From Washington.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Stanton vacat-
ed the War Office yesterday.
Parties complying with the amnesty
proclamation of September were register
ed yesterday. This concession adds con-
siderably to the white vote.
The keys of the War Department are
still with General Thomas. a,a
1t is stated that Grant favors Scho6eld's
confirmation. r
In Executive session the Senate referr-
ed Schofeld's nomination to committee.
Revenue to-day $829,000.
There are rumOrs of Cabinet changes
Chief Justice Chase having assented to
June Sd as the day for the commence
ment of Davis trial, if impeachment had
finished by that time, it is understood to-
day that the trial will certainly take place
then.
WASHINGTON, May 28.-The registra-
tion shows 4,0l5 majority for the whites
Many were stricken from the lists on ac-
count of defective amnesty papers-appli-
cants presenting the amnesty oath instead
of the certificate from the State Depart
ment that the oath was filed as the law re-
'quires.
Persons holding personal pardons from
the President, or proper amnesty papers,
found no difficulty.
The proper routine is to mail the orig
inal oath to Seward, who, retaining the
original oath, will return the proper GER
tiiicate.
Replying to Townseud's application to
be relieved from the War Office perplex-
tiles, the President said he had no new
orders to issue. He had issued orders
some months since. The business of the
War Office was stopped.
The Senate discussed Schofeld's nomi-
nation. The difficulty lies in the verb
iage, which reads, "vice Stanton removed"
A bill was introduced, extending the
time for the completion of the Southern
Pacific Railroad, also bill reducing the
interest Of the public debt.
Arkansas admission came up. Drake,
radical, opposed admission until the four
teenth article becomes part of the fun
damental law, maintaining .tlat twenty
eight States were required to ratify, and
that Ohio and New Jersey had the right
to recall their assent. Drake added,
"There was no hurry. We have done
without these States for seven years and
can do without them seven months more"
The Senate went into Executive Session
and adjourned.

ILLUMlNATIoN-As we write, hund-
red joyous candles are throwing their
gleeful light from the windows of the
Press and Herald block upon the more
Joyous throngs on Gay street, who are iu-
terchanging solutions and congratulations
upon the glorious victory of the day.
The Post Office front is also aglow with
patriotic light,
But the most brilliant display of the
evening is to be seen at the front of the
"Star Billiard Saloon" building. John
Scherf has tastily blended the national
colors with the bright glare of the sterine.
and his windows present one of the hand
somest scenes ever witnessed on Gay stree.

a Dcspicab1e Wretch.

Old 10, Brown, of Georgia, seems to
have been the lion of the black-and tan
Convention at Chicago, He was feted and
applauded as he had never been before
The patriots pressed him to their bosoms
and annointed hum as one of the "truly
loil," in whose hands the interests Of ''the
best government the world ever saw
would be entirely secure.
This, according to radical ethics, was
eminently proper. 10. Brown is the same
individual who, as Governor of Georgia,
was the first man in the South to lay vio-
lent hands upon United States shipping
When the Government caused the seizure
of arms and other munitions of war in the
city of New York, designed for rebel SER
vice, Brown valiantly ordered the seizure
of all the shipping in Savannah harbor,
belonging to the Government or citizens
of the North, by way of retaliation-and
this was done, too, before Georgia seeded.
There was no measure too fierce for him.
He hated and denounced and cursed the
Government, and everybody and every
thing Northern. He was a constant
source of terror to every Northern born
citizen of Georgia, and to escape his ven-
geance, hundreds, at the sacrifice of bust
ness and property, fastened from his
realm in quest Of security. The intensity
of his hate and the reckless violence Of
his proscriptive measures were subjects of
complaint even among original secession
lists. A man of Northern birth was un-
worthy of employment even on the State
Road. The forbearance of jeff. Davis
was his plague by day and his torture by
night. He was miserable man because
he had not fricasseed Yankee for each
meal. The black flag was entirely too
pale for him-he wanted more suggest
i've one-a deep, blood-red one. The
black is now his favorite-he proposes to
raise it against the white people of his
own State

INTEMPERANcE.-An Incorporate man
was on his death bed. He sent to pro-
fessor of religion and said to him. "Do
you remember being at certain temper
ance meeting! l was there. went for
the purpose of sigaing the pledge. When
it was circulated kept my eye on you.
l thought you knew more about these
things than did, and if it were good
thing you would give your name and join
it. But you did not and for that
reason 1 did not: And here l am. 1 am
about to die, and want you to prepare
to meet me in the judgment"
These words went like dagger to that
professors heart, aud they should pierce
the heart of every one protesting godli-
ness who stands aloof from the temper
anee cause. Every one has influence, and
that influence should be on the side of vir-
tue and piety, on the side of God and re-
ligion. We should not only avoid the
appearance of evil, but do all the good in
our power. And in this view we should
be mindful of our example and influence.
Actions speak louder than words. Be
right and do right.-.am Messenger.
