Orn TRITE POLICY.
The tree interests of the American peo
ple will be better served at this important
period of our national history by a thorough
find complete development of the immense
resources of our existing territory than by
any rash attempts to increase it. Efforts
are constantly being made to embroil us in
/ war with France, on the pretext of en
forcing the Monroe doctrine in Mexico,
which might possibly lead to the ad
dition of a few more Mexican. States
to our domain; and some journals are
endeavoring to create a popular passion
for the annexation of Canada, which may
tend to involve us in difficulties with Great
Britain. In due time both these 'acquisitions
may be peaceably and honorably made.
But the true way to acquire additional ter
ritory, is to got'eM well and wisely that
Which we now possess, and to so
advance - the freedom and prosperity
of our whole people that the inhabitants of
neighboring countries will envy their lot,
and earnestly seek the protection of our
benign Government. Peace is now our
first necessity. Our war-worn people need
its healing influences Sp readjust their de
ranged industrial system, to acquire addi
tional wealth, to defray the expenses of the
recent conflict, and to prosecute the nu
merous important enterprises upon which
our future welfare largely depends.
The great requisites of a powerful and
vigorous nation arc, that it should be
sound at the heart, animated by lofty
impulses, wise in council, firm, united,
and energetic in action. Compact England
controls a large part of use we ria simply
through the vigor of her home govern
ment and the skill with which she has
developed the varied industrial powers of her
people. The loyal States of America are the
real sources of the present vitality of our
eptmtry, and it behooves them to carefully
preserve the unity of feeling and of purpose
which carried them triumphantly through
the war for the Union, and enabled them
to thwart alike the open attacks of domes
tic foes and the wily machinations of
foreign enemies. We need peace to in
crease their resources, as well as to facili
tate the work of reorganization which, it is
hoped, -will make the seceding States firm
allies and friends hereafter. All the mighty
energies which were exercised in the recent
strife can find profitable employment in
numerous occupations and pursuits which
promise magnificent rewards for energetic
labor. The cities and towns of the North
need thousands of mechanics to build the
new houses required for the accommo
dation of their increasing population,
and in the South many ravaged towns
must soon be rebuilt. In the North
and West millions of fertile acres are
awaiting cultivators to furnish supplies
Of breadstuffs and provisions, and in the
South hundreds of millions of acres capa
ble of yielding the most profitable crops of
modern agriculture are lying idle. Manu
factures of many kinds axe still in their
infancy, and thousands of new establish
ments could find a profitable demand in
OUT home market under a proper protec
tive tariff. The railroads of the South
need repair, or, in many cases, reconstruc
tion. And the era has clearly arrived when
our national interests imperatively demand
tlisTheedy completion of a railway that
will connect the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts. This measure will prove of itself
of incalculable advantage to the country.
It will not only open up to settlement the
teeming prairies that stretch 'westward
to the Rocky mountains, and hasten
the development of the vast mineral
treasures that lie buried in the au
riferous bosoms of our new Territories,
but it will give us the - ees
commerce of the world by making our con-
Llie shortest and best route of com
nelnientina,lintn-op • c`—` --- • -
Mena Europe. i the tedious and dan
gerous voyages around Cape Horn
and the Cape of Good Hope will be
succeeded by short and easy, passages
in steam. vessels from the East Indies,
China, or Japan, to California or Ore
gon, thence across our continent to
Philadelphia or New York, and thence to
Liverpool and European ports. The dream
of COL - MB - us will be realized at last and
the passage from Europe to Asia will be
made by following a course due west. Such
a revolution as this 1.12 the commerce of
mankind would do infinitely more
to increase our prosperity than any
territorial acquisition we could possi
bly make. It was only in old barbaric
times that a nation, after having been suc
cessful in one war, thought it was wasting
all its energies and opportunities until it
commenced another. War with us is the
exception, not the rule. Our grandest con
quests are made in peace, and it is the
wealth and power we gain in peace that
enables us to conduct war, when it be
comes necessary, with the waistless vigor
which signalized our recent campaigns.
We have now no active enemies to subdue
except the Indians, who are impeding the
Westward progress of civilization. It will
require but a comparatively slight effort to
hold them in check, and all our remaining
energies are available for the vigorous pro
SeetttiOn of our Ordinary industrial pursuits
and the gigantic new enterprises to which
we have referred. Let public attention cen
tre, then, not upon schemes of conquest, or
entanglements in the affairs of foreign lands,
but upon the development of the mighty re-
sources of our own magnificent country.
Let us summon to our aid industrious and
thrifty emigrants from Europe, and, wisely
diversifying our industry, gain that pre
eminence over all other nations, alike in
agriculture, manufectures, commerce, and
mining, which is clearly in our reach
if our energies are properly directed, If
we pursue this policy, in good time Canada
and Mexico will fall into our possession as
naturally as the ripe apple falls to the
ground. If we waste our energies now in
impolitic wars, we may not only fail to ac
complish their avowed objects, but impair
our credit and fearfully weaken our whole
political system.
DEMORALIZATION OF PARTIES.
If there is one thing certain, it is that the
doctrines of the politicians who-helped the
Democratic party to so many years of de
feat, are still accepted as gospel truths by
the thousands who obeyed their behests
and followed their lead. It was in
vain that these doctrines were shown
to be unsound and dangerous. The clearer
this fact was made to appear, the more the
leaders insisted upon their opinions, and
called upon their disciples for support.
Hence, when the New York Democrats
resolved to throw all the Copperhead
agitators overboard, and gracefully to
Surrender " to the Union party, there
Was a loud and angry ,protesting howl.
The New Y ork News, representing the
FnawAnno and B.mr Noon interest, has
not yet given in its adhesion to the State
ticketof the late Democratic State Conven
tion; and it is evident that men and news
papers of the same school in Ohio, New
Jersey, and Pennsylvania, will refuse
to join in the surrender of the politician's
who placed peneral SLocuM iu. nomination
a few days ago, and twice endorsed the
policy and the administration' of ANDREW
jovssori. The resolutions of the New
York Demoernis are as different from the
resolutions of the Democrats in Ohio and
Pennsylvania as are the latter from the re
solutions otlhe Union men of Pennsylvania
in their recent convention. Judge BLACK,
W, B. REED, and FRANCIS W. HUGHES Call
no more support the action of their New
York brethnn than they can the action of
66 the Abolitionists" and "Radicals" of
•
their own State. - In lowa the 4inpathi
zeers with secession, headed by the il
lustrious GEORGE W. JONES, the friend
of JEFFERSON DAVIS, openly repudiate the
Democratic State ticket; and in New Jer
sey General RuNvort is running for Go
vernor on a Democratic platform strongly
denunciatory of President Jourfoort. See
ing the tendency to utter ruin in these un
mistakable signs, the New York Democrats
cut loose from their false guides, and are now
making•a vigorous etrort to out-bid even the
most earnest of the Union politicians. We
note these indications with a hopeful feel
ing. If the whole Northern people could
be actuated by one sentiment—Or, rather,
if the arts and sophistries of designing poli
ticians were not permitted to divert and
divide the natural loyalty of the masses it
would make little difference who held the
offices. Parties must always exist ; they are
essential to, the purification of politics, and
mu to the safety of the country ; but when
the great body of the citizens resolve to
make devotion to the Republic a primary
duty, we can well afford to treat differen
ces on subordinate issues with the utmost
complacency.
SOIITHEEN CONGRESSMEN.
By an existing law of Congress, every
member must take an oath setting forth
that he never voluntarily bore arms against
the united States ; that he has held no
office under a hostile authority, or pretend
ed authority, and yielded no voluntary sup
port to such an organization, The provi
sions of this law are being carefully brought
to the attention of the people of Virginia,
now that they are about to hold their
congressional elections ; and they are
warned in advance by leading journals,
as well as by a letter from Gov. PEIRPONT,
that if they elect officers of the rebel
army, or officials who were identified in
any way with the civil service of the COD,
federaey, they.cannot expect that Congress
will repeal an existing qualification, now
universally applied) for the special benefit of
their members, and that they must, there
fore, either return mon guiltless of complici
ty -.vim the rebellion or remain unrepre
sented. As this rule applies to all the States,
it furnishes a short and easy method of pre
venting the admission of any notorious re
bel to a seat in Congress, and will consti
tute an effectual barrier to the aspirations of
all rebel candidates for congressional
honors.
THE BROAD.STREET QUESTION.
Nearly all the leading journals have
united in protesting against the project of
running steam passenger and freight trains
through what the Ledger justly calls " the
finest avenue of the city," This =natal
concert of sentiment is produced by the
attempt of "the Central Passenger Rail
way" to run " dummy" steam engines
on a city railroad along Broad street Alid
what renders the demonstration more
pointed is the fact that the parties threaten
ing this great public outrage shield them
selves under a series of laws passed by the
legislature of Pennsylvania. The people,
who rarely seem to think of inquiring into
the character and qualifications of candi
dates for office, but go to the ballot
boxes on election days and vote the
party tickets without even knowing the
names of the men who are on them,
now and then wake up in great rage to
find themselves at the mercy of as sorry
and reckless a gang of gamesters as ever
cheated at common cards. < We do not say
that this is the style of men who claim, an
"vested der their web of vested rights," to run
steam-engines along Broad street, for the
conveyance of passengers, but as their char
ter is liberal enoughto be stretched so as to
put ai‘ dummy" on all other streets, we
suspect the inventors of that elastic diploma
are among, the sharp ones that the good
people of Philadelphia often send to liarris
burg to fill their own pockets, while they
are picking the pockets of the State and
their constituents. And to this scheme the
great public say no ! and the great press say
no ! But the swindlers having got the "law
on us," lauh in their sleeves—ay, in our
faces—and propose to go and do it. When
will this locking-the-door- after -the -horse•is
stolen business be abandoned ? When
will decent men see to it that decent awn
are put in au "
representative ? We hope, most earnestly
per idy will succeed. Some parts of Broad
street are so grid-ironed by railroad tracks
as to make it unpleasant for private dwell
ings. That section of it along, the Opera
House, and southward, is in many respects
a shameless nuisance. We have sometimes
indulged a mysterious hope that these iron
corduroys would be taken up, so as to give
us one . unobstructed highway—a sort of
boulevard—from League Island north ; and
a grand thoroughfare it - would he ! But
even as we have cherished it, here is a
scheme to seize upon the northern end of
that noble street, to tie it up with these
chains, to blacken its face, and to hammer
its houses between the blows of noisy dum
mies and make property holders wild with
the shrieks of insane locomotives. Let us
thank our good stars that there is as yet
no charter to put railroads and steamers
into our public squares. If they were
large enough to tempt the enterprising .en
pidity of some of our progressive citizens,
they - would, no doubt, soon resound to the
drums of the dummies and the fifes of the
engines.
CONFTREIATIONS of our special despatch
announcing the straits of JUAREZ, the
Liberal commander in Mexico, came
thronging in for days after its publication,
and we published one or two of them, more
`for the benefit of the public than out of any
desire to reply to those who looked upon
the despatch as a " roorback." Now we
have the realization of our speculations
even. JUAREZ has been driven out of
Chihuahua, his army is dispersed, and he
is really flying to El Paso. This is a little
town on the Rio Grande; on the boundary
line between Chihuahua and Arizona, and
Jl3AnEz's flight to it means that he intends
seeking protection in the United States.
Time the head of the Liberal Government
-the " President" of Mexico—is without
.
an army, and without the correspon.ding
authority. The only army of importance
left is that of his Secretary of War, and
that is thst resolving itself into prowling
guerilla bands, who inflict as much injury
on their own countrymen as they do upon
the Imperialist&

for each branch respectively, which extent of
representation is the maximum. The Gover
nor's salary is fixed at two thousand dollars
per year, the Secretary of State at one thou

A special despatch to the Pittsburg Commer
cial says : .
" The nomination of General Patrick for the
State treasuryship of New York, on the Demo.
eratie ticket, was received here with a howl of
surprise and indignation by every man eon
versant with, tleiftetiniertzlif ArmSr of - the
POibmac. That office was persistently„opea
n ately, and pp_mity_ o p.
1314WIfferyengineered against every repre
sentative of the loyal newspaper press of the
North and West. It repressed and discouraged
the vigorous prosecution of the war, and fos
tered sympathy with the rebellion, and held
np slavery with both hands. The newspaper
men hi lirashington, without distinction of
party, regard Gen. Patrick's nomination as an
outrage on their- profession and a defiance of
the public sentiment of the army which
'writhed and suffered under his tyranny:,
Colonel Davis.
[From the Doylestown liitenigencer.)
The following choice extracts from the
Doylestown Democrat, of which Colonel Davis,
the present Democratic candidate for Auditor
General of this State, was and is the editor and
proprietor, are given for the purpose of show
ing the sentiments which were disseminated
by that paper while he held an omelet position
under the Government which was so bitterly
assailed in its pages. As Colonel Davis is now
before the people asa-candidate for public of
fice, and is desirous of receiving their votes,
and since he was undoubtedly nominated on
account of his having been engaged" in the
war, and therefore likely to be more available
before the public on that account, it is but just
that the. kind of aid his newspaper rendered
the Government, and the sympathy it extend
ed to its noble, llustrious and lamented chief
in his efforts to crush out treason and rebel
lion, should be again given to the community.
An editorial article in the Democrat of Au
gust 21d, Bal, when Colonel Davis was still an
officer in the army, reads as follows
" With an immense army, a good navy, and
the ports of the Confederacy blockaded, we
have gained virtually nothing, and will have
gained nothing until we . defeat the two main
armies of the South. The reasons why we
have been so unfortunate, are plain and un
derstandable. Mr. Lincoln committed himself
to an emancipation policy. Ile hereby aban
doned the war for reunion, and made it a war
absolutely and unequivocally for ;the negro.
Slavery shall not live,' was his motto. Be- .
yond this was an object dearer to his heart—
his own re-election—which he esteemed more
than a hundred thousand lives. These were
his two motives for abandoning the principles
of our Government; and of perverting the war,
For these purposes, and these only, has the
war been prolonged; for these purposes were
the soldiers massacred at Waste°, and the
army of General Grant defeated and foiled;
for these purposes has another draft been or
dered ; for these purposes have elections been
carried by force of arms, and ' bogus States ,
declared in the Union; for these purposes
have thousands been hurled under Confede
rate sod; for these purposes have the forts and
bastiles of the country been filled with fearless
patriots who dare expose the profligacy: of
Abolition, and the corruption and despotism
of-Abraham Lincoln.
" The people are now to decide between this
state of affairs and peace—between the old
Government and a new despotism—between
the protection of our liberties and the surren
der of them to an arbitrary and . perfidious
ruler. Peace ended with the administration
of James Buchanan, and war, bloody, remorse
less war, began with the inauguration of Abra
ham Lincoln. We have tried war for three
years ;• let us now try to effect what war has
failed to do. There is no doubt that Mr. Lin
coln has done more to cement the States of
the Confederacytogether than any man on the
continent. lie has pursued a policy calculated
to divide the sentiment of the North and har
monize that of the South. Yet he has now the
presumption to ask a re•election. The ques
tion will be ; Lincoln and hiS war, or the Chi
cago nominee and peace for re-union. -
" - It is a mistaken idea that peace means
slavish submission to the Confederacy. It
means nothing of the kind. No Democrat ever
_expressed his willingness to concede to dis
honorable compromise. We have tried war
and found by a sad experience that it is Su
premely profitless, and that Lincoln and big
hirelings are incapable of managing a cam
paign successtilly if they wished. Something
must be done. The Democratic party pro
poses, if we Judge aright, to restore the Union
under. the Constitution by peaceable means.
Blr. Lincoln has put the prolongation of the
war out of the question. Our nation is almost
bankrupt, and every branch of industry is suf
fering for want of men therefore are men
called upon to join the standard of peace for
re-union, and defeat the party in power which
is more nor less than a thoroughly diSunien
party."
Again, from a leading editorial of August 30,
the week after, we quote the following :
" The Confederates contend that they have
made an agreement with the Fede,rals for the
proper and speedy exeluinge of prisoners;
that they have faithfully observed the provi
sions of It, and have frequently proposed ex
change on its basis.. But Mr. Lincoln says no.
Be will permit the white soldiers of the North
to rot in the scorching sun, and the Federal
army to become a skeleton, before he will
agree to an exchange which does not recognize
his tyranny, and court his despotic will.
" What is the consequence of Mr. Lincoln's
refusal I The suffering of our brave and galktnt
soldiers. They are left to die on Southern soil
rather than relinquish the policy of negro
equality. The Confederates are accused of in
ordinate barbarity, in order to conceal the
despotism and criminal fanaticism of our Pre
sident. Let the soldiers remember that Abra
ham Lincoln made a solemn agreemen t for the
exchange of prisoners of war, and broke it, be
cause it did not include negro soldiers, many
of whom are runaway slaves of the South.
Let them remember that all their sufferings
and privations while in captivity were nomad
tated by the contracted policy . of Mr. Lincoln.
Let them remember that their rights, honor,
and their liberty , are outraged on account of
the negro ; and done by a President of the
United - States.
" The negro is the idol of Abolitionism. The
whites may die in forts and prison-camps, be
cause the negro is not recognized as his equal
by the Confederates. This fact proves that our
present warfare is a weak tight for negro
equality, and negro liberty. No evidence can be
found that we are fighting for reunion and the
Constitution. The war IS perverted and the
man guilty of the aetpresumptuouslyasks the
suffrages of the people and of the soldiers in
the. army. Let the people renieniber him.
Let the wives and children of the prisoners
of war recollect that be is the fountain head of
their sufferings; and if they becoine widows
and orphans, that he is the murderer. Let the
prisoners remember him when they eat their
last scanty 'morsel, and if the people of this
country are true to themselves and to our, suf
fering soldiers, they will pronounce him gatiart

THE RESTORATION OF THE SOUTH.
Full Report of President Johnson's Wed to
the Southern Delegations,
We yesterday gave a telegraphic report of
the conference between a delegation of South.
erners and P1'014104 johneop, at the zxecu
tive Mansion, on Monday. ,The following is
the fall report of the speeches on the occasion:
XR. X'FARLAND'S srnicelf.
The delegation was admitted soon after ele
ven o'clock, and presented to the president as
follows by Mr. McFarland, of Virginia:
Mu. PRESIDENT: The gentlemen accompany
ing me, and whom I have the honor of intro
diming to you constitute a number of the
most respectable citizens of nine of the South
ern States. They come, air, for the purpose Of
manifesting the sincere respect and regard
they entertain for you, and to express their
sincere determination to co-operate with you
in whatever shall tend to promote the inte
rests and welfare of our common country, and
to say that they are aS earnest now and faith
ful to their allegiance to the - witted States and
to the Constitution of the union as in the past,
and that they have great confidence in your
wisdom to heal the wounds that have been
made, and in your disposition to exercise all
the leniency which can be commended by a
sound and judicious policy. That they are as
sured, in doing this, of your desire and intem
tion to sustain and maintain Southern rights
in the union of the United States.
PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S P.EPI.T.
The President was surprised at the imposing
appearance of the delegation, and was evL
dently much affected in reply. Every gesture
and utterance was full of subdued eloquence.
The reply was as follows :
GENTLEMEN: I Can only say, in reply to the
remarks of your chairman, that I am highly
gratified to receive the assurances he has
given me. They are more that: I could have
expected under the circumstances. I must say
I was unprepared to receive so numerous a
delegation on this occasion,. it was unexpect
ed ; I bad no idea it was to be so large or re
present so many States. When I expressed,
as I did s my willingness to see at any time so
many of you as chose to do me the honor to
call upon me, and stated that I should.be. grati
fled at receiving any manifestations of regard
you might think proper to makel-was totally
unprepared for anything equal to the present
ernenstration. lam free to say it excites in pay
mind feeliims and emotions that language is
totallyinaffequate to express. When I look
back upon my past actions, and recall a period
scarcely more than four short years ago, when
I stood battling for principles which many of
you opposed and thought were wrong, I was
battling for the stone principles that actuate
me to-day, and which principles I thank my
God, you have come forward on this occasion
to manifest a disposition to support. I say
•
now, as I have said on many former occasions,
that ' I entertain no personal resentments, en
mities or animosities to any living soul south
of Mason and Dixon's line, however much he
may have differed from me in principle. The
stand I then took I claim to have been the
only true one. I remember how I stood please.
lug with my Southern brethren when they
stood with their bats in their hands ready to
turn their backs upon the United States; how
I implored them to stand with Mc there and
maintain our rights and fight our battles under
the laws and Constitution of the United
States. I think now, as I thought then,
and endeavored to induce them to be
lieve, that our true position Wee under
the law and under the Constitution of the
Union with the institution of slavery in it;`
but if that principle made an issue that ren
dered a disintegration possible—if that made
an issue which should prevent us from trans
mitting to our children a country as bequeath
ed to us by our fathers—a had nothing oleo to
do but stand by the Government, be tb.e conse
quences - what they might ; I said then, what
you all know, that I was for the institutions
of the country as
all
by tile Constitu
tion, but above all things I was for the Union
Of tbe States. I remember the -tenets, the
jeers, the scowls with which I was treated. I
remember the circle that stood around me,
and remember the threats and intimidations
that were freely uttered by the men who
opposed me. and whom I wanted to be
friend and guide by the light that led me;
but feeling conscious in Impou - n integrity,
and that I was right, I heeded not what they
_might say or do to me, and was inspired and
encouraged to do my duty regardless of aught
else, and have lived to see the realization of
my predictions and the fatal error of those
Whom I Vainly essayed to save from the results
I could not but foresee. Gentlemen, We have
passed through this rebellion. I say we, for it
is we who are responsible for it. Yes, the
South made the issue, and I know the nature
of the Southern people well enough to know
that when they have become convinced of an
error they frankly acknowledge it, in a manly,
open, direct manner ; and now, in the perform
ance of that duty, or, indeed, in any act they
undertake to perform, they do it heartily and
frankly ; and now that they come tome, I un
derstand them as saying that : "We made the
issue. We set up the Union at the States
against the institution of slavery; we Se
lected as arbitrator the God of battles ;
the arbitrament was the sword. The is
sue was fairly and honorably unit. Both
'the questions presented have been settled
against us, and we are prepared to accept
the issue." I find on all sides this spirit of
candor and honor prevailing. It is said by
all The issue was ours, end thej aft - menthes:
been given against us ; and the decision having
been made against us, we feel bound in honor
to abiae by the arbitrament. In doing this
we are doing ourselves no dishonor, and should
not feel humiliated or degraded, but rather
that We are ennobling ourselves by our action 5
and we should feel that the Government has
treated us magnanimously, and meet the Go
verresseptimereiress - terms it has so magnani
personally, I siesso=uwet. , ^ ,, Ca-e....-5'..P.a.rX... 1 7--
wheiher affects the North or the South, the
.AD <xi the West. I stand where I did of old,
battling_ for the Constitution and the union of
these united States. In doing so, I know
I opposed some of you gentlemen of the
South when this doctrinlffof secession was being
urged upon the country, and the declaration
of your right to break up the Government and
disintegrate the Union was made. I stand to
day, as I ever steed, firmly in the opinion that
if a monopoly contends against this country
the monopoly must go down, and the country
must go up. Yes, the issue was made by the
South against the Government, and the Go
vernment has triumphed ; and the South, true
to her ancient instincts of frankness and man
ly honor, comes forth and expresses her
lin gness to abide the result of the decision in
good faith. While I think that the rebellion
has been arrested and subdued, and am happy
in the consciousness of a duty well performed,
I want not only you but the people of the
world to know thatwinle I dreaded and feared
disintegration of the States, I am equally op.
posed to consolidation or concentration of
power here, under whatever guise or
name ; and - if the issue is forced upon us,
I shall still endeavor to pursue the same ef
forts to tlisuade from this doctrine of running
to extremes; but I say let the same rules be
applied. Let the Constitution be our guide.
Let the preservation of that and the union of
the States be our principal aim. Let it be our
hope that the Government may be perpetual,
and that the prinbiples of the Government,
founded as they are on righloand justice may
be handed down without spot or blemish to
our posterity. As I have before remarked to
you, I am gratified to see so many of you here
to-day. It manifests a spirit I am pleased to
observe. I know it has been said of Me thatmy
asperities are sharp, that I hadvindietive feel
ings to gratify, and that I should not fail to
avail myself of the opportunities that would
present themselves to gratify such despicable
feelings. Gentlemen, if my acts will not speak
for me and for themselves, then any professions
I might now make would be equally useless.
lint, gentlemen, if I know myself as I think
I do, 1 know that I am of the Southern people,
and I love them and willelo all in my power to
restore them to teat state of happiness and
prosperity which they enjoyed. before - the
madness of misguided men, in whom they had
reposed their confidence, led them astray to
their own undoing. If there - is anything that,
can be done on my part, on correct principles,
on the principles of the Constitution to pro
mote these ends, be assured it shall tie done.
Let me assure you, also, that there is no dis
dosition on the part of the Government to
eal harshly with the Southern people. There
may be speeches published from various; quar
ters that may breathe a different spirit. Do
not let them trouble or excite you, but be
lieve that it is, es it is, the great object of the
Government to make the union of these
United States more complete and perfect than
ever, and to - Maintain it on constitutional
principles, if possible, more firmly than it
has ever before been. Then wliycannot we all
come up to the work in a proper spirit? In
other words, let us look to the Constitution.
The issue has been made and decided ; then,
as wise men—as men who see right and are de
tei Mined to follow it as fathers and brothers,
and as men who love their country in this
hour of trial and suffering—why cannot we
come up and help to settle the questions of
the hour and adjust them aceordeng to. the
principles of honor and of justice? The insti
tution of slavery is gone. The former status
of the negro had to , be changed, and we, as
wise men, must recognize so patent a fact, and
adapt ourselves to circumstances as they
surround us. [Voices. We are willin to do
so. Yes, sir, we are willing to do so.]l be.
Bove you are. I believe when yourfaith is
pledged, when your consent has been given, as
I have already said, I believe it will be main
tained in good faith, anti every pledge or
promise fully carried out. [Cries—lt will.]
All I ask or desire of the South' or the
North, the -East or the West, is to be sus
tained in carrying out the principles of the
Constitution. It is not to be denied that we
have been sufferers on both sides. Good men
have fallen on both sides, and much misery is
being endured as the necessary result of so
gigantic a contest. Why, then, cannot we
come together, and around the common altar
of our country heal the wounds that have
been made; Deep wounds have been inflicted.
Our country has been scarred all over. Then
why cannot 'we approach each other upon
principles which are right in.themselves, and
which will be productive of good to all I The
day is not distant when we shall feel like some
family that have had a. deep and desperate
feud, the various members of which have
come together and compared the evils and
sufferings they had inflicted upon each other.
They had Steen the influence of their error and
its results, and, governed by a generous
spirit of conciliation, they had become
mutually forbearing and forgiving, and re
turned to their old habits of fraternalkin—a
mess,
and become better friends than ever. Then let
us consider that the feud which alienated us
has been settled and adjusted to our mutual
eatiefaetion and that we come together to be
bound by firmer bonds of love, respect, and
confidence than ever. The North cannot get
along without the South, nor the South from
the North, the East from the West, nor the
West from the East; and I say it is our duty to
do all that in our power lies to perpetuate and
make stronger the bonds Of our Union, seeing
that it is for the common gOod of all that we
should •be united. I feel that this Union,
though but the creation of a century, is to be
perpetuated for all time, and that it cannot be
destroyed except by the all-wise God who
created it. Gentlemen, I repeat I sincerely
thank you for the respect manifested on this
occasion; and for the expressions of appro.
batten and confidence please accept my sin
cere thanks.

MOSQUITO COMBAT.e4IIO alarming and
growing prevalence of mosquitoes in this
city will enable our readers to appreciate the
following account of a combat with them:
" Thp physical powers of mosquitoes are un
usually vigorous this season, considering the
fact that they are up so much at nights. With
the Single exception of retiring late, their
other habits, we believe, are regular. They
have a peculiar system of gymnastics that
give an sturdy development to their muscles,
and using their voices a good deal in festive
chorus, has the effect to strengthen their lungs
and ward off any tendear to pulmonary com
plaint. They sat up with us last night in
strong force, and attacked us in single compa
nies and in battalions. While our attention
was diverted by a brisk skirmishing party on
our right, the enemy had massed on our left,
and made so sudden and well directed an at
tack, that we wen driven haireiit of bed.
Taking advantage of a lull in hostilities,during
which the enemy seemed to be holding a con
enitation of war, we crawled steathily out of
bed, leaving the mosquitoes beneath the bar,
and took to the sofa. They missed. us very
soon, and seat out a item* WllO Was not long
Ascertaining our whereabouts and reporting,
when the whole force charged upon us with a
violence that was increased by rage at our
momentary escape. So the contest raged all
night, lighting from the bed to the sota, and
from the sofa to the bed. Our lose was a pint
of blood and a total loss of sleep. Loss of the
enemy not known. They were several hours
in burying their dead, however. We could
not pass such another night though it 'twere
to buy a world of happy days.'
"Besides the Bliss Sleetoes we are certain we
recognized the voices of 3fr. and Mrs. Sketoe.
The Sketoe family was largely represented in
cousins, relatives by marriage, &c. We felt
before morning that they were all blood rela
tives to us." •

THE WATKINS' ENTERTAINMENT.—We wit

clever couple, at the Assembly Buildings,
Tenth and Chestnut streets, last evening, and
can assure our readers that it Two HOSTS in

no misnomer, as tliey are intensely funny.
We are sure if the weather was cooler the hall
would be crowded, as nobody who saw them
once but would wish to go again. Mo. Watkins
is really a very good vocalist, and the young
lady who presides at the piano, Miss Shaw, is
an excellent performer. We would advise our
readers to pay them a visit, as they will be
well repaid.

CITY ITENCS.
wastutnn & Wu.sonia SEWING BIACIIINES.-.•
The highest compliment that could be paid to
the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machines, is the
fact that over 20,000 of them have been sold, of
which 7,000 have been sold in this city alone.
Their reputation is world-wide, and every fa
mily not yet supplied with one of these instru
ments should go to 701 Chestnut street, and
order one at once.
How TO DECIDE THE QUESTION.—There being
a multiplicity of Sewing Machines offered to
the public, each one claimed to be the best;
and as the / 1 39S.13£9.1.131Akkk,irtractvfse all Con
ftrixiiiliaing purchasing to give them all a
thorough test before doing so. This may be
easily done by taking samples of different
kinds of work to the various Offices to be done.
This test the Florence, sold at No. 630 Chest
nut street, invites, and the preference is al
ways in its favor when a comparison with
others is made. For beauty of work, and the
wide range of work which it aCCO/nplisheS, as
well as the ease of operation and economy of
thread, together with its elegant appearance
as an article of household furniture, the Flo
rence has no rival, and is the only perfect ma
chine . 6 warranted to give entire satisfaction
or the money refunded." On account of the
many advantages and improvements it pos
sesses over all others, we feel sure that it
merits the appellation of the Best Family
Sewing Machine in the world, and that we but
speak the minds of huntlreas of out flint fami
lies in Philadelphia, who have these machines
in practical use, in endorsing the Florence,
sold at No. 00 Chestnut street.

OBITUARY
It Is painful at any time to record the death of one
to whom we have clung with fendoeSS 01% "HP'S
tempestuous waves," but when the victim' is a
friend who, amid sickness and sorrow, has steered
our frail barges in safety to the boundless shores of
hope, the poignancy of our grlells greatly Increased.
Such was the late Dr. C. FRON EFLELD. As a man
Ile combined a dignity that ennobles the believe
!mike of a Chtidtlan and the simplicity of a child.
In the whirl and excitement Of th s. busy World the
memory of all individual, however meritorious, soon
flutes away, and is lost forever, save in the hearts of
a favored few, who have lieu the privilege of Wit
nessing his inner life. Still the integrity and capa
city oalr. FRONEFIELD were so remarkable, that
jmis death bus created a void in the business circle hi
which he moved, *Well time alone can Mb How
utterly inadequate are wordatO express the aligithill
that pervades time hearl a of those et whose conch Ile
so oft en ministered, with all the courtesy of a gen
tleman awl the science of a physician, assuaging the
Pain of body and of mind, and keeping alive, if pos
sible, the sllghlest yark of hope. But e has h de
parted, and weu Isease shall hereafter enter our
so often cheered by MS presence, how salt 4
iy shall we mourn the absence of ourmneh love
friend. Within the sacred precincts of his own
loved home we do not presume to enter. There
sorrow reigns supreme. 'The mourners will not be
comforted, because he is not. Time, the great
soother, must he left to do Ids perfect Work; and we
tumidly bunt that our Heavenly Father, who temps
ers the wind to the shorn lamb, will shield theta,
mold all the storms of lite,,and grant them all tile
consolation which they so Much need. •
Loved friend, farewell: Tiedays of grle I . are o'er;
Lire Ivithi its, cares, its sorrows, and its pains,
Caninterrupt thyJnippiness no more;
Amid the glories of the Heavenly plains,
In perfect, peitee thy happy spirit reigns.
Still lingering here—alas i so far from thee.
Still bound to tills low sphere by earthly tiet,
We watt the summons that shall set us free;
How would our drooping spirits rise
Tondn thee in thy bliss above the SWAB.
