isterial capacity in the Stanton disgraceful de-
cisiOn. IT.
General Lorenzo Thomas has entered suit
against Edwin nj. Stanton for false and ma
licious imprisonment fixing his damages at
rather high figure -$l50,00O. The suit mag
test the constitutionality of the Tenure of Office
Bill.
It has been telegraphed from this city that
President johnson has given directions to At
torney General Stanbery to have writ Of quo
0arrGnto served on Stanton, to make him show
by achat authority he has entrenched himself in
the War Department, and holds possession of
the same at the point of the bayonet.
The amendatory reconstruction bill, having
passed both branches of the Rump Congress,
has been sent to the President for his approval.
This is the fourth or fifth reconstruction bill
that has been enacted within the past two years
at an expense Of millions of dollars, and the
South is about as near reconstructed to-day
lin Radical measures) as it was two years. ago.
Zone man can take horse to water, but seven
can make him drink, is an old Scotch obser-
walton, and the same may be said of the South
The present bill provides that majority of the
votes cast shall ratify the Constitution framed
by the Black and Tan Conventions. This
makes little difference, for majority of the
Southern States will send the aforesaid Consti-
buttons to Tophet And with some of the
Southern States, in this respect, the Radical
Rump very forcibly resembles the man who
drew an elephant in a lottery; he didn't know
what to do with his prize!
Superintendent Kennedy, of New York, tele-
graphed to Congress that large amount of
nitro glycerne had been shipped from that city
to parts unknown, but surmised that it may
have been intended for the Capitol Since the
receipt Of the telegram, Radical Rumpites have
suddenly discovered gray hairs in their heads |!

them that their fears of sudden elevation

although we should grant this view to be
ever so Just, We tend, nevertheless, tnat
universal discord among the whites OF the
State at this critical juncture is too costly
balm to apply to their wounded spirits. GOOD
and faithful men were the leaders OF this move
ment and the expounders Of the principles
then ayowed;men so good and so patriotic that
they would never have allowed themselves to
be infuen ced by petty question OF prece-
denee when the interests OF the state were con,
cerned. Greater is he that ruleth his spirit
than he that taketh city; and while General
Hampton certainly possesses the latter CLAIM
to distinctions lit is unquestionable, according
to the popular estimate OF his character, tnat,
even under temptations as great as those
which seem to have Influenced some Of our re-
cusant Democrats, he would have dlspiayed
also the former noble and more exalted title to
greatness.
The assembly, on Saturday night, not only
objected to the Democratic convention on the
grounds above considered, but by something
Stronger than Implication, although not ex.
pEcitly; they also carped at declaratlons OF
policy madeby that body. We do not design
to enter upon discussion of. the merits OF the
question in itself considered, especially since
thew have not made an issue clearly upon any
particular point; but even though We might
think these declarations wrong, it is to be
clearly pointed out that the co1yentlon' com,
posed OF delegates from many districts, could
sneak the general sentiment of the State at
large more authoritatively than any collection
of men from Charleston alone. So that, even
although they may be right on this point, it is
as we'll that they be modestin stigmatizlng the
action Of the other body.
Above all, We deprecate and lament the dis
cord this sort Of captiousness is calculated to
excite. and We renew the advice given at the
time Of the occurrences by every paper in the
cisy, that it would be far better for Us to waive
minor objections and petty disagreements, and
to act together harmoniously, even at the ex-
pense Of little sacrifice Of feeling.

@ AVOID POISON INVALID READER,
do you know what nine-tenths of the bitter COM

as universal panaceas are composed Of? Gave heed
for moment. They are manufactured from unpu-
rifed alcohol, containing considerable portion OF
fusil ola poison almost deadly as prussc acid.
The basis OF the regular tinctures of the Materia
Medicais the same Noamount Of "herbal extracts"

as component of tonic, Alternative and anti-bious

The most interesting event OF the day is the
arrival of Minister BurGngame and the Chinese
Embassy, in the steamer Arizona. The en-
bassy Consists Of thirty-two persons. Chih
Tapen and Sun Tagen, both mandarins OF the
second rank, and accredited as ministers to the
various treaty powers; thea there are Six stu.
dents, two Of whom speak English with great
fluency; two French, two Russian, and TWO
Chinese scriveners; one Chinese doctor, ana
on arrival, drove up to the Westminster Hotel,
IN Irving Place, where they will tarry until they
leave for Washington. The City Councils have
appointed special committee to extend to the
strangers, on behalfof the metropolis, the cour-
tesies due to their rank and station.
The feeling among the Democratic leaders
here, since the nomination OF Grant and ColfaX,
is strongly in favor Of the ticket recently aiud-
ed to as being most in favor with the Manhat-
tan Club, namely-for President, Senator Hen
bricks, OF Indiana; for Vice-P President, Governor
English, of Connecticut, or Mayor Hoffman, OF
New York. It ia conceded on all hands that
the first place on the ticket will have to be con-
ceded to Western man, and that man, after
AIR. Pendleton and General Hancock receive
the proper compliment Of the preliminary inef-
fectual baIloting, will be the senator alluded to.
Holman for Yice-President, Belmont, Peter
Caeger, Peter B. Sweeney aud the rest Of them
say, viii keep the Empire State in the Demo
cratic lines.
The Republicans concede that, to carry New
York teyen with Grant), much hard work will
be necessary-and, to that end, it is UNDER
stood the General Committee is going to work
at once to hold public meetings in every diree-
tion. The Finance Committee have an abund-
ance of cash at their comman1-and cash is
the sinews of war. The Democrats, as regards
that yery useful material, are not in 80 fortu-
nate nate position; but what they lack in cash
they make up in confidence.
