Mr. Stevens on Confiscation Again.

Hon. Thaddeus Stevens has written a letter
in vindication Of his proposed policy Of con-
fiscation, a proof sheet of which, from the
Gettysburg (Pennsylyanla) Star and Sentinel,
addressed 10 L. MCPHERSON, Clerk of the
House OF Repre- sehtatives, its editor, has been
received in Washington, as follows:
LANCASTER, PA, May 2O, 1s67.-Dear Sir:

ical adviser not to suffer yself to become

They lay in ashes one thriving village of G. 600
people, and turned the Inhabitants houseless

No provision has ever been made or is max
ing, to reimburse the plundered citizens. BY
the law OF nations, Government makes no
compensation for damages done by an inyad.
lTg army, unless such Government is yicto-
rious, when 1t always provides by treaty for
the payment by the vanquished enemy.
Government which neglects to make such
provision on behalf OF its plundered citizens
Is basely negligent Of it's duty.
A qadSS peace exists between the late beIIig-
erents, he terms of which are dictated BY
Congress, which is under the control of the
Republican party. Nothing but the proceeds
OF the confiscarion Of a small portion Of the
property OF wealthy rebels can be applied to
unless it be paid out of the Treasury of the
United States. A few Republican meteors,
always erratic in their course are fitting
through and exploding in the republican at
mospEere. They attract suffi icient attention to
enable them to assure the amia BILE rebels who
lnf1ieted this injury that they need fear no
confiscation-that no body OF any note in the
North is in favor Of imposing such punish
nent for the sake of remuneration or Justice
They assure them that nothing shall be taken
from Aiken's estate of millions-from Hamp-
ION, Davis, Orr, Faulkner, or from a thousand
others, who are still worth their hundreds of
thousands, to reimburse the loyal men North
and South who were plundered OF their es.
tates, and to aid your poor neighbors TO re-
build their humble tenements.
1t Is scarcely to be endured that Congress
for two sessions should sit Indifferent TO these
sufterings. and take no steps to enforce these
rights.
These remarks apply to q large portion of
Maryland, OF West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana
and Missouri, as we'll as to the slave States
He who can patiently listen to that putrld hu-
manity which we now see prOpagated has
more command of himself than have In

burden Of our taxation to defray the expenses
of transportation and the ovation of trlum-
phant traitors. But l must stop, or ! shall
commit the fault against which l have been
warned. With great respect, your obedient

stated that all present agreed that cholera ls

clared that cholera only exists under certain
conditions of soil and water supply. Among
the English representatives present was Sir

cholera IN the East of London, and he attrib.
uted the ravages Of the disease to the water
supply being exceptionally bad. The confer.
eace terminated by the passing of resolutions
recommending, rs the most effective means of
preventing the spread of cholera cleanliness
ano good supply Of pure water. Considering
that the world has now had more than thirty,
five years experience Of this terrible disease.
the remedies thus suggested have little in the

across the Atlantic and around the Horn, and
in action upon the Baltic and upon the South
American rivers. According to Captain Coles
they have Invariably acquitted themselves
well. Yet he complains-although they are
cheaper in first cost, throw heavier weight
OF metal in proportion to tonnage, need fewer
men, shelter what men they have better,
afford steader gun platform, and are every
way superior to other IRON clads-that the
English Government does not own q turret

Look at the flower of a molning-glory the
evening before the dawn which is to see il
unfold. The delicate petals are twisted into
spiral, which at the appointed hour, when
the sunlight touches the hidden springs of
its life will uncoil itself and let the day int
the chamber of its virgin heart. But the
spiral must unwind by its own law, and the
hand that shall try to hasten the process will
only spoil the blossom which would have ex-
banded in symmetrical beauty under the rosy
fingers OF morning. St

The Pail Mall Gazette offers some sugges-
tive remarks on the present condition of relig-
ious sentiment in England, in the following
which it declares is Every far from being a sar-
"castic account Of the reasons why the gem
ftIy go to church ON a Sunday and in which.
twill be seen, almost every influence except a
devout spirit is recognized h. aa
The really interesting thing would be to
know, not why worlSingmen do not 90 to
church, but why SO many gentlemen do 90
there. Ii you could walk into one OF the
churches In Tyburnia some Sunday morning,
and impound all or any considerable part OF
the Awelldressed males between thirty and
sixty to be found there, and extract from
them, by home questions which must be SUP
posed to be honestly answered, their real rea-
sons for coming TO church, some very curious
results would probably be obtained. A large
proportion would no doubt answer that they
came simply from the force Ofhabit-not few
would be obliged to admit that they did it TO
please their wives. This would be considera-
bly, qualified in others by an impression that
~ was necessary part of the education OF
their children, and almost every one would be
more or less Influenced by the consideration
OF the general responsibility of the institution
ana tue propriety OF supporting it on the
ground OF It's responsibility and social utility.
so strong is this motive that squires who,
when they are In London, never by any
accident see the inside OF a church, will CON
stantly go in the most regular manner, at
least to morning service, in the country, by
way, as they say, OF setting an example. 1t
may not be good or required for themselves,
but they have an impression that it Is good
for their interiors. 1t must also be observed
that to abstain altogether from going to
church would be rather a marked anu singu-
lar thing in gentleman, and there is nothing
on which people so much hate to be singular
as matters OF that kind. 1t would be unjust
to represent these motives as the only ones
which take the gentry of London and otheI
great cities to church, though we have no
doubt that if they were all to cease to operate
at once congregations would be strangely thin
ned. Most men probably have sufficient
degree of true religious feeling to like 10 join
periodically in some form of religious worship
and the strength OF the Church OF England,
regarded as a religious body, no doubt lies in
the fact that its liturgy is singularly well suit
ed as whole to the tastes OF educated men.
