WlSTHRCr. of HoStOD.WSt Invited by the council of that city, to aJdre a meeting cf the citizens in Kaneail 11 11, called to f ejoice over the fall of Uichmocd.iT he victory of Gbaxt b regard! as the finishing blow to ll e rebellion. To use bis own language, the couatr j could to longer doubt that the end of this great trsgedy, tbe very laat scene of tbe last act, U close at band. We should hire no feir that there are to be any more Richmond fa the Ce!d la our daj aoJ generation. AqJ we had the utmost condesce thit union, r.ec ard freedom were at length certain to Le secured We gift thca aentimeats of tbi puir min leJ and emise&t Uteamen to ahow that be thoroughlj lyrapath'tc with the administration in its e f forts to uppre? tbe rebellion and resfure lie authority of the government over the inurgenc atatea. While rejoicing over the dunfall of the rebellion and the triuaaph of or arms, Mr. WurBior heped it wusld not be accumpscicd ' wlth'any manif'at!ons of vlidictlveness era reTeogeful spirit . We quote hi own eloquent language in giricg expression to the sentiment which be thought should govern agrcr.t aiid magnanimous people in the hour of triumph. He aaid: " Let me only eipre the hope tht in all oar rrjoicing,now and hereafter, wc shall exhibit spirit worthy of tho-e who recognize a Dirine hand in what baa occurred. Let no botutful exultation tnieg! with our joT; no brutal vindictirece? tarnish our triumph Let ui indulge no sprit of engemee or ol extermination toward the conquered; cor breathe out threatening! tod tlaugbter against foreign nations. Tie great woik of war accomplished, tbe eren greater rork of pec will remain to be undertaken, and it wilt demand all our encrgie and endurinre. Let us show our gratitude to Ood by doicj; all that we cn to mitigate the sorrow and sufferings of thor-e upon whom the ciUmiliea of war hare fallen. Let ns exert ourjelre i wilh fresh zeal in ministering to the sick and wouuded, to biLdicj up lie broken beirH, in providing for widows and orphan, for refugre and frecdrr.en, In recruiting, as far and a faet as we can, the chords of friendihip and good will wbererer they bare been abatiered, i wept a war, and thus exhibit oar land in that nobleatof ail attitudes the ocdy at'.iludo worthy of a christian ration tht ol seeking to restore and to tnainuin pece and brotherhood at home and abrot 1. Thui only can our triumph be worthily celebrated." Tbese . timely, eloquent, and chriaiian eutimeets were receired in Faneuil 1111 with applauie, and they are such which shouli gorern an enlightened, a citilizfd and a christian nation. To err is human to forgire tliTiiie In this connection, an insUi.ce in the history of tbe Cod mo ia most appropriate Upon a certain occasion the populace were z ea!ouly inclined to vieit upon an erring weman tho pcualty of a tiolated law. When ?he was brought forth for punishment he rebuked the multitude by calling upon bim, who waa without fin, to cast tbe first atone. There were tone free fron transection. We, also, call attention to the remarks of Ilaxar Waad Rbichek, which will be found in this morning' issue, upon the duty of tbt hour. He coincides with tbe sentiment expressed by Mr. WisTHioK that tlo only attitude worthy of a christian cation is that of eckin; to reetore and maintain pece and brotherhood at borne and abroad. The Future Speculations upon the Term of the f orthcoming Tlrsaasje f the President to the Insurgent Conflicting VieT of the llepubll ran Leaders. A dispatch from Washington girea the following speculations in reference to the proposed pro clamation of tbe president to tbe insurgents, and the conflicting fiewsof the republican leader in regard to the terms which should bs oSVrcd to the rebel to resume their allegiance to t'.e ernment: It is underatood here thxt Vt a dent Lincolc i about to Uiue a proclamation from Richmct, ). in accordance witb tbe almost ucanircous wieh of the norttcrn people, definier the term uron which the rebels must resume their alleiinc to the anion, and appealine to them to stop their tow utterly suicidal reiatacce to tbe contitntcd authorities.

THE NORTH-" TO THE SOUTH. Ilenrj- Ward needier on the Duty of the Hoar Lore your Neighbor the Nation's 5lotto Letter from IMrmouth rhurch. (Tron Tbe !T T-rx T.a?s, Aprd 6 J In eonseqeence cf an announcement made by the Rer. Mr. Deecher, at the clo?e of his sermon lut Sucday Eorcin, bis lecture room was densely crowded last etening, when he delivered, as hia farewell discourse to his people, prior to his Tisit "to Kort Sunter, an .d irsM on the dutr cf the hour, arid the proptiety of an extension of tbe riht h n 1 of feuow.ih'p ?o r pop 01 th? After tbe ordinary excrci'ts, 5!r. I'her begin by statirg that one of the rr.ot interesting taratires in the bible ws3 tht four.d in Judge, whcicinitis stated that au old Levite, sbo, with bis wife, was traveling in the country, found, cn r'ning" in the morning, that hia wife had been so maltreated that fbe could tK-t rie when calie;!. Taking her blecdiug corpse to his dwelling, ke cut it into twelve pieces, and sent cno to ererr tribe of Iracl. Asking th? meaning of this iusdlt, the Israelite were toid'that in the tribe of Deujamin dwelt the murderers The tribe was asked to give up the culprits, but impudently refused Then the other tribes, ordered by the Lord, le!! cpon them and destroyed them almoet entirely, enre onlr about a tboi:and who fled and bid in the cares The p intto which I wi8li to call attention, is the situation presented by the tribe of Benjamin, wben cat o3" tiy the vengeance of their brethren They were 10 deipoüed and impoverished, and o pitiable in their d:st:ri a to excite the com pa.aaionof their destroyers. The people then went up to the bouo of the Lord, And .ke J why it was that one tribe yet was wactin to the bouse of Israel. They then went to tbe men who had fleJ, and gate thera wives, that they miht ra'u up seed to tho restored tribe The offene was as great an rno as could have beer committed, and was persisted ia after expostula tion. The tribes of Ierael obeyed tbe Lord, and destroyed the tribe ol Derjamin, all but one thousand men. They felt that the tribal allotment wa a holy name, and they felt thtt without Ilerj itain, Israel was rot .aa it wag of old. We have come together in cireumstsncca like it it: our time Wc larcent ar.d moan before God that a triba should ba so cear extinguiihraent So lonsj as it; was necessary, our leaders had th'f one paramount duty before them, to maintain tho supremacy of the government. Bit from the moment of victory a new feeling came upon them, atid they yearned for their brethren. It is aome time since I have felt trouble ccaserainj the government. For over a year, ever aince Grant and Sherman took comtnaud, it has seemed but a question ef ti me. There have been day? .and weeks of doubt, but they were exception?.. No or ia now so faint-hearted aa to doubt that the end is cear. The fall of rter?burg and Richmond, the position of Grant aid the flicht of Lee, sattle the questiou beyond a doubt. The day cf bulletins is pi'M-d. The cruel, bro.d, die dful war, which has populated tho dirk regions beyond with tbe murdered ard the slain, is now ending. It i ia the agony of death now, and we m joke ia it Our work has just begun. We have urged tbe people of the north to stiffen their backbone acd to keep up their moral bine, and we h ire done our duty That such a man should be elected as be who has reassumed the presidertial chair is a migaificenj result. Bat now we have tbe country, and the whole country, in our hands. We have fought for it, and are resconaible for it. I have taaght you to believe that the whole union waa indispensable to tbe honor ol the country. We did not care to see tbe north prosporoa. and great, and healthy, and the south feeble, impoverished ard weakened by excesses We are bondsmen for tbe welfare and prosperity of the country, not of New KngUn 1 or any other sertion. The exigencies of our country require us to do a thousand fold more than ever before, and first let ua take care that we do not fall into tho easv tin of venseance under the plea of justice. Few men caa afford to be just until they first learn to love. I hear many men aay this war ought not to be ended until tbe principal traitors are bunr, and that sour apple-tree to take tbe place of Hainan's gallows, should swing the artb traitor Jeö. Divis. If Mr. Davis was my lawful prey to night, I would t'o by bim as I did with another wasp yesterday. 1 saw the fellow on my door in the country, and was just about to smash him, when I said what's the use; it'a only a wasp, and it's cot at all probable that he and I will meet again, and I'll let him go. That what I'd do with JefT Davis. Let him go awsy where he'll be by himself, powerless to injure us, and of no particular account to anybody elite. And if I had my way after the close ol fighting, I would not le: one drop of blood be spilled; and then I could say to tbe world that this great civil war bts been ended as none other ever was. Ought there not be an exhibition of law and justire ought not there to be a terrible spectacle of retribution? say some. In mercy's name, baa there cot been mark enough? Is not, ia the penalty already incurred, -God's vengeance paten: er.ough? We dou't want any more vengeance I would cot expatriate any leaders ca the ground of vengeance; but as they have once raisled the people, they might do so again. I would expatr ate and dUtracch! theai. I don't know as yoo wilt go with me in this itw. I am, however, consistent, having never urged the s'.ighkCJt bedding of blood, eave when it was ne.e:ary to e-tblih the supremacy of the government. And trore we wish low to thow the south their total nraupprehension of our former sentimeuts. Their cccnir.r politicisns bar made th?ai believe that we nut thea, but we don't. Tell me why a man living in South Carolina or Georgia Lculd bs more antagonist:? than or e is the wet:. U was tried tluriaj the late election to Stir up a feelicg of diitruatand jealousy, but it couldn't be do 20 There are no antagonistic ia teres: betweea the north and the south. Our religion, blood, acd business are tbe ame. and if there are no social or politic al reasons for t.itred, why should we rot be the best of friends? But, cext, we must rot undertake to re etabli?h ths v)u:h jutt as she was can repair property, bnt if yet sweep off a generation of men yoa can net replace that 13 a generatioa.

Dear Sir ?iu;e you are s.b ut, on the call of the go7erm:er.t of the Uuitc-i Sutes. to visit Charleston, and take part ia the solemn ceremor.its with which the old rlag. which four years aco was lowered upon Fort Sumter, is to be raised again ca that memorable spot, it seem dc-irttle to ua to express to you something of the feelings which fill our hearts, as you go forth upon this glorious errand. In reviewing the past four year?, we have nothing to regret in respect to the part which wa hive taken ia sustaining tbe government in its cfTjrts to suppress the rebellion, except thst it has been o small, that we have done so little and sacrificed so little ia support of a cauiesojust and ruhteoua. Nor do we regret the poiiion which the church has always occupied in reference to slavery. We are as we have always been, opposed to slivery, as an error and a crirue. Your testimony has always been given in a spirit ol love, born for the caster and the slave; and cow that rlivery, a we trust, is about shortly to perish forever from our land by constitutional enactment, we need not renew the arguments which we have in pit days felt it our duty to urge. But now, in this hour ol, we trnst, decisive ar.d final victory, our hearts are drawn towards our brethren in ths south in a peculiar manner, and we de-ire, through you, to express our fetl-, in; toward them We wish you to say to thern, in our behalf, tha! we have no desire to glory over them ftr Iej any deaire for revenge Gl idly do wc lcive vengenree to Iii tu to whom aloce it belorga, praying that he will forgive the in of all our brethren, hi well a? our own. We seek only the highest good of the south; we gladly bail the igns f repeutence and returning reason cn the pirt of our fellow citizens who have been led af-fray, nnd are ready to eive those who truly return to loyally the greeting of chiis tiaxi welcome and brotherly love We with no privilege for ourst:lvea under the government which we would not give to every loyal man everywhere, but Insisting only oa the necessary guarantees for freedom and equal rights for all We should rejoice to receive bick our erring brethren to all tho blessings ar.d privileges of the Union, and we wish especially to appeal to the chris'iaa men of the south to hasten on the re conciliation which we and all christians at the north desire, and to take the lead in restoring peace to a country which can never be divided, feeling thAt in r.o way can they or we better serve our common Magrer thin bj promoting peace and good will among brctbern while maintaining ju-tice, good government and law. May tho Lord go with you, protect you,inpire and guide you to a full measure of usefulness, and bring you again to your labors in our mid -a Affectionately your biethren in Christ. FrcmtbeNrw Ycrk WoiM. Tbc Public ICejotcinffs. Tbe Evening Post, with iis usual want of candor, accuses us of belittling tbe great event over which the country is rejoicing. Wo have r.o re ply to make to its aspersions, but are glad of the occasiou it affords us of Ptatirtc why democrats, above every other class of men in the community, rate the recea successes at a hih value Before procee"dinsr with thia statement, we may perhaps say, without falling into a very great absurdity, that inasmuch as democrats arc men as well cs partisans, it is bard to conceive why they may not sometimes participate ia feelings common to human nature. As they have many dear friends and relative? in the army, it is at least conceivable that they may, on this account, feel tome silisfaction in an event which visibly hastens the return of our soldiers to their home. Democrats .are also tax payers, and consumers of the necessaries of life; and it is posi ble that they do not object to etopping the in crease of the public debt, and a general lowering of prices. But even if democrats be supposed destitute of social and doaiestic attachments, lore of property, and of th it pride of country and admiration of brilliant military achievements which is common to tho tlitc and the rabble, it must still be allowed that the democratic party has always been the representative and eruodiracnt of what used to be called 'manifest destiny," cr that instinct for territorial greatness which sought to bring the greater part of the North American continent under the away of the federal union Tbe party which annexed Texas, which acquired an immense slice of Mexico, which looked forward with complacency and sat isfaction to tho future planting of the federal fl tg in the Island of Cuba, would have a great deal to unlearn if it did not rejoice in the extension of our flag over any part of this continent from which it has been excluded. But waiving these consideration, and supposing the democratic party severed from its traditions and to h ive lost the common sympathies of human nature, it is still possible to account for the joy with which it bails the grett military succe?s weich gladdens all patriotic hearts. Only admit that the party has been sincere in its political action during the last three years, and it log ically follows that it ought to be the m-st deeply gratified body of men to whom the knowledge of our victories h is come The democratic par;y has complained of, and protested against, certain habitual practices of the existing administration, which are certainly j in contravention of all former usage, and are be lieved by democrats tobe in gross violation of the federal constitution. The democratic party rejoices in the great and decisive military successes of the last few days, because they remove every color of pretext "or apology for uch unconstitutional practices To our protests agsiuat these high handed and unprecedented acts it baa been habitually replied, that they were necessary to Pave the life of the nation, which was in the deadliest peril. We have maintained that this excuse was invslfd; but, whether good or bad, it is cow clear that it can no louder, with any pre tense of decency or consistency, be alleged. Beittle the national victorie-! In whit way pray tell us, can the narional victories be eo belittled, aa by saying that thev have not rescued the nation trora the danger ."which was held to justify suspension of the constitution, and the introduction of a practical despotism? The high htr.ded anj arbittry acta which virtuallv suspended republican ROTemment io tbi whole land, were never defended oa any other ground than this; that the cation wa in "the agony of a great crix-s, and that a desperate diseasa justified violent remedies. If the nation is tili in the agony of a dangerous fruggle, wat justification can there be lor dancing with exuberant j iy a: its beJ.ide. before the cris s ia past? But if tho danger is pit; it it is at lcugta demonstrated that the military power of the rebel h shattered; that we have got Oemin the Ciudin Forks; that our attitude is one of triumph and theirs of Titration; it this be the truth of the matter, and our joy is tbe joy of rational men. then there is no further excuse for the arbittry and despotic practices agk'.nft which the democratic ptrtv remonstrate Here is a t.-jeh stone of eincerit 'that will test the character cf the republican party. IfttfV have practiced despotism from the löve of it; i'f the pretest of pent to the rational life was a hol low pretence, we hill wi:r.c 1 pcrsisterce ia the same high haadel courses. If the excuse for such proctadirg isnot gone then all the lale rejoicings are bjrd Hfrc, hm. i a shrp dileuius, on ore cr the other horn of wh.';h the republican parry ra.i hang lraaied, unless there is au immediate a: d final utop put to the arbi rary measures hieb that party has so lTg justified. If these rr.fas ures continue, either their present rjoicin is feigced and hypocritical, or el.-e they bare been hypocrites hi the reasons they assigned to juatifv the;r despotic practice. If they perit in thera. they either belt:le General Graut magnificent j successes, or take crT the mask and et and forth! the avowed erecnies of republican rcrerament. For our part, we bei'tve the late successes 10 be solid and real; tbit they justify the joy of ocr j people; and tha' they portend either the ffedy j end of the war or the downfall cf the admiuiaira'tijn pirty. The majority of the people are p i trioiic, and are ainceieiy attacked to :Le principles of frea gov:ameat. They Lave tolerated the despotic acts of the admixUtratloo, only because they tare put a gcaerous carstruatdoa on Its
alleged exena The poople, of coarse, see that this excuse will co longer avail; they will cot content to hire their IsttÜlgetce co Insulted as to be toli that tbe cation, after all tbe brflliaLt achievements vl our amies, is f ill ia the arcaiet of a death struggle so terrible and doub'.foles to justify t FCpcLica of tbe safeguards of lite-ty. Mr. Lit.colo must low charge hi? policy ; he cu-t now allow us to live cader a government of law aoJ not a goveromeut of arbitrary caprice, or it will go hri with him aad his pr:y. 0 RGAKIZIKG IaWTARY COMMJ S SIO N SOCIETIES,
J'cyort of an .utliorired tgent.'' The following admirable srd qu'zt'-al di. patch ia addressed to the secretary of the United States Satiitary Commission, a branch of wbic'i is located at San Fr&ncirco. We extrtct from The Newg Letter snd Mining Journal of that city. For direct and cutting sarcasm, it will commend iif-sell to the lovers of the ridiculou-: Diaa Üia In compliance with your sugues tion, 1 report that, as the authorized egent of the Sanitary Cocomi-sion. after getting put up to a thing or two by you, I started from San Fran Cisco, carrying neither purse or script, in fact without a re- cent in my povkc: I organiied a society at Watsonville; there is a very cood hotel there; I bad a good bed breakfast, dinner and aupper, fifteen drinks and eight eegars I followed your instructions. The landlord told me what I owed; I told bim to lay up his treaa urea in Heaven, ard that I was a Sanitary C.ui urssiou agent. He said he wished he'd known it before. I told him about treasures in Heaven aain; be said: "There is fifteen dollars gone to h 11" Mi-taken man I'erh ips it will do him more good there than in Il'ven He'll never call for it there. I left bim. I am glad it is raining, it will make matters fo much better for the Sanitary Commission. After bleeding Watson ville as much as it would stand, I wetit to Piscadcio, celebrated for i's potatoes, which are called 'puda" ia this sec'ion of the country. Thej are a kind, ger.er r-us, hospitable people, at d, as a natural co;;sequenrc, loyal. I told my landlord here that 1 hadn't got a cent, and he said under tho.-e circumstances he could not thiuk of charging mc anything. He wished to know how much we charged fur putting down a man's name an 1 place of business, with a subscription of $51)0 against it, and offered me $3. I n jsced his proposition with scorn; I took the five dollars Fan-:v turning the sanitary corarnU-iou into a cheap adveni.-ing medium! I organized a society in S ml Cruz, but couldn't get any cas-h out of the people. I trust trade will soon in crease here, for the sake of the ssnitarv commission. I then went to Sqaekville, a flourishing little town wi'h ninety five inhabitants. I organ ized a soldiers' aid society here The landlord of tbe hotel killed a rooster which he'd bad in the family eight tears, in honor of my coming I ate part of it; I would do anything to advance the 9 tuitary commission. The Ua fiord's little daughter fl ixen-haired little cberubof nine summers gave me a "bit" for the poor soldiers. I had to spend the dear child's humble offering at the bar of a copperhead rum seller in a neih boring towovwho, when I mentioned thes.nithrv commission after laving my parched p with a whisky straight, cried: The s tuitary commission be d d ! It you dou't plank down a bit for that drink, the first thing you know you'll get your jaw in a aling " The mercenary m.i,! I then went to Muntere?, which is much in jured by the diou'h; this riin will do the sanitary commission much good. I did not make much here. I got dead-beaded, js you told me I s-hould.ou all the states, very eisi'y, with one exception. This driver, on my tel'ms him tha' 1 was the sgeat of the sanitary com minion , sa:d: "I jnst wish I could eel made au agent, too, and you'd catch me driving this &t.?c; oh yes, much!! A pretty good thing you fellers hive got, and a siht of what you collect will go to the soldier.." Wc know, dear O. C , that they won't got a sight. He continued: "Why, thit sanitary commission is a bigser thing for vou fellows aa work it than Jenny Lind was to Uarnum, or th in being superintendent of a popular mining company, and you ask t.t be let off your faro I'll see you all " I won't repeat what he said, my dear 0 0.; sufiu-e it to say it was some thing very irreverent, and, I sincerely trust, will drwni the ruffian to cver!?ting torment. After he had, in rather etrong terms, expressed his opinion that the sanitär y commission was a speculation gotten up for the benefit of a few. 1 asked Lira to let me feel his back. Upon doing so I told bim it was covered with barnacles, and that he was a fossil, and belonged to the antediluvian age. He retorted, angrily, that he didn't want to be called French names. And I left him as he would, prcbibly, if I had not done so, performed an operation which he described as bust ing mc in tha snoot, I have traveled on my shape and sxniury commission, over Fix hunnred and thirtv miles, and though 1 have not rn tde Buch a pile aa you expected I should, I have or gauixed a good rainy societies I have rot made money. All of which is mist respectfully sub raitted bv vour obedient servant, NePDV LlGIlTMNGERS YlLLUVi vrATi; rritfiM. Corn is beir deliveted io Tcne Haute at sixty ceuis per bushel.
