EVENING BULLETIN WE 1.: 'DAY, APRIL 18, 1866. WHAT CONSEILVATIS2ti A Richmond paper of a very recent date said in substance that Diogenes had very indifferent success in looking for honest men; but that if he could set out upon a search for Union men in Virginia, at the present time, he would burn his candle for nothing. This is a frank ac knowledgment, and, we believe, pretty nearly a truthful statement. The more intelligent Virginians accept the situa tion to the extent of an acknowledgment of the fact that they were worsted in the great conflict; but no further than this. They hold that they are martyrs in a holy cause, they refuse to acknow ledge the heresy of secession, and they cannot yield the idea that they are the chivalry of the land and the natural and appropriate rulers of the country. They admit that they have been unfortunate, but they deny that they have done any wrong and they coolly demand that they, should be allowed forthwith to re-enter the councils of the nation, to control the Government, if possible, and when it suits their purpose,to repeat the experi ment of 1861. We do not assert thus much from mere surmise; but from the most authoritative Virginian utterances, and from recent extended personal inter course with a large number of out-spoken Virginians upon their own soil. Frank men among their number, while insist-. ing upon their right to take a full share in the government of the country, did. not conceal the fact that they,hope and • expect, with the aid of. Northern Demo crats, to give the South its old ascen dancy at Washington. • Are the loyal people of, the country ready to accept this condition of:things Its the result of the great struggle through which the country has passed? Are they prepared to see Jefferson Davis in the Cabinet of the Federal executive; to see Robert E. Lee holding high com mand in the Federal army, and to see Raphael Semmes an Admiral in the Federal navy? Are they ready to re store the old era of Preston S. Brooks, James H. Hammond and John C. Breckinridge? Are they ready to forget the life and death of the great and good Lincoln ? And will they tell the crip pled men in blue, and the mourning mothers and widows whose loved ones sleep upon Southern battle-fields, that all their sacrifices were for nought ? And are the people who have paid thou sands of millions of treasure that the nation might live, and in order that the crime of trenon should be made odious and punitihef--are they to be told that their holes were a delusion and their expectations a mistake, and that all this great cost was for nothing ? We give it as a solemn' conviction, •.basedapo.n ample observation,lthat the Southern people are notchangeiliin sen timent since the war; 'that they are 'beaten but not . subdued,:and that 'they •onlydesire to assertalostsupremacy,and to destroy the - Union when it no longer servestheir purpose to preserve it. The so-called conservatism of the day tends to the consummation so eagerly desired by the "reeonstructed South." Are the people who hlove •the Union, and who stood by it in its time of greatest peril, ready to -give 'their countenance and support to this description of "recon struction ?"

We have repeatedlyrecommended and urged the establishment of a Soldiers' Messenger Corpsin Philadelphia similar to that which has been in operation in Boston and New York. We are glad to see that our suggestions have at length been acted upon, and that such an or ganization of public messengers has been formed. To-day, for the first time, the men have appeared at their posts in va rious parts of the city. They are desig nated by a uniform red cap, with a white band bearing the name of the corps and each messenger's number. The men, about sixty in number, areall honorably discharged soldiers, selected carefully with reference to their honesty and reliability, the Messenger Company being responsible for the prompt and faithful delivery of parcels or execution of work. A table of charges has been established, on a very moderate basis, and a ticket showing the amount re ceived is to be given by the messenger to his employer, which will prevent any improper charge. The messengers can also be engaged for a certain time to clean offices, move furniture, watch merchandise, stores, ship sand buildings, day or night, 45.-,c. We heartily recommend this new en terprise to the cordial support of our citizens. There is not a business estab lishment in Philadelphia that cannot easily and advantageously throw some occupation into these brave fellows' hands every day. There are innumera ble little errands and commissions which will be promptly and properly attended to by the Messenger Corps much more conveniently than can be done by the regular employ6s of our merchants, law yers, tradesmen, or other branches of industry. We hope this encouragement will be freely extended by the commu nity generally. On the part of the men the public will expect good habits, good manners, strict punctuality, prompt execution of their vork, neat personal appearance, and a rigid adherence to their regular terms and prices. Men who fail in any one of these particulars will fail of any success themselves, and will injure the reputa tion of the whole enterprise. The agent of the Company is Mr. W. C. White man, 42l Walnut street, and any dere liction Of duty on the part of the mes sengers should be promptly :reported to him. Let these gallant soldiers, many of whom have been maimed and wound ed in the service, have a fair chance to earn an honest living, and the benefit which they derive from the establish ment of this Messenger C9rps will be shared by all who encourage and em ploy them Important Sale—Valuable Real Estate. lattAlB Thomas a Sons'sale ion Tuesday, 24th inst., • will Include the valuable Business Stands 131 Maager and 120 and 122 Joarsts al res;;; Brown Stone Residence. 1534 Pine so reet; modern Residence ;717 Pine street; two valuable Itesldencea, GERMANTOWN. one on Stenton avenue and the other on Main street; Country Residences, Bristol turnpike and H imrsburg; Estates of D.
