Payment of Southern Claims.

In the discussion Of the claim Of NEWMAN
and VAN HoFFMAN in the House of Repre-
scntHtivcs on Friday, the question Of the
payment of southern claims generally was
referred to. and Mr. MILLS, of Texas, was
swift to assert that the Southern people
would never demand payment for property
destroyed during the war. The Southern
people had accepted the issue of the war,
and were too proud to make such demands.
That is all very well 50 far as it goes. Mr..
MILLS may have expressed his own scnti
mcnts, but we question whether they are
the sentiments of the mass of the Southern
people or of their Representatives in Con-
grcss. Professions are good, but practice is
better. Ii Mr.. MILLS will carry his mind
back to December, 1S16, lie will per-
haps reCOlcct that lie voted no on
Mr.. HUNTER's resolution for con-
stitutiOnal amendment to forever pro-
hibit the payment of rebel claims. Or, If
his recollection is dcfcctive,a q reference to
the vote recorded on page 21j, part /, of the
Congressional RccOrd, second session Forty
fourth Congress, will no doubt refresh it
The country will have more confidence in
such declarations rs that made by Mr.. MILLS
when the Southern Democrats in Congress
consent to place upon the record an aiiirma.
ton, in the shape of constitutional amend
mcnt, that these claims shall never be paid

a Southern View Of the Case.

We give place on our first page to prOliX
communication from u Louisiana Rcpubli-
ran, not for the purpose of approving its
positions and utternnces, but to show the
avowed views and sentiments of class of
Republicans in that section. This review
of the case is, rs it represents from the pen
OF Republican and gentleman Of ability
and intelligence, and is peculiarly marked
by its spirit of Christian resignation. A
careful perusal of the document will show
the following propositions on the part Of the
author: That the white people of the State
OF Louisiana are clad with an iron mail OF
prejudice, which rcsiSts all obedience TO the
constitutional amendments, that avOw-
edly secure freedom and the equality OF
citizenship to the COlOred race. 1t is ad.
nitted that the whites will never yield to
the degradation Of recognizing the con-
stitutional requirement which places the
white and black race upon a political
equality, and hence tho blacks are to be
prosecuted and bull-dozcd until their citi
zcnship is II mere sham and hy-word
Thus far there is no rcrOnstruc ton or pncif
1lOn, 50 illI uS lllt Diith lNts are CONGO tnttl
and never will be, until the Federal powcl
intcrposCs to enforce the constitution ant
laws upon which the rights Of citizenship
are based
The further argument Of this dOCumen
Is that PACKARD was not elected Govcrno
. of Louisiana, though he received more vote
at the same election than was counted 10

Louisiana, could not by any possibility

The New Party.

No! We do not need a new party. Purify
and stick firmly to the principles of the good
old Republican party and the nation is safe.
The principles of the Republican party are
good, but in our zeal for it we often overstep
the bounds of right, and thereby disgrace 1t.
Every Republican should be truthful, up
right, and honest, so that he may attract 9TH
ers to join his party because it is reliable.
Washington saved the nation, Lincoln pu-
rifed the nation" So the Republican party
saved the nation, and its principles should be
carried out SO as topurify the nation and wash
1t clean Of all the foul dross cinging to 1t from
the past.
United we stand, divided we fall" If We
divide our fathers sons and brothers spilled
their blood in vain. United we conquer. and
are an honor to our great land Of freedom; di-
vided we go back to the old days, which were
disgrace to this so-called land of liberty.
Instead of forming new parties, let every
true citizen stick firmly to the one upon
which our Republican Government is based
with firm resolve to provide things honest in
the sight of all men to help one another; live
as brethren, and be first and foremost In pro.
tecting the honor of our country.
Our zeal for our party Is often like our zeal
for our Church. We worship the Church in,
stead of its great head, so we are too apt tC
claim the Republican party without following
its principles, which are good, for In them We
| serve the Almighty In an acceptable way by
advocating the freedom he has commanded.
So let us be Republicans in word and deed
and have for our motto ror Del, ror populi, do
ing right no matter what may come, so that
we may do honor to our great martyr-Lin
coin.
All honor be to the brave men who have
stuck to the Republican party through trial

BLUE glass is not quite dead yet. DR.. Davis,
director of the insane asylum at Maidstone,
Kent County, England, reports some extra
ordinary results Of his experience with blue
glassiightcd apartments in the treatment of
insane patients. On some persons the effect
was very striking Lunatics who constantly
remained in these rooms, after three days
asked for water to wash themselves, which
they had never before done, and they were as
tonished that they had previously been so un.
clean. Raying-mad patients, who broke
everything to pieces, after the third day ex-
pressed their sorrow for their misconduct.
Hysterical girls, suffering from mental weak,
ness and convulsS6ns, after the third day gave
no signs OF either. Similar experiments with
equally successful results, are reported from

boston. Mass. For sale by William Balantync,
rs seventh street, Washington, ID. e.
This Is not history of the Fourth Church
in Albany, nor of the Mount Vernon Church in
Boston. II Is the life of one Of the most emin-
emf divincs Of our times and Of our country.
The sacred friendships" says the author,
between the hundreds of young men and
their pastor in both cities, can find no ex.
tended narration in these pages Out Of Oh
abundance of material referred to him and
gathered by him, Mr.. Moars has cndeavored
to present the boy, the youth, tho man, the
minister, the refOrmer, as he was, and
substance of his teachings since hi:
name is indissolubly connected with many
Of our most honorcd institutions and most
prominent reforms" This has been made a
most interesting work. With its author II
was labor of love, evidently almost akin tc
worship. With the most painstaking care has
he siftcd his material and selected that which
would have the best, most lasting effect upon
the reader. Much attention Is given to Mr.
Kinks early life. Tho picture Of that period 4
drawn from the diary Of the young student. Th'
historian then carries us on through his pastora
duties in Albany, Boston, and Paris, where HI
oficated in the American Protestant Chapel
with fidelity as rare as it is ennobling. Hi
labors in the cause of temperance and anti
slavery are not neglected. Tho picture of tn
life of Mr.. Kirk is admirably drawn, aud form
a work of some 4i0 pages, illustrated with sew
cral fine cngnvihgs of the subject and tn
churches in which he oiiciated. 1t shoul
grace the library Of every Christian.

THE Utica y. " Head says bitterly
that the opponents of the Presidents con-
ciliation policy are not those who went TO
the front" Perhaps so. But it is very evil
dent that the great majority of those who
approve of that policy did go to the front
with their faces toward the North. 4 close
examination of the Army and Navy Regis
tcrs of the United States during the war
fails to discover the name of the editor OF
the Hcrdd among those who went to
the 'front.' with their faces to the South.

we should be disposed to back Mr., SCHuR2.
That he is feared and detested by the iObbers

Department Of the Interior is sufficiently OBJ
vious from the nature Of the attempts made to
u-slil his character and motives. These may
make somewhat Of stir within the rather
petty circle of public opinion in Washington
they will be accepted throughout the country
merely rs fresh proofs of the contemplate
character Of Mr.. ScHUHz's asEailants, Let
him stick 10 the business of breaking the
rings and he will achieve a reputation not
