4intriatu rostunteer. CARLISLE, PA., ( t'bnndar Morning. J»nn«rj 87.1870. innngnrnllon or On. Benry-“ Tho Col ored troops Foagtat Bravely.” “His Excellency, Mi\jor General John \V. Geary, Governor,” Ac., (we quote from the prograpime,) was duly inau Unrated on Tuesday of last week, with nil the “pomp and circumstance of glorious war.” A procession composed of seven grand divisions of soldiers, police and others, with tho “Major General” at its head, marched through the streets of Harrisburg, and up to tho State Capitol, where the inauguration c eremonies took place. A little piece of “unpleasantness” ,oCcurrecUust after the procession had been formed. At thtf request of Geary, the “ Excelsior Reserves,” a negro com ' panyfrom Philadelphia, had been in vited to participate ip, the parade.— They accepted, and on arriving at Har risburg they were assigned a place in the leading division. The Harrisburg firemen (five companies, numbering., over 300 men,) took umbrage at this and protested against the attempt to crowd negroes in front of white men. Rut their complaints and protest were not listened, to by those in charge of the procession, who had made up their minds that the negroes should not only join in the parade hilt lead in it. The firemen, finding this to be the determi nation of Gov. Geary and his backers, left the procession In a body, and pro ceeded to their engine houses, where they were dismissed. All honor to the Harrisburg firemen. They acted like men) and will be com mended by- every white man in the State whose commendation is worth having. A State law coni pels ustoride in the cars by the side of a" negro, but wo' believe we are yet free to refuse to’ parade the streets in hie company. How long this freedom is to be continued to us we know n< t, but so long as we en joy it we should exercise it. This is the first attempt the Radical conspirators of this State have made to force white men to associate and parade with negroes. It was an experiment. It was Geary’s own idea, and the rebuke was well merited. The ignorant negroes, are not haif as much to blame as those reprobates calling themselves white men who are constantly urging the ne gro to force himself into the society of white men. Let the indignation of I Mvhito freemen be turned against the' white corruptionists who are backing the negroes in their impudence. They are the guilty ones, and they should be made to feel the people’s wrath. The Beechers.— Even many of the better class of Republican journals are down" uron the Beechers. Their hy-' pocrisy, mendacity and untruthfulness have alienated Irom the n the hearts of their former friends; and the Philadel phia Evening Bulletin, (Radical) thus speaks of them: “At the.lime of the occurrence of the Richardson McFar land tragedy, the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher endeavored to excuse his as serted ignorance of the circumstances which provoked the murder hy declar ing that he never read the newspapers. Either Mr, -Beech* r ha» reformt-tl K\a neglect or else he has been the happy victim of a singular coincidence. While announcing to his congregation lately his intention to decline an addition of eight thousand dollars to his annual salary, he said that the first intimation of the proposed advance, was gained from the newspapers. Having expe rienced such an Agreeable surprise as a consequence of his first venture in thi peculiar literary field, we hope he will be encouraged hereafter to devote a brief portion of eael. day t< its con sideration. He n ay then perhaps be convinced of two important facts: first, that the Beecher fan ily does not'mon opolize the itelUgmn e of the world ; second, that even a Beeccer cannot commit a dfliberate offence against public morals without being held re sponsible to the community for shch a crime. He and his sister might have been spared much bitter reproach, and a certain loss of caste, if they had learned this lesson earlier. ' Radical Honesty.— At Washing ton, on Wednesday night of last week, tho Democratic members of the Hru=e met in conference at the fapitol, Mr. Randal) presiding. to consider the pro priety of having the Democratic mem bers retire from further service on the Committee on Erections, on the ground that that Committee was so ultra parti san in its decisions of contested election cases,!hat no Democratic member whose .-eat was contested, or a Democrat who was a contestant for a seat, stood the "host of a chance. The case of Judge Greene, of Kew York, was cited as the latest instance wherein the committee had decided against a Democrat, who had been elected .by several hundred majority, and from a distrist that has since his election to the House increas ed its Democratic majorities. No final , action, however, was taken on the ob ject of tho conference. A SijANDER Met.— Judge Black, of this State, has written a letter to' Attor ney. General Hoar, in reference to his remarks in the Supreme Court on Mon day of last week, on tho death of Mr. Stanton, In which he alluded to the former meriibers o£ Presidenttßuchan an’s administration, ns “secret plotters with treason.” Judge Black, who was then in that Cabinet, is ot the opinion that this is a reflection wholly unwar ranted by the facts; and he calls upon Mr, Boar to substantiate that assertion. Although Judge Black does not say so in this letter, he is prepared to show that, while General Dix and himself were working night «md day against secession, Mr. Stanton yas impassive and took no aggressive ground against treason and rebellion. A deoi.l thing lately happened to United States Senator Carpenter, ol Wisconsin. Having procured the pub lication of his speech on Cuban affairs in the MilwaukeeSen/rnet, toset himself right with hisconstituents, the publish er did himself the honor of presenting a little bill of $825 to the Senator for tho favor done.

Such is the Virginia Bill as it passed the Senate; The House had passed a bill that was embraced in five lines, ad mitting Virginia without conditions, which bill the Senate amended as above. According to the preamble of the Sen ate bill, Virginia had complied with all the requirements of Congress. She had adopted a Constitu ion “ Republican in form,” she had ratified the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Con stitution of the United States ; she had hutpblod herself in the dust, as she was required to do by the Radical conspira tors who arc in the majority in both Houses in Congress. According to the “ reconstruction ” programme, Con gress had pledged its honor (?) to \ ir ginia to.admit her on her complying with the demands made upon her. She complied, but Yankee-like, the Senate backed from its own pledged word, and now requires oaths from those who a re to serve as members of Assembly such as no, native Virginian can take. The object of these oaths is to debar Vir ginians from serving as members of her Legislature, and to foist into her Assam • ~bly Yaniceo carpet-baggers and greasy negroes. More than this, Virginia is to bo pledged against any alteration of her- State Constitution! Could tile Prince of Darkness have concocted more infamous and tyrannical requirements ?

A TBir TO DIXIF- Sflin on the Way—Xo. 3, After remaining in Raleigh ofie nigh t and the foliwiug day, wo left the beau tiful, t wn at 8 o’clock in tho evening on the R. & G. R. u.J and had a n ght ride to Weldon—nihety-seveu miles. Wo arrived at Weldon the next mf ru ing at precisely (i o’clock. Here we look the e.trs for Aqua Creek, arriving there at 3 Here wo took tho steamer for Washington, arriving at the national Hotel at 7 o’clock—ss miles. In our return trip wo passed Richmond withou’ stopping. The country through’w Inch wo passed to and from Wilmington, is not calcu lated to inspire a to mberiand Valley man with leelings.of admiration. Near ly the entire-route I oyond Richmond is the pine country, with here and there a cotton p'nntation, ' Fjir hundreds of miles, as far as tho eye can reach, we ,sie nothing but huge pine trees. But yet these pine forests y ield a handsome revenue to their owners, and the land they occupy is far from beii g inferior. They are thefruitful source of the pitch, tar, ami turpentine which have for years constituted a great part of, the wet of this section of the State. The pitch pine grows rapidlv and thickly on all of the sandy plains extending from the Piedmont district east of.the Alleghe nies down t tli- coast. The trees grow to an average height of about one hun dred feet, with round, mas -liketrunks, and hut few limbs, generally so thick upon tile ground as to shade it com pletely and forbid the growth of the grasses. Those trees are “boxed” in early spring by axe men, who cut one or more, boxes in each tree near the roots, and blaze trunk for some three or four, and sometimes->for fifteen or twenty feet, above the box, always hacking and scratching the wood so us to direct tho fl-.w of turpentine into the box, which is merely a notch made y a narrow-bladed chopping axe, and deep enough to.tj.old say hue quart of liquid: Twelve, thousand boxe- are called “a crop,” and yield, if a good season (i. p.', an early spring, .late fall, and «arm weather,) six dippings, realizing fifty to sixty bat rels, worth in the crude state from S2.QO to $2.50 per barrel; average at the stall. The still is a large keitli set in brick, work, holding eight to ten barrels as a charge, which is moderately boiled until the spirits of turpentine cease to run from the'cob of copper tubing, which in-the usual way is en closed in a tank into which a stream of water passes. The residuum in thestill is rosin. Two charges are "onsidered a day’s work, and the pitch residuum is worth more than theerude pitch brought to the still, so that the spirits of tur pe tine is clear profit. The pine' trfees survive the scarifying process forborne years, and are then used for “ light wood” By a recent pro ;es.s in use in Wilmington thelight w od Itself is put into a close boi.er and subjected to the action of heat until it parts with the turpentine and other chemi-als remain ing in the wood. We were informed thata.cord' f this light wood, by this: pro- ess, yielded from thirty to forty gallons of turpentine, eight to ten gal lons of pyroligneous acid, and enough extra quality of charcoal to pay for the distillation. The pine is also used for all purposes as lumber, being strong durable, and making very handsome flooring and finishing lumber. We noticed a new $65,000 church in Wil mington, finished with native pine, and it looked beautiful. At every stopping place we inquired the price of land. The answer was generally the same—“from $2 50 to $l5 00 per acre, according to quality and location.” Plenty of good cotton lands can be bought for $5 per acre. After remaining’in Washington city over nigot, we took the morning train of cars for home, arriving in Carlisle the same evening, after an absence of fourteen days, during vhich time we traveled eleven hundred miles. Finis. J. B. 8.. Public Schools of Pennsyt vania. —We have received the thirty-sixth an nual report' of the State Superintendent of Pennsylvania. Mr. J. Wickersham presents a well-digested series of educa tional statistics, and offers some valu able suggestions for legislative action The selection of the best qualified citi zens as directors and superintendents in their respective districts; the election of the State Superintendent directly by the people; the restriction of the frequent and expensive changes in text hooks ; the enforcement of a policy that will re claim the seventy five thousand chil dren now growing up in ignorance; the co operation of an increased State ap propriation to suoplement the school taxes ofthepoorer districts, anda judi cious appropriation to certain colleges and academies arc all recommendations worthy of attention and adoption. But few realize the enormous propor tions that our system of public instruct ion has attained, and the weighty re sponsibi ities devolving upon those Vhose heads, hearts, and hands are kept busy in these labors of love, .Superin tendent Wickersham dally controls a larger force than any one man since the times of the fahled armies of Xerxes and Darius. Including Philadelphia, there are 1971 school districts, having 13,936 schools, of which 2415 are graded; 76 superintendents oversee 12,900 school directors and 17,142 teachers, who, in turn, have their hands busy with 815,- 753 pupils.. The average attendance is exactly two-thlrdsofthisnumber. The male teachers average a monthly salary of $39, and fhe females, $30.52. The school term averages six months. The cost of tuition for the year is $3,000,704. The total cost, $6,986,149. Theesf (mated value of school property is $14,045,632. The Teachers’ Institutes are now estab lished beyond question. They were held last year in every county in the State. Their membership was 11,881, two thirds of whom were In actual at tendance. They were addressed by over flvohundred lecturers,and the ex penses were 515,685, thecounties defray ing two-thirds. So decided have been the benefits of these social gatherings' In increasing the efficiency and spirit of good fellowship among the teachers, that they have abundance of praise from oil quarters. It has transpired that tho estimates for tho coming year, which have been submitted to the House Committee on Appropriations, foot up $19,000,000 in excess of the sum named in the esti mates of tho last fiscal year of the ad ministration of President Johnson. And worsestill, adefloleney hill la being prepared to supply the short comings of last year’s estimates, over which (he Radicals made such boastful comments, Prince Arlhnr's Arrival In Wnshlrtglon Princt? Ahtiiuk, the second son of Queen Victoria,» youth of twenty years of ago, arrived at Washington in tin New York train at 8. 10 A. M., Satur day. His suite eonsi-ted of Minister Thornton, Lieutenant-Colonel Elphin stone, and Lie itei ■ants.Plcafd and Kitz coy, five servants; and a special man ager. The carrages of the ih ili.-h i.t nation wore in waiting at the depot, where'oh so a crowd of curious people, men and women, assembled and rushed towards, the Prince’s car. The crush was not so great, however, as to incommode the Prince and his pa- ty; hut the throng ol hackmcn in front of the depot indulged, os the party emerged, in some uncivi remarks —provoked by the dignified de meanor of iris Royal Highness’steward —which were not provoking, but rather amusing to the Prince. In company with Mr. Thornton and Mr. Fane, Secretary of the British Le gation, the Prince and Lieutenant-Colo nel Elphinatone, his governor, rode away in tho Minister’s open carriage. ML Fitzroy, Mr. Picard, the Prince's .equerry, and tire remaining members of the Prince’s suit, took the o her car riage provided ; the stewards and ser vants followed with the twenty six pieces of baggage, which two heavy wagons were required to carry. In half an hour, the Prince, Lieutenant Colonel ' Elphinstone, and their servants were housed at the British Legation, No 278 I street. The rest of the party were ac commpdated in the Arlington Hotel At the Legation, the Prince was shown to the rooms vacated for his convenience by Mrs. Thornton, and the most com fortable, richly furnished chambers in the house. *. A' QUIET -EV ENIN Q. In the evening a strictly private din : ner was given tothe Princeatthe Lepra tinn, nor was there; in view of the fati ru ■ incidental on the really distressing ionrney between this city and New York, any reception whatsoever in the '■veiling. This was in appordnnco with the expressed wishes of Prince A rtlmr. Hut sixteen ladies and gentlemen sat down to dinner: —His Royal Highness, Mr. and Mrs. Thornton, Lieutenant 01. Elphinstone. Lieu lean ts Picard and Fitzroy. Mr. and Mrs. Ford, Mr. and Mrs. Freeman, Monsieur and Madame Estrange, Mr,Fane, Crptain Ward, R, N., Hon, P. i ce, B. French, and Mllq, Gascoigne. Prince Arthur occupied; a matter of course, the seat of honor on the right of Mrs Thornton, and, Mrs. Ford, wifeofthe first Secretary of Lega tion: that on the right of Mr. Thornton. The rest of the, evening was spent quietly in the sumptuous parlorsof the Minister’s residence, the Prince evin cing a desire to retire early, feeling throughly worn out with the fatigue of travel and the excitement of the last few, days. HIS PROCEEDINGS ON SUNDAY. A large croud assembled attheChurch of fhe Epiphany this m'-ming, it hav ing been pre.iously announced-that Prince Arthur would attend service there. A number of policemen were present tojireserve order. The assem bly, however, was a' together peaceable, and actuated solely by curiosity to see His Royal Highness. About eleven o’clock he appeared walking with Mrs. Thornton and followed by Mr. Thom ton and' Colonel Elphinstone, and others of his suit. They were escorted from the sidewalk and through the vestibule by policemen, who opened the way for the distinguished party. The church was filled with the usual congregation and many . stringers. The Prince occupied a pew with iMrs. and Mr. Thornton. ■ Chicago, l>auvllle * Vincennes Railroad; In another column of this paper will be found an interesting advertisement of the First Mortage Bonds of the rail road running from the New York of the West through a richly productive portion of Illinois to Danville, 140 miles south. In crisp, sharp terras, the spe cial advantages of these Bonds are set forth bv the parties having their nego tiation in charge. The road does not traverse a “highly extolled wilderness,” w’hich gives morern-irerlrel &>r floe wri t ing than for dividends, but glvesaccrt>a and an outlet to a tier.ofcpunties whose market seeking produce, as ascertained from rccoid, would give freight to this railroad (at rates charged hy other roads of theSlnte) totheamountofsl.o47,34B 84. Add 50 per cent, for return freig fs from Chicago, 40 per cent, of freight earnings for passenger traffic, and 20 per cent, for through business and thatfrom connecting roads, and there is a pleas ant total of $2,637,300 for the 140 miles,* equal to 16,284 net earnings per mile per annum'. Add, again, ns legitimate and certain trade, the raw material and manufactured articles which this road will he the means of bringing from the deposits of iron ore along its line, the transportation of cal fiom the , beds which the road crosses, and theadvan tago which this line will have in being part of a Trunk Line to the South, many miles shorter than any other, and alto gether, the prospect for all concerned in the enterprise is a very bright one. . , Upon this exceedingly valuable prop erty the Constructing Company propose to effect a loan of 92,500,000, or $lB,OOO per mile, Mortage Bonds to the latter amount being issued upon the comple ted ro id as fast as built. We have shown that these Bonds are well secured—the first point for investois to satisfy them selves upon. They pay. 7 percent, gold interest for forty years which makes them profitable as well as safe;'and they arc presented and endorsed by a inor e ntlle house which, for forty years, has been as.atn.unch and reliable as theLow moor iron, for which they have been agents. Upon the whole, we do not see how any railroad project, thus founded, fortified, and endorsed, can be otherwise than a first-class investment. That ponderous blatherskite Nyo, who ‘‘represents” the howling wilder ness of Nevada in the United States Senate, stumbled against the wrong man in the Georgia debate the other day. “The Dem icrats never wentipto the war,” quoth he ; Trur man, of Ohio, thus responded: “tvh° says that?

STANTON’S DEMOCRATIC RECORD. -I am not the speohd defender of Mr. Stanton and I certainly would not assail him. Before he fell away from the Dem oorutld laith our friendship was intimate and close. There was no separation af terwards except the separation which is inevitable between twdipersnna who dif fer widely on public subjects believed by both lo be vitally important. , Ouroories pumlencu of. last summer and autiihiii t began by himself) shows that I «as able ■o forgive 111 in my parllou'ar share of the injury be bad done to the liberties of the country, anil he had my sincere good wishes lor his future health and welfare. His pul Ideal attitude towards the Bu chanan adniihislration previous to Itisap poiulment us Attorney Geiteiul Is wholly misunderstood of else wilfully mint’epre seoted. He was folly witli us at every s age uftbe Kansas qoesti o. and no man lelt a more loulhiog contempt than lie did fur die knave y of the uholitioniats In re'usiog to vole upon the Lecomptoo constitution, when nothing hot a vote was needed to expel slavery from Hie-uew Slate, and thus terminate the dispute b.\ deciding it the way which they them ’■■elves pretended t<> wln»n.\ denied Mr, Douglas’ notions, and blamed him severely for the unreachable and, .mischievous schism which he had cre ated 'D the party. The Know Nothing ism of Bell and Everett found no favor in his eyes. In the canvass ol 1860 he regarded the salvation of tne country as hanging upon the forlorn hope of Breck enridge’s election. We knew the aboli tionists to be the avowed enemies of the constitution and the Union, and, we thought the Republican*} would neces sarily be corrupted by their a iiance with them. o As we saw the march of these TToinhined forces upon, the capital we felt that the cna'llutionul liberties of the country were in as much peril us Rome was when the Gauls were pouring over the broken defencesof the city. Whether we were right or wrong is not the-ques iion now. It is enough to say that Mr. : Srduton shared these apprehensions fully. He more than shared them ; to some ex tent he inspired them, for he knew Mr. Lincoln personally, and the account he gave of him was anything but favorable. 5tR. LINCOLN’S ELECTION. I The 6th of November, came, and Mr. I Linwln v?« 3 legally chosen Pre»\d*»nt hy [ the-electoml machinery of the constitu tion, though the majority of the.popular 'vote wasaeuinst him by,more than a million. The question was now to be tested by actual experiment whether a party which existed only in one section; and which was organized on the sole principle ot hostility tq the rights. In terests and feelings of the other, could or woubladminister the federal government in a righteous Hpiritofjuatlce, of whether the predictions of all our great state-men for thirfy yearsmint he verified that the abolitionists when e they got into power w< uld disregard their sworn duty to the Constitution, break down the judicial authorities and claim obedience to their own mere will as,a ‘‘higher law” than the law ot the land* The danger was greatly aggrava ed hy the criminal mis- I conduct of lur e bodies in the tiouth, and particularly in South Carolina, where ; preparations were openly made for reals- I tance. What was the Federal Executive to do under these circumstances ? Make war? He had neither authority nor means (o do that, add Congress would not give him the one or the other. Should he compromise the dispute? . He could offer no terms and make no pledges which .w«mlcb not b» : rcn>udWi«»*t.hv the now ad ministration. On id tie mediate between the parties ? Both would refuse his urn • Iraue, for both were as hostile to him us they were to ooeanother. Nevertheless, 4je was bound to do them the best service ”e could, in,spheof their teeth; and that service consisted in preserving. the peace of the nation. It was his special and most imperative duty not to embroil the incoming administration hv a civil war wMeh ills successor might be unwilling »o approve or prosecute. It was undoubt edly right to leave the President elect and I is udvNers in a situation where. T hey could take their choice between comproinHhgaiid fighting In fact Mr. Lincoln was in favor of the former, if h e inaugural bo any sign of bis sent! meats Stanton’s position- The mind of no man was more deeply imbued with these opinions than Mr. .Stanton's. The idea never entered his head—certainly never passed his lips— that the President ought to make war upon Slates, or put the whole people out of the protection of the laws, and expose them all to Indiuorimluate slaughter as public enemies because some individuals among them have done nr threatened to do what was Inconsistent with their ob ligations to the United States. He knew very well that no such thing was either legally or physically possible. General Scott had leporled officially .that five companies constituted the whole availa ble fotoe which icould he sent to the South for any purpose offensive nr de fensive. Is it possible that Mr Stanton would have undertaken to conquer the South with half a regiment? He was thoroughly convinced that a war at that dine of that kind anil under those cir cumstances would not only “fire the Southern heart,” but give to the seces sionists the sympathy of all the world, and ultimately insure their success, while i; could not help but cripple, disgrace and'ruin the cause of the Union. Nor did he feel pleasure In the anticipation of any civil war between the two sections of his country. From the standpoint which he then occupied he said that war wasdlsunlotff it was blond, conflagration, terror and tears, public debt and general corruption of morals, all ending at beat not in the union of the States but In the subjugation of some to the despotic will of the others. He was apt to take a som bre view of things, and he looked at the dark si 'e of this subject. The glory, profit and plunder, the political distinc tion-and pride of power wh oh brighten it now, were not included m Ids prospec tive survey. STANTON ENPORSES BLACK. On tRe 2Pth of November I answered the President’s questions concerning his leva! powers and duties, holding that toe ordinance- of seeess'Oii were mere nulli ties; that the seceding States were amt would he ns much In the Union as ever ■ that the federal Kxeeutlve was Imunci theie as yell as elsewhere to execute the laws, to hold the public property and to collect $"o revenue; that If the means and machinery furnished by law for there pitrpo-es were Inadequate, he could not adopt btheis and usurp powers which had not Bbeu delegated; that neither (he 1 executive nor legislative department? hud authority under the oonstl’utlou t« make war upon a State: that the n't ’ nr ‘ power might be ,used, if necessary. ’«• alctlmr the Judicial authorities to exeoub the laws In collecting the revenues, l> defending or retaking the pupllft proper tv, butimt In acts of Indiscriminate h*s tiliry against all the people of u State This la the “opinion’* which has sine* been so often,eo ranch and sowell abused denounced and vllllfied. Mr. Stanton did not stultify himself by denying the plain, ohvlons and simple truths which It expressed. The paper was shown him hef(«e it went to the President, and aft»T a slight alteration suggested by himself, ho not only approved but applauded It enthusiastically. , . It disappointed the President- He had hastily taken It for granted that Congress might make secession a cause for war ;• and In the draft of his message already prepared he had submitted thequestlon of war dr pence to their decision. . But the advice of the Law Department, sup ported by a powerful argument from Gen. Cass, convinced him of his error, and that part of the message was rewiitten. The substance of the message so ihod I fled re ceived Mr. Stanton’s hearty endorsement In everything that regarded secession and the treatment it ought to receive. STANTON AS ATTORNEY GENERAL. 8< on after this General Cass retired. I was requested to f ake the State Depart ment and Mr. Stanton was appointed Attorney General, upon my declaring that I was unwilling to leave the care of Certain causes pending In the Supreme Court to any hands-but his* This ap polntmentalone. without any other proof, ought to sutlsfv any reasoning mind that all I have said of Mr. Stanton’s senti ments must be true. No man In his sober senses can believe that I would .iave urged, or that Mr. Buchanan would have • node the appnlntmentj- if we had- not hoth known with perfect certainty that he ns entirely on those fun •iamentardoctniies of constitutional law towhlch we were committed. Thefaint est suspicion of ihe contrary would’have, nut ’he Attorney General’s office-as fat* beyond his reaches the throne ol Prance. We took him for whaPhe. professed tqjjg a true friend of the Union, a devout believer in. the Constitution, a faithful man who would not violate his oath of vfflee bv wilful disobedience to the lawn- Fam still convinced that ho did no r de ceive us. If he abandoned those princi ples in 1802, the change, however -udden and‘ uTiaCcnun*ahle, is not satisfactory evidence that he was au Impostor and a hypherite In 1860 ' HedM ii*»t find Mr. Holt and General Dix contending a’one (or contending at all) against the President and the.rest of the administration. Mr. Holt, on-the 3d of Ma-ch. 1861, appended to bis letter of resignation a strong expression of his gratitude for Ihe “firm and generous ■rapport” which Mr Buchanan had con stantly extended to him, and p »ysa warm tribute to the “ enlightened statesman ship and unsullied patriotism” of the outgoing President, General Dix was not there at all when Mr. Stanton came In. He was appointed a month after wards, when there was no disagreement in the Cabinet- He tok up his resi dence at the President’s house as a mem ber of the family, and remained there, during the whole time of his service as head of the Treasury Department. .He performed his duty faithfully, and in u way which met with universal approbation. I do not recollect that he hud one word of serious controversy with the President or with anybody else. If, therefo e, Mr. Stanton was at ariy time engaged in dragooning the President and hectoring his colleagues, he'could not have bed Mr. Holt and General Dix for his backers. DISSENSIONS TN THE CABINET. There were disputes and serious differ ences of opinion in the Cabinet during the period of Mr. Stanton’s service ; but his share in them has not been truly stated lam not writing the history of those times, and therefore I say nothing of what other-* did or forbore to do, ex optso >nr as may he necessary to show Mr. Btanton’ffacts and omissions in their true light. THE OCCUPATION OP FORT SUMTER. ' Before, the election it was determined that the forts in ( harleston harbor should he strengthened so as to make them im pregnable. Theorder was given, hut (he execution of it wn*s unaccountably put off. When General Cass aseertafned’that the delay was acquiesced in by the Presideut he resigned. Two weeks after vards Maj. Anderson, commanding F-rt Moultrie, andjappreheriding an attack, threw his garrison into Fort Sumter. Simultane ously came certain commissioners from South Carolina, demanding the surreu der of the latter to the State. The char acter of the answer that should be given to the commissioners and the question whether Port Sumter should be furnished with men and provisions were discussed for three days, each day running far into the night. ACTION OF THE CABINET. On the one side it was insisted that the surrender of the fortress was so utterly incompatible with our plainest duty that the demand Itself was a gross insult. To lertve it in a condition which would ena- h’e rebellious citizens to take It if they pleased was still worse, f»r that would be merely another mode of making the surrender, and a worse one. because it would be fraudulentand deceptive. Maj. Anderson should, therefore, he imme diately so reinforced that “his cattle’s strength would laugh a siege to sonfni**' and then, no attack would he made This last, instead of being d mgerous, was the only measure that gave up a chance of. safety; it would not bring on hostilities, hut avert them, anil, If war must come at oil eve- ts. the possession of Fort Sum ter, which commanded the other forts, the harbor and the citv v would be o’f in ealoulab'e value tlrtho ghvernhient of the Union. To this there was absolutely no answer, except what consisted in saying that the fort could not he relieved wilhnot diffi culty ami dnngerof successful opposition; that South Carolina would take It as an affront, and that it was tantamount to a threat of coercion. The replication was easily made: There was no dan-er of even an 'attempt at resistance to a ship of war; the statements made of the hos tile power were mere brag; if South Carolina took offence at our preparation for the safely of.our own men end our own property she mu-t already he In a temper to make reconciliation' Impossi ble; and, as to’coeroion, let her take care not to coerce us, aud she will be safe enough. At length the President produced his di ciplon in the form of an answer to the commissioners. While it was far from satlslaoto-y to the Southern members, ft filled us wlth consternation anti grief. Then came the oespeiate struggle of. one alone to do what all Had failed to ef fect. It was palpful In the extreme, but unexpectedly short and decisive. The President gave up his first ground, yield ed the points on which be had seemed most tenacious; the answer to Soulh Carolina was essentially changed, and it was agreed that Fort Sumter should have men and provisions. STANTON’S SHARE IN THE BUSINESS. During these discussions, Mr. ftanton was always tiue, hut the part he took was by no means a leading one. He ssld many times that he was thei#only that I might have two votes instead of one. One no occasion-was there the slightest O'uifliot between him and me. He ex hibited none of the coarseness which some of tils later friends have attributed to him. He never spoke without the greatest respeot for his colleagues, and the profoundest-deferenoe to the Piesl dent. He eald no word to the President about resigning. He told me that he would resign If I did ; but when certain concessions were made to my wishes he expressed Himself perfectly satisfied. He did not furnish one atom of the Influence which brought the President found on the answer to South'Carolina. Nor did he ever propose or carry any me isure of his own, directly or indirectly, relating to the secession troubles. He uniformly professed to be as anxious for the preser ve lon of the public peace as any man there It would.he a wrong to the memory of Mr. Stanton not to add that ep fuf Os I know he never gave countenance or en couragement to those fabulous stories of bis behavior.

Correspondence American Volunteer. Washington, Jan. 22d, 1«70. Tho Virginia bill has boon disposed of at last not, however. Until It had been saddled .by an amendment requiring the reconstructed Vir gin Inna to subscribe to an oath, three times a*- long ns .tho moral law; and - the addition o* another promise that tho provision of their con stitution conferring universal suffrage was to bo repealed. Tho Republican Senators al* voted "for the hill, but the Democrats declared they wore nnwllllng to have Virginia corao In nndor these humiliating-conditions, and voted against tho bill. Thurman, Sanlsbnty, Stock ton and others demanded that Virginia. If sh» was to become a state of the Union, should be an equal and IndepondentSlate. Tho amepdea bin now goes to the House, where It Is supposed Roller will bo able to bring over enough of weal* kneed Republicans who supported the forme* House bill, and that ho will either succeed In passing the Senate bill, or kill tho matter entire ly in committee, which will still leave Virginia nut in the cold. Speaking of the contest in the House, the New York Post says the forty.nlne members who voted against unconditional admission, on tbe original House bill, •* voted to break the solemn ly pledged faith'of Congress, and to perpetuate disunion;" and adds, •• wo are sorry to say they arc dll Republicans." Ot coarse tfie Republican party has "solemnly broken Uspllgbtod faith," but then that Is nothing new. it baa never yet given utterance to a single pr inciple, which It has not broken before the people. Ihe Republi can party wont into power on tbe plodge, In their national platform, that" tae g uaranteo by Con gross of.oqaal suffrage to all loyal men at the Sout£ was demanded by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude, and of Justice, and must bo maintained ; while the question of suffrage in all the logal Slates property belongs to the people oj those Stoles.” - - power once obtained, and tho Republican par;. ty at once broke faitu. It la driving tho Ilf teenth amendment along with whip and spar, which takes away,from-lbo loyal States what •• properly belongs to the people of those States,” —the control of '• the question of suffrage.” The Republican party went into power on the pledge that •* it Is due to the labor of the nation that taxation shou d bo equalized''and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will permit.” Pow er once obtained, -and' the .Republican partjfr broke its faith, General Grant recommends that the tariff swindle shall stand as It Is, In the face of an enormous surplus that Is now a Washington squandering by millions a day.— Tho odious Internal Revenue law. which taxis the poor and lets the rich go free—ls to remain as It was. The Republican party went .Into power on the pledge that “the government o; the United States should be administered wttl thestrlotesteconpmy, and thecorruptlons which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson [whom they themselves elected] call loudly for radical refo> m.” Power got, and tho Republican party at onro broke faith. Mr. Dawes Is a witness from the! r own ranks that their talk of economy was <i pre tense, their denunciation of corruption a plen of hypocrisy, their pledge of reform a fraud.— The economical estimates for this year’s expens es are outrun by millions, and the people's mon ey Js sqnandored-Ho reokleftsly that even hones* Radicals cry out In protest, Speaking of Mr. Dawes, his speech, this week, 'went crashing like a thunderbolt through the radical ranks* He showed ihnt'notwithstanding all their, clamor aboxd economy .and reform, the expe f, st* of during the first year of Grant's od ministration- exceeded die last year of President Johnson's administration by $40,082,637.01. He proved itfroip tho figures submitted by the va rious, departments, and he went even farther.— Ho said: “ I think I have a right to complain of the othdr end of.the avenue, that with a[i Us pro fessions of economy and reduction of unnecessa ry force In the departments, with all tho.herald ing, by telegraph and otherwise, of Its purposi of reduction, there Is not one of these depart meats that does not estimate to-day, for a vast Increase of expenditure, even over lost year!" So much for radical economy os exhibited b> one of the high priests in the radical synagogue. Th? members have subscribed to Mr.'Dawes'* speech, and will circulate It to Convict the Re publican party, ont of Its own mouth, of Its fatso pretences in the line of retrenchment and reform. As another Instance of radical economy, I see it stated that the looking glasses in the In ternal Revenue office at Washington cost thirty thousand dollars 1 This Is the kind of economy the radicals practice at Washington, and espe cially in the Treasury Department, and the peo ple are taxed on an cney eac, wear ana consume, to pay the bills.

But It Is a waste »f good ink to bo discussing a question of tasto with this administration. It has all sorts ofsensebubasonvo of propriety. There is, how ever, a Utile Inner history connected with this equestrian statue worth giving to tho public.— Tho work originates In Philadelphia, under the direct supervision of Plg-lron Kelley. And this accounts for certain lacteal Hums In ihq cocoa nut Up tea oei tain time I't was believed, If not known, that the President sympathized with Western interest. Governor Hayes, for exam ple, hud a very satisfactory talk on that subject with the General, and said tnat his views sound ed os if based on Hi* statistics of David A. Wells.' When however, hla massage made Its appear ance there was found a total revolution, and all tho might of tho administration was brougb t to bear In favo* of the present infamous inequali tyl of taxation under which 'Western interests are being burled. And soon it was whispered about that part of the message had beep prepare ed and put in by old Pig-iron Kelley himself.— Tho bronzo horse hqd proved more fatal to the Interests of the . poor man, 1 * than the wooden steed ofTroy.
