Limitation IN the Act Of March II,
1s63.-The following Report OF an imp"r-
tant case, of which the telegraph gave but
an outline, appears in the Washington Re
publican Of the 1st:
In the case of the United States against
Anderson, the United States Supreme
Court Yesterday decided that the Limitation
in the captured and abandoned property
act, requiring all suits TO recover the pro-
ceeds of property seized.a and sold belonging
to loyal persons. t. be commenced within
two wears from the close of the rebellion
did not refer to the suppression of the re.
belion. in any particular locality where
loyal claimants might reside, but apriied
to the entire suppression OF the rebellion
throughout the country. 1t IS thought
TO be impossible that the intention Of Con-
gress was that any claimant living in a DIS
trict where the rebellion had been sup
pressed, must sue within two wears from
the date thereof, but that it was the maj
termination Of the. war was meant. On
that question the court says it is from
that it was contemplated oy Congress that
some official declaration of the fact should
be made and that it was not intended that
the people should be left to determine the
date for themselves, and to proceed with
their claims acco, dinghy. Tie act OF
March 2, 1867, reco izing the close Of the
war to be the date of the Presidents proc
lam ton to that end, august 20, 1860
Is accepted as conclusive on that point, and
that date is held tonbe the date when the
rebellion was suppressed for all public and
private purposes. The executive ana leg
~islative branches Of the Government having
united on the date, it is accepted as the
actual and proper n by the judiciary.

PALTNGENESIS.
By MRS. NJ. o. WILLIAMS.

O snow drops peeping from messy beds,
Violets starring the cold brown earth,
Teach We the folded heart of the rose.
Lessons ye kept through the winters deartAt
White clouds drifting DER peaceful blue
Rosy sunrise, and purple eyes,
Color, and warmth, like a rising nush'
Into the cold gray landscape "eaVes,
Pictures of beauty, and love, and hope,
The soul of Nature in pulSlng lines
Of cloud, and perfumes and tender hues;
Snatched from the frost by the mild sunshines
Thou blest Evangels of Natures love
Read me the lessons of Spring once more
How the earth and hearts grow cold, and YET
Hold hidden warmth of the sunny yore.
What can we miss, that shall come no more,
Winter is never the lord OF all
He heaps bis mountains of snow, but still
Lii. awakes at the Springs first call.
Life in the flower, in stream. in tree,
Life in souls that were numbed by cold;
Over and over again we see So,
The snow-drifts melt, and the rose untold
Over and over the crimson Junes
Ripen-t the grain for the harvest sheat,
Over and over the wild west wind
Scatters the gold of the Autumn leaf.
The shadows come, and the shadows 60,
Drifts of the rosy apple blooms,
Kindle the sword where the dead leaves lie
And lipht is born to the thickest gloom.

sit is a work of supere'ogation to praise
Appleton or, in other words, APLEIoNs
JOURNAL. We are inclined to believe there
has never appeared IN American pnbIica
that has strengthened its hold upon the
American reader so rapidly as this ever
welcome periodical. Criticise it closely,
~analyze it with microscopic minnteness,
and it is hal div possible to ind a flaw
or an imperfection in any department.
We may be pardoned for a disposition to,
pass strong encomiums upon 'Appleton,,,
when We announce hat we have enjoyed
the luxury Of a quiet perusal ofthe eleventh
monthly issue, SO rich in literary matter, so
entertaining and instructive, and w'!hal
so gorgeous in i'll -strationS. The first class
editorial supervision of 'Appletons" to be
sure, warrants the careful and critical rea-
der in his great expectations, and ne, with,
out doubt, would feel keenly disappointed
if the viands furnished him anything short
of a feast of reason and not the least in
vitine of these viands, which so tempt the
senses, are the superb engravings, etc, al,
luded to, which must add enormously to the
cost of the work, Tut expense seems not to
have been taken into account by the liberal
and enterprising publishers. Literature,
Science, and Art are given to the subscri,
bers in their highest character, at the
mice of ten cents each weekly number,
four of which make up the splendid Feb,
ruary monty. which is a fair specimen OF
what each subscriber receives for n en-
tire year. We cannot refrain from ex-
pressing our profound admiration for
Appleton and say to our readers that it
should be a weekly ~visitant to their homes,
and have a prominent place on their parlor
eentretables."
