RECONSTRUCTION SETTLED.

The President sent in his veto Of the
Military Reconstruction Bill on Satur-
day last, and fifty-fve minutes were
occupied in reading it. The House i'm
mediately proceeded to pass the bill over
the veto, by vote of: lS5 to II; only
one Republican voting nay; and the
Senate did the game Saturday night, by
vote of SO to 10, even Revcrdy John

A NOBLE CONGRESS-.

Tho Thirty Ninth Congress expired
on Monday noon, March 4th, and the
Fortieth Congress then commenced its
sitting. We have noticed some Of our
neighbors carping at the dilatorincss OF
the Congress just expired, and finding
all manner of fault with it rs not doing
its duty i'm the way Of reconstruction
and other matters. But for ourselves,
we have all along admired the spirit
and zeal Of the 39th Congress, as well
We must not confound the extreme
notions of few on the one hand, or
the obstinate holding back of q few on
the other hand, with the earnest yet
moderate procedures of the actual body
itself, the grand two-thrds enacting
agency at Washington. What has it
consummated of iioticeablefolly? What
has it failed to enact of real prime i'm
porsancc to the country just at this
point? ...
Has not the great Reconstruction
question been wisely disposed Of? and
that too by those careful and gradual
approaches, so valuable in the emanci.
patton policy of LINCOLN, 80 needful to
the full success OF our cause! There
has been no step backward, and no
taking back of anything done; but
nobly aud consistently has our policy
gone on to it's triumph. First the Re-
construction Amendment, and row the
Re construction Offer in enforcement Of
1t.
Then also, the Tenure Of Office has
been handsomely fixed, beyond the
petulent passion Of the paltry A. J.
Impartial suffrage has been established
in the District of Columbia, in every
Territory, and throughout all tho Ma
tional domain. Nebraska has been adj
mitted On this new and lofty basis.
And many, many forward sNps have
been taken in the career Of Freedom
upon which we as nation have enter
ed. And all this by the Congress OF
the past two years, the Congress next
succeeding the war, in the very face
and eyes OF Andrew johnson and nii
his opposing policy. Let us hear no
more, therefore, in complaint OF Con-
gress as an ail-talking, Go-nothing
body. Homer TO whom honor is due.

Sorghum Vinegar.

never succeeded in making vine,
gar from juice without boiling
but if it be boiled away one third
or one-half, it will make good vim
egar. We have made Sorghum
vinegar for number of years,
and we make the best from the
white skimmings and washings of
the finishing pan. AS soon as
the juice begins to thicken up in
boiling, or when it gets to be very
thin syrup, whitish scum rises
if saved and diluted with
rain-water, will make a NAM
Der one vinegar. Vinegar can be
made from good sorghum syrup,
Zone gallon of syrup to two of
rain-water,) but it will not work
as quick, and is no better than
that made from skimmings. The
reason of this, l suppose, is, that
the skimmings contains something
that acts as a ferment. Keep the
Skimmings until the following
spring, add about as much water
as you have skimmings; be sure
and leave it sweet enough, for
the sweeter it is the better the
vinegar will be; then if it is too
sweet to work well, add more
water; put it in vinegar or whis-
KY casks and set in a sunny place
to work.
