.'HISTORY OF PENNSYLVANIA VOLUNTEERS,
Impared,in complituace with Actsof the Leg-.
islatnre, by Samuel P. Bat*
,Meni.:nf the
Blst: .Boc. of Penn - Sylvania." flarrisbitrg.
In 1864 our Legislature previded ! for the
compilation of a mffitarrlaisicrry Otthe
minden of Pennsylvania *Aura e= and
militia "who have been or may be in the
field." An net of April 17, 1867, , 5et forth
more explicitly the scope of the proposed
record. In 1866 Gov. Curtin made the judi-
MOUS- alniOiritnient of Jar. Samuel P. Bates,
to the office of State Historian, for the par
.
pose,and our present Governor has extended to
the official every courtesy and assistance. Of
the labor - that hat filled up the interval
we now begin to get the result, in
a magnificent first volume. This is a soya
°duo of 1,327 pages, worthy of the State.
It contains a full, and we believe remarkably
accurate, history of the first fifty regiments
recrpited in Pennsylvania,with complete lists
of officers and men, date of forrnation,and of
recruiting headquarters. The rolls are in
riot so prepared as to snow the main items of
the record of each individual soldier. A
death record, with place and number of grave,
of th ose who expired in the South, is incor
porated, as completely as data now received
will allow : corrections in this, and more
complete data, are - promised for the second
volume.
The first volume,as an earnest of a difficult
and painful, however proud, undertaking, is
calculated to make us glory in our State, first
for the enorrrions contribution to the per
sonnel of,?,the war, as herein indicated, and
next for !the care she shows in arranging her
glory-roll with emphasis and magnificence
forthe r future historian.
Mi. S. P. Bates is to be congratulated for
the'starrip of completeness and accuracy he
has:tritcceeded in impressing on his trying
labor - . He has let us see the war record of
stir tats in advance of that of nearly all the
other States, and in a form incomparably
the, 'Most superb of any similar compila
tions yet put forth.
For solid, permanent, well-wearing beauty
we ban find no edition to exceed that in which
Putnam & Co. bring out the works of drying
under the name of the Knickerbocker Edi
tion. The volume just out contains the
tiptmish Papers of that most genial of histo
rians. There was nothing he entered into more
.con amore than the investigation of obscure
nooks and corners in the history of Spin,
the country where residence was to him such
an exquisite pleasure. The present volume,
a large one of .531 pages,.contains the "Le
gends of the Conquest of Spain,"with various
other Legends, relative to the Moorish wars,
-edited by Mr. Pierre Irving, and selected
by him from the posthumous mss. bequeathed
to bim for revision. These all breathe the
interest and animation indicated by that letter
in which Irving remark's: "Those old
.Moriseo-Spanish subjects have a charm that
makes me content to write about them at half
price; they have so much that is high-minded,
and chivalrous, and quaint, and picturesque,
and Lat times, half comic, about them." The
volume is prefaced by a particularly beautiful
head fof Irving taken from a drawing executed
by. Wilkie at the epoch of Irving's life at
Seville. J. K. Simon, agent, No. 29 South
Sixth •street.
We receive from the Philadelphia agent,
Mr. J. B. Simon, 29 South Sixth street, the
December number of the National (guar
terly Review, edited by Dr. Edward I.
Sears. It opens with a long desultory article,
condensed from about a dozen separate au
thorities and not very well digested, on the
ancient and modern infernal divinities.—The
second paper is on early Christian literature,
and contains some very interesting accounts
of the apocryphal books once considered as
belonging to the New Testament, and a short
mentiortof most of the early fathers.—" The
Sorrows of Burns," form the
.sub
ject of an interesting biographi
cal chapter.—Bartlett's treatise on Ac
coustics and Herschel's on Sound are
welded into a careful article embodying most
of the phenomena observed up to the present
time;--=The object of an elaborate paper on
Orangeism in Ireland is to dissuade Irish Pro
testants in this country from uniting with a
soe l lety blaimed to have been for almost two
centuries the worst enemy of Ireland.—An
agreeable biography of Hegel follows.—ln a
.short,'earcastic article on the Miraculous Ele
ment in our periodicals, the writer makes a
strong point against the absurd practice of
ante-elating bur popular monthlies.
To such an absurd length is this
usage lately carried, that we believe
every. one of the prominent magazines
purporting to appear the first of the present
year, was laid on our table between the
twelfth rindttfteenth of December; the un
pleasant' jealousy which has inspired this
fashion is exposed by the writer, while the
prophetic powers of the historians who pre
pare (by clairvoyance?) the "News" of the
"Month" by the beginning of whit: 'a their
narratives are in press, are held up to ironic rl
admiration. For our part, we believe that
the next hit will be made by the monthly
which appears accurately on the day of the
date : for readers are by that time fresh fur
new supplies, having exhausted the periodi
cals for the month some ten days back at
least.—The last extended article is a
study tof the origin and history of
thesoriginal settlement of Tuscany by the
Etruriline.—The Notes and Criticisms ap
pended to this number are everywhere more
happy than where they deal with literature
pure and proper. The querulous tone in
which Longfellow's Tragedies and Morris's
"Earthly Paradise" are taken up is not much
like• healthy criticism—There is enough,
however,of solid scholarly study and original
thinking distributed through the number to
keep it in its place, as the first or second
among the American Quarterlies and perhaps
among the foremost of all the ponderous
quarterlies now weighing upon an ingrate
world.

Which many persons are at; preseetvauffering

We refer to the practical operation of the
registration ordinance passed some time since
by Councils: we are very certain that in
adopting this measure, our city legislators
had some laudable end in view for the general
good of the citizens ; but when the' effect of
law is clearly seen to be of great injury to
many, and of use only to the wealthy few,
'we are sure that every just and wise citizen
will desire its repeal.
'iet it is most injurious, we think we can
show in a few :words. By the registration
ordinance, every warrant payable by the
City Treasurer, must be registered and paid
in the regular order or number of its registra
tion. Tnis caused to the holder of every
new warrant, a delay of several weeks or
months, or, an immediate loss of from two
per - cent. (with which we began the year
18680 to a rate of from ten to twenty per
cent., with which we are very plainly threat
ened to begin the year 1869.
Now, any wealthy man, holding a city
warrant, makes as good an investment of
money by so doing, as he could make in any
other way, as interest accrues, while he waits;
but a poorer person, having immediate use
for the money, (perhaps needing it long be
tore it was due, must sell the warrant at
once, and lose whatever discount the brokers
demand.
Thus : A lady teaches for three months
and receives a warrant for one hundred dol
lars, not a very large sum for three months'
labor; if Councils afford no relief by the last
of January, she will receive ninety dollars
(instead of one hundred dollars), or much
less in proportion as the discount increases.
Is this just?
We ask only for what the city has con
tracted to pay us, and we think after losing
at the end of nearly every quarter of the first
year, that Councils should make some provi
sion which will afford us relief from the very
onerous operation of this Ordinance.
There are warrants now registered to the
number of thirty thousand and upwards;
there is provision made for the payment of
four thousand. It will take at this rate about
eighteen months to reach the payment of the
warrants due in January 1869. Who, de
pending upon a salary for support, can affurd
to wait eighteen months for what -Js due.?
Not, we are certain.

The Glorious West.
The following amusing burlesques of the
style of journalism prevalent in the far West
were copied recently into an English paper,
with severe comments upon the shocking
condition of the American barbarians of the
Plains:
"A little bit of of romance has just transpired
to relieve the monotony or our metropolitan
life. Old Sam Choggins, whom the editor of
this paper has so often publicly thrashed, has
returned from Mud Springs with a young
wife. He is said to be very fond of her, and
the way he came to get her was this: Some
time ago we courted her, but finding she was
on the make, threw her oft; after shooting her
brother and two cousins. She vowed revenge,
and promised to marry any man who would
horsewhip us. This dam agreed to under
take, and she married him on that promise.
We shall call on Sam to -morrow with our
new shot- gun, and present our congratulations
in our usual form". —Hangtown Gibbet.

rived in town yesterday and put up at the

"A painful accident occurred in Frog Gulch
yesterday, which has cast a wet blanket of

drunk at his usual hour yesterday, and as is

Janketi I.—o. /to kalPortrait, by Charles
Lichutift.
"Our cousin of eleotland" was ugly,
awkward and shuttling, both in mind and
person. His tongue was much too large for
his mouth, his legs were much too weak for
his body, and his dull, goggle-eyes stared
and rolled like an idiot's. Ho was cunning,
covetous, wasteful, idle, drunken, greedy,
dirty, cowardly, a great swearer, and the
most conceited man on earth. His figure—
what is commonly called rickety—from his
birth presented the most ridiculous appear
ance that can be imagined, dressed in thick
padded clothes, as a safeguard against being
stabbed—of which he lived in continual fear
—of a grass-green color from head to foot,
with a nunting-horn dangling at the side in
stead of a sword, and hie bat and feather
slicking over one eye, or hanging on the
back of his head, as he happened to toss
it on.
He used to 101 l on the necks of hie favorite
courtiers, and slobber their faces.and kiss and
pinch their cheeks; and the greatest favorite
he ever had used to sign himself in his letters
to his royal master, Hie Majesty's "dog and
slave," and used to address his master as "his
Sowship." Hie Majesty was the Worst rider
ever seen, and thought himself the best. He
was one of the most impertinent talkers (in
the broadest Scotch) ever heard,- and boosted
of being unanswerable in all manner of argu
ment. He wrote some of the most weari
some treatises ever read, and thought himself
a prodigy of authorship. He thought, and
wrote, and said, that a king had a right to
make and unmake what laws he pleased,and
ought to be accountable to no one. on-earth.
This is the plain, true character of the per
sonage whom the greatest men about the
court praised and flattered to that degree,that
I doubt if there be any thing more shameful
in the annals of human nature.

REVERDY JOHNSON
How Ire Was Appointed 37Linister—ne
verdy as a Ilninoried.
A Washington correspodent writes:
It is difficult 19 conceive upon what prin
ciples, or from what motives diplomatic,
William of the State Department selected
the gay old<iteverdy for his agent to negoti
ate the Alabama claims. It is whispered
here that the appointment came of an after
dinner talk, in which the choice old wines of
Reverdy's cellar had more to do with the se
lection than the sober second thoughts of the
Secretary. Ido not know how much truth
there may be in that suggestion, but Ido
know that the Hon. Reverdy and the Hon.
Billy are open to the suspicion:
Reverdy Johnson is one of the gayest old
gentlemen in or about Washington. I crossed
the Atlantic with him once, and from the
time we left port till we entered port,he kept
the ship in an excited State over his jests and
practical jukes. I was In no condition to en
joy them, for I was deathly sea-sick-30 sick
I could not stay below, but, wrapped in
blankets, remained night and day, rain or
shine, on deck. The Collins line could roll
somewhat, and when not rolling, any one of
them could pitch with remarkable activity. I
used to lie upon my back, and repeat all I
could remember to the discredit of old Ocean,
and to me would come old Reverdy to worry
my head with all sorts of queer suggestions.
I told him one day, in response to a question
as to what I was thinking about, that I was
constructing, or studying the construction, of
a raft in case of accident.
"Well," he said, "what's your idea?"
"Do you see those two corpulent old ladies?"
I replied.
"Certainly."
"Well, I intend to lash them together and
launch as the ship goes down."
"What a lovely design," he exclaimed,
rapturously; "and I'll get up my trunk and
go with your Do you know that a voyage at
svgs. always brings up the old cannibal in my
nature. I want to eat somebody. Now we'll
get the knife and cut out steaks, and eat as
we sail."
The next day he came to me with a very
sad expression on his funny old face.
"Do you know P. "he said, "your raft is
no go; it won't work."
"Why, what's the matter."
"One end of the raft says if anything hap
pens to this vessel she will lock herself up in
her stateroom."
"What is that for?"
"She says she cannot bear the thought of
being eaten by the monsters of the deep."
"She don't know that a monster is this
minute eyeing her anxiously with a carving
knife in his Goat tail pocket."
After that my friend-got the poor old lady
near me, and argued seriously upon the
wickedness of not making a last effort for her
life, by remaining on deck to the list mo
ment. Arid, with a comical look, he would
ask in an undertone, "Where have you got
your ropes, P.?"
"One night the engines suddenly stopped
their tireless throbbing,and the ship lay rock
ing on the long swell in ominous silence. The
wildest alarm ran through the vesseL So
many painful accidents had recently occurred
that any change brought apprehension. Re
verdy was engaged in a quiet game of cards
in the cabin. It was nearly midnight, and a
majority of the passengers were in their
staterooms. Reverdy heard the alarm and at
once hastened to the stateroom of a gentle
man from New York,a banker by profession,
and one so economical in his way—well, not
to put too fine a point on it, so miserly that
Mr. Johnson especially disliked him. Pound
ing loudly on his door, he roared:
"Get up K., getup. Put on a clean shirt.
You'll be in- in five minutes."
The poor man hurried on his clothe', all
the while asking in intense alarm for the
cause of the trouble.
"Haven't you any baggage you want to
save ?" atked the joker.
"Yes, yes," and he seized hold of a long
"Never mind your clothes, man ; here, I'll
help you."
And the two, one very decollate as to
dress, staggered through the cabins and up
the winding stairs to the deck. Then his tor
mentor told him to sit down till he learned
something of the condition of affairs. Sou
he returned with the welcome intelligence
that it was a false alarm.
"Now K., you can't go through the cabins
in that condition; they are full of belies,
Wait here until I get them out of the way."
"He left the poor victim in bare legs, sit
ting on his treasure. The wind blew as it
always will at sea, and his teeth chattered as
the minutes wore away, and no friend re
turned. At last he procured a blanket from
a servant, and, wrapped in this, stalked
through the cabins to find his tormentor
quietly at his cards again, quite oblivious
to the condition of things he had left on
deck "

years of age, with silvery locks and beard,

Varnhagen's 64.tiournals.),Ir-ritapoloon
az Dresden in 1812.
The tenth volume of Varnhagen's journals,
just published at Leipsic,
contains a curious
account of the meeting of the sovereigns at
,Dresden in 1812, as; related by the late • King
of Prussia, who was then' Crown Prince.
While at dinner (so runs the story) Napoleon
received some news which. seemed to trouble
him, upon which, without paying the slight
est attention to the Empress of Austria, who
sat next to him, he leaned back in his chair
and yawned loudly. He then rose and walked
hurriedly up and down the room, the Em-,
_peror Francis, the Sing of Prussia and Sax
ony, and the ladies,all respectfully waiting his
pleasure. At last Napoleon exelatined, in a
violent tone, "Prince de Neufchatel!" The
Prince then came to him and received his
orders; after which Napoleon again called
out in the same tone as before, •of de
Saxe !" This summons, like the last, as
duly responded to, and the King was sum I , • -
rily dismissed after a few minutes conversa
tion. Napoleon next went up to the Crown
Prince of Prussia, measured him with his eye
from head to foot, and then, plucking him by
the ear, said : "Vouz ressemblez beaucoup
votre mire." The Prince was silent. "Avez
vous vu la fortresse ?" Napoleon continued.
"Non," was- the reply. According to Aus
triaraccounts, Napoleon then exclaimed an
grily "Vous etes une bete." This addition to
the story, however, does not appear in the
Prince's own version of it, which merely
says that he was afterwards bitterly re
proached by all his relations for not having
said "Non, sire," instead of only "Non."

Aifairs In Arkansas.
The following official report relating to affairs
in Arkansas has been received at General Grant's
neadquartera, from General Horace Porter, of
his staff:
larme ROCK, Ark. Dec. 26, 1868.—General :
Gen. Babcock and I arrived here two days ago.
So many contradictory reports have bean circu
lated in regard to Governor Clayton's militia,
that it may be well for yon to know the facts in
the ease. The present State government was cer
tainly in some danger previous to the Presidential
election. Senator Barker had been shot and
wounded badly; Upham, of the lower House,
wounded; and Hinds and McCann, a Freedmen's
Burean agent, killed, and other agents and a
United States Marshal driven from their posts by
threats. The Governor, Senator Rice and others
had to sleep in the State House, under guard, for
fear of assassination.
The Governor wisely refrained from taking any
violent measure until after the election, fearing
the Opposition might make capital out of it. As
soon as the election was over, however, he orga
nized a militia force of about eight hundred men,
one-fourth colored, under Gen. Catterson, In the
Southwest, and Upham, in the Northeast, with
orders to live off the country, taking what was
absolutely necessary, and giving vouchers. His
intention is to pay all loyal holders of vouchers
and no others. Twq assassins have already been
executed by sentence of a military commission,
seventeen others are In prison, and a great num
ber have been rue out of the State. But the beat
result I can see Is the disposition of nearly all
business men to voluntarily enroll themselves as
a posse, pledged to assist the sheriff to arrest
lawless characters, if the Governor will relieve
them from martial law. He has accepted many
such pledges, and martial law now exists in parts
of but seven counties.
The entire conservative wing of the Republican
party were opposed to the declaration of martial
law, including ,General Smith, U. S. A. com
manding the troops in the State. They admitted
the reign of terror established by the Rebels, but
wanted the United States troops to make the ar
rests. Governor Clayton's arguments in favor of
his policy are as follows :—The United States
troops do not know the people and the country.
The lawlessness we have while the United States
troops are In the vicinity, and it breaks out worse
than ever when they leave. The Rebels are gen
erally anxious to have them, as it creates an ex
penditure of money in their midst, from which
they reap a benefit. The militia punishes all the
disloyal and extorts pledges from them to sup
port the laws.
As these people have threatened to break up
the State Government as soon as the United
states troops are removed, this leaches them
that the State is able to protect itself. The militia
lute been under tolerable good control, and the
plundering reported in the press is the taking of
supplies', under order& One negro militiaman
committed a rape on a white woman, but was
immediately arrested by General Catterson who
seems to be a very good man, tried, convicted,
and promptly executed.
The Governor's policy has, no doubt, seriously
interfered with business where martial law has
been proclaimed, and injured business men of all
parties; henoe the opposition from loyalists. It
has interfered with travel, taken off hands for
the militia at a season when' they are badly
needed, and created many panics. It, however,
has, accomplished much more good than the most
sanguine expected, and Gen. Smith acknoWledges
that he thought the Governor's judgment was bet
ter than his own, and that the result would fully
justify the action of the former. The Governor le
now disposed to relieve each county from martial
laW as soon as It can be safely done. The Gov
ernor is certainly a man of intelligence and nerve,
and has labored under difficulties that would have
deterred a less able officer. Four thousand arms
were seized by the Ku-Klux, and thrown off the
boat below 'Memphis. He could seldom secure
good men for offices, and in the eastern counties
he had to depend entirely upon negroes for sol
diers. Very respectfully,
Hoiia 'PORTER, A. D. C.

I will WAVE) every danger, and accept every re
sponsibility, for sour welfare. The. revolution has
swept away the Bourbon dyhasty, tearing up by
the roots a plant so poisonous that It putrilled
the air we breathed. To the citizen shall be re
turned his rights, to man his dignity. You will
receive all the reform which you require. Cubans

The freedom of the press, the right of mooting in

the three fundamental principles of true lib
