Choose this chilly season,
And lovers fail to writing rhyme,
Without much show of reaeog. •
But I assure you, my young friend,
That no gay Valentine '
Which to your lady you can send,
Will seem to her so fine,
As if you visit her, full drest
In a rich snit of Bmm'r'r's best.

VALENTINE
TO A BADLY DRESS= HUN,
BY a..l.ady.
For shame, young man ! with such attire
You'll never set this heart on fire,—
Your vicious style and taste in dress,
Betray neglect and carelessness;
Your clothing's costly, I admit,
But nothing on you seems to fit!
Good taste and fashion you disgrace,
And have no good point, but your fees ;
In fact, if you go on this way,
11l turn my thoughts some other way,
And leave you sorrowing to lament
That you dress'd so unlike agent.
There's /dr. Snooks, the other night,
Was quite apteture to my sight,
(Now don't be jealous, for the elf
Is far tess foamed than yourself),
But all BIS garments, though notnew,
I,ook'd better far than those on you,
And made me curiously awake
To find who might his clothing make.
I ask'd him where ?—eald he, "Not far,
"I always patronise the 'STAR,
"There, having been attired with grace,
"I'l4 never seek 1170TECES prams;
"No 111-dress'd person need despair,
"But, , simply,juat get fitted there."
Don't you think, sloven as you are,
You'd better travel to the "STAB?"
Iftsicir dr, Co. (yea, that's the name),
Nay still wipe out your former shame.
Transform you (for he says theycan)
Into a "marvelous proper man."
Well, all that I can say Is this;
CiothesjWing you were not omit:.
your past neglect throw in the shade,
Or I will keep the threat I made.
But seek the "Sken," in MAILICION thine,
Then—you shall be my Valentine,

A TANGLED NoTr.
A good many years ago, a certain Mr.
Gliddon and a certain Dr. Nott pub
lished a work on the Types of Mankind,
which attracted some attention. They
also delivered some lectures on Egypt
ian Antiquities, one of which, at least,
became famous. These two scientific
gentlemen were mighty readers of hiero
glyph, and they deciphered the inscrip
tions of the Pyitamids and Catacombs
with the ease of a child reading Comly's
Primer. It came to pass that an Egypt
ian mummy fell into their hands,which
they decided to be that of an Egyptian
Princess of the blood. There was no
doubt about it. Her pocket handker
chief was marked with her monogram,
she had a pack of visiting cards in her
pocket, and in fact there was a complete
history of her birth, parentage and
education written all over`her outer in
teguments. The opportunity for a
display of scientific knowledge was too
good to be lost, and the "hub of the
universe" was selected for a grand
ethnological séance, where the venerable
mummy was to be unwrapped, and the
infallibility of Gliddon the Great and
Nott the Notable, made known to all
men. The lecture came off and so did
the mummy's wrappers, but—the Prin
cess was not there. In place of her
Egyptian Highness, there came to light
the somewhat dissimilar form of a negro
slave, and a man at that.
We have not heard of Dr. Nott since,
and we had almost come to suppose that
Nott was not, but we were mistaken.
The distinguished ethnologist has turned
up in Mobile, and has written a letter to
General Howard, on the subject of the
Freedmen's Bureau, which is funnier
than his Egyptian Princess. Four of
the broad columns of the National In
telligencer are occupied by Nott in a
learned lecture to General Howard upon
,his duties, his responsibilitieti and the
hopelessness of his attempts to benefit
the negro race. After informing the
General that he naturally knows noth
ing at all about the negro or the slavery
question, he goes on to convince him (if
he can) that slavery is a blessing and
freedom a curse to the negro. He ex
plains to him , that the African race be
comes miserable just in proportion as
it becomes educated. He asserts
that the . best educated are the most vi-
cious, and cites the colored clergyman,
as a class, as the worst form of humanity
yet developed. He informs General
Howard that so long as, a negro cannot
read or write, he is "moral, pious, hon
est and useful,"'but the moment he ap
proaches the Pierian spring the process
of demoralization commences, and pro
gresses with c irresistible force.
This great ethnologist mentions one
fact which will be interesting as correct
ing popular history. He ,tells General
_Howard that " not a single full-blooded
TOWER FALL,
No. 518 Market Street,
BENNETT dr, CO.
negro has ever made a name worthy of
beingremembered." We do not rein.em
ber any Ethiopian ethnologist who has
ever unrolled an Egyptian mummy, but
there are a few names which have con
trived to become pretty well known,
whose owners had no drop of any but
African blood in their veins. Dr. Nott
may never have heard of Benjamin
Banneker, the mathematician and as
tronomer, to whom Thomas Jefferson
wrote, " nobody wishes more than I do
to see such proof as you exhibit that
Nature has given to our black brethren
talents equal to those other Of the colors of
men, and that the appearance of a want
of them is owing only to the degraded
condition of their existence, both in
Africa and America." But can it be
possible that Dr. Nott has never heard
of Toussaint L' Ouverture? If he has
not, we hope General Howard will send
him his biography.
After wading laboriously through
column after column of disquisitions
upon the impossibility of improving the
negro race, Dr. Nott suddenly startles
us with the announcement that the con
clusion of the whole matter may be
briefly stated thus : "Remove ,your bu
reau and the United States troops (par
ticularly blacks) as speedily as possible
from our soil, and leave the relations be
tween the races to regulate themselves."
This wise man of Mobile so far forgets
himself and so flatly contradicts the first
part of his argument as to promise
General Howard that if he will
only take his odious bureau away,
the South will "in due time educate the
negroes." To be sure, according to his
prior argument, the "due time" will be
never, but it is so important that the
South should be "let alone" that he is
ready to promise anything.
But a brilliant thought strikes Gen
eral Howard's ethnological instructor.
"There is something for the Freedmen's
Bureau to do. Yes, we can give you a
job. We will turn over to you all our
old and infirm colored paupers, and you
can feed and clothe them for us." Gen
eral Howard must see the point at a
glance. General Howard and his friends
the abolitionists brought all this trouble
upon the country, at least, so says J. C.
Nott, M. D., and, in the learned doctor's
eloquent language, the North "must
`pay out,' or see the victims of your
policy starve."
We should not devote so much space
or time to this absurd letter to General
Howard, if it did not furnish a strong
additional proof of the utterly diseased
condition of the Southern mind on the
whole subject of its relations to the freed
men. In this, and in no other, light,
it has a value, and it reads a new lesson
of the need of going forward cautiously
and deliberately in the process of re
storing these people to the full exercise
of civil rights. If their wise men are so
blinded by their prejudices against the
race which they have so long held in
bondage, what can we hope from the
uncultivated and ignorant masses of
their people?
THE PRESIDEN T AND THE DEMO.
CHATS.
The Democratic party is making des
perate efforts to appropriate President
Johnson. To read the laudation of him
published in Copperhead newspapers; to
see how such portions of his utterances,
as suit their purposes, are reprinted anti
be-puffed, and be-praised; to see how
they head their calls for Ward meetings
with the new Shibboleth "Johnson and
Democracy!"—to see and hear all these
things almost makes us doubt the truth
of history and the evidence of our own
senses.
Have these Copperhead managers for
gotten that during the rebellion just
ended one of the most earnest advocates
of the Union and determined opposers
of treason was Andrew Johnson, and
for this very loyalty and devotion to the
cause of the Union he was bitterly
assailed; no term of abuse being too vile,
no slander too coarse, and no lie too
infamous to utter against him? Have
these Copperheads forgotten that on the
distinct issues of loyalty upon the one
hand and undisguised sympathy with
armed traitors upon the other, the election
of 1864 was held? Have they forgotten
that every State not in open wicked
rebellion against the Government,voted,
and that the Democratic ticket carried
but three States, to wit : Kentucky,
Delaware and New Jersey, two of which
were border slave States, and scarcely
half-hearted in their allegiance to the
laVful national authorities? Have they
forgotten, too, that while this withering
popular rebuke was administered to
Copperheadism, the same enthusiastic
loyalty which defeated McClellan and
Pendleton, gave to Lincoln and John
son a majority without precedent in the
history of American politics?
The Democratic party has long been
distinguished for the possession of a
quality that is vulgarly but pithily
called "cheek." But this latest exhibi
tion of the quality outbrasses the brassi
ness of any former display. Have they
the sublime assurance to say that the
President has become Tylerized; that he
has deserted the principles upon which
he was elected and the party which
elected him, and thrown himself into
the arms of his bitterest foe? Or do they
admit the error of their own ways, and
prove their contrition by coming in at
the thirteenth hour tothe support of the
Government, when the latter is no
longer in need of their support? Ac
cording 'to all the rules of logic, the Cop
perheads have put themselves in a
dilemma, and it will not serve their
purpose that they are trying to get the
President upon one of its horns.
Mr. Lincoln's greatness and goodness
were never discovered by the Democracy
untilbe was murdered. In the case of
Mr. Johnson they are more prompt in
THE DAILY EVhNING BULLETIN' : PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1866:
their praise; but it is only , in the hope
of thereby expediting his slaughter poli
tically. It is a very sharp little game of
"cheek," but we are inclined to think
that it will not answer its intended
purpose.
CONSPIBACY AGAILNIST OUR FINANCES
The recent attacks made by the Lon
don Times on our national and com
mercial credit are explained. & letter
to a morning contemporary says that
the State Department has positive evi
dence of the existence of a widely ex
tended conspiracy, in Europe and
Canada, to affect our national finances,
to create a panic abroad about American
securities, and thus to bring on a finan
cial crisis in this country. The proof
sheets of a pamphlet, .prepared by a
Canadian, named Vernow, have been
obtained, the title of which is: "Repu
diation of the National Debt Inevitable
—lmpossible to Pay the Interest and
Support the Government—The Farmer,
Artisan and Laborer Slaves to Shoddy
and Wall Street."
It has been ascertained also that this
Vernow has been corresponding with
the Rothschilds and other European
bankers, with Earl Russell, with the
London Times and with certain Paris
journals, and all of these are more or less
implicated in the plot to impair our
credit and bring on a commercial revul
sion. Thus far the scheme has utterly
failed, but it is fortunate that the dis
covery of the conspiracy has been made.
It is well to know that the parties who
tried to destroy our government and
failed, have changed their policy and
are now trying to destroy its credit. We
can combat them as effectually on this
field as we did on the field of battle.
It is deplorable that Tennyson should
ever have written a poem and called it
"In Memoriam." The phrase has come
into use in the newspapers to a degree
that is nauseating. Every one that
wants to advertise his sorrow for the
death of anybody heads his silly prose
or sillier verse with "In Memoriam."
Even Mr. Bancroft's oration was fur
nished with this tasteless caption by,
his Washington printers. We have
had, at various times, scores of elegiac
verses so headed, and one or two
headed "In Mcmorium," which was a
somewhat refreshing variation, and just
as intelligible Latin, for the general
public, as the other. We protest against
any further profanation of Mr. Tenuy
son's title, and beg everybody to try
and express his grief hereafter in plain
English.
