PITTSBURGH:
THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 31, 1864
THE AMNESTY PROCLAMA-
PION
The Amnesty Proclamation, issued by
President Luicotx some time since, by
which he expected to reconstruct the
Southern States, through the votes of
one-tenth of the population of each,
does not work so smoothly as his Ex
cellency desired and anticipated. He
has, accordingly, issued a codicil, ex
plaining his proclamation, which is but
an additional indication, upon his part,
of an intense anxiety to remain four
„years longer in the White House. Like
the P. S. of a lady's love letter, this cod
icil oftoni funny President is, by odds,
the sweetest of the whole performance.
Fearing that the battered and ragged
.rebels might, in large numbers, take the
oath prescribed by the President, and
then control the elections, our honest
chief magistrate has thought of another
do ige, by which he is certain to
carry the States in question.
Ho now explains that his proc
lamation refers only to those dis
tricts and sections which are held by
our arms. From this it will be seen
that amid the cares and trials of his po
sition and the time occupied by him in
telling funny stories and writing dramat
ic criticisms to Mr. HACKETT, Mr. LeN
cou finds time to write proclamations
and codicils, secure
his
modestly intended to secure
his own re-election.
The orighial amnesty proclamation,
containing the one-tenth dodge—so
neatly arranged for the ret urn of Louis
iana and Arkitnaas to the Union—con
tained the following:
This proclamation is intended to present I ,
fhe people of the States wherein the 7.11107111 i st—
thoritsr has been suspended, and loyal State Crol -
ernments have been subverted, a mode in and by
which the national authority and loyal state
Governments may be re-established within said
Mates.
The coJicil, issued by the President
On Monday last, repeals all this, and
.confines his "one-tenth" suffrage, in the
'rebellions States, to districts which have
been subdued or conquered by our ar
mies. If there be no repentant rebels in
those conquered localities, willing to
-take the oath and vote the Aboli
tion ticket, sufficient numbers can
be found in regimentals to secure the
electoral votes of each conquered Com
monwealth, to continue our present
chief magistrate at the head of our gov
ernment. This is what that functionary
and his followers style reconstructing
the Union !
This reconstruction has already been
done in Louisiana, where an original
rebel has been elected by military coer
cion; it has also been successfully inaug
urated in Arkansas, Where an individu
al-bearing the euphonious name of Mr n
through the aid of proclamations
and bayonets, now graces the guberna
torial chair of that State. lifunryry, by
the way, is a strange name for an Aboli
tion governor. The land of his ances
tors, in the days of WILLIAM and CROM
WELL, suffered all the pangs of ruthless
invasion• and confiscation; has he be
come so degenerate as to be the tool of
those who are seeking to inflict similar
outrages upon the people of Arkansas
Shame on MURPHY . ; he is no true Hiber
nian, but one of that class who delight in
being denominated Irish Yankees, or
as our felicitous President would, more
politely, observe, "Americans of Irish
descent." We suspect this MURPTIY for
being a sort of Sin PATRICK CI'PLENoro,
the Irish Ambassador, who succeeded
in outwitting his contemporaries at the
court ofSpain; and who also continued
to make something handsome in every
little-turn which court intrigue created.
With the quick instinct of his country
men, aided by their national propensity
for.praetical joking, we infer that Mun
n:fir has succeeded in 'bamboozling the
Administration even as OTLEROPO did
his rivals at the Spanish Court. If so,
we ocrald embrace him, provided he
treats the poor people of Arkansas with
true Hibernian generosity. Let him
kick the leading rebels wherever he may
find 'them, but on the contrary, show
mercy and kindness tothe repentent thou
sandg of the rank and file. In short, let
Goternor - littrurnv, of Arkansas, temper
justißs with mercy, and he may yet reach
the;• Presidency of the United States.
VALOR AND GRRFINBACKB.
Because we have no confidence in Mr.
Citast's sysfinV, the Gazette
appears to doubt our valor. What has
our prowess and patriotism to do with
Camila , and his shinplaster system, we
shot& like to know ? The fact of ex
posing•that huge humbug, only adds to
oar financial reputation, instead of de
tracting from our established character
for pluck and gallantry. Werethe Gazette
gentlemen possessed of one-tenth of the
genuine stuff we are, they would not
hang , about in the "Sixteenth Pennsyl.
vania Reserves," but would seek some
place in a negro regiment and there
prove thpir sincerity by the performance
of heroic deeds. Were we, like them, in
favor' oUttegro equality. negro suffrage
and reigcegenation generally, we would
join, a colored brigadb, and do deeds
which would amaze even WENDELL
PETIAIPS, himself. But, there is no use in
trying to spur Abolitionists into that
army; they haven't got the staff for sol
diem,

WHO ARE THE SOLDIERS'
FRIENDS ?
When the Army Appropriation Bill
was before the nouse, on the 21st inst.,
a colloquy took place on an amendment
offered by Hon. solui L. De.xy'soN, pro
viding for the payment of the, soldiers
gold and silver or its equivA t ent
Value
in paper. It will be obi}eivbit*ith what
assiduity Mr. STEvitNs*td the Chair
man ( 111 r. W u.soNencieavored to place
themselves on record as opposed to any
thing that could Le for the benefit of the
private soldier. In the bill in question
is an appropriation of $1,500,000
for the relief and medical treat
ment of "contrabands," which the Dem
ocratic members desired to extend to
white refugees also, but the proposition
was met by determined opposition anu 1
defeated. An amendment offered by
Mr. Hot-MAN, appropriating $150,000 for
enabl lig "the wives and friends of sick
and wounded soldiers to visit the same,
where unable to incur the expense,"
was also, on the most frivolous pretexts,
opposed and decided out of order by the
Republican side. The following is the
colloquy alluded to above ; read it and
determine which of the two great par
tie. and the leaders thereof are the true
friends of the suffering soldier :
Mr. DAWSON—I move to amend 1n•
inserting on page 3, after line forty, the
following :
And that the same be paid in gold or its el - Intl - -
Mont : Provided, That the relative value of any
paper currency tendered shall be ascertained by
the Secretary of the Treasury and his certirlcate
shall be conclusive es ideuce thereof, if date!
thirty days bebire payment is made.
Mr. STEVENS—That is going hack it
the bill, and I object.
The CHAIRMAN—The Chair sustain=
the point of order. Clauses in appro
priation bills are regarded the same as
sections of other bills, and the clause to
which the amendment is proposed lies
been passed.
Mr. DAWSON-1 must say I cannot
understand the principle upon which
the amendment is ruled out of order.
The CHAIRM AN—Does the gentleman
appeal from the decision?
Mr. DA wsos—No. sir; but I Would
be glad t have the ('hair hear what I
have to say.
The CiinititiAN—The Chair decides
the amendment out of order.
Mr. Daw , oN—Upon what principle
The CHAIRMAN—That paragraphs in
appropriation bills are regarded ai sec
tons are in other hills, and we hay
pa , sed the clause the gentlemen prov,
ses to aniend
Mr. DAws,,N—Then I offer it a. , al
amendment to ecme in at the end or tto
Mr. STEvENs—Another point of order
either the law now allows us to pa
soldiers in gold, or the amendment
creates a new law. This hitter would
not he in order.
Mr. DAWi , ON--In ans‘‘er I would 'tic
that the present law do,s not specify the
kind or money that shall be paid.
Mr. STEvENti—Then the amendment
creates a law providine payment in a
certain way.
Mr. DANN sox—Certainly
The Cuathmfix----Tlic ('hair su-ita;ns
the point of order.
Mr. Daia , o;,—ltoes the I hair decide
that it is nut in order, for the reason that
it prescribes a particular mode in which
soldiers shall be paid!
The Cit.tii i,s .—}3r cause it pro
poses to make a new law.
Mr. DAWSOS-1. appeal from the de.
eis:on of the Chair; and upon that ques
tion I have the rieht to he heard It
does not change the existing law. The
law fixing the compensation of solders
does not prescribe the currency in which
they shall be paid. Gold and silver are
the only let:al currency known to the
('onstitution.
Mr. STEve.Ns—lf 1 understand the
gentleman, there is no law now f“r—
The CHAIRMAN—No debate is in
order. The question is, — shall the decis
ion of the Chair stand es the judgment
of the committeer
The question Wile put; and it was de
cided in the affirmative.
So the decision of the Chair was sus.
Mr. DAWSON-1 move to amend by
adding at the end of the bill the follow
ing:
And erot ided further, That the first payment
made after the passage of this net shall he at the
rate of twenty dollars per month tot pm ate
soldiers.
Mr. STEVENS--I make a point of or
der. His amendment amounts to not h
ing, and he is offering frivolous amend
ments.
The CHAIRMAN—The Chair sustains
the point of order. The amendment
proposes to change an existng law.
Mr. STEN - FNS-1 move that the com
mittee rise and report the, bill.
The motion was agreed to
Woman's Work.—The Woman's
Protective Union, No. 4 Chambers street,
New York, has I . etri recently brought
before the public at the Cooper Institute.
It seems all sorts of needlework is worse
paid than any other kind of work, and
far worse now than used to be the case
before the present war began, relatively.
Now that cotton is three times the price
per spool it used to be, they have to fur.
nish Oieir own thread ; and having to
buy it retail, where the proprietor used
to buy it wholesale, we suppose, makes
the real loss of this method still greater
to the poor. Five cents and a half are
paid a woman with three children for
making drawers, by which perhaps two
pairs can be made by working all day
and most of the night. Twelve and a
half cents is paid for ten hours' work,
the woman furnishing linr own thread.
It is enough to make the blood turn cold.
Yet there are 30,000 women, in the prime
of life, sewing away thus, making army
clothing and navy clothing. Vine shirts
for the gentleman and fine linen for the
lady are made at rates a little higher than
this, perhaps thirty-two cents for more
than twelve I, ,, urs' w.rk. The average
earnings of all the needle women of New
York is not more than fifty cents per
day, and ninny of these have been most
respectably educated and brought up,
only to suffer the more acutely and be
less able to push and force their way
against opposition and oppression. The
deterioration of the currency daily makes
this matter worse. What are the causes
of this state of things, and what the
remedies Do we live in the nineteenth
century, and claim to he a christian
people' Nor can we of Pittsburgh lay
the flattering unction to our souls that
we pay better prices than those paid in
New York. Stich is not the case.
Think of it—hrelre and rt half ecru

TILE NEW YORK Evening Post and
other radical Abolition journals are
urging upon the National Republican
Executive Commitee to reconsider its
call for the Baltimore Convention to
meet on the 7th of June, and order it
for September. In case the Committee
can not he got together again, the Post
suggests that the "loyal members ,of
Congress" devise some mode by which
the Convention may be postponed. The
idea would seem to be that the spring

Grover 4- Baker Sete, ng Mods 11c I.olllpany--11-en
tlemen It gives me great pleasure to add my
testimony to the unrivalled excellencies of Qrn
%er a. Baker's Sewing Machine. It in, in my
opinion, by far the most valuable of any I have
tried. The thorough operation of it in most easy
and simple, and its unobtrusive and quiet move
ments are very grateful to a weary head. The
work when done in wonderful in its strength.
More than two-thirds of all the sewing done in
my family for the last two years has been done
ri the 1./rover & Baker Sewing Mantas., and I
have never had a garment to rip or need mend
ing, except those rents which frolicsome boys
will make in whole cloth, and for them your
machine has, I suppose, no remedy but a patch
or a darn.
The seam on the underside, sometimes repre
sented as an objection to Grover h Baker's Ma
chine, is, 1 think, only the evidence of an un
skillful operation.
Honestly appreciating the excellencies of your
machine as fully as I have stated, I could give
it no higher praise than the fact that when my
only daughter married I gave her this long-tried
household friend, depriving myself of its services
to lighten her first assumption of domestic duties.
I can manage my machine comfortably, but
my daughter was never willing to use any but
Grover h Baker's.

I hope to be able soon to send you a well de
served rreo limendation from my husband, mean
while If any part of this ivill be of any value, it
at your disposal. Yours, gratefully,

The Advertising Department will be printed
in Ft beautiful and attractive form, in a style al
loyellicr new, rendering business cards unusually
attractive.
As in previous years, the publisher will distri
bute, at his own expense, free copies to from one
to two hundred Hotels in the
VARIOCS WESTERN and EASTERN CITIES and
Rendering, from the peculiarly attractive style
in which the advertisements will be printed,
very soficeerb/e, over a wide extent of country,
the cards of such of our business men as may be
inserted.
The canvassers will commence taking the
names of residents on PN DAY, April, the 4th,
and the publisher would here request that the
inmates of each household, who may answer the
enquiries of a canvasser, will furnish the name
of every male adult resident with the family,
also of any widow and of any woman carrying
on business on her own account, to the end that
the Dircetury may when compiled be as perfect
as possible.
I...aeh canvasser will be provided with a book
on ~ hid, to take orders tor copies or advertlae
ments.
Conscious that each succeeding year he has
endeavored to render the Directory not only
useful to the citizens, but more creditable to the
city and advantageous as a medium of advertis
ing, the publisher would ask that a liberalka
trona& both of subscriptions for copies and of
Advertising be extended this year to the publica
