"dark- lantern political organization"

In regard to the charge of its being

R An intelligent London cores

LIZ An intelligent London cores
pondent of the New York Herald
writing on the 9th of March says:
81 am inclined to think if we get
things settled in America, and ar
range our differences with England
before the end of this year, that the
next European mania for speculation
may turn toward the United States,
very likely to the purchase of South
ern lands and grand plans of emf
grafton. In another year something
must be done with the vast accumu.
lation Of money now lying idle here
and on the Continent. The United
States is in high favor. If we have
no serious mishap this will increase.
The lavish expenditure of Americans
in Paris and elsewhere, backed as it
is in most cases by unquestioned and
rapidly acquired wealth. is making
serious impression upon Europeans"
When we also remember that with
in few months our twenty
bonds have advanced five per cent.
in the European market, we shall at
once see that the world has more
faith in our financial prosperity than
Democratic croakers at home, who
are constantly predicting our ruin
and disgrace. The truth is, that
with them the wisheis father to the
thought. 1Q gfsv 6seT

turned their backs and snickered oat
in undisguised contempt, and large
number of the chivalry looked as if
they had swallowed a snuff box which
was about to act as a cathartic and
emetic together. The colored audi
tors gazed at the speaker with un
concealed disgust and indignation.
1t was too evident that they put no
confidence in him, and he labored
under painful embarrassment. He
was alone in his glory, and the few
faint symptoms of appreciation given
him came entirely from men who
would have rejoiced to see the army
of the Union annihilated, the South
ern Confederacy established, and the
black mans chains riveted on himself
and upon his wife and children for
ever. Not eolored man cheered or
clapped his hands in token of appro-
val, for the hearts of them turned
gratefully to the memory of Abraham
Lincoln, the great head of the Re-
publican party, for whose overthrow
the present meeting was intended"

George w. Randolph. grandson
of jefferson, died in Richmond a few
DAYS ago. He was Secretary of War
of the Confederate States in 1862.
Isaac Strallham, Treasurer of Sa-
lem Township, Shelby County o.,
was attacked near his home, a few
nights ago, by three ruffians. knock
ed down, and by threats of murder,
compelled to inform the party where
some $500 in money, of which he
was known to have possession, could
be found. Two of the robbers held
him, and the third went to his house
and obtained the money. An alarm
was soon given, but not until too late
to secure the capture of the party.
The following sketch of Senator
Salisbury is from lady correspon-
dent at Washington: A portly, hand
some man, with, curling black hair,
dark eyes and. handsome features
A man endowed by nature with gee
erous impulses and kind heart, yet
a man preiudiced, passionate and un-
governed; who loves caste and hates
equality. l have seen two pictures
of him, never to be forgotten. One,
near the close of last summers ses-
sien, when clothed in. handsome
broad cloth, in his right mind, with
q prayer book in his hand, met him
with Mrs. jeff. Davis fwho was cloth
ed like an empress, going TO church.

saddest of'all sights, an intoxicated
man, tobacco-juice streaming from
his mouth, he importuning q black
man for more.

National Finances.

The monthly exhibits puollshed
nv the Secretary of the Treasury,
show material and encouraging de-
crease of the public debt, as high as
fifteen millions in q single month.
On the other hand the receipts from
customs and Internal Revenue con-
tinue large, and fully meet the ex-
pectatiens of the officers of the Gov
ernment. The receipts from the
former source, during the month OF
March, amounted to sixteen millions
as against eleven millions from the
same period last year. 1t is true
taxation is heavy, yet the people
meet their taxes promptly and ap-
parently enjoy as great prosperity as
ever. That financial ruin and dis
grace, so often and so confidently
predicted by the Democratic press,
has net yet come upon us, and as far
distant as eyer. Throughout the
war, our Copperheads and peace men
never ceased to clamer that we were
creating debt which we could never
pay and which could only result in
reputation and national disgrace.
Yet within less than two years from
the close of the war, the public debt
has been largely decreased, the in
terest promptly met and paid, yet no
financial crisis has yet come upon us,
and to all appearances the country
financially is as sound and safe as
ever. As theseD emecrstic predictions
have hitherto proved false, SO will
they in the future. The country is
now bearing its heaviest burden.
AS the wealth and population Of the
country increases, and as the debt
decreases, the ratio of taxation will
rapidly decrease until the people will
cease to recognize the burden.

The Russian Treaty.

A Washington dispatch. dated April
eth, says; .-..l ..
The Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations held meeting this morning,
and decided to report the Russian trea-
ty to the Senate fora its immediate ac-
ton The Committee, after an elabo-
rate and vigorous investigation of the
matter, came to the conclusion that the
treaty ought to be ratified. According
ly, as soon as the Senate met and went
into executive session, the treaty was
reported, and sustained in a speech of
considerable length by Mr. Summer, as
chairman of the committee. The de-
bate was continued throughout most of
the session Of Che Senate, and the indi-
cations were decidedly in favor of its
ratification. A great change seems to
have taken place in short time among
Senators on the question of ratifying
the treaty. The Senate meets an hour
earlier tomorrow to continue the dis
cussion.

@ Governor Patterson, of Ala
bama, has written letter to Hon. AL
bert VOORHEES,, Lieutenant Governor OF
Louisiana, in which he makes the fol
lowing sensible reflections
''It seems to me that it is the true
feeling of the Southern people to con-
tribute their best influence in favor of
an early organization of their respect
i've States, in accordance with the re-
quirements of the recent Reconstruct
ton Act Congress claims the right to
control this whole question. In my
humble Judgment it is unwise to con-
tend longer against its power, or to
struggle further against its repeatedly
expressed will. g.r am
Il am clearly of the opinion that an
appeal to the courts would accomplish
no good If a test case were brought
before the Judiciary, it would open up
series of the most complicated ques-
tions which perhaps ever engaged the
attention of any tribunal. Questions of
such vast magnitude could not speedily
be disposed of. They would necessa-
rily require much time; and before a
conclusion could be reached the South
ern States, in all probability, would be
fully reorganized under the Congress
sional plan. Indeed, the supplemental
bill provides specifically for reorgan-
ization; and the only practical question
is, who will participate in the work. If
the many do not cooperate in the
movement and give it proper shape,
the few will carry it to completion" !"

of building the Covington and Ohio

H A singular political campaign

H A singular political campaign
is in progress in Tennessee. The
late Legislature conferred the right
to vote on the negroes, and both the
Radicals and Conservatives, (they
are ashamed of the word democrat
down in that locality,) are after the
negro vote. The main question is,
which party has been most friendly
towards the blacks. Both parties
claim superiority In this respect, and
it is doubtful, as yet, which will sue
ceed in getting the most of this class
of voters. The negro with the bal
lot, in the estimation of even demo-
Gratis, is entirely a different person
from the negro without the ballot.

which time he was detailed from his Regiment
tthe s6th o. VIZ and stationed at this point as
Ordnance officer, which position he held until
the busineS was closed, and he. with his Regi-
ment mustered out of service. We pronounce no
divided opinion among those who became ac-
quainted with him during his residence among
us that for prompt attention and strict fidelity to
his public trust, he had no superior in the army,
or out of it -. -.
Forhis manly virtues he was universally es-
teemed by our citizens, while living, and leaves
