They "say, Longstreet Is a brave, daring, and successibl rebel general, whose bands are red with the blood of Union men; and in whose ears are still ringing the groans of suirering soldiers impiisoned at An dersonville, Libby, and other places ; but, because ho berme a fawning sycophant at the foot of the conquer or, he Is to be rewarded with a Ad office. 'That no matter how uncom promising a rebel a man may have been, so he but becomes a brawling Union loyalist--swallows their plat form—and all is well." Gen, Longstreet,immediately atloe tbe surrender of Gen. Lee, came out frankly in a letter urging upon the people of the South to accept the situ ation in good faith, and support the acts of Congress in reference to recon struction, as the spedlest and surest solution of the problem of establish ing civil government, and Bemiring national recognition and representa tion. For this he has been'a target for the arrows of . malignant rebel hate ever sines. He is a man, in every respect qualified by education and integrity to fill the. position for which he has been . nominated; and we'think the ratification of his ap pointment by 'the senate, will go far toward convincing the people of the South, that the -North harbors no spirit of 'revenge and hatred toward them. Let by-genes be by-gone&— Let the dead past bury its dead.— Hold out the olive bnuich, and let us proceed, in the future, as members of one great Republique family. WU see it Intimated in late Wash ington correspondence that the Cqm mittm on Commerce, to whom the nomination of Gen. .Longstreet was referred, will report it.. back' to • the Senate without recommendation; and throw the responsibility upon ttat of settling the question of the propriety of sanctioning this class of appointments. 'We trust the Senate will 'loth() influenced by narrow pred- Indict.; but by a bold,liberal,and mag nanimous policy,in at once confirm ing the appointment. We ean afford to be magnanimous, and it Is our duty to be so toward our late rebellious brethren. premo'Corirt, — tildli tire State Consti 7 tution, gold their officer for the term of three Years, if they so long behave themselves; and after they have been thus appointed and inducted into bffice, they can be removed only by impeachment, or by conviction for crime. The judgts of the Supreme Court have been severely and unjust- ly crithfized by the press of this State, beemsethey have not turned out of office the Prothonotaries who are charged with having issued fraudu lent naturalization papers; They may have issued them, or they may have been counterfeited. Whether they did or did' not issue them, the I Supreme Court has no jurisdiction to supersede them. That court takes no original jurisdiction in criminal cases. The offending Prothonotaries must be impeached, or tried regularly be fore a court of Quarter Sessions, or Oyer and Tennlner t and be convicted before they can be. usted. The Jud ges of the Supremepourt could them._ selves be impeached arid broken of their offices should they act in asum mary Way,and oust their Prothgnota ries without giving them the benefit oftraverse of the charges before ajury of . their countrymen. ' The moment an officer fora fixed term of years, is inducted into office, he holds Ms term by right, and cannot be remov ed except on convictron of ruhitrelik vior, or by Impeachment—no ulnaer whether the office comer by election or appointment. Hence, all the an- 1 aftremas against the Judges of the Supreme bench in this State, in that regard, have been ignorantly or wan tonly made; and entirely unmerited. The public press, to support its own integrity, as well as to be just to our. highest legal tribunal should 'regular In making reparation for' this, in most instances, unwitting wrong. I, i Dunizoo the war quitoa number of Union men and women, residing , within the enemy's Imes, furnished highly important information to our army commanders. It is very grati fying to notice that the services rendered by these persons,Particular ly the ladies, have not beettforgotten, but are being repaid, now that the strife is over. While 'Sheridan and Early were lying in each other's front, in the vicinity of Winchester, in '64, a young lady,. named Wright, we believe, passed thrt6gh - Early's lines, came to.Sheridanis headquarters, and gave that' officer such ;information as assisted him materially In sending Jabal,'" whirling through Winches ter," a'few days afterwattg After the .War closed, "Little Phil.," paid a visit to Winchester, searched out his lady inibrmant, and Made her a pres ent 41,00) gold watch.
