In $50, he was one Of the most yocll-
erous abusers of the foreign population to
be found in the whole nation lie ex-
hausted upon them his extensive vocabu>
larry of damnatory epithets. In 1860, he
advised the appointment Of salaried
State Emigration Commissioner TO invite
them to Tennessee, and said they would
make thrifty and useful citizens.
In 1874 he cont Heroded Herod in
support of the system Of African slavery,
and made pilgrimages to prove its divine
origin, and its economical usefulness and
necessity. In 1867, his highest boast is,
that even Wendell Phillips does not ex-
ceed him in denunciation Of shareholders,
and in fayoring the conierment Of civil
and political rights upon former slaves.
In his message Of October 1855, he
said:

ThasI Sfexeus

WAsHINGroN, April 27.-The health Of
Thad. Stevens is much improved. lie ex-
poets to leave for Pennsylvania next week.
lie to-day wrote a letter for publication,
taking his subject from the following ex-
tract from a notice of Senator Wilson's re-
cent speech near Hampton Roads: Wilson
said there would be no impediment to
Southern representation in Congress, if they
elected Union men. He closed his remarks
by saying that he would leave Virginia
with the foil conviction that Republican
Governor, Legislature and two Senators
would he elected
Mr.. Editor, such articles as this are cal
culated to do much harm. They throw
obstacles in the way Of future reeonstruc-
ton, being greatly relied on as pledges by
the Republican party. Hence much trou-
bic arises from certain loose and indefinite
expressions contained in a bill which was
reported by the Reconstruction Committee
of the thirty ninth Congress. Though
never passed, it was perverted By faction
and folly inargument against whole party
in Congress. This generally arises from
carelessness of reporters, and sometimes
from the inadvertence of speakers. No
man should make promises for party. By
what authority does any one say by election
of delegates they will be admitted? By
what authority can they say that Virginia
will elect two loyal Senators, while, in
truth, there is no Virginia. Much is to be
done by the people and Congress before any
Representative or Senator, or State, can be
recognized. Who authorized an orator TO
say there would be no confscation, as in
Al l. Il
PANTY said. 1 think they had better be
grayely pardonded. Who is authorized to
travel the country and peddle out amnes-
ties. l would say to the most guilty, expect
punishment, and then quielude; but, first a
mild coniiscation TO pay those who have
been robbed by disloyal men. These are
my wishes and mine only.

INFORMATION FOR pTSTEILERs.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer furnishes the following
items, which will interest distillers:
The meter to be used by distillers. for
the prevention of frauds, has been adopted
and prescribed by the Secretary of the
Treasury, after its careful examination by
Professors Henry and Hill Gard, Of the
National Academy of Science OF the
many examined by them they recommend
ed that Of Mr.. Tice, which has been adopt
ed. The Commissioner of Internal Reye-
niue has made arrars ements with Mr.. Tice,
for the manufacture of the meters and their
attachment 10 the distilleries of the
country.
The compensation of Mr.. Tice is to be
determined by committee appointed by
the Secretary of the Treasury, the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue and the manu-
facturers. The cost under the law is TO be
paid by the distiilers. The Department
reserves the right At any time, should the
meter prove insufficient, to rescind the con-
tract. No frauds by distillers have been
compromised since the statute Of July,
1866, was fairly in operation.
The several district attorneys of the
country are under Instructions from the
Commissioner to exhaust all the penal and
punitive provisions of the law for the pre-
yention of fraud The detective force has
been considerably increased, and it is be-
lieved that Illicit distilIation is being
gradually suppressed. Shonld the latter
prove what il is claimed to be, the receipts
from distilled spirits will be largely in
creased. r#et'I

NV YORK, April 27.-The steamer
America from southampton the 10th has
arrived.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Times believes that some means will be
found to reconcile the conflicting preten-
sions of France and Prussia.
The La France says, however, there is
one point, and one only, on which France
cannot accept of any compromise, that is.
the presence of Russian soldiers in LuX-
embourg.
It is announced that the factory of ].
Elteine has just delivered 10000 needle
gunsto the French Minister of War.
The establishment is said to be in a po-
sition to be able to claim the premium of
$4,000 francs offered by the government, for
the completion of 100000 rifles by the end
of April.
The France says that the news circulated
about the calling ont of the reserve is de-
void of all foundation.
The Gazette of France says: We are
informed that the Florence cabinet has al
ready caused il TO be minated to the
French government, that in case of war
between France and Prussia, Italy would
be on the side of her allies of 1856.
The Ayenier Rationale is to be prosecu-
ted for having promulgated false news, in
having asserted that military preparations
were being made at Lyons, and that certain
warlike steps were being taken by the-War
Department.
The French Legisllai1f body adopted
bill relative to imprisonment for debt.
The bill comforting pension on Larma-
tine was also passed.
In the North German parliament Bis
mark announced that the Federal govern
ment would accept most of the amendments
10 the drafts of the constitution.
Bismark said, "If opposition prevents
me from completing the work have be-
gun, shall request the King to relieve
me of my post Subsequently Parlia-
ment took action on Bismarck's request.
A letter from Crete of March Goth, says
that every attempt of the Turks to advance
beyond the open country of the northe IN
shore, has been repuIsed with loss.

ST.. LOUIS. April 27.-The Democrat
this morning, editorially contradicts, by
authority, the statement that Governor
Fletcher viii permit purchasers of the
Southwestern Branch railroad to retain
possession without the performance of con-
tract. 1t says that if such statements have
beer made in Wall street, to facilitate the
selling of bonds, they are utterly without
foundation and are wholly false.
