is TREASON a CRIME!

A little more than two years ago, the
so-called President OF a so-called Confed-
eracy, was flying in haste and terror from
his capital, where during four long, bloody
years of war he had intrenched himself
and maintained his supremacy. In his
pride, and arrogance, and relentless hate,
he had directed all the energies of the
people under him to effect the destruction
of that Government to which he and they
owed loyalty and obedience. Rivers Of
blood had been shed, prisoners of war had
been deliberately sta. we'd and murdered
and revolving crimes against God and hu-
manity had been committed.
No wonder that the prime mover Of all
this misery and bloodshed should fee like
a craven from the vengence of the Gov
eminent against which he had rebelled
The vigilance of our brave soldiers, how.
ever, did not allow him to escape, and he
was captured, and held to await his doom
Death, imprisonment for life, or Danish
ment would be mild punishment for one
responsible for such great crimes as his
But the people have SO long waited in
vain to see justice awarded this arch
traitor, that many have been led to be-
lieve that treaon, after all, is not SO grea
crime as it was supposed to be.
A large class of people at tie south
and many at the north, even seem t.
regard treason as a virtue. The events
of the past and present week will only
strengthen this conviction. On Saturday
last Mr.. Davis was taken from Fortress
Monroe to Richmond, in answer to wri
of habeas corpus issued some few day,
since. Judging from the accounts which
we receive, his journey was not much Xix,
| that Of a captive going to justice, blu
rather like the excursion of some wealthy
| gentleman travelling for pleasure. TX
avoid wounding his sensibilities no guards
attended him, and on his arrival at Rich
mond, he was given suit of rooms
splendidly furnished, at the Spottswooe
House The whole transaction, thus far
app ears very much like huge farce.

DR.. REEDS REPoRT.-We surrender
large share of our space this week to
the very able report of Hon W. W. Reed
trusting it will prove both interesting and
instructive to the mass of our readers. It
relates to a subject which is mparatively
new to most Of us, but ne, neverthe less,
of much Importance. DR.. Reed has han
died it in mastery style, and his re-
port shows great research and thorough
investigation. During the time which
DR.. Reed served in the Legislature, he
always identified himself with the in
terests Of our charitable and benevolent
institutions, and labored zealously for the
amelioration Of the condition of the un-
fortunate members of society. The bill
referred to in the report passed the AS
sembly, but was defeated in the Senate
The friends of the measure intend to push
it forward at the next session of the Leg
islature, and hope to witness its triump b.

THE LABOR MovEMEN THE war
between the workingmen and the capital
lists in Chicago still goes on. The me
chanics refuse to Hrk ten hours
but ask for eight hours work with eight
hours pays. This the employers will not
agree to, and SO cessation of work is the
consequence. In some few establishments
the men have gone to work on the eight
hour system, and small number of men
also are working ten hours day. It is
probable, however, that majority of those
who struck for eight hours work on May
LIST are still out of employment

The Chicago Republican says ''The
speaking tours of Senator Wilson and
Judge Kelley through the South are the
significant political events Of the present
month. The former arrival at Atlanta,
Ga, on Thursday last, where he addressed
an audience composed more largely than
usual Of whites, among whom were Gen.
Pope, Gen. Saxton, ex-Gov Brown, and
many prominent citizens. At Augusta,
he was honored by the colored people with
a torch-light procession. The fact that be
was introduced to the audience at Allan
ia by thoroughly reconstructed rebel
Colonel is indicative of the change that
has come over public sentiment in the
South since persons suspected Of disbe-
lieving in the divinity Of slavery were
warned to leave the country or made the
victims of mob vengeance. Judge Kelley
had highly complimentary public recep-
ton on his arrival at New Orleans on
Thursday, and responded at the st. Charles
Hotel"

RICHMOND, Va, May 11-Mr. Jefer.
son Davis arrived at Richmond at six o.
m. day, in charge of General Burton
preparatory to his production in court on
Monday in answer to the writ of ha5aes
corpus issued come days since. He came
on the boat from Fortress Monroe, &C.
companied by Mrs. Davis, Mr. Burton,
n. Harrison, his former Private Secre-
tary, Mr.. Robert Ould, and other friends.
The distinguished prisoner is lodged in
comfortable quarters at the Spottswood
Hotel, accessible ito the sympathizing
visits of friends, and in the lightest pos
slble durance; if any. Perhaps his lodg-
ment at this pleasant place, rather than
within the dreary walls of Libby, may be
accepted as an augury that the intentions
of the Government toward him are not
such rs need to excite the apprehensions
Of his friends.

LOCOMOTIVE AND MoRMoNIsM.-The
Pacific Railroad, Tho road which is to
connect Albany with San Francisco and
Salt LaAe, is going ahead very rapidly.
Rails are being put down at the rate Of
two miles per day. This is equal to sew
en- hundred miles in year SUCH ener-
gy will finish up the road in very short
S ace eft time, We think the road will
be ready for locomotives and oil cans by the
LIST of May, 1870. In that year we ex-
pect to do the distance from Albany to
tho Pacific ia four days, aud to Salt Lake
City In three days and half. Ten
years from now we expect to see excur-
sion trains made up in this city for the
purpose of having week shooting on
the Rocky Mountains, or flying trip to
see how Brigham Young managers seven
ty-rhree wives and three hundred and
nineteen children IN Utah The Pacific
Railroad will give sad blow to Mormon
ism 1t will throw fresh population
into Utah. The most Of this pop lation
will consist of young men. These young
men insist on fair division of the wo.
men and will MOI allow Brigham Young
or any othor Saint to SO monopolize the
| wife markets as to leave no comtor for
others Brigham's grating process is
fast coming to an end. The first Iocomo-
tive that enters Salt Lake CRY will dc
more to divert the spread of Mormonism
than all the laws that Congress could pass
In twenty five years, backen up by all the
sermons and editorials which could be

locomotive. Brigham Young has nc
worse enemy, while virtue and common
sense has no better friend. Selah!

And wither meath her ban,
Go, grasp his hand in fellowship,
And prove yourself a MAN
Whate'er you SOW in needless youth,
In manhood you will reap.
Then walk in virtues path of truth,
And Gods commandments keep,
For virtue is the surest friend
Since life and time began
Then with her arms your soul defend,
And prove yourself MAN
Whene'er you see some Irish slave
To English rule incline,
For English gold the sordid knave,

From peasants born, or nobly sprung,
Howe'er his life-stream ran,

For Ireland oft your fathers dreed
Misfortune's doomful wrath,
But yet in Ireland's darkest need
Still tread the patriots path.
A day shall come, whose glorious wind
Her victor flags will fan,
With christian soul and patriot mind,

What the Republican Party desire Is JUSTICE

THAT it WILL HAVE Wyoming Republican.
Why this extreme solicitude for the
blacks? What rights are denied them
Are they not free to 60 and come when
and where they please? Are they no,
protected by radical laws in crowding
themselves into our Ladies' cars-where
white men are often excluded? Are they
not fed and supported by the hard earned
money OF the white men? Are not the
roilllons expended yearly through the
Bureau" sufficient to satisfy them and
their white faced brethren
Something more, it seems is wanted
Our radical editor says they know how
to vote on the side of intelligence, freedom
and right"
Our State constitution give this right tc
"white men,. Here is the rub with the
tender hearted niger, loving RAIDS. The
right to vote IS what they desire and viii
have" for their colored pets. Will the
white men aidt hem in extending the rights
of negroes?
Are not the white men of the country
who support themselves and the nigger.

~ In an article opposing somebody's
plan for paying off the Federal bonds with
a new issue of greenbacks, the New York
Tribune says, "Such an act would shame
any swindler who ever uttered counterfeit
money or passed off bogus checks" and
that no one will countenance any of these
devices for evading debts instead of pay
ing them, who is not in heart and soul a
villain" What, then, does it say to the
act of the Radical officials of Pennsylvania
who, couple OF years ago, repudiated the
contract which the State had entered into
to pay interest on the State loan in coin,
and gave its creditoas greenbacks? Are
they swindlers and villains?
If it was constitutional and honest to
pay good debts in greenbacks, it will be
constitutional and honest to do it again.

Resolutions of Radical Co. Convention.
"The following preamble and resolutions
were offered by A. Hine and unanimously
adopted.
WHEREAS, The Republican party 10 a
party of patriotism, decency, morality, and
opposed to vice and crime. Therefore
RESOLVED, That it is the sense of this
convention that it would be wise and ju-
dicious to extend the law prohibiting the
sale of intoxicating drink throughout the
State.
Resolved, That intemperance is a great
evil, and that the sale of Intoxicating drink
should be prohibited by law, aud that we
are opposed to the repeal of any law now
in existence upon that subject"
A party that is the "party of Patriotism,
decency, morality &c" would not, among
intelligent men, need to solemnly announce
that there mere such, A discriminating
people, might, if there were any truth or
justice in the claim, be able to discover the
fact. Perhaps however this is recent dis.
covery, which the modes! radicals are pro-
claiming to the world. They should have
published it, by some other mouth piece,
than a man who is so VIGOROUSLY vulgar
and indecent in his every day talk as to be
forbidden the store-rooms of party friends,
in which to vent his low vulgarisms.
We have heard that the puritan progen-
ltors of these patriotic and decent" radi-
Gals once got together and with like una
minity resolved,
1st That the world, and everything there
in belonged to the saints.
I'd. That they were the saints.
No discreet man, indeed no person but
the veriest fool, would stop to argue the
question with such logical set of self-styl-
ed saints and decent--cusses

IMPORTANT DIscovERY.-Some fellow
writing to the New York Times, says that
after hauing conversation NTH Gen. Grant
he thinks that Gen. is loyal. Just think
of the impertinence of man doubling the
loyalty of Grant, the general in chief. 1t
is because Grant is the Secretary of war to
President johnson, that Radicals doubt
bis loyalty and would destroy him. Ac-
cording to the Radicals nobody is loyal
except themSelye.--Er.
