The ex-COnfedcrate soldiers residing in
Louisville have published small brocLurc Of
some iorty-ive pages, i'm memory of the late
Gen. Robert +. Ice, which is well printed and
embeii~hrd with a fine portrait Of thcir old
commander aud a representation of the house
where he was born. 1t consists Of tributes
paid by the citizens of Louisville in Public
meeting, in the press, and in funeral services
The spirit which prompted such an Offering
none can censure. However much we NAV de-.
pIore the fatal mistake which dimmed the lus-
ter OF an otherwise noble life, there is no one
who does not admire the personal qualities for
which Gen. lee was distinguished; and it is
this respect for him as a man rather than as a
leader and representative of misguided and
lost cause which in the main finds expression
in this chaplet to his memory. " !. Tri-

CoNGREss.-Not much of general interest
has been done in Congress since our last. The
Senate on Tuesday ordered conference COM
mittee on the bill to repeal the income tax,
which had been returned from the House as
a measure which the Senate had no right to
originate. 1t is stated that the Committee Of
Ways and Means, of the House have voted to
report bill to repeal this tax. Senator Sauls-
bury shocked the Senate several times last
week by his drunken conduct. Resolutions
have been introduced commencing the suffering
poor of France to the American people, recon-
mendng that the generous sympathy of organ
lied charity be speedily inaugurated for their
relief, and asking the President to detail
frst-class war vessel to carry over such supplies
as may be furnished by the people of the
United States Mr.. Edmunds of the Senate has
also introduced bill for the federal registra-
ton of voters in all the States One of the
most important bills was that passed on
Wednesday, in the House, to enable honor
ably discharged soldiers and sailors and widows
and orphans to acquire homesteads, l60 acres,
on the public lands, in the territories, provided
they become actual settlers upon the land.
The House has passed the Senate bill repeal
ing the test-oath-yeas ll8, nays, SO. The
"land grabbers" are taking up much of the
time trying to induce the government to give
away all its land to help various railroads. &c

Again Senator Salisbury has been acting
unseemly in his seat in the Senate, and again
the State is subjected to ridicuie and reproach
by his disgraceful conduct. In as much as he
has but q short time to stay there, it was hoped
he would spare his constituents and the body
of which he is a member further notification
but as this hope is blasted the only cousola-
ton left us is the reflection that he has but
about three more weeks to disgrace the State
On Thursday last resolution was offered
by Mr.. Pomeroy, Of VT, in reference to suf-
fering France. Mr.. s. charged that the res
olution was so utterly ungrammatical as to be
disgrace to the Senate, and moved a recon-
sideraton. The report says: Upon the mo-
tion to reconsider, Mr.. Salisbury gave the
only affirmative vote, throwing both of his
arms wildly in the air, and causing his col
league, Mr.. Bayard, to bow his head in
shame" On two other occasions during the
week he brought the blush to the cheek of
his associates.
Who is responsible for this, Mr.. Salisbury
or his party? Mr.. S. s habit seems now a mis-
fortune because it is uncomfortable. His party
knew this and yet returned him, aud would
have returned him again had there not been
another eligible Salisbury. Therefore what
his conduct in the mildest possible terms) is a
fault in the party.

Whereas, Some Of the most important rail
roads chartered by the government of this
State, for the promotion of the interests of its
citizens generally, have gone from under the

q boy named Dennis Sullivan, adopting
him US his ywn. The boy is now about 10
years of age. On Sunday forenoon he at
tended church, and at noon he called at the
post-ofiico for Mr.. Whitney's mail, which
he took, and 1t Is supposed started for home I;
but not arriving, towards night Mr.. Whit
ney and wife became alarmed at his nom
appearance, gave the alarm, and he and his
neighbors searched the hills, pastures and
woodlands till near midnight. The next
morning Mt O o'clock the church bell was
rung, horns were blown, and friends and
neighbors collected to renew the search,
which was very thorough and continued
through the day, but without avail. Near
night Mr.. Whitney went to the railroad
depot at Brattleboro, where h0 learned that
a ful-looking boy, answering TO the
description of the lost child, was observed
by the agent at the depot at an early hour
in the morning. All further trace of the
boy is lost It Is believed by most of the
citizens of this place that foul play has been
used, and that the boy is Kidnapped. He
is a very quiet lad, and always appeared TO
be much attached to the family he was liv-
ing with, and they to him.

Having no election of their own to occu-
Ply their attention, the people of Vermont
may be excused for taking more than their
usual interest in the political affairs of their
neighbors. In Massachusetts the Republic
can State Convention is to be he'd at Wor-
cester Sept. 9th, and the presence Of Eve
different candidates for the gubernatoral
Office is making things unusually lively.
If Gen. Butler rests his hopes upon secur-
ing the Republican nomination, his chanc-
es must be regarded as exceedingly slim.
Not single newspaper, so far as we have
observed, has named him rs its first choice (;
while nearly all the most influential Jour-
mails are unqualified in their announcement
of his course. OF the other candidates
Messrs. Jewell and Rice of Boston, Dr..
l. oring of Salem, and VIM. b. Washburn
of Greenfield,--it is as yet impossible to
Il ct ermine which is destined to secure the
coveted nomination. The Democratic Con-
vention is to he held at Springfield next
week, when John Quincy Adams will
p robably be nominated again. Should
Butler fail in receiving the nomination at
w orcester, he will doubtless run as indie
pendent candidate; and in that case the
Democrats may find it in their power, ms il
would be for their interest, to turn in and
whip their opponents by electng Butler.
We await with interest the action of the
Republican convention.
