Hon. Henry Wilson.

The following beautiful language
issued by Hon. Henry Wilson in his
recent st. Louis speech, is his position
upon the subject of reconciliation, as
related to the people of the South:
| Gentlemen. am ready for concilia-
ton, but with Gods blessing it must
he cancellation in which humanity
and the laws Of Almighty God are not
sacrificed. [Applause.l | am ready
to be conciliated with anybody. |
don't know a man or woman on the
earth that can not meet tonight and
shake their hand in friendship. do
not like qurrels. | had rather be abused
any time and bear wrongs than to in
flict them. But, gentlemen. one thing
is clear. We had a struggle in this
country for forty years. On the one
side was the spirit OF liberty, born in
heaven-a spirit that lifts everybody
up. and pulls nobody down. On the
other hand was that spirit of slavery,
Of cast, of privilege, that outrages hu-
manity and divides mankind into clas-
ses--a spirit that drags everybody
down, and lifts nobody up. We had
it iii peace; we had it in war, and we
have had it since the war; and, gen.
tlemep. at the sacrifice Of blood, of
treasIi@, of years of strife. we have
marched up and reached shining sum-
mits where liberty dwells and heaven
rains down it choicest blessings.
Now, gentlemen. instead of going
down from the heights we have strug-
gled for forty years to gain-where we
stand-we have gone up nearer God
and tried to carry the world with MS,
instead Of going down. | want to
reach down to ON Southern brethren
and lift them mp to the lofty plane on
which we stand. [Applause. Iwant
to breathe into their souls the spirit Of
patriotism and of that love of country
that sacrifices property and life itself
to save. | want to breathe into their
hearts the love of liberty-liberty for
all classes and conditions of men. |
want to make their blood loyal and
their hearts throb with sympathy. |
want to let them say that they will
build their school houses that shall
teach the children and the people the
truth, the truth that teaches the father
hood Of God and the brotherhood Of
all humanity. [Applause.l ! want
to understand just where we are, and
with Gods help stand there firmly !;
and it time and the providence of God
work in our favor, and we do all we
can to take our Southern brethren out
of the depths where slavery and the
war left them, and carry them up on
the lofty plane OH which the nation
now stands. Applause. That Is the
way to eonciliate. 1t is a change OF
heart and reason of our erring and
misguided countrymen. Now, gen.
tlemen. humanity demands 1.-THE
God Of our country demands 1.-THE
hopes Of coming years demand it, and
the good God above bids us do it.
[Applause.] And, gentlemen. when
you ask me to come down and shake
hands with and join with men who
are wrong, instead of lifting them up,
to make them more weak than before.
| dom join in that work. | pray God
to keep me from it. [Applause.

Much has been said by the Greeley
ties about shaking hands over the
bloody chasm." They endeavor to
convey the impression that Grant and
the Republican party have not been
willing to do this but that Greeley has.
Let Us see how this was in the terms
stipulated to Gen. r. Il. Lee for the
surrender Of the Army of Northern
Virginia? The officers were ito give
their individual parole not to take up
arms against the Government of the
United States until properly eXchang-
ed. and each company or regimental
commander to sign a like parole tor
the men of their commands" The
arms, ETC., were to be turned over to
proper officers, &c..but not to embrace
the side-armS Of the officers nor their
private horses or baggage. This done,
leach officer and man will be allowed
to return to their homes, not to be
disturbed by us. authority so long
as they observe their parole and the
laws in force, where they may reside. y
Is there anything like inhumanity in
these terms. Now contrast these with
the language and spirit Of Horace
Greeley in the 1'ribMne Of May of the
same year. Read his bloodthirsty and
rcyolting language: but, neverthe-
less, we mean to conquer them; not
merely to defeat, but to conquer; to
suhiugate them; and we shall do this
the most mercifully, the more speedi-
ly we do it. But when the rebellious
traitors are overwhelmed in the field
and scattered like leaves before an an
CRY wind. it must not be to return to
peaceful and contented homes. They
mNst find poverty at their flresidcS and
zee priyation In the anxious eyes Of
mothers md the rags Of children"

The NeYyIneyard School Matter.

Mr.. EpIroE: The following paragraph,
originally appearing in your columns, is GO
| ing the rounds of the papers
| 1.-The village of New Vineyard, " hch is
notorious on account of having petitioned for
| the pardon of the criminal, Hoswell, has
| again distinguished itself as having high or
der of civilization by expelling from their dis
| trict school girl because she did not live in
| the district when the number of scholars was
| taken last spring"
| An attempt is here made to cast a stigma
| upon an entire village for the alleged reason
that some of its citizens had petitioncd for the
pardon of man convicted of manslaughter,
and the eXpoling of scholar from their
school who did not belong in the district. In
the first place, l find upon inquiry at the
office Of the Secretary of State, that no such
petition had ever been received. If there had
been am unable to perceive the propriety of
casting reproach upon an entire community,
because portion of its citizens see fit to ex-
ercisc their constitutional rights, although
the object sought to be accomplished may not
| accord with our notions of propriety.
| As to the other cause of complaint the
facts are as follows: The village school at
New Vineyard has been overcrowded by
scholars residing in other districts to such an
extent that the district voted at regular
meeting to exclude all scholars not residents
| thereof. Before the commencement of the
winter term the present year, application was
made TO the Agent for the admission of a
girl residing some fifty miles from the place,
who wished to visit her relatives and. attend
school. The Agent referred to the vote of
the district, and from a sense Of duty assigned
him declined, The offer was then made that
the giil should remain until she would legally
draw money for said district; still the Agent,
from sense of duty as a townsman, declined,
saying it would be unjust towards the town.
Being assured that no bargain could be made,
the friends of the girl undertook to place her
in the school, in violation of the vote. In
this attempt they signally failed, and there
fore this report through the columns of the
press is the result. 1t is we'll understood
that this did not originate in your Office, but
was framed by some one Indignantly disap-
pointed at failing in an attempt to override
the people OF school district. / have con-
suited eminent counsel upon the subject, and
have been informed that the action of the dis
trict was strictly in accordance with their le-
gal rights. Talk about ''high order of ciyili-
cation" comes with poor grace from one en-
gagged in such an attempt at wholesale SLAM
der, whether he may be man blessed with q
plurality of wives or an advocate of 'red
tape"

Resignation Of Rev. {. Z. Moor.

We learn with deep regret that Rev. C.. Il.
Moor has rendered his resignation as pastor
of the Winthrop Street Cniversalist parish,
the resignation to take effect the last of this
month. This step we understand is irrevoca-
BILE. To his parish the announcement will be
it will be received with unteigned regret. All
viii feel that we are about to suffer the loss
OF one who is m honor to his profession, and
valuable, public spirited, and high minded
citizen During his pastorate of six years
with the Winthrop Street parish his labors
have been abundantly successful. He found
the society worshiping in a church worth but
| 50 900, and leaves it with one that cost So
| 600, all OF which has been paid, and the par.
ish entirely free from DEBT. In numbers and
strength the growth of the parish has kept
pace with the improvement in its church ed
| fee. To the libors Of Mr.. Moor much of
| this is due. Able in the pulpit, devoted to
his work, generous with his means social,
sympathizing, ready to aid every good cause
by deed and word, setting an example of I'M
| sullied, christian integrity in his daily walk,
| hAwon and attached men to his faith and
| congregation, and held them as though with
hooks of steel. But his labors have not been
| confined to his parish work. He has been
five years an influential Director of the city
schools, large part of the time being chair
man. During that time the fine new High
School building has been erected, the system
Of schools renovated, and their tone and use
fulness improved. For this progress we owe
at least as much to him as to any citizen.
His resignation and removal are therefore
matters which children, teachers, parents, the
whole community, will feel as serious loss.
1t is not within our province to speak Of him
farther in a denomir ational point of view
than we have. We close as we began, with an
expression OF our sincere regret at Mr. Moor 5
resignation and the consequent removal of
himself and respected family from our city.

Official advices from Geneva represent mat
tiers there as i'll a decidedly muddled condi-
ton.
In October last, two young women, be-
longing in Cornish, Maine, but at work in
this city, desiring to visit their home, sent
their trunks, containing all their wearing APP
parel to the Boston { Maine Railroad sta
tion in charge of a truckman. The inten-
tons were known to II young man named
Charles Ramsdel, also belonging in Cornish,
who intercepted the truckman and informed
him that the young ladies had abandoned
the idea of going to Maine, and by Ramsdelfs
direction, the trunks were carried to Pleas
ant street. The affair was soon brought to
the attention of the State police, and awar-
rant was placed in the hands of Officer Bag
ley, who soon discovered that Ramsdel had
decamped. He remained away until within
few days, and Tuesday was arrested by
Officer Clarity of Station 4. In addition to
the frst-named charge, il now appears that
several months since he hired horse and
top-buggy, valued at $500, from j. NJ. Davis
of Cornish, under pretext of going to
Marlborough, but neither horse, buggy, nor
Ramsdell have been seen since by Mr.. Davis,
until Ramsdell was identified by Mr.. Davis
yesterday morning. Information was OBJ
tanned as to the whereabouts of the trunks
and their contents, and Ramsdell will be held
to wait requisition from the governor Of

prominent member of the House that the
Department of State had no information
| whatever indicating trouble with Spain, or
which In any way required action by Con-
gress. Mr.. Fish added that whatever anxiety
might have been aroused on the subject was
the result of infiamatory publications by SEN
sation writers for press both in this country
and in Spain. General Banks, chairman Of
the House Committee on Foreign Affairs,
does not think that there is any EFFICIENCY
which requires the immediate consideration
of the Cuban resolutions which have been re.
ferred to the committee.
In the United States Senate "Wednesday
bills were introduced authorizing the admis-
sion Of six Japanese youths to West Point
without expense to the government, and to
elevate the condition of the rank and file of
the navy. Bills were passed to prohibit the
retention of soldiers discharges by claim
agents, and to abolish the grades of quarter
masler-sergeant, company artifcer and wag-
| oner, and extra leutenants as fast as vacan-
| cies occur in the army. In the House, the
coinage bill was recommitted. Mr. Clark
was admitted as member from the third
