truth; but the belief of the writer certainly was

trut0; but the bettT OF the Wrlter certainty was
precisely what The Nation states.
But the words in question have since been found
in TIE TRIBUNE If May I, 1861. To this we reply:
1. That many bitter things wero said by all Of us At
that bitter time just after the attack on Sumter and
the Baltimore massacre, which world not have been
said in November, 1860. 2. That the words in ques
ton were part of an editorial urging stringent
blockade for the purpose of shortening tho
war, and that with their context they do not
seem savage so much as extravagaDtly rhetorical.
g. That whatever they are, Mr. Greeley did not
write them, did not approve them, and never saw
them until after they were printed. 4. That they
written, as we have since ascertained, by a
gentleman who is n jealous well as able sup
porter Of President Grant, and a leading editor Of
The Ereaiag POST
And now. since we are not likely TO think it
needful to give much further notice TO paper ca
pable of such things, let rs make clean work with
The Nation by noticing its excuse for the plump
flsohood that Mr. Greeley present If he did not
also preside at the dinner given TO Air. Geo. H. But
Ter before the departure of that person to Washing
ton to lobby for the place he has since dsgTaced.
Its apology is a rose-coloTod paragraph about tho
dinner, exhwled> from the local reports Of TIE
TRIBUNE, ION its face, not the work Of regular
reporter, but of some personal friend, engaged in
writing mp and magnifyn0 the occasion for the sake
of its hero) wherein it is stated-that Mr. Greeley
tds present. OH nO,-but that he was guilty OF
sending a civil letter Of regret. That Is habit
with most gentlemen though perhaps not with the
writer of The Nation.

Judge Barnard's conduct on the bench con-
tinues to be the main subject on which W.T.
nesses are examined in the Court of lmpeach-
ment. The first substantial victory for the
defense was won yesterday on one of the
fifteen specifications of Article XXXVlll.
The counsel argued that Judge Barnard had
right to scratch himself in open court, to give
notice that he was about to do it, and to add
that this exercise would probably appear in the
Articles of Impeachment And the Court de-
cided that lie had. But n more important fea-
tu7o of the proceedings was the proof that the
Erie people ordered and paid for the dining
room furniture of Judge Barnard, about
which there has been so much discussion. 1t
is noticeable that the defendant has not yet
anpeared in court.

A letter from David Livingstone, the African
explorer, written to the editor of The Neic-
York Herald, and printed in our columns to-
day, definitely settles all questions as to the
whereabouts of the noted wanderer. The
letter is dated at UjHi, East Africa, Novem-
Der, 1871, and modestly and succinctly gives
Livingstones schedule of travel and explora-
ton, past and future. This interesting COM
municatiCn will convince the few doubters
that the expedition of The Herald did actually
discover and communicate with Livingstone
and will be a source of profoundest gratiilca-
ton to the friends of Livingstone and OF
sclcnce.

CLEAN of poetry over the abstruse studies OF
the convention by keen analysis of the
normal meter of English heroic verse. If this
essay took the form of dissection rather than
of an illumination, it was attributable to the
purely scientific character Of the subject, not
IN the study itself.

Another prominent New-YOrk Republican
politician, the Hon. L. b. POttle of On
tario County, has left the ranks of the Grant
marty. Mr.. Pottle has served two terms in
Congress, and was a member of the last
Grant State Convention at Elmira. This form
of "concomity" in the denomination party is
becoming chronic.

The Grant leaders in Pennsylvania manifest
the same faulty which is their leaders chief
characteristic. The President elects to stand
or fall with Casey in New-0Teans and Cra-
mer in Copenhagen. His party managers
in Pennsylvania, in like manner, cast the lot
of their chief with Hartranft, and sink or
swim. survive or perish with him. Beaten in
October, they agree to surrender before No
vember. This is obstinacy worthy of honor
able mention.

The Hon. j. r. Doolttle made speech at
Norfolk, the other day, in which he summed
up very fOrcibly the general objections to
Grants administration. Such speeches as
these appear to goad our denomination
friends to frantic pain. They are so continu-
ally on the defensive that their orations seem
only pleas in bar. The marked Characteristic
of all the Grant speeches is their attempts at
exploitation, extenuadon, and defense.

The renewed prospect that Congress IS 20 be again
asked, at its next session, to add to the artistic
delights Of the Capitol a statue Of Farragut iils us
with dismay. That the immortal Mills and the in
comparable Ream (Vinnie) should once more con-
tribute TO the maryels of this century is thing
which may well inspire feelings of the most un-
speakabe sort We abiectiy confess That we are not
educated up to the point Of approaching high ant as
applied TO coatbuttons and the tails of horses Ii is
much too high for us. We cannot comprehend it.
II is too beautiful too unearthly Those 1T lie things

but when it comes 10 Ream-l Those noble and
unc)mmonly sky-high works round which the crit
ical Senator and the gushing lobbyist group them
selves in awful admiration, not, in fact adapted
to ordinary minds. Only beings Of the loiticst ar
tistic culture-like the Hon. Matt. Carpenter-can
appreciate them. Alas and alas. There are few
such. Therefore we protest. Let the common pco-
pie have something placed in the Capitol which they
too can enoy-something which, not Boosting the
tremendous touches of a Mills or a Ream, may vet
not disgrace the creations of those most remarkable
artists of their country. Seriously the one light
and sensible thing for Congress to do is to ap-
point a competent Art Commission like that which
it once so unceremoniOusly extnguished. IL is alb
surd that men who, however clever they may be In
other directions have idea at all OF art should in

crows whose only merit is that they make the
stranger pause and shed a smile. For Heavens sake

California is Il State owning a great deal of good
sense and good taste. Its latest evidence Of these
qualities is the appointment of professional arbori-
culturist at a salary Of $4,000 year whose sole
duty to attend to the planting of forest trees all
over the State. No better improvement than tins
could be conceived and executed, and IL gives hope
for other and older States that are becoming pfully
bare. Through some parts of New-York and Con-
necticut roads wind fol miles and miles along tree

beauty with which they Were once covered. The

A small newspaper-Ihe Boston Transcript, for in
stance-can sometimes tell a falsehOod of highly re-
spectacle proportions Ii would have been difficult
for even Ferdinand Mendez Pinto to manufacture
more astonishing one than this
"A Plea for the Rebels is the title some Of The Papers
give Mr.. GreeleYs letter accepting the Democratic
nomination for the Presidency"
We see a great many newspapers and some fool
ish ones, but we have not seen in any of them any
thing foolisher than this In all Mr. Geelcys letter
there is not one word one line, one sentence. one
paragraph, or one phrase which can with the least
veracty be characterized "a Plea for the Rebels"
In point of fact there is nothing in the letter about
" Rebels" at all. Having done what could" says
Mr.. Greeley, " for the complete emancipation of the
Blacks / now insist upon the full enfranchisement
of all my White countrymen. Let none say that the

MEETING OF THE ELEVENTH WARD RE
| FORM CLUB.-The meeting of this club last
evening was called to order at half-past
seven o'clock.
The president announced the following
as a. finance committee: A. B. Griswold,
Slayback and Wing.
A request for the uso of the wigwam, Tor
a Republican club, was referred to the Sec
rotary, with power to act in the matter.
Mr.. Kennard offered the following resolu.
tons:
Resolcea, That committee Of eighteen
be Immediately appointed by the char,
whose duty shall be to canvass this ward
without delay and obtain the signatures OF
parties willing to join the Reform party:
said committee to have full power to make
such arrangements, at their dlscreu ION, as
will best carry into effect the objects OF this
resolution, and to draft on the treasurer
for all necessary expenses.
ResOlced, That the president be ana ne Is
hereby authorized to sign lease Tor TINS
club room, to run from March l to Deem
Der !, 1872, on the EIOst favorable terms
that can be Obtained.
Adopted
On motion of Mr. Andrews it was voted
| that the bylaws and constitution, and also
the resolutions offered at the last meeting,
| be posted in the club room for the informa-
| ton of all members.
Mr.. Kennard then introduced Colonel
Ware. from Iberville parish. He referred to
the present condition Of Louisiana. He said
there were 5000 colOred voters to 500 white,
who were disguised with the present ad-
ministration, and no doubt would sustain
this reform movement. He drew a parallel
Of what Louisiana was in the old times and
what she was now. In the old times she
wore coronet on her brow: now she is like
a wretch that crouches in some cell in our
Parish Prison. That the vampires in Louis
lana were drawing away the lite's blood of
the State. Louisiana will be redeemed, and
all this reform movement needs is energy,
and success will be accomplished.
The following gentlemen volunteered
their services toward canvassing the elev-
enth ward: Messrs. Lloyd, Wing, Griswold,
Andrews, johnson, Young, Davis, Moore,
Church, Jr Newman, Jr., Harrison, Finlay
Postoir, James Buckner, Maddox and Seller.
The other three names were left open for
colored men. These eighteen will canvass
each street in the ward. On motion the
club adjourned to meet next Tuesday eve
ming. at the same place.

The Nermilionville 4drertiser of the sec
ond instant, published in Lafayette parish,
says:
We met Mr.. Edward Reilly, one of the
sub-contractors of the New Orleans. Mobile
and Texas railroad, in this place on Monday
last Mr.. Reilly informed US that he would
commence work on the road near Vermil-
ionville next week, and push it on toward
the Sabine as fast as possible. He author
lied us to state to the planters and farmers
of this parish that he will employ from them
all of their surplus horses, mules and oxen
at reasonable prices He stated, also that
it is not his intention to interfere in any
way with the planting interests of the coun-
try and will therefore not employ any per.
son to work on the road who is already en-
ployed on plantation, without the consent
of the employer. We are glad to see this
disposition on the part Of the railroad con-
tractors, as it will protect, to great ex-
tent, the planting interests of the country,
and we have not the least doubt that by
following this course he will get all the as
sistance from the people that, in their pres
ent condition, they can give.
