THE DELEGATION OF GONE" So
CALLED-A TRIBUTE TO TIM PEEs1-
DENT. The New York Times refers
cditorially to the reported conversa-
ton Of Senator Weatherly, of South
Carolina, with the President, and
says: ''The President anticipates the
defeat, not the success Of the amend
ment; his influence is excrted to pro-
mote its rejection, not its ratification;
he looks to the Supreme Court to
sustain his policy as against the poll
cy of Congress, and he counsels the
Southern Legislatures to pursue a
course that will aggravate existing
evils, and widen the breach between
himself and the majority in Con-
gress.
This tribute to the determination
of the President to abide by the Con-
stitution, which he has sworn to sup
port, comes from one Of his most
overt opponents, and is intended as q
warning to the Southern people that
he is powerless to help them, and
that with Congress alone we must
make our peace. The President, the
Constitution and the right are on our
side, and we may reasonably trust to
time to ensure the fruition Of our
hopes and desires.

WORK FOR THE FUTURE.

Faith, aye, is proved by works,
And there is work for all
Who love our Southland and obeyed
Her earliest martial call.
She calls again those heroes,
From mountain and from plain,
To peaceful, earnest labor,
She must not call in vain
She has mines of wealth deep buried,
Meath her varied, teeming soil,
She has fruitful fields that ever
Must reward her children's toll
She has all that ever furnished
A nations wealth or power,
She has noble hearts within her,
Whom misfortune cannot cover.
Then let all rise up and labor
For this country and her veal,
With oil that faith and courage
With all that noble zeal
Which bore them through the conflict
On many o well-fought field
And let no gallant spirit
To adverse fate now yield

Forbids my muse to re11ar
Her usual joyo~s lay.
The fortunes of Our country
Are still too tempest-tost,
And factious hate rekindled
Till hope itself seems lost.
Our stricken South still mourning
Her sons and heroes slain,
Yet bears the yoke upon her,
But shows no servile stain.
The faction that would crush her
Beneath its iron heel
Wipe out her ancient landmarks,
And place foul treason's seal
On all who promptly rallied
To aid her now "lost cause
Still sit enthroned in power,
The trainers of our laws.
Our greeting then is sadder,
Than oft before was given,
All human help has failed us,
Our trust, our stay, is Heaven.

Gov. LYON, OF IDAHO, IN ARREARS.
The following from the Washing
ton RepubHcan tells an ugly story for
a radical Governor:
Publication was recently made that
Caleb Lyon, Of Lyonsdale, New York,
who has been Governor OF the Terri
tory of Idaho for several years past,
while on his way to this city from
New York, in tho night train, was
robbed Of forty-seven thousand dol
lars, Government funds, which he
held as superintendent OF Indian
Affairs of that Territory. Governor
Lyons says he put the sum of money
named in a belt, which, for protection
sake, should be worn around the
body; but that when he laid down in
the sleeping car he put the belt under
his head; that the thief took the
money and left the belt exactly
where the Governor put it. To say
the least, this was a considerate thief
who put the belt back under the
Governors head. What makes the
statement about the loss of the
money seem very strange, is the fact
that Mr.. Lyon should have allowed
himself to bring such large amount
Of money upon his person to this
city. There was no occasion for it.
He could have deposited it in any
Government depository and taken q
certificate therefor, the stealing of
which wculd not necessarily have
subjected him to the loss of the
money.
It will appear by the record, we
understand, that since July 2S, 1864,
the Government has advanced to
Superintendent Lyon, at different
times, about 100000, for which, we
learn, he has never rendered any ac-
count whatever. Therefore Cover
nor Lyon will not only have to &C
count to the Government for SAT, 900
taken from the belt under his head,
but for the still larger amount named
above, the disbursement of which
there is no official detail rendering
at the department. We certainly
hope Governor Lyon will make q
| satisfactory settlement of the finan-
cial affairs of his administration in
Idaho; reference to which we thus
allude to publicly, because the sub
ject is public one, and will pro-
badly be brought before the courts
at an early day.

SUPREME COURT DECISION.

That Court which once a TANEY graced
Still sits supreme DER might
And even-handed holds the scales
OF justice and of right.
The guardian of the peoples rights
Our chief tribunal stands;
Though late, those dreaded courts of war
Her dict~n, now disbands
No so-called'' justice mcted out
BY shoulder strap or star;
No more their cruel cdicts add
Fresh victims to the war.

Then will our Southland prosper,
And plenty crown once more
Her fertile plains aud ralleys,
AS in the days os vore.
Her wasted towns end cities
Will peopled then become,
With strength renewed she'll gather
All her exiled children home.
Then will rise in strength and beauty,
Where blackened ruins stand,
Fair homes and stately temples,
Dotting our pleasant land
Assembled round each hearth stone,
Shut in from toll and jar,
Young, eager hearers list t'ning
To some story of the war
And round her homes and affairs,
Kneeling children and their sires,
Will thank Him who has saved them
From factions baleful fires.

TBE AMENDMENT REJECTED.

And yet there shines star,
From out the deep'ning gloom,
Which shows the South all is not lost,
Nor buried in the tomb,
Where lies enshrined her cause,
Her banners furled and low,
Proving that honor still survived
That fatal, crushing blow!
Her States refuse to bend
The plant knee to power,
Or pass the edicts Of the men
Who madly rule the hour
Ruling in passions sway
A people aye as true
To honor liberty and right,
As nation ever knew
A people in whose faith,
AS plighted to maintain
The Constitution and the laws,
None need confde in vain
A people still oppressed
By factions cruel reign,
But guard their honor and keep bright
Their 'scutcheon without stain
A people smitten low,
Beneath the chast' ming rod,
But patient, bowing to His will,
Their Father and their God

The ermine sheathes the vengeful sword,
The badge Of war and strife;
No longer do these dreaded courts
Trifle with human life
And though their victims still may pine
In hastiles drear and grim,
Justice will ope their doors and strike
The fetters from each limb
Then let our people not despair
Nor basely cover to might;
God relgns In Heaven still supreme
And will defend the right

But something pleasant meets the eye
Since my last annual round walls
Where naught but blacken'd, crumbling
Through all our streets we're found
Stand comely structures, reared with skill
And with artistic taste
And busy 1narts and fair new homes
Fill up that dreary waste.
Our CITY, from her sad debris,
Does Phonnix-like arise
With all that energy and will
Which adverse fate defies
And those who bore the brunt Of war
Through many fierce campaign,
With HAMPTON, KERsHAw and with GREGG,
Are workers here again.
The hum of industry is heard
From morning until eve,
And gentle woman is at work
The suffering to relieve.
No more does vice or crime disturb
Our city's quiet rule,
Our youth with diligence have sought
The workshop or the school.
Thus will our city surely rise .
Triumphant DER the past,
And only memory DER that scene
It's sombre shadow cast.

Fred. Douglass lectured, the other
evening, in Brooklyn, New York.
The reporter of the E'agze, OF that
city, relates the following as the most
striking incident OF the occasion:
Our reporter runs the risk of being
accused of telling tales out of school
In noticing the fact that, at the close
OF Fred. Douglass lecture at Ply
mouth Church, last evening, a white
woman, in the exuberance OF her ad-
miration for the coiored orator, forced
upon him a high token of apprecia-
ton, in q chaste Platonic kiss. The
reporter dryly adds that the fortunate
black man received the salutation
without blushing."

THE SOUTHERN FAIR FOR ORPHANS.
The Baltimore Sun, of the 31st, says:
On Saturday evening the fair for
the relief Of the orphans throughout
the Southern States, which has been
IN successful operation during the
past ten days at Music Hall, on
Howard street near Centre, closed
with very gratifying results both to
the lady managers and to the chari-
table who aided the benevolent enter
prise. Tomorrow evening the grand
calico ball, in connection with the
fair, will take place at Music Hall,
and is expected to be very pleasant
affair. Professor Roses band is an
nounced to be in attendance, and the
lady managers of the fair will be in

LOYALTY ON PIckEr.-What the

LOYALTY ON PICKET. the
National IsteAigencer says below of
Forney's Chronicle is equally appli
cable to the radical press generally:
The virtue that is eternaLy paraded
is usually and Justly considered q
spurious article. But when it is
srumpeted forth on all occasions, and
when occasions are necessarily Gre
ated for its blatant self-assertion, it
becomes worse than dubious. If it
adds to this a perpetual onslaught on
the reputation Of others, right
minded men will not only suspect but
despise. The staple subjects of tn
Chronicle are, "our loyalty" and your
treason. Published in the city of
Washington during the war, with an
incessant dread of the consequences
OF. independent criticism before it's
eyes, it never dared utter q word
save of fulsome praise and servile
adulatlon, even when conscious that
5udicious censure would be of service
Then, as now, it Systematically SLAM
dered every individual and press that
did not measure up to its own shame
less standard.

AS the old sad year has hoated
Down the ceaseless stream of time,
Once again L bring my Offering
A poor carriers simple rhyme.
Thus the years glide on before us.
One by one they pass away,
AS writer quantity tells US,
In dead years requiem lay
Years roll through the palm of ages,
AS the dropping ros'ry speeds
Through the cold aud passive fingers
Of hermit at his beads.
One year falls and ends its penance,
One arises with it's needs,
And It's ever thus prays Nature.
Only telling years for beads
Join, then, nature in her worship,
For your country needs your prayers,
That Jehovah might relieve her
From the weight of woe she bears.
Pray for peace and restoration,
Fray for wisdom from on High,
That the people and their rulers
May be guided yet thereby.

OF the most dangerous counterfeits
in circulation. The note is fine
imitation of the $50 legal-tender,
with the vignette likeness of Alexan-

terpart OF the genuine, except some
slight errors in engraving. The easiest
way to detect the counterfeit is by
observing the marginal line of the
