The following hrs sne speculations Of q
washington letter written under date Of
22d. ult;
The Chase project of universal suffrage.
coupled with universal amnesty, is. as YOU
know, dead enough. The majority of Con-
gress are anxious the Southern States
should adopt the proposed amendments,
and urge, Il this was done, the bridge would
have been crossed For this you are aware
there is no chance. What then2 The terri
tQrial remittance will prevail. Two prop
ositlons are pending, the North Carolina
plan introduced in the House by Mr.. Stevens.
OF Pennsylv and the Julian plan, said to
be the project-of the popular party. Should
either of the measures last named pass both
houses, the President will exercise his veto.
The edict will be made operative over the
veto. The two-thirds is fixed fact in both
houses. My opinion is, that should the Thad
Stevens bill become the law, that the Presi.
dent acill exercise It. He will be induced to do
this partly because he has no wish to con-
tlnue fight damaging to him, and partly
on account of the Southern support which
it will receive. You observe / 90 upon the
idea that should the bill pass, it will be
made general. The more moderate Radicals
are favorable to the Holden-Stevens bill. The
extreme men urge their determination to
pass the Julian bill. Should they carry
their plan, what then? Anarchy in the South2
An army will be necessary to it's enforcement.
1t will he promptly supplied. don't think
the President could be induced to take part
in enforcing the Julian bill. I think case
would be made up at his instance and sub
mitted to the Supreme Court. Should this
tribunal affirm the action of Congress, ander
I'll tic Consultation the President would enforce
it. A reign of terror would now set in, and
Radicalisnl would eliminate. Then / take
the territorial bill as.one of the readings of
the political horoscope. In what form it
will pass is hard to say; but if called to
guess, would say, between the Radical form
of the Julians and the diluted one of Holden
Stevens.

WHAT CONGRESS WILL Do.-The
New York Times alludes to the tone
and temper of Congress, and expresses
the opinion that when it meets again,
the business of legislation will be
carried on more with reference, to the
interests of the country. 1t says:
On the other question of national
scope-that of Southern reconstruc-
tion--Congress has acted more dis,
creetly than was anticipated. There
is no hope of the violent schemes Of
confscation, disfranchisement and
degradation. The amendment is still
held out to the South; and even if it
be finally rejected we have reason TO
look for other plans that will deal
-EairIy with our Southern fellow
cltlzenszas a part of the American
people. -.
Congress will have but eight, weeks
to work in when it reassembles IN
January next. We shall look for it
pursuing and completing it's great la
bors not less creditably than they
have begun

brought us the painful intelligence of

He left the cars in apparently per-

heart disease ....
This sad announcement comes upon
us in all its suddenness with a most
depressing effect.

with her sister Georgia, where the Di-
ocesan labors Of the deceased were so
long and so signally exercised, but

"A man named Smelly played bold
confidence game at jackson, Missis-
sippi, the other day. He first entered
the mail car on the Mississippi Cen
trail Railroad, represented himself as a
special agent of the Post-ofice De-
partment, gave the route agent orders,
assumed control, and ON arriving at
Jackson entered the post office and
obtained statement from the post
master as to how the mail was con-
veyed} from, Jackson to Nashville,
Cairo and Memphis, which was re-
duced to writing and sent to Washing

received and delivered letters, and
completely subjugated the postmaster.
Extending his operations he pur-
chased the Madison Hotel of Mr..
Garland and borrowed money from
him on checks which, proving bogus,
he was arrested, but escaped from the
officers Several money letters
handled by Smedly have failed to
reach their destination. Drawings of
past office buildings in several other
places were easiJ IN his carpet sack.

The Legislators of Georgia has re-
pealed all laws denying foreigners the
privilege of owning real estate.
There is no such law in Mississippi;
but there is law prohibiting foreign
ers from conveying real estate until
after they have been naturalized, and
aiso pfoEiains thu, unless So natural
ized, their lands and tenements shall
not descend to their heirs upon de-
cease, but shall be sold and the money
paid into the State Treasury. In our
Judgment, this statute should at once
be repealed. 1t is behind the spirit of
the age. We should not only remove
all obstacles to the investment of cap
ital In our uncultivated lands, but we
should offer every reasonable induce
ment to that end.

: The Norfolk Day Book gives the
following excellent advice to our
planting friends. By way of self-pro-
lection, they should do two things:
1. Let them diversity their produc-
tons let them blend farming with
planting. In the place of the unwise
system which has heretofore obtained
of planting all their available land in
cotton, let them sow an ample breadth
in corn. In place of buying their
meat, and bread and butter, and cheese,
and stock from abroad-from the
North and West-let them raise all
these. They will not be so rich, per-
baps, as by the one crop system, but
the elements ofasubstantial wealth will
be theirs; and their comforts will be
vastly beyond those enjoyaA when all
products except cotton are unWlseaJr
disdained. = i4ye .sEE .a-
9. In order to meet the tax with it's
true remedy, let every man in reach of
water interest himself in local manu-
features. He will thus enlarge his
own profits, increase population, and
attract skilled labor to the South
When once this tide of skill
and n1oHey sets towards us brought
hither by the special attraction
of cotton, the flow will be strong
and voluminous. For the escape from
the cost of transportation and Incl
dental charges both ways, on the raw
material, and the manufactured goods,
will enable us to undersell the facto-
ries of Lowell or Lawrence: and there
will always be demand in the South
for Southern fabrics greater than the
supply. Now these are not idle spec
ulations and ingenious themeserThe
facts sustain them. In all NE cotton

The PERJURY CASE OF CpNovER.-
In the criminal court, Washington, on
Tuesday morning Judge Fisher over
ruled the demurrer in the case of San
ford Conover, indicted for perjury in
his testimony before the congressional
investigating committee, attempting
to impffcate Jenerson Davis IN the
assassination of Mr.. Lincoln. The
Judge delivered an elaborate opinion,
discussed the power of Congress to
take testimony, and compliments
Judge Holt. The prisoners counsel
has appealed, and if the Court in GEN
eral terms sustains Judge Fisher, it is
probable that the prisoner, who has
been remanded to Jail for the present,
will be brought to trial for perjury at
the next term of the criminal court.

MORE GovERNMENT.-The New York
Post, which has heretofore pretended
to regard the Constitution and laws as
binding, not only upon the private
citizen, but upon Government officials
even binding upon this revolutions
ry Congress, in a recent issue says:
Congress will not wait very long.
AS soon as it is satisfied that the
Southern States will not have the
amendment it will proceed to other
measures. It is useless to argue
against such course; the people in
the recent election have demanded and
justified it. It is of no use to show
that the whole proceedings is extra
constitutional, for the people reply

The t'DEFIANT SOUTH while
Thad. Stevens and his accomplices
at Washington-men for the most
part made wealthy by the war-are
daily coming out of prayer meet
ings'' to propose new measures for
trampling still more completely under
foot the 'defant South here is the
picture which is drawn of that section
by one of the journals most helplessly
attached to their political car.
CDR. Crawford, of Kentucky, who
has recently visited the States further
South, makes some very painful state
ments about their condition of desti-
tuition and prostration., He begs the
churches of the North to inquire into
the facts, ard come to the relief CT
their suffering brethren in the South.
In Alabama alone there are twenty
thousand widows and sixty thousand
orphans, most of whom are depend
emit. In Georgia, it is said, there are
fifty thousand persons who must re-
ceive aid. Dr. Crawford !. says that
prominent people in the South have
been withheld from proclaiming the
misery around them, 'sbecause bad
men, even some calling themselves
Christians, have already gloried in the
hope of seeing the Southern ehiyalry'
begging for bread"
/. Have we any such "Christians''
among US? If SO, how must their
noble hearts rejoice in the thought
that an odd million or so of their fell
low creatures will keep this holy
season Of Christmas now at hand in

BISHOP GREEN.-It is with feelings
of sadness and deep regret that VIC
contemplate the departure of Bishop
Green, who, with his family, leaves in
few days for his new home in Ten
nessee. The good Bishop has lived
in our midst q number of yea, and
los gRii6ssf . stF5ag hold uI55h our
affections. All who know him will feel
sensibly his absence. He has moved
among us gentle, quiet spirit of good,
exciting holy, refining influence upon
all who have come in contact with
him.
Life is, with some men, constant
struggle struggle between good and
evil-and death only ends it; while
others, having passed through scathing
ordeals, through storms and tempests,
reach calm seas, with the Celestial City
in view, peacefully waiting their sum-
mons to enter the pearly gates. One
of these last we would pronounce the
good Bishop. Upon his silvered locks
the light of another world already
shines, and his soul seems to have
donned its pure white robe. He is q
perfect gentleman an humble chris
tian; faithful monitor of the young:
a good, pure man and bears with him
the kindest wishes Of his many friends.
May the holy angels guard him, and
make smooth the pathway Of his de-
clining years.-Columbus Index.

UNEXPECTED CHURCH INCIDENT

ult. says:
On Sunday night lasts lady was ia.
ken suddenly i'll in one ofeur churches,
and was carried out by her friends,
who at once set to work bathing her
head and using other means Of resto-
ration but she told them she desired
to be taken to some quiet place. as
none of their remedies would do her
any good. Her request was forth
with complied with, and she was con-
veyed to room in the rear of the
minister's desk, where she presently
gave birth to a fine child This Incl
dent, from its novelty, gave rise to
much gossip, but it really may be con-
sidered a good omen in the early his
