Democratic Logic.


Our Copporhcad conalltatluual
and inter national lawyers some.
times gettbeir ideassligbily mixed.
Relative to JET DAVIS and his fol-
lowers they claim First, that the
rebels, being tsliigrsnfs aadpabfc
enemies, aro not smonable 10 the
civil law, and cannot be tried and
punished as criminals; and Second,
thattbey ARE, Notwithstanding their
character Of belligcrcnts and pub
lie enemics, entitled 10 all the
rights. powers and privileges Of
other citizens.
They claim that it was terrific.
rial war, and that the entrance Of
the United States army npon tho
soil OF Virginia, and other South
ern States, was invasion for the
purpose Of conquest and subjuga
tion. Yet, when the Bnited State
attempts, in the mildest manners
to assert the rights Of conqueror,
over these States, they raise the
cry Of assumption Of military de-
potism !"
They claim that while the Con.
federates were waging war upon
the United States, other rights
were In temporary allegiance, but
the moment they were conquered
they were restored to all their
rights, and could crtthem against
their conquerorsI
They claim that the Southern
Confederacy was q government de
facto, having destroyed the juris
, diction Of the United States within
its limits; yet when that de fdcto
government was overthrow by The
military power Of the Union
when according to President John
sou 5 proclamation, which they OPP
/ posed. all ciril governments had Jeta
dnnihiiated in elcven &ates--it is
tyranny and usurpation On the part
| of the conqueror TO maintain mill
tary control over the conquered
districts, pending restoration Of the
civil power.
They insist that the Confederales,
having failed TO gain their inde-
-pendence, are entitled to more con
sideralion than if they bad sue
ceeded. II the Confederates had
maintained heirindopendence they
would haze only had an equal voice
with the United States in fixing
the terms Of settlement; but bav-
ing failed, they alone are 10 dictate
the terms.
And this is Democratic logic
this is Democratic law! The rebels
were right when they said that
their defeats were BLESSINGS in dis
guise. - O. lumbus Journal.

Revolution.

We seem to be on the verge of an
Industrial Revolution. Every
where is the cooperative move.
ment discussed, and the hopes held
out to the laborer are most electri.
flying. Two things are favorable
and will be noted by those who
have seen many hopeful scenes per
ish. One is, there are no attacks
on the Social System, and the fam.
lily relation is as firm as the ancient
rocks. The other is that the con-
viction that no cooperation is pos
sible il members are idle, intem,
perate, or even immoral. In self
protection, and in common pru-
dence, only the best materials will
be selected. Thus does CO opera
tion arise 10 the dignity Of q reli-
gious movement. Besides this,
there arc startling results in a quar-
ter quite unexpected. The propri.
etors of heavy manufacturing cs-
adjustments are aroused. Antici-
pating that labor may become more
uncertain some Of the heaviest firms
are proposing consolidation, that
they may have all the advantage
which abund mt capital can be-
stow. They know what it has done.
Some, already, have consolidated.
Another important movement is
about to take place in this city
Sufficient capital has been raised to
start a co operative Importing and
Jobbing Dry Goods House, and il
only remains to complete the de.
tails of the organization. The out
lines of the plan are to employ ex'
perienced managers, and statesmen
fitted for the place, who now are in
our large establishments, but who
have no prospect Of rising, not be-
cause they have not qualification
but because there are no vacancies
There are said to be salesmen in
large houses in this city who, hav-
ing a percentage on their sales
mako $4,000 a year. Some few
are making even more. The loca-
ton of the new house will not be in
a marble building, but where rent
is moderate. Silk sold in Centre
street will be as valuable in Michi'
gan as if bought in Broadway. BY
such economies it is expected that
at least 100000 q year can be
saved, and this sum will enable the
projectors to sell goods cheap
Country merchants will be expect
cd to become stockholders, or, il
they do rot, it is the scheme that
they will be such, in part, for they
are to draw dividends according tc
tho amount Of their purchases
Meanwhile, capital has share, and
the clerks and managers another
share 1t is thought that if the
concern is wisely managed the fnaI
result will be that all other estab'
lishments in time will be forced in.
TO the measure. Then hosts of mid
die men, commercial travellers, and
high salaried clerks will be displac
ed. q
One might think the enterprise
unconnected with the interests o.
the laborer. Not so. First, the
laborer will be able to buy cheaper
goods. The house will be immedi
ately connected with the manufac
turer. All that is needed to com
plete the circle is that the manu-
featuring establishment should b,
conducted by co.operatives.--N

FRENCH METHOD OF RAISING To.
MAroEs.-As soon as a cluster Of flow.
ers is visible the stem is topped
down to the cluster, so that the
flowers terminate the stem. The
effect is that the sap is immediate
ly impelled into the two buds next
below the cluster, which soon push
strongly and produce another
cluster Of flowers each. When
these are visible the branch to which
they belong is also topped down
to their level and this is done I'VE
times sccessively. BY this means
the plants become stout, dwarf
bushes, not above eighteen inches
high. In order to prevent, their
falling over, sticks or strings are
stretched horizontally along the
rows so as to keep the plants erect.
In addition to this all the laterals
that have no flowers. and after the
fifth topping all latcrals whatsoever
Iare uipped off. In this way the
Iriue sar, is directed into the fruit,
| which acquires o beauty, size, and
excelleucs, unattairable By other
means.

DISABLED VOLUNTEERS The
board Of managers of the National
Asylum for Disabled Volunteer
Soldiers have issued a circular in
reference 10 the admission Of appli-
cants into the institution, one
branch of which is situated near
This city. We give below the
substance Of the circular
Volunteer soldiers are admitted
upon application by letter to either
Of the managers, or at the branch
asylum nearest to their place Of
residence whereupon blank appli-
cations will be sent to the appli-
cant, and if duly qualified, trans
portation will be furished him.
The requirements for candidates
are First, An honorable discharge
from the volunteer service. Second
Disability by wounds received or
sickness contracted in the line of
duty. If the applicant is unable
to travel, or Tor other sufficient cause,
relief will be furnished under the
direction of tho manager, to
whom application is made.
The overseurs OF al almshouses
and charity hospitals having disab-
led soldiers subsisting upon private
benefcence are respectfully urged
to report snch cases to either Of
the managers, as it is not fit that
meritorious disabled soldiers OF
tho nation should be supported by
private or public charity. Soldiers
are especially informed that the
asylums are neither hospitals nor
almshouses, but homes where sub
sistenee, care, education, religious
instruction, and employment are
provided for disabled soldiers by
! the Congress ofthe United States,
to be paid for from the forfeitures
/ and fines of deserters trom the ar-
my. The prorision is not chari-
lty. lis a contribution by the
bounty jumpers aud bad soldiers to
the brave and deserving, and is
their right.
Soldiers having q wife, child or
parent dependent upon them, are
not required to give up their pen
sions upon coming to the asylum.
Other soldiers are required TO as
sign theiE pensions to the asylum
in special cases only, to be deter
mined by the Board.
Suitable compensation will be
given for profitable labor in the
asylum. Good behavior will insure
the kindost treatment. Wives and
children will not be cared for at
the asylum, until after the soldier
has shown by bis ability to aid
himself and them in part, BY his
labor and eteadiness, that taking
his family in charge will not in
crease his expenses to the asylum
above the cost of other helpless
benefciaries, in which cases pro-
vision will hereafter be made. Gen.
BENJAMIN F, Butler is the Presi-
dent OF the Board of Managers

General Halpine, in his Citizen,
says that when President Lincoln
was first informed Of the arrest Of
jeff. Davis by Gen. Wilson, he
expressed his regret for it, and
illustrated his views by telling the
famous story Of the man who drew
a white elephant in a lottery. The
point of this statement is blunted
by the fact tina. Davis was moi
arrested by Col. Pritchard until
nearly four weeks after the assass'
