VIINISIDIENT OF TICIAITORS
In one grand feature the late rebellion was
unitme; infamously so, in that it was got up, not
in favor of liberty and human rights, as all up
risings against constituted authority have been,
but against them. For this reason the insur
gents have no apology, no claim to the sympa
thy of the good and generous of the world. But
some of our best friends in Europe do not scorn
to see it in this point - of view, but plead with our
government in behalf of clemency towards the
rebel chiefs as they would in behalf of the sub
dued Polish chieftlans, whose object was to lib
erate their country from a foreign yoke. Our
rebels had no cause for revolt which men would
dare to plead In any kingdom In Europe, while
nearly all other insurgents had. On this point
we take a short eitmct from the New York
&ening Post:
We ere dealing with men who, for no provocation
whatever but their own arrogance and love of rule,
go , up a formidable and sanguinary revolt, with the
infamons,perpose of extending and perpetuating
slavery. Were the rebels of the character of our
fathers In 1 of the Hungarians in 1648 or 1849, or
of the misguided Irish even under O'Brien in the
latter year, thequestion might be different; we
could at leastjustify them, in the worst case, on the
ground of the dignity and purity of their alms-, on
the ground that, llowever mistaken, they had haz
arded their lives and property for a cause connected
in their minds with the muse of human emancipa
ton, human rights, human freedom, tram= prog
ress. They all of them thought that they were re
Fisting oppression and wrong, and were about to do
something for the furtherance of civilization. Bnt
It was not so with the rebels, who had no wrongs to
allege and no tyranny to resist, but whose whole
plan in thus resorting to bloodshed and civil rain
was to strengthen and diffuse the most hideous torus
of tyranny that ever disgraced and blighted th , -
earth—the tyranny of an actual ownership of one
man by another, the is - canny of hopeless and =me
diless bondage for a race."
OUR FINANCES
As everything relating to the wealth, resourc
es and financial ability of our country, are mat
ters of special interest at the present time, we
subjoin a few facts and figures, taken from a
pamphlet issued by Messrs. Jay Cooke & Co.,
and prepared by Dr. Wm. Elder, of the Treas
ury Department
Our national debt, at the close of the war, is
estimated at three thousand millions of dollars.
t tar debt, at the close of the last war with Great
-Britain, was one hundred and twenty-seven mil
lions of dollars, which was $14.67 per head up
on the entire , population, and 7 per cent. upon
the estimated value of the country. This debt
was paid in nineteen years, and was not felt by
any one. The average interest of our debt, in
cluding five hundred and fifteen and a half mil
lions of . ff esontooka” and fractional currency,
is 4.85 less than per cent. The wealth in
1850 (excluding slaves) was ten thousand seven
hundred millions, and the products of the year
two thousand eight hundred and seventy mil
lions, or 28.8 per cent of the capital. Taking
these amounts and rates as a basis, we now have
a remit of sixteen thousand one hundred and
twelve millions, and an annual product of four
thousand three hundred and eighteen millions,
In which sum the hundred and twenty-six
millions of interest would be 2.91 per cent—
Assuming this basis as correct, we shall have a
Wealth in 1870, of twenty-four thousand two
hundred and eighteen millions, and an annual
producing capacity of six thousand four hundred
and ninety millions. In 1880, forty-eight thous
and two hundred and thirty-nine millions, and
a producing capacity of twelve thousand fifty
nine millions, which gives the interest required
at 1.85 per cent, or less than one and a half per
cent of the producing capacity of the country.
Oar revenue from our internal taxes last year
was two hundred and sixty millions, and is esti
matedat three hundred and twenty-five millions
this year. It is computed that the entire debt
can be paid in twenty years from 1870. The
enormous debt of Great Britain, of over four
thousand millions of dollars, is only 12 per cent.
of her entire wealth, and site has carried this
heavy burden and has continued to increase in
wealth. And as she has been able to do this,
and none will queStion this fact, how much
mere able are we to bear this debt, and at no
distant day liquidate it. 'We have the finest
country in the world, abounding in mineral re
srJunes of the richest quality, and a climate and
soil which will produce almost anything that
can be grown any wherein the world. We al
so have room for a vast population ; some have
set the number down at three hundred millions,
We see no grounds even for despondency, for
we think we can successfully elitvanate this fi
nancial problem and pay this enormous deld.-.
Industry, courage, and faith ,are the great trini
ty under which we have labored, and by this
sign we are-able to conquer now.

The comer-atone of the monument tole meted

fell on the loud-fought field of Gettysburg, was laid
to-day in tho National Cemetery, amid sol emn tuid
imposing ceremonies:
APPEARIORCH OP TWO TOWN
The filially quiet little town, nestling down
among the bills and almost hidden amid the verdure
of the golden illtoMer time, whose streets a few years
ago w ith asgrti, and whose old walls seldom
echoed the footiklls of strangers, to-day was
thronged with is vast and busy multitude, come hith•
er to participate in the dedication of the memorial to
the noble dead, and to honor them by grateful recol
lections of the heroic sacrifice made here on the
shrine of our gammon country. Prom early dawn
the neighboring population, dressed In their finest
garb, has been pouring in, on footand vehicles of
every description, until the streets are well nigh Im
passable, while every train brings In from the North,
the South, and the tar West, crowds' of tree and loy
al people, who come to break the stillness of this
calmly beant:ful July morning with their jubilant
rejoicinga over a country born anew, and refedleat
ed to Liberty and Freedom.
For the once peaceful, unpretending village, " un•
honored and unsung," really unknown to many, has
become historic. Item In these sloping streets, and
upon these undulating hills, was fought a battle
Which marked the climax of Rebel success, which
filled many a desponding loyalist with joy, musing
the great heart of the country to beat high with an
ticipation, as this was accepted as the first of a series
of great victoria, a struggle which will ever hold a
prominent place In the annals of warfare, among the
fiercest contests of the world.
Two years ago these fields were coveted with hos
tile armies, who for three long summer days, bent
every energy of resolute hearts and determined will
in the hope of success, in deadly, terrible conflict.
These hills, wooded to their summits, reverberat
ed with the roar of artillery such as never before,
either in number or calibre, hurled the iron hall of
death upon a foe; whose awful concussion shook
the very earth, as if by some terrible conflict of the
forces of nature. Here, where now the earth lies
peacefully reposing beneath its emerald mantle, hu
man beings lay, maimed and torn and distorted in
the agony of death. Thtet fields ran red with hu
man blood, and the balmy air was filled with the
shrieks, the moans, the heart-rending cries of men
whose bodies were covered with gaping wounds,
through which the throbbing tide of life slowly and
painfully ebbed away. Here, turned towards that
clear blue sky, were ghastly faces, stiff and start,
and timed forever in death., Faces which
" No other thing expressed
But long disquiet, merged in rest."
Aud here, in this consecrated ground, with one
tremendous, overwhelming blow, the hosts of Insur
gent Rebels received a defeat which sent them bawl
ing back across the Potomac, and was the first of
that long list of glorious triumphs which. crushed
and overthrew their power, and trampled nut that
baleful fire of treason 'which, after smouldering for
thirty years, at last burst out In a consuming dame
and threatened to destroy the only truly free Govern
ment on the face of the earth.
Tilt Bk7TLII.3IIELD. •
Bet now, how different the Aspect of this scene !
Two years of repose and immunity from danger
have worked the wonders of a fairy tale hare. rencea
torn down in the fierce onset of charging heats arc
rebuilt; breastworks from which poured the whist
ling storm of leaden bullets, are leveled with the
ground, the plowshare passing over them uncon
sciously, as the busy farmer seeks the future harvest,
and nature, ever ready to efface the seats left by Im
pious men upon her fair bosom, has done her kind
and gracious work.
Fields of grain, richer for the bloody tide that
swept over theta, bend gracefully to the soft and
gentle breeze, or lie already harvested, waiting to be
garnered. Them-ass grows green and bright where
the slain once lay cold and dead, and the crystal
elrmim, that then ran crimson with the life blood of
men made in God's own Image, nevi flows merrily
en its course, pure and dean, telling no story of the
dreadful seance once reflected in its bosom.
On some portions of the battle-field, however, may
still he seen vestiges of the strife. On the ound
Top, the extreme left of our line, for the poe.session
of which the Rebels fought with such desperation,
the trees are scarred and torn with shot and shell,
and here and there, strewn about among the rocks,
may yet be gathered cartridge hexes, cap pouches,
knapsacks, pieces of shell and ballets—evidences of
the tight. And along the side of the hill, where the
most awful slaughter prevailed, the only thing to re
mind one of the contest le tits stone breastwork,
now partially demolished; hut even here grass
weeds have sprung out from the interstices of the
rocks, and to the casual observer it presents nothing
likely to occasion especial remark.
And so too with Culp's Nui, on the tight. The
only things left to tell the tale are the mutilated
ttand the few articles dropped In the toll of bat
,tes ham of flight, or stripped Imre the body of
some dead soldier. Over all this fair scene to-day
In presented the radiance of God's own bright, clear
sunshine, and the whole earth seems to revel In its
luxuriant beauty, and to rejoice with us on this an
niversary of the nation's foundation and regenera
tion.

PILMIDIINT JOUNSON'S LEM=
Exectrrrva Marcidon, Want:mot-on, D. C., 1 .
June 3, 1865. i
7b David D ills, al., Chairman of Cbmmitice:
81r—I had promised myself the pleasure of wtiel
rating in person' In the proceedings at Gettysburg
to-morrow. That pleasure, owing to my indbpoa
tion, lam reluctantly compelled to forego. I should
have been pleased, standing on the twice sacred spot.
to share with you your joy at the return of peace ;
to greet with you the surviving heroes of the war,
who have come back with light hearts, though heavy
loaded with honors, and with you to drop grateful
tears to the memory of those that will never return.
Unable to do so in person I ran only send you my
greetings, and assure you of my trill sympathy with
the spirit and purpose of your exercises to-morrow.
Of ell the anniversaries of the Declaration of In
dependence none have been more important and
significant than that upon which yon are assembled.
Four years of strugp,le for our national life have been
crowned with seems; armed treason Is swept from
the land ; our ports are reopened; our relations with
other nations are of the most satisfactory character
our Internal commerce is free; our soldiers and
sailors resume their peaceful pursuits; our flag
floats in every breeze, and the only barrier to our
national progress, Haman Stamm, Is former at an
end.
Let us trust that each recurring Fourth of July
shall find our nation stronger in numbers, stronger
in wealth, stronger in the harmony of its citizens,
stronger to its devotion to nationality and fieralom.
As I have often said, I believe that God sent this
people on a mission among the nations of the earth.
He founded its perpetuity.
That faith sustained me through the struggle that
has passed. It sustains me now, that new duties
are devolved upon me and new dangers threaten us.
I feel that, whatever means Ile uses, the Almighty is
determined to preserve uc a people. And since I
have seen the love our fellow citizens bear their
conntry, and the sacrifices they have made for it,
my abiding faith has become stronger than ever,
that a Government of the people is the strongest, ss
well as the bait Government.
In your joy to-morrow, I OM that you will not
forget the thousands of whites as well as blacks
whom the war has emancipated, who will ball the
Fourth of July with a delight which no previous
anniversary of the Declaration of Independence ever
gave them.
Controlled so long by ambitious, selfish leaders,
who need them for their own unworthy ends, they
are now free to serve and cherish the Government
against whose life they in their blindness struck. I
am greatly mistaken if, In the States lately in rebel
lion, we do not henceforward have an exhibition of
such loyalty and patriotism as was never seen nor
felt there before.
When yon have consecrated a National Cemetery,
you are to lay the comer-atone of a National Mono
went which, in all human probability, will rise to
the full height and proportion you design. Noble
as this monument 01 stone may be, it will be but a
taint symbol of thegrander monument which, if we
do our duty, we shall raise among the nations of the
earth, upon the foundation laid In Philadelphia nins
and-eighty years ago. Time shall wear away and
crumble this monument, but act, based as it is upon
the consent, virtue, patriotism and intelligence of
the people, each year shall make firmer and more
imposing.
Tour friend and fellow citizen,
ANDREW JORNBON.
The letter was frequently applauded, particularly
in the portions which alluded to the stability of the
Government and - the emancloation of the negro. At
the conclusion, three enthusiastic cheers were given
for President Johnson.

By the Right Worailipfal Grand Master of the State
ot Penney tram].
The laying of the corner stone being in order,
Rrolher Henry J. White, 'Grand Marshal of the
Grand Lodge of Masons, in a clear, distinct voice
cried: Silence, silence, silence.
It. W. Grand Master Lucius H. Scott addressed
the R. W. Senior Grand Warden, and said: " The
rsaiass of Pennsylvania has been invited by
the Prealdent 01 the re

tion-stone of a monument, here to be erected, to
commemorate the deeds of valor and patriots' death
of those who, at the call of their country, came
forth to defend its Constitution and its laws, and
maestro the perpetuation of the Onion. This Invita
tion having been aceepted,..l as new here, with my
Grand Officers to perform this duty.
Masonry demands that its members "shall not be
concerned in plots or ennsplraries against Govern
ment, patiently to submit to the decisions of the
supreme Legislature, and pay proper respect to the
civil magistrate." This injunction enables no as
free masons, with one heart and one mind, to testify
by our presence and the performance of our solemn
and ancient ceremonies, our love and devotion to
our country, and admiration for deeds of patriotism
and glory which this occasion makes memorable.
Let us here, on the birthday of the nation, pay user
iced honor to the memory of those citizens who have
given up their lives in the defense of these prinei
ples'which test true pattiotiam.
I now order that the Grand Officers assist me in
the performance of this work. It is therefore my
will and pleasure that you proclaim it to the R. W.
Junior Grand Warden, and he to the brethren and
others present, that all, having due notice, may
govern themselves accordingly.
R. W. Senior Grand Warden, Richard Yeast, in
turn addressed the Junior Grand Warden, and in
formed him that it, was the order of the R. W. Grand
Master that this corner-stone be now laid with Ma
sonic honors. This you will proclaim to all pres
ent, that the occasion may be observed with due
order and solemnity.
R. W. Junior Grand warden Robert A. Lauber
ton said : Brethren, and all who are present, take
notice, that the It. W Grand Master will now cause
to be tested and tried the foundation atone, that he
may lay it in due masonic form. You will there
fore observe that order and decorum becoming this
solemn occasion.
The Grand Chaplain, Rev. John P. Lundy, In
voked Divine assistance In the work begun. The
R. W. Grand Treasurer, Peter Williamson ' mad
and described a list of colas to be deposited under
the foundation atone.
The R. W. Deputy Grand Master was requested
to see that the craftsmen bad Well and truly prepar
ed the corner-stone to be now laid. In obedience
to this request, the Deputy Grand Muter took his
square and bad It upon the stone and answered,
"R.
W. Grand Master. I find the stone square,
and the craftsmen have well and truly done their
work." The Senior Grand Warden was requested
to see that the stone was Prepared, and that it was
true and trusty. • Placing the level upon the atone,
be said, "It. W. Deputy Grand Muter, I find the
atone level, and that the craftsmen have prepared
the stone tree and fruity." In like manner the
Ardor Grand Warden took the plumb, In accord
ance with directions, and tested the stone, which,
he replied he found plumb. The Deputy Grand
Master reporting favorable, and that the atone was
ready to be laid, the R. W. Grand Mesafr went down
to the stone, where a trowel was handed lam, arid
the atone was lowerEd on the cement. A gull being
banded him, he struck the stone three times, and
proclaimed :
" I, as Grapd Master of Free and accepted Masons,
hereby declare this corner-atone to be duly laid,
square, level and plumb, and may the Grand Archi
tect of Heaven and Earth bless the work here begun.
and make It memorable to the latest posterity"
The Deputy Grand Master then received from the
Grand Marshal the Cornucopia containing corn,
and dropped the corn upon the stone, isayiies
" May the health of the workmen maple this
undertaking he preserved to them, an may the
Supreme Architect bless and prosper their labors."
The Grand Marshal then took the wine - from the
table and presented it to the Senior Grand Warden,
who poured It tiport the stone, saying;
" May plenty. be 'showered down upon the people
of this ancient Commonwealth, and may the bless
ings of the pounteons Giver of all things attend all
their philanthropic undertaldmrs, ."
The Grand Marshal then presented the an to the
Smiler Grand Warden, who poured it upon the
stone, saying:
4 , May the Supreme Ruler of the world preserve
this people in peace, and vouchsafe to them the en,
joyment of every blessing."
The It. W. Grand Master then said, "May corn,

men throughout the world and may the blessing

And trumpet creepers clothe the hedge,
Along the shores of endless sand,
Beneath the palms of southern plains
Sleep everywhere, hand locked in hand,
The brothers of the gallant band_
Who here poured life through throbbing veins.
Around the closing eyes of all,
The same red glories glared and flew;
The harrying dogs, the bugle call,
The whistle of the angry ball,
The elbow-touch of comrades true,
The skirmish fire, a spattering spray,
The long sharp growl - of fire by tile,
The thielening fury of the tray
When opening batteries get In play,
And the lines form o'er many • mile;
The foeman's yell, our answering cheer,
Red flashes through the gathering smoke;
Swift orders, resonant and clear,
Blithe cries from comrades, tried and dear,
The shell-scream and sabre stroke,
The volley fire, from left to right,
From right to left, we hear It swell;
The headlong charges, swift and bright,
The thickening tumult of the fight,
And bursting thunders of the shell.
Now closer, denser, grows the strife,
And here we yield and there we gain;
The air with hurtling mirsiles rife,
Volley for volley, life for life,
No time to hoed the cries of pain.
Panting, ea up the hills we charge,
Or down them as we broken roll,
Life never felt so high, so large,
And never o'er so wide a range
In triumph swept the kindling seal.
New raptures waken in the breast
Amid this hell of scene and sound,
The harking batteries never rest,
And broken foot, by horsemen pressed,
Still stubbornly contest the ground ;
Fresh waves of battle rolling in,
To take the place of shattered waves;
Torn lines that grow more bent and thin,
A blinding cloud, a maddening din,
'Twos than we filled these very graves.
• • • • • •
Night falls at length with pitying veil,
A moonlight silence, deep and fresh.
These upturned faces, stained and pale,
Vainly the chill night dews assail ;
Far colder than the dews their flesh,
And flickering far through brush and wood,
Go searching parties, torehbe hand.
Seize if you can some rest and food,
At dawn the fight will be renewed.
"Sleep on your arms !" the hushed command.
They talk In whispers as they Ile
In line, these rough and weary men.
"Dead or but wounded ?" then a sigh;
"No coffin either? Guess we'll try
"To get those two guns back again.
"We've five flags to their one, olio!"
"That bridge. 'Twas not there as we passed;
"The Colonel dead? it can't be so,
"Wounded, badly, that 1 know,"
But he kept saddle to the last.
"Be sure to Bend It if I fall :"
"Any tobaceti? Bill, have you ?"
"A brown-haled, blue-eyed, laughing doll :"
"Good night, boys, and God keep you all."
"Wha da ) . aound asleep? Guess sleep too."
" Aye,J ust about this hour they pray
For " "Stop talking, pass the word ;"
And soon as quiet as the clay
Which thousands will but he next day,
The long-drawn sighs of sleep are heard.

Oh men to whom this sketch, though rude,
Calls back some scene of pain and pride ;
Oh widow, hugging close your brood,
Oh wife, with happiness renewed,
Since he again is at your eld.
This trophy that to-day we raise
Should be a monument for all,
Ara, •rmara phrase
Confine a generous nations praise,
To those who here have chanced to falL
Bntlet us all to-day combine
Still other monuments to raise;
Here for the dead *e build • shrine,
And now to thoseiho crippled pine
Let us give hope of happier days.
Let homes ofthme sad wrecks of war
Through all the land with speed arise ;
They cry from every gaping scar,
"Let not our brother's tomb debar
Te wounded living from your eyes."
A noble day, a deed as good,
A noble scene in which 'Us done,
The birthday of our nationhood,
,And here again the nation stood,
On this same day its life renown.
A bloom of banners in the air
A double calm of sky and soul,
Triumphant chant and bugle blare,
And green fields spreading bright and fair,
As Heavenward our hosannas roll.
Hoeszusahs for a land redeemed,
The bayonet sheathed, the cannon dumb :
Passed as some horror we have dreamed,
The fiery meteors that hens streamed,
Threat' ning within our homes to come.
Again our banner floats abroad,
Gone the one stain that on it fell
And bettered by his chast'ang rod,
With streaming eyes uplift to God,
We say, "Ho doeth all things well."
At Its conclusion General Geary proposed three
cheers for "Mlle, O'Reilly," which were given with
a good will.
CLOSE OF TUE CEBILMONIES.
After another anthem by the Union Musical As
sociation, the Benediction was pronounced by the
Rev. D. T. Cernham, and the vast multitude slowly
dispersed, some strolling round among the tomb
stones in the cemetery, while others visited the
many pointsOf Interest in the neighborhood. We
are sorry to record that during the ceremonies some
of the benches gave way precipitating several per
sons to the ground, andinjuring one or two, altho'•
not very severely. Several ladles fainted bemuse of
TUN NATIONAL CENZTENY
Consists of seventeen acres of land, on the far-famed
Cemetery Hill. It Is at the apex of the triangular
line of battle of the Union army, and was purchased
by the State of Pennsylvania for this purpose, lots
being tendered gratuitously to all the States whose
aold.tcs Were mgavd In the battle; the expense of
the removal oft ite - les and of their burial, how
ever, was borne by the respective States. The
grounds Were laid out by sir. Wm. Saunders, the
coral srehlteet.
In order to prevent any Invidious preference be-
Mg given to any State, the semi-circular form was
adopted for the interments, the ground appropriat
ed to every State part of a common centre.—
The coffins are d eposi ted side by ride, in parallel
trenches. The headstones consist of a continuous
line of granite blocks, rising nine Inches above the
ground, with a face of ten incites on the upper ant.
Lace, thename, company and regiment being carved
in the granite opposite each grave. The Cemetery
now contains the remains of three thousand eight
hundred men.
In the centre of this semi-circle will stand the
toramment, which has already been graphically de-
Scribed In your columns, and need not be repeated
here. A few words, however, In regard to the
COVIIMSTOND.
This consists of a solid block of granite set firmly in
the arth, with Pe top even with the surface of the
ground, having in It an opening In which is placed
a large tin hoz con the articles contributed
by the different States. a complete list of thew
articles would fill a column and a half of the Inquire

cant:Minted largely, tome not at all, although the
committee procured copies of the Constitutions of
the non-contributing States, and placed them in the

On the part of the United States there were the

Away off to the right lies Culp's 0111, with its wood

Then we can see the Seminary, with its red brick

—lt Is dangerous to give one day that which Is to
be taken away the next. ( ruts the much befogged
history of St. Domingo for an illustration.) Timid
people, with linen cheeks, and eyes fall of water ap
prehension, tell us of the danger of emancipation—
murder, rape, arson, theft, end general absolute con
fusion! These prudent souls are for keeping still
in use two or three shackles—just enough, ( if they
are wrong,) for danger, and not enough, (If they are
right,) for safety. The South has accepted emanci
pation ; it is for her to consider whether it will be
Wise or safe to deny to the blacks its legitmate con
sequences.—Tribune.
What the War has Cost the South.
The New York noes figures up the pecuniary lass
of the South In good money as follows:
In slave property
By the ravages of war
Four crops of cotton.,
Four crape of tobacco
Rice and- sugar
Confederate debt (worth In
gold ad 0,000,000) - 4 000,000,000
The proper proportion of the
National War Debt
Of the. subject generally it is eaid, the South of
1860 bad about one-third of the property in the Un
ion, and had the South the same proportion now,
their contribution to meet the national debt would
be ono thousand mallows of dollars. WO quote:
At the present time they have not one-sixth,
probably not ono-eighth so much property as the
North; -and the tan Mon upon them, if levied now,
to pay the debt, would be correspondlngly limited:
But not for many years to come will this debt be
paid. The taxes levied upon the South to meet its
grgrtion of the current interest of the debt will,
e aggregate, wo may safely assume, make up
the difference; so that in the long run the debt will
cost the South one thousand millions at least, Mlle
or no part of which'will go to It own people. '
We have enumerated go
losses, in con
sequence of the war, to the amount of five thousand
eight hundred million' of dollars, namely: twenty
five hundred millions by loss of whatwas called
slave property, nine mink= by ravages of war,
twelve hundred and ten millions by loss of staple
crops, five hundred millions- of property sunk' In
Confederate debt, and one thousand millions by
what must hereafter be pid .bY, the South to
liquidate the pinclpal Uteregt, of the alittoul
debt. This, of course, is a very rough estimate.
We might have Included many other items, involving
indirect, though not less certain.
Seldom have any people paid such a penalty for
folly and wickedness. It ought to be enough to
propitiate the worst enmity. Though perhaps cer
tain of the authors of Wilts calamity have not yet
Buffered to the extent of their deserts, this certainly
cannot be said of the great body of the Southern
people--capedally when regard lilted to their sae
, Mice not antra property, but of lite. SO far as
they are eonrerned, none bat hearts callous to every
feeling of humanity could demand the infliction
upon them of any further punishment.
A Murfreesboro (Tenn.) convepondent of the
Milwaukee Illsconzin relates the fallowing:
Among the former magnates and the late leaders
of the rebellion, who have returned to cat their leek,
la General Gideon J. Pillow. I visited him last week
at his mansion, five miles from Columbia. The
splendid estate on which his mansion is built is leased
out by the government to an enterprising Yankee.
The family of the General have, however, been, al
lowed to 'de the hound and the adielnlng grounds.
The place is an elegant one, like some English
country seat. After leaving the pike to enter the
carriage way upon the grounds; you eac a conside:-
able distance through a most beautiful grove and
lawn before you get a glimpse of the residence. Gen
eral Pillow greeted us very affably, and Is qtlite
communicative, Indeed exceedingly talkative. Its
appears about fifty years of age—had on a gray cost,
which I Judged to he his uniform, stripped of its
insignia and gilt buttons—not by any means a man
of Imposing exterior, but would pass for an Intelli
gent and genial farmer of the old school. The Gen
eral expressed himself utterly subiugated,_ but I
should also Judge by no means repentant. U.) talks
In substance, if in exact words, like this: "We
are conquered; you Yankees are our masters; we
give it up; we are at sour mercy; we only ask a
chance now to get a living for our families, and we
ask it as a favor; we have got through with the fight,
and though the South didn't make as good a tight
as she could have done, still if Is over now, and we
want peace." I asked him if, cousideting us, as be
said, as their masters, how it would be in ease of
war with England or France. Perhaps he would
prefer to change masters Y The General hesitated,
but finally said that that would depend upon the
course taken by the government with their proper.
ty. I conclude that the loyalty of the General
"wouldn't do to bet on " yet. The General says he
Isn't guilty of treason. Ile is willing to he tried by
a jury of our generals, except that General Curtis
must not be on it. lie couldn't trust him.
