Tire I.afayette Journal lu attempting a damaging criticism upon that part of tin speed of Mr. Hendricks, at the eighth of January convention, which discusses .the financial situation, roaches the following con-
clusion:
“Tho D^micratlc proposition la not to pav In appreciated currency, or in currency of equal value to that which the bonds were purchased with, but in a watered, depreciated currency. Argueltusyou may, state it as you may, the payment of the (live-twenties by the issue rf more currency, is downright repudiation. It is contrary to law, contrary to good public policy, contrary to the maxims of moral honesty. It is a violation of a contract express and Implied. We care not from whom the proposition comes, it is miachlevoua and essentially worng, and, if realized In legislation, will bring ruin to trade, greater poverty to tbe poor, greater insecurity to the rich, and a lesslnlng of public credit disastrous to tbe
nation.”
The Democracv have made no such proposition. Mr. 1’ENDLKTON is regarded as representing tbe Democratic idea upon the public debt question. In his speeches upon the subject during the canvass in Ohio last year, he demonstrated how tbe public debt could be paid wlthia a few years wlthoutlnereaslngtbe currency a dollar or adding a dollar to taxation, end In no speech has he advocated the In-
crease of either.
Now what is the Democratic proposition, and we must t ike the authorized expression of the party to ascertain what It Is. The Democracy of Indiana, at the State convention on the eighth of J uiuarv, thus declared: B That we are in f»Vor of the payment of th.-Government bonds In treasury notes, commonly called ‘‘gnenhacks," expressly made payable In gold by law) at the earliest pracilcablu period. Does this mean to pay in “ a watered or do predated cufcency?” If the Journal Insists that such la UH> D mocratlc proposition, how stands its own party friends! The Marlon County Kopublican Coavcntion took the position : , “That the bonds and otb“r obligations of the General Government which do n°‘ expressly stipulate for a payment in coin on their face should be paid at their earliest mtturlty In legal money.” This the Journal, according to its Idea ot the obligations of the Government, might regard os “downright repudiation,” for it professes to p»y all bonds which do not expressly stipulate for a payment In coin on their face, that they should be paid in greenbacks as they became redeemable, Tbe Randolph County Republican Convention resolved as follow*: "Wo protest that tho bondholder* have no rights than those denominated In the bond-; and those bonds payable by Isw n gold wo will so pay, slid those payable in lawful currcncy we will pay in And the Allen county Republican convention adopted very nearly the phraseology of the Democratic Btatc Convention. It. netolvtd. That the bonds and other obligations of the General Governmont which do not expressly stipulate for a payment in coin on their face, should bo paid at as early a day as practicable in legal money. Does this mean to pay tho currency dstt “In ' a watered, depreciated currency?” Both houses of Congress have passed bills against the further aontraction of the currency—the present “depreciated” currency. And wiih this currency the State of Indiana, as other States are likewise doing, Is paying tho interost upon her public debt contracted upon a gold basis and likewise the debt Itself. Is not this as much “downright repudiation,” in fact more so, than for the United State. to pay her obligation, con. traded upon an Inflated currency basis, just as Indiana and other States are paying their gold Indebtedness ? Wo take Ihe broad ground that a currency which the government declares to be sufllclent for the payment (rf private debts should be sufficient for tho payment of public debts, and wo can not appreciate tbe morality, or the public policy, which makes a distinction between public and private creditors. Except tho interest upon the public debt and tbo salaries of diplomatic representatives, the Government pays her creditors and employes in a depreciated currency. Even the Unanco committee of the Senate, a majority of whom are Republican", Introduced a bill funding the public debt at a less rate of Interest than the bonds call for. Is not *hls “down-right repudiation.” “a violation of a contract expressed and implied.” The proposition of the Republics Senator from Missouri is to reduce the interext to three per cent., which amounts in effect to a repudiation of one-half ol the debt. If, as sug* gested, the debt m made perpetual. But we hear of no denunclatlous from the Republican press tu regard to the immorality of this uownrlght repudiation. Ii the Journal Is so sensitive in regard to the public faith the m m oral honesty ” of the General Gavernment, why does H not display some little regard for t_ •* moral honesty,” tho plighted faith, of Its own State? Indiana Is now paying a debt compromised at fifty cents on a dollar, In greenbacks worth about sixty cents on the dollar. Why does not our moral Republican cotemporary howl over this violation of law, and tho maxims of moral honesty ? Are the obligations of Indlana any more sacred than those of tbe United States? If greenbacks are good enough to pay tbo public debt of Indiana contracted upon a gold bAsls, they ere certainly good enough to pay A debt contracted In kind by
the United States.
L«»lt to the Senate. I UBA.tT'A The New York Tine*, a Republican organ, has hopes that tbe i yUbltcan Senate will stay tbe revolutionary legislation of the House. In former days, when It was graced by Clay, Webster, Calhoun end Button, end statesmen of the stature of thoee political giants, tbo Senate wit conservative, and the hasty, Inooesldorate or ancooetltuttonal legislation of the popular branch of Congress was carefully reviewed by the more considerate end cautious body. Tbe T.mtt Is right in saying that tbe political measu.ee adopted by the House are “calculated by their character to startle the fears and apprehensions of the country” and that they “have produced this effect.” And tt remarks that “the utter abolition of tho local governments in the Southern States, the virtual dopoeltion of the President from a portion of the constitutional functions of his office, and the Instalment of an absolute dictator In his stead, the restriction of the powers of the Supreme Court end tbo attempt to coerce Its decisions In spedflo oases, are measures not calculated to calm the public miud, or augment public coufltlcnce In tbo party which makes INeif responsible for
them.”
Suppose tho Senate should concur tn tho mcasnres adopted by the House, as It is probable that it will, for both bodies seem to be Influenced by a similar spirit, will papers like the New York Times apologize, justify and sustain legislation which they now regard with apprehension and look upon as dangers which not only overhang the party, but the country? We are fearful that the Republican Senate will be looked to in vain lor any conservative action. Tbe radical car Is upon tbe track and the radicaltam of Congress ts Us impelling power. And when the most conservative members of the Senate yield to tbe Impulses, tho passions and the party insanity which control tbo Houae, what else can we expect than that tho Senate will confirm the obnoxious party measures which tho House Inaugurates and adopts? There is no hope that Congress will heed tho suggestions of the Timet and kindred prinU In regard to tbe dangers wbteh now l.'Cjit tbe Government, apprehensions which wo fear are too well grounded, but the rebuke and condemnation which that paper administers to the radical portion of the National Legislature may arouse thinking Republicans, who can nee above partisan prejudice", to a realizing sense nf the situation. Referring to the recent political iegUlalion of
Congress,tbe Times remarks:
“What is the necessity for them—for certainly ills only in some extreme emergency that such measures as these could be deemed wise or even tolerable? The strongly urges them upon public favor; will It be good enough to tell us why .they are required? Whatcrisls in our national affairs demands resort to remedies so extreme and desperate as these? While tbe war was raging-whllo a ^rebellion of formidable proportions and power menaced our Government. with overthrow, mauy things were done for which the plea of necessity was urged and admittedtor then the plea was at least Intelligible. Rut what does it mean now? In what quarter does any such imperative necessity for extreme measures exist? The rebellion is over. The Government is safe. No armed bostllity threatens it with overthrow. No public peril overbangsthe nation which can only be averted by tbo extremest tnea-tirc* which desper-
ate States ever dream of resorting to.
“And without seme such necessity, the Republican party can not vindicate itself before the people, or retain the power which, without suflb lent Warrant, they thus assert and exercise. 'Bold’ meusures are tolerated by the people when tbe people deem th m neces-sary-la presence of some greet emetgrncy— though even then they do not pass nuchallodged. But they are f»'al to any party that resort to them wlUiot , being able to demonstrate tbelr i B-entUI aud inevitable necessity. •• Tbe Republican party is tempting fate. If It is overthrown now it ts overthrown forever By the extreme ground it threatens to take, it is iillenating from its confidence and support thousands and tens of thousands who, tn every State, have sustained its fortunes tiecause they saw in Ita success the only conditions of a permanent, free and constitutional ublio Its action now Is prompting qurs-

£9*Tho special election fjr Congressman In the Eight District of Ohio took place yesterday. In regard to tbo probable result end the character of tbo canvass, the Cluclunatl Commercial thus oomments: Tbe chances seem to favor the success of General llcitty, the Ripublicin caudldate, but tbere is sufficient doubt ahiut It to make the contest ope of great Interest. General Hays carried tbe dlstriet by lesa than three hundred majority. Colonel Burns, tho Djmocratlc candidate, was a “war Democrat.” and has not the cordial support oftbeparticu Inr friends of Mr. Vallamllgbara. General Beatty bos avowed biroseil in substantial agreement with Ben Butler, Tbad. Hteveus and George H. Pendleton on tbe greenback question. So it happens that the Usuis are a little mixed.
Officers and soldiers are positively prohibited from enticing slaves to lea their masters. * * It ts enjoined on
commanders to see that this order is executed strictly under Ihelr own direction. The dc. tnoralizstioa of troops consequent upon being left to execute lewe In their own way,

GItANT'3 POLITICS—HE VOTED FOB DOUGLAS.
From the World, July 28,1803.
The Galena, Illinois, Advertiser settles tbe vexed question as to General Grant’s political etatus. Whllo In tbe army he never voted, but after he settled In Galena he declared himself a Democrat, and voted la 1300 for Stephen A. Douglas for Preiideut. It should be uuderstood that It require! a good deal of moral courage for e business msn in Northern Illinois to acknowledge himself a Democrat. That section of the country is more intensely and blgotedly abolition than even Massacha-cUs or tbe Western Reserve. General Grant does not trouble himself much about political organizations. * ON IOWA SOLDIERS VOTING. Headqu rs Dep’toftiik Tennessee,) YiCkruuru, Miss., Aug. 4, istKf. i

SIR: Your letter of tbe 0th of July, asking If citizens of tbe State of Iowa will be allowed to visit this srmy sad distribute tickets when the election U held for soldiers to vote, etc., Is just received, in reply 1 will stain tbst loyal citizens of Northern States will be allowed to visit tbo troops from their States at any time. Electioneering, or any other course calculated to arouse discordant feelings,
xoill be prohibited.
The volunteer soldiers of the army will be allowed to hold an election, if the law gives them tbe right to vote, end no power shall prevent them from voting the ticket of their
choice.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant, II. 8. Grant, Major General. HE WAS “NEVER AN ALTI-8LAVERV MAN.” Senator Wilson, in a speech before the American Anti-Slavery Society, at their third d»cade anniversary, In Philadelphia, In December, IHttfl, quoted the following extract from a letter written by General Grant to Hon. K B. Waahburoe. I have never been an anti-slavery msn, but l try to Judge Justly of wbttlsee. I mtde up iu> mind when this wsr commenced that tbe North and South could only live together lo pcttoe as one nation, and they could only be one nation by being e freo nation. Slavery, the rorner stone of the so-eallad Confederacy, Is knocked out, and it will take more mon to keep Muck men alaves than to put down the rebellion. Much as I desire peace, I sm opposed to any peace until tbe question of slavery is forever settled. TERMS OK GENERAL LEE’S SURRENDER. Ai pomattox court House, April 9,1863, General R. E- L’t, Commanding Confederate States Army: • * • 1 he idU :ers to give their Indivldu-
repiiuno its action now is prompting question", »s tn lt» motives and character, to which It will be found d fficull tu give clear and sat-
isfactory replies.”
Prophetic MoncusiKO. Tho New York Uerald, which tho radicals are exceedingly fond of quoting as authority waen It suits .tbolr purpose, gives utterance tn the following truthful sentiments. More wisdom was never contained in an equal num-
ber of lines:
“Tbo nomination of Grant, blackened with tho negro policy of tho radical faction and loaded down with revolutionary laws, will be of no greater avail to the party than would the nomln'itlon ot Ben Butler or Wendell Phillips. The people of tho North will refuse to reduce ten States of the Union to a condition of Africon b»rharbirl«ra and to make the negro tho social equal of the white man, no matter what candidate tbe party may put forward to dl-tract public attention from tbe real Issue involved in the election. Tbe Northern Stales will cast their electoral votes against nn infamous policy and not for an Individual. While the Ameilcan prople honor Grant as a soldier, they will not consent that be shall be used as on instrument to enable tbe radicals toovertbrow a republican form of government, or to force tbe political supremacy of tbo negro upon tbe nation, if be should not sooner sink under the load heaped upon him by the radical Congress he would be defeated at the polls by an overxchelming majority. Tbe election would be only a repetition ot the Scott campaign, and the result would be as disastrous for tbe hero of tbo Wilderness as it was for the hero of Lundy’s Lane. Tht> verdict of the people next fall will assuredly bo rendered against tbe negro reconstruction policy of Congress, and will sweep from power every vestige of radi cailsm and every individual who may auffer himself to bo drawn within Us poisonous in-
fluence.”
Tbe Voice of thru It it in Lincoln—The Kadirnls “Justifying Uevolution.” Said President Abraham Lincoln in bis Inaugural address: “If, by tbe mere force of numbers, a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written constituiioaal right, it might, In a moral view, Justify revolution—certainly would If such a right were a vital one.” Is this not precisely what tbe radicals la Congress are doing—“Justlfj tng revolution” If AnRAHAM Lincoln was a man of truth? Again, later, in one of his messages to Congress, be thus set forth as tbe representative and exponent of the Rep.. Oilcan party what would follow the luppresslon of the rebellion: Lost tbere be some uneeHnexs tn the mlnd« of candid men as to what ts to t>o the course ■f tho Government toward" the Southern States alter the rebellion sh ill have been suppressed. the Executive deem* tt proper to Say that tt will be his purpose, then as ever, to be guided by the Constitution and laws, and that he probably will h-ve no different understanding > f the pov ,i> nd duties of the Federal Government rclailve to tbe rights of the States and tbe people, under the Constitution, than that expressed In the inaugural address. He desires to preserve the Govornment, that It may be administered :or all, as if tea* administered by the men who made it. Loyal cttiz- a* h ave a right to claim this of their Government; and the Government has no right to withhold or neglect it. Do not Republicans—“candid men,” as Mr. Lincoln says—see that tbe radical party of to-day is no more like tbo psrty which elected ami re-elected Lincoln than white is like black ?
Daniel Wx-baier’a Proplicty. This it an appropriate time to call to mind Daniel Webster's famous prophecy, su alien quoted aa a warning In years peat: “If these fanatics and abolitionists ever get power Into their hands, they' will override tbe Constitution, sat the Supreme Court at defiance, change aud make laws to suit themselves, and finally, tbey will bankrupt the country and deluge It with blood.” Was ever prophesy more true than this? Is not Its almost final fulfillment enough to rouse tbe people to e tense of tbe dengen which (urround them?
Tho Wamiati who Heeomca ts Rian—A Verification of the SUorr* A short time since we copied from the La Croaie Democrat a cirlous article oa the above subject. The case Is proved to have been uu actual occurrence ee was therein stated, and has become a matter of scientific loterest. The following note which we find la the Springfield, ( Massachusetts,) Republican of tho 22, throws further light upon tbe cate: Northampton, January 21. To the Editor of ths Republican: In your paper of Monday I observed an •arilcls headed “A Woman Broomes a Man,” nnd credited to “Brick” Pomeroy of the La Crosse, ( Wisconsin,) Democrat, The article lx true, with one important qualification, i. e . "ho or bo bad no child by Mr. Powtll, and they separated by mutual content. Afterwards an operation was performed by a phv* stclan for mnirurmalton and he became perfectly developsd—the supposed womsn became a man. My employer has been well acquainted with both parlies for the last twelve years, as he “ sided lu their neighborhood previous to coming East, two years ago. The little addition of the child by the first marriage made the story incredible; but aside f.nm that It la strictly true, and entitled to belief. _ J. W. A Hudlcwl nuggoatlwn, Tbe Cinclnuatl Commercial suggests to Congress tbo propriety of appointing a commission of learood pundits to cOdify tbe existing reconstruction lews. A code would doubtless be as Instructive to e majority ol tbe members of Congress as to a majority of tbe people, who have lost tbe connection of the head with the succeeding convolutions of tbe tall.
of the Honorable Secretary of War, I left Washington City on the twenty-seventh of lest month for tbe purpose of miking a tour of Inspection through oome of the Southern States, or States lately In rebellion, and to see what changes were necessary to be mode in the disposition of the military forces oi tbe country; Aoto these fortts could be reduced and expenses curtailed, etc ; and to learn, os far as possible, the feelings and Intcntiona of the citizens of those States toward the General Government. * * Both In traveling and while stopping, I saw much and conversed ireely with tbe citizens of those Slates, as well as wltn officers of tbe army who have been stationed among them. The following are the conclusions come to by me: I am satisfied that the mass of thinking men of the South accept the present • tustion of affairs In good filth. The questions which have hitherto divided tbe souttments of the people of the two sections—slavery and States’ rights, or the right of a State to secede from tbe Union — they regard as having been settled forever br. the highest tribxmat—arms-that man <p ui retort to. I waa pleased to learn from me leading men whom I met that tbey not only accepted the decision arrived at as flual, but, now that the smoke of battle hoe clean d sway and time has been given for reflection, that this decision has been a fortunate one for the whole country, they receiving like benefit* from It with those who o >posed them lu the field aud In council. * * There is such universal acquiescence in the awhorlty of the General Governxne-U throxtghout the portions of the C juntry visited by me. that the mere presence^ of a military force, without rtgard lo numbers, is sufficient to maintain order. The good of the country and economy require that tbe torce kept in the interior, where there are freed men, (elsewhere in the Southern States than at ports upon the sea coast no force i* necessary), should all be white troopa. The reaaon* for this are obvious, without mentioning any of them. The presence of black troopa, lately slaves, demoralizes labor, both by their advice a d by furnishing In their camps a resort for freedmen lor long distances around. White troops generally excite no opposition, and therefore a small number of these can maintain order in a given district. * * My observations lesd me to tbe conclusion that the citizens of tbo Southern States are anxious to return la self-government within the Union as soon arpossible; that wbtio reconstructing they waul and require protection from tho Oovernmoat; that they are earnest In wishing to do what they think ia required by the Government, nof humiliating to them a* Citizen*, and that If such a

But I will not stop here. This Is too sorlous a matter for men with flippant toogne to pa*s over ae If there wae nothing tn It. The other day whan General Grant wax here, spending several hour* with him In free conversation upon this subject among others, he expressed to me the same opinion. Said I, “General Grant, I never quote private conversation without express permission. Am I permitted to state what I now state to you?” Said he, “Certainly, there Is no concealment on my part.” And he stated to me in the conversation that a considnrable portion of the troubles between the whites and tbe blacks that had already occurred was In consequence of the unwisj attempt to force negro suffrage in those States. He said further that if tho Federal Government were to attempt to do (t and onfores It, tt would undoubtedly produce war between tbe two races there. 0B GENERAL GRANT ON AKAITRARY ARRE8T8.

THE IMPEACHMENT INVESTIGATION - GENKRAL GRANT'S TESTIMONY.
I From the Official Report.]
O. Dad you have any Interview with 1.1 on the subject ofgrantlno- .m . 1 11 h,n> to tbe nm nr I ’ sr,,on tho ”
l rtsld ® n V,ecu pied exactly the reverse (trottor?*. that they should be •hen th^tlffleWouK Iie ww “* d t0 know f tT 1 come when they should ^Si? l |h. fawa * '“ J bl “ not M ,0D & M tbey obeyed the lew* 4nd compiled with the etlpulattoa. That the ground that 1 took. d not also Insist that that applied job eeldler? A. Of course, it apFt. » ™ » every one who took the parole; but inai an* (e,. WBt not canvassed, except in cose °f eoF 0 f ti, e leader*. I claimed that, In aurr .adoring their ermie. end arms, they had ^ ,e what they could not ell of them have ^ een compelled to do, ee a portion of them could beve escaped. But they surrendered In constdtraMon of th* foot that tbey were to be exempt from trial ao long ts they conformed to tbo obligation, which they had taken; and tbey were entitled to that. Q. You looked on that In the nature of a parole, and held that tbey could only be tried when they violated that parole? A. Yee; that was the view I took of the question. Q. That la your view still? A. Yes, yes; unquestionably. Q. D.d you understand that to apply to General Lee? A. Certainly. Q. That was your undemanding of the arrangement which you mode with General Ler? A. That wee my understanding of an arrangement which I gave voluntarily. Gen. oral Leo’s army was the first to surrender, and I believed tbat with such terras ell the rebel armlet would surrender, and that we would thus avoid bushwhacking and a continuation of tbe war in a way that we could make very HUie progress with, having no organized armies to meet. Q. You considered that the like terms were given by General Sherman to the srmlea which surrendered to him? A. Yee, sir; to all tAe arm es that surrendered after that. Q. And you held that so lonf as they kept their parole end obeyed tbe laws they were not subject to be tried by courts? A. That was ray opinion. 1 will state here that I am not quite certain whether I am being tr-ed, or Who la being tiled, by the question* asked. Mr. Kltlrldge-I am not trying anybody; I am Inquiring In reference to the Vresident’s proclamation, and as lo tbe views he enter-
tained.
<£. Did you give those views to the President? A. I have stated those views to the Preuldent frequently, and, a* 1 have aaid, he disagreed with me in those views. He insisted on It mat the leader* mutt b* punished, end wanted to know, when the time would come wben thoae persons couId he tried. I tol$bim
when they violated their parole.
Q. Do vou consider that that applied to Jefferson I)tvl»? A. Mo, sir; he did not take
anv parole.
He did not surrender? A. No, air. It applied to no person who ws* captured—only to those who were paroled. k) Did the President insist tbat General Lee should be tried for trea-ea? A. He con-
tended for it.
G. And you claimed to him that the parol* which General Lr-e bad given would he violated in *ilcb trial ? A. I did. I insisted on it that General Lee would not have turrrendered hxs army, and g“eu up their arms, if he had supposed that after the surrender he was going to be tried for treason and banged. I thought we got a very good equivalent for the lives of a few leader* in getting tbelr arms and getting theihselvos under control, bound by their oaths to obey the laws. Tbat waa tbe consideration which 1 Insisted upon
we had received.
Q Do you recollect at any time urging the
President to go further In granting amnesty than he bad gone in bis proclamation? A. Just as I said before, I could not see any reason why tbe fact of * volunteer rising to the rank of general ahould exclude him any more than any other grade. And with reference to tbe twenty thousand dollar clause, I thought f Aaf a man’s success in this world was no reason for his.being (excluded from amnesty; but I recollect afterward* saying to the Pre*ident tbat I thought be was right In tbat particular, and 1 was wrong. In reference to the other, I never CHANGED MY
VIEWS
q. Did you not give your opinion tt all that amnesty ought to bs granted to thoae people to any extent? A I kn-w that itru* in favor of some proclamation ot the sort and perb*p* I may have said »o. it waa necceseary to do aomething to establish civil governments and civil lawa there, / wanted to see that done but I do not think l ever pretended to dictate
what ought to be done.
Q. Did you not advise? A. I do not think I ever did. I have given my opinion, perhaps, as to what has been done, but I do not think tsdvi">d snr course myself ary m-<re than / tens rerp anxfoit* loses something done to restore civil goremme -ts in those Mates Did you 001 give your opinion at

A N'ottbat 1 am aware of. / have occasionally recommended a person for amnesty I do nut recollect anv special interview that I have had ou the nut j -ct. I recollect speaking to him once or twice about the time he Issued his proclamation. I thought inv.el' st tbat time that there wax no reason why. because a person had risen to the rank of General, he should be excluded from amnesty any more than one who had failed to reach that rank 1 thought bis prut Um ktton alt right so lar as It excluded graduates from West Point or from the Naval Academy, or persons connected with tho Government, who had gone iato the rebclllsn; but I did not see any reason why a volunteer who happened to rise to the rank ot General should be excluded any more than a Colonel. I recollect speaking on that point. Neither did I see much reason for the twenty thousand dollar clause Those aro the only two points that I remember to have spoken of at that time. I afterwards, however, told him £.at I thought he was much neanr right on the twenty thou-
sand dollar clause than I was.
Q. Did you give your opinion to-the President that It would be better et that time to Issue a proclamation of general amnesty? A. No, sir; I never gave any such opinion aathat. By general amnaaty I mean universal am-
nesty.
(J. Did you give your ej lalon to tbe Preel-
ie pat Q v
tion by the President? A. General Lee forwarded hi* application for amnesty to me, snd I forwarded tt to tne /’resident, ap-
proved.
<J. Did you have anv conversation about It with the President? A. I do not recollect having anv conversation with him on thesiibJxet. I think it probable tbat I recommended verbally the pardon of General Johnston, immediately after the surrender of bis army, -on account of the address he delivered to his army. I thought it In such good tone and spirit tbat we should distinguish between him end other* who did not appear so well. I recollect speaking of that and sxymg that I should be glad if General Johnston received his pardon, on account of tbo manly manucr In which bnaddressed hie troops. (j Uy tbe chairman: You supposed hi* pardon would have a good effect ? a. Yes; I thought it would have a good effect* (j. By Mr. Marshall—I understand you to asy that you were very anxious, at the close of the war, that ctoft government should be established in some form as speedily as potsible, aud that you ao advised the President. A. I so stated frequently in his presence. II 1 wish loknuw whether, at or about the .Ime of the war being ended, you advised tbe President that It was, in yeur judgment, best to ex’end all llberalpolley toward th peop e of the .South, and to restore as speedily as passible the Iraternal relations which existed prior to tbo war between the two sections? A. I know that Immediately alter the close of the rebellion there was a very hne feeling manifested in the Aouth, and 1 thought we ought to take advantage of it ae soon as possible; but since that there has been an evident change. I may have expressed my views to tbo President.

These Agents have agreed to keep a full assortment of my pens, and to sell them at my published prices. Thus the public are aupplied by them with just such pens as they want, either as to writing or price, and get a foil equivalent for the money paid. No agent is appointed to travel from place to place, or canvass the country, ■o that all who want a Morton Gold Pen must get It from the Local Agent or from headquarters.
