GRANTS VIEWS OF AMNEsTY.-In
one Of his latest messages to Congress,
President Giant uses the following just
language;
~ d. not see the advantage or propri-
priety Of excluding men from office mere
~ because they We're before the rebellion
of character and standing sufficient to
be- elected to positions requiring them to
take 0athS to support the Constitution,
and admitting to eligibility those enter
tanning precisely the same views but of
less standing in their communities. 1t
may be said that the former violated an
oath, while the latter did not. The latter
did not have it in their power to do So
If they had taken this oath it cannot be
doubted they would have broken it as
did the former class. Ii there are any
great criminals, distinguished above all
others for the part they took in oppoSi-
tlon to the Government, they might, in
the judgment of Congress, be excluded
from this amnesty. This subject is sub
mittrd for your careful considerations -
The condition of the Southern States is,
uhhappi v, not such rs all true patriotic
citizen, would like To see. Social o>tra-
cisn for opinions sake, personal violence
or threats towards persons entertaining
po itical views opposed to those entertain
ed by the majority of the old citizens,
prevent immigration and the flow of
much needed capital into the States late
lv in rebellion, 1t will be happy CON
dition of the country when the old citi-
zenS of these States will take an interest
in public affairs. plomugate ideas hon
estly entertained, vote for men rrpreSent-
ing their views and tolerate the same
freedom of expression and ballot in those
entertaining different political convic-
tions."
These sentiments were expressed, not
for tho sake of political effect upon the
country but officially, in the form of a
recommendation to the law making DOW
er Of the country. There may be those
who think that lehiency for political of
fences should go yet farther than this,
but we are not of them. The policy of
forgiveness of wrongs is one often attend
ed with good results but if we declare
wrong to be right it is another thing.

DoUBLED.-The price of coal in Eng
land is just now double what it was a
year ago, and it has not been occasioned
by n corner in coal. Sir William Arm
strong says a shout was raised against
him when he stated not many years ago,
that the supply of coal would one day be
nearly exhausted. We do not of course
believe that the day has now come, or
that we shall see it during our lives; but
it is no doubt true that with the increasing
depth Of the coal mines and the increas-
ing demand for coal for use in iron and
all other branches of mnnu acture, the
piice of coal is following the same course
as IT the mines were ON the eve Of exhaus-
tion,

GREELEY AT PORTLAND.

Mr.. Greeley is an eccentric old gentle
man, and although his admirers have
persuaded him to silence his pen, yet
"out of the iullness of his heart the
mouth <peaketh," land they cannot silence
his tongue. At Potland Mr.. Greeley
was given reception and seized the oc-
casion as fitting to make bid for the
votes of those Democrats who were not
di,posed 10 support him.
He recognized the fact that candidate
for President should make no speeches,
but evidently thought his owh nomina-
ton an event ot such importance us to
justi va departure from all rules and
precedents. Poor Horace has not yet
been a-ked for Cabinet appointments, or
anything Of that nature, but certain in
cipient Nasbys have ventured to hint
him upon the subject of signing "P.
NJ" after their names, which over
lures the good old man has repelled with
scorn. In the distribution of public Of
fees, Democrats are to share, which, ms
Horace is n "civil service reformer," 4"
must not be construed as meaning that
he will turn competent Republicans out
to make room for untried Democrats.
And rs Horace argues against the two
term principle on the ground that the
President can dispose of the Federal pat
ronage 10 secure n denomination, it looks
wrong to US that the good old man
should try to blibe the recalcitrant Dem
ocrnts to his support by promising re-
WAL ds in advance. But there is n paral-
lei to this case in Holy Writ, and III. G..
is just about as safe in making promises
rs the Devil was. He has not been
sounded" on the subject Of paying the
rebel debt nor pensioning rebel soldiers,
and in the excitement of the occasion
forgot to say whether he would approve
or dtsapprove of measures Of that kind.
He WAS heavy on the g carpet baggers !"
who, with the " scallawags" and niggers
form the Republican element ofthe South,
leaving us to infer that he still advises
people to "go West" considering that
South of Mason & Dixon's line is part
of the country where Northern men have
no business. It's comfort to know that
after the 4th of March everything, will be
lovely. Poor Horace.

THE OGDEN MAIL RoBBERY.-In yes
terday's Chronicle was published II tcle

THE arrival at New York of the steam
ship Aridane from Rotterdam, as the ad-
vance guard of new line of ocean steam
ers between New York and the Neither
lands, is hailed with delight 5y the news
papers of that city. 1t is singular fact,
but true, that the Ariadne is the first
Dutch steamship that ever entered the
port of New York. 1t is little wonder
that the commercial people of Manhattan
are jubilant.

THE OVERLAND MONTHLY FOR SEP
TEMBER.-This number opens with Joa-
quin Miller's narrative poem, entitled
" Isles of the Amazons !" the first part,
consisting of ninety-nine stanzas, opening
with an exquisite little lyric of eight lines.
The poem certainly has considerable
merit, and the interest is well kept up,
the anxiety of the reader hinging on the
conduct OF the Amazons toward the sup
posed woman, so Unexpectedly found in
their midst.

beautiful canary that sings all the day
