The Army of the Potomac.

The Army of the Potomac Association
holds its next annual reunion in Boston,
on the 18th of May next, and we trust
there will be much larger attendance Of
Vermont officers than there has been at
the previous reunions. The occasion will
be one of high interest for every soldier
who belonged to the old Army OF the Po-
tomac Among the public exercises will
be an grafton by Governor Fairchild, of
Wisconsin, and poem by Brett Harte.
There will be grand dinner at the Re-
we're House, and pleasant and inspiring
gathering of comrades in the late war.
Gen. Charles A. Whittier, of the Sixth
Corps Staff who is one of the Executive
Committee of the Association, writes to
Gen. Foster of Burlington, urging full
attendance Of Vermonters, He says
at would be particularly gratifying to
see many representatives Of the "Old
Vermont Brigade" the best brigade in
the army, present at that time. Let those
among you, who have not yet Joined the
Society, do so either before or at the next
meeting. Arrangements will be made
with the railroad companies for reduc-
ton Of fare"
This invitation is of course not confn-
ed to officers of the Old Brigade, but in
cludes all who were attached to the Army
of the Potomac. That it is worth while
to keep alive the associations and friend
ships and memories Of the war, no man
who is proud OF his services as a soldier
of the Union will deny; and there is no
way more agreeable and effective than
these army reunions. Will Vermont
officers remember the 18th of next May,
at Boston?

parts of the country, it combines as many ad-

any other watering place in America The i'm
provements are ample, and no small degree of
taste has been exhibited in the architectural ar
rangement of the buildings. The atmosphere
is pure and exhilirating; the water famous for
its medicinal virtues and as clear as crystal );
the scenery absolutely enchanting, and the spot,
nestled as it is, in narrow valley of the Shen-
andoah mountains. presents to the eye scene
at once striking. and full of poetic interest.
The main topic of conversation among the
visitors is the present condition of the co,;ntrv
and the probable success of the Gemocratic
party in the approaching Presidential election
General Hancock has more friends here than
any other man whose name has been mention
ed in connection with the Presidency. He is
regarded by many persons as being, to some
extent a martyr of military persecution. and
the fact of his being "a bold, skillfuI General
and popular favorite In the State of Penn
ssylvania, seems to point to him as the availa-
BILE coming man Of the future. q
The wheat and corn crops in this section are
in the main healthy and promising, and in spite
of the great curse of the funding system, the
people manage to live after a fashion. %

The preamble to the statute of Anne enacted
about one hundred years ago, under .eircum-
stances in England similar to those of the pres
ent in this country, reads as follows:
Whereas the reducing of interest to ten,
and from thence to eight. and thence to six in
the hundred, has, by experience, been found
very beneficial to trade, and improvement OF
lands; and whereas the heavy burden of the
late long and expensive war hath been chiefly
borne by the owners of the land of this king
dom, by reason whereof they have been neces-
STATED to contract very large debts thereby,
and by the abatement in the value of their
lands, are become greatly impoverished; and
whereas, by reason of the great interest and
profit OF money made at home. the foreign
trade has been neglected. &c.

SLAVE EMANCIPATION IN BRAZIL.
Brazilian government has presented to the
Chambers bill for the emancipation of all
slaves belonging to the Crown. The bill pro-
vides, also that convict slaves are to become
free after seven years imprisonment, their
owners receiving indemnity from the treasury.
The whole scheme, we are told, meets with
strong. opposition. 1t is gratifying to see the
Brazilian government taking the initiative in
this matter. Interested parties, as in our own
experience, will resist. But slavery must fall
if it should tear Brazil in pieces. Spain must
take heed to the example of Brazil On the
American Continent slavery cannot much long

Speeches of Mr.. Davis.

In an article concerning the speeches recent
" made By Mr.. Davis, the Winchester Times
says: n = ~
1.-THE radical press has seized upon his utter
ances and sound ed the alarm Of a new rebel
lion at the South. They. have used these
speeches to fire the Northern heart afresh and
have furnished the enemies of the South new
weapons with which TO harrass and Cypress her.
-By-skillful manmuvering the Northern Democ--
racy had well-nigh succeeded in diverting the
public sentiment Of their section from the vim
dictive issues Of the war. and in putting the
radicals upon the defensive; and the fear is
that these speeches of Mr. Davis have turned
the tables and jeopardized the hopeful prospect
of Democratic triumph in the next Presiden-
tial election. The Seuth5is more interested in
the success of3the Democracy than the North.
Not only our political liberty but our material
prosperity is largely dependent upon it. We
cannot hope for a platform In all respects suit
ed to our views, and we must becontent to fol-
low, not to lead. Whatever faults the North
ern Democracy may have it is the only party
which holds out the faintest hope of return
to constitutional Government They.hav en-
tered the contest to acp and it is because of the
embarrassment to their plans, which Mr.. Da-
Wis speeches have caused that we regret their
delivery. .ed ii5J ezrssfs ,.se,s.ss,s SIS a
But while we regard Mr.. Davis speeches as
ill timed, invieW of the approaching contest for
the possession of the National Government,
upon the result of which hangs the fate of
constitutional liberty in this country, we can
not join in the unfriendly and and denunciato-g
ry criticisms upon his conduct to which some
Of our Southern contemporaries have given ex-
preston. Wehonor the man, and feel assured,
as every liberal minded man must, from care
full perusal of his speeches. that he was hon.
estly endeavoring to give the best advice to his
people. He had right to speak, as much
right as any man at the North or South, and
1T is a shame that that right should be called in
question by any one. But conceding his right
and the soundness of his constitutional views,
we are sorry that he made the speeches.. AS
the honored civil leader of the South. in the
late war, we hoped that he would initiate the
example of the noble Lee and preserve dig
nifed silence, refraining from all political COM
plications and utteranees. and leaving his pso-
pile to pursue the most practicable methods for
the recovery of their suspended rights The
sentiment Of the North is SO bitter against him
that his most discreet public utterances serve
but to exasperate. For this reason we hope
that, in the future, Mr. Davis win consult his
own fame and the true interests Of his section
by keeping aloof from the political arena"
