dent Lincoln to him on the sutject ot
calling together the Virginia legislature.
Mr.. Lincoln in the course of his conver.
sation had expressed his object in deslr.
ing them to meet and TO vote. It was
desirable that every legislature should
recogniZs the national authority. II
was the situation OF @ tenant between
two contesting landlords, who was cali
ed upon to attorn 10 the one who had
shown the better title' This was his
| remark"
Here were no humiIiatipg terms of
submission imposed on a brsve people;
no amnesty qualification exRcted; no
bsnishment or coDfiscAtion lava; 10
test-osths to incite to perjury or foster
the resentments Of war. On the con-
trsry, relief and protection should be
denied to none, while the common
rights Of fraternity and citizenship
should be freely accorded to all.
In propounding these conditions the
President showed q just appreciation Of
the southern people. Had the policy
thus declared been carried ouL faithfully,
what untold misery and sufferings would
have been prevented! The humane
and generous heart of President Lincoln
repellsd with horror the crselty and
weakness which would involve In pun
ishments and penalties q whole people.
Such wrongs and injuries, such injustice
and impOlicy, were reserved for those
leas moderate and mAgnanimous, who,
on his violent and deplorable death, sue
ceeded TO the reins OF government.
The President returned to Washing
ton filed with joy that the war was
ended, and satisfied with himself at
having secured, as he supposed, just !
and generous treatment to the van |
quished, who had suffered so severely In I.
the late strife. bis cruel death, 80 la y
mentable in itself, and 80 disastrous in I
its effects, which occurred only O few
days after these generous ovsrtures of |
peace and kindness, inflicted new sor-
rows on the already crushed and smitten
south.
We willingly draw the vail over the
picture, and remit its harsh
features to the verdict Of impartial his
tory, or to that oblivion of wrong and
folly which, happily for mankind, time
and our better nature will ultimately
bring.
Already there Is gratifying change
Of feeling sprnging up between the re-
5pective sections; q change Of northern
sentiment as to the real condition and
disposition of the southern people, and
4 change of sentiment as to the men Of
5he north. Thus q new era of feeling
and sympathy, the ties and associations
If a common ancestry and q kindred
lestiDy, will arise and be fostered until
he wounds Of the past shall be cics-
rlzed and forgotten, and the removal Of
uspic!ons and prejudices can make the
wo sections again one, and enable the
people of each to see not the worst but
he best phases of their respective dis
POSITION and character.

The Great Man Blaine.

washington Cor NeH York Graphic.
1t is sight to see Blaine In these
days, crouching back In the middle OF
the house, grizzled and shrswd, with a
look betwixt cunning and anxiety, wait
ing to pounce In on the debate or
prompting his assistants on the ground
to do so, An ablar man for strategy we
never had-a little too smart at times,
as appears to be the case in the Foster
Blaine letters. Foster edits Frelinghuy-
sens organ at Newark, whose original
editor, Frank Potter, Frelinghuysen had
made consul to Marseilles, where he
now Is. The uncle Of Frelinghuysen,
who was put on the ticket with Mr.. Clay
In 1874, defeated Clay by some Of bis
expressions on the Catholic question,
and provoked the Plaquemine frauds.
Again Frelinghuysen's organ is active
on the religious topic, and Blaine is
seen, in Mephistophelian humor, NOV
ing in the background.

Henderson.

Courier-Journal.l
Hon. John B. Henderson, the victim
Of President Grants wrath, is Just now
receiving good deal of attention from
the newspapers, because Of the peculiar
| ly bold and Independent stand he has
taken with regard to Presidential inter
/ fsrehce with government officials in the
discharge OF their duty. Ex-senator
Henderson is about fifty years of age,
and is native of Virginia. His par
ents went to Missouri In 1880, when he
was quite child, and he was left with
two sisters in needy circumstances. A
few years later, when his father and
mother died, at twelve years Of age, he
was put to the cabinet-maker's
trade; subsequently took to farm
ing, and, when he had accumulated
sufficient money, obtained an education
and fitted himself for the occupation OF
teacher which he followed for a time.
Then he studied and prActiced law; was
elected to the legislature of Missouri as
. Democrat from Pike county; aud was
run for congtess but defeated. He again
devoted himself to his profession, and
was again sent to the legislature, where
be was the recognized leader of his party.
In 1858 he again ran for congress and
was again defeated, the administration
(Buchanan) influence being thrown
against him because of his opposition to
its policy. He was a delegate to the
Democratic national convention of 1860
and warm supporter of Douglas there
and In the Presidential contest of that
year. He ran on the Douglas ticket for
congress, but was once more defeated.
He had now assumed strongly antsg-
onistic position to the element in Mis-
souri, which sympathized with the seces-
sioniets, and when convention was
called he was leading member of it.
He assisted in reorgsnizing the militia,
and took command of a brigade. Such
was the standing he had attained that
when Trusten Polk was expelled from
the United States senate for treason,
Henderson, was elected to the vacancy
over John 8. Phelps by vote of eighty
two to forty-two and twelve scattering.
His service expired in 1869, when he was
by Carl Schurz. In the senate
his term, Mr.. Henderson
maintained front.rsnk position as a
Republican statesman, and was just and
independent enough on the attempted |
of President johnson to |
render his verdict not guilty With Dix |
On, Doolittle, Fessenden and Trumbun,
and battle the conspiratorF, Grant, Stan |
ION. Thad. Stevens, Ben Butler and the |
rest who sought to seize the Presidency |
