outbrt,ak of sotrie kind must occur before

Of his wanderings little is Known. It is

Tug FIRST DA - 1( OF CONGKE%S.
The hear.t sickens at, the recital of-what
was said and•done by the Radical mem
hers of Congress within forty-eight hours
after they had assembled at the .National
Capital. There was a time when respect
was paid to the President of the :United
States by virtue of his office, no matter
how unpopular ho might be ; but that day
is p‘ped. To day. he seems to be the
mast popular man who can say the hard
est things of the Executive. As an illus
tration.of the peculiar code of ethics and
morals which prevails among the Radical
Congressmen, take the first day's proceed
ings in the House of Representatives as
they come to ns reported.in the columns_
of the Radical organs. the Herald, 'Mune,
and Itynai. in the House, at 1:40 - r. Y.
says the 'Mune, Thaddeus Stevens moved •
that the House adjourn, "without waiting
for the President's Message." Upon this
insolfbeing offered to the National Kit.-
cutive, Mr. Randall, of Penn sylvania, re
quested the speaker to state whether it
"was not usual ort' the first day of the see
"got: to wait for the President's Mes
''sag:e ?" - The Speaker, Colfax. of Indiana,
refused to answer this question, which he
Could answer only in the affirmative. Be
fore the House could be forced to act upon
Steven's indecent motion, however, the
President's Message arrived. The Speak
er, not wholly lost to fhe proprieties of his
\ \station, laid it before .the !Tome. Stevens
egaln "moved to postpone the reading till
tognorrow," and, this motion being lost,
another Radical, Eggleston, of Ohio, am
ed for "a recess tilt 3 FOC" This was also
lost ; and the Clerk proceeded to read the
message of the Chief Magistrate of the na
tion to the nation's Legislature. Before
he had got through, Stevens rose and said,
"Our friends"' (meaning a party or 'dele
gation assembled to welcome the . Radical
members to Washington,) "Our friends,
"are now on the7Eastern Portico expect
"ing titt ; it will take some time longer to
"finish the Message ; I propose we post
,"pone its further reading till Jamorroiv
On a division being had upon this prope-
ARLO% which for sheer indecency and dis.
regard of every propriety of. public-life is 1
simply unpitralleled in our legislative an
nals, it was found that sixty Radical mem
bers had voted for postponing the perfor
ance of an important public duty to a
partisan junketing and jollification on
the steps of the Capitol. Some resolute
member upon this demanded the yeas and
gays ; and though this peremptory de
mand reversed the action of the House,
It was only done by a majority . of one vote,
no less than sixty-four Radical members
shamelessly recording themselves in favor
of the scandalous proposition.
The Message being read the House ad
iourned. The 'Radicals then rushed into,
the arms of their friends "on the Eastern
Portico." Who these "friends" were, for
the sake of meeting whom Mr. Stevens
and sixty thre s others of his fellow Radi
cals'were so ready to sacrifice the dignity
of the nation; let' the Radical limes tell
us! They consisted, says the 'Ames, "of a
baker's dozen of Southern Unionists," and
of "several thousand freeliwomen and
"children, who were only held in check
"by, the presence of a considerable police
"force, while their brethren, representing
"all the Southern States except South
"Carolina, were evidently astonished to
"find themselves with such a •.contempti.
''bly small squad of white sympathizers."
To this highly intelligent audience sun
dry leading Radicals, including Speaker
Colfax, Senator Yates, of Illinois, and
Judge Kelley, of Pennsylvania, held
forth, denouncing the President, praising
the valor of. the negro race, and predict
ing a new civil war.
In the evening came the "banquet" from
which the negroes, whom Mr. Stevens
had been so eager to see at noon' that he
could not wait to heir the Presidentia
Message read. .were carefully excluded.
At thisbahquet Mr. Stevens, after a bless
ing asked by Hiram Walbridge, thanked
God for the "pure patriotism" of his own
party in Congress, denounced the Presi
dent as a would-be king, and declared
that the "war of blood was not over." He
threatened to turn; hose the "Southern
freedmen under the command of. Sheri
dan" upon the Nortbisneered at G-neral
Grant and Farragut, and menaced the
President with being sent "to his head
"on a lapboard. goose" in "one of the ern
"brastires o! F,ortress Monroe." The Tri
bune discreetly passed over in, silence the_
performance which attended and folloived
this harangue ; the Herald contents itself
with stating that "many of the ,speaker's
"remarks were inaudible atlien . paces
"from him," and the Times comprofiiisils
by asserting that 'the banquet was a par
tial success, but lacked system." How it
same to "I"ok cyarom" appears more clear
ly from the following sketch git•en by
the Tiptes of an incident which occurred
at a comparatively early hour of the-even
ing:
During Steven's speech a member of
the Baltimore Cou'ricil--wed:

TUE RADICAL. PROGRAMME'.
The caucus of the Radical- members of

First. T 6 pass a bill regUlating the or

of the alleged-murderers of the Union

This programme is comprehensive. The
;point anneeat is the continuance of the
radical minority in power. Every other
consideration is igifored. But one other l
stop remains to be revealed, and the rev-'
elstion wilrbe made in good time. That!
is to aiaque forever all the powers of , a

AVM' THAPC 1$ DULL.
Just now there is no little excitement
in all business circles. Ttie •commercial
world•isi petrified, and capital is nervously
timid. The great Centres are filled with
goods•for which there is no r i le. Menu
facturers, just at. the moment when they
were making the heaviest tuna, and ex
pending most money in improveinents,
find goods unsaleable and the marks' un
settled. If, in the good old days of specie
payments and an undivided * country, we
were liable to panics and to seasOns•pf
depression from over-production, how
could it be expected that we should es.
cape when production was stimulated to
the greatest degree, and the market
circumscribed one third.
.btot only is the South shut out as a mar;
ket, but it is rendered uncertain-. when it
will return as a paying customer. to onr
marts of trade. So long as the chief effort
of the dominant political party is to de.
grade the whites of that whole section and
to keep them in an unsettled and subor
dinate position, so lohg wilt we derive but
little commercial advantage from what
was fortherly a great element in our finan
cial prosperity. Production in the South
is crippled, and one-third of our - former
outlet for our manufacturers Is stint up.
To-day the North needs the South more
than the South needs the North. Had,
the South been admitted early at the last
imam of Congr ess the, depression that
now exists in our business circles would
not have been felt, and business men
would not have' been standing behind
their counters trembling with nervous
dread . of a coining financial crash. If Ne
mesis does not' always. take the precise
shape we might have anticipated, none
the less is the penalty 'exacted. and that
in lull.
The commercial world must now await
the action of the political world. A few
more months 'of the present uncertainty
will render a year of disaster certain.
There will be no safety in trade, no err::
tainty for manufacturers, nb stability for'
any sort of business, until the South is
permanently rehabilitated iu all her po
litical rights.
Business men may diffir as to tho man
ner or basis of settling the Southern quer.
tion ; but that it must be speedily settled
no one but a political charlatan will deny.
The longer the demagogues at Washing
ton defer the settlement of existing diffi
culties by denying the So'uth full com-
amnion on the basis of Constitutions
equality. the greater will be, the injury
inflicted upon the commercial and manu
facturing interests of the whole country,
and especially those of the North.
- The truth of this will soon be forced up•
on the people by a - bitter experience,, un
less there should be a change in the tem=
per of the , Rsdical leaders in Congress, who
at the present seem willing to sacrifice
the prosperity of the country to maintain
the sway of the minority over the majority.

AN AUTIIOIIITATITE ANNOUNCEMENT,
"We know personally every prominent,
member of Congress," writes Mr. Tilton
in the Independent, "and we know
:the leaders do not mean to admit
:the unadmitted States on the mere adop
tion of tire amendment. diorecver, we
know personally the leading Radicals of
the Republican party outside of Congress,
and we know that they have no intention
of milking the amendment the final meas
ure bf admission. To say, therefore, as
the National Committee say, that on con
dition of adopting the amendment, as
Tennessee adoyled ii, 'the door stands in
vitingly open' for the ten other States, is
to make a promise to the ear to break it
to the hope. *. * Theselltates are to be
admitted on no . condition. short of-the

foolish., Nearly every week that paper con

for a jar or two longer, it will be an act of

A The Grover & Raker, decidedly.

f - r th , s opinion.
A. I thi• k thistiteh Is a etrooger 'tit& ,thareilist of
any other machine I bare sees used; unl tt seem. to me
much more simple in Its.mstasgemont than o'her ma
chines. One greet advantage 1' the ...se with abler the
seem is ripred, when necessary to do eo; soda think
the work of an experienc -gen on a Grover & Baker
machtne is better than w'rk of such persein on a••
other. It r.quiree more' skill to work other machines
than the Grover k Baker.
Mn Bee. Buell says she prefers the hover & Bak. r

Mr,. Dr. Watt saes— -
'1 have had unveil vein experience with a Grover &

Its thief merit Is that it makes a strong elastic stitch:
it la very essl y kept in rder and worked without lunch

of the Grover & Baker machines,
Second. That they are netliable to get r out of repair.
Third That a greater •.ratv of work can be done
