plasterers Of that city are now on a
strike. They have received an en-.
dorsement from the Plasterers' SOci-
etyaOfa Chicago, with a promise OF two
hundred dollars per week until their
strike is successful. Similar action
has been taken by the Baltimore So

The Times dispatch says: Neither
House will make Alabama an eXeep-
ton to the conditions prescribed In
the Reconstruction Acts. No State
will be admitted without ratification
Of its Constitution by the people, and
Congress will not prescribe a rule Of
suffrage for all the States by Congress
sional enactment. Spalding's sub
stitute for Alabama will probably
pass.
The Herazd's Washington dispatch
says The attorneys in the McCardle
case will attend the Supreme Court
to-day and have some understanding
IN reference to a decision. The cOun-
sci on both sides manifest a DISPOSE
ton to deny that the recent acts of
Congress affects the McCardle case at
all, and it is thought this difference
may lead to further complications and
an altogether new phase of contro-
Versy.

Radical Papers "Plsase Copy

The editor of the Denver Gazette, q
soldier in the army Of the Union, who
fought under Grant, thus alludes to the
great Galena "tanner:
An exchange, reviewing one of our com.
plimentary notices of Grant, says he
tanned the hides of copperheads, rebels,
etc. The exchange alluded to has tackled
the wrong person, with the statistics upon
this subject, by thus criticising our re-
mark. We happened to know Grant before
the war, and while it was going on, when
strange to say, as we are dubbed copper
head" we were in the same military SER
vice as himself, under his command. When
colonel of the 2lst III. Infantry, at Mexico,
he was a raving Democrat. One day he
was in Ringgold's bank, in that city, and
upon being asked if be thought the war
was to be prosecuted for the abolition Of
slavery, he first avowed himself Demo.

such to be the object, but if such were to
be the object of the war, upon being
convinced of the fact, be would resign
his commission in the Federal army and
20 over to the enemy.
We we're at Donaldson, and know that
the only tanning process be INDUCED in
at that place, during the battle, was the
of his innerside with whisky.
He tanned himself in this manner until
he was unable to sit upon bis horse. That
battle was fought by Gen. Smith, and
Grant got the praise. How did be tan
the rebels at Shiloh? We we're there.
On the 9th day of April, 1862, we,
g copperhesd," expended one hundred
and sixty rounds of ammunition shoot
ing at the rebels; our hide was tanned
during the day slightly, however, by rebel
bullets, while the great rebel tanner"
Grant, was down the river ct Ssvan-
nah. When the sun was shedding his
last rays on that bloody days work, we
saw Grant just from below, sneaking off
to transport at Pittsburg Landing. Who
turned the tide of battle the following

was done under the direction of the man
