Tbe rebellion, although it bad received many star feriog blows from oar gallant soldiers, under the distinguished (lecerals whose fame is worldwide1, was then tili audacious end deSant; and aitnoaro toe result rnigst cot nave been considered doubtfel, the end of tbe war seemed not ualikslv to be far ia the future. Eleven month have passed away, acd thi great ciTi! war bis been brought to a clorioiu conoluVion. The stars and stripe) are ftgtln recognized aa the emblem of liberty and union in every part of our national do in in, and more than e.bt bendred thousand loyal men have been auitered out of service, and converted frCm gallant aoldiera into peaceable, Uab:dic? tod ludustnous cm sens. Tbe question of State soveroicntv bas been settled by an appeal to arms, so J the sov ereiznty of the Government under the Constitu tion is established forever. The greatest ciril war tbat has ever been wared upon the face of the earth bas been concluded; the mot powerful armies of modern times hare been disbanded; and yet civil liberty is as safe and vigorous as it was before the war commenced. During the Lroercsi of tbe rebellion there ha. been a strain ' a poo republican institutions, but they have tut talced it without the lo?s of a particle of their strength. Sitte rieht and individual rights may ia some instances, perhaps unnecessarily. bare been invaded; but to-day there h at tbe North no State right anJer the Constitution, and no individual rieht, wbicb h not as much respect ed and as well established as they were when tbe Crst run was fired upon Sumpter. It is thia fact which makes our triumph a eublime and ere iter triumph than the result of the war itself. But this ii not all. Jou at the moment when tbe people were njoicing over the fall o Richmond and the surrender of tbe Confederate f araiee, the Chief Magistrate of tbe Nation, the cost beloved and the moat trusted of men, fe bv the hands of aa a.3ain. For a moment the Nation wai struck dumber tbe atrocity of the act, and the magnitude of the Ios that bad been sustained. As the report flashed over tbe wire that the beloved Chief Magiitrate of the Nation 13 tbo mtdat of tbe rejoicing over the victory and the troppect of returning peace, bid been slain, whit heart wis there throughout thii broad land wbicb waa net filled with anguish and aprre bension? what thinking mu did not put to hiaielf tbe questions: Uin the Kepuhhc sttnd this unexpoctel calamity 7 Can our popular luititu lions bear this new trial? The anguiih rtmained snd still remain, but tho apprehension exutcd but for a moment. Scircely had the announce ment been made that Lincolu had fallen, before it was followed by the report that the Vice 'resident had taken tbe oath of 1'residcnt, and that tbe functions of the Government were being performed aa regularly and quietly as though nothing had happened. And what followed. The body of the beloved President was taken from Watmcgton to Illinois, through crowded cities among a grief stricken and deeply -excited people mournin&a no people ever mourned, and moved . .1 aa co people ever were moreu; auu yei mere waa no popular violence, no outbreak of popular pas sion; borne a tbonsand miles to its last renting place, hundreds of thousands doinsuch honor to the remain as were never pud to those of km or coaqueror; and tbe public p;ace, notwithstanding immense indignation was mixed with lntenso sorrow, was in no icsUnce disturbed Hereafter there will be oe skepticism among us in regard to the wisdom, the excellence acd the power of Kepublicaa institutions. There is no country upon earth that could hive passed through the trials to which tho United States have been subjected during the pat four ye-trs, without beinj broken into fragment. ANHatW JOHNSON. But you will expcf, perhaps, that 1 say something of his (Mr. Lincoln's; successor. In anv other place and under any other circumstances I should not feel at liberty to make any particular allusioo to tbe President of the Uuited S;tet, holding as 1 do a a tent in his Cabinet. But knowing that many of you, ruy townsmen and neighbors, have been of the opinion that tbe settlement of the great question which would necessarily come up for settlement at the cloe of the war would require on tbe part of the Chief Magistrate a profounder wisdom and a broader statesmanship than waj required during its con tlnnance, acd that cot a lew have been deeply anxious lest Mr." Johnson might have been unequal to the trodigious work tnat ha? been devolved upon him, J leel constrained to ay that there is, in my judgment, no ground for apprehension on this subject. Trying and difficult a is his situation, Mr. Jubcson is master of it. He possesses, in sn eminent degree, the qualities that fit him for the Presidency at the present time. A Southern man, thoroughly acquainted with the eSect of slaver j upon society, he knows bow to deil with Southern men in their prefect circumstances Ardently attached to Tennessee, tbe love which he bears to his State U entirely subordinate to tbat which be bc-ir t the Uuion Jealous of State right, be is equally jealous of the rights of the General Government. A radical and uncompromising enemy of nullibeatlon, secession and erciy form of disloyalty, he is equally an enemy to any measures which, in his judgment, are calculated, by de priviog the State- of their just rights undsr the Constitution, to convert tbe Federal Government into a despotism. Raicd in slave States and until recently a slaveholder, be has never had any love for slavery, and bas always been the opponent of the aristocracy that was bei upon it. By nature and by education, heiitjusfthc man for re establishing tbe Federal authority over the recently rebellious States. And he has takc:i hold of this work with adevotiou, an energy and a prudence that promise the beet results. He is a man, also, of excellent judgment and great singleness of purpose. Honest himself, he expects honesty in others. Although los; in public life, and a Ladiag politician of bis own school, be is in co sente a partisan. Unassuming ia xnannem, he is yet self possessed and dignified He listens to the advice of thoe in whe judgment be has confidence, but acts upon his own convictions, and generally according to his first impressions. With great decision of character, ho ii never besty in action. Stern and unyielding in his adherence to principle and duty, he is a man of kindly emotions. Having by hisowu indomitable energy fought his way up from a low to a high estate, be is in hearty sympathy with lhoe who are treading the same upward path. He ii, ia a word, a ciear heded, upright, energetic, self reliant statesman; a dignified, courteous and kind hearted gentleman. His administration will be characierxed by all the force and enargy aud independence of Jackson's, with very little of it partisan character. the ratsiMMV EEcossTatcTto.i roucr. Under bis direction the great work of re-estab iiaing civil Government at the South under the Federal Constitutiou m going rapidly forward toorapiilv, it seems, according to the opinion of macy at the North, whose opinions are eatitled to 5 re it consideration. I know, ?ir, that many oubt the wisdom of Mr. Johnson's policy; that many are of the opinion that by their ordinances of secession the rebellious Suws had '-eased to be States ander the Constitution; acd that nothing should be done by tbe Kxecutive in aid of the restoration of their State Government until Congress had dttsrmi&ed ou hat term they should be restored to the Union wh.ch they bad voluntarily abandoned and attempted to destroy; that as the people cf these State hJ appealed to tie nor J. aLd beeu ealjuga:ei ty tbe sword, they hould be governed by the aword until the law-making power tad disposed of the subject of retonitruction, that no State that had pasej or dinaece of ac-'ou and nuiiedwilh the socalled Confederate Government honld ever be admitted again into the Union unites in its pre timlaary proceedings. 11 men, lntpevtive of colar.

A tatr.E aavir I axu isol S Al tJTlwit Now, as governmect is at all time a necessity among men, and as it was especially o at the South, where violence and lawlessness naa lull swav. the question to be decided by the Piesident was simplr this: Shall the people at tbe South be held under military rule until Congress ball act upon the question, or shall immediate measures be takrn by the Kxecutive to restore them to civil government? Alter mature consideration, the i're-ider.t concluded it to be his duty to adopt the latter course, and I am satisfied that in o doing be has acte 1 wiatlj. Military rule will not be in demand by the people of the United States one moment looger than there is an absolute ncceity for it. Such an army as would have been requi-ite for tbe government of the people of the South, as a subjugated people, until Congress might which they could be rre-cribe the terms on I restore i tn the Fnirtn I would have been too severe a strain upon oar Republican inititutiorii, ai:d too expensive for the present condition of the Treasury. Tho President has therefore gone to work to restore the Union by the use, from the nece-isity of tbe case, of a portion of those who hare been recently in arms to overthrow it. TUE STt TUISN rXOrLt CAN BX TBA'STLi. The experiment may be regarded as a dangerous one, but it will be proved, I apprehend, to have been a judicious one. Never were a people no disgusted with the work of their own hicda as wera the great mass of the people of the South (even before tho collap.M) ot the rebellion, with the Government which was attempted to be eet up with the overthrow of the Government of their forefathers. Never were a people so completely subjugated as tho people of the rebel States. I have met a great many of thoso whom the President is using in his restoration policy, and they have im pruned me most favorably. I believe them to be honest in taking tho amney oath, and in their pledges of fidelity to the Constitution and the Union. Slavery has perished this all acknowledge and with it has gone down the doctrine of ectsioa. Stato sovereignty had been discussed in Congress, before courti, in the public journals, and among the people, aud at last, "when madness ruled the hour," this vexed question was submitted to tbe final aibitramcnt ot the sword. The question, as all admit, In 9 been fairly and definitely decided, and from this decision of the sword there will b no appeal. It is undoubtedly true that the men of the South feel sore at the result, but they accep the situation, acd are preparing for tbe changes which the war has produced in their domestic institutions with an alacrity and an exhibition of good feeling which has, I confess, surprised, as it has gratified, me. . Newa sen RAGS. Iu the work of restoration tbe President had aimed to do tbat only which was necessary to bo done, exercising that power only which could bo properly exercised under the Constitution, which guarantees to every State a Republican form of Government. Regarding slavery as having perished in the rebellious State, either by the proclamitiou of h'w predecessor, or by the result of the war, and determining that no rebel who had not purged himself of his treason should have any part in the restoration of the Civil Governmeutt which be in aiding to establish, he has cot considered it within the scope of bis authority to go further and enfranchise tbe negro. For this he is censured by many true men at tbe North and a few extreme men at the South, but I have no doubt he will be sustained by the people and that the result will vindicate tho wisdom of his course. no uastt raaaoMS roa thk lxame o tor re8ELLI0.V. But while the President is inclined to treat with kindness, and to trust those who, under in'HUken notions in regard to tbe character ot the Government, joined in the rebellion, but cot until (after a struggle on their part to prevent it) the. States to whicn they belooged bad passed the ordinance of eccc.iiion, and the United States was unable to extend to them that protection to which they were entitled there is no man who holds in greater abhorrence than he does the crime of treason, or tbe infamous ecoundrels who systematically and deliberately starved and poisoned our soldiers in prison. To the plotters of tbe rebellion there will be, I apprehend, no hasty pardon?; to the murderers of our gallant soldiers no mercy. STATU SSE.-VIW. KoiMrat Cobmtv. Editor of the Sentinel: Election day here snd in most ot the county precincts was one of unuual interest, considering the unimportant otScaa to be filled. Fountain county standi furroucded almost entire by Abohtiou counties. For more than ten years she has been subject to annual invasions by the hordes that surround her for the purpose of crushing out her inviccinle Democracy. This year, as a Democratic Board of Commissioners had caused to be issued couLty bonds t pay bounties to soldiers enUriug the service, an ii junction was sued out, sustained by the Court below, aud now pending in the Supieme Court, on appeal by the Board, a hue and cry was raised against the payment of tbe bonds, by the Abolitionists, whose motto was "the last man and the last dollar." Negro suffrage and anti-negro suffrage was used to suit each individual having acti-Democratio proclivities. Appeals for their wr-worn veteran ticker against Copperheads and traitors was everywhere made, but in despite of all, the Democrats have again triumphed aud elected their ticket, over the mongrel horde at home at home and their allies from aJjoinicg counties. We have the most lovely fall. A larger or more healthy crop of com has never blessed this region; potatoes in abundance and of superior quality. Much sickness prevails; ague and fevers, however, are abating, aud soon we expeet general health. The policy of President Johnson is meeting a general approval by the Democrats. Capt. James Wilsou was here the Saturday beforo the election, electrifying our people on negro autfrage, much after the style of Morton. The Captain is devoted to the imperial powers of the Oo eminent what it says is imperial, and the States have ce right to levy taxes in opposition to its mandates. Captain Jim bas imbibed the idea that Democrats have co rights that they are aliens. He will have to submit to a further rule of county officers here (Democrats) lor a period to coaiePolitical PatAcntas. Elder Moss, a preacher of some cotoritty in the Christian Church, last eening took occaalon to preface an otherwise excellent sermon, with his views upon other men's opinions with reference to the action of the Government in regard to !Avery and the Freedmen's. ijereau," and used freely and offensively the term "copperhead." To such a degre indeed did he carry it, that several of bis congTegttion left the house, and to one gentleman, a very estimate citizen, who was leaving, he made a "direct application of the term, and was replied to by tbe gentleman in a very just, if not in a very decorous manner. Tbe language of tbe reverend gentleman, in his preface, would have done cred.t to cross road or pothou politicians. Now we have no objection to Elder Moss, "or any other man," loving Ligger better than white men, and speaking ol tria'ir admiration of woolly-heads," in the proper place and manner, but we protest against a professed "Apoatle of Christ" introducing sacn a subject into the pulpit, before a mixed audience, who alike contribute to tbe support ot the Church, Inste-ad of preaching the Gospel, par. tieularly when, as upon this occaaioa, tbe "pre-

Tbe reader of it is struck with tbe marked resemblance between the situation occuDiod by President John Adam in 179'J, and President Andrew Johnson in if Go Adam?, like jonnaon, was naturally ana ongi nally a Democrat. Circumstances had tbrowi mm into aposiuou m appareui uppo&iwou loiuai partv. Like Mr. Johnson, he came direct from the chair of the Vice-Presidencv. He was Gen Washington's, as Mr Johnson was Mr. Lin coin's, Vice-President; and from that mistakenly imagined tbat sn obligation rested upon him to continue the policy of hia predecessor. He therefore atonco adopted or appointed the Cabinet bequeathed by Waehington.or in other words became the administrator ef Gen. Washington's politioal estate. That Cabinet was devoted to the fortunes and in the interests of that great leader of the then Federal party, Alexander Hamilton, just as Mr. Johnsons Cabinet ?s de voted to Salmon P. Chase. It was in favor of tbe troucest and most monarchical form of Government. At its instance tbe Alien and Sedi tion Laws were passed, and numerous vindictive prosecutions were carried out under them, to which measures, against his belter judgment. President Adams was coerced Into approving. This bears a marked resemblance to the military commission, suspension of the writ of habeas corpus policy of Mr. Lincoln' Cabinet, to which he ha? thus far given his reluctant support. President Ada ns, like Prci'iJci.t Johnson, w sincerely desiroun of preserving the peace of the country, which was then periously threatened by a war with France. Mr. Hamilton and his con federates in the Cabinet were determined, at all hazards, to have a rupture with that country, and they bad laid the train between the two Government in such a manner tbat an explosion was all but inevitable; in fact, hostilities had commenced between the two cations on the high seas.. In this critical position, Mr. Adams, like Mr. John son, found the affairs of the Government, and like him, he has an eye eirjglc to the preserva tion of the public peace. The Cabinet was opposed to a tender of the olive branch to trance, just as the prc?cnt Cabinet is opposed to any reconciliation with our Southern peoplo. Mr. Adams was determined to appoint Commissioners to France, aud to .-elect one or more of them from the Democratic p'irty, which ardently desired peace. This was yehemently opposed in the Cabinet, while it was threatened to reject his nomiuatiou in tho Senate. Mr. Adams, however, when fairly aroused, waa a strong man, and. overruling his bad advisers, ho appointed a Commission, and upou it put Elbridge Derry , of Massachusetts, a prominent Democrat. After a vehement struggle in the Senate, tbe nomination was ratified, acd Mr. Gerry proceeded to France, and negotiated a fnir and honorable treaty of peace. Tbe opposition he had received from tho Cabinet in the French negotiations opened the eyes of Mr. Adams, nnd, upon inveiigntion, he found that during his whole Administration he had been secretly thwarted in ail bis measures by them, and that their object was to promote the factions of Hamilton. They had been guilty of every conceivable treachery to him. McHenry and Pinckney, the Secretaries of War and State, were the counterparts of Stanton and Seward in the Cabinet of President Johnson. To their underhanded intrigues Mr. Adams owed his defeat for re-election. He ascertained tbe mischief his Cabinet had done him loo late, and ever afterward bitterly regretted his mistake of continuicg them in office one day after his accession to power. We trust that President Johnson will not make a nmilar error, but that he, taking a lesson from the fate of Mr. Adams, will place around him counsellors who agree with him in policy, and who are not secretly plotting his destruction. Let us have Mr. Johnson with Mr Johnson's Cabinet, and not Mr. Johnson opposed by Lincoln's Cabinet. Cincinnati Enquirer. A Picture of the t ree Southern IMegro by a Megro Jlunluc. The Rev. Parson Brownlow, Governor of Tennessee, acd the delight of all "loyal" hearts in the Republican ranks, thus gives his opicien in his Kuoxville Whig: "Thousands of free colored persons are congregating in and around the large towns in Tennessee, and thousands are coming in from other States, one third of whom cannot gtt employment. Indeed, less than one-third want employment, or feel willing to stoop to work. They enteitain the erroneous idea that the Government is bound to supply all their wants, and even to furnish them with houses if, in order to do that, the white occupants must be turned out. There is a large demand for labor in every section of the State, but tbe colored people, with here and there a noble exception, scorn the idea of work. They fiddle and dance at night, and lie around tbe stores and street corners in the day time. And some of tbe indiscreet teachers of tbe negroes from the North, who know nothing of the negro character, have been known to tell them not to hire to while people ! Haviag tbe single idea in their heads of Abolition, tbey advise the simple and credulous negro to a life of precarious subsistence, of idleness and dancing, and of crowding into tbe towns to be educated, in preference to good wages and comfortable homes, in the country. If some great change is cot made when winter comes, ou, and if the military force is withdrawn, as tbey will be, there will be great suffering and fearful mortality among them." Of course tbey will die die like rotting aheep. F. very body that knows anything of negro life and history, even here la the North, knows thatl Lo ! the poor Indian, will soon be read, Lo ! the poor Negro, everywhere, save under tropic heats, where the banana or the orange feeds him only by plucking, or the fic leaf or palm leaf serves him for covering ! Lo ! the poor Negro ! Extermination is his inevitable destiny. "God wil?s it," in the Mohammedan phrase, and Hi will be done. i:iglit to Sixteen. Lord Snattsbury recently stated in a public meeting in London, that he had ascertained from personal observation, that of adult male criminals in thit city, nearly all had fallen into a course of crime between the ages of eight and sixteen years ; and that, if a boy live an honest lite up to twenty years of age, there were fortynine ct.:.ccs in his favor, and only one against him as to an bocorable life thereafter. Thi Is a fact 6f startling importance to fathers ai. : mothers, and shows a fearful responsibility.

WaHisTox, Oct. 14, lrC" jirrxjLaox iAVi to tt rAanoxxn. It is with feelicg of the most profound fati!faction that I am ab.e to inform the readers of the New tbl President Jobnson ha determined to ptrdoa Jefferson Pit:, and, it rnay te, even without a trul. although that point is not settled Vf t. Nor is it at all unlikelv that ia a short time Mr. Dar will te released from confinement oa the same terms that Mr. Stephen has been, and then afterwards pardoned. It it possible, bat very unlikely cow, tbat he may be brought to trial iu a civil Court for treason. But if so, and even if convicted, he will be pardoned. Tbat is certain as tbe decree of Ute. I do cot derive thie information from what tbe President said yesterday to the South Carolina Delegation, al though the fact can safely be irr. plied frem those remarks. On tbat occasion tbe Preeideat was directly applied to for the pardon of Jefferson Davis by a Committee appointed for that purpose by tbe State .Convention of Sjath Carolins; iod ou tbat point, here is what Mr. Johnson saij : WUAT THE FULilDIT SAIL. "All cannot be nardoned at once. The busi ness must be proceeded with gradually, and an effort must be made to execute the law. I avant to do what is best arxl just, and to show a pioper degree of humanity ou the part of the Govern meLt If treason ha been committed, there oucht to be some test to determine the power ot the Government to uucih the crime. The laws haviug been violated, and nu attempt made upon the life of tbe nation, there ought to be a vlndi cation of the Government and the Constitution, even if the pardoning power were exercised thereafter. If tremn has been committed it ought to be determined by tbe highest tribunal, and tbe fact declared, even if clemency should come afterward. I assure you, gentlemen, no disposition exist for persecution, or a tt iret for blood." MB. DAVIS COL'LU NOT Bk COXTlCTtD Of Tak-ASON. This language is plain enough, and needs no commentary, busy and harassed as he aas been during tho last five months, tLe Pi evident has had time for reflection upon this momentous subject, and thesoare the result of his reflections. They do honor at once to Lis head and to his heart. 1 ho highest trib'iual is the Supreme Court or one of the United States District Courts, and the President nays that if Mr. Divis is brought to trial, it tuut be before tnc highest tribunal. But has tretfon been committed? Mr Johnson does not say so. He pjJ9 twice. 4iIf trensou has been committed " The fact is. if Jefferson Davi were to be tried for treason in the Supreme Court, or before any high civil tribunal, ho would be atciuitted. Every lawyer who will examine the wh ile subject in all it relations must come to this eoncluoion. Winterer hU offfiise. was, "it waö not treason; nor cau it be proved to be treason. The chief of a belligerent power cannot be guilty of treion. If the rebellion had remained within the line of a mere insurrection, and if any of the insurgents bad fallen into our h-tcd, they would have been traitors, ar.il might have been hung as traitor-. But the rebellion passed lar beyond the limits o! su insurrection. It became a w it ot vast proportion, ia which tbe combatants on either Eide became, by the laws of Nation, invented withequil rights as belligerents. Our Government itself acknowledged the rebels as a belligerent power by exchanging prisoners It is by the principles of international law that our tieatment of Mr. Davis must be regulated; and tho-e principles declare that he is a prisoner of war, and must be treated a? such, and cannot be tiied for treason. HE WILL EITUfcB. BK ACQUITTED OB. TABkiONXD. Nothing is more probable, therefore, than that President Johnson, after giving the subject his deliberate consideration, has come to the above cwnclu.jion. The only question i?, therefote, whether it is better to hire Mr. Davis brought to trial for treason with the certainty that he would be acquitted by the highest tribunal, or to pardon him without a trial. Mr. Johnson wants to do what is bestand just, and whatever course he finally adopts in tbe matter will be best and juxt; best for th.e honor of the country, and jut to Mr. Davis. In the mean time, the friends of tbe latter gentleman may reat aured that the Presided wi 1 not t.e deterred by the bluster on the part of the radicals from carrying out the convictions of duty on this and every other subject. THE INTERVIEW WITH THE EOUTII CAKOLIXA DELEGATION. The interview at the White House on Friday afternoon between the President and tho South Carolina delegation was of the mo?t pleasant and agreeable nature. The President caused the gentlemen to be seated, and addressed them in the tooe and maimer of great politeness and courtesy. The President's remarks were informal aud convert itional, acd touched upon other subjects than that alluded to above. The delegatiou withdrew greatly pleased with the Interview, acd impressed with the belief that the object of their mission would be successful. Drliu. Social Dispatch to the Philadelphia Ledger. Tbe lleleaso of Stephen. Washington, Oct. 12 In my dispatch of Sunday I advised you that the release of 6te phens was "near at hind." He is now at liberty, and tboegh he la paroled without a pardon, it makes not a bit of difference, for he will not be troubled further. Let me now repeat a prediction I gave you a month or so sgo, but which you declined to publish, as if iu üoubt of it verification that the release of "Davis is only a question of time." From sources of Information which I cannot dispute, I learn that lbe President bas do idea of bringing him to trial, tut, as aoon as all tbe States are in harmonious working order with the Government, the prison doors of Davis will fly open, and be will be a freo man. This, I am assured, was the intention of His Excellency long before the petitions from the respective States were poured in for his release, and ihee, with tbe action of the Mississippi, Alabama and South Carolina Conventions, looking to the same end, have more than confirmed the President in his belief tbat the trial or further disgrace of the rebel leader is not demanded either for the country's gcod or the vindication of its honor. We have tbe moat encouraging repoiU from the South with reference to the representatives nominated, and those to be nominated for the next session of Congress. Almost, if not quite. to a man, they will be able to take the "ten oath of CO, and this will disarm the radical power at once. The South is not too blind to sec the game is in its own hands, and it is acting cautiously in the matter of its organization to make sure that every one (in the language ot old Zieh T.iflor) is "fit to bo made."

Travel ia tut direction jou ni.tj, scarcely a family i to be found exempt from tbe prevailing maladies. For so great an amount of sickness the fatality can icatteij Le eaid tobe proportionate, though not a day elapses without more or less orders for our undertakers. Chilli and fever are most frequent, w uh a full proportion of intermittent, remittent and billious fevers. Our drug etores End it impossible to keep a supply of fever specifics, and that which in ordinary times was considered a full stock is now found inade quale for the demands of a day. It would be discouraging was the scourge confined to our countv, but everywhere around m it is the same. In Jackson county the sickness was so general tbat a grand jury could not be convened, and it was found tjcce?airv to adjourn tbe court. In Perry couLty, etiil further north, it is even wore, labor" in the county being almost suspended. In Madion, ilouroa, and several other of the upper counties, the regular fall term of tbe Circuit Court has been suspended, on account of tbe abewee of tbe teeewary witnesses and liti gant. Though we ire worM w:ta some twenty physicians in this town and in Anns, thev are not enual to the demand opon them. and con-ider&bie delay Is often experienced ia procuring medical aid for those tn necu 2TAa a ladj was walkic. a rbort time ago. a genileman'a button caught bold of the fringe cf ber ebiwl.

I TKEQL'ENT APPLICATIONS TO HaRBORTHE SICK ; and give them tbe care at a nurse, have induced the Sisters of Frovider.ce to open an Infirmary, which prepares them to give, in time of sickDess, an aslam to persons w ho have no regular home, and who, consequently, suifcr greatly at those times, from the want of good care and of proper accommodation. The need ef sucn an Institution has long s nee been felt; Rev. Bessonies, whose duty often calls him to the tick room, aeeins; the irocd tbat an Invalid's Home would do, has, witbio tbe last two year?, requested tbe Bisters of Frort -denes to commence one, ana it is at his repeated sagge Hons that tbe Sisters make now an attempt, hoping to benefit all tboe who may find themselves in tbe situation above alluded to Tne intention of the managera is to establish the house on principles ot charity, as well as of benevolence, ai d the basis upon which It ia fouaded w H,wnen In success! ai operation, enable it to proride for Its own sup ort. Tne invalid that have means, and who will beoag te the c ass of iica boarders, will pay ths price aet down per week, but this charge will be reduced in faror of those whose resources are limited; in this case, charges will be proportioned te the means of each one. Let It not be understood that tbe destitute will be exclodeo; to the ai tpec tally will the hand of mercy be extended, so far a the house will be able, to a-ive them gratuitous admittance; It ia only to be added, that, on their behalf, some aatdstance will be needed. The fand arising from the receipts of the sick boarders, will, it is expected, in time, support the establishment; but until men, it is hoped that the cltiien, viewfa; it favorably and taking inuret 1& H, will, for the present, help towards be maintenance. Though it begins on "small beginnings," tbe tunal mode et benevolent institutions, yet cansidarabia expense ia required in the start; a house had to be fcual, saCiclent lurniturt purchased, and every day's livine, provided for. To defray tbe hrst expenditares, tbe Sisters tad en hand ITS, collected from St. John's congregation, on the occasion of a lecture given by Rev. Father Kllroy for the b aet of this infirmary, then in projec; also 'ä and $100 donated by lnd.vidaal parties, making in all S3 O; with tbia lain the house was fumiobed with the tnd.spensatie requirements. Counting on the well known charitable disposition ef the comuiu-iity at large, alma will he locked for, the gifts may be in groceries goods, farnitare, maraet provisions all will te thankfully received, and applied, in effect, to tbe service ot tbe reduced and destitute invalids, for wbom ouly the alms are solicited. Twenty-five dollars worth cf groceries waa received as soon as the honse was opened; tbe donor is thanked fcr her liberal beaefactien and readr will to crlve her aid. The builcUg Ctted up for St. John's Home is on Houtk Tennessee street, 5o. 15. Price per week, daring tbe winter seaon, fer sick boarders, with the best accommodations bad, f;.
