at the dinner of the New England Society in
New York, the other day:


Where the duty of the soldier ceased, com.
mences the duty of the Legislature and the
statesman. 1t is their duty to see that the
fruits Of our victory, be not Dead Sea apples,
that tempt the eye, but turn to ashes on the
lips. The nation requires every guarantee.
legislative and constitutional, necessary to
secure equal and exact justice to all men,
There is to-day no diversity of opinion worth
mentioning between the present exalted Pres
ident of the United States and the Congress
Of the United States. Tremendous and long
continued cheers. A peace is easily attain
able, and there is no peace which is honora-
bic, which is not based upon the eternal prin-
cples of right and truth He had firm faith
in the patriotism, legal sagacity, foresight,
singeness of purpose of the President of the
United States. He had full faith in the Con-
gress of the United States, he had faith in
the people cheers !, and he had complete
faith inthe Omnipotent Power whose right arm
had led us in safety through our terrible con-
fict. He concluded by fayoriug the hanging
OF some rebels. saying that without the shed
ding of blood there is no remission of sin.


Mr.. LANE is one of the Oldest and aalest
Republicans in the country, and his opinion
as to the substantial harmony between the
President and Congress is entitled to much
weight, and is shared. as we are assured, by
the prominent men in Washington in
eluding Secretary STANTON.


TIE World denies that the present
Congress is the Congress of the Uni
ted States, on the ground that the
Rebel States are not represented in it. For
the same reason then We have had no Com
gress of the United States for the last four
years. sand for the like reason we have had
no President of the United States during that
time, and have not now, because the rebel
States did not participate in the Presidential
election. Hence it follows, on the theory of
the World, that we have had no Government
of the United States and have not now. The
acts of the Executive are those of lawless
usurper, on the World assumption, and Con-
gress is mob unauthorized by the Constitu.
ton, and the laws passed by it are the mere
edicts of mob, without binding authority at
home or abroad.


1t is upon this theory that the reunited
secesh and copperheads, when they obtain
power, will attempt to rescind emancipation
aud repudiate the National debt, under the
teachings of the World.


THE correspondent of an eminently conser-
vative journal of New York, writes as follows
from Georgia, on the text of notice in Ma
con paper :


"Mayor Collins informs us that at least
thirty negroes have been buried at the ex.
pense Of the city within the week ending yes.
terday evening, and that nine or ten of them
were picked up dead in the streets aud alleys
ofthe city"


That there is great mortality among this
unfortunate class Of people, none can
dispute. People too lenient to impute a
motive, or look with suspicion on another,
wonder why providence deals 20 harshly
with the negroes. They do not search for the
philosophy Of this mortality, and charge it
home to the wicked prosecutors Of this quiet,
loyal race. II is with shame that / confess
the fact, that represe natives of my own race
exhibit to the niggers more brutality than
ever saw the worst passioned men extend to
individual specimens of the canine breed. 1t
is this almost universal hatred, coupled with
persecution, (God bless the noble excep-
