Tha Grecian Bend.

We had curiosity enough to step into

and examine one of these internal ma.
chimes" 1t is made of linen, and stuffed
with moss, cotton, or hair, and padded
SO as to rest easy, like a saddle-blanket
on a horse. 1t is about sixteen inches
long one way, and about eight or ten
inches the other, and some are thicker
than others, with two tapes attached to
tie them about the body, as you would a
saddle on a horse. One of these panniers
attached to young lady, together with
the new style of dress, is what gives them
the appearance of having the Grecian
bend Louisville Courier.

DIsCoR scandalous quarrels
amongst the more ultra Radicals, their i'm
putations of dishonesty and fraud cast upon
one another with freedom and IMMUNITY
unexampled, are quite significant of the
selfish, rapacious, and corrupt motives by
which they are actuated. g Carpet-bag-
gers" "mere adventures" "copper"
heads" and native 6 scallawags," are cpl
thets used SO freely amongst themselves
that southern men have almost ceased to
use them. The fact is, these gentry have
cast all upon the hazard of chance for Office.
Failure leaves them destitute Of every
thing-of even self-approbation.
The truth is, the whole Radical concern
is so mercenary that there is no trait left
that can command the confidence of one
Radical in another. Personal animosities,
mutual accusations Of treachery, etc., are
altogether natural amongst such men.
Finding nothing in each other to respect,
when they look into their own hearts they
are equally repealed by the deprayity rank
ling there, and may we'll exclaim-
'.Mc, miserable, which way shall fly ~

General PEIRPoINT, in his counterblast
to General SCHoFIELD's speech to the Con-
vention, may be said to be melting sedition
and treason amongst the population subject
to the authority of General S. The iron
clad oath has been declared by him and by
the leading Radicals at Washington to be
utterly impracticable, and yet General
PEIRPoINT pronounces it proper and fit to
be adopted. Is this not disturbing the order
and obstructing the success of reconstruc-
ton and the military government? The
late Governor has assumed the attitude of
belligerent power" and presents his
judgment and advice in contumacious oppo-
sition to those Of the commanding General
of the district. This is open, defiant rebel
lion. 1t may lead to the arrest of the
Ex-Governor and his entire party, to be
tried by Judge UNDERWOOD

The Postponement of the Elections
What it Means.

There ;s Of course much speculation IN =.
the community as to the real meaning =.
General scHoFIELD's order posspohins .Ao
elections until further notice. some per-
sons are uncharitable enough to suppose
.that It was issued because the aenerai lore 10
saw that the Constitution would be defeated.
We imagine there can be little doubt that
he holds this opinion, since ne told the Con-
yention in plain language that such would
he the result. But inasmuch as he also de-
nounced the Constitution itself, 1t is hardly
to be presumed that he is anxious to see it
ratified and his own prediction falsifed.
The want of money is doubtless sufficient
reason for the postponement; yet if this
were the only one, it is likely that the cleo"
ton would take place at the appointed time.
There are doubtless other considerations
which influenced the commanding General !;
and the public curiosity will not be salts
fed or gratifed until further developments
are made.
The most plausible surmise that we have
heard Of, and which we will give to our read
ers in the belief that it is more than half
true, is that General ScHoFIELD knows that
Congress intends to take action in regard to
those features of the Constitution to which
he so strenuously objects. Our new Go
vernon is Michigander, and nothing conia
be more probable than that, like all other r
men, he should say, eve do these things
better in France" In his State the Constr
tuition just rejected was submitted in parts.
The sections of doubtful popularity were
submitted separately, and thus the sense Of
the people was ascertained upon each such
section. Now, either Governor WELLEs or
some one else has induced Congress to try
the same plan in Virginia. The test oaths
will be submitted together, or possibly each
of them separately. The section providing
for the despoiling of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church may also he submitted sepa-
ratcly. So of the humbug homestead fea-
ture. And 80 of any other sections which
may be considered of dubious popularity.
This division of the Constitution and sepa-
rate submission of its parts will, Of course,
bemade in the hope that the body of it, in
Guiding negro suffrage and negro eligibility
to office, will be ratified.
We must give the Radicals credit for e1-
ceeding great cunning. The scheme is we'll
devised. Perhaps it will succeed. If the
question of negro eligibility to Office were
submitted separately, along with the other
questions we have named, there would be
no little probability Of the ratification of
the rest and the rejection of these most
odious features.

as worthy of comment. But Mr.. NELSON,

There has been good deal said about the
Chief Justice voting in the impeachment
trial in case there is tie. The Dispatch
has shown that tie where a majority Of
two-thirds is required is impossible. The
vote needed is t,co against one. One less
than two-thirds cannot possibly be tie,
and two-thirds is conviction. 1t is there
fore nonsense to talk of tie in such case.

Short Road to Charlottesville.

Mr.. KUPER, engineer of the Central rail
road, has been for some days engaged in
surveying part of the route for the short
road from this city to Charlottesville. At
present it is not designed to survey the
whole route. One of the railroad compa-
MES desires connection between the
Fredericksburg road and the dock for the
delivery of coal, and as this connection can
be effected by the proposed line towards
Charlottesville, Mr.. KUPER has been en-
gagged in locating it. He has, however, con-
tinued his labors for q distance of ten miles.
He finds favorable grades for that distance.
The sharpest grade coming towards Rich
mond is twenty feet to the mile, and the
sharpest westward grade is forty feet to the
mile. 1t is believed that these grades will
not be exceeded in the remainder Of the
route. The heavy freights generally being
brought in this direction, it is fortunate that
the eastward grades are SO easy.
