Tho Wnr Not Over. :


We do not know who wrote the following article
in the Richmond Dispatch, Of the 29th, from which
we copy it, but from certain ''ear marks" wo
should guess OF Mr. JOHN MlrcHEL's trcnchant
pen:
We begin to believe in this favorite principle Of
MIR. Stevens and his party. A gallant engagement
has just, taken place in Texas, whcro Gen. Griffin
which is, fer aught we know his first feat Of srs.
He has heroically repulscd fro II church door tho
corpse Of General Albert Sidney Johnston. Ii WAS
an opportunity for Gen. Griffin; he had never. had
alive; nor anybody olse that we know OF; but here
was q great moment approaching; and tho war
still raging, and he (Grifinl commanding general
of the post and determined to hold it to tho last
extremity. The enemy advanced, and Griffin felt
that he had him just where he wantod him--viz:
in his coffin; and that he (Grifin) held the key OF
the position.
# Griffin had at any time in the course Of Ills
life encountered General Johnston at tho head OF
Texas, the spectre Of the hero would havo risen up
before him, and he might not have been able to
hold the church door. As it was, no had to deal,
not even with Confederate 9 ghost, but with q SAD
train of mourners following to his grave all that
was mortal Of noble Southern chieftain. He felt
that he could not only victorlousy repuso the
CORPSE, but also triumphantly insult the mourn
ers. And he did it-alone.he did it. He "cAuscd
the body to be laid in the open air, wherc it re.
NAMED all day, and was visited by thousands"
He thought he was showing his disrcspect for the
Dead but he WIS., on the contrary, by his very out
rage, enshrining him still more than ever in tho
hearts Of thoee thousands, and of hundreds OF
thousands more, who will road tho tale with hot
eyes. That piece Of bare ground in Galveston be-
came, on the moment shrine, u catafalque, q
tabernacle, and will one day bear q column or a
statue, when no human being will know the name
of Griffin save rs the name Of tho person who in
suited the ashes of hero. However, it is Grihn's
day now-eyery griffin las his day.. Blu. nobody
We apprehcnd, will greatly admire his achieve,
ment; For albeit living dog is better than dead
lion; yet, if it lifts up it's Leg at the noble beasts
carcase /" no ono admires the dog.

Sl1uAT1oN.-The Washington correspondent Of
the Boston Post sends the following to that
journal:
Hon. John Covode called upon Secretary STAN
ton yesterday, and there ensued long and friend
ly discourse on the status o tho country. Mr.
Stanton appeared very iesirous of discussing the
current events of national import, and expressed
himself freely. Ho confessed that roni the very
outset the disputaions Of the Executive aud Leg
islative branches Of the Government had caused
him the iveliest alarm, which, since tho move.
ment toward impeachment, had increased to On ap-
prehension OF revolution and anarchy. The bur-
den Of his remarks was in regard to certain acts
of the President and Congress-, and he pointed
gloomily to the dcleterious effects Of each upon
the nation. In parting with Covode. MIR. Stanton
remarked; 81 aided to place two millions of men
in the field to put down the rebellion; three hun
dred Thousand fave bitten the dust, and an equal
number are cripples throughout the land and yet,
with all this tremendous effort and corresponding
sacrifice, the country, in myjudgment, is shadowed
with gloom of darker hour than was incident to
any crisis of the late war. This latter expression
of Mr. Stanton's soicitude is given me with
scrupulous exactitude by gentleman lninutely ac-
quainted with evory circumstance in the premises,
and who further avors that the Secretary seemed
completely unnamed when he uttered the last
remark, and abruptly turned from his visitors to
conceal his emotion.

A WASHINGTON paper publishes tho following
The tnmner of Washinntnn society MAs illustrat

The temper of Washington society was illustrat-
ed at the Fourth Presbyterian Church last Sunday
evening, the occasion being q Sunday School mcet-
ing. The pastor of the church was absent, I'd
ministering communion ut one Of the negro
churches of the city the exercises of tho evening
being conducted by d brother Clergyman. Dhring
tho meeting, Representative Mckee, of Kensucky,
was called upon to speak to the children. He conf
piled with the request. In tho course OF his re,
marks he alluded to the pastor of the church, and
the service he was at that time performing for tho
colored people, and said to the children that ne
hoped they would be as ready as their pastor to
help the negroes at oil times, and do what thoy
could to aid q neighboring coored school. These
remarks were so distasteful to the audience pres-
ent that Colonel Mckee was coughcd down, and
not allowed to proceed.

The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1867-01-31

The Southern crops Of cereals, during the past
year have fallen below the wants Of that section,
and breadstrfs have consequently ruled high; it
more attention will be given to grain culture and
less to cotton-growing; and the more as those
crops are less subject to suffer from tho risks of
the seasons and the irregularity connected with
The conclusion indicated by q survey OF all these
considerations appears to favor very decidedly the
prevailing firmncss of the cotton market.
