a OAFlIAL oPEECH.-Cfen. george
w. Morgan made capital speech at
Cincinnati the other day, of which
the following was the conclusion. It
Is one of the bravest Northern SOL
diers who speaks and thus pleads for
mercy to the conquered and peace to
the country:
But is no one to be punished
Punished ! Does that question en-
anate from q human heart, or is it an
inspiration from fiend of hell ?
Punished !! Why, my countrymen,
never in the history of civilized war
fare was such dire punishment in
hicted upon q conquered people as
that endured by our countrymen of
The SSooCssis. SoCs Towns and cities sacked
and burned. Whole districts charred
and desolated as if by the demon of
destruction, and millions who were
reared in afduence reduced by the
shock of war to penury and want.
But is no one to die? LIS no blood
to be shed? Almighty God No one
to diel Let the five hundred thou
sand Southern graves, around which
the melancholy cypress stands as
spectral sentinels mourning over the
victims of fallen cause, answer the
hyena cry for blood. Five hundred
thousand graves, the sad monu-
n,ents of the error OF heroic but
defeated people. Five hundred
thousand Southern homes are draped
in mourning for the loved ones who
slumber in defeat beneath the Grim.
son sod. Five hundred thousand
Southern homes are desolate, and
the night wind. as it sweeps across an
hundred ensanguined battle-felds, is
still burthened with the groans of
anguish and the sighs of despair
which come from the graves of those
who died in lost and mistaken
cause. Five hundred thousand South
ern mothers, widows, orphans, are
the living monuments of the blight
of fratricidal war. And who asks for
vengeance more than this i? What
demon in human shape cries for
blood My countrymen, the very
earth is still red with brothers blood,
by brothers shed. Oh, then, let us
stauncn the gaping wOundSsof war,
and check the crimson tide as it ebbs
away. And our own dead heroes,
what of them ? The laurel blooms
upon the graves-the starry banner,
under which they nobly died, waves
over them. Their bodies are dead,
but their names and glorious deeds
will live forever. They died for the
Union they loved, for the flag they
adored. Oh, my countrymen, let It
not be said that they died in vain !
But upon their tombs, to consecrate
their deeds, let the temple of the
Union be restored. And let us ali
North-men and South men, Join
hands over their graves and swear
that our free Constitution shall en-
dure forever.

A NEW PLAN PRoPoSED.-Amid all the
controversy about license laws, the Albany
argus suggests the plan of leaving the sale
of liquors free and licensing drinkers, as it
is the drinking, not the selling, that does
the mischief. The license should provide
that ono man should be entitled to drink
unless he first got license and any bar
keeper who should sell to an unlicensed
party should be subject TO fine and imprl-
sonment. The license should be annual !;
and the sum charged should be from $40 to
800. No young man should be allowed
license till he was sixteen, and then and
until twenty Lone years of age, only beer
license at a moderate charge. After
twenty-one he could vote, drink, and chew
tobacco upon payment Of license; and the
same privilege should be extended to
strong minded women. Some men whose
constitutions utterly unfit them for pota-
tons should be refused license altogether.
They are non-insurable.' Before taking
out his license q citizen would have time
to reflect; and as they would have to pay
in advance for the glorious privilege, the
reflection would be forced upon most peo-
pie. 1t is true that with these parchment
privileges we should have titular nobility
of drink; but lofty as this aristocracy
might be at night, and in the wee sma
hours of the morning, the next day it would
be abiect enough There need be no fear
to our democratic institutions from class
privileged to these mutations at the penalty
of such depressions. "-BoSton PoSt.

ments was then passed-ayes, 1875; nays,

The SHERMAN BLL-MR. JoBSsos.-
The Sans Washington letter saws that 1,
was conceded on Tuesday that the Sher-
man Blaine military government bill will
fail to become q law this session, even II
the Honse and the Senate shall agree upon
its provisions, unless the President shall
return the bill within the coming week so
as to give Congress time to act upon II
should Mr.. Johnson veto the measure.
There are some who profess to believe
that the President viii sign the bill, with a
protest, after the manner OF procedure in
the Tennessee act, at the last session but
mono Of those conversant with Mr.. John
sons views believe he will pocket the bill.
On the contrary, they assert he will cou-
rageously meet the issue and return the
bin, If It should be passed by both branches,
with either his approval or disapproyal, aa
his judgment and conscience may dictate.
The Ga<ette's letter says:
OF course the Democratic members
voted in solid body against the PROPOSE.
ton, on the ground Of its intolerable op.
preston, although learn great exertions
were made by a certain person, not no,o to
pdrticaddrised, in the interest of its pas
sage. This extraordinary movement was
doubtless attributable to excessive pru.
dence, bordering upon timidity, in view OF
apprehensions Of greater outrages but
as the advice was wholly disregarded, the
matter, so far as affects the adviser, may
well and proftably be dismissed for the
present.
