___ABLENDING THE NATIONAL CONSTI-
TVTION.
Hon. N. G. Urn M, the author of the
able article we copy from the Boston Daily
Advertiser, was for some years a Demo
cratic leader in New Hampshire, but,
like every just and thoughtful mind,
severed his party relations as soon as
he discovered that they`were making him
responsible br doctrines at war, with the
whole Democratic -idea of representative
government. He proposes and advocates a
series of amendments to the Federal Con
stitution—all of them important, and two
of them essential to the successful working
of the improved fundamental law. These
amendments are :
1 The taxation of exports.
11. Making the number of legal voters the
basis of representation.
lIL -Securing civil rights to all without
distinction of color, and defining in accord
with liberal ideas the term " Reptibli
•can Government," as used in the guaran
tee clause of the Constitution.
At a time when the Vest intellects are
exercised on these and kindred questions,
the argument of Judge Urnem, evidently
the result of careful and, patient inquiry,
will be read by thousands with pleasure.
We cannot unite with him in the judgment
which regards the rebellion as having
destroyed the organizations ,of States that
joined in it—indeed, we do not see
that his comprehensive programme de
pends upon the maintenance of
that theory—but apart from that single
point, we heartily commend his paper to
the people. The proof that the abolition
of slavery by the amendment of the Na
tional Constitution, will add to the non
votingpopulation ofthe South, and yet may
ultimately increase the number of represen
tatives from the recent rebellious States, is
powerfully made by Judge UPHAM, and
will startle many who had not carried
their own investigations so 'closely and so
far as that eminent gentleman.
THE SHENATIDOAIFIL
Mr. MASON, late rebel commissioner to
England, has informed the world, by
means of a letter in the London news
papers, that, as soon as the rebellion was
defrated, notice of the same was despatched
to the commander of the Shenandoah, a
well-known piratical vessel. Such notice
having been given over four months:ago,
there can be not the shadow of a pretext for
imagining that Captain MaysTr, who, has
been burning our whalers in the North
Pacific, and generally doing a great damage
to our commerce, can be justified by any
law whatever. What he has done since
he learned that rebellion, whose vile tool
lie long has been, had collapsed, is his own
voluntary work, DIAFFIT, a villain of the
darkest dye, an incendiary buccaneer,
whose very calling places him out of the
pale of humanity and law, evidently feels
delight in burning merchant-men bearing
our flag, and, though his " Confederate"
commission, if he ever had one, has
run' out by the rebellion having been
put an end to, continues his piratical
course, and is not likely to cease, until his
career be Closed by force of arms. No
doubt, like SEMMES of the Alabama, (who
used to call his crew to prayers on the Sab
bath mornrbefore bearing down upon and
destroying some unlucky merchant vessel,)
this Marna' will show a light pair of heels
- when once one of our war-frigates is on his
track. It appears obvious that he ought to
be pursued, captured, punished. That can
best be done by a national vessel, but if our
marine cannot spare a frigate for that pur.
pose it should be done by private enterprise.
Indeed, it is said that a project was in pro
gress, at San Francisco, for fitting out and
properly arming one of the Pacific steamers,
owned by a private company, and send
ing her to capture the Shenandoah.
There can be no doubt, moral or legal,
that MATTIT is now a pirate, and that,
- when caught, he ought to be punished as
such. Piracy is robbery on the high sea,
an offence against the law of nations. It
is not an offence against any particular
State, but against all mankind, and may be
punished in any country where the offender
may be found, or into which he may be
carried, no matter where or how the crime
- was committed. A very.high judicial au
thority expressly declares "It is the essence
of piracy that the pirate has no commission
from a sovereign State, or from one bel
ligerent State at war with, another." The
Shenandoah—British-built, British-owned,
British-manned, and British-armed—may
or may not have been commissioned by
"the so-called Southern Confederation,"
but it is certain she never entered a Con
federate port ; and Mr. MASON, who is a
credible witness, so far, declares that when
the Confederate bubble burst, formal inti
mation thereof was duly sent to that vessel.
That plainly told MAFFIT that his occupa •
lion was gone ; any subsequent act of his
against any vessel of any nation is rank
piracy. We would recommend that, when
captured, he be instantly tried by a naval
drumhead court-martial, and "a short shrift
and a long rope," pensile from the yard-arm
of his own ship, ought to 'be the swift and
summary finale of such a wretch.
JOHN BRIGHT.
It is rumored that JOHN BRIGHT, whose
- name is a household word among us, is
about visiting this country, and, indeed,
_may even now be on his way hither. Some
forty years ago LAWATETTE returned to us,
for a short time, td' witness the greatness of
the nation which he had aided in her strug
gle for freedom, and his reception was an
event in history. He was the nation's
guest. If Mr. BRIGHT comes, it will be
simply as a private gentleman, but the great
heart of America will throb with gratitude
_and joy when he sets foot upon our soil.
In the four years' war, which has no paral
lel in the world's annals, Mr. BRIGHT, one
of the most distinguished and most eloquent
, of British statesmen, devoted his untiring
energies to the assertion, defence, and main
tenance of the great principles of human
liberty, which, at last, are now triumphant.
The Morning Post, a fashionable London
paper, said to be chiefly owned by Lord
PALMERSTON, which is so much the self
appointed organ of the aristocracy that it
sneers at manufacturers, however rich, and
despises artisans, however laborious—the
Morning Post ridicules the idea of Mr.
BRIGHT visiting the United States, and
predicts that he will be disgusted with the
.eountry, its institutions, and its people, and
will see the littleness of things here, "of
which he has so often drawn bright imagi
nary pictures." Mr. BRIGHT took our part,
manfully and ably, without having ever
been among us. But he had a colleague, a
• dear friend, whose death was lately mourn
ed by France as well as by England, who
also was our champion in the British Le
gislature, and that great Man took that
-aide, after he had personally travelled
largely through the United States. Men
,
ARM Coßrozres first visit here was made
thirty years ago, and he was again here in
18&9, when the electors of Rochdale, pay
ing him the finest compliment that a puhlic
man could receive, sent him to Parlia
ment as their -representative, without
his solicitation or , knowledge, and thus
replaced him in the political arena in which
he was as much distinguished by his high
principle as 'well as by his impressive, be-
Wise truthful, oratory. Mr. COWEN was
thefriend of America, alter having known
the country and the people for thirty years—
the period of an entire human generation—
and Kr. nitteirr, if he now first visits us,
will scarcely lower the good opinion, on ac
quaintance, which lie formed without
having seen us.

A very large proportion of this vast
aggregate of nearly 150,000,000 acres is
embraced in plantations or farms allotted
to individual owners, and it forms, in con
junction with the improved land, the
principal, and indeed almost the, only
available property left to the inhabit
ants of the States devastated by the
war, their slaves having been emanci
pated, and their floating capital swal
lowed up by the military and financial
operations of the Confederacy. It is 'gra
tifying to 'know that such an immense
area remains for the use of the present and
future generations, and to furnish homes
for the mighty millions of citizens who wil
eventually develop its resource& Already
the Southern people are fully realizing the
importance of attracting emigration, to in
fine new life and vigor into their social and
industrial organization, Men from the
North, as well as the people of the European
countries which habitually Make large con
tributions to the population of the Northern
States, are earnestly invited to seek new
homes in the sunny South. These efforts
will not be altogether abortive, and many
thousands will doubtless avail themselves
of some of the numerous opportunities
which are presented. But the true philoso
phy of successful,. continuous, and exten
sive emigration to the Southern States is
not generally understood, and it is only in
a few instances that the efforts to promote
it are properly directed.
That emigration follows isothermal lines
has been illustrated and proven over and
over again by the'course of civilization in
Europe ; by the European colonies planted
in America, and by the migrations of the
people of our Atlantic States to.the West
ern States and Territories. Not to multi
ply examples, we see how the French colo
nized Louisiana and South Carolina ; the
Spaniards Florida, Cuba, Mexico, and South
America; and the English, Scotch, Irish,
and Germans, Canada and the northern por
tions of the 'United States—each people
seeking in the New World a climate resem
bling that to which they had been accus
tomed in Europe. The real region, there
fore, in which Southern States--particu
larly those bordering' or near the Gulf
of Mexicep—should seek emigrants is
rn South-
.
South
em Europe—among the French, Spanish,
end Italians. If large colonies of the
people of these countries were trans
planted to our Southern States they could
speedily establish all the varied agricultural
and manufacturing pursiitts to which their
energies are devoted in their present homes.
Orange groves ofboundless extent, vine
yards capable of supplying the demands of
the whole world, silk (as well as cotton)
manufactories, and every feature which
distinguishes the industry of Southern Eu
rope could be erected in Southern America.
The progress of our country would be im
mensely accelerated beyond all precedent
if, while our Northern States and territo
ries were being filled up with the people of
Northern Europe, our Southern States
were simultaneously attracting the people
of Southern Europe.
pANisn AND ADERICAN CIVILI
ZATION.
The mighty genius of SIIAKSPEARE
needed not to wrest fact from its true
relations, or disarrange the details of his
tory in order to meet the requirements of
his fancy, as is done by the lesser poets ;
but his mind, grasping the absolute truth,
his imagination found ample food in repro
during the past in the present, and making
the bare, old skeletons Of the chroniclers
instinct with life and fire. In that beau
tiful story where the fate of the wise and
wealthy PORTIA hangs upon the choosing
of the caskets, the poet's fancy conceives
the Spanish prince selecting the silver one
in preference to the golden or the leaden—
the proud, exclusive spirit of his people is
shown in his argument, and the dramatist
becomes the true historian of the nation in
the words he places in the mouth of the
creature of his imagination, while there
lies beneath the outer husk of fiction an
old historic fact when ARRAGON exclaims,
as his most solemn and irrevocable choice ;
"Why, then, to thee, thou silver treasure
house!"
From the remotest times the wealth and
power of Spain have been based on silver.
This metal was the principal support of its
earliest maritime splendors and the exten
sive commerce which connected the Spa
niards with the Phcenicians, Carthagenians,
and Romans, as well as the foundation
of that glory - which the nation reached
when its possessions extended from the
further.limits of Asia to the remotest seas
of the west ; for Spain, in the height of its
power, had even a much more extensive
sway than that which has made Great
Britainboast that the sun never sets on her
dominions.
In the new western world the regions
abounding in silver bear to this day the
impress of Spanish power, or even where
that has faded through the decay of the
parent land, the names that remain still
stand as witnesses that the country Was
once under he yoke, and that the Spaniard
as eagerly sought the pale and precious ore
in the bosom of the Sierra Nevada near
the Woad Pacific, as in the heart of the
Sierra Marcus of his native land. The
rich argentine countries Of South America
contain : many Spanish names ; so do the
wealthy silver lands of Mexico, and far
northward along our own great mineral
mountains occasional peaks and valleys
still attest the fact that Spain, although
claiming only an inferior station . now
among the powers' of the earth, once out
ranked them all in extent and opulence.
That wealth, which should have yielded.
:strength and established her. in uncontested
supremacy proved her dostAnntion. The
true 4 , blue blood," proud anAhaughty and
stern as it was, greiv mad under the bound
less riches, and the daring spirit that made
the Spaniard master of the seas, and the
explorer of far distant lands, decayed under
the weight of wealth into indolence and
sloth, until the glory of the nation . has be
come but the theme , of the historian, and
its enterprise and adventure a mere memo
ry for the novelist and the poet.
The old fable of a stone whose mere touch
woUld transmute the baser into the most
precious metals has been a blessing to man
' blessing 'in that it was sought by
long and patient endeavor ; a blessing that
it was never found l in the loss was a double

The indolent Spaniard found his trea

tells the sad sequel that Spain declined
almost to destruction, while Mexico became
the "sick man " of the healthy and strong
young continent ; but bistOry has another
and a better tale when brave and energetic
men, with nobler aim's, freer thoughts,
and grander aspirations also reach a land
overflowing with wealth, and change it
into a great, growing, and independent
commonwealth. -California, with all the
lovely sisterhood, growing up around her,
soon to become wealthy and independent
States, have a glorious future spreading be
fore them, and a grand mission to fulfil for
the uses of themselves and the whole world,
while the selfish and egotistical spirit of the
ancient Spaniards produced from as fair
a 'prospect, but the degeneracy of Mexico.

News from Mexico.
The following appears in the New York
Herald of Saturday:
A private despatch from. San Francisco,
dated August 20, brings news front the Pacific
coast of Mexico. The steamer John L. Ste
phens, which left Guaymas August 20, reached
San Francisco on the 30th. The day before she
left Guaymas a courier arrived from Hermo
sillo, in the interior of Sonora, with news to
the 10th of August.
The Imperial troops occupied Hermozillo on
the 12th of August, and had thrown open the
roads is all directions in the interior of Sono.
ra. The Liberal troops, under Pesquiera, the
Juarist Governor, which some two months ago
numbered 3,000, have disbanded and gone over
to the Imperial forces.
The Gandara party, the old rivals of Fes
quiera., bad made common cause with the Im
perialmts released the French, prieeneeS held
by Pesquiera, who had been several months
imprisoned at Mermozillo, and had conducted
them to the Imperial commander. They had
been held as h.ostages, closely confined, and
were in daily expectation of being shot, as an
onset to the execution of the, bandit Romero
and his oftieerS in Mexico last winter. Among
them were a number of Egypthen Zeuaves.
Pesquiera had but about two hundred meu.,
and it is supposed would take refuge in United
States territory. His army, which has thus
disappeared, is the last organized force of the
Juarez Government in Northwestern Mexico.
The late defeat and quick succeeding dis
bandment of Pesquierals army is Considered
as putting an end for the present to the oppo
sition to the Imperial Government in that
part of Mexico. Although Pesquiem threat
ens to Join the Apaches and wage a guerilla
war, there is now no apprehension of trouble
from that source.
.
The roads to ..ariuona are open, and regular
shipments 'have been made of silver bullion
from the southern mines of Arizona.
Guaymas was in, peaceable possession of the
Imperial government, and business was re
viving. Shipments of merchandise and ma
chinery for Sonora, Arizona, and Lower Cali
fornia go down by toe Jolt. L Stephens, which
sails about the sth of September.
The United States Government were build
ing an eight compan.y post at Calabasas, in
Arizona, near the Mowry and Esperanza
mines. These troops, supplied from California,
will afford protection to that portion of the
frontier.

The generaln mining news from itiosico is
good. Some very rich specimens of silver ore
Lave been received from San Antonio and
Caeachila, in Lower California, said to exceed
any ores yet brought from that peninsula.
It would seem from this that the letter of
our correspondent, "Montezuma," was
correct in all its facts.

CONSTANTINOPLE, August 4, 1865.
The cholera, which was introduced here a
few weeks since by an Egyptian vessel, has
been steadily on the increase, and yesterday
the of ciallyreported deaths amounted to four
hundred. It has raged chieflyamong the poorer
classes, whose food at this season of the year
is for the most part unripe fruit and uncooked
vegetables. Meat is dear, and, as wages are
extremelylow, the poor are obliged to content
themselves with green food and bread, which
is badly baked and sour, and, of course, not
Very Wholesome. The soldiers and sailors are
often not paid a piastre for five Or Six months
at a time, and they must consequentlysupport
themselves in the cheapest possible way.
Among this class it has made many victims.
Wherever the drainage is imperfect and filth
has been allowed to accumulate, the cholera
has swept the locality as with the wing of a
destroying angel.
The disease first started from the military
hospital, in which some deaths Leekplape of
cholera-stricken sailors from the Egyptian
vessel above referred to. This hospital is
situated on the-Goiden - HOrn, at the 'outli-of
the valley of Cassini Pacha, which is thickly
inhabited by the poorest Class Of the popula
tion and by the worknien employed at the ad
jacent navy-yard. This valley lies flat' and
low, surrounded on all sides by high hills, ex
cept on the Golden Horn, and into it pours the
sewers from the heights of Pere, the collected
contents of which find their way to the sea
through its midst in 'an open drain. Strange
to say, along this stream of pestilential filth
lies the most frequented street, and all the
shops and bazaars. As soon as the cholera
communicated itself to this quarter, it spread
with wonderful rapidity, as if it had found an
atinosphereparticularly congenial. It seemed
also to have beenintensified in malignity by
the miasma on which it was.nonrished in sueh
a pestiferous region, and thence invaded all
parts of the neighboring quarters of Pere,
Taltava, and Galata, subsequently crossing
the Golden Horn to Stamboul, and spreading
over the Princes , Islands, in the Sea of Mar
more, and the villages on the European and
Asiatic shores of the lieSphorua.
Unfortunately the summer, which was quite
cool until the appearance of the cholera, has
since become very warm. Under the influence
of the great heat the epidemic has, of course,
grown more destructive, and it will, in all pro
bability, continue to increase until there is a
change in the weather, It is really fearful to
witness the panic that has seized all claslea of
the population. The Greek consulate has
alone lased 6,000 passports, while all tee steam
ers are crowded with passengers for France,
England, and Germany. People are fleeing to
the mountains, and even to remote points—
such as Kittle, on the Mack Sea—to get out of
the way of the dreaded disease. Business is
suspended; many stores are closed; all the
schools are shut up; and the Government can
hardly keep the employees in the public offices
at their posts.
The, Government is adopting all possible
measures to combat the disease. It has or
ganized a medical board for the metropolis
and the neighboring towns; prohibited inter
ments within the city; hiif; caused the poor
population of the infected district of Cassim
Pacha to leave it, and has provided them with
tents fot encampments on the summits of the
hills, where a strong breeze constantly pre
rails. Hospitals are established throughout
the city, and medicine is furnished gratis to
the poor. Nevertheless, the misery here is so
great that we cannot expeet to see the,disease
diminish for some time yet. Had proper
quarantine regulations been instituted here
at - Hirst, and vessels from Egypt not have been
allowed fo approach the city until they lied
undergone a proper quarantine at the Darda
nelles, or some more distant point, Constanti
nople might have escaped a visitation of the
cholera. It will be well if you make timely
provision against its introduction in the
United States, for it is evidently on, one of its
periodical tours around the world, and if it
once ge ts foothold among you it will commit
great havoc, in consequence of the misery pre
vailing in the Southern. States, and the many
soldiers diseased by wounds and suffering of
one kind or other.
. . .
The course of the cholera here has been very
Singular in one respect. It dwells in one intr•
titular quarter for a limited period, without
assailing an, adjoining one; and all at once,
and apparently after having performed its
mission, it disappears entirely„ and crosses
into the next neighborhood. Thus it broke
out among the first places at Yeni-kaie and
Stenia, on the Bosphorus ; there it was quite
violent for a short time, and then vanished
altogether. It has now nearly ceased at Para,
and has crossed the Golden Horn to Stamboul,
where, I regret to say, it is very fatal; 700 at
tacks, of which two.thirds are in the Turkish
metropolis proper, occurring yesterday, and
400 deaths, according to the latest bulletin in
the Courriv• 4 1 0riera of to-day. Fortunately,
the people are liming Wore it into the
country, nits dimini s hing the • number of
victims. The number of deaths by cholera.
from its outbreak here are about 1,500 orr 2,200,as a large number must be added to the
officially reported cases. The disease appears
now to have reached its climax - and it is gene

.Herald:
During the prevalence of the cholera
morbus in the different ports of Turkey, any
remarks that may tend to the better know

taken the liberty of addressing you the follow

In proof of these assertions, I may remark—
/W.0.. The cholera, in the present instance,
was introduced into Arabia by pilgrims from
India bringing with them the seeds of the dis
ease. It did - not develop itself untilthe period
of thee Courbani-Dairain, when thousands of '
animals sacrificed, of every size, from a mina downwards ,

vium, combined with the ascent of the Holy
Hill by the pilgrims, bareheaded, in a burning,
tropical inn, and - the free nse of all kinds of
unwholesome , frOits and vegetables, was
mediately succeeded by the outbreak of the
disease? At Djeddah if assumed a compara
tively mild form, only ten per Cent. of the
cases proving , fatal. The pilgrims, on their
passage through Egypt, communicated the
disease, whleh unfortunately proved to be of
a much more fatal type.
The choleraera was also introduced into Turkey
at the commencement of the Crimean war, by a
French steamer with troops from Algiers. ' On
her arrival at Gallipoli it was whispered a few
eases had occurred during the voyage. The
troops were, however, landed ; in afew* days
cholera raged, and the French lost upwards of
2000 men from the disease in this town alone.
From Gallipoli the disease was introduced' into
the-French hospital at,Abydos 'by a few pa
tients, attacked, with the malady, sent from.
thence. Nearly the 'whole .of the other_ pa,
tients were shortly after taken: with , cholera.

A letter from Pithole says: "Typhoid fe

The Raleigh Progress says: From conver
sations with people during a recent trip ex.
tending to Charlotte, as well as from letters,
we infer that the approaching Episcopal Con
vention will attract to Raleigh a great con
course of unofficial as well as official person
ages connected with that large and highly
respectable deneininatien. According to the
call of Bishop Atkinson, the time of meeting
is fixed for the second Wednesday in next
month, and we renew mention of it in the hope
that our citizens may begin the work of get
ting ready to show hospitality to all who
come, whether accredited or unaceredited to
that body. It is the highest manifestation of
refinement to be always ready to open our
doors to those who are temporarily within our
reach, and it is particularly a lovely mani
festation of that good will which ought to
grace and distinguish the Christian world.
Loren Heath, a sailor, whose term of
service in the navy expired about a year ago,
deposited *4OO in the Portsmouth, N. 11.,
Savings Bank. He soon after lost his deposit
book, and then called upon the bank to pay
the 9400. As the book was Ontstandingtand
the deposit payable to the person who .pro
duced the book, the bank declined to pay the
$4OO, unless the depositor would indemify it
for paying without the book. This Heath de-
Mined to do, and sued the bane. At the loot
law term, the Superior Court decided that the
bank was not bound to pay a depositor unless
he produced his deposit book, or indemnified
the bank for paying without the book.
The Richmond Whig wants the Virginia
State Library reopened. The Wing says ; "It
is a great deprivation to the reading portion
of the community to be debarred so long from
the use of the books that crowd the shelves of
the Virginia State Library. The fact that the
Library is occupied as the office of the Secre
tary of the Commonwealth, should not operate
as a barrier against the reopening of the Li
brary, as the same occupation existed through
Confederate times. The chief assistant libra
rian, Mr. Howard, is still in the city, and is
perfectly willing to take upon himself the
responsibility of rearranging the books and
supplying a new catalogue of them, if neces
sary. We hope the necessary steps will be
taken to secure the reopening of the Library
immediately.”
The Petersburg Eslpress of September Ist
says: "The Southside Railroad is now . engaged
in rebuilding their bridge across the Appo
mattox, connecting the depot with the ma
chine-shops on the other side. This bridge, it
will be remembered, was burned by the Con
federates at the time of evacuation, Two or
more engines and a number of ears were upon
the bridge and the track beyond, and were
either destroyed or damaged by the fire. The
engines fell through to the bed of the river,
where they remain now. It is presumed the
company, at some early day, will take mea
sures to raise them, and so repair them as to
make them of some use."

inansburg. This town is of somewhat more
recent date than most of the others situated
in the valley, and contains perhaps one thou•
sand four hundred inhabillgnta. The only
business of importance transacted here is boat
building for the Lehigh canal, although Prat..
mansburg boasts of . several grist mills and
distilleries.
Ere long we reach Bethlehem, which is situ•
ated on the loft bank of the Lehigh, about
twelvd miles above Easton, Perhaps a few
words regarding the early settlement Of this
town might not here be out of Place. The lira
company of Moravians, or United Brethren,
who settled in this country came originally
from Germany, in the year 1781, and founded
a town in the State of Georgia, in the vicinity
of Savannah. Here they lived in peace and
plenty for a time, but, on the breaking out of
a war between England and Spain, the colony
was broken up, and a portion of the colonists
came North, and, in the year 1741, erected the
first house on the spot where Bethlehem now
stands.
On entering the town, the first object of in
terest which comes ender our notice is the
Young Ladies' Seminary, situated on the cor
ner of Main and Church streets, and which
was first opened for the reception of scholars
'• in 1749. Extensive and ornamental additions
have been made from time to time, and large
pleasure grounds laid out, till, at the present
time, it forms one of the most attractive fea
tures in Bethlehem. In close proximity, to
the Seminary is a building used for public
school purposes, which was built in the year
1858, by voluntary subscription. Passing up
Church street, the second house built in, the
town is pointed out to us, and we are told that
the first has long ago passed away. Few of
the old landmarks remain, but this building,to.
gether with the one adjoining, are worthy of
more than a passing notice. BUM of,gray stone
cut in irregular sizes, its quaint roof' and
old-fashioned windows give it a singular inte
rest in our eyes, while the adjoining building,
surmounted by its ancient belfry, with its pro
jecting eaves and double row of dormer win
dows, brings the mind tack to the stories we
have read of the old German towns. This
building is now called the Sister's House, and
is occupied by an elderly class of unmarried
females, whg, for .the remaining portion of
their lives have devoted themselves to good
works.
TAB OLD OR.AVR YARD.
Back of the Sisters' Rouse the tops of tall
poplar trees, waving in the summer breeze,
noint out the spot most sacred to all Bethle
hem—the grave yard. Mere repose the remains
of Bethlehem's early fathers, side by aide with
the missionary and Indian, teaching us all in
these days of political strife, the great lesson
of equality in death.
A horizontal slab of marble alone marks
their last resting place, and lThfcild to the
reader but an impartial record of their lives.
Tall poplars and waving oaks stand sentry
over the habitations of the dead, and, as we
ramble along the walks, 'neath the leafy
trees, the very stillness of the air seems to
tell us we are in the presence of death. On
the southern portion of the town, is Niskey's
Bill, which has been selected by the Bethle
hem congregation as the site of .a new bury
ing ground. Winding paths traverse the hill
in all directions, and on a summer evening
pleaBure parties come here tObreathe thepure
evening air, and enjoy the magnificent view
afforded them from the extreme southern
point of the hill.
The river flowing as it does directly past
the town, offers strong inducements to lovers
of aquatic sports, and at all hours of the day
boats may be seen plying up or down, or an
chored in mid-stream, while the occupants
amuse themselves with fishing. After the
busy hours of the day are past, and the time
for reereationfarrived, numbers may be seen
in their tiny skiffs en route for the island.
With foliage so dense as almost to obscure the
rays of the summer moon, this spot, of all re
sorts around Bethlehem, is the favorite.
Bethlehem, as it is, offers great inducements
to those who seek rest andpleasure. Connected
to-day with the two largest cities on our con
tinent, in course of time it must be marked
out as one of the most thriving towns in our
State. J. It. S.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH.
THE DAILY, SUNDAY, AND WEEKLY CHRONICLE.
X/10 W alma oponeu to tree - opmem mule -
Southern States of the American Union by the
defeat of the rebellion and the constitutional
overthrow of the institution of slavery, has
necessitated a Mere vigorous and universal
literature. One of the habits of the old party
leaders was to exclude from the people of
the South, by positive orders, or laws, and
by continual misrepresentation, all varieties
of books and newspapers that ventured to
-discuss the delicate subject of human servi
tude, and its manifold incidental relations.
Plow little this policy contributed to the pros
perity of the mass, to the security of the
wealthy minority, or tothepreservation of the
institution itself, may be read in the sudden
and violent beginning of the war, and its no
less sudden and overwhelming close. Not to re
open the fruitless discussion as to the respon
sibility for these tremendous revolutionary
events, it is the duty of all the people of the
republie to address thelnaelVea tO the new eoA
ditlon of things. Every- consideration will
constrain them to prompt and thorough mea
sures. Already the business centres of the
North are stirred with preparations for the re
vival of Ccenraerce between the late separated
States. The rebuilding and equipping of the
great lines of travel and transportation by
land and water, and the resumption of work
upon extensive individual and corporate
enterprises for the development Of the marvel
ions resources of the Southern country., aresure
signs that there will presently be a cordial
co-operation between men and sections solong
and so unhappily alienated. That this feeling
may increase and extend is the prayer of
every humane and patriotic citizen. No wise,
and certainly no philanthropic-man will op
pose it. In a large degree the most whole
some and powerful agent in a mission so im
portant to the general welfare will be found in
a public journal established at and speaking
from the National Capital, eapablle of discuss
ing vital questions with inagnanbriity and
fairness, and dedicated to a practicalrestora-
tion of lasting good relations-,between the
North and the South. Such public ' jour
nal is the WASHINGTON DAILY, • SUNDAY,
and WR
-1/HLY CHRONICLE. The Editor and
Proprietor is not unknown to many
thousands .of the Southern 'people. Dur
ing a number of years he sustained the best
and most intimate connections with some of
the foremost men of the contending parties.
Attached for a long time to the party that
acted in sympathy with the Southern noliti
clans, and cutting loose from it only when con
vinced that they were bent upon producing ,
the very calamities which followed the ou -
break of the revolt against the National Go
vernment, and most fatally disclosed in the
fearful catastrophe of its defeat, he claims to
understand the habits and wants of the people
of that afflicted region. With this knowledge
of the Southern character, he cannot, there
fore, deal with it in any but the most generous
and enlightened spirit. From the beginning
of the last national dispute he labored alike
through Tina CHRONICLE and other sources,
JO show that the rebellioff was not the ; work
of the Southern people, however they may,
have been finally driven into its support. 'For`
months before the end Of the Buehanae Ad_
ministration, he pleaded for the most con
ciliatory and healing measures, in conjunc
tion with the Accepted national men of the
country. The. intimate friend of Stephen A.
Douglas, he steadily co-operated with that
lamented patriot in warning his South
ern countrymen against the fatal follow
ing of the Breekinridge leaders, and, after
Mr. Lincoln's election in 1860, against
the yet more fatal attempt to disre
gard that fair constitutional deeree of the
ballot-boxes. Conducted at the National
Capital, where, atter an experience such as
araly falls to the lot of any newspaper, it has
secured a permanent position, and is now read
and circulated in all parts of the Union, Tits
CHRONICLE Will hereafter be the object of more
than his usual attention and care. During the
war, it was the immediate and favorite medi
um of the hundreds and thousands of men in
the Union armies ; and now that they have
departed for their homes, it is still read by
them, and may justly aspire to speak their
liberal and magnanimOus sentiments toward
the rank and ille of their late adversaries in
arms. Sustaining, with all that independen3e
which is the result of a position secured by
indomitable energy and unceasing industry,
during the years that are now only remem
bered as a bloody dream and admonition, a
near relation to the National Administration,
ilret under Lincoln and now under Johnson,
TB CHRONICLE will be worthy of the con
fidence of all those citizens in the South who
really desire to act in good faith to the Go.
vernment, and to enjoy the forgiveness and
favor so nobly offered by the present head of
lis General Administration. To these andto all
ho see that there is a common interestplead
:ng for a solid and complete restoration of the
Union—an interest co-extensive with. the
!;mits of the Republic—equally strong, we

APPEARANOB OF A BODY A YEAR AND A HALF
AFTER DEATH.—The remains of Miss Buchanan,
of Pittsburg, a supposed victim to poisoning,
were exhumed last week for medical examina
-1,1011, The body was found to be very much de
composed, the flesh having been entirely con
sumed from the face anus, neck, breast, etc.,
and was fast resolvin into its original dust.
The bones of the hands lay exposed upon the
breast, and the hair still adhered to the skull,
but at the slightest touch it fell off and settled
in the coffin. The skull was first removed, as
the chemist, Dr. Wirth, desired to examine the
remains of the brain. Dr. MeCoOk, Jr., then
removed the mass of mortar-like matter found
in the region of the- throat and abdomen, ta
king out the liver, lungs, stomach ac., or rath
er the decomposed remains of these organs.
The quantity removed was about three or four
pounds in weight, but sufficient in the opinion
of the chemist, for the purpose in view. The
silk dress was found qmte firm, and its colors
well preserved. A portion of it was cut off by
Mr. Devote, and will be retained in case it
should be required on the trial. The coffin was
then closed u and the remains consigned
once more to the grave.—Pittsburg paper.

OBITUARY.
Death Is ever an unwelcome visitor tt
but in no instance is he more so than
throws his dark shadow across our UN : O,
takes away with him one around wboi n h ' t
te red the heart's dearest and tendcreq ti
of a beloved child is a severe one to o
united family. A greater loss Is that 61 a
loved parent to the orphaned children, h a ,
and deeper than all is the loss of the trini .
loved wife to him who is left to mourn in s,,t ,
bereavement the partner of his Ilk, tlo
his early love, the one who made III: Itn
bright and happy. Such a loss has boon
in the decease of Mrs. EMELINg 6, I,i;,
excellent wife of Mr. BENJAMIN LEVI
detective force of the city of Bldlaschsh,,
period of thirt7-eight years this ,
passed hand In band adown the thorny, rur ,
of life, at the last loving each other •
affection as fresh and cordial as when
joined hands to make life's weary niloc
gether. This long period of their inarri,,i
as uninterrupted in its harmony awl ro w
was characterized by the (let - 00mm
social relations which not only make tliv i n ,
life altogether desirable, but shed a ploy],
around those who are privileged to be ac
within the circle of their acquaintance.
It affords the writer of the present aril,
pleasure to Speak of Mrs. Levy as pos,cssn
those womanly virtues that erbeill the .
finished work of the Creator, and the lan i
to man. Socially, she endeared herself la
circle of friends by a kindness of master ;
tleness of temper, and the daily practl.a.
virtues which so eminently adorned her eh
while in the domegle relations of wife awl
her life was one daily examide of ittit , 4,
and charity, surrounding a happy hoasefl
an atmosphere of wifely fidelity and .
tenderness, love, and care. •
The bereaved family have the warmest
of a large and mourning circle of fries,
cherish her memory with a saddened joy 1i
Wham they can truly say—
None knew herbal to line
None'named her but to prase,
