South whieii was t.he lesult if?'*. was !
eonaily slut re.. I by t'iie North. The North was.
bench Hod hv the wealth and prosperity of the i
South. The abolition of slavery is one of I he ,
results of the wai. If tlie Southern peoph- accept
that result ehc.rfui'y, and adapt them- j
selves to tlif cliangid relations which it will i
involve, the Interests pt'lhc v;ho]e country re- j
quire that they he encouraged iu every poso.-l
hlv way. The amnesty proclamation of May-,
i'htii, therefore, is ouly the fust step of the j
President iu that direction. 11, will soon he 1
followed Ly another, reducing the number or i
excepted classes, and containing other liberal i
provisions towards the citizens of ttic Southern
States.
The President realizes that the object of the
war was ro res'ore the Union, and not to airedisli
slavery, or to c-s.for the rights of citizen
ship upon negroes. Lie intends that the
object shall he accomplished, and that the
UHioii shall h? restored upon such principle's
that it will ho hereiifter indissoluble. But lie j

re-construction a race of wen just deliv.;ed
from bondage, igaoiant, debased, and degraded, I
uud utterly incapahlo of. understanding the '
ouSiject. So far as !iis influence unci authority 1
extends, justice will be done to the liberated
slaves; work and Wages will be provided for
them, with schools and religious imtuieijonn;
i none will be all owed to oppress or injni'd
i in any way ; but the question allowing them
to vota will be left to tho dcu i.-ion oft ho legal

PuusuNAL.?General Grant; the day before

to the ladies, v. ho took Jiiia by .storm.

living It. kiss you?but tbey don't dare to do
it.' Well,1" said the gall suit General, "if they
want to kis me, why don't thoy ? No one has

Never was such a man subjected to such an
ordeal. is)n came the maidens by squads, iu
file, or?.singly; they bit liiiu on the forehead,
pelted him on the forehead, pelted bim on Lis
nose, smacked him on the check, chin and
neck. Thorn must be dozens of kisses lying
around loose hidden iu the General's whiskers,

battlefields blushed until his face became

A Romantic Suicide.?A suicide from disappointment
in love has just been committed
by a young aoman empitoyud as saleswoman in
shop in the Rue do Rivoli, Paris. Before
lighting a pan of charcoal, with which she put
an einl to her existence, sho hitd decorated her
room with Cowers, and thou dressed herself in
white. When found she tvas lying on her bed,
lior hands folded on her breast, and her countenance
bearing a look so placid that she might
have boon supposed to b" sleeping. She h id
written a letter to her mother askiug for forgiveness,
and staling the motive which had
prompted her to suicide.

State right*, State sovereignty, and all that
theory of United States Government nxp now
exploded. The question of the reserved righte
of states has been settled by the sterp arbitrament
of arras. The arbitrament is, whether
right or wrong,'decisive. It ends the controvers}.
We, who are defeated, must yield to
the decision, because we can do nothing else*
We must entertain no private enmities against *
the Federal Government, because they will
lead us into treason. We believe it the true
part of manliness to yield when hope is gone,
as much as to struggle on while there is a chance
of success, .
