TIE NORTH AND THE SOUTH.

Is the war uvery Was the proclamation
OF amnesty and forgiveness to all partici
pants In the war against the Union, issued
in 1866, an honest declaration? If So why
this constantly recurring question; What
OF the south under the coming admins.
tration Of the republican party? Why,
what Of the south any more than what Of
the east, the west OF the north? Are we
not one people, endowed with the same
constitutional rights in every quarter of the
Union
These questions occur to us in view of u
scene In the House ut Washington on Tues
day, in which one Kennedy, of Ohio,
though applauded as smart" by his own
party, unquestionably made a great fool of
himself. The matter under consideration
was the Indian appropriation bill, but Mr..
X, ignoring the subject In hand rs we'll as
the rules of the house, " improved the oc-

south, as vitdperatIve AS 1t was devoid of
facts.
He commenced by assalling Mr.. Crisp,
of Ga, whose appointment as chairman of
the committee on elections he said was "an
insult to the house and the intelligence of
the United States" because Mr.. Crisp him
self had been elected "5y the same sort of
fraud and infamy" that had defeated the
negro Smalls, yet he was placed at the
head of the election committee for pur'
pose, and that was with undue haste to
present report in favor of John @. Car
Isle, whose right TO seat In the house
was contested. For his conduct In that
affair "he would go out to private life
condemned by his political associates and
despised by his political enemies, too low
for pity, and beneath contempt"
He went for Breckenridge, of Arkansas,
in whose district he said tour members Of
the legislature had resigned because they
were ashamed TO hold seats 10 which they

The Rose Paled.

Three years ago, when Lester A. Rose
came to this city az the servant of the gang
then running the Jomnal, to iustigate a
" journalistic revival" and drive certain
people cut into the weary woods, he singled
out, as the initial subject for exile, Esquire
Van Buren, Weeks, then, as now, police
magistrate.
He set sail for Weeks in the true gutter
snipe style, and not finding him in the gutter,
assailed him from the shore. There was
nothing too vile for the sheet to accuse
W eeks of having hand in, No section OF
the city, where vice and crime could be
found, was complete without Weeks pres
ence, according to the sheet which Rose
controlled.
Weeks was patient under the abuse, but at
length sued for libel. This awakened the
ire of Rose afresh. and he seemed more eager
tc run him out of town than In his previous
attacks But all the same Rose was I'M
willing to submit the case for trial. POST

trial judge was at the last moment
summoned as Roses witness, and every re-
sort adopted to put off trial. after the
plsadngs had been filed and an issue Joined
by the overruling of Roses demurrer setting
up justification of the libel.
At length, when there was no longer any
alternative and the case must come to trial,
on Monday Rose asked fora continuance
until Wednesday and then until Monday,
pending settlement. Weeks did not seek
a settlement. Rose begged to be heard, and
the case was continued until Monday.
On Wednesday evening there was con-

The Military Ball, on tuesday evening,
was chiefly prominent in the profuseness of
its decorations, which we're nothing if not
elaborate. The entire south end of the ar,
mory rink was hidden by two enormous
flags, loaned by Sheriff MOrrissey, which
were draped at right and left. Just in the
center stood a soldiers tent, in which were
placed the blankets, oyercoats, and rifles, of
five of the boys In front Of the tent stood
the company flag. At the north end, the
flags loaned by different patriotic organiza
which perched large stuffed eagle, with
flags and plumes draped about it. The side
walls were hung with bunting, and at each
pillar was hung knapsack, soldiers plate
and tin cup. At the center Of each side hung
a snare drum and busle. The decorations
we're the finest ever attempted in the city,
and the effect produced was excellent.
The ball itself was not so large as the fire
mems hut there was no lack of guests, for
tneTt were LUl l6sS ihhu clA huhNiSN PCOkiN
in the rink when the drill was given.
The drill was the feature of the evening.
Twenty men and three guides, the pick of
the company, under Captain Blanchard and
Lieuts. Hook and Formulas, went through
all the movements, excepting the platoon
and brigade, and recited the manual of arms.
The grand march was dispensed with, and
dancing began at the conclusion of the drill.
On several occasions there were nearly one
hundred and twenty couple on the floor,
which was very well filed until at the close.
Willis orchestra furnished the music, and
Seth's voice was tuned away up in G. When
he called the first dance, and looked down
the floor upon the bright eyes and smiling
fnces, his head seemed to shoot up a foot
higher, and he called as though his reputa-
ton was at stake. From private sources it
was discovered that he had made a bet with
Gully that he could hear him away down at
his Ice house, Oh the main canal.
A good supper was served at Piergues.

Obituary.
MRS. WILLIAM THOMAS.

Phoebe Wilder Thomas, wife of William
Vhomas, ex-superintendent of the Illinois
and Michigan canal, died at her home, on
the east side, at three o'clock on Wednesday
morning, of heart disease, aged sixty-tso
years and nine months Death came upon
her very suddenly, and with but few mo-
ments' warning She had not been feeling
well for year or more, but no serious i'll.
ness had been apprehended. When Mr..
Thomas found her very i'll, he at once sum
moned medical aid, and called Col. Hspe
man and family, the latter arriving at her
bedside just as life was departing.
She was born in Bristol, Ontario county
New York, on May llth, 1926, and was
married to william Thomas on Washington's
birthday, 1874, in her eighteenth year One
child, Mrs Douglas Hapeman, was born to
them. In 1857 they came west, and settled
in LockTort, and in 1862 removed to this
city and had resided on the east side for
many years.
Mrs. Thomas was not q woman who made
great "noise in the world" Her habits
and tastes were those Of the home. As the
wife Of man holding leading position for
many years in connection with the govern
ment of this State, however, she presided
over his household with gentle grace and
dignity and gracious, kindly hospitality.
She was true gentle woman in the fullest
sense of the term. In transformations works of
charity she ever took a leading part, both IN
this city and in Lockport where much of her
married life was spent. She was Il faithful
wife, loving mother, good, pure, kind
hearted woman. What nobler epitaph can
be written?
The funeral took place from her late resi-
dence at two o'clock yesterday afternoon,
and was, despite the very disagreeable roads,
largely attended Among those in attend
ance from abroad were Prof Evans, Capt.
and Mrs. Leighton, Mr.. and Mrs. Milne, ard
Miss Milne, and Mr. Dewitt of Lockport,
where Mrs. Thomas had very many init
mate friends.

ART EXPRESSION.

"A great genius in Paris, nearly century
ago" says l. Edward Clarke, in his great
work, " Industrial and High Art Education
in the L, s., published by the government
" set himself to serious study in search of
the laws which underlic human expires =
SION In was the same work ia which Rus q.
kin has toilod so many years but in which
he has had only partial success as regards
universal art; hut Delslrtes years of pa
tient research, were rewarded by important
discoveries" and, through him, the musty
dogma, that there can be no standard of
correct taste set up, and that throughout the
whole realm of art the only guide is fashion
or individual caprice has forever been
disproved and demolished.
Naturally these discoveries were availed of
first in the dramatic art, but soon painters of
historical and dramatic scenes found use for
his principles and now it is coming to be
recognized that since all art is but express,
sion, the laws of expression must underlie
all art. Here, then, is the practical out.
come If art is based on immutable laws,
like mathematics, the principles of correct
taste can be demonstrated and therefore can
be taught and this the teacher Of Delsarte
aims to do. 1t can be shown why one ex

sculpture, &c.,--is pleasing and another dis.
