At tho Commencement of the Eclectic Medical
College of New York, last week, the following par?
agraph formed part of the address :
Cm: impression also is that our graduates, and
other students, are deeply devoted to tbe peculiar
doctrines of American ?cleoticism-peciiliar, in
that we select our remedies from every school of
practice, and from all sources, with impartiality;
pe<mliar, in that we reject bloodletting and all other
measures which are extremely depletive and ex?
hausting; peculiar, in that we object to mercury,
arsenic and other mineral poisons; and peculiar,
also, in that we are actively discovering and devel?
oping numerous remedies of inestimable value,
frc m the fields and forests of our own country.
The graduates of the "Eclectic Medical College of
tho City of New York" will now, and hereafter, go
forth belonging to no medical party, except so far
as they are compelled to be a party, in order that
they may be true to themselves, BB the believers
in, and exponents and defenders of, the party of
universal and progressive medical science.
This may be progressive science, but to our old
' fogy ears, it has a very strong twang of quack.
A hermit has taken up his abode in the Apach
country, in thc Hunco Mountains, about thirty
five miles east of El Paso. He is an Italian by
birth, about sixty years of age, speaks many lan?
guages, is well educated, and is believed by the
simple Mexicans, who visit him by hundreds, to
bo endowed with remarkable gifts, such as the
working of miracles, etc. He has resided in Peru,
among the Andes, in Brazil, Patagonia, Central
America, and subsequently in Europo and Asia,
and also in the Pyrenees, and more recently among
the mountains of New Mexico.

The Vision of Confiscation which Fright
ened Reverdy Johnson.
The sadden and astounding: support given by
REVERDY JOHNSON fco SHERMAN'S Bill is at last ex?
plained. He d;scovered, it is credibly stated, that
it was the purpose of the next Congress, which is
ten-fold more remorseless, violent and proscriptive
than the present, to press the passage of a whole?
sale confiscation bill if the present plan for recon?
struction fails. He quailed before the revelation
of this Moloch spirit, and tho vision of confisca?
tion and beggary of millions of his countrymen
extorted from him the reluctant support of an in?
famous measure. He saw au unarmed, noble and
defeated section powerless, in the grasp and at
the mercy of an unfeeling foe, more remorseless
than Goth, Hun, Hessian cr Turk, and he made, as
he believed, a timely sacrifice of opinion to save a
people whom he loved, and for whose wrongs his
heart bled.
There may bi} men cast in unusual and heroic
mould, designed doubtless by GOD to play the
part of martyrs, who find in this conduct of Mr.
JOHNSON sufficient ground for denunciation, bul we
do not. If this explanation of- the reason for
REVEBDT JOHNSONS change is true, we think he
has committed one of those sins which theJ'Re?
cording Angel will blot out with a tear" for the
weakness of a generous heart, when the books of
the Chancery of Heaven are opened for tho final
balancing of all earthly accounts.
The South has been scourged terribly enough
for all sane men to pray that confiscation, that
last Bad vial of Apocalyptic wrath shall not be
poured upon our heads. The world is sufficiently
Foll of the tales of the heroism of this blighted and
impoverished section, for us, in the moment of ex?
treme peril, to wish to protect our wifes, our chil?
dren, and our desolated firesides from thehorors of
absolute destitution. Secure as he is: in his own
life and property from the malice and the greed of
the modern Goths, the menaced South should
surely listen with charity to the exouse which the
Wends of REVERDY JOHNSON offer fov his support
of the "SHEEMAN BiU." Gratelully remembering
Uaatable gentleman's generous sympathy ?or us
during the war, and his heroic and frequent de?
nunciations of the outrages on the South from his
seat in the Senate, we regret tha t we should have
prematurely denounced him to our readers for
yielding to the dictates of a heart full of kindness
for ns.-Richmond Times. .
THE RICHMOND Times, adverting to the Gover?
norship of Virginia, thus speaks of the heroic Gen
aral LEE:
"There was a time when his splendid genios
bad hurled army after army of Federal invaders,
broken, defeated and demoralized, from the soil of
ais mother State, and when our success seemed
assured, rumor attributed to this great men the
modest admission that he craved no higher honor
than to be the Governor of .Virginia. Until he
speaks, we trust that no inferior man will dare to
to outrage publ'c opinion in Virginia; by. venturing
io solicit an office which Lyra may not feel author?
ized to; d?chue."
. The persistency with which the organs of South
;rn opinion dilate upon the glorious incidents of
the campaign, the intense interest with which the
ic tors in those stirring scenes are regarded, in
spite of the abounding miseries enUiled by the
ivar upon the Southern people, give eviaenco of a.
strength and continuity in the national sentiment:
which ought to extort tho admiration rather than
?he hatred of their conquerors, and quicken the
jxercise of a magnanimity which has not yet char
wterized the acts of the American Government or
leople.
The policy of the North, viewed in either, a po?
litical or social aspect, cannot fail, sooner or later
;o rekindle the elements of strife; and it is hard to
tay what combinations the South may not; be en?
abled to form, should Northern hatred again force
bom to blows. Baily subjected to humiliations
nore disastrous than defeat, denied the aid which
i magnanimous conqueror never refuses to a fallen
mem y, stung to the quick at being placed on an
(quality with the freedmen, erstwhile bound to
hem as much by'iles of affection and gratitude as
>y the rights of proprietorship, forced into the Iiv

rhioh now deprives them of all participation
n the gorvernment of the common country, it
nay indeed be regarded as inevitable that they

Unority Report of tho Sooth Carolina
Molders.
Hon. EDMUND COOPER, of the Select Committee
ppointed by Congress to inquire into the murder
if the Federal soldiers in South Carolina, has sub
litted a minority report on the subject in which
ie altogether- dissents from the opinions of tho
lajority of the committee os expressed in their re
)ort. Mr. COOPEE says that the facts elicited at
he trial of the prisoners J. C. KEYES, F. G.
5 TO WEB, F.QBEBT KEYES and ELISHA BYROM do not
.rove their guilt; that the tribunal by which they
rere tried was illegal; that they were brought to
i"ort Delaware by order of Secretary STANTON, and
Iso justifies the commutation of their sentence by
be President, and their subsequent release after a
rial before an United States Court. In regard to
he alleged outrages on freedmen in thc South Mr.
COOPER says:
It is true that General Thomas, General Sickles?
Seneral Wood and General Baird in their fcestimo
?y expresa the opinion that the civil tribunals in
ie departments under their command do not ad
ninia ter full and impartial justice in cases where
Jnion men, soldiers and freedmen are parties liti?
gant; but they furnish but one single caso,
dthough the direct question is asked thom, and
bat was a case in the State of Tennessee, men
;ioned by General Thomas, which ho admits to be
;he only one within his department.
It is true that they mention in general terms that
[Jnion men, Federal soldiers and freedmen are not
safe in their departments, but when asked to spec
fy the number of eas es and tho localities whore
?hey have occurred, and the names of tho partie
njured within the last twelve months, they could
inly mention ono case in the State of Tennessee, at
Nashville ; one in the State of Mississippi, at Gre
aada ; one in the State of Louisiana, on the road
between Alexandria and Monroe, and not a sinplo
?ase in Virginia except the Watson case, and no
;ase in North Carolina, Georgia, Florida or Ala -
bama.
And in each of these coses these officers testify
that every exertion was made by the civil authori?
ties to arrest and punish the offending parties.
Mr. COOPER, in conclusion, says :
"Hence, I do not believe with tho committco
"that the courts cannot bo relied on foi the pun?
ishment of orime, 'where the Union man, soldier
or freedman is concerned, and that justice is prac?
tically denied thom;' or, 'that up to this time,
sinco the close of the war, there lias bcon no
change for the bette;' and !tbat tho best material
interest of thc country, as well as thc h.ghost con?
siderations of humanity,' call for the establish?
ment of military governments over tho States of
Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkan?
sas and Texas. On tho contrary, in my opinion,
genuine freedom is imperilled by such legislation,
and that it cannot long survivo tho corrupting in?
fluence of 'Bristling bayonets and tho vaulting
ambition of military rulers.'"

CHARLESTON*, S
Tho South Should Act Under the Sherman
Bill.
The New York Times publishes the following on
the above subjoct :
. It is very well understood that bills are in
course of preparation for early introduction into
tho next Congress providing for a sweeping con- j
fiscation of rebel property in the Southern States, 1
and for its distribution among the enfranchised
slaves, for paying claims of loyal men for property
destroyed during the war, and for giving farms to
Northern soldiors who will mettle in the South. Mr.
Stevens has declared his purpose, 'God willing and
lie living,' to press such a measure as this upon
Congress, and Gen. Banks in debate declared him?
self in favor of such distribution of Southern farms
among Northern soldiers as the only effectual mode
of reconstructing Southern society. It may safely
be -assumed that the whole body of Radicals in
Congress will go for such a measure; and it is con?
fidently expected that the rejection by the South of
the new terms now proposed w?l create a fresh
fooling of resentment which will /rive it popularity
and strength throughout the North. The measure
itself lias elements of attraction for many classes,
and is expected to secure the support or the sol
j diers in a body.
It may be supposed that the Supreme Court will
present a final Darrier against the ultimate suc?
cess of such a project. But it must be remember?
ed that four members of that court out of nine
would now, beyond all doubt, endorse such a mea?
sure; and that of the five who would oppose ft,
one, if not two, will probably never again sit on
the bench, in consequence of extreme age and ill?
ness. A law was passed, moreover, at the last
session, which declares that in case of the death
of a Supreme Court Judge the vacancy shall not
be filled until the whole number of judges shall
have been reduced by death or otherwise to seven.
The chances are, therefore, that within the next
year the Supreme Court of the United States will
be as thoroughly in the hands of the Radicals as
Congress is.
Virginia and the Military Reconstruction
Bill.
An informal meeting of the members of the Vir?
ginia Legislature was held in the Senate Chamber,
in Richmond, on Saturday, which was addressed
by Governor PIERPONT, who was invited to be
present. The object of the meeting was to confer
together upon the political situation of the South
as affected by the SHERMAN Military Reconstruc?
tion Bill passed by Congress. The Exa miner gives
the following sketch of the remarks of Governor
PIERPONT:
They had all seen the Act spoken of. It care?
fully abstained from intimating any mode by which
a State Convention should be organized to make a
Constitution. It gave the military no authority to
organize one. This was logical, because the com?
plaint was that tho governments in other States
South were organized under military surveillancp.
It did not entrust tho movement to the provision?
al governments now existing, because they might
fold their arms and refuse to act, and thereby de?
feat the object of tho Bill. The military were
clothed with ample power to keep the peace, and
even suppress the existing civil government. j
Some parties were relying on the Supremo Court
to declare the Act unconstitutional. ThiB was il?
lusory. The Supreme Court had, some forty days
ago, delivered an opinion in the Milligan case, and
had gone out of the record and declared that Con?
gress had no authority to authorize military com
mi sions to try supposed offenders. Congress
had never authorized a military commission by?
law; but now, while the words of this decision wore
fresh in the months of the judges, the Congress
has passed the Act authorizing tho commission,
which was as much as to say, now.we have author?
ized what you have said is unconstitutional; set it
aside if you dare; and the Supreme Court has con?
sidered discretion tho better part of valor, and had
passed a resolution for tho present not to interfere
with political questions. ;
He said there wer o two ways to make the Con?
stitution under this act of Congress. The first
is for all who desiro to enter, into the movement
to hold their primary meetings in each county,
and elect delegates to a central convention, where
thev will Ax the number of delegates and appoint
their commissioners to superintend .the election of
delegates to tho convention. to make a Constitu?
tion under .the provisions of the act.
Tho other mode was for this Legislature to
promptly pass an act providing for holding a
convention under the restrictions of this act of
Congress. This course was opposed by some,
and it was proposed for them to fold their arms
in mdifierenc?, and take no action in the prem?
isos. Ho was in favor of calling the convention
in the mode last indicated, because it would be
done under the form of law, and he thorcht
would be moro likely to secure an accepta bib
constitution with this new element in the body
politic, who were to participate tn the elections
and government of the State. If the constitution
was left to bo made under the mode first indicated
thoy might got a good constitution, or they may
get avery unacceptable one. He supposed under the
act of Congress there was not more than five per
cent, of the white voters excluded-perhaps lesa.
The great body of the people had their lands, fami?
lies and debts, which they could not leave ; and it
was not in his opinion wise to say, because some
of us cannot participate, none of us will. He had
determined long since, when he could not get all
he wanted, to get the next best be could. In con?
clusion, he assured them if they did not provide for
making a constitution one would.be made for
them.
The Richmond Times says that at the hour fixed
for speaking some thirty or forty citizens had col?
lected in the Senate Chamber, while in the lobby
and Senate Chamber together there were, perhaps,
about the same number of members of the Legis?
lature. It is proper to s tato that such prominent
and influential members of either house as were
present attended solely because they considered flt
proper that they should be present in case any dis?
cussion followed thc Governor's remarks. His
views met the approbation of but a small number of
the members of tito Legislature.
THE FAMINE IN SOUTH CAROLINA.-The Southern
Famine Belief Commission, of New York, have
received many letters from South Carolina, all cjf
which agree in representing the scarcity of provi?
sions in that State as being of the most serious
character. It extends over nearly the whole State,
and unless relief be quickly given, nothing, it is
?tated, can prevent absolute starvation among the
poorer classes, while a largo number of the plant?
ers and farmers will be left without seed for the
next crop. Tho New York Post says :
Governor Orr writes that the destitution is so
great and severe that five hundred thousand bush?
el* of corn aro estimated to be needed to feed the
people, over and above all that can be obtained
within the Stato. Colonel William Nettles, a gen?
tleman of high standing in Sumter District, na*
boen in this city with a bond signed by about
seventy-five planters, in which they pledge their
next cotton crop as security for about forty thou?
sand dollars' worth of corn and bacon. He could
find no ono to take his bond, and has left the city,
after obtaining two thousand bushels of corn from
the commission for tho relief of the very poor of
his district, saying that unless ho could find some
persons in some other city to make th* necessary
advances, he did not soe how it would be possible
for the planters of Sumter District to put m their
seed the present season.
A similar statement comes from the most promi?
nent men in Lancaster District cf the same State,
who oder to mortgage their real estate as security
for tho cc i and bacon needed to supply tho wanta
of the people until another harvest can be
gathered in.
Represent a t ions of tho same character come from
Richland, Greenville, Darlington and Greenwood
Districts, and it is boliovod that at least one hun?
dred thousand people, one-quarter of the popula?
tion of the whole Stato of South Cnrolina, are now
in absolute need of provisions, and, if relief is not
given, the number must increase overy week un?
til Jxily.-BaUimore Sun.

CAMELS BORN IN CAPTIVITY.-A Cheeltnham
(Eng.) paper says : "An Arabian or single hump
camel, and a Bactrian or doublo hump camel, both
belonging to Mrs. Wombwells menagerie, have
just given birth to calves. Tho Bactrian camel is
particularly fond of its baby, and ?B nursing it
well, covering it up with its long mane when it
lies down. Tho Arabian camel is rather spiteful,
and Mr. Fairgrievc was compelled to tako the calf
from her, as she threatened to kill it. He immedi?
ate procured a footling bottle, and is bringing the
c:df up admirably with milk from tho mother, put
into tho bottle The father of both tho camels is
a very largo double humped Bactrian camel, and is
considered the largest and handsomest in Britain.
There have been onlv four camel calves born in
Britain, and what makes this the moro curious is
thc two births taking placo within half an hour of
each other. Mr. Fairgrievo has named the male
calf "Robert Burns," as it was born on the groat
Scottish bard's hirthdav."

A FEW WORDS OF COMMON
SENSE.
How few there are who are not subject io some affection
of the lungs or respiratory organs, who, by neglecting
premonitory symptoms, aggravate the complaint, until
disease strikes its shafts, causing inexpressible torture
of th? patient, and anxiety and distress to friends. "Only
a cold ! " "A slight sore throat 1" is the heedless remark
of many when so affected. Yes ; "Only a cold," was the
thoughtless expression of thousands whom Death has
marked for his prey.
Forewarned-Forearmed 1 should be the motto forever
In the minds of all subject to Coughs, Colds, Catarrh, or
Influenza. Words of advice should be heeded by all suf?
fering tram Asthma, Bronchitis, Consumption. Relief ie
within their reach; and, if neglected, fatal consequences
ensue-a life of misery-a dafly, hourly struggle for ex?
istence. A contest in which there can be but one victor
-Death I
.. Docs it not appal tho strongest mind, to think of the
result caused by neglect? Then why delay? What ex?
cuso can be offered, when timely warning ls sounded in
your ears? When tho danger ls pointed out, whynot
avoid lt? MABBDEN'B PECTORAL BALK has been used
with success in nearly a million of coses, and is endorsed
by .the Medical Faculty as the most prompt and effica?
cious remedy that scientific rosearlo has discovered, to
relievo and cure, all cases of Co.iphs, Colds, Influenza,
and Consumption, ' if tho caso is not beyond all hope.
Even when the sufferer is ia the last stages, he will find
relief by using this preparation. One bottle will con?
vince -the most incredulous, that the mflrtte of this prepa?
ration are by no means exaggerated; in fact, fall for short
-of the eulogies bestowed upon lt by thousands who have
-been cured by its timely use. A guarantee accompanies
each bottle and dealers are instructed. in every instance
to refund the money when this preparation fails to re?
lieve.
