Reconstructed Loyaltf la Virginia.
IIknbt A. Wise has been making a speech
on the occasion of the annlvcisary of the
death of Stonewall Jackson. ItJIs of
value as Indicating the real spirit which still
actuates the most of the old Rebel leaders.
We have Italicised certain parts of It, to direct
the reader's more special attention to the
ideas avowed and suggested. "Toil call the
causo lost," he says meaning thereby the
cause of secession, treason, and Rebellion
"it is not lost," That Is the key note of the
whole speech. And ytft Congress Is being
vilified all over the country by a certain
class of demagogues because it will not
admit communities utterly steeped in such
treasonable sentiment- as these, to imme
diately wield an unjust and unequal povver in
the aflWrs of the nation.
See, too, what would have been the fate of
Union men had the Rebels triumphed. "I
should have favored stripping them naked,"
says this polluted and unhung traitor; "they
might have appealed for pardon, but I would
have seen them damned before I would have
granted it."
Truly it is a matter of great inju-tlce that
the Union party will not allow such speci
mens of reconstructed loyalty as Henry a.
Wise to once more lord it over us all in
Congress!
But read his speech :
"I don't know that I am a prisoner. (Lattirh
ter.) I am bound bynocnaiu. I have a pass
to eo where I please upoa the soil ot my native
land. At least General UiuNr says so. I niav
be arrested, but I wunt no man liviuz to tell
me whither I might go. (Chee)s.) I have the
proud satisfaction of ea.vinsr that 1 fouzht until
w naa won tht privilege ot being paroled. I
(AppUuse.) There is no authority here or
elsewhere to arrest me or to Hop my mouth, so
long as I obev the coudttions of turn parole: '
and upon tttat parole I shall tand so ion? m r !
live. (Applause.) You coll me a prisoner of j
war; I am not a prisoner of war. It prisoner I
at all, I am a prisoner of peaef. Among the I
last shots fired by iniantrj Ht Appomattox were
those tired by the troops that I had the honor
and priiie to lead; and there at Appooiattox !
peace was brought about."
" You tall the cause lost; it is not lost. If it
is lost, the cause of civil liberty is doomed, for it, j
too, i lost. There was a Paradise tost and a
Paradise renamed, and there will be a Paradise !
regained in this country. The blood thai has I
been spilled is too precious I shoutd not believe I
in God if I did not be'.ieve that a special provi- I
dence would yet give victory to and secure tie tri- '
umph of civil liberty in ihis country.
"Ono thinsr can tie t-ald. there was oae mnn .

did not consent to do. as Ion? as one man in
tms Commor wealth (a voice, 'What Common

Fodder for the "War lTorse."
Once upon a time, long ago, there dwelt in
our city a famous steed, whom hisadmrers
termed the "war-horse." Alexander
caused "Bucephalus" to be deified, and erected
unto him a temple, and IIeliooabalvs raised
a shrine to his charger, created him a consul,
and had offerings tendered bim of grain,
tipped at the top and foot with gold or silver
foil So also did the good people of Philadel
phia erect a church for the housing of this
modern "war-horse," thronged it with crowds
to hear him neigh and see him prance, and
offered, not cereals surmounted wkh'precious
metal, but gave him solid gold, bearing an
impress of a wreath of leaves. Then this
beau cheval grew sleek and pleasant to gaze
upon. lie held bis head erect, and with nos
trils distended snuffed the air to detect the
least effluvia of alcohol. He breathed forth
fire and slaughter against Christian dissen
tion, and in the palmy days of peace shot
Are from his eyes to consume all opposer? of
the faith. Toe guilty were to be trampled
beneath his feet, and he champed the bit, all
eager lor any conflict lie said, six years
ago, that "whosoever would not stand by the
Union of the Sta.es should be tohlin 4io
thema Maranatha." And the people ex
pected great things of this steed, anci they
called him "Boanerges," because his voice was
the voice ot thunder. j
But suddenly the storm of war, which all
held to be afar off, came near. The first gun
was fired, a bitter conflict had begun, and the
people looked to see the "war-horse" fulfil
his promises and call in clarion tones for the
vindication of the laws. We waited, and are
waiting still, to hear the promised anathema.
Alas I as soon as "the steed smelt the battle
afar off," he exhibited anything but the ex
pected courage. His crested mane drooped,
hia eye lost its fire, bla ears and tall hung
listless, and the war-charger became a dray
horse. Bucephalus voluntarily turned into
the dragger of an omnibus, and "Grey Dol
phin" of the legend became a harmless worker
in cart harness. "Boanerges" fled like a cow
ard from the battle. The Rev John Cham-
THE DAILY jjrENIyG TELEGRAPH.
BPR8 raised his voice for peace and on the
side of compromise and treason.
While the war lasted, it is only natural to
suppose tbat the people would not think much
of the braggart who, after promising so much,
had utterly failed when needed. But now
that the danger's past, the charger seems to
have regained his spirit, and is appearing once
more erect. On Wednesday last, the votive
flock of his pastoral caie preserved the lie v.
Joim with n elaborate set of silver, of which
due chroniclo was made In the Democratic
organ yesterday mornintr. We are assured
that the gift was exquisitely designed and exe
cuted," and that the utmost ' propriety" was
noticeable in tho selection of the emblem. In
addition to the general statement of its beau
ties, we have each paraded before us in all
its splendor. Tbeie was a "large and beauti
ful urn," with "tracery ol morning glories
and leaves," and the whole surmounted by
"an eagle with outspread wln?s." We do
not admire the taste or the sense o! "pro
priety" of the committee which would select
such a design for a presentation to Mr.
Chambers. Why not have a wreath of
"palmetto leaves" interspersed with pa3sioa
flowers, which resemble In lorm the "Southern
Cross ?" This would certainly have made tho
gilt much more acceptable. In regard to the
"spread eagle" on the top, to be sure it is a
delicate reference to Mr. Chambers' style of
oratory, but we cannot but think that his
evident dislike to the eagle would have made
him prefer a drooping dove, with some sprigs
of olive.
In addition to the urn, we aie assured
there were " two tea-pots, a sugai-dish,
cream-pitcher, and spoon-holder." Also, a
a "6lop-basin," usoful as a depository for his
sermons when preached, and as a climax, "a
butter-dish, graced with a cow ( ?) standing
on the top." We are glad to know tho animal
was standing, and not sitt'ng, as is customary
in nature. A lamb would be much more sug
gestivesor even a calf would have been better.
The gilt inncluded by "an engraved waiter,"
i lack, ot course, as
man would certainly
a black waiter, and a
the reverend gentle
not have other than
casket for storing the
goods, ol "polished walnut," an evident error,
as it should have been ebony. An affect
ing speech was made by Mr. Newland, in
which he referred principally to the pastor's
temperance efforts, and touched lightly on the
fact that "on great public questions we have
had our differences of opinion and feeling."
To which "Boanerges" replied with his "usual
feeling and characteristic style ;" and, after a
burst of tears and appeals to memory,! the
company separated. The offering was over,
the god had accepted the gift, the libation
was poured, and ihe ceremony was ended.
We suppose that tho steed will eat the gilded
sheaves, that he will revive under their benign
influence, and we expect once more to hear
the war-horse neighing and prancing in our
streets, and edifying the old women who ad
mire him, and the sympathizing friends who
will not desert him, as he never deserted the
Southern cause.
Street Begging and Peddling.
A few days ago a correspondent of one of
the morning papers complained of the annoy
ance to which private lam'lies are subjected
by the frequent ringing of the door-bells by
beggars and peddlers. This is, indeed, a
serious nuisance, which has been of long con
tinuance, and it is really remarkable that it
has been so patiently endured. Few persons
are unwilling to give a meal of bread and
meat to relieve some poor but honest creature
who is really suffering from hunger, but all
may reasonably obiect to having their servants
constantly answering rings of the hall-bell,
given by a horde of vagrants who have no
other business than to ask lor a supply of cold
victuals. ,
The habit is a bad one, for several princi
pal reasons. In the first place, the custom
of general vagabond begging from door to
door encourages the worst sort of mendi
cancy, and multiplies in every community in
which it is allowed a class of people whose
vocation should be discountenanced. It is
quite notorious that a large proportion of pro
fessional beggars are entirely able to earn a
fair living at some honest work ; and it is
much more than probable that if they did
not find it so easy to get along in idleness,
they might turn their handj to some useful
and proper labor. And this : reflection is im
portant, for the reason that every able-bodied
beggar who is supported on the fruits of beg
ging not only withdraws a certain amount of
industry from the general productive means
of the community in which he dwells, but, in
addition, levies on that community a contri
bution to the extent of the food, clothing,
and so forth, that he consumes. As the pub
lic, moreover, is taxed pretty heavily every
year to maintain almshouses, the Guardians
of the Poor should see, that every deserving
-pauper Is placed in the asylum specially pro
vided for him ; while the police, under the
supervision of the Mayor, and the authority
of the city ordinances, should take care to
arrest all other mendicants and by j that
means gradually suppress street begging
altogether. j
In the second place, many of those who are
habitually engaged in the business of beg
ging from house to house and peddling small
wares are only thieves in disguise, who use a
comparatively innocent call.ng as a cloak to
cover cilminal designs. They prowl about
private residences, especially in the suburbs,
seeking opportunity to filch any article of
value which they may snatch up and i hide
away unobserved ; and If tbeysee a hall, or
kitchen, or Inner room exposed to entrance
without detection, they readily ply their trade
of petty .larceny, and make off with such
booty as they can conveniently carry. I And
they pursue this game with peculiar boldness,
for the simple reason that If they are met by
sny member of a household before being
caught In tho very act of robbory, they can
assume the mask and fe-ign the whine of the
beggar, and escape even suspicion. We have
no doubt that not a few successful burglaries
are even planned by persons of both sexes,
who gain admission to private residences by
affecting to seek on'y a crust of bread, or to
sell a few pins or shoe-ties and the like, and,
when once inside, make rapid inspection of
tho Interior fastenings of doors and shutters,
and then report the result of their examina
tions to the expert thieves, who afterwards
execute, with comparative facility, burulari
ous schemes in those quartets where their
trained tcouts have first made tho necessary
rcconnolssance.
On the whole, street begging and unli
censed peddling arc 'contrary to public
security, as well as to public decency and
oidcr, and should nowhere be tolerated.
Both vices prevail to a considerable extent
in this city ; and besides the Inconvenience of
having their front door bells rung almost in
cessantly, and the servants drawn away from
their work to answer the calls of vagabonds,
or thieves in dlfguiec, our citizens are con
stantly exposed to have their property stolen
by day and their houses entered by burglars
at night. The nuisance is, as we have said, a
grave one in many respects, and our au
thorities should promptly and effectually
abate it
The Jeff. Davis Trial Tho Demo
cratic journals are already declaring ' packed
iurles" and unfair operations in the prelimi
naries of the trial of Jeff. Davis. Evi
dently, they think Jeff. Davis never waged
war against the United States. By-and by
they will deny that there has been any war at
all. We look upon his trial at Richmond as a
larclcal operation, from the fact that we do
not believe that a single Rebel or Rebel sym
pathizer can be found who, as a Juryman,
would regard bis oath, and find a verdict
according to the facts.
Fitly Rebuked Mr. Chanler, of New
York, insulted the House of Representatives,
vesterday, by introducing a resolution stig
matizing Its action in passing the Civil Rights
bill as the "wicked and revolutionizing act of
a few malienant and miseb'evous men." The
House showed its appreciation of Mr. Chan
leb by voting down his scurrilous resolu
tion and immediately passing a vote of cen
sure upon its author. According to parlia
mentary etiquette Chanler ought now to
iesien his seat. We doubt his doing so,
however.
The Democratic Papers are delectating
themselves on the report of Generals Steed
man and Fullerton concerning the opera
tions of the Freedman's Bureau in Virginia
and North Carolina. This re pore should be
received with several grains of allowance.
Fullerton is the same officer whose ad
ministration In Louisiana was so acceptable
to the Rebels and so offensive to the Union
men. It was hardly to be expected that he
should find anything good in the operations
of the Freedman's Bureau.
Bills Signed. The President has signed
the bill amendatory ot the Habeas Corpus act,
and for the protection of Union officers from
6uits for acts done by military order during
the war.
These are bills of which vetoes have been
predicted by those pretending to be in the
President's confidence The second men
tioned one was especia'ly necessary to pro
tect our officers from the vindictive perse
cutions ot the Rebels for acts done in their
official capacity.
Gekebal Fiske has gone to work to re
build the school-houses and churches de
stroyed by the mob in Memphis. It is inti
mated that the city will have to foot the bill.
We should hope so. Fuller details of the
operations of that mob show its outrages to
have been indescribably fiendish. Congress
has appointed a committee to investigate the
whole matter. '
Mr. Stewart, yesterday, offered his amend
ment to the Reconstruction report now before

Picnic to General LoDgntrrt ninloyal
Toanis Apotheoala of General Lee
Arrival or tne I7tia Hag-ulani Hatred
of the Colored Troop.
Galveston, Texas, April 21. On Tuesday, the
24th inst., the ''Cfmplinientary Picnic" to
General J. B. Lontrstreel. which dad beou post
poned from the previous week on necountot bad
weather, came off at the Dickinson Bayou Sta
tion on the G. H. and (I. Railroad, about twenty
miles from Galveston, and was attended by
about two hundred and fifty people from this
city. Dancing and various amusements occupied
the time till dinner.
General Lonpstreet was introduced to the
party gathered at the dinner-table by General
Merilman, ot this city, who said he would pre
sent the distinguished soldier and gentleman,
General J. B. Lonpstreet, whom we all had
cause to respect lor the great services he had
rendered his country; that no Nepro Bureau
should intimidate us from honoring the man we
loved; and, finally, if the General desired it, he
hoped he niipbt live a thousand years.
In respotiHC, General Lonpstreet referred briefly
to his having been in Texas a long time before
the war as an officer of the old army; that he
felt like a Texan himself, etc. With a broad
smile, he said: "We are all good Union citi
zens, but we hardly know how to act in political
matters at present; if we are anxious to be
reconstructed on the basis of loyalty, our profes
sions are not believed; if we do any differently,
we are called disuniontaK So we hardly know
how to shape our course." He concluded with
the sublime sentiment "The home-spun dress
the Southern ladies wear."
Considerable champagne was drunk, and
several toasts given, among them this: "Gene
ral Lee, he is worthy to be President of a wise,
jupt, honorable, and magnanimous people.."
General Loneafreet said: Tliouirh I am un
worthy to loose the shoes of General Lep, yet I
cannot hear that name mentioned without i re
sponse. General Iee is probably a greater,
wiser, and better man than all ot us, orten thou
snnd Buch. I have served under him, and hope
I have merited his approbation; and 1 trust that
General Lee will some day say as he ought to
say, "Attention , Universe ! By "Kingdoms, right
wheel!"
A gentleman, miMakiiip the sentiment, added
"info the Presidency right wheel in'o the Pre
rit'eiicy !"
Pictures of several groups were taken by the
Galveston Photopiaphic Company, when tbe
party repaired to a tent, where the youth of the
party, with a few long-eared animals and mus
tang ponies, enacted what they called a cireup.
At 4:i0 P. 11., we iet,on Ihe'train for the city.
The 17th regiment of Recnlars arrived Sunday
morning on the sleanirhip Clinton, aud marched
through the town to their camping-grounds to

The citizens have been longing for the "Re
gulars" to enrae, as they understood they wer
accustomed to "keeping the nigeers straight."
A deachmnt of eoloied troops was sent to the
v. hart to guard them as soon as they arrived,
which did not tend to increase thidr regard lor
the negroes, and difficulty was barely avoided
then and there. The regulurs manifest a dispo
sition to do what was claimed for them in re
gard to the treatment ot the blacks. A soldier
jesterday took a negto's hat from bim on the
fctreet, when three black men knocked him
down, stamped him, and eo injured him that for
