Ji l re/es " the Ilalter for Intelligent- Tailors,'' and thinks "Death too Easy \ t Eiiuishmtnt." f Wc republish below Andrew Jolin -8 .n's great speech, made at Willard's j Hotel, in Washington City, on tlie 3d j of April, six days prior to the surren- i dor of Lee, and suggest that it be read ; at the meeting of the Johnson Club j of this place, that is, if another meet- : ing is hold. The then Vice President said : Wo are now. my friends, winding up a rebellion—a great effort has been made by bad men to overthrow the j Government of the United States—a ■ Government founded upon free prin ciples and cemented by ihe best blood ot the Revolution. [Cheers.] You must indulge me in making one single , remark in regard to myself. At the , time that the traitors in the Senate of the United States plotted against the Government and entered into a eon : spiraey more foul, more execrable, and more odious than that of Catalinc against the Romans. 1 happened to be i a member of that body, and, as to loy ally, stood solitary and alone among - t lie Senators f rom the Southern States. 1 was then and there called upon to know what I would do with such trait ors, ami T want to repeat my reply here. 1 said, if wc had an Andrew Jackson, he would hang them as high as Hainan, [cheers,] but as he is no more, and sleeps in his grave in his own beloved State, where traitors and treason have even insulted his tomb, and the very earth that coveis his re mains,— humble as I am, when you ask me what 1 would do, my reply is, 1 would arrest them. I would try them, 1 would convict them, and I would hang them. [Prolonged cheers] As humble as I am and have been. I have pursued but one undeviating course. Ail that I have—life, limb and property —have been put at the disposal of tlie country in this great struggle. 1 have beert in camp, 1 have been in the field, I have been every where where this great rebellion was. i have pursued it until I believe I can now Bee its termination. Since the world began there never has been a rebellion of such gigantic propor tionspso infamous in character, so dia bolical in motive, so entirely disregard ful of the laws of civilized war. Jt has introduced the most savage mode of warfare ever practiced upon the eai lit. I will repeat hero a remark, for which 1 have been in no small degree censured What is it, allow me to ask that has sustained the nation in this great struggle? The cry has been yon know, that our Government was not strong enough lor a lime ot rebellion; that in such a time she would have to contend against internal foes. We have now given tho world evidence that such is not the fact; and when the rebellion shall have been crushed out, and the nation shall once ag. in 1 ave settled down in peace, our Government •A ill re t upon a more enduring basis than ever before. Bj.it, my friends, in what has the great strength of this Government consisted? lias it been in the one man power? Has it been in some autocrat or in some one man who held absolute government? No! 1 thank (rod 1 have it in my power to proclaim the great truth that this Government has derived its strength from the Ameri , can people. They have issued tho edict; fhov have ''xcreisod *ho pn*.rw £2I££IFiLL ? S!r IPISSTSSa . that has resulted in the overthrow of ; the rebellion, and there is not another Government on the face of the earth . that could have withstood the shock, i [Cheers.] 1 We can now congratulate ourselves | that we possess the strorgest, the fro | est and the best Government tlie world i ever saw. [Great applause] Thank God that we have lived through this trial, and that looking in your intelli ' gent faces here to day, 1 can announce i to you the great tact that Petersburg, j the outpost to the strong citadel, has • been occupied by our brave and gallant j officers and untiring and invincible sol diers. [Great cheering.] And not ; content with that they have captured i tlie citadel itself—the stronghold of : traitors Richmond is ours, arid is now j occupied by tl e forces of the l T nited j States? [Tremendous cheers ] Iler gates have been entered, and the glo i rious stars and stripes, the emblem of : the Union of power, and of suprema : cy, now float over the enemy's Capitol. | [Great cheering.] In the language of another, let that old flag rise higher and higher,until it meets the sun in his coming, and let tlie parting day linger to play upon its ample folds. [Cheers ] Jt is the flag of your country, it is your flag, it is my flag, and it bids defiance to all the j nations of the earth, and to the en- ; croachmentsofall the powers combined [Renewed cheering ] it is not my intention to make any imprudent remarks or illusions, but the hour will come when these nations that exhibited towards us such inso onee and improper interference in the midst of our adversity, and as they j supposed, of our weakness, will learn that this is a Government of the peo- i pie, possessing power enough to make itself felt and respected. [Cheers.] In the midst of our rejoicing we must not forget todropatearforthose gallant fellows who have shed their i blood that their Government might triumph. We cannot forget them when we view the many bloody fields of war, the new made graves, our maimed friends and relatives who have left their limbs, as it were, on tlie , enemy's soil, and others who have been consigned to their long, narrow houses, with no winding sheet save their blankets saturated with their' blood. One word more and I have done. — It is this: I am in favor of leniency. : But in my opionion, evil doers should he punished. [Cries ol "That's so.' ] i Treason is the highest crime known in tlie catalogue of crimes, and for him i that is guilty of it —for him that is : willing to lilt his impious hand against 1 tlie authority of the nation —1 would j say death is too easy a punishment.— [Loud cheers ] -My notion is thai treason must be made odious, that t rait- j ois must be pimishedand impoverished, their social powers broken they must ' be made to feel the penalty of their : crime. You my friends have traitors 1 iu your very midst, and treason needs j rebuke and punishment here as well as elsewhere. It is not tlie men in the field who are the greatest traitors. It is the men j who have encouraged them to imperil i their lives, while they themselves have i remained at home expending their means ard exerting all their power to • OVCITIDW tho Government. Ilencc 1 ! say this: "The halter to intelligent, j influential traitors." [ Loud cheers.] But to the honest boy, to the deluded man, who lias been deluded into the rebel ranks, 1 would say, return to your : allegiance, renew your support to the j Government, and become a good eiti zen; but the leaders I would hang.— : [Great cheering.] | I held too that wealthy traitors | should be made to remunerate those ■ men who have suffered, as a conse quence of their crime—Union men who have lost their property, who have been driven from their homes, beggars and wanderers among stran gers. It is well to talk about these things here to-day, in addressing tho well informed persons who compose 1 this audience. You can to a very great extent, assist in moulding public | opinion, and in giving it a proper di rection. Let us commence the work We • have put down these traitors in arms; 1 let us put them down in law, in pub ; lie judgment, in the morals ot the world. [Great cheers.] Permit me to i propose three cheers for the capturo of I Richmond. nr . !

A young lady rebuked by hor mother for .kissing her lover, justified the act by quoting the passage— | " Whatever ye would that men should ' do you. do ye even so to them " Vol. LVI. No. 21. A. A.X>_ Importance of Gravel Stones for Fowl?. Did you ever dissect the gizzard of a hen, turkey, goose or duuk? The gizzard and gravel stones in it, serve the purpose of teeth, in reducing the food to email particles, or, in other words, to facilitate digestion. The | food is swallowed in chunks, or the | grain is received into the crop unbro- I ken. Hero all substances arc softened ! and passed, a little aba time, through ' the gizzard, which is surrounded by | strong muscles; and when food is pass : ing through it, it dilates and contracts similar to the motion of a bellows, and the tood, kernels of grain, coming in contact with the gravel stones is sep | a rated and torn to pieces. Alter this process is completed the food is diges ted. These little mill stones, as it were, uo not remain long in the giz zard; they are carried out with the food, and a new set is thus brought ; along to be ground. Now if the fowls are confined, as they often arc, while they cannot have access to all the sharp gravel they need, their digestion j must be imperfect, and they cannot do well, especially if fed on whole grain. ; Fowls need sharp gravel within their ; reach, to swallow every day; and if they do not have a range, gravel : should be kept by them, in their euclo ; sr. res. — Boston Cultivator. Improving Garden .Soils, 'll.O first step should be to under draw. the garden thoroughly. That means tile laid two and a'ha'l feet deep, and the drains tight or ton feet apart. Make the drain shallow, so as to dry the surface of the ground quick ly. and so that the air passing up the drains may reach and benefit the plants readily. Put them close together so that every foot of ground may come within their influence, and so that as cending water in the spring, may be arrested ere it reaches the surface. If the soil contains too much clay, is heavy and difficult to pulverize, draw on sand ami mix with it. If on the contrary it is too light, apply clay— , you can generally find it in the subsoil, and such trenching is the very best tiling to be done. You want plenty of I vegetable mould in the garden, and ! this can be supplied readily by cutting sods from the road side or fence cor ners, uid piling them up until thor oughly decayed. A fine compost may bo made with sods, barn.yard manure, plaster, &t\, and it forms the best fer tilizer. all things considered, that can I be applied to a garden.. Manure should decay sufficiently to destroy the vital ! ity of seeds of weeds which may be in ; it, and this can be accomplished eco nomically in a hot bed. —Rural X. \ Yorker.
