2 - - THE! EVANS VILLE DAILY JOUBNAL, MONDAY MAY 28; r---- j

THE REBEL PRESS. General Buell. That great patnot and soldier, General Buell, -who was bo shamefully villified by the tools of old Abe Lincoln for his humanity as a soldier, for his noble qualities of f ij n ?eart , and because of his unflinching integrity and magnanimous bearing on the field and in camp, is in the city and is stopping at the Sher wood House. Jbew soldiers have retired from the volunteer army of the United States more eenerallv rf sner:!. ed lhan General Buell. When the ,y bounds of hell fell upon his track, und ' he -was 'removed from an important command, the sentiment of the nation was for the tried soldier and patriot. . Buell and McClellan were both outraged for the same ends. They were soldiers, and not political scapegoats for others, and were not suited to the. purposes of the butchers at Washington, who supplied their stalls with the human flesh of American white soldiers. Long "life to Gen, Buell! Evansville Courier, 25th, v .t fx m, ,uri . j ' . j The Kichmond Examiner of the 10th was draped in mourning, and the freatest portion of its reading matte evoted to a history of the military r career and, untimely death of the noetic and lamented Stonewall Jackson, a tribute of respect at once touching. and appropriate. iNo man, living jor dead, is more worthy of the reverence and affection of the citizens of Virl gmia, or the veneration of the AmerK jican people. EvaneifiUe, Courier. 24fcr I JTionvthe Richmond (Va.) Enquirer, 22d. Southern Representation.' j The matter at issue between the diffe'rent branches of the Kepublicanl " 1 party, does not cover the whole ques tion of peace and reconstruction. It is but preliminary. It has indeed to be decided, but it is not the end. The struggle now is, whether the Southern States Bhall have representation at all The question behind that, and which, will come next, and which gives the r; J firsts its i only importance is, whether they shall have an honest representation. We call this to mind at this time not to embarrass the fight in its present phase, but that the vital point in controversy may not be sacrificed to the preliminary. The Radicals are ? making yeryj bold battle. i They Care not for advantage of position, but contend, at all hazards, for everv inch of

grunu. Aney reius represeniation, eyea when, such thiiigs as' Jlanara " crouon lit the - dust at their feet, and 5" beg to be "admitted to vote asi they may order. They deny representation , downright and absolutely, and will not " admit even our Bpaniels.,t ' i In opposing this outrage, it is common for the adversaries of the Radi- ' veals make concessions which would render representation'not worth to us the struggle. It would be like the horse that was hard to catch, and when caught, was good for nothing. To concede the broad construction t which is given to the authority ;-of. the . two Houses' to judge of the qualification -of their members to concede that Congress may establish what testoaths it pleases, is to make representation dependent on the will of the majority, which is virtually to deny it altogether AA'right held at sufferance is no right. The only representation which is woTth the name, and the ' only repreeentation- in -which the South has any interest.': is one which, would recocr-

j mi .- ? . nize the constitutional tests alone. If "; the friends of the Constitution and of justice, peace and harmony, suppose ji would be. ay,boon to the Southern people to secure them the privilege of being' represented , by such "men as Vv Calvm FeDT)er and ; Ward well and ;(Boots 'and Underwood, they are veryl ,..muamistaKen. it wouia ne much Xi better, for example, that Massachur setts should have an additional delegate man to give to us sucn a one as Underwood, who would vote as Massachusetts ordered, and claim to be a l- Virginian oniy mat ne mignt siaD us c; with better eflect. If men who hate ns must go to Congress, let them not go from among us. . Far better to be anrepresented than misrepresented. ; We trust, therefore, that what is at !;:;last the "vital question, will not be yielded for the mere name - of, victory .;;.in 1 : the n preliminary contest. The '. , South ; at least can be no party to its own-destruction. We want no mocking representation ; but one that conforms with., the nature of representative government and the spirit of our . institutions. ' " 1 " " ' " The New York , Evening iPost, in some remarks on Stevens Obstruction r Project, has very sound views of the effect of proscriptions on the restoration of friendly sentiments. It says: " As for the third seel .on which disfranchises the mass of the Southern people xuxtil after 1870, we believe it is condemned v., by all judicious men. It is very doubtful if it- could (rain the assent of a sufficient ... number of states; if it did, we should need at every sftlection an army in every Southern State, and a company of soldiers aV f.; every poll, to keep the peace; and month t , toy month bitterness and hatred would row in the country, instead of charity and e??$ And wat ood would be accomK . pJished, to counterbalance all the evils Li's ynich mast be plain to every mind? After - ?Surel? ttie disfrancnisea mUlions of i . ; .-Wie Bo tli , filled with hatred, more firmly . united than ever before by their common t',. exclusion, more determined than ever in a.uiei,r hostility., to the Union party, and to - tie.loyaj man of the country, would come in, and thereafter vote in a body for every measure unpalatable-to Union men and injurious to the Union.' In fonr years we shall have cnade the South all but nnani- . - - moos against ns ; and tLat without secure " " ing any advantage to the country." It would require but little reflection . to convince a man capable of writing ' the above, that proscription Irom the office would be as, irritating and opVoressive as proscrintion at the olls. What avails the privilege of voting, if it is restricted in its choice almost

to prohibition? It would 'be a mock

cry and an insult, and would be so re

garded. .Let the Worth not -stick' in the bark.-' It is impossible to do and not to do at the same time. They cannot reconstruct and not reconstruct. They cannot have peace and prosecute war.' The -true course is a plaia one : It is only to recognize the triumph of the declaration on which tbey went to war, that the - States are in the Union and if in, entitled to the benefits oi its fundamental law, 7 ' Henderson, Ky. We nnd m the Louisville Journal a very interesting letter, giving a .rosy description- of the prospects of that really pleasantly situated little towri. We copy all the paragraphs in which our readers can feel an interest: f t in a line of latitude with Sqttillace in Naples and Athens in - Greece, the citizens of Henderson enjoy a mild sa- ' lUDrioua clime, .wnere tne journal oi health rerwrts fewer, deaths1 and less sickness than any city of its population in the United States. And, notwithstanding this fact in reerard to health, so. thoroughly persuaded are many thate Henderson's growth is to" De rapid ana sne to Deeome an aver-, age city in the Union, five intelligent and genteel-looking physicians have located here within, two months. The country surrounding Is" gently undulating, presenting picturesque landscapes of forests and . meadows "and 1 limpid brooks; and the, various bird oi the suburban goves are constantly emulating the" notes and melodies of the beautiful and superior ladies with in the city, where their 'lovely voices and mellifluous, songs so oft i remind the devetee ot music that bwitzerlan is not the only land where Jennie T ? 1 . . 1 r 1 ' fl I 'll ( 1 r lands and Marie Taskatts ' may: be heard to lead the symphony: ' ' S X Hedersod s is already - the largest stemming tobacco market in the world, and if Germans and other cultivators of grapes will just come . where they are cordially invited, this can be made one of the most ' profitable graperegions on the. face of the earth. iThe soil is arenaceous, and is well adapted to the nature of the vine, spontaneous and most exuberant specimens of nature's favoritism to the vine may be found in any of the neighboring woodlands where care has never in any waybeenbestowed.fi ; ; And Mr. Sebree, President of the Nashville and Henderson Railroad, has notified the stockholders that the i j i - . oonus wflicn nave .so long peen in England the great clog to completion have been obtained, and that the road will be worked and opened for transportation and travel at the earliest possible date : So much for the vim of the, legislation .last winter, which threatened to sell the road if the present stockholders remained idle and indifferent as to" its finished' construction until Borne day in" June next '-An effectual threat: be it said to the honor of our noble Legislature! . With the : completion of the road, the inexhaustible beds of coal through which it runs will be worked and fuel brought to market cheaper than has been sold any where on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers for many long years. And as goods of every def scription can be shipped to 'Henderison from the East ' just as cheap as to EvansvDle, why can" they, and will they not be sold at just as low prices here as there? The day the railroad depot, is finished in this city,, which will not certainly be later than next October, all the wholesale purchasers of dry , goods s and other articles demanded in the back or ' interior counties of this Stateso long the supporters of merchants in Evansville, Indiana will be made' in Henderson There is now but one hardware store in this - city, , and. four -could be handsomely supported 'at the fcompletion of the railroad. p A number ot capitalists , here aire about, commencing the erection of , largej business houses, and ; then : the . wholesale merchant can commence his sales here and the capitalist realize a handsome percentage on. his building nipney. '- So keen is the appreciation of these encouraging facts by some of the merchants in Evansville, that one firm there ha3 purchased a fine business lot on Cheap Sale Avenue with the view to build a large storehouse, and commence; business here at ,the earliest possible day. With gas to illuminate our beautiful streets and carry its brightness into the chambers of the homesteads ) connecting at Owensboro with a telegraph to bring the latest and most interesting and important news from all directions: and :with the shrill whistje of the cars to announce the railroad done, connecting us with the splendid and energetic city of Nashville directly, why may Henderson not be a handsome and attractive city?
