War With a Corpse.


GALVESTON, January 24-By order of
the Secretary of War Gen. Griffin has
assumed the Office of Assistant Commits
sioner of the Freedmen's Bureau, reliev-
ing Gen. Kiddo. Gen. Griffin forbds
the contemplated honors being paid to
the remains of Gen. A. S. Johnston.
Is it not almost time that we ceased
fighting dead men? Or have we host
of Griflins still remaining, who are anx-
ious to gain blushing honors by squad
bling over coffin and shooting a mill
tary order at band of mourners
One would think that after the body of
Gen. Johnston had rested two years at
New Orleans, the odor of sanctity left
by Buffers presence might eliminate
from the rebellious dust all traces of
" disloyalty and render it perfectly safe
to be buried, with Or without honors, in
Texas.
But Griffin commands at Galveston
Griffin is anxious for fame, and Griffin
issues pronunciamento-and we hope
the country is safe. Griffin deserves a
sword of lath and crown Of guano. If
Griffin could be ordered TO Fort Laramie
and let loose similar order against the
Sioux and Cheyennes, what a crowd Of
redskins would be killed by the jaw-bone
of an ass Alton Democrat, 28tk.

Countess de Noailles upon the benefit of
going barefoot In support of her views
she instances the magnificent gait of a
barefoot Highland girl and the elastic
play Of every muscle, and compares her
feet with those girls who have been tor
tured in boots" In thus arraying her
self against the shoemakers the Countess
may be very eloquent, but we doubt
much If she or any one else who can
afford TO wear shoes viii go without them.
The barefoot Highland girl may have
magnificent gait, but in freezing
weather the magni6eence Of the gait
must be considerably modified.

PETTIFnGGERs.

The New York Express hopes, if Bout

from practicing in the Courts of the
United States any person engaged in the
late rebellion, or who gave it aid, com
fort or encouragement, that not a law
yer can be found in this whole laud who
will thus attempt to rob brother lawyer
Of his living. 1t is TO be hoped that
everywhere the esprit de corps of this
noble profession is such that no petit
logger mean enough can be found thus
to dsbar a brotheI member" Though
Boutwell, is no lawyer. he is the Puritan
in spirit, and there are hundreds Of Law
yers who share his contracted views, and
will applaud his action in this matter.

noble profession.

WILL NOT CONTRACT.

The NississippiaH says a great many
complaints are still being made of the
inability to employ freedmen to work on
plantations. They are not disposed, a
great many of them, to hire for wages or
q portion of the crop. How they intend
to make a living is more than we are
able to tell, unless they do it by pilfering.
Of course there are some honorable ex-
ceptions who seem disposed to make an
honest living by their labor. Some other
kind of labor will have to be introduced
in the South, and that of the African
almost entirely dispensed with.

THE IMPEACHMENT.

A special to the Cincinnati Enquirer,
SAYS: Notwithstanding the indications
in the House proceedings that class of
its members intend to make short work
of the impeachment proposition and at
once depose Mr.. Johnson, there is good
reason for believing that the majority of
the Republican members have become
confirmed in their intention to oppose
the movement as impolitic, if not upon
more substantial objections. As the sub
iect is more or less the theme Of private
conversation each day, the purpose OF
Mr.. Ashley and his confreres become the
subject of discussion, and necessarily the
standing of the great impeacher' is con-
sidered. Beside the alleged probable con-
spiracy of Mr.. Ashley in the raising of
fund of $500 by brokers in New York,
as an inducement for offering the resolu-
ton looking to impeachment, 1t also
comes that Ashley purchased the vote of
New York member in favor of the
amendment abolishing slavery, during
the last Congress, the consideration of
the vote being a desirable Office, which
Ashley claimed to have got the disposal
of, for that purpose, from Mr.. Lincoln.
That such member should be the leader
in matter so important as the impeach-
ment of the President, is notifying to
the great body Of the members.

THE SOUTHERN STATES.

The New York Times in an editorial
on the reconstruction problem, says that
every theory Of restoration or recon
struction which has been promulgated is
more or less illogical in one or another
of its parts. No settlement seems posi-
BILE which will not involve certain incon-
sistencies in the course of its develop
ment." Referring TO the recent speech
of Mr.. Bingham, it says " To sumbit a
constitutional amendment for ratification
to the excluded States, andsthen to deny
their organized and sovereign exis-
teuce, is an inconsistency not easily
explained. They can ratify only as
States; and if they are States when the
ratification of an amendment to the Con-
s:;.ation is concerned, they are also
States as against the territorializing pro-
gramme of Mr.. Stevens"

nnR1AL OF GOV. ALLEN.

The New Orleans Times Of the 2sth'
says: 1.-THE Bayard of Louisiana, the
heroic and beloved Henry W. Allen, re-
ceived yesterday the last sad rites and
honors due to departed worth and virtue.
In another column will be found the full
details of the ceremonies Imposing
and solemn as they we're, they were but a
feeble expression of the profound re-
spect admiration and love with whiehthe
noble deceased was regarded by every
citizen Of Louisiana.
Not even partisan or sectional hos
tlity-not all the reyengeful thoughts
and passions eugendered by war, oil
which he was one Of the victims-could
suppress or restrain that natural i'm
pulse, of every honest and generous
heart. to unite ia the testimonials ofre-
spect to n man of such rare and singular
virtue. Even those who had been ar
rayed against the deceased in mortal
conflict could not withhold their admira-
ton from one, who so heroically gave
his life to the cause to which he pledged
himself. and who in the maintenance OF
that cause displayed so many knightly
qualities, such brilliant courage, heroic
fortitude, lofty devotion and selfsacri-
fee. The circumstance of the death of
Dur hero we're peculiarly impressive.
Bloodless and heartless must be that man
who can recall and contemplate the in
,idents Of his brief and brilliant career
and his melancholy death without pro-
Tound emotions of mingled admiration
and regret

As an index of the spirit of the two

Congress might be free from cowardice
the pastor of the church South, that Con-

A annn REASON.

The Rev. Henry Ward Beeeher, in his
lecture ON Universal Suffrage" gives
the following, among other reasons, for
extending the franchise to woman. God,
when he made woman, made her to be u
mother, and necessarily schoolmistress,
and therefore legislator, and con
sequently she ought TO be such; when
mothers foresight, and mothers love,
laboring only for the future welfare OF
her own children, knowing what was
most needed, she would be the one to
exercise law to meet the wants of the
people.
