lures, heroic and handsome, lost none
of that amiable sweetness of express
sion which, even in his case, trained
to the field, spoke for the courtier far
more than for the soldier. We noted
that his skin was fair, ford and
healthy, announcing sufficient stami-
ma, could he escape from toll and So
ctety, for perfect regeneration. The
grace, ease and simplicity of his man.
ner We're a charm in every eye; and
even the few sentences which it was
permitted to him to speak, were all
so many tones of fascination to the
eager nj that bent forward to listen.
Among the visitors present, we
noted two of the Secretaries of Presi-
dent Davis cabinet, the HOnOrabIes
Messrs. Memminger and Trenholm;
and the Hon. Judge Bryan, District
Judge OF the United States, did not
conceive it inconsistent with his
loyalty to do reverence to the great
man in seclusiOnl His classical
studies alone would keep him from
such slavish disregard to genuine he
roism. He well knows, as well as
any man, that
'More true pride, Marcellus, exiled, feels,
Than Caesar, with a Senate at his heels!'
But the tributes Of the ladies were
even more prOfuse than those of the
gentlemen. Very beautiful was the
collection, and it spelled the eye and
charmed the senses of the veteran.
He remarked:
ut is SO grateful TO see so much
elasticity among your people; and l
am aStOnished to see Charleston so
wondrously recuperated after all her
disasters"
Very wonderful More wonderful,
if he had known ALL; but our people
have a fine elastic capacity for spring
ing up erect, even under the tread of
tyranny! AS was said by the brave
Carolina lady in the Revolution, when
the British officer asked her why the
Chdln0mae was called the "Rebel
Flower" she promptly replied:
because 1t grows the more vigor-
Ously the more it is trodden upon.n
So let us rise! We have the hearts
and the souls! eve ARE \ PEOPLE
YETI"
General Lee felt all this when he
made the remark. He left us yester-
day for he. We rejoice that we
have e him; that we have heard
the benign tones of his voice; that we
have felt the pressure of his handsi
May the good God protect him where
he goes; restore him to his home, and
to that repOse and health which are
all that he requires. Enough for him
that his record here on earth is that
of the hero; unstained by selfshness-
no mercenary-one devoted to his
country and his country's good-one
whose hOpOred memory will never be
forgotten among brave and true peo-
pies, while patriotism and virtue still
survive the bayOnetl
We must not omit to record the de-
licious music of the bands of the fire
companies, which succeeded to the
reception, or rather blended with it.
1t was the spontaneous tribute of
three thousand souls, speaking with
out concert, the common language of
reverence and affection.

A REPORT having gained currency
that the recent conference of editors
at Washington had proposed an indie
pendent political party, to be COM
posed of Western Republicans and
Democrats, the correspondent of the
COUrieT-JOunal telegraphs to contra
dict it, and denies especially that any
Democratic member of Congress has
given in his adhesion to such a
purpose. The correspondent says:
4" While a reform party was talked of
by the Western Republicans, who are
dissatisfied with the extravagant ex-
penditures and burdensOme taxation
maintained by a Radical Congress,
they did not put their views into shape
by resolution or otherwise, while it
was very evident that the Demo-
Gratis would refuse any such CO.
alition. The latter declare that
they are making just as good a record
on behalf Of the revenue reforms in
the House as they desire, and that the
Republicans have come over and
voted with them to reduce the pend
ing tariff TO a revenue standard, and
to Tighten the weight of internal taxa
ton. Some of tine prominent Demo-
Gratis in the House state that most of
the contest is yet TO come; and, if Mr..
Boutwell, insists on reducing the pub
lie debt one hundred millions a year,
the struggle will be to defeat his policy
and cut down taxation. In view of
this, it is believed there is no neces-
sity for the formation OF an independ-
ent or so-called renenue reform party,
at least within the Democratic ranks"

WE are more governed by the law
Of force than we think. The reason
of the doctrine that majorities shall
rule is that majorities have the power
to rule. Despotisms, like Republics,
are based on the idea of consent of the
people. What is not reason is force.
The minority may have both the
wisdom snd the right, but those alone
fall short Of the growing power. Men
bow down without question to what
is called parliamentary law, because
il is intuitively perceived that rules
which have grown up by common con-
sent cannot be ignored without anar-
chy. Henceadebatingc club, society, a
political or church meeting, or even a
council of outlaws will instinctively
obey the parliamentary" rules to
escape from confusion and anarchy.
We were struck with this thought
yesterday in looking on upon a body
of intelligent and eminent divines,
who were in consultation for a reli-
gious purpose. They discussed and
inquired after a law which was founded
in the necessity of organization and
obedience to the will of MAORI
ties; and which, thus founded
in force, had its existence from
the time "whereOf the memory
of man runneth not to the contrary"
1t was not their discipline" their
book of constitutions, their organic
law, except as entering into all law.
We may for a day depart from such
parliamentary law, as we do from the
undying principles, hOary with age,
which are the essence and ground
work Of free constitutions. But we
shall get back to them in one form or
another as the necessity OF liberty
license, as essential to order
and justice of administration under
all forms.

A CALL for a Republican caucus has
been made bv Morton and others OF
the Senate for the purpose of laying
down some platform to harmonic the
party on the tariff question. Our tele-
grams of this morning bring the in
formation. The tariff is to be the
great issue in the next presidential
eampaign-the West and South
against the East-and the leaders see
that the issue cannot be evaded. Hence
they are not only divided, bntin trepi-
dalton. And the truth is they are
without remedy. There is nc hope
for them. 1t will be found impossible
to harmonic in one party the repre-
sentatives of two sections whose inter
ests clash so seriously in an antagO-
nism of the purse. The East must
remain a stipendiary of the country,
or its manufactures will rot down.
The East lives by the tariff, and, like
the raven, cries give, give, the more
it is pampered and fed, and grows
more imbecile for selfsuppOrt the more
it is nOurished rs a stipendiary. But
the West must foot the bill-its farm
ers, stock-grOwers, mechanics and la
bOrers must pay two prices for every
manufactured article they consume.
Heretofore they have lived in hope.
Deprecated currency has given prices
to their products nominally high
enough, and they have been salts
fed. But reduction of the currency
to gold, without more than cor
responding reduction Of the prices
Of their staples, alters the case,
and an absolute depression of
prices to a hundred per cent. all
of a sudden has opened their
eyes. They are beginning to think,
that, with wheat at fifty cents, they
cannot afford to buy silks and whisky
at three dollars, or coffee and sugar at
fifteen to twenty cents. They are
unwilling to pay for goods, which can
be imported to them for one dollar,
two, three or five. And 50 they are
beginning to think fast about the cost
Of supporting the New England pol
icy, and have serious thought of set
ting up for themselves.
The Republican party of the North
must inevitably divide on the tariff
question. Nothing can harmonic it
hort of harmOnizing the interests of
he East and West, which is impossi-
BE. We dc not believe the Radical
,Ower tCE control the West or the
'Outh on the tariff subject will last
Ong. The South has the same in
crest with the West-tO buy in the
heapest market and sell in the dear
stand it would be strange if the
Outh and the West should not stand
Ogether. Even earpet-bag misrepre-
entation cannot long stop that.

An extra sheet of the Little Rock
Gazette contains a letter from George
c. Watkins, published originally in
1856. In this paper we have curious
historical facts affecting the original
location Of the Memphis and Little
Rock Road. The leading idea of the
paper is found in the assertion that
the Cairo and Fulton and Memphis
and Little Rock roads should have
found a common line from White
river to Little Rock. An editorial of
the Gazette, prehxed to the disauisi-
ton Of Mr.. Watkins, states that the
American Land Company, 50 called.
who were spectators in town lots AT
DuvalPs Bluff and Madison, and in
land supposed to lie at the bottom Of
Lost Swamp, secured control of the
railroad company. The results that
followed are known by all men. The
Gazshe says that in promotion of the
interests Of this land company the
road was so located that for three
months in the year there is water
enough for any steamboat navigating
the Arkansas to start from Madison
and run over every foot Of the rail
road to Memphis" Surely all this is |
an exaggeratiOn Of facts, but the dOcu-
ment from which we quote has been
widely circulated, and some one con-
versant with the history of the unfor-
tunate road should furnish the world
with a truthful story Of its origin and
progress. If a change Of location be
desirable the sooner the preferred
route is adopted the better for share
