THB ERA OF Coon FEELING.--No one
occurrence since the war has done so
much to restore friendly relations be-
tween the lately hostile sections, as the
death of Charles Summer, the great
leader in the war of ideas which resulted
in the conflict of arms, whose personal
character commanded the common homr
age of friends and enemies alike, to his
his memory. Of the speeches made IN
the House of Representatives on the
occasion, of his death. a Washington
correspondent says: c.aes, ste
The speech of the day, the one which
evidently made the deepest impression
and elected the highest praises, was the
one delivered by Mr.. Lamar. It was .
feeling. touching tribute to the great
virtues and noble qualities Of Mr.. Sums
ner, at the hands of man who left
Congress in 1861 to go into the Confed
crate service; man who has been re-
garded as one of the most dangerous Of
the. fre-eating class of secessionists.
Interwoven with the high econiums that
be passed upon the great apostle Of hu-
man liberty and equality, the one who
was always bold and fearless in denoun
cling the system for which the Confed-
crates fought Mr., Lamar wrought q
manly, moving appeal for a more COM
plete restoration Of good feeling and
mutual confidence between the North
and the South. He spoke simply and
with but little use Of the arts OF the
orator, with his voice well modnlated
and toned down to suit the gravity Of
the occasion. He held the full house
and packed galleries epell bound till
the conclusion Of his remarks, when
spontaneous burst Of applause broke
out all over the floor. coming up hearty
and warm, especially the Republican
side. There were many who. in the
bitterness and heat of partisan strife,
had grown apparently callous and In
sensible to good professions from those
whom they have fought and distrusted
as traitors, who were moved to tears by
the simple, manly appeal to their better
nature. The speech will live. and will
have marked and beneficial effect in
the future. i@W snf l4a. nHQld3 hna Il

W Zina Fay Pierce, the daughter Of
a clergyman at st. Albans, Vermont,
lesos a departure in the temperance
movement. She has formed society,
and written for it a creed. The points
of her teaching are that the milder
forms of liquor should not be classed
with the fiery; that beer drinking and
beer-gardens should be countenanced
by young ladies'; that women should
drink malt liquors instead of tea; and
that the total abstinence pledge is g Q
stigma upon the communion, and di-
rect accusation against the wisdom end
morality of our blessed Savior himself. !"
Zina is young, eloquent, and pretty;
consequently she has many followers.
