THE PRESIDENTS SUPPORTERS

ResoitY1, That in the Judgment of this House the
action of the President in withdrawing the Federal
troops from the States of South Carolina and Louis
lana was wise just and constitutional; that it has
contributed in IA large degree to the restoration OF
peace and harmony throughout the country, and is
entitled to receive the cordial support OF all men
who realize that whether we live in the North OF
i'll the South. in the East or in the Vest. we have
one country, one Constitution and one destiny
Of course there were instant objections
on the Republican side, even of allowing
the resolution to be referred, which was
all Mr.. Goode asked at this time. Gre
fer 1t to the Committee on Education and
Labor roared Ben Butler, from his seat.
~ object" said Mr.. Phillips of Kansas
and the matter was dropped. Mr.. Goode
intends, however, to force a vote on it at
the earliest opportunity, and make the
Republican members show the people
whether or not they do approve their
Presidents action. The presentation OF
this resolution gives the lie to the as
sertlOn that no Democrat dare introduce
resolution approving the Presidents
Southern policy without coupling it with
a reputation Of his title, and the lusty
objection Of the Republicans to it's refer
ence even, proves their unwillingness to
tell the country just what they do think

On the morning Of Nov. ID the weather was

storm. but not an Immediate one-so we took ii
team and rode four or five miles to Ash Point
The scene here was dismal and wild; the constant
ringing of the warming tide bell on Ash Island only
added gloom to this lonesome spot BY vigorous

help we started for the celebrated island from
whose hard beds the imposing New York Post

wind increased to a gale, and being Southery and
dead ahead the small sail could not be used The

A PRESENTATION.

After the close of business at the Mint yes
terday very affecting little scene was enact
ed by some of the attaches of that institution.
Mr.. A. NJ McCabe, faithful and gentle
manly guard of the Mint treasure, it will be
remembered, recently took unto himself a
wife; and it has been observed that the great
additional responsibility which he has as
sumed weighed heavily upon his juvenile
brow, and would frequently walk the streets
deeply engrossed in thought, bent over like
half-open jack knife. This gave his friends
great concern. His former carriage was
straight as an arrow To revive his former
elasticity of walk and buoyancy of spirit, it
was decided upon to present Mr.. McCabe with
a token, evidencing the affection and esteem
in which he is held. A committee was ap-
pointed to procure symmetrically shaped
willow stick, to which was attached, with red
sealing wax, a very nice, but not too expensive
white bone handle of an old umbrella, and
the tout ensemble produced most gorgeous
effect. The presentation speech was made
so pathetic and soul stirring, that they drew
briny tears from the eyes of all who were
present. Mr.. McCabe, as is usually the case
on such occasions, was so overcome by sur
prise and pleasurabe emotion, that he could
scarcely utter a word. Finally, he recovered
himself and replied in very felicitous man.

and concluded his remarks by assuring them |
