,
tlemen that the petrifcation was caused
by the teaching Of this rock upon the
remains"
