Tlic Southern Clergy.
A venerable clergyman at the South, gives
the following testimony in regard to tne feelings of his in Igbbors and brethren in the ministry. As he states at the close, his remarks were not designed for publication; but It is so seldom wo hear from an octogenarian in the ministry, and there is such an excellent spirit in his letter, that we can not withhold his
words of wisdom from our readers: A roi si a County, Ya., November li>, 1867 May 1 add a few lines In respect to my own
course ami that of Presbyterian ministers in the South. I belong to that cburch--am now in my eightieth year, and have been more than forty years a member of the synod of Virginia, and for over thirty years Its stated clerk. I have never failed to attend all the meetings of the judicatories, untoes when prevented by sicknc'is. I therefore claim to be well acquainted wiih the Presbyterian clergy, at least of Virginia. Now. I say, I think no class of men had less agency in bringing about the so-called rebellion. During the whole time of the war and since, I have heard no 'political sermon, or one In which party politics was introduced. I never preached such a sermon, and when 1 have refered to passing events, it was only to gain attention and illustrate some rejlgtous truth or doctrine
‘ po-
I greatly approve of the views you take of pi litleal preaching, and am sorry It prevailed s at the North, because under It spiritual religion must decline. I think, we (the Southern

They'/ a rov,, cf certatn legislation by Congress, sec ms a majority at the North

Letter from oencrftl T.Ewing, Jr. Washington, November 10, 1867. Dear Colon*!.: I have your lettter of the 10th instant, advising me of the formation of urant clubs by many of our comrades in Kansas, and asking my opinion of the movement I earnestly want.to be In accord with the great part of my Kansas and army iriends; and still hope to unite with them in supporting General Grant for President. But I want first to know whether he approves of the reconstruction measures; for, if he does, I can not support him. I regard them as mischievous; begot of revenge, misdirected philanthropy, and a lust of power. I would as soon expect to see a bouse stand on the crater of a living volcano, as a State, where whites and blacks, being nearly equal in numbers, the whites are proscribed and the blacks made rulers. Such a government can not long have the heartfelt sympathy of any large body of white men any wrere. Blood is thicker than water, and Northern whites will sympathize with Southern whites In tbetr struggle to shake off the incubus of negro rule. If thsre were no prejudice of race to affect their action, the Northern people would still refuse to reproduce In ten States of the Union Hayti or San Domingo, or any other government and civilization which the negro race has established since the flood. To punish the Southern whites for fbelr treason, the Northern people might possibly, for a time, be willing to affiict them with such governments; but self-interest forbids it. It were like the fabled war of the belly and the members. The North alreadv groans under

In the House of Commons, last night, the debateonthe Abystinian war became quite animated, and was prolonged to a Into hour. A disposition was shown, in the discussion, to press the Ministry, on the ground that they had sent off the military and naval expedition t# Abyssinia on the sole advice of General Robert Napier, its commander, without obtaining the sanction of .Parliament, but the Government madeja satisfactory defence of the action,and at the conclusion of the debate of the supply of £2,000,000 required by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to meet tbe expense of tbe war was voted. Dispatches from the Abyssinian expedition say that large supplies of volunteers have been offered to the British commander.

This will not be construed to prevent r?-en-llstment in their regiments of men who may be discharged by the expiration of their term of service.

The corner stone of tbe Young Men’s Christian Association i^all, on the corner of Ninth and D streets, was laid to-day. General Howard presided, and Chief Justice Chase assisted In the ceremonies. He first deposited in the cavity of tbe stone a copy of the Bible, say lug it was a great corner stone of religious hope and faith. Next was a copy of tbe Constitution of the United States which, be iw> marked, was the great corner stone of our political InstiraUops, and he placed it la the receptacle, to lie In harmony with that great constitution of religious liberty already deposited. Senators Freliugbuysen, Wilson and others delivered addmmes. Several life members, including President Johnson and Chief Justice Chase, were made by a subscription of thirty dollars lor each member. Some proposed to make General Grant a life member, and subscribed five dollars for that purpose, when Chief Justice Chase claimed the privilege of subscribing the remaining fivesixths.

Committee on Ways and Means agreed Unanimously to-day,to report a bilf for the repeal of the cotton tax. No bill has been agreed on or time fixed for tbe repeal, but a bill will be reported for that purpose on Monday or Tues-

Price, of Iowa; Higbee, of California; Donnelly, of Minnesota; Sidney Clarke, of Kansas; Mallory, of Oregon; Amis, of Massachusetts; Covode, of Pennsylvania; Praia, of New York: Van Trump, of Ohio. General Butler In a speech In the House today, suggested that if Congress should enact that all national bond bills which find their way Into the treasury, should be retained end cancelled, and legal tender notea to the same amount issued, the whole national bank currency would be withdrawn from circulation In four or live months, er Its plaee supplied wrth greenbacks. This could be done wttbouf Increasing tbe circulation, and would save between twenty and thirty millions, paid on bonds, which are deposited to secure nation si
bsnk currency.
He believed, however, the country could besr tboussnds of millions of circulstion. If tbst should prove st sny time redundant, then that portion of It which Is not needed for business purposes would be brought to the Treasury aad exchanged for bonds and when more currency became needed tbe bonds would ho brought back and exchanged for currency; ibis currency to be In the legs! tender currency of tbe Government. This would ensble toe Government to reduce the Interest bearing debt fifteen bundaud millions, twelye hundred millions of which would be In 5-20’s.

Anthony, tn a letter to the Democratic Union Conventum, last evening, declined the nomination for m.-tvor in favor of Mr. Hoffman. The convention afterwards indorsed Mr. Hoffman. The Tribune’s Washington special says the State Department has been for some time past endeavoring to negotiate for tbe purchase of some of the Danish West India Islands. It is now stated that s>t. Thomas and St. Johns Islands have been bought, subject to the approval of the United States Senate to ascertain the sentiments of tbe inhabitants relative to the contemplated change from the Danish to the United States Government. The Rev. Mr. Hawley was commissioned to proceed there sometime ago. His mission iras very satisfactory. The vote of tbe House on the resolution instructing the committee on banka and hanking to report a bill providing lor tbe withdrawal ot the national bank currency, and substituting therefor, greenbacks, is regarded as very significant of the-temper of the House. Tbe Ways and Means Committee intend to take up at an early day, the question of contraction and report in accordance with the resolution referred to them to- lay. They will also take up the question of repealing the cotton tax. Tbe wool interests are said to be strongly opposed to the repeal of this tax as it will materially interfere with tbe production of wool. The Judiciary Committee of the House will, at their next session, take up the bill referred to them, providing for the suspension of the President pending impeachment. Tbe bill is a general one in its character, and it is the opinion of many of the Senators and members that it is necessary that some legislation should be adopted explanatory of the Constitution of tbe United States on the subject. It is doubtful if the committee report favorably on the
bill.

From the Tuscola, Illinois, Journal. A Visit to tbo Borne and Grave of Abraham Uinceln’s Father. Spending a day last week in the village of Farmington, in the southeast part of Coles county, where 1 had gone to assist father E. Kln'gsberry in a series of meetings, 1 learned that 1 was In the neighborhood m which the father of Abrabam Lincoln had lived and now lies buried, and where bis widow, the Pretident’s stepmother, still lives; and availing myself of tbe opportunity, 1 visited both the grave and home. And at your readers are intefested in everything connected with Abrabam Lincoln. I propose to furnish you with some of my observations. The father of this great man II ■ burled about one mile west from the viUage, in a beautiful secluded spot, on the Cottonwood. The position tsja lovely one, or might be, if properly attended to; but that it is not at the
pin tent.
t'be grave itself is overgrown with weeds and briars, and unmarked by anything in the shape of a timbstone. A stranger could never identify it. Even Colonel Ad am*, of Farmington, who piloted me out, could net go directly to It. But after looking around a little, he pieked up, at the head of tbe middle one of three old neglected graves, a piece of an old clapboard the size of your two hands, with the letters T. L., cut on it, and assured me that that was the grave of old Uncle Tommy Lincoln, tbe father of our late President. These tetters seem to have been cut on this piece cf board, by the President’s own band, »t tbe time of his last visit to the grave, just before starting on that memorable journey to Washington, to enter upon his dudes as President of the United States. During that visit the President ordered—and paid for—a suitable monument for the grave of his father. But the man who was to attend i^omn after enlisting in the Union army, u mlimL. sod the work consequently has never been attended to, and probably never will be, unless the friends of this great man take the matter in band and put up the monument, and thus carry out this last cherished wish of our murdered President—

whose care for u% tbe living, was so great that he seems to have thought no more about
the graves of hi* own buried dead. Might not some good man do himself an honor by carrying out this wish of the President—to erect a suitable monument over this grave— such a£ would be worthy tbe honored lather of the greatest and best men ? From tbe grave we went about a mile south of the village to the old home in which Uncle Tommy Lincoln lived andtdied, and which is stU the home of his widow. The house is a one story log cabin with two rooms, or rather it is two loe cabins joined together, evidently built at different times. Tbe house is old, has a clapboard roof, and is somewhat out of repair. It wa*, however, built (as I was informed) by Abraham Lincoln’s fathers own hands, and Is the house in w hich he lived and died—and for that reason should be cherished—though Abraham himself never lived in it, he having commenced the practice of law at Springfield before the family moved to that locality. Annt Sally Lincoln, as the villagers call her, the President’s stepmother, is eighty-fonr years of age, and quite feeble. A few years ago she had a limb broken, and it is still at ti mes very paintul, making it necessary for her to keep her bed a good portion of the time. She was not up during our visit. She is a plain, unsophisticated old lady, with a frank,open countenance, a warm heart, full of kindness toward others, tall and slender, and. In many respects, very much like* the President—enough to be his own mother. And, as be was but nine years of age at the time of her marriage with his lather, it is not improbable that she had much to do inform-
ing his character.
Abraham was evidently her idol; she speaks of him still as her “good boy,” and with much feeling said, “He ways always a good boy—always wanted to do just as I wanted him.” As further proof of ms excellent character as a boy, she added. “He and his step brother never quarreled out once, and

From the Carlinvdle, Illinois, Spectator. An Elopement — An Illinois Coaple married in St. Louis — Pursuit ot ttooGnilty Ptalr—THe YY ronged Jlmm Sbot and Wounded. One day, during the early part of August, a gay and brilliant party might have been seen emerging from one of tbe most fashionable and aristocratic churches in St. Louis. The nuptual rights had been concluded by which the gallant Major A. IV. Edwards and the lovely and accomplished Julia Howard were, made one. All promised joy and happiness; the future appeared to wear the tints ot the most cerulean hue. The bridegroom was one of the most popular and successful editors in the State, while the bride was beautiful and wealthy—the only daughter of a gentleman who did good service for the Union as commander of a brigade daring the rebellion. What more could be desired ? Many were the congratulations showered upon the happy sorts of good fortuae were them by the wedding guests. After a short, but very pleasant tour, the Major conducted his fair bride to his spacious and well arranged mansion in Cariinville, where they dwelt together in ail apparent
happiness.
Yielding to ths pressing solicitations of hfs brother editors throughout the State, the Major bade, as he thought, a brief farewell to his young wife, and accompanied us upon the Rocky Mountain exenrsion. During the trip, as we all know, he was the life and soul of the whole party—his jokes were side splitting, his laugh the loudest and his songs the gayest and jotiiest. Little did he know of the woe and misery in store for him; that the rosy skies of peace were soon to be overshadowed by the dark clouds of despair. The journey being ended, the. Major hastened home on wings of love. Bright visions of a happy home and lovely wife cheered him on the way. Saturday evening last, as the
sombre shadows of twilight were gathering o’er forest and prairie, the Major landed at
