THE YANKEE PHOTOGRAPHED BY One
OF His K1ND.-Mr. E. P. Whipple, the
popular New England lecturer, thus
graphically paints a people with whom
than himself no one is more familiar !:
"The leading defect of the Yankee
consists in the gulf that separates his
moral opinions from his moral princi-
Piles. His talk about virtue in the alb
stract would pass as sound in a nation
of saints; but he still contrives that his
interest shall not suffer by the rigidity
of his maxims." Your true Yankee
he goes on to say, has spruce, clean
Pecksnifian way of doing wrong that
is inimitable. Believing, after certain
fashion, in justice and retribution, he
still thinks that a sly, shrewd, keen,
supple gentleman like himself can dodge,
in a quiet way, the moral laws Of the
Universe, without any particular both
er being made about it"

A SAD SToRY.-While laborers were
demolishing an old building on Twenty
seventh street, New York, on Tuesday,
they discovered, in an old rats nest5'a
roll of bills, amounting to $3.50. About
eight years ago, one OF the occupants Of
the house lost the money. At the time
Of this loss young man named William
Cummings, clerk in a down town tea
store, was boardingin the house, and as
he was the last one seen in the room
prior to the loss, he was suspected of the
robbery, and, on being arrested, was
convicted of the crime and sent to pris-
on, with character ruined and bereft cf
friends He gave way to dissipation,
and eventually died on Blackwell Island.

Falling Leaves.

They ore falling, slowly falling,
Thick npon the forest side,
Severed from the noble. branches,
Who're they waved in beaateous pride.
They are falling inthe valleys,
Where.th carly violets spring,
And the birds in sunny sporting time,
First their du!cet music sing.
They are falling, sadly falling, -
Close beside our cottage door; ~
&. Pale and faded, like theloved ones,
They have gone forever more.
They are FILLING, and the sunieams
Shine in beauty soft around;
Yet. the-f faded leaves are falling,
Falling on the mossy ground.
They are falling on the streamlet,
Where the silvery waters flow,
And upon the placid bosom,
Onward with blue waters go.
They are falling in the churchyard,
Where our kindred sweetly sleep,
Where the idle winds of summer
Softly DER tho loved ones sweep.
They are falling, ever falling,
When the ewinter breeEes sigh,
When the stars in beauty glisten
Bright upon the midnight sky.
They are falling when the tempest
Means like oceans hollow roar,
When tho tuneless winds and billows
Sadly sigh for evermore.
They are falling, they are falling,
While our saddened thoughts still 30
To the sunny days of childhood,
In tho dreamy long ago.
And their faded hues remind US -
OF the blasted hopes and dreams,
Faded, like the falling leaflets,
Gas; upon the icJ streams.

SECRETARY sSfwARD's Position
Ths N. Y. Sun. referring to Mr.. Sew
ards recent visit to that city, and the
warm greeting he metwith from men Of
all.parties, remarks: , 's-ra.4
Inpolitics the position of MI. Seward
is simple and characteristic. Toward
General Grant lie cherishes the conf
dence and respect due to his eminent
abilities, character and services. He
regards him as firm, prudent and pa
tliotic man. who will administer gov
ernment with no purpose except the
good Of, the country. The Radical par
ty,.however,; and its policy do not re-
ceive Mr. Stewards appreciation or as
sent. He favored a different mode Of
reconstructing the Southern States. He
believed that a simple adherence to the
constitution, with the least possible
amount of special legislation, was all
that was necessary to bring their peo-
pie back into the Union, and to estab-
hsh peace as rapidly and as thoroughly
as was possibleTafter SO fierce "a civil
war. The Republican party, however,
determined to pursue a different course;
and asJMr. Seward has not been able to
share in their views or in their expecta-
tionsas regards the South, he is not
now able to make common cause with
them in the pending campaign. At the
-same time he is still less able to join the
democracy Mr.. Seward thus stands
9irtually outside of all existing political
Organizations.

Bismarck the energetic Minister OF
Prussia, is accused by the French pa
pers of having fompnted the revolution
in Spain. The funds at the disposal Of
the insurgent generals, it is stated, were
advanced by Prussia, who raised the
means in London and Cadiz, from the
securities transferred about year ago,
by Italy, in payment for needle-gguns;:
The proceeds Of this latter transaction
in the money market enabled Marshal
Serrano to settle the claims Of the troops
whose pay had long been i'll arrear, and
thus to enlist thesympathy OF the Span
ish army. in the insurrection. King
William, Of Prussia, is gaining the re-
putation Of a crafty disturber Of the ma
tions of Europe, while he is carrying
out his plans for the enlargement OF his
own domains.

WORTHY OF EMuLAT1oN.-The Mil
ledgeville Federal Union Of last Tues
day says that, on the Saturday previous,
a freedman traded one hundred and fif-
ty dollars cash at one Of the grocery and
provision houses in that city. This in
dustrious freedman, the editor says, will
make oyer hoczvc hundred dollars clear
profit on his crop, which has been culti-
waited wholly by his own family this
year. We would be glad to know that
more of our colored citizens were on the
same high road to fortune; but assure
them that they can never attain to this
man success unless they go manfully to
work, as he has done.

Politics in Camden.

To the Editors of the Ecestng Telegraph:-I
seek no controversy. 1t is no time tor the
friends of freedom to have divisions in their
ranks. There will be no such thing among the
serious, and the stake too great for which De-
mocracy contends in this last battle, in which
human liberty will triumph and intolerance
and injustice will go to the wall. Your other
correspondent had the last word two months
ago, and now, by permission OF Mr. Scovel and
to do justice to brave and courageous man,
send you copy of letter TO him from Thad-
deus Stevens, dated April l5, 1868. 1t is as fol-
lows:-
"House OF Representatives, Washington, d. c.
Dear scoye:-Aia6ama Is not yet admitted. We are
not out OF the woods. This body lacks courage Why
can't you come here q member of the nex Con-
sgress We need true men.

WAmerican COnfiict.O

Mr.. Greeley tells the New York Ledger no W
he came to write his American Conflict" We
make the following extract from his account,
from which it will be seen that the book must
be very unreliable as work of history. He
says:-
In many cases ! found officers reported killed
in battles whom l atterward found lighting in
subsequent battles; whence l conclude they
had not been killed so dead as they might have
been. Some of the errors into which I was
thus led by my authorities were not corrected
till after my work was printed; when the gen.
tlemen thus conclusively disposed of began to
write me, insisting that though desperately
wounded at the battle in question, they had
remained in the land OF embodied rather than
that of discmbodied souls. Their testimony was
so direct and pointed that was constrained to
believe it. and to correct page after page accord
ingly. Ipresume few, even yet, remain con-
signed to the shades In my book, who neverthe.
less, to this day, consume rations of beef and
pork with most unspiritual regularity and self
satisfaction. There doubtless remain some
other errors, though / have corrected many:
and, as l have stated many more particulars
than my rivals in the same field have usually
done, it is probable that my work originally
embodied more error0 of fact or incident than
almost any other.
In another part of this statement Mr.. Greeley
says:-
The sale of my history was very large and
steady down TO the date OF the clamor raised
touching the bailing OF jefferson Davis, when it
almost ceased for season; thousands who had
subscribed for 1t refusing TO take their copies,
to the sore disappointment aud loss of the
agents who had supplied themselves with fifty
to one hundred copies each, in accordance with
their orders; and who thus found themselves
suddenly, through no fault of theirs, involved
In serious embarrassmeDts. 1 greved that they
were thus afflicted for what, at the worst, was
no fault of theirs; while their loss by every
CODY thus refused was twenty times nv own.
