WASHINGTON, February 13.-In the Senate, Mr.
Po MES oY presented a petition from Arkansas loy?
alists, asking an amendment to ELLIOTT'S Bill, to in
dude Arkansas. Mr. WADE moved to take np EL?
LIOTT'S House Bill, hoping that Senators would be
brief in their arguments. Mr. LANE asked to
proceed to the regular business. Mr. WADE re?
plied, that if the Bill was not acted upon immedi?
ately, it could not become a law at this session.
The Chair decided that the Bill could be read once,
but must have the unanimous consent to go fur?
ther. The vote to take up was passed by a vote of
twenty-three to niueteen, when the Bill was read.
Mr. HENDRICKS objected to further proceedings,
and il lays over.
The Military Committee were discharged from
the further consideration' of the Bill to pay the
Tennessee Home Guards.
The League Island Bill was discussed. The
Secretary of War was called on for the authority of
a commiasian appointed during the war to adju?
dicate the claims of loyal Tennesseans, and the
amount and nature of the claims adjudicated.
Mr. WADS read a dispatch from Calorado mass
meeting requesting admission.
In the House, the general business was unim?
portant. Mr. STEVENS' Bill was taken np, when he
moved the previous question, which was negatived,
Mr. STEVENS proposed an amendment which, on ob?
jection, he withdrew, saying that he had tried
vainly to satisfy the gentlemen around him.
Mr. BOUTWELA. argued that the Supreme Court
might decide that the States were still States and
entitled to representation, which would cause a
hazardous conflict; but if the Bill passed, the Su?
preme Court would have no government to reor?
ganize; Congress would have in its own hands the
political reorganization of the States by passing
the Bili, At 2 o'clock, Mr. STEVENS again moved
the previous question, which was negatived. Mr.
BINGHAM spoke in opposition, and took occasion
highly to eulogize ELLIOTT'S Bill. Mr. BLAIN
. moved the previous question, to refer the Bill to
the Judiciary Committee, which was seconded.
Mr. STEVENS spoke for half an hour, and complain?
ed pathetically; defended the Reconstruction-Com
mit tee; abused BINGHAM; opposed ELLIOTT'S'Bill,
because it meant something to be done which
looked like a finality leading to admission. This
position was greeted with "No, no." Mr. SHELIA
BEBOEB explained that there was a Bpedal provi?
sion in ELLIOTT'S Bill, requiring the assent of Con?
gress to the proposed admission. Mr. STEVENS
then seemed to regain his lost power. The main
question was then taken on Mr. BLAIN'S motion to
refer to the Judi ciary Committee. The Democrats
generally voted .with BLAIN. There were two ma?
jority against BLAIN'S motion. The original Bill
was then passed by a vote of 109 to 55. Mr. STE?
VENS exalted over the final success of his BUL and
asked the Speaker if it would be in order for him
to endorse the declaration that Heaven yet ruled
and there, were gods above. The House then ad?
journed.
Mr. STEVENS' Bill that has passed, reads the so
called Confederate "States, instead of the so-called
States.

THE DIRECTORY OP BERLIN.-Every year, says
the Pall Mall Gazette, brings its now 'Tos to thee
D rectory," and some corl?os observers are always
found to count the number of familiar names and
note the varieties of strange ones. This has just
been done with tho Berlin Directory. We are not
surprised to hear that in the capital of Prussia
there are 1267 persons who bear the name of
Scholz, and 929 who bear the name of Muller.
Schmidt has 884 representatives, Meyer 509, and
Lehman 474. After these classical names we come
on a very large class of persons who take their ti?
tles from menial offices. There are 474 Vintners,
254 Cooks and 197 Bakers, 165 Colliers and 284
Fishers. Animals also give names to various
classes. Of Hares there are 114, and of Cocks 140;
96 Stags and 84 Foxes; 78 Goats, 5 Oxen and 6
Sheep, with 38 Butchers. We next come to 34
Pike, 86 Eagles, 12Storks, 2 Sparrows, 35 Finches
and 13 Nightingales. Tho seasons are unequally
distributed, there being only 1 Spring to 82 Sum?
mers, 33 Autumns and 53 Winters. So we mount
up to 14 Popes, 48 Knights, 21 Counts, 81 Dukes,
116 Kings and 55 Emperors.
HISTORICAL FICTIONS.-General Early, of tho
late Confederate army, has published a pamphlet
fiving a history of his campaigns in the valley of
irginia, in which he asserts that the Federal Gen?
erals, including Generala McClellan, Grant, Meade
and Sherman, never failed, in all their dispatches,
to place the forces of the Confederates opposed to
them, at three and four tinos their real number
In these assertions, General Early ia supported br?
other Confederate commanders. At tho battlea
before Richmond, when General McClellan esti?
mated General Lee's army in defense of the city at
over 200,000, it is affirmed that the Confederate
force did not exceed 70,000; at the battle of Antie?
tam, when the Confederates were estimated by
General McClellan at over 100,000, there were but
80,000; at Cold Harbor, ' when General Grant put
down General Breckinridge's command at 15,000,
there were but 3000. and in the campaigns in' th?
Valley, General Early asserts that General Sheri
<2An frequently reported the capture of a larger
number of prisoners than his whole army.
'CHAMBER OP COMMERCE, ff
ANNIVERSARY DINNER,
The 44th Anniversary of the Chamber of Com?
merce of Charleston was celebrated yesterday eve?
ning, by a magnificent Jinner at the Mills House.
At 5? o'clock, the memuers and invited guests as?
sembled, and, as a friend remarked to us at the
time, the President apprehended no difficulty
about getting a quorum.
The dinner came oft" in the ladies' ordinary of the
Mills House, and was all that a fine dinner could
bo expected to be. We do not like to transcribe
bills of fare, for, however welcome their contents
to the true taste in its primitime eenee, they have
long since been voted not in taste (in the meta?
phorical acceptation ol' that term), and wo shall
therefore only state that the bill of fare was print?
ed in elegant style by our cunning friend, Mr. A.
J. BURKE, and bristled with an enumeration of all
that was choice on earth, sea and sky.' Mine host
of the Mills House, Mr. PTJBCELL, has often before
accomplished wonderful feats of Bymposial prepa?
ration, and we therefore naturally expected much, j1
but we must confess in all candor, that yesterday '1
he surpassed all our preconceptions, nay, he sur?
passed himself; for a better dinner-better and
choice viands-better cooked and better served,
wo have never tasted, never seen and never known.
Same as to wines, &c.
But enough of this, the grosser and mere mate?
rial part of the entertainment. The dinner was
very well, but after all was merely a means to an
r ii J : the end a reunion of congenial spirits, and
not in a long time have we seen a gathering as j
[argo, and where all came so fully datermined to }
snjoy themselves, as was the case here yesterday,
rbis was the first dinner the Chamber has had in
several years, and all parties present seemed to
feel thc -bligation to contribute all in their power j
to make it one of material pleasure and enjoy?
ment.
So well had the President of the Society anet
Lhe Stewards made their arrangements, that there
?vas no drag. Everything went off smoothly and j
iappily. (
There were a number of distinguished gnestti
present; among them we would name His Excel
ency Governor JAMES L. ORE, Hon. WM. PORCHER ]
MILES, Judge G LOB OE 8. BRYAN, Judge FRANKLIN i
J. MOSES, His Honor Mayor-P. C. GAILLARD, STAN
LEV G. TROTT, Esq., Postmaster of Charleston;
FREDERICK A. SAWYER, Collector of Lateran! Seve?
rne; Senor MONCAPO, Her Spanish Majesty's Con
ml, and M. LANIN, the French Consul in this city; 1
Captain HuDotNs, of the Carrol, and Captain DUT- 1
CON, o? the Sea GvM, and W. S. HASTIE, Esq.,
President Charleston Board of Trade.
Bev. E. J. ME YN ARD IE being called upon by the T
President, pronounced a blessing upon the boun- c
toona feast set before the Chamber; and; there?
upon, the assembled company yet to work in fair 1
aarnest to do justice to the many good things pro- r
rided for their consideration. After which (about a
) o'clock, P. M.,) the President, A. O. ANDREWS,
Esq., arose and addressed the Chamber as follows :
Geatlernm of the Chamber of Commerce .--The ' c
privilege is highly prized by me of tendering to
ron the solicitations which belong to your festal
lay, and of tendering my acknowledgements for
that continued kindness which still makes me
TOUT honored exponent. I bid you welcome once p
igain to that social com mm i i on in which eac h may,
for a little while, cast the harness from his back, D
forget, for a short interval, the cankering cares
uid hard anxieties which make our lot, and amid "
he appliances which cheer the heart, feel more g
?losely the brotherhood which binds us as one, ??
ind take fresh courage, and a goodly cheer, for
he campaign of the morrow. Q
What thc? storm and clond lower thick and ei
?eavy-steadfast in the path of duty, we possess
mr BOUIS in patience and commit results to Him
vhose benedictive providence is continually, from
ll, educing good.
What tho' our money chests shew not such ani?
lle treasure, we can still rejoice that not a dirty
hilling soils the pile, and realize, like the ancient
> bil, that our losses only give added appr?cia- k
ion to the remnant I But while I gladly Did you el
releome to the indulgence of all that festive com- ?
lunion, so fitly in harmony with the occasion, I ai
annot refrain from invoking your consideration ti
o that grave and vital solution which strides 'a
ight before us like a Colonua-demanding eames t, tl
is tant attention.
Hitherto, our province aa a Chamber bas been
ather to deal with a commerce already existing
o turn with our own channels, and appropriate
he abounding resulta of a system of labor ad
nirably applied in developing the riches of our o!
oil. ' I e<
Now, it has heroine our duty almost to create
new that commerce. And in order to keep
live and preserve it from perishing, we must
naugurate a new system of labor adapted to the
hanged condition of things. 01
A land without laborers, why it is a body with- S1
mt blood I This is not a vam thing, it is your e:
if?-' * g
? The spring, toe head, the fountain of your blood fi
11 stopped-the very source of it is stopped." jj
Every industrial pursuit-every vocation
rhich skill plies its cunning fingers-every invest- 8<
aant of accumulated gain-feeto the death-atooke P:
s effectually as when in the bodily organism. 01
lome unlucky blow leto loose from its appointed e
ourses the crimson tide. We must wilt, and
raste, and perish, unless thia life-giving current
s restored. You must grapple with this difficulty
oanfnlly, earnestly, successfully-and what is ?"
lone, must be done guicldy !
I therefore regarnit as->a happy contingency "
bat we are favored to-night with toe presence of cl
ii honored Executive, not only because I know ftl
?on will delight to tender to him the manifesta- ?
ions of your good will, but because it will afford
ji opportunity of profiting by that large field of I
ibservation, that penetrating sagacity, and that
?levated patriotism which so eminently distinguish
lim. .
Join with me. then, in a rich, cordial and joyous n
ibation, while I propose to yon: ti
Bis Excellency Governor Orr-With the head to j?
)orceivo, and a heart to feel the needs of our dear "
>ld mother, his counsels will come fo ns with a \e
veight entitling them to confidence. 1
Mr. ANDREWS waa repeatedly interrupted by loud
ind prolonged applause. He will pardon ns for o
laying that we consider him one of the happiest ti ]
wet-prandial speakers we have ever had the plea
mre of listening to; easy, clear, felicitous, and to jj
he point k
Governor JAMES L. ORB, thus introduced, rose,
unid the long and prolonged plaudits of the com
>any, and said that he congratulated himself on
ds good fortune in having been permitted to be
tresant on this propitious occasion. A native of a
louth Carohna himself, and from his earliest child- ti
iood taught to look np to Charleston aa the me- c
ropolis, the chief seat cf the civilization, intelli- ^
;ence, refinement and progress of South Carolina, o
Ie said tbat twenty years ago, when he was first
. member of the Legislature, the delegation from
Jharlostcn and the members from the mountains
learly always voted together. This city, during c
he last six years, has been devastated and severe- f
y visited in various way s; but thia is no time for * i
irimination or recrimination. He stated that he '(
ras present duringths disastrous fire of 1861, and Jj
n going recently over the burnt district, he was
lorry that the deBert waste was much the same as
be devouring element had left it five years ago.
Ie had recently been in Bichmond, which suffered/
>y a heavy conflagration in the spring of 18G5, t
ind was gratified to see nearly all of it rebuilt al- t
?eady. What though tho capital for this pur- ?
jose was procured from tho North. He cared not \
There the capital came from that would fill tho t
unsightly gap. He said that his father had been a
?onntry merchant,- who made his first purchases in I \
Charleston; he himself (Gov. ORR) had grown up, j 1
n a great measure, in a country store, and he was,
therefore, able to appieciate tho weight of in na?
mco wielded by merchants. The Governor con
inuod his remarks, with frequent interruptions of
mthusiastic delivery. He adverted to the politi- ?
;al situation, and finally woundup with words of j
lope and encouragement for our old city. ?
Vice-PieBident S AVENEL, being then called upon
remarked that be bad no speech to make, but in a
single word would give a toast-the profession, that
ive have all been brought up to reverence-" The
Clergy of the city of Charleston," which sentiment
ivas eloquently responded to by Bey. E. J, MEY
NAELLE. He, at the close of his remarks, gave
"The Merchants of Charleston, fully qualified tr?
sustain the material interest of the community,
equally qualified to promote and do honor to thc
moral, religious and social influence* of tho com?
munity."
W?. C. BEE, Esq., one of tho Vicc-Presiden?i,
next offered "The Mayor of Charleston-in him,
commerce has always found tho enlightened advo?
cate of the rights, the exponent of her worth, and
the guardian of her interests."
To which the Mayor, Col. P. C. GAILLARD, re?
plied in his usual earnest, felicitous style. Ho
concluded by toasting, in his turu, ''Commerce,
the promoter of civilization, refinement," etc.
Yice-President WM. L. TBENHOLM, Esq., next
presented, in very flattering and graceful terms,
the Hon. GEORGE S. BRYAN, Judge of the United
States Court, for tho District of South Carolina.
We have ample notes of his remarks, but the late
hour forbids our giving them in full. He closed
by offering the following sentiment : Our fellow
countryman, GEOBOE PEABODY, the philanthropist,
a true minister of commerce, who has never failed
to "communicate," and whose business has been
to "distribute."
JOHN HANCKEL, Esq., Chairman of the Stewards,
toasted the Charleston Board of Trade, to whom
he extended the right hand of fellowship. Thin
was replied to by TV. S. HASTIE, Esq., the Presi?
dent of the Board, in his usual happy style. Tho
railroads formed the chief topic of his discourse.
In conclusion, he toasted the Chamber of Com?
merce.
vice-President TUPPER, in very happy terms,
brought out Hon. WM. PORCHES MILES, who waa
greeted with unbounded enthusiasm, on j respond?
ed in a few modest bnt touching remarks, which
we hope to give in full in our next.
Mr. WM. A. COURTENAY, in response to a call
From President ANDREWS, arose and said, that in
the discharge of the duty assigned him, he desired
to offer a sentiment to an honored guest at our
board, one who, coming among ns at a period of |
??reat public embarrassment, has, in the discharge
xf the official duties entrusted to him, so blended
i courtesy and a delicate consideration for thoBe
imong whom he has been thrown for the past two
rears, as to win from all classes of the community
their reBpect and ihoir esteem. Without farther
remarks, he proposed
Hie HeaUh of Stanley G. Troll, Esq., Acting Pos.'- \
nosier ai Charleston.
Mr. TROTT arose, amid the deafening plaudits of <
;he assembled company, and modestly stated that '
f he had any idea in his head before he rose, the
lattering clamor that greeted his appearance had
niven it clean beyond his grasp. He was flattered;
)ut even delicate compliments are often ombar- .
.assing-sometimes through a feeling that they (
ire undeserved, and at other times again from a t
lonscionsness of a want: of suitable langnaage in *
vliich to acknowledge such compliment. He
leartily thanked the company, both individually t
md also as the representativo of the commercial 1
lommunity of Charleston for their kind and fa
rorable jndgment of his administration, and the
iniform personal courtesy that had characterized
lis intercourse with them, and had made his du?
lles pleasant in this community. He proposed
he following sentiment in conclusion :
The prosperUy of Ute Mercliants of CJtarieslon:
intelligent justico their law-comprehensive en- v
erprise their policy-and refined courtesy their f
nnnner. t
Mr. WM. D. CLANCET, the newly-elected Solicitor, f
vas called on for a sentiment, and in a neat and v
.erv good-humored compliment drew out FEEDER- r,
CK A. SAWYER, Esq., Collector of Internal Seve?
rne, who made a few well-timed and very well re- {.
served remarks. t
Mi-. TUPPER next toasted the city of New York, t
vliich was responded to by Mr. JOHN A. WILSON, *
if New York. g
Sonor MoNCADA.was the recipient of a very com- c
ilimentary toast from the President, to which he
esponded most feelingly, alluding to his consular
ervice in Charleston during the past six years,
nd paying a tribute to the heroic oity of Charles
on, enduring all the hardships of the war, and
heerfnlly bearing its privations, of which he was
, daily witness.
The Consul of France also received the most
larked courtesies; and great gratification was st?
ressed at his pr?sence.
We must crave the indulgence of our readers,
ut more especially of the gentlemen of the enam?
or of Commerce and their guestB, for the foreg?
oing very imperfect report of this most interest
ig entertainment, but the lateness of the hour
mst be our excuse; for this report was not fitiish
i till two o'clock A. M.
V liui Kind of Education, is Now Needed f
Not the least important of tho many momentous
tiestions arising out of the new state of things in
h i eh we now find ourselves placed, is that of the
ind of instruction necessary for the rapid and
leetive development of our material resources,
i nothing will there have to be a more marked
id radical change than in our system of educa
on. The day of intelligent capital and ignorant
bor has forever passed with us. Labor is now
10 common lot of oil, aud educated labor is the
acessity of our condition. Our colleges and nni
ireities can no longer bo filled with the sons of j
ealthy landholders, pursuing a course of classical
indies preparatory to a life of indolence and bu?
ry, or as a training for the contests and victories
"'political ambition. But ou the contrary the
luca?on of our youth must now be the capita!
ith which they shall go forth in the fields of agri
llture, mechanics and commerce, to earn their
oily bread, and regain their wasted estates.
We say that the youth of our State must be edu
ited to this work, for we who are now actively en
aged in clearing away the wreck of the past, can
epeet^to do little else than prepare tho way and
lark ont the foundations for our fut ure prosperity.
; will remain for those who succeed ns on the ut?
il stage of life, to rear the superstructure and
erald the day, when our noble Old Common -
oaltb. having swept away every trace of her pro?
mt desolations, shall arise with more than her
restine glory to control the political and commer
al destinies of a continent. To accomplish this
id our youth must have a practical education,
he dean languages, metaphysics, law, and politi
11 economy, while desirable and in their proper
lhere beneficial, must no longer be the sole or
i-en the chief studies of our children. The natu?
il sciences, together with their practical applioa
on to tbe great interests of agriculture and me
ianics, the principles of commercial eoonomy,
id the rules thal govern trade, must constitute,
ir tbe most part, the training of the mind, while
ie physical education of the body to manual labor
i requisite to successful preparation for the great
ork lying before those wbo are soon to take our
laces in the struggle for independence and influ
ice. Tho maxim that labor is honorable, must
0 longer be received and laid aside as an abstract
-uth which has no practical bearing, but om*
lildren must be taught that not to labor is dis
onorablo, and that how to labor can only be
larned by experience at the plow, the anvil and
ie work-bench. Whilst it is necessary that the
asaes which are to direct and control the work of
.construction, the proprietors of the soil and the 1
tvners of capital mua t ii) future be educated oby- h
cally; it is equally as important that the class li
?Inch heretofore have only had physical training, p
hould now be mentally and morally instrnctecL y
? matters not whether to the negro as a slave this
ind of knowledge was advantageous or otherwise:
1 him as a freedman it is absolutely essential, if
o would develop in him a useful and profitable
(borer.
That educated is more profitable than ignorant
ibor, will, we think, hardly be denied, and that an
iucatod peasantry is more desirable, both socially
nd politically, than an uneducated one, is equally
me. The questions then are, how and to what
xtent shall this class be taught ? To the latter ^
e answer to tbe highest extent practicable. We -
onfees that the light which experience throws np
n the intellectual capacity of the negro is not
ivorablc to a high state of cultivation. This is
specially true of him when freed from coercive
overnment. He is bv nature physically indolent
nd sloth!al, and seems to be incapacitated for any
onsiderable amount of mental exertion. That dis
inguished traveller and discoverer, Albert Baker
who, lot it be borne in mind, belong i to the Exe
er Hall school of emancipationists), speaking of
be negro, says that the negro grows physically
ut dwarfs intellectually, so that his best days 1
Dentally are those of his childhood, and that as <?
Tis physical development increases his moral and
uteilectnal powers decrease. These observations
f one who devoted several years to the Btudy of
ho African character in its native country, and
lith a mind predisposed lo Judge favorably, havo
ieen amply continued by our own experience; still
he negro is capable of some intellectual baining,
ind in just the proportion that these powers are
levelopod, in just the same ratio will his usefulness
io increased. He may be taught to read and write,
o enumerate-and lie possesses the property of
mitativonesa, HO thut he can acquire many of the
killed arts, Teaoh him these, and yon have mada
he first and main step towards arousing him from 5
lis indolence and sloth. He will then begin to 1
ealize the moral, social and physical advantages
if constant, energetic effort, instead of being
Iriven to unwilling labor by the pressure of want,
ind hunger, and will then become a conservative
ather than a destructive element of society. But j <
low is this education to be given and by whom ?
tfot by those vagabond adventurers, botfi male and
'emole, who, incapable and indisposed to attempt
raining an honest livelihood at homo, flock as birds
>f prey aeeklng carrion, to obtain a precarious
mbsistence, by pandorirg to the worst appetites
iud passions of a degraded and senu-barbarouB
.ace, and who, haring no motive other than pcr
ional aggrandizement or notoriety, care nothing
br the interest or welfare of those for whom they
irofess such deep devotion. That among thoso so I j
.ailed missionaries from the Northern States, who
ire sent under tho auspices of the Freedman's Bu?
rean, ore?me voluntarily, to devote their very val?
?anlo time and intellect lo the amelioration and
improvement of their beloved protege, the negro,
Lhere may be some honest, useful and harmless
Joes, we will not undertake to deny; unfortunately,
however, wo have not seen or heard of any such.
Plie only fruits that we hat e been able to discover
from tho. instruction of these puritanical hypo?
crites, is increased dissatisfaction, impudence and
worthlessness on tho part of those they came to
improve, without oven the poor compensation of a
knowledge of the alphabet or a conception of tho
rudiments of Webster's Universal Yankee Spelling
Book. That this ?a not true in every instance, we
fain would hope, but there uau be nj.? question as
to its being the jouerai rul?, with, we lear, hardly
tbe necessary exceptiona to provo tho rule.
The influence then of these would-be martyrs to
the cttuue cf philanthropy being no deleterious,
how shall we best sol about counteracting it '( To
this we reply, first, by teaching the freedmen in
our employment ourselves; and secondly, by es?
tablishing", whenever and wherever practicable,
schools for them under Hie supervision of our own
people.
Let every employer encourage thc freedmen in
his service to len ni. and let hun devote a portion
of his time to teaching them. We havo still in a
great measure the confidence of our former slaves.
and if wa but pat forth a very little effort to ia
a tract and educate them, we will more than regaii
oar former bold upon their affections. Let OB, b;
dealing justly and liberally with them, elevate an(
encourage their moral sensibilities, and by show
in? an interest in their welfare, both temporal am
spiritual, secure that influence over them whirl
will enable os to make them both a safe and nsefa
class in the community. And let us also organize
wherever practicable,"schools where they may ob
tain at least such instruction as will flt them foi
the ordinary avocations of life.
Thr.t the negro ought to be educated is we think
beyond dispute; that he, will be taught by some?
body and in some way, is, we think, 'equally evi?
dent ; it remains for us then to see that he receives
that which will be most beneficial bbth to him and
ourselves ; and the sooner and more earnestly we
set about this work, the better for the prosperity
of ourselves and our State.

THE GEORGIA HISTORICAL SOCIETY-EULOGY ON
ran LATE BIFHOP ELLIOTT.-The anniversary of
tliis ancient Society was celebrated lest evening at
the Baptist Church. At an early hour, despite the
Unpleasant weather, the spacious edifice was
irowded, every available seat being occupied-the
ludience embracing hundreds of our most promi?
nent citizens-tho reputation of the distinguished
?cholar and poet selected to deliver the oration,
Son. Henry lt. Jackson, attracting the admirers
rf the lamented Elliott. After prayer and music,
she orator of the evening arose, and in address,
replete with beauty, force and fervid eloquent ,
;u ct aili cd the entire assembly for one hour, pa .
raying the virtues, humanity and charity t-J
Bishop Elliott, with especial reference to his con
?ection with the Georgia Historical Society* and
lis representative relation in the cause of Soath
irn civilization. ...
The distinguished eulogist was peculiarly happy
n hli selection of the prominent points of charoc
er which so remarkably distinguished the i ll ne -
nous deceased, and won from the entire audience
hat sympathy and acknowledgment which true
iloquence never fails to elicit. The oration will
lonbtless be given in an enduring form, and will
tdd another page as a heart-tribute to one who
i ved "not for himself but for others." Il ever a
nan came up to the standard so beautifully de
icribed by the poet, and so aptly introduced by
he eloquent orator-Bishop E.'Jott was the rann:
"Like some tall olin*erect-3aia lofty form
Swells from tbe vale, and mid-way leaves the atme;
Though round ita base theroiliug clouas are aped;
Eternal eunsbine settles on ita head."
LOOK OCT FOB THICKS.-MR. EDITOR :-Yan
rill iee that many sharp persons, in taking notes
br old debts, are careful to nave thom payable to
leaier instead of to order, and to make them over
Ive hundred dollars. Why ia this ?
A note for over $500, if payable to order cannot
>e sued in the Circuit Court of the United States,
inlesa the payer of the note was a non-resident, or
ithurwise bau the right to sue in that Court. But
f the debt is over $500, sad is payable to A B or
rearer, and it is transferred to a non-resident of
his State, it can bo sued in the Circuit Court of
he United States. The purpose is to thus get
heir debtors before a jurisdiction where tho
etnedy is more summary and the Stay Law of our
tf-ftbe would not be in the way of selling the. debt
ir a property. Look sharp, or you will bo caught
a this trap. DOUGHERTY.
