Wo make tho following extrait from a speech delivered last week, in Congress, by Mr. Robinson, of Brooklyn, New York. Tho speech was a long and ablo one, uud this eloquent extract will well repay pe? rusal : And never shall wo have recon? struction till reconciliation fans its holy spark into a vivifying flame. Never, while men who should dio pleading for forgiveness as they hope to be forgiven crawl arouud tho tomb-stones of the bloody past like another "Old Mortality," with in? cessant mallet and steeled ch ?sol, deepening tho records of human frailty which the winds and rains of Heaven wero mercifully providing to obliterate. "A canting crow, So smooth, so godly, yet so devilish, too, Who, armed at once with Bibles and with whips, Blood on their hands and Scripture on their lips, Tyrants by creed and torturers by text, Make tins lifo hell in honor of tho next.1' Let "b.ygones be bygones," if you ever mean to let us becotno ono peo? ple nguiu. If you mean, to keep us forever apart, say so ana be honest. Wo have fought the .South with their Johnstons and their Stonewall Jack? sons, and they, by our superior num? bers and resources, are at our feet. The prodigal son, at whom tho gen? tleman from Pennsylvania [Mr. Ste? vens] recently sneered, has returned from scenes of dissipation and riot t ona living. If 3'ou mean to take him Bjbaok, do so, and kill the fatted calf, ^lf yon mean to slay thc prodigal sou and keep the fatted calf kicking up its heels around the barn-yard, say so. Do something; but do not talk reconstruction while you tire plotting disunion. If the erring wife has re? turned, take her to your bo.^omi or, if you cannot do this, cast her from you forever. Do not ho reconstruct . ing her into another and different person, for that would not be recon? ciliation, but bigamy. [Laughter. | If you mean to live with her, banish from your roof, as you would a spirit from hell, every croaking miscreant who would shriek into both your ears the follies and thc crimes which you both committed and which lcd to j'our separation. If you mean to restoro to tho weeping Union its former children, oh, give her back her darling hoy, and not the sickly, fairy child with which you would mock a mother's prayer. Sir, these are words of truth and soberness. I believe the speed? iest way to reconstruction is honest reconciliation and mntnal forgive? ness. I stand not here to justify tho South. While sho was in rebellion, sho was my enemy; in submission, she becomes again my friend. I would not inflict upon her ono singlo unnecessary humiliation. Of crimes against us sho has been guilty, but who can cast tho first stone of inno? cence? I tell you that thoro wero more crimes against life, person and property perpetrated in Massachu? setts since the rebellion was put down thnn in South Caroliua; crimes deeper and more damnable, somo oven nameless, for which no punish? ment was inflicted, not oven expul- ' sion from tho legislativo body of which their perpetrators were mem? bers. I tell you that lifo and person and property havo been moro unsafe, that crimes against them have boen inure numerous in one 8<nglo North? ern district than in thc entire State of North Carolina. Life, liberty and property to-day are in moro jeopardy in Tennessee, which you do not pro? poso to reconstruct .or control, than in any other portion of tho world. ^ . ?' -- Tho Boston Post says that tho factory operatives in Now Bedford were never so continuously and dis? gracefully drunk as at present. Annexation of Mexico. Tho Washington correspondent of tho New York Herald writes: Daring the Inst few days, a new movement has como to light, which has for its objeot tho annexation of Mexico to tho United States. Tho facts concerning it are as follows: It seems that Mr. Abbott, brother of tho historian, J. S. C. Abbott, has been engaged for two years past in plauning and maturing a scheme for the acquisition of tho Northern tier of Mexican States, with a view ulti? mately to tho absorption of tho wholo of Mexico. He has traveled exten? sively through thuteouutrj-, put him? self in communication with its lead? ing men, including Juarez, and rando overtures to them, with the tacit sanction of promiucut parties in tho United States. Until lately, ho met with but littlo encouragement in Mexico. Since the capturo and exe? cution of Maximilian, however, his propositions have been more favora? bly considered. A few days ago, Mr. Abbott succeeded in getting together a number of prominent Senators and Representatives, to whom ho made a statement of his labors and prospects. The meeting was held in thc Vice President's room at tho capitol. Thero were present Senators Wade, Sumner, Cbaudler, Nye, Howard, Ramsay, Cole, and Representatives Banks, Butler, and a few others of I lesser note. Mr. Abbott gave a dc ! tailed account of his plans, and laid rbefore them maps and surveys of the territory proposed to he annexed to j tho United States. He stated that since tho success of the Liberals, there were fears entertained by tho leading men of Mexico of a new inva? sion of that country by the European powers, who we.ro enraged at the death of Maximilian, and also of a fresh repetition of tho intestine strifes which have torn the republic for so many years. Under these cir? cumstances, Juarez and tho better class of Mexican le aders entertain se? rious propositions of placing Mexico under tho protection of tho United States, on certain conditions, the most vital of which is that the}- shall be taken caro of in the way of secur? ing good positions in their native country. Abbott urged thal our Go? vernment should enter into negotia? tion with Juarez, and improve tho opportunity ta annex Mexico to the Union. He expatiated upon thc im? mense advantage it would secure to us commercially, and in a territorial point of view. Tho Senators and Representatives present listened to him attentively for nearly an hour, when each one gave his views on thc subject. MAXIMILIAN'S DEATH IN FBANCE. - The Moniteur, of Joby 5, says the as sassinatiou of tho Emperor Maximi? lian will arouse a feeling of universal horror. The act of infamy ordered hy Juarez stamps on the heads ol those who call themselves the repto sentatives of the Mexican Republic an ineffaceable stigma. The reproba tion of all civilized nations will b< the just punishment of a Govern ment which has at its hoad such ? ruler. The Sultan begged tho Eui peror to countermand tho fetes, or hearing of tho tragic end of Maxiuri lian. The Court has gone into mourn ing for thirty days. , In the Legislative Body, tho Presi dent announced that tho Empero Maximilian had fallen a victim to i detestable attack. He desired lundi; to boar testimony to tho reprobatioi of the Chamber at such a disgrace t< honor and civilization. The Presi dent's remarks were received will loud cheers. The Paris correspondence of tb London Globe says nu impression i beginning to be entertained in well informed quarters that the Frene] Government will be under the necea sity of engaging in a now war wit Mexico, to avenge the outrages in flicted on tho honor of Franco. Th murder of tho Emperor Maximilia is in reality an outrage on the Frcuc nation; the murder of French citizen another. France cannot, withoc loss of prestige, and without makin her name a by-word on tito America continent, submit to such indignities It is probable, however, that if sb embarks in a new war, she will mak no attempt to re-conquer Mexioo, o auy portion of tho territory, but wi content herself with bunring dow Vera Cruz or some other town on tb coast. The Ind?pendance says it is rumore that tho French Geyern ment, in ordt to free itself as nu.ch as possible froi tho responsibility of tho death < Maximilian, shortly intends publisl ing certain documents which wi provo that tho Government did a in its power to prevent such a sat guiuary denouement of tho Mexico drama, and that it used every meat of persuasion to induce tho Empen Moximilian to quit Moxico and r turn to Europe with tho Frent army.

The poor V.H well as thc "ich arc sufferers from its life-destroying in:''lonee. Tho symptoms of this dist ase vary greatly in thc different stages of the complaiut. It generally commences with a ocn><ation of fullness after eating, and a changeable, diminished or lost appetite. In somo instances, tho appetito is vora? cious, and when -in obedience to its promptings-a largo portion of food in taken into thc stomach, pain follows in that region, with general distress, nerv? ousness ana -nansen.

NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT, For tho Benefit of the LADIES' SOCIETY In Aitl of tho Suffering and Destitute Poor of thc South, Will tako placo In Washington, D. G., August 1, '67. riIHE ''Ladies' Society in aid of tho Suf _L fering and Destitute Poor of the Rout li" wonld respectfully and earnestly call tho attention of tho generous Northern publie to tho groat distress and fearful Butlering now prevailing in tho Southern States. Letter:* aro daily received from the South, from tho Generate Commanding. Govern ors, niiniutors am' eminent citizens, fur? nishing thc most heart-rending details of tho actual want, famine and starvation in their immediate neighborhood. Tho fol? lowing few extracts from tho very many letters received by tho Secretary and Ma? nagers of tho Society aro respectfully re? ferred to: H'OQUAUTBItS, ITU MILITARY DIST., (Mtssissir-n AND ARKANSAS,) YIOKSBURO, Miss., May 13, IbtiT. I am glad to see that thc attention of the gentle and humane ladies ol' tho North is being turned towards tho sad and desolate condition of this "ncc happy land. You, Madam, surrounded with thcplenty and comforts of a wealthy city, can scarcely oppreciato tho fact that,"in many parts of the South, whole communities are, by a failure in crops and the absence of money or its. equivalent, left m want of tho neces? saries or life; and that poor women, with large families of helpless' children, KO ac? customed to depend on the labor ol* others, thai now, with no husband, brother or servant to help, and no money, tboy do not know what to do or where to go for food; but are left in tho solitudes of these South? ern forests, in raga and gaunt with hunger, subsisting on what the mother or larger children can shoot or pick up in tho woods, or on what thc few neighbors, nearly as poor aa they are, can bring them. Officers of my acquaintance have nu t with such mothers, long alter dark, ont in the v.oods, with an old K?n just tired, und tho coon or possum just killed; have gone home with them and met the group of little Starvelings waiting patiently mother's re? turn with some of thc- only sort of food tie v had lasted for weeks; and women and children have been found within ? i\ty miles of the capital of ? Southern State, during thc pas! year, who had starved to death ttl their lonesome cabins. These cases of great distress arc rare in Southern cities, for there, even the most delicately bred can generally lind some work which they can d?) to keep the wolf from the door; but the farms or plantations in tho South are pe? culiarly se cluded, with miles of forest or swamp botwoi n them, poor roads, and tho stock and animals nearly all taken by thc war, thc famine, tho Hoods, or thc thioyos, who in such times infest a country, and thc distressed families uro often, by tho time necessity makes them want to leave-, too sick to travi.-! on foot, and there it uo tether way to go. xottr proposed entertainment, Madam, should ii produce only funds enough to re? lieve a small fraction of tho destitution of this country, will be a good beginning, and maybe followed in other cities North by similar appeals to people who have happily never felt the desolation and tho horrors which follow in the tracks of great armies of invasion. God speed your society in tho good work, is tho wish of. Madam, yours truly, E. O. C. ORD, Brevet Major-Gcueral. COLUMBIA, S. C., May 10, 18C7. Permit mo not only lo glvo you tho as? surance of my poor help in this your gen? erous endeavor to relieve our impn rorished and unhappy people, but to express to you in their behalf, that gratitude which is so eminently your due for thc generous .sym? pathy manifested by your organization for those among us in distress. Wishing you God speed in your noble work, 1 am. Ma? dam, very respectfully, your obedient ser? vant, JAMES L. OUR, Governor South Carolina. HEADQUARTERS, SECOND MILITA HY DIVISION, CHARLESTON, S. C., May 13, IS??. Tho excellent purpose you have in view cannot bo too much commended. The lib? erality of tho Government of tho United States, and the munificent contributions already made for the relief of tho wide spread destitution in the states, lcavec great numbers unprovided?with food and clothing. And until an afmudaut harvest enables tho people herc to do more foi themselves, I trust tho ever generous and prosperous committees of tho North will continue their noble gifts to this imp rel? ished and afflicted population. With my best wishes for tho success of your under? taking, I romain, Madam, very respectful? ly, DANIEL E. 8I0KLES, * Commanding Second Military District. - * ? HEADQUARTERS, FIRST MILITARY DIVISION, RlomiOND, YA., May ll, 1307. Mrs. ITarlovce Mather-MY DEAR M ADAM I shall bo too glad if anything I can sax will aid tho society in its noble work. A largo proportion of "tho people of the Soul! have suffered and many aro still suffering almost to the limit of endurance from tht devastation of war and subsequent failnn of crops. They aro making overy pbssibh exertion to revive their various branchei of industry and become si lf-suppoVting The liberal assistance which tho Northen people aro well able to give, will relievo i great amount of distress, and will no donb bo sufficient to placo thc poor ol the Bout] beyond further suffering for food. Tin recent manifestations of an almost nniver Hal desire throughout thc South for a n ail' fraternal re-union with the North, may wol Borve to stimulate thc generous sympathie of tho Northern people, while nothing coull do more to foster and encourago thc growtl of a healthy sontimcnt in tho South thai tho generous aid which it is tho mission o your society to invoke. T sincerely hopi thc noble efforts of tho Bociety may resul In tho most abundant success. I am, dca Madam, very respectfully, vour obedien servant, J. M. SCHOFIELD, Maj. Gon. GRKENSBORO, May 14, 18G7. Have just returned from a tour throng' tho soction made memorablo by "Sher man'a march to tho seaboard." Poverty suffering and destitution of the pcoplo cai scarcely bo realised- living in huts, rudd; constructed of charred boards, of rails boughs and mud, you aromet by hollow oycu, emaciated forms, whoso first word aro "bread"-for something to etiflc th cravings of hunger. In ono placo, I wit? nessed tho body of a child borne to its last rest, on a boara, in the same rags in which it died. In another, Tour females existed ! for a week on two pounds of corn,together | with somo roots. Ou tho road, I met nu? ntin r who had walked twelve miles to beg some food for her children. Manv other instances can bo given of sad suffering from actual -want of food. Verv truly, FREDERICK WATTS, M. D. Tho public have already responded nobly to tho call, bnt not to the extent required to keep starvation from making victims of many. Additional funds must bc raised at once"; lbs case is urgent. Tho Lady Ma? nagers, after mature deliberation, have decided to bring it before the generous people of the North, by giving a Grand National Entertainment", trusting to their active co-operation and sympathizing aid for the immediate supply of means to en? able them to purchase and forward food to starving thousands. The Grand Na? tional Entertainment will bo given at Washington, D. C., August 1,1807. 300,000 tickets will be offered for salo, at $2 each.
