BARNES HISTORY Of CONGRESS-

Mcssrs. Harper d Brothers published
the History Of the Thirty -Niuth Congress, by
William H. Barnes. This was a review Of tho
measures Of reconstruction, with brief blogra.
phIcs OF the members Of the memorable
Congress which performed the difhcult
work Of restoring the recently rebcilious
States to their normal relations with tho Union.
subsequently Mr.. Harness prepared and published
In successive volumes the history Of the forteth.
Forty-nrst, aud Forty-second Congresses, Goa.
stituting a work OF great value, containing bio
graphical sketches with portraits In Steel OF most
contemporary American statesmen. No oaher
work ever published contains so large number
Of steel engravinys and none contains q collsc-
tion Of more faithful llkcncsses The work Is a
most valuable contribution to the history OF the
nation.
The historical laSors and illustrations OF Mr..
Barnes relate not merely to contemporary Con.
gresses, hut extend over tho entire period Of the
national life. He has collected much material for
blOgrs sphies and portraits Of Senators and Repre-.
natives from the first Congress, down to the
psr!ol embraced by his already published vol
umes.
Mr.. Barnes has Just Issued a volume superior ia
any which he has before Published; entitled "The
American Government" containing portrait,
and biographies Of the Presidents Of the
United States, tho Vice President, the heads o
departments anl Senators Of the Forty-third
Congress- The volume Is In quarto form, and Il
| q splendid specimen Of literary, mechanical AM
artistic execution. The sketches are valuable fo
| purposes OF reference, and the portraits recou
mend It to all who take an interest In collections
Of fno enIrnvlngs. This volume, which s til,
first Of the american Government,"is to be fol
| lowed by a second, to include the Representative
of the orty.thiri Congresses The work. whei
completed, will be one calculated to give Amer
cans a correct view OF tho personnel Of their Gov

A large number Of members seem to i'm

"TOTIL lNSESTI,."

The House bill removing all political dis.
abilities from citizens of the United States
who may have forfeited any rights by par
ticipaiion in the rebellion is now before the
Senate. It is'a notable fact TINT among the
first working days of the session the House
responded so promptly TO the rccommenda'
tions of the President relative to this I'M
portant subject, and il il to he hoped that
the Sem,e will not delay action upon it.
The time has come whch the people Of the
Moth canno, only afford to do this thing,
. bu, when they dcrand II from their repre-.
scntaiivcs. The war and its consequent
bitterness has gldcd rapidly into the mem.
orics of the past, and Is recalled now with
less recrimination between the two
sections than VIC thought would exist
generation hence. There Is cause for
earnest congmtuhtiOn in this fact. II
shows plainly that the sectional feeling
which forced the collision upon the North
and South was purely and solely occasoncd
by slavery. That great curse having been
removed the people have, with npidity
unexpected and almost miraculous extended
the right hand Of fellowship to each other
with an earnest iervor which declares most
omphatlcnlly that the orn of good feeling has
really begun. No thoughtful man can realize
this without dcyout acknowledgment
that II Is the reward which Providence has
vouchsafcd for the act Of emancipation
That was an act of religious duty, and when
the manacles fell from the limbs of the mil
lions of slaves in the South, the people o
the two sections were placed upon an equa
footing In the light Of modern freedom
While II Is natural tina, differences of opin
ion should and do still exist regarding purcl,
political topics, II isalso natural that, havinl
no moral question u, issue, the whole qcopl'
should soon be united with one aspiration
for their mutual benefit. The heat Of po
