How it's to be Done.'
Tlie New l'ork limes," which assumes to
l the organ of President Johnson, givea
the following illustration of "My Policy,"
in tlie event of a failure of the Republican
vartT to elect 1 one hundred and twenty-one
Weui bers of the next House of Represcnta-
' t'ive3: .
By law Congress thus consists of two hun-
urci and forty-one members, and by law, al
to a majority of the whole number, or one
f u'ndredand twenty-one members, consti
tute a quorum. Suppose : that members
e'ected trcm the Southern States should
wi-ctiu December, 1867, and be enough,
alJed to Northern members who believe in
w.tt with them, to constitute a quorum ;
I va suppose the Northern members who do
I r ot Wieve the South entitled to representa-
j.Vn. nd who would not meet with them,
jJijuld meet oy tnemseives, constituting less
limn a quorum of the whole number. The
J 'resiJent will be under the necessity of re
vgniziag one or the other of these bodies
the ralid, constitutional House of Repre
sentatives. He must send his message to
tlie one or the other. He must treat one or
tlie other as a branch of Congress, clothed
with the power of mating laws, and the
u lier as having no such authority. And
under the circumstances assumed, there
tan le very little doubt, in view of his known
t'l-inions on the subject, that President John
s w will recognize the numerical quorum
the body which contains a majority of all
the members as the only body authorized
bvthe Constitution to make laws for the
1 nited States. He will probably send bis
meksage to that body ; he will sign the bill
they pass, if concurred in by the Senate.aiu
be will not recognize the acts of the other
a valid in any respect. The Senate, on the
rontrarv. Will recoebize a majority of mem
i-ers from all the States hut ten, even if they
ara a. Uinoritv of the whole, as the real Con-
trreaH, ail as clothed with all the powers of
legislation.
If any additional inceutive is needed for
nergy and activity in the present political
canvass, this statement would furnish it
The House, at the time of its adjournment,
consisted of 147 Republicans and 45 Demo
rats. If fifry members from the rebel
States, were added to the latterit would lea"ve
them ii a minority of fifty-two. To over
come this preponderance aud thus gain a
pretext for revolutionizing the Govertuncnt
was the- chief object of the damaging am
disgraceful Presidential pilgrimage, and of
the prostitution of the public patronage.
But tl people have only to continue their
steadfast and enthusiastic support of the ac
lion of Cjnriess to crush this scheme. If
they stand firm by their loyal colors they
will utterly destroy the shameless excuse
given by the Times tor a usurpation of leg
iIativo functions. Maine has resented the
Copperhead calculation of a gain of two
Members within her borders by overwhelm
ing majorities to all her Republican candi
dates, and Pennsylvania will not be slow to
imitate thW noble example. Her citizens
will never consent to assist, directly or indi
rectly, in setting up legally or illegally a reb-
Congress to rule over the United States.
The Mileage Question. President
Johsoa stated that the radical C ingress in
creased its own pay $2,000 a head, but re
fused to give a proper bounty to soldiers.
Th. President is in error in his statement,
as it implies that a vast sum was added to
the perquisites of the members by the bill.
This was not the case. The mileage was
reduced to one-half of its present amount,
and the sums thus received were divided
among the members more equally. It used
to be that the Western members, many of
whom were mere nullities in the House,
would rccieve $12,000 mileage, while East
era members would get $200, and do all the
work. To equalize f he pay, an increase of
regular salary and a reduction of mileage
were agreed upon. So far as the real ad
ditional outlay is concerned, the' sum is too
insignificant to be fought over.
- A Reminiscence. On the 19th of Sep
tember, 1864, Hon. Henry Stanbery, pres
ent Attorney-General, delivered a speech
in Ohio in' la vor of Lincoln and Johnson,
anbV which was published in the Cincinnati
Gazette of that 'date, in which he declared
that Rebels- had uo right to vote, even if
they came repentant and in sincere submis
. akm to the Jaws.1. He Turthct 'ski&" that It
would be safe test through all time to ask,'
before you Vote, . " Which party kouM Jef
ferson Datii fator he had a ballot f ami
whichever he toouldtet all loyal men oppose."
The Judge was right, and we ask that ques
tion now!

But here our devotion renew.

Chorus When kept by the Brave, eto.
The Issue Plainly Stated.
The Conservatives labor to create the im
pression that the radicals are oj posed to the
speedy restoration of the revolted States to
their old places in the circle of the Union.
President Johnson, Secretary Seward and a
good many newspapers expend a vast amount
of turgid rhetoric to this end. The facts so
obviously point in the opposite direction
that we are constrained to conclude those
distinguished gentlemen, and those news
papers, do not believe what they affirm on
this head.
Congress has laid down the conditions on
which it will consent to the restoration of
the rebel States. These conditions are em
bodied in a formal proposition to amend the
Constitution in certain particulars, iNotcne
of these conclusions look to the exclusion, for
any ieriod, long or short, of the revolted
States, from full and equal participation
with the loyal States in the control of the
government. The understanding is, that so
soon as any one of the eleven seceding States
shall ratify this amendment its delegations
sliall be promptly admitted to seats m the
Senate and Floue of Representatives. One
of the eleven, Tennessee, did ratify this
amendment, and its Senators andlloprcsen
tanves were promptly sworn in. io reason
exists for believing the same rule will not be
applied to tlu remaining ten. These ten
States, or anjT of them, can take places in
Congress at the openinar of the next session.
if they desire to, by foliowinsr the example
ot lennessee: and tins is certainly as early
as the adoption of the President's Policy
can possibly get them in.
1 ne actual point in controversy, then, is
not the precise or relative time when the
other States shall be restored, but the con
ditions enacted as precedent to restoration.
Congress insists on the incorporation of
tour new stipulations into the organic law
I hat all persons born or naturalized in
the United States, and subject to the juris
diction thereof, shall be accounted citizens,
and that no State shall make laws to abridge
the privilegfs or immunities of any citizens
in respect to life, liberty or property. 2.
That representation shall be apportioned,
not according to population, but acc ording
to the number of voters. 3. That no per
son shall be a meniler of either branch of
Congress, or a Presidential elector, or hold
any office w hatever under the United States,'
who had previously, as any office-holder un
der the general or any state government,
taken an oath to bear true al!eiriance to the
Union, and" then violated it, by embarking
in the rebellion : and, 4. That the public
debt of the United States, including debts
incurred tor services in suppressing the re
bellion, shall not be impaired: and that
neither the United States nor any one of the
States shall assume to pay any debt contract
ed in support of the rebellion, or to indemni
ty tor the Joss ot slaves emancipated.
The President's Policy declares each and
all of these stipulations to be wrong, and
maintains that the revolted States shall
conift back without conditions, and without
any changes whatever in the Constitution
designed to operate as guarantees- for the
future.
When, therefore, the President, or any
body else, charges tuat Congress or the Re
publican party are disunionists, in any sense
as implying opposition to the complete and
prompt restoration of all the States, and to
equal authority, he or thev deliberately fal
sify. The quest on at issue is shall the U-
nion be restored? All are agreed on that
head. The only open ouestion relates to
conditions. On that question the President
has gone snuarely over to the rebels and
sympathises with them, and declares that no.
condition whatever shall be prescribed or
euiorcea. 1 he Republicans, having fought
a War to a 8acceSsful'conelusion,are resolv
ed that such terms shall be assented to as
will guard against trouble in time to come,
as-will Ttotect the just rights of the emanci
pated bondmen, and secure beyond all per

Correspondence of the ''Journal."
Jorkest Cnr, N. T.,Sept 8th, 1SGG.
Dear Row : To-day finds me still alive
ami kicking", and heartily wishing the same
luck to all hands and the cook, of the Journal.
We have had splendid growing weather
here for the last five or six weeks past, and
the com i maturing' finely, as well as all
1 n. t r
onier summer crops. j.ne tarmers are now
in the midst of threshing time, and highly
rejoiced at the excellent vicld in wheat, rve
ana oats, the yield ol which is at about the
, . . . .-. ----- j
following average: of wheat, 25 bushels
per acre ; rye, 34 bushels, and oats 60 bush
e!s per acre. Ihe grain market is tending
uowuward; prices at U ma ha being as lol
1 . hf- ,.
lows: wrcat ?i iu : rye, So cents, and
oats 35 ( 40 cts ; dry goods, groceries, &2.
fluctuating with the eastern markets.
Ihe health of the people is generally
good, with the exception of a few cases of
fever and ague.
For the information of many inquirers, I
will here give a statement of the average
cost of farming (wheat, rye and oats) per
acre :
1-tenth day sowing seed, labor and board.at
$2 00 per day 0 20
l-third day harrowing, wages of team,
at $4 00 per day, 1 33
neaping one acre, 1 00
One day binding and shocking, wages
and board, 2 50
1-fifth day stacking, four hands and
team, 2 50
Cost of threshing 25 bushels, 3 75
Total cost, $11 23
It must here be remembered that the
present high wages for h'bor is reckoned in
this estimati, and is therefore subject to
fluctuate with the changes of wages and
board cost. It must also be remembered
that the general rule of sowinsr on corn
stubbles, and harrowing in without plowing.
is also an item subject to changes, while the
cost ot seed must change with its kind and
and quantity, and must be added to the
above cost.
Of wheat we generally sow from one and
a hair to two bushels per acre ; ot rye from
two to two and a half, and of oats about
three bushels per acre.
Now, to reckon the cost of seed at $ 1 2.
per bushel for wheat, $1 00 per bushel for
rye and 4U cts. tor oats, and sowing about
the average amount per acre, would give a
net proht on land rent ot about $15 65 per
acre tor wheat, lo 40 tor rye, and ?9 oo
for oats. At a glance we can easily see that
ot the above grains, wheat pays the best;
while it pa3rs well enough to raise any one
of these cereals.
In my next I will endeavor to give the
estimated cost and profit of corn and vege
tables, as correctly as possible, and if any
one desires any further information con
cerning this country, or lands &c, I will be
happy to answer, either by private letter or
through the columns of the Journal, if the
editor will be kind enough to publish
communications on subjects so discussed.
in order that the readers ot the Journal
may conceive the speed with which we do
up business in this "Land of Promise," I
will describe a threshing match which came
oS'on the farm occupied by Mr. John Weeth,
and in the tenure of Messrs. M. Y. Rishel
and Win. II. Booze, formerly of Clearfield
county, 1'a. Circumstances were as follows :
Ihe two parties disagreed with resrard to
the hire of threshing machines, and the
Landlord, (Mr. Weeth) hired the machine,
or separator owned by a Mr. Miller, (a ten-
horse power separator,) and the tenants
hired an eight-horse power separator owned
by Messrs. Melier & Langdon, of Forrest
City. The two separators and crews met
about the same time, aud after a few sharp
words, both crews souatted in the same
yard and began to slyll out the grain. The
ten-l orse separator shelled out 448 bushels
in 14 hours and' the eisht-horso separator
277 bushels in 9 hours.
Yours, &c, Pilgrim.
Fall of a Great Max. Coming down
Chestnut street, St. Louis, one day last
week, writes a correspondent, I was struck
by the appearance of an old man rast sixty'.
who wore a threadbare coat, shiny with con
stant wear, and whose hat was bruised and
seeay. uis nead bent toward the earth,
and his walk was a tottering shuffle, the ef
fect ot whiskey and old aire. He reeled
from one side of the pavement to the other.
and at last, brought up against a lamp post
on the corner, when a young looking loaier
coming along saluted him with llulloa J mi 1
Come and take a drink?" The old man's
eyes brightened, and arm-in-arm, he saun
tered along to the nearest groggery with his
compauion. rive years ago that man was
James Green, United States Senator from
Missouri, and in the days of the Kansas and
Ijecompton matters he was, next to fete
phen A. Douglas, the ablest debater in
Congress. But the war broke out, Mr.
ureen was sent to the rebel Uongress, soon
lost his property, bis position ana his char
acter, and now he is a poor drunkard, and
earns baiely a pittance of a living as a cala
boose shyster.

Capitolin favorof Southern loyalists'; against
the war ; against sustaining it,' and in favor
of peace when peace meant success to the
