In his last article of self defense

In his last article of self defense,
Mr.. Greeley gives extracts from the
Richmond Whig, the Lynchburg Vir.
ginian, and Baltimore Sun, three ram
pant rebel organs, showing that he
did right in going bail for Davis
What worse could he have done p
Does not every republican in the
land know that not only these three,
but more than three hundred rebel
and copperhead organs will laud his
act as SO much of a justification of
Davis crimes, and that of all the
other rebels But are these quota
tions not fatal to Greeley's defense !?
LIS he not hard up, has he not got in
to bad company, when he is obliged
to take extracts from rebel papers to
justify bis acts. 1t seems to us, he
is rehearsing the bull in the meshes ,
the more he struggles the deeper he
gets in. He declares that those who
charge that he went Davis bail for
the sake of notorety, "abuse him,
throw mud at him." &c, and of course
throwing mud is wrong. Hear what
he says ine-tenths of those
now loudest in condemning that re-
lease are heartily glad of it, and on
ly affect the contrary because they
thereby crafty spite, or hope to
advance their own fortunes at the
expense of some one else. If they
could have Davis back in Fortress
Monroe this hour by simply wishing
it they would not" 1t is wrong in
US to attribute selfish motives to G.
Is it right in him to attribute them
to US? Then, what spite have we
to crafty? Or how is our fortune
advanced by censuring Greeley for
his errors? We would not, if we
could, wish Davis back to Fortress
Monroe to be entertained like a
prince, but we would send him to
the gallows, or to an AndersonviIle
prison during his natural life.
Mr. Greeley predicts that all those
who find fault with the release of
Davis, and with him for assisting in
the matter, will, "ere three years are
passed, protest that they did not
mean it," or in other words, regret
their condemnation of this business.
This is barely possible, but highly
improbable and while MIR. G. has
set us the example, we will also pro.
phecy and that is, that he will
deeply regret this Davis bail trans
action ere three years are ended, un-
less indeed, he goes entirely over to
the enemy, and there is now some
danger of this even then, we can
not see how he can get rid of deep
modification.

The differences between Napo-

leon and the Corps Legislatif of France, on
the reorganization question, have been
satisfactorily settled, say the foreign des-
patches of this morning. We suppose this
means an amicable settlement. The differ
ences between our Congress and the Presi-
dent were satisfactorily adjusted during the
last session.
The resting place of the remains
of the Murderer of Abraham Lincoln is in
the Old Penitentiary, Washington city, ad-
joining the old Arsenal grounds. The build
ing has not been used as prison for many
years, and at the time of the assassination
was occupied as an ordnance department
One of the largest cells on the first floor was
selected for the burial ground. The ammu-
milton it contained was removed, n large fiat
stone Was lifted from its place, grave dug,
and the remains of the assassin deposited
therein, where they rest to this day. The
stone was replaced, and should be engraved
with the simple truth, q Here rests yO,dt
made mad by The teaching Of modern demo-
Gratis !" for surely if the blood of Abraham
Lincoln is on the soul of his murderer the
fearful end of Booth will forever be remem-
bered as the result Of the criminal iniuen-
ces of Democracy.
-Anson q. B. Dodge, of New
York city, has started town in Cameron
county, Pa, on an entirely new and liberal
principle. He proposes to give fifteen acres
of good land to every permanent settler
The location Of this land is on the Smeth-
port turnpike, twenty miles from the Phila-
delphia and Erie Railroad, in Cameron
County. Good roads are being opened to
the railroad, and it is expected that during
the summer a good road will be made to
bring this settlement" directly in commun-
ication with Clearield There is no ques-
tioning such liberality and enterprise. So
says the Harrisburg Telegraph.

"The author undertakes the work in the
earnest hope that it may aid in setting the
work of the Navy in its true light before
the public,-to show the people how much
the country is indebted for its triumph and
present security to those who organized and
directed the operations of the Navy, and to
those who so successfully guarded our long
coast-line and communications, and fought
our battles upon the rivers and the sea :"
while the publishers are determined to car
ry out the most liberal views in its produc
ton. They intend to spare neither pains
nor money to make the work all that the
most ardent friends of the Navy could de-
sire. 1t will be printed on beautiful paper,
of excellent quality, in large clear type, and
handsomely bound in various styles.

mailing process are similar to those the grain
undergoes in the course ot>vcsctatioa, when
sown in the ground The constituents or
clements of this whisky are alcohol, pcler-
gonic ether, acctc ether, fusil oil and pyro-
ligncous acid (crude creosotc.) Whisky
owes its favor to .pelergonic ether, which is
nearly identical with mnanthic ether. The
smoky taste apparent in Scotch whisky is
impaired by pyroligneous acid, and is usually
initiated by adding IL small quantity of
creosote dissolved in acctc ether.
The manufacturer subsequently, not CON
tent with making respectable imitation of
the genuine liquor, from new spirits and
harmless flowers, must needs reduce the
alcohol so much by the addition of water
that it becomes necessary to resort to the
alternative of giving the spirit fictitious
strength, by the addition Of Guinea pepper
pelitory, or grains of Paradise. This
metod of adulteraton imparts II burning
taste to the spirit, which by the ignorant is
considered an evidence of strength. BY
this means the dealer makes 80 gallons of
imitation alcohol out of % gallons of water
charged with Guinea pepper, &c, and mix
ing in a sufficient beading. The receipt
usually is Us follows;
To 40 gallons common whisky, add
so gallons water,
gallons tincture Guinea pepper,
quart tincture Of pellitory,
= ounces acetic ether
j. gallons strong tea.
TO improve the flavor of this whisky add
three ounces pulverized charcoal, and four
ounces ground rice into a gallon of spirits,
letting it stand for week, and stirring it
every day.

" f,isk what Men Drink for
Pure Spirits.

Since the commencement Of the invcsti,
CATION by the Government officials into Illicit
distilery business, some queer revelations
have been made in regard to the manuEac
turc Of whisky. The processes of manufac
turing this vile stuff are as various as the
quality Of the pefnicious compound usually
in nine, tcnths Of the barrooms throughout
the country. Men have no idea of what they
drink under the name of whisky.
1t is a matter Of impossiblity, says the
New orig Erpress, to get glass Of pure
whisky or liquor of any kind, even in what,
rs considered first class places. The Illicit
Installations ofwhisky has been carried Oh
since the tax Of 50 per gallon, put on by the
Government by small stills. As recently as
Tuesday ono Of the Assessors was informed
that some parties were manufacturing it in
wash kettles After few hours search ar
old woman was found manufacturing what is
called ''potteen in IL kettle. The com
pound was sufficient to have poisoned /.
regiment of men, if they had drank enougl
Of it.
"Pottccn,' or Illicit Irish and Scotcl
whisky, is lar-famed as an ingredient 70
making whisky punch and whisky skins
The singular favor OF the Irish is suppose
to be caused by using turf for the extraction
of the malt. In making pottecn, that dis
Tiled from pure malt is considered superio
to that made from mixture of malt and IA,
grain. 10 assign reason for this wou
require an analysis of thcprocess of malt
but it may be observed that the effects Of til
