The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1870-01-03

The New York papers publish the intro
ductory chapter of Mrs. sTowE,s new book.
1t is plea of justification. She calls the
editors and writer's Of this country her bro
theirs and sisters, and pleads with them for
justice to herself and Lady BYRON. She
says she has not read the articles which
have been published denouncing her, and
does not remember word of any of them.
The latter statement is not very singular
fact, provided the former be fact at all.
Now, we suggest to tho American public
what we are confident the English public will
do-that they be as kind to Mrs. Stowe az
she has been to her censors, and 30 refuse
to buy or to read her book. Thus will JUS
tice be done all round.
What Mrs. SrowE's revelations will con-
sist of may be inferred from the following
extract taken from letter written from
Rome to the New York World:
~ was last night told, by a person who
is thoroughly an fat of all the story of
Lord Byron's life, that Mrs. Stowe I'M
doubtedly would publish come new exposi-
tion of the nasty story which she has taken
in to nurse, and that in the said exposition
she would pretty certainly set forth for the
inspection of her fellow-writers what pur-
ports to be, and is by her very possibly be-
lieved to he, an original letter written by a
woman claiming to he the daughter of Lord
byron and OF Augusta Leigh"

Raconc tr,1CtiOn,


The scheme, redolent Of the loaves and
fshcs, for reconstructing Virginia, which
was credited to the moderate Republicans
n few days ago, is repudiated by the State
Journal on their behalf. We quote:
$50 far as the State Central Committee
of the Republican party is concerned,
there ia no truth in the statement. The
committee has had no meeting on the sub
iect, framed or endorsed no bill at all, and
made no recommendation to Congress. Ihe
position of that committee has been to ask
the prompt admission Of the State; to leave
the terms Of admission to the wisdom OF
Congress and to accept and support the
legislation Of Congress, whatever it may be.
ave believe it is true that a somewhat
prominent secessionist of Petersburg has
drawn some such bill as is indicated in the
,elegrapbic paragraph above; that he has
submitted 1t to several prominent Republic
cans in this city who have approved it and
forwarded it to General Butler; but ii is
not true that the State Central Republican
Committee alluded to has had anything to
do with ouch bill and we think we haz-
ard nothing in saying that we do not be-
lieve they will have anything to do with 1t.
"In making this denial, which we do with
the hand of one of the committee, we do
not mean to intimate any objection to the
project. That must stand or fall upon it's
own merits, in detail and as whole, OF
which we and the committee are as yet ig-
norant."
The scheme alluded to was the one for
electing judges, &C., before asking admis-

Mr.. Stanton.

Whit we said last week about Mr. STAN
ToS-namely, that he ruled MIR. LTNcoLS's
Cabinet, and dwarfed oil its members by
contrast except AR. CHAsE--is fully con-
flrmed by DoN PIsTT, staunch Republi-
can. He writes:
"Mr Stanton, during the four years OF
deadly strife between the southern States
and the Government was the Administra-
ton. If we except Chief Justice Chase, no
trace Of other master minds can be found
in Washington. Mr.. Lincoln, the President,
became mere fgure-hcad, quaint and orig
inal, but nothing more. His vacillating,
compromising nature gave way before the
indomitable will and force of character in
the Secretary"
Again:
HThere was but one man In the Cabinet
who held his own when brought in contact
with the Secretary Of War, and that was
Salmon P. Chase, Secretary Of the Urea
Sury. If anything, Mr.. Chase was the
superior, for, in addition tothe same quail
ties TINT made Stanton famous, be had
patience that held his indomitable will in

ualist Mr.. HOME has charmed life; how
he elongatcs his person at will; how in
visible piansts attend him, and Invisible
drinkers stand near him. We are surprised

were performed by the only Divine Being
the world hns ever seen. To call these
utterly useless, or worse than useless,
tricks the work Of spirits, is to charge the

may be sure they have not O Divine origin,
and VIC may therefore safely leave them to
the jugGlers.
