THE Lynchburg Republican, after let.
ting off whole battery of canister, grape
shell, and solid shot at the STATE JOUR
NAL, contents itself with very small pop
gun in rejoinder to our reply. There is no
necessity for the Republican to "bastardize
its own revolving offspring" The hideous
issue of revolt, which it would have nour-
ished into life, was disposed of by the
Cesarian method" long before the pa
ternity Of the !" fictitious child ~ was likely
to be owned by anybody. There is no
such thing as bastardizing an issue that is
not only entirely abortive before birth, but
that is as
Nipped with the tagging rear OF waters
frost"
as the Republicans revolving offspring /"
was, in the spring of 1865. We can encour-
age our contemporary in any becoming
manifestation of grief over its bewailed
offspring, but it should get over this little
baby funeral of its own, before it goes TO
fiinging accusations about "bastard issuesu
at the heads of others.

sDACK-LOG STUDIES"

In this unique series of papers, now appearing
in SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY, Mr.. Warner, ari-
thor OF MY Summer in n Garden is doing his
best work. Here we haye-in q pleasant fiction
OF talking group in front of an old fashioned
country back-log-philosophi suggestion, sar-
casm that smiles, not sneers, bright bits of de-
scr1ption, social out-looks-and, enlivening all, a
fresh. crisp, yet juicy'' and delicious humor.
BACKLOG STUDIES have been quickly APP
preciated by the press. The New York Times
says that these sketches, "for light, airy, but
genuine delineations of character, have rarely
been surpassed by any writer of the present
day" The Boston Transcript says that 'tior
delicacy Of tonch, quaint sentiment, and quiet
humor, BACKLOG STUDIES are the best of
things in their way The Nation thinks that
BACKLOG STUDIES No. III "renews and
increases the evidence given in his previous pei
formances that we have in him a humorist of
real merit" Writing of one of these papers
the N. Y. Mail says it is the ''best thing he has
written, and the best thing in its way any
American or English magazine has had for many
day." and the Boston Commercial Bulletin
says: "BACK-LOG STUDIES constitute de
cided hit in magazine literature" Another of
these delightful papers will appear in the April
number of SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY, which

THE New York Times has scathing re-
view of Mr.. Summers speech, in which it
shows that what is not new in it is not
true, and that what is new is also not true.
We remarked that it was exceedingly I'M
fortunate for the great Massachusetts vitu-
perator, that no one of all the forty millions
of people in the United States, save only
Mr.. Sumner himself, should ever have
heard a lisp from Mr.. Stanton on the sub
.ject Of the only new matter in his speech.
TO show that Mr.. Summers version Of the
extraordinary interview he had with
the dying eX-Secretary Of War, was
not only more highly colored than
dramatic, and more imaginary than
real, the Times produces extracts from
the speeches made by Mr.. Stanton, dur
ing the campaign of '6s, in which he re-
fers in the highest terms eff eulogium to
General Grant, specifically naming him,
over and over again, as "General Ulysses
S. Grant" Now, Mr.. Sumner has either
egregiously fibbed, Or else Mr.. Stanton died
with lie on his lips-to help Sttn,1aer out
in aprospectage quarrel acih the President
Mr.. Sumner may daub until the canvas
is as blue as the cerulean wall of the sky
itself, and to this complexion only will 1t
come. lie must own up to piece of I'M
considerable tibbipg or brand his dying
authority as oblivious of all truth IN the al
legged premises.
The fact is, Mr.. Summers spitclul har-
rangue was fearful Senatorial blunder.
Aside from its ineflable egosm-ils ipsissi-
mus ipse pretensions and quality through
outfits constant spirits Of spite damn it
beyond the hope of retrieval.
I'm noble minds some dregs remain,
Not yet purged off, of spleen and sour disdain.n
But in Mr.. Summers mind no dregs re-
main-he purges his entire bile, latent spite
and all, in an effort to relieve his stomach,
in splay-mouthed billiousness, upon the
head of General Grant. He makes
'of medtative spleen grateful FEAST
and turns his whole milt into a reservoir of
hypochondrium, to be discharged at once
through the splirting fascets of his oratory.
There is such thing as damning another
with Saint praise" but the most eflectual
way to damn ones self is to make four
hours speech after the fashion of Charles
Sumner.

THE TREATY.

The latest intelligence indicates that the
British Government, brought face to face
with the issue, shrinks from the respos i
bility of overthrowing the Alabama treaty.
The dispatch of Lord Granville, while dis
senting from the supplemental article in its
amended form, expresses the belief that an
agreement may be reached and asks for
time to this end. This is a better and
more hopeful tone. 1t signifies that the
British Government realizes the obloquy
which will attach to u reputation of the
treaty without the most conclusive reasons.
What course our Government will pursue
remains TO be seen, but there is reviving
hope that the negotiation may be saved,
