Progress OF Reconstruction.

The New Orleans Times is q we'll
conducted and influential journal.
and although very .SomAe,m in its
tone and sentiments, it writes tenn
perately and hopefully of eventual
reconstruction under the late law OF
Congress. While, with a large ma
Jorlry of the people, the Times de-
plores the harshness Of some of the
provisions of that law, it deprccates
any angry opposition, and argues
that the penalties imposed will not,
after all, fall 50 widely as expected.
Speaking Of the oath required, it
says that ''the gist Of the whole mat
ter IS, that the voter will support the
Constitution and obey, not any kind
OF laws, d@t tie iu'rs passed eoede, Me
Co">fifutioa, and adds, that any true
Southerner would take it gladly,
honestly and wish al his heart, -" if it
orlngs restoration. The Times thinks
shat Tie number ii..sfTanclised by the
oath IS so small that the white citi-
zens may continue to exercise great
numerical influence at the polls, if
they repudiate violent and unwisc
counsc!s. The practical application
Of this view, it is added, will be en-
dorsed by two-thirds of the white
community of Louisiana.
The same moderate views arc ey-
pressed BY majority of our South
ern exchanges, and from the mani
festatlons thus made at the beginning
OF the existence Of military rule in
the South, We may hope that a con
tinuance of wise counsels and q strict
aohcsion to conservatism, to law and
to orderly conduct, viii cause The
progress Of reconstruction to move
onward smoothly, without suffering
violence from any un leccssarv obsta-
Gle placed III its way, either by the
authorities or the people.

GENERAL SIcKLEs.-Gen. Roscn-

brisadier-general in the regular army.
The friends of General Sickles, the
commander of this military district,

The appointment is urged not only
on account of the military services

GEORGIA. letter to a New Or
leans paper from Augusta, Georgia,
says that enterprise is as dead in that
State as if the country were a desert.
There is sickly trade in the neces-
sarles OF life, in which purchasers
buy by The ounce or pound, and
sellers require to see the greenbacks
before they deliver their goods. The
happy few who have a little money
hold on to it, and, needless of all the
tempting offers of three, four, five
and even six per cent. month, with
all sorts Of collaterals, prefer to keep

4 Generous Lady.

At one Of the last balls given by the
Minister Of the navy, one of the most CHARM
ING ladies Of Paris, noted for her immense
wealth. her elegance and her exquisite taste,
wore a full set Of imitation jewellery, manu-
facturcd by q most skillful mechanic. She
was highly amused at the congratulations
that we're offered to her, especially in regard
to a pair of enamel bracelets, wrought in
the style Of the Etruscan iewelry at the
museum of the Lauvre, which belonged Or
iginalIy to the Campana collection. At
the close of the ball, after the cotillion was
over. Sue commenced distributing among
the friends surrounding her, not only the
set of iewelry which she had worn during
the evening, and which she took from her
wrists, her neck and her ears, but large
number of sleeye-buttons breastpins, ear
rings, agraties, &C., which her husband
brought to her in a. large casl1et. Only
several days afterwards she explained the
whole secret to those on whom she lavished
her gifts, and who wore the imitation jew
elry in the full belief that it was highly
valuable.
'.All the jewelry together, cost me forty
francs, she said, bursting into loud laugh

RAYMOND AND BUTLER.
In answer to questions he stated that

THE NEXT PRESIDENT.

Old Thad is not disposed to be communica-

can ever occupy in the United States, and
does not believe he would be foolish enough
to look for any other. He thinks success

Chase he regards as Il negative man, by no

FROM WASHINGTON.

The judiciary Committees Snarl-Im-
parchment, Ssc.--SenatOr Nye on South
ern AdmissiOn-Applicants for the Agri-
cultural CommissiOncrship-C Conspiracy
Committee, &c.
WASHINGTON, July 1O--Quite q spicy de-
bate sprung up in the House this afternoon
between members of the judiciary COM
mittee upon the action of the respective
members, in committee and out of it.
EXAMINATIONS and recriminations were in
dulged in pretty freely between the chair
man, Mr.. Wilson, and the member from
Pennsylvania, Mr.. Williams.
Mr.. Wilson charged Williams with tell
ing tales out of school, and with delaying
the report by prolonging testimony, etc.
The. latter denied the charge, however. 1t
appears also that some members of the
committee complain that the minority of
their body continued to take testimony
long after they had passed a resolution
that these were no grounds for lmpeach-
ment, and after it was agreed they should
meet on the 25th of June last, solely for
the purpose Of making up their report to
be submitted to Congress.
| In the Senate Mr.. Nye, in the course of
| his remarks upon the reconstruction bill,
announced substantially that he would
never consent to admit the Southern States
until all rebels were disfranchised, and he
| did not believe those States would be loyal
until every rebel in them is dead.
| The Senate is expected TO conclude its
| debate on the reconstruction bill to-mor-
row, and if necessary to do so will hold a
night session for the purpose.
There are twenty-three applicants for the
position of commissioner of agriculture,

WHOM FIRST WE LOVE.

Whom first we love, you know, we seldom wed;
Time r11les us all And life, indeed. is not
The thing we planned it ont ere hope was dead !;
And then we women cannot choose our lot.
Much must be borne which is hard to bear,
Much given away which it were sweet to keep
God help us all :. who need, indeed, his care;
And vet I know the Shepherd loves his sheep.

Upon my knee his earliest infant prayer;
He has his fathers eager eye, know,
And they say, too, his mother sunny halr.
But when he sleeps and smiles upon my knee,
And [ can feel his light breath come and go.
I think of ono-Heaven help and pity me
Who loved me, and whom loved, long ago.
Who might have been-ah, what, l dare not
think.
We are all changed. God judges for the best,
God help US to do our duty, and not shrink,
And trust in Heaven for the rest.
But blame us women not, if some appear
Too cold at times, and some too gay and night
Some grefs gnaw deep; some VICES are nara 10

Who knows the past ? And who can judge us

stevens and his Brethren.

A correspondent of the New York Heralo
relates a long conversation with Thad'
Stevens on public men and public meas
urcs. We extract the following para
graphs
WADE AND FESSENDEN- THEIR JEALOUSIES
Question-You think, then, that a reso-
luton of impeachment could not now be
carried
Mr. Stevens-I think not. 1t would be
defeated on account of jealousy on the
pant of the opponents of Senator Wade.
The contest between Wade and Fessenden
for the Presidency of the Senate was very
bitter one, and personal feelings and mo-
tives will interfere to prevent Wade from
occupying the Presidential chair, even for
a single day After Wade's election, Blaine,
of Maine, said on the floor OF the House,
sthis Congress will never vote for lmpeach-
ment We don't want any of Ben. Wade's
'Shellywaggers around the White House. .
It is this sentiment that will defeat i'm
parchment. Every little tricky politician
who wants this man for a postmaster or
that man for d constable, and does not
think Ben. Wade will give him what he
wants, will oppose it.
NEW YORK ABOUT TO BE LOST.
Ouestion-What do you think, sir, of the
condition of the republican party i'll New
York State ?
Mr.. Stevens-I think you will be killed
by conservatism in New York. Your re:
publicans are what the Indian would call
'' mighty uncertain" They have no bold
ness or settled principle. Your last year
platform was one of the most absurd and
cowardly that could be adopted in coun.
try running rapidly to radicalism. Greeley
has generally spit upon such reforms but
[ suppose he will be for still more diluted
one next year. Your representatives are
not reliable. look upon Lail1in as an en-
tirely demoralized man. Most of the 9th
els are no better than he. Conkllng has
hitherto been true, and hope he will con
tinue so in his new position. l believe
New York will be lost this year by want OF
earnestness in the cause, and by the dish
water which has been thrown around by
Greeley and Gerrit Smith.
PENNSYLVANIA GOING Too-CORRUPTIoN, CAM
ERoN AND GEARY.
Ouestion-Is the republican party well
united in Pennsylvania?
Mr.. Stevens-I fear that we shall lose
Pennsylvania this next election. do not
think we have earnestness enough In the
State to unite and draw out the Republican
