Democrats already.
Gen. Thomas is much better. and was at
Cincinnati Wednesday,, on his way back to
Tennessee 1t is not impossible that his
sickness was largely owing to :. indisposi-
ton : to supersede Gen. Sheridan.
The President declines to furnish to the
press Gen Grants letter against the remov
al of Stanton, because it is marked s.private, :
which is reason enough. He has not ALWAYS
been 50 careful about publishing private let
tcrs. Perhaps he doesn't see how a publ
cation OF this one would help him or damage
Grant.
By order of General Grant no payment of
bounty will be made on discharge papers I'M
less the identity Of the soldier is properly
established, and the paymaster has 5eeived
notice OF the signing of the papers from the
proper officer, These precautions are to
prevent frauds by means of forged papers.
1t is reported that orr government has
taken an active interest in saving the life of
Santa Anna, and has sent dispatches to our
acting minister in Mexico TO urge President
Juarez TO deal with him literally. In ad-
dition to this, a special envoy has been sent
to Mexico with instructions to secure. if
possible, lenient treatment of Santa Anna
while he is in prison.
Gen Grant has ordered the res toratiop of |
the old punishments for desertion, such as
shooting and branding, on account of the /
great increase of assertions lately
The internal revenue receipts for some two
weeks have not exceeded the average of half
million of dollars per day
General Grant has asked to be excused
rom cabinet meetings except when military
matters are under discussion.

y committee chosen by the Germans of
Milwaukee has published an address to the
Germans of Wisconsin. advising them to
support only such candidates as are pledged
against prohibitory liquor and Sunday laws.
They say that they constitute more than one
third Of the population Of the state, and that
they are entitled to have their opinions and
feelings respected. The Democrats of Wis
consin will not make much by this move
ment, as the Germans in that state are mostly
Democrats already.

In another column will be found COM
munication over the signature Of Many
Virginians' presenting the claims of our dis
tinguished fellow citizen, Thomas J Niche,
to the consideration Of our people for the 90,
sition Of Governor, at the approaching cleo
ton to be. held the fourth Thursday in May,
next.
He needs no commentator at our hands
his reputation as gentleman of high char
acter, extensive legal attainments, and I'M
bending integrity, is proverbial throughout
the State, and if elevated to that high posi-
ton by the sovereign voice Of the people, he
would, we are satisfied, discharge the duties
thus imposed upon him, in such manner as
would reflect credit upon himself, and at the
same time also advance the great interests Of
this Commonwealth.

ANOTHER VEro MESSAGE FROM THE PREs-
IDhST. - WasAington, January 2S-The
President to-day returned the act admitting
the territory Of Colorado. His sense Of du-
y, ne says, prevents his approval Of tt
With the exception Of the additional clause,
IS che same vetoed in May last, and which
still awaits the reconsideration of the Senate
He is unable to perceive reasons for changing
his opinions, and only sees additional reasons
| confirming the wisdom Of his former veto.
ANOTHER ONE, JAM Goth. The Nebras-
ka veto confines the argument to the incon-
slstency with the enabling act and the Con-
stitution Of the additional section comforting
suffrage on all citizens by legislative faction.
1t is contrary to the wording of the Consti-
tuition, on which Nebraska CLANS her admis-
sion. The President maintains indirectly,
but positively, the right Of States to regulate
the franchise within their, borders, and urges
that organic changes, which are proposed by
Congress, should be submitted to the people
Of Nebraska.

The recent decision of Judge Meredith
against the constitutionality Of the Stay Law
seems to have attracted the attention Of the
Legislature, for in the House, on Friday,
we notice that the committee of Courts of
Justice, consisting of Messrs Seawell, Mar
shall, Wilson, Goode, Crump, Herndon,
Dickinson, Cabell, Woodson, Wyatt, Beck
EN-, Jones and Evans, submitted a report on
the constitutionality of the law, is which the
decision of Judge Meredith is declared to be
erroneous This committee is composed
of the first legal talents in the Legislature,
if not in the State, and their united opinions
are certainly entitled to at least as much
weight as the decision Of any one Judge.
Indeed, no great legal talents are necessary
to show the utter fallacy of Judge Meredith's
decision, for had that honorable gentleman
gone to s,,eep in the Katskill mountains with
Rip Van Win,,,sle, some fifty years ago, and
remained in a state Of unconscious torpor
until the last gun Of Tee had died away on
the plains Of Appomattox, lie could not have
rendered an opinion more direct, ), IN conflict
with the highest Judicial decisions OF the
country, and the changed circumstances AID
necessities Of the people and the State

1867, with the view of providing further means
for the prosecution Of the work in which they
have long been engaged, in which much has been

Of life; yet, this is all we can now accord. Let

ING and even desperate diseases of the lungs by
its use When once tried its superiority over
every other expectorant is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known,
the public no longer hesitate what antldote to
employ for the distressing and dangerous atfec-
lions of the pulmonary organs that are incident
to our climate. While many inferior remedies
thrust upon the community have failed and been
discarded, this has gained friends by every trial,
conferred benefits on the afflicted they can never
forget and produced cures too numerous and
too remarkable to be forgotten.
We can OILY assure the public thatits quality

Major General Benjamin r. Butler, III. D.:
Sir,-Your note is before me by to-days
mail, and duly noted. AS at present consti-
tuted, with a natural disgust for thieves, rob-
bers, turn coats, military blunderers, bank
robbers, women insulters, and evil hearted
scoundrels generally, permit me in all kind
ness, to say that [ have no retraction to make
to you, for never published a word con-
corning you [ did not believe true, and which
you must know to be true as holy writ if
you are at all familiar with your own dis
honorable history as a public being, digni-
fed by accident of birth with the name of
man. l would not willingly injure your
feelings, Or depriue you of your eoorld-aclde
Reputation, SO well earned in the service of
Butler rs. honesty, patriotism, and virtue.
Nor do [ wish you to die yet awhile, for your
name, history, plumbers, robberies, insults
to women, and treason to your country, are
valuable as warnings to the rising genera
ton.
Believing you to be all have ever charged
you with BENG, confident III my full ability
to prove every charge, you are politely priv
LEGGED to let the law take its course, when
the world will know more Of your roboeries,
history, ambitions, &C., too numerous to
mention
The only favor I ask Of you is this: If you
conclude to go on with your suit for libel
and damages to the amount Of $500, 600,
permit me to plead my own case in court,
and give me olly time to put my spoons,
silverware, watches, jewelry, &C., in some

the trial is over.

BEHAVIOR IN CoMPANY.-On the
subject of behavior in company, Leigh
Richmond gives the following excel
lent advice to his daughter:
"Be cheerful, but not gigglers. Be
serious, but not dull. Be communi-
cative, but not forward. Be kind,
but not servile. Beware of silly,
thoughtless speeches; although you
forget them, others will not. Remem-
ber Gods eye is in every face, and
his eye in every company. Beware
of levity and familiarity with young
men; a modest reserve, without fami-
liarity, is the only safe path. Court
and encourage serious conversation
with those who are truly serious and
conversable; do not go into valuable
company without endeavoring to i'm
prove by the intercourse permitted
to you. Nothing is more unbecoming,
when one part of the company is
engaged in profitable conversation
than that another part should be trif
ling, giggling and talking comparative
nonsense to each other"

Td7THER's SIMPLE LIFE.-Luther'

LUTHER's SIMPLE LIFE. .-Luther's
own life was a model of quiet simpli-
city. He remained poor. He might
have had money if he had wished, but
he chose rather, amidst his enormous
labor, to work at a turning lathe for
his livelihood.
He was sociable, cheerful, fond of
innocent amusements, and delighted to
encourage them. His table talk, col
lected by his friends, makes one OF
the most brilliant books in the world.
He had no monkish theories about the
necessity of abstinence; but he was
temperate from habit and principle
A salt herring and bunch of bread
was his ordinary meal, and he was
once four days without food of any
sort, having emptied his larder among
The poor.
