Abraham Lincoln. vs.. Andrew john

Abraham Lincoln, vs.. Andrew john
SON.
The following is the conclusion of the
speech made by Thaddeus Stevens in
the House of Representatives on Tues
day last. The clerk OF the House, Mr..
Mcpherson, was obliged to read 1t, as
Mr.. Stevens was too weak and tremu-
lous to stand up and make himself
hesrd.
Speaking of Mr.. Lincoln and Presi-
dent Johnson. he said:
Here, if there were anything in COM
mon but their stations, what IA tempta-
ton to draw parallel. But 1t would
be unprohtable; especially in this de-
bate. For what we say at the
graves of admired friends, or states
men, or heroes, is not biography.
The stern pen of history will strip
such eulogies of their meretricious
ornaments. But there is no dan
ger that the highest praise that the most
devoted friends could bestow on him,
would ever be reversed by posterity. So
solid was the material OF which his
whole character was formed, that the
more it was rubbed the brighter 1t will
shine. Mr.. Lincoln also, was of hum
BILE origin, land who is not that is
formed of the coarse clay of humanity?)
and earned his living by manual labor.
But he had too good taste ever TO boast
OF the accident OF his birth, or to weary
the public ear with the Pathological re-
cital of his mental employmenIs. He
rose to the chief nagistracy of the
Great Republic by his sterling patriot
ism, sober habits, and modest worth.
He was not thrown into power by any
moral or political CONFUSION. His ele-
walton was no accident, but the result
of the cool judgment of u nation of
freemen. No man ever assumed such
vast responsibilities under such ditfi-
cult circumstances, except, perhaps,
William the Silent. How similar in
their lives-how alike in their deaths
If there was danger, and l admit
there was some apprehension, that Mr..
Lincoln would be beguiled by his chief
adviser into course which would have
furnished his well-earned fame, that
good Guardian who had guided him so
welIs kindly preserved him from that
calamity. Death is terrible Death in
high places is still more lamenIabIe;
but every day is showing that there are
things more terrible than death. It
was better that his posthumus lame
should be unSpotted than that he should
endure few more years of trouble on
earth. All must regret the manner of
his death; yet, looking to futuTIty and
10 his own personal position, II may be
considered happy. From the height of
his glory he beheld the promised land
| and was Withdrawn from our sight. In
the midst of the most exquisite enjoy
ment of his favOrite relaxation he was
simultaneously taken away without
suffering one pang of death. Like the
prophet or the Lord who knew not
death, he was wrapt from earth to
heaven along track no less luminous
than his who assembled in chariot OF
lire. Would to God that some small
portion of the mantle of our Elijah had
fallen on his Elisha.

A WRITER in the New York Egc,,ing
Post renews some articles previously
contributed to that paper upon the sub.
ject of the teeth, and why they rot. 1t
Is found that they decay only through
the agency OF acids, and these acids
have effect upon the teeth only because
they do not contain sufficient uuanti-
ties OF phosphate of lime. The writer
says in order TO supply this deficiency
OF phosphate OF lime, it must be eaten
and in order to eat il, one must eat GER
tain kinds OF food which are coming
now into general use in cities, and
which contain in themselves large
quantities OF it-such as grits, oatmeal.
Graham bread, e-fOurth of an inch of
the surface of potatoes.
The reasons, furthermore, may be
found in the following: The bone of u
tooth is composed of phosphate of lime
TO the extent Of sixty two per cent.
The enamel has in it about eightv-five
per cent OF this phosphate, aud if less
than this amount is found in propor-
ton to the whole tooth, its structure is
very easily dissolved away by the acids
which form in the mouth, from parti-
cles Of food in process of decomposi-
ton, from confectionery ana other
sweet things, which in the mouth rapid
ly acidify.
Some or the above-named articles of
food should constitute part of the
daily diet from the time of the first
evidence of Il child's existence to the
fourteenth year of the same, at which
timeth character OF the teeth may be
considered finally settled; they will be
found of good shade, hard, with an
excellent enamel covering, without
deep seams crossing each other on the
surface, ana liable to decay, but the en-
amel caps will be found perfectly form
ed-a covering to the bone, which will
save the patient an immensely OF fear.
pain and expense.

SHORTLY before the passage of the
Military Reconstruction act, the rebel
Legislature of Louisiana passed a law
providing for State Convention, and
ordering an election for delegates to
take place on the second Monday in
April. Not being satisfied with their

constructed by Union men, they design
ed creating a constitution to suit them
selves. The New Orleans Tribune

THE COniscation Bill which Mr.. Ste

gress has been published. 1t confis-
Gates all the public lands belonging to
the ten rebel States, and all the lands
and other property forfeited by the act
OF Congress OfJuly II, Is62,-nlI which
Is to be seized, condemned and sold.
Out of the proceeds each adult male
freed slave is to receive 40 acres, and
each one who is head of IA family. 40
more. Quite dhe balance; IA sum of $50
for each household is to be appropriated
10 the erection OF buildings for the use
of the late slaves: 500, OOO, 600 is to be
invested in U. s. six per cent. bonds,
and the interest added to the pensions
OF Union soldiers, and $500. OOO, 600 is to
be appropriated to pay damages done
to loyal citizens by the civil or military
government of the rebel Confederacy.
under which clause Mr.. Stevens would
be reimbursed for his property DESTROY
ed by the rebel invasion of Chambers
burg, Pennsylvania. The rernaininr-
sections of the bill prescribe the meth
DDS and machinery by which il is to be
carried into effect. This measure ia
strictly consistent with the views OF the
war held by Mr.. Stevens from the be-
ginning But few in Congress concur
with MN, however, in these views, and
fewer still would consent to inflict these
ruinous losses upon the Southern peo-
pie in addition to those they have nj

The washington Cironicfe predict,

The Washington Chronicle predicts
ihat "the electoral vote of Alabama
bill be cast for the Republican candi-
'iate for President in November, 1865,
10 matter how radical he may be him
self or how radical the platform on
which he stands" 1t ventures the
same predictions in regard to others of
the rebel States. The CArOHieEe predi-
Gates this rather surprising prophecy on
the fact that Alabama was carried out OF
the Union in defiance of large major
lty of her people, who. exhausted with
their compulsory sacrifices OF blood
and treasure, are prepared to return
10 their allegiance, under the ban
uer Of an advanced loyalty, and
who, moreover, have recently,
N the Huntsville Convention OF
March 4th, given undoubted and
emphatic expression to their sentiments
and determination So that the move
ment has been already invigorated
and that, too, not by the colored loyal
lists but by the whites. We are told
that the Huntsville Convention was
ian assemblage of men totally inter-
esied in the happiness, prosperity and
liberties Of the State. But as to this
loyal element of loyal whites, the COL
ored population, large enough of itself
10 decide the contest, will, of course.
ally itself, giving stronger assurances
OF success. a State convention
has been called to meet at Mont .
Eomery in May, which will
take measures to reconstruct the
State on the conditions presented by
Congress. 1t is to be earnestly hoped
that this movement will develop a
vital purpose and organization as time
goes on, and that it will comprehend
all the rebel States. That those States
are destined to become true and loyal
members Of the Union is beyond a
doubt. wecannot look for any decided
change in their manifested sentiments
until the bold and demonstrative rebe,
element, now at the head of affairs, i,
firmly set aside, as it soon will be.

GRANT CQRNERED AT LAST!

We have Just seen Samuel Fultz, Esq,
of Culpeper, direct from Washington
City. to whom, as an intimate friend,
General G rant has fully communicated
his views. From long conversation
with Mr.. Fultz we learn that General
Grant is fond of pea-soup, very; never
uses mustard, eats his eggs boiled hard
does not eat cheese, because it has an
effect on him, nor corn-bread, because
Off contrary effect. Heprefers Havana
cioars. admits he is exceedingly fond Of
horses. and III he has any choice as to
color, it is blood bay.
On being asked by Mr.. Fultz II he
thought the reports shout Butter
stealing spoons, &c. had any foundation
in truth, he replied:
g Well, guess if | was of the poultry
kind, and knew Ben was coming along

Scarcely one in fifty know that the
Constitution is not steamboat or steam

never fought for it, and would like to
