number, seventy seven received, at the ex~
piration of their apprenticeship in decent
families, gratuities, varying from two to
five gnineas for good conduct, such gratui'
ties being awarded only on certificates OF
the employer. Four died, three became
inValids or insane, seven forfeited the
graituity for obstinacy without vice, three
committed ofienses but afterwards re-
formed, four never came for the gratnity,
and of the whole number, l03, only three
turned out bad characters; two were taken
out by their mothers whose history is un>
known. At the nursery four have re-
mained q year nursing their own infants
and obtained certificate of excellent be-
havior, while more than eighty were
placed in situations where they gave entire
satisfaction. Several have been married
and are leading virtuous lives.
1t was not until the time OF Vincent de
Paul, in the 18th century, that the civil
existence of foundlings was acknowledged,
though foundiing hospitals have been
known since 1870. Louis XIV regarded
their establishment az Christian duty be-
cause of the feebleness and misfortune of
their inmates and because they might be
useful in the country's service. The bril-
liant yet gentle Marie Antoinette took the
deepest interest both in the mothers and
their children, and founded l believe, the
first lying-in-asylum in the Old World
certainly the first in France. The good
they have done-and sir, there is in this
life hardly any good unmixed with evil
is almost beyond calculation. They have
had both the support OF the State and the
labors and prayers of those Sisters of Mercy,
whose mission it is to visit the sick, to
plunge into the infection Of hospitals, to
redeem vice of half its horrors and sorrow
of half its grief by giving to virtue its
most dignified excellence and grace.

Important Action of the Georgia Re-
construction Convention.

ATLANTA, Jan. 21.-The convention to-
day, By vote of 92 to AZ, adopted the fol-
lowing:
Whereas, The reconstruction acts recogI
nize the existence of government within
the limits of Georgia, subject to the mill
tary commanders of the district and the
paramount authority of Congress, under
which certain officials hold Office
And whereas, The time for which said
officials were elected az set forth in laws
allowed to operate within said limits, has
expired, and said officials hold only by
reason of failure to provide their succesr
sors;
And whereas. A great many of said Off
cials are hostile, and are assiduously using
their influence against the restoration OF
Georgia to the Union, and by 80 doing are
not only seriously retarding the work oi
reconstruction, but also materially affecting
the prosperity of the State; therefore
Resolved, That the convention do here
by request the legislative department Of
the government Of the United States to au-
therize their body to declare vacant the
chief executive office of the State, and
to fill the same, az we'll as to provide
for removal, through the chief execu.
tive officer of the State thus selected, of all
persons who are hostile to reconstruction
and the filling ofsdch vacancies by said
executive.
Resolved, That the convention, in jus
tice to the friends of reconstruction under
the reconstruction acts, do hereby request
the department aforesaid tOrelieve all such
of existing disability, that they may bt
eligible to fill the vacancies thus created
Resolved, That the convention do fur
ther request the modification of the test
| oath so as to admit of all persons who hav'
aided or abetted the late war holding office
provided such persons heartily regret thu
past, and are earnestly attached, and arr
| determined to labor for the State on tn
| basis of the reconstruction acts.

UNION AND DISPATCH FOR 1855.

In response to the stringency Of the
times, and to enable them to reach q
greater number Of readers, during the
perilOus trials through which the coun~
try is passing, the proprietors of the
UNION AND DISPATCH have determined to
again reduce the terms of subscription,
and hereby announce to their patrons
and the public that from this date, these
terms viii be:
For the Daily Union and Dispatch. per
For the Tri-Weeekly Union and Dispatch.
per D w
Having led of, about year ago, in q
reduction of the subscription price of the
Nashville papers from fourteen to tpeire
dollars per annum for the daily-making
corresponding reduction in the price
of the tri-weekly edition-we take
pleasure in being again the pioneer in
still further reduction, to the same ex~
tent We have thus brought down the
price of a frst-class political CONNER
cial and news journal in Tennessee, to
nearly the ante-war prices
Our purpose is to practice what we
preach. We are for retrenchment and
economy in every vocation of life. The
discreet and honest newspaper is now
necessity in every intelligent and
well ordered household, and we are re-
solved to furnish the UNION AND DISPATCH
for the least possible living price, pres
cisely as all the other necessaries of life
ought to be furnished The time has
passed for grand speculations in the legiti-
mate avocations of life in this community.
Rather we should desire to see every
branch of Tennessee trade and industry
become a mutual help and assistance,
each to the other, and so lay the founda-
tions of general prosperity wide and
deep, in the primary elements of self
dependence and local independence.
We send abroad for nothing that we can
obtain at home, and thus we unite our
fortunes, as we'll as our lives, with those
among whom we live.
At our present rates the several edi-
tions Of the UNION AND DISPATCH will be
within the reach of all who feel an in
terest in the great events that are daily
passing into the history of the country
and we trust that our effort will meet a
substantial appreciation on the part o
our patrons and the general public.

George Francis Train.

LONDON, Jan 21.-George Francis Train
has been released by the Cork authorities.
The cause which led to the arrest of Mr..
Train was through the instrumentality Of
an Englishman named George Fellow, a
passenger with Mr.. Train, who informed
the officers ON the tug which boarded the
Scotia at Queenstown, that Mr.. Train said
that he came to Ireland to organize the
Fenians and commence a fight. Mr.. Train
was arrested upon this information.
George denied giving any such information
when before the court. Consul Eastman,
at Queenstown, was exceedingly active in
Mr.. Trains behalf Minister Adams at
once saw Lord Stanley, who at once ordered
the release of Mr.. Train. Lord Stanley
disavowed the act on the part of the gov>
ernment, and stated that the local authors
ties were solely responsible.

QUoTING poetry seems to be fayorite
practice among politicians, and is indulged
in to a large extent by our extensively
read Congressman. II is by no means
always appropriate, but generally accurate,
because taken directly from dictionary of
poetic quotations. That the Judgment of
the politicians is not always good enough
to apply the verses correctly, is not the
fault Of the poet, and may be regarded
merely as a public misfortune. An in
stance has occurred, however, in which
member has made singularly appropri-
ate quotation in Congress, that will bear
repetition. 1t applies TO the majority of
our Office. holders:

United States, on the 18th inst, to fix an
early day for the argument in the case of
Col. Wm. II. McCardle, Attorney General
Slanberry defined his position, and is re-
ported as follows;
He said that case had been laid before
the President in which a military commis-
sion had sentenced person 70 death. The
question had been propounded to him by
the President whether the condemnation
and sentence we're legal. He had, in ac-
cordance with his convictions, answered
that they were illegal and void, and had
advised the President not TO approve them.
This being his opinion, he could not OF
course take the other side OF the question
Therefore he had declined TO argue it here.
He had left il TO be argued by those who
believed in the doctrine.

Sheridan has been TO see his parents,
and while there, newspaper correspOn-
dent pumped the following ont of him, and
sent it to the Ohio State Journal, which, of
course, published it:
The papers report you, General, as hay
ing said that Grant was more radical than
yourself; how do you make that out
said so," returned the General " and prove
it thus: When first took command of the
filh district Gen. Grant sent me an order
to allow no man to sit on jury who could
not take the iron-clad OATH | mildly
demonstrated against this, and wrote to the
General requesting a modification OF the
order, 20 that all who might roie, might also
sit upon jury.
This he did accordingly, and it was for
this very radical order and its modification
TO suit me that / said he was more radical
than myself" The oath referred to re-
quires a man TO swear that he never bore
arms against, or acknowledged allegiance
to the Southern Coniederacy, or gave to
the enemies of the United States aid, COM
fort, or encouragement.
IL is, therefore, called the iron.clad"
But Sheridan found many who eould not
take this oath who had been forced into re-
bellion, and who had been clothed with the
right of suffrage, and to this class he very
properly accorded a right TO sit upon the
jury.
"Is il your opinion, General, that Grant
did all he could to sustain you ?"
Undoubtedly" was his reply. Every
thing | did was under direct order from
him, or under his Endorsement and APP
proval. To fall out with me, therefore,
was to fall ont with Grant himself In

Will Grant certainly be a candidate for
President? "Nut by his own choice"
promptly returned Sheridan; "but if he
accepts the nomination l believe he will
do 40 from motives Of duty to his friends
and country, in the spirit of sacrifice and
patriotism, for which he il 20 remarkably
distinguished"

struction succeed? Another Whit at his
