"Traitori must be punished and treason
made odious." So spoke Andrew Johnson
when the assassin's hand struck down - the
noble Lincoln, and placed him in the Presi
dential Chair. And every loyal heart re
sponded AMen ! How has that pledge been
kept? Have traitors been punished? Is
treason wade odious? Is not a premium of
fered for treason? Jeff Davis is in prison—
well fed, and takes his daily promenade with
the commander at Fort Monr)e. No doubt,
that officer feels himself honored. The arch.
traitors—the wholesale murderers—the head
and front of the Rebellion, stalk abroad,
free. untrammeled, defiant, through our land,
east, west, north or south, and seem to pride
in the leading part they took in the late hor
rid drama of blood! The people of the
South fete and applaud them—elect them to
office, and send them with hands yet reeking
with fratricidal blood to insult a loyal Con
gress with demands for admission! South
ern presses spit forth treason as defiantly as
_ever, and Gen. Early, the _man who ordered
the burning of Chambersburg, goes into a
newspaper discussion with Gen.'Sheridan on
the merits of the campaign in the Simeon
doahl Conciliation ,
that base and cowardly
word, when applied to dealings with trai
tors, has come sadly into vogue again, and
reminds us too vividly of the pusillanimous
conduct of our rulers in the beginning of 'el,
when treason was boldly proclaimed in the
House and Senate, and in the very face of
James Buchanan. That ruler was consign•
ed to infamy for allowing Floyd, Hunter,
Mason, Wigfall and Jeff Davis to leave their
official positions with treason on their lips,
without being arrested and tried as — ttuitors
—incipient traitors they were then—full
grOwn, blood-red dyed and accursed traitors
they are now. They have struck deadly
blows at the Nation's heart for four years,
and slain tens of thousands of her noblest
sons. Shall they go scut free, and we in our
Unaccountable- lethargy • acquiesce ,In this
worse than judicial' blindness, without rais
ing a voice in protest? .
lint they tell us they have, now submitted
and are.anxious to return to their allegiance. ;
When did they submit? When
. the last
remnant of their disheartened , ' detneraliz'ed
ruffians refused, utterly refused, to shed any
more loyal blood. How many of them will
own that they were wrong? Bow many are
truly repentant? What prevents Lee, John.

'Tie vain all this repining,
The past, is nought to me;
The present sun is shining,
And brighter yet may be.
The land marks still I'll Follow
Where braver feet have trod,
Though Friendship's smile be hollow
And sorrow bears ber rod..
The heart must brave each sorrow.
Win back the smiles of Hope;
And from.the Past not borrow,
But with the Present cope:
And thoie who now are watching
Our passage o'er the sea,
Some hope will still be catching
If braielf on 'webs we.
To day the sun in darknesi
Behind the clouds may hide;
To-morrow light and brightness
He'll scatter far and wide.
And on the road We're maving
Rich gems of thought will spring;
For those who're truly loving
The prize at lest shall win.
Then banish all rfpining: ---- --
For though the road is rough,
Above the sun is shining
And there there's joy enough.

'Mid the shadows silence broods,
Nestling like a spell.
Thro' the gloom where phantoms linger,
Keeping spectral guard,
Startled note of woodland singes

Dayhid beams are now descending,

Mutual purity.

Holy vows once given,

The Remains of President Lincoln
A letter dated Springfield, 111., February
10, says:
The vault recently constructed at Oak
Ridge Cemetery, near this city under the
direction of the National Monument Associ
ation, and to which the mortal remains of the
late President were removed a short time
since, was visted ,a few days ago by a com
mittee of the association, consisting of Gov.
Oglesby, lion. Newton Bateman, LL. D.,
and ex-Secretary of State Hatch, when the
casket containing the sacred ashes was open
ed, and for the last time, till 'the great trum
pet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
imcorruptible,' were the features of the la
mented Lincoln viewed by mortal eye.
The visit of the committee was an official
one, and made in pursuance of a resolution
of the hoard of directors of the association
the object being to enable them to certify
to the actual presence of the body in the
casket. The face was •examined through
the glass covering which underlies the outer
strata of the case by the several gentlemen
above named, and identified , by each of them
as that of the martyred President. The sad
ceremeny ended, the lid was again nailed
down and sealed with the signet — df the as
sociation.. The great stone or slab was sub
sequently rolled to the door of the sepulchre
and fitted. into its place, the finishing stroke
imparted to the solid masonry, which was
in like manner as the casket, inpreseed with
the great seal of the corporation. _ _
The remains will now rest undisturbed
till the 'national monument' shall be com
pleted, when they will be deposited,in their
final resting place, nor ever to be removed
hence 'till the heavens ; are no more.'' The
features of the' deceased were scarcely dis
cernible, the embaiwent seeming to have
offered but little, if any resistance to , the
encoachments of corruption; and the piece
of clay that once lived and moved talked,
was.known as Abraham Lincoln, is be
ing fast dissolved,. 'rafter from rafter, and
beam from beam,' and the particles of which
it was curiously compounded are rapidly re
turning to their. original elements.

Power of Imagination
.41. wealthy lady had a tickling in her
throat, and thought that a bristle a - - ter
tooth-brush had gone down and lodged in
her gullet. Her throat daily grew worse.—
It was badly inflamed, and she sent for the
family doctor. He examined it, carefully
and finally assured her that nothing was
the matter—it was a mere nervous delusion
he said. • Still her throat troubled her, and
she became so much alarmed that she was
sure she should die. A friend suggested
that she should call in Dr. Jones, a young
man just commencing practice.. She did
not like at first:ilike the idea, but •finally
consented, and Dr. Jones. was called. He
was a person of good address and polite
manners. He looked carefully at her throat
asked her several questions as to the sensa
tion at the seat of the alarming malady, and
finally anounced that he thought he could
relieve.her in a short time. On his second
visit he'brought with him a delicate pair of
forceps, in the teeth of which he had insert
ed a bristle taken froth an ordinary tooth
brush. The rest can be imagined. The
lady threw baek her head; the forceps were
introduced into her mouth, a prick—a loud
scream! and 'twas all over; and the young
physician, with a smiling face, was holding
up to the light, and iuspedting with lively
curiosity, the extracted bristle. The patient
was in raptures. She immediately recover
ed her health and spirits, and went about
everywhere sounding the praises of "her sa
viour," as she persisted in calling the dex
trous operator.
Ducking Women.
The Legislature of Virginia, in the good
old days, two centuries and a half ago, enact
ed the following law for the punishment of
women.
"At a grand assembly held in James Cittie
in the year 1616, were passed many acts to
the glorie of Almightie God, and the publi
que good of this his Majesties colonie of
Virginia," Among tham was the following,
entitled; "Women causing scandalous snits
to be ducked:
- "Whereas oftentimes many babbling wo
men often scandalize their neighbors, for
which their poore husbands are often brought
into chargeable and vexatious suits and cost
in great damage:
"Be it therefore enacted .by the authority
aforesaid that in actions of slander occasion
ed by the wife, as aforesaid, after judge.
meat passed by: the damages the woman
shall be punished by ducking; and if the
slander be so erroneous as to be adjudged at
a greeter damage than five hundred pounds
of tobacco, then the woman to suffer a..d,uck
ing for each five hundred pounds of tobacco
so adjudged against her husband, he refuses
to pay the tobacco:
If a-similar law was to be passed now,
what an uproar it would cause. The negro
question and "restoration" would, ,sink into
insignificance.

Not what He Bargained for.
A rich occurrence recently took place . in
St Louis. •A fancy• fashionable' and 'fast
young married man became eurimOred of a
gay widow, and sought to make a conquest
of her. The, intended victim soon saw the
drift of hia intentions and impaired a punish:
meat for his audacity" not equalledsince 'the
"Merry Wives of Windsor.' 3 `She apparent.
ly. listened to the soft persuasions of his.win l
ning voice, and made an appointment to re
ceive him at her house.
Here hoWever, the justly indignant lady
lad - prepared for him a reception different
from that ,, of his dreams. He was received
. and taken into a darkened parlor, with hush
ed whispers, carrying boots in hand. Left
for a moment with the lone beatings of his
heart, the folding doors were thrown wide,
admitting alood of light, and exhibiting a
crowd of gentlemen and.ladies,•sniong whom
was the wife whom he thought was unsus
pectingly at his home. The denouement
of the scenuis said to have been rich in the
extreme, though the bootless -Knight re

The Church in Mexico.
This consists of one Archbishop, ; eight
Bishops, and about 10,000 inferior clergy
of all orders. It is the richest church es
tablished in the world. Its landed proper
ty, mortgages, and rents are estimated to be
worth about $150,000,000. to say nothing
of the untold millions invested is eathedrals
and church edifices, which are all of the
most solid and costly construction, and are
said to be as valuable now as the day they
were - built. With their gold and silver ves
sels, candlesticks, and other ornaments; these
buildings (of which there are 108 in the city
of Mexico alone) are estimated at $150,000,-
000. The landed property. is continually in
creasing in value, iu the same measure that
the silver mines are becoming more prodtic
five. , The revenuesuf the clergy are still
very large; though not so, enormous as they
were when Mexico was a Spanish colony.—
At that dme the annual income of the Arch
bishop was $130,000, and that of the eight
BishOps united $400,000. The Archbishop
is the financial as well as the ecelesiastical
head of the church, and subordinate to him
there is a single person in each diocese, by
whom this vast property is controlled.
WOOLEN CLOTHING.—The most health
ful clothing for our climate the year round
is made of wool. If worn next the akin by
all classes, in summer as well. as winter, an
inealeulable amount of coughs, colds, diar
rhcoas, dysenteries, and fevers would be pre
vented, as also many sudden and premature
deaths from eroupe, diptheria, and lung
diseases. Winter maladies would be pre
vented by the ability of a woolen garment to
keep the natural heat about., the body, more
perfectly, instead of conveying it away as
fast as generated, as linen and flaxen gar
ments do; as alas cotton and silk, although
these aro less cooling than Irish linen, as
any one.ean prove by noticing the different
degrees of coldness on the application of a
surface of six inches square of flannel cot
ton; and linen to the akin the moment the•
clothing is removed. The reason is, that
wool is a bad conductor of heat, and linen is
a good conductor nf heat.—Dr.
