The following letter has appeared in

ROIbuTy, June dear Mr.. Sumner: /
owe it to you TO say with all the frankness
which sober friendship justiies, that have
carefully read your speech in sharp arraign-
ment oi the President, and my conviction
is that it is Ill judged and i'll timed, and so
extravagant in its charges and bitter in its
personalities as to ueutralize whatever Just
criticism can be found. 1t will assuredly
serve the purposes of the worst foes the
cause of impartial freedom has most to fear.
Very many of them, are now rallYing under
the deceptive banner of Liberal Re-
publicanism, but loyal to liberty, upholding
the party with which you have hitherto
proved TO be associated with, viii peruse 1t
with deep regret, if not with unfeigned as
constituent. Certainly, you do not repre-
sent Massachusetts in this sweeping inn
parchment. Her Republican people are al
most unit for the reelection of the man
whom you attempt to stain with crime and
cover with infamy. You cannot separate
Gen. Grant from the party which put him
III blC 4 4IC5AACAoldA CA4eAAig anu HAACn AuCcAAAo
to keep him in it, if possible, another term,
being satisfied as to his ability, integrity
and patriotism; and, therefore, in stigma
tising him as a selfseeker and unscrupu-
lous rsurper, you have virtually pro-
nounced it to be equally corrupt
and untrustworthy, This you have a
right to do on your own responsibility if
you must, but in so doing you will find
yourself for the first time in marked oppo-
sition to the sentiments of Massachusetts as
its Senator in Congress, and surrounded by
allies who have been heretofore your dead
liest enemies. Occupying as do an out
side position, 1 write this not under party
bias and only because feel constrained in
this manner to free my mind as proof OF
my friendship. Receive it in the spirit
which has dictated it. Faithfully and re-
gretfully your, VIM. LLOYD GARRISON.

SPRINGFIELD, Hls., June 3.-Senator

HOUSE.

The House proceeded to business on

Senate bill granting the right OF way TO

referred to Conference Committee,
Senate bin to pay Eldridge Gerry: OF Col
orado, $1,000 for lost stock taken by the
Sioux Indians, was amended by increasing
amount to $I3, 200, and passed.
Mr.. Beck moved to suspend the rules and
pass a bill providing that attorneys or claim
agents before Congress or the departments
shall file affidavits that neither they nor
others have any interest, direct or indirect,
in the claim, or any agreement for compen-
sation, except such as they shall specify,
and which shall not exceed 10 per cent. OF
the amount of the claim.
Mr.. Peters said the bill had some very
Objectionable features, and ought not
pass.
The bill was rejected, yeas 20, nays "a.
Mr.. Bingham, from the Judiciary Com
mittee, reported bill amendatory of the
Bankrupt Act,
extending it to the insurrectionary States

THE New York Tines, with Peck
snifisn air, regrets that "there may be q
limited number of Democrats who have
been drilled into believing that the liberties
of our country are in danger from our
present President" Grant has certainly
afforded them sufficient ground for this
opinion. In spite Of public sentiment, be
is earnestly trying to get from his partisans
a grant Of absolute power, in time of en-
tire tranquility, when the only exciting
event In prospect is his own election.

VieWs of nc PresIdent.

The President has, as he remarked TO in
qUirers, surrendered his personal views te
what he considered a proper concession in
the desire to save the treaty in behalf of
the financial and commercial interests of the
United States and maintain peace between
the two countries.
There was point, be said, behind which
further concessions would be sacrifice of
national honor; and, as we had reached
that stand, it remained for England to de-
eide whether or not the treaty should be
abandoned.

Chased by n Saw Log.

4 Canadian who was engaged last week
on the brow Of hill, near Pittsfeld, Mass
Ill cutting timber and rolling it to the bot
tom, endeayored to manipulate log for a
safe descent, but discovered that it was get
ting the better of him. He was on the
under side, and it would not do to " let i,
slide" so he screamed for help. Bat nc
help came. His strength was surely and
rapidly failing, and there was nothing to
do but run for it; and run he did-a fear
fal race. The natural philosophers say
that log gains in rapidity as it descends.
1t is otherwise with human legs on a run,
even when, in this case, the descent
is steep and icy. There was no turning
out, and the log gained with terrible rapid
ty on the frightened Canuck, and was now
just on his heels, when luckily he espied n
hollow in his path into which he popped
with bound, but had barely time TO hud-
die himself into his hole, when crash !.
crash the log Numbered over him, and
left him safe, but about the most badly
scared man that ever halloel.
