Q Inc SPECIAL correspondent Of the Balti.
At the serenades here last NIGHT to Con.
gressmen, Mr. Cofax said that CONGRESS-
had desired to avoid midsummer ses.
sion. but that the President HAVING We.
toed his vetoes by the PRONUNCIATION of o
decision of his ney-General, that
under the reconstruction laws the militia
ry commanders were merely policemen,
subordinate to the provisional govern
ments, the army was but a posse conttd-:.
tus to enforce the DEGREES of the rebel
governors and mayors in the South, the
people again appealed to Congress, and
hence the recent legislation. He=thought
that throughout Congress had struck the
golden mean, and that its legislation was
firm, prudent and wise. He could not but.
admire the last bold and defiant veto mes
sage of the President, but he thought Mr..
johnson arraigned himself in it more than
he did Congress, for all agree that he;
spoke correctly in his North Carolina
proclamation of May, 1865, whenhe declar.
ed that all the civil governments of the
South had been destroyed by the rebel
lion. aThe President" y he said, aappeals;
to the ballot-box, and sosdo we, and by
it's decision are willing to stand or fall.D
In conclusion, he spoke very confidently
of victory before the people in 1868, and
declared that it twould be swelled by the.
vote of the reconstructed South. Sena-.
tor Yates said that the South having sac-
cepted the situation, the Republican par
ty had now to accept the situation, which,
he said, was that no rebel shall occupy q
place i'm the administration Of our nation
al affairs. The speaker did not hesitate
to say that q greater rebel than Jet. Da-
Wis or Beauregard is to-day sheltered IN
the walls Of the White House. Being a
Senator, he could not say the President
ought to be impeached, but would say
that there was sufficient evidence in pos
session of the House Judiciary Commit
tee to Justify impeachment.
The Republican party must accept the
situation in another respect. There has
been war in Mexico. Macmillan has
been executed, and the Democratic party,
is expressing its disapprobation Of the,
act The Republicans should stand by
Juarez and the Liberal Government. It
is the duty Of our Government to declare
that no foreign prince or potentate shall
establish government on American soil.
If necessary, let war be declared against.
any country that attempts to supplant.
liberty in America.
The Republican party has declared that
equal suffrage shall exist in the District OF
Columbia and the Southern States. Now
they must do for the North as they have
done for the South, and impose suffrage.
upon every State.

SECRET OF HApprNRss.-An Italian

difficulties without repining, and been
much opposed without manifasting in,pa-
tience, being asked by friend to commu-

happy, replied: "It consists in a single
thing, and that is, making right use of
my eyes" His friend in surprise, begged
him to explain the meaning. ~Most viii

WASHINGTON, D. C.,iJuly I9,- 1867.

Cur THIS OUT.-The Mercantile Tran.
script gives the following seasonable rules
for young men commencing business:
The world estimatessmen by their sue
cess in life-and by general consent, sue
cess is evidence of superiority.
Never under any circumstances, assume
responsibility you can avoid consistently
with your duty to yourself.
Base all your actions upon principle OF
right; preserve your integrity of charac-
ter, and in doing this, never reckon the
cost.
Remember that self-interest is more
likely,to warp your judgment than all cir- n
cumstances combined; therefore, look TO
your duty wher your interest is con-
cerned.
Never make money at the expense OF
your reputation. ;, :,
two avoid the latter. A mean man is uni
yersally despised, but public favor is q
stennino stone to Observation-Disclosures
generous feelings should be cultivated;
Say but little--think much-and do
L Let your expense be such as to leave a
balance in your pocket. Ready money is
q friend in need.
Keep clear of the law, for even if you
gain your case, you are generally a loser
Avoid borrowing and lending.
Wine drinking and segar smoking are
bad habits. They impair the mind and
pocket, and lead to a waste Of time.

SOUTHERN GENERALs.-We take the
following from the New York Times ::
We feel impelled to say a word in behalf
of the military skill, the valor and ability
of certain of the rebel generals whom the
Southern papers are now denouncing for
incompetence and imbecility in the field.
Since Jeff. Thompson, Chalmers, Hind
man and especially Longstreet, have come
out in favor of reconstruction under the
military bill, we find that their services to
the rebellion are spoken. of with utter con-;
tempt, and Longstreet is said to have.
proved himself 'failure" anda "nobody"
throughout the entire war. Now, we are
quite certain that Longstreet, at least,
was not rated in this way by any Of our
Generals or by our soldiers who fought
him. It was conceded by them all that,
with the exception of Stonewall Jackson,
lee had no subordinate, and the Confed-
eracy no 1pholder, who rendered more of
fcient and signal military service than
Lonestreet. We need not recall the long.
list Of terrible battles in which he and his,
corps figured, nor the hundred times In
which he put to test the genius of our;
greatest commanders. We are sure that
neither Grant, Hancock, Sheridan nor
Warren would speak of Longstreet: as "a
soldier in any such way as he lis now.
spoken of by his unreconstructed fellow
citizens of the South. But in daring to
exercise his own Judgment upon politics,
he could expect nothing better than he is
receiving at the hands Of the Southern
"bomb-proofs.

added warm to the melted sugar, will
make a honey more palatable than the

GEN. HANCOCK.

THE President has sent the following
message to Congress:
Gcnffemea Of tie Senate am Of N,
House Of Representatives:
An official copy of the order issued
by Mnjor-Gen. Winfield $. Hancock
Commander of the Fifth Military Dis
trict, dated Headquarters in New Or.
leans, on the 10Th day of November,
has reached me through the regular
channels Of the War Department, and
l herewith communicate it to Congress
for such action as may seem to be prop-
er in view Of all the circumstances. 1t
will be perceived that Gen. Hancock
announces that he will make the law
the rule of his conduct that he will
uphold the courts and other civil au-
thoiiticS in the performance of their
proper duties, and that he will use his
military power only to preserve the
peace and enforce the law. lie declares
very implicitly that the sacred right of
the trial by jury and the privilege of
the writ of hu5eos corpus shall not be
crushed out nor trOdden under foot. He
goes further, and in ono comprehensive
sentence asserts that the principles of
American liberty are still the inheri-
tance Of this people, and ever should
be. When great soldier, with unre-
strictcd power in his hands to oppress
his fcllow-mcn, voluntarily foregoes the
chance Of gratifying his selfish ambi-
tion, and devotes himself to the duty
ofbuilding up the liberties and strength
ening the laws of his country, he pre-
sents an example of the highest public
virtue that human nature is capable of
practicing. The strongest claim of
Washington to be "frst in war, first in
peace, and first in the hearts of his
countrymcn," is founded on the great
fact that in all his illustrious career he
scrupuously abstained from violating
the legl and constitutional rights of
his felIow-citizens. When he surren-
dered his commission to Congress, the
President of that body spoke his high
est praise in saying that he had Galway.
regarded the rights of tho civil authori-
ties through all dangers and disasters" :"
Wherever power above the law courted
his acceptance, he calmly put tempta-
ton aside. BY such magnanimous acts
of forbearance he won the universal
admiration of mankind, and left n
name which has no rival in the history
of the world. | am far from saving
that Gen. Hancock is the only officer of
the American army who is influenced
by the example of Washington. Doubt
less thousands of them are faithfully
devoted to the principles for which the
men of the Revolution laid down their
lives. But the distinguished houor be.
longs TO him Of being the first officer in
high command south of the Potomac
since the close OF the civil war who ha.
! given utterancc to these noble senti
mcnts in the form of Il military order
| respectfully suggest to Congress tha
some public recognition of Gen. Han
cocks patriotic conduct is due, if no
/ to him, to The friends of law and Jus
ticc throughout the country. OF sucl
an act 4, his III such time it is but fit
ting that the dignity should be vindica
ted, and thc virtue proclaimed, so tina
its value as an example may not b.
lost to the nation.

THE POWER OF IMAGINATION.-B Billy
Smith is carriage-maker in the shop
of Pulford & Co., in our village. Billy
is q genius, as the gorgeous red and yell
low stripes on Pulford's wagons show,
ard while counterfeiting nature one
day, for his own amusement, in the
rear of the shop, his mind happened to
run on the subject of rotten eggs, and
forthwith one of those interesting sub
! iects appeared on the board beneath his
magical brush. II was represented as
broken, and was so natural that an OBJ
server might fancy that it caused dis
agreeable odor. The picture remained
| there for some time, all who had occas-
| lon to go that way, not caring to dis
turb thing so forbiddng to the deli
cate senses of the mas protuberancc.
One day Squire AT---saw itand applied
| his fingers to his nOs2. Billy saw him
and explained to him that Il was but
| paint. At first he would hardly believe
but finally convinced he offered Billy
ten dollars to paint a similar one on his
door step. The Squire was something
of wag, and wished TO see the eject
produced on the ladies and gentlemen
who had been invited to party at his
house that evening.
Billy received ten dollars, and prom
ioed to have the painting ready in time.
Evening arrived, and so did the In
dies and gentlemen; AID as each in
succession passed over Billy's painting
they elevated their feet and skirts and
applying their perfumed handkerchief
to their noses, wondered if the Squire
was aware ofthe presence OF that fright
fu) thing on his step.
The party progressed, and the rotten
| egg was the subject of much remark.
squire NJ, heard and felt jolly over the
uc 'ess Of his little practical joke. When
everybody was chatting at the table af-
ter supper, and not few Of them about
the "apparition" at the door the Squire
arose, and uttering preliminary
"hem ~ said;
:" suppose you all saw that ON my
door step, didn't you?"
Everybody assented, some of the fe-
males uttered little scream, and all of
that sex famed themselves vigorously.
The Squire resumed:
~ had that placed there to illustrate
the power Of imagination, as III show
you if you'll adjourn to the door"
All weIt,
"Now," said tho squire, taking out
his snowy pocket handkerchief, you
twill see that this is not what you sup
posed it was, but merely painting"
And he pressed the handkerchief on
the "illustrated'spot, then raising it sud
denly to his nose, "By Jupiter ~ he
exclaimed, "it's rotten egg, after ally"
Billy had taken the ten dollars and
broken bona ide rottes egg on the
doorstep.
