CUES that thief who steals private cor.

age the rightful owner, is as innocent be-
fore the law as the officer who, in the dis
charge of his duty, seizes kilograms OF
persons under trial for crime. The thief
who stole the letter and the man who first
made the letter public were equally guilty
They were accomplices. The one stole
the letter. The other knowing it to be at
least property with which he had no right
except to return II to the owner convert
ed it to his own use. We published it as we
publish other letters passing through the
press, that have become public property
by publication. But Pillsbury acted as the
converter of stolen property, the accomp-
lice ofthe sneak-thief who stole the letter.

the ex Confederates. He has proposed a
bill to repeal al the statutes which pro-
hibt payments to Rebels and Rebel aiders
and abettors. That is. he wants not mere

forfeited them by treason, but he wants
the Government to pay for the taking of
census in the South in 1860. all value OF

bv the Rebellion he desires also that the
Rebel Postmasters shall be reimbursed for
the stamps they had on hand when they
went into the Rebel army he also desires
that all bar shall be removed from former
Rebels for losses or alleged losses OF any
nature whatever. Having made this much
progress. the next step would be to pay
the ex- Rebels the value of their emanci-
pated slaves and the losses Of the Confed-
crate debt.
Messrs. Merrimon and Vance, demo-
Gratis, do not stand alone. Mr.. Cook.
democrat, of Georgia, sustains the North
Carolina democratic gentlemen with a
bill to refund the cotton-tax out Of Nhe
pockets of the Northern taxpayers, and
to authorize the payment for all cotton
seized by the United States after May 20,
1865. Thus, within the first few days of
the session, and before Congress has got
into fair working condition. bills have
been introduced covering all the efforts
which the Tribune predicted would be
made by the democratic Congress to open
the vaults of the United States Treasury to
the ex- Confederates. and to put upon the
loyal North the losses incurred by the
rebel South on account of its own folly
and wickedness. In the cotton tax, the
South contributed small proportion of
the cost of the war, insignificant as COM
pared to the special tax borne at the
North for the same purpose. But the
Southern representatives, it seems, desire
that even this much shall be refunded out
of the pockets Of the Northern people, and
that the Southern people shall suffer in no
respect for their effort to destroy the Gov
eminent and dismember the American
Union, but receive its bounty in an even
greater degree than the Northern people,
who fought for it and preserved it. In
view Of the efforts we have noted, it will
scarcely be denied that the people o. this
country are to be congratulated upon a
republican Senate, and the check which it
may hold upon the democratic majority in
the House.

is DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y. The prom
inence which he has alta ined has been reached
through strictly legitimate means, and SO far,
therefore he deserves the enviable repu tation
which he enjoys. This large measure of success
is the result Of thorough and careful preparation
for his calling, and extensive reading during q
long and unusually large practice, which have
enabled him to gain high commentator. even
from his professional brethren. Devoting his at
tention to certain specialities he has become rec
ognized leader. Not few of the remedies pre-.
scribed by him have, it is said, been adopted and
prescribed by physicians in their private practice.
His pamphlets and larger works have been receiv-
ed as useful contributions to medical knowledge.
lie has recently added another, and perhaps more
important work, because OF more general applica-
ton, to the list of his published writings. This
book, entitled "The Peoples Common Sense Med

circulation. Dr. Pierce has received acknowledge
ments and honors from many sources, and espec
