How TO Paw tho National Debt.

The Detroit Free Press recommend,
the following as the best way to pay the
national debt and bring about restoration
and peace to the whole country:
Put the thieves out Of office and put
honest men in. Retrench the expendi-
lures of the Government to one hundred
millions. Cut the Freedmen's Bureau
swindle from the Treasury and thus
save millions to the people. If the
negroes are fit to vote, they are compe-
tent to sustain themselves. Take the
military forces from the South, aud
muster them out OF service, aud leave
the people there to reconstruct" them.
selves, as they were doing before Con
gress interfered and put them further
from the Union than ever before. Cut
off the myriads of PARISHES now hanging
upon the Treasury. Retrench eXpendi.
lures until the income largely exceeds
the outgo. Apply the surplus TO the
payment of the national debt, and the
whole "question will be answered.

Oyster dredgers hate the mussel aud

accusation more fancied than real We
do not say the mussel is entirely guilt

native is now and then killed by mussels
Il happens in this way;
The oyster, feeding and faitening in
indolent enjoyment, offers 10 the baby
mussels drifting about, mere waits in the
sea, a tempting resting place, and so
they make fast their boards and settle
down for life. The oyster, unconscious

Georgia Politics.

The public mind was lately startled by
the announcement that the registration

only about 1900 white voters in the
State--the report being Whites, $1,000 ;
blacks, 93,4l7. 1t will be still more sur
prised by the fact that, according to
General Pope's apportionment, the
$1,000 whites have majorities in districts

George Washington as a Usurper.

The Radicals, our readers know, de
nounce President johnson as a usurper
because, without the authorization o
Congress, he has issued a proclamation
of amnesty to persons guilty of rebellion
The answer to this denunciation is that
the President has a constitutional right
to issue proclamation, whilst Congress
has no constitutional right either to au.
thorize or forbid it. This is established
by various proofs, the chief of which we
have repeatedly given; but one of them
we will now repeat with greater distinct.
ness. We refer to the fact that Wash
ington did what johnson has done

gress, issued proclamation of amnesty,
which concluded as follows:

proper to extend the said pardon to all
persons guilty of the said treasons, mis-
PRISONS Of treason, or otherwise con
cerned in the late insurrection within

other offense against the United States
Therefore, be it known that /,

United States, have granted, and by
these presents 90 grant, a full, free, and
entire pardon to all persons, excepting
as is hereinafter excepted, of all treasous,
misprisons of treasons, and other indict-
able offenses against the United States,
committed within the fourth survey of
Pennsylvania before the 22d day of
August last past, excepting and exclud-
ing therefrom, nevertheless, every person
who refused or neglected to give and
