On Reconstruction.
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.

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.

Dyspepsia is ?: id to bc the disease of
America. Its victims may bo found in all
stations of life. 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. Flatulency and
heart-burn invariably attend this disenso.
For all these symptoms,
HOSTETTEll'S STOMACH BITTERS
will be found an invaluable household
remedy, as its alterative, corrective and
restorative properties are derived exclu?
sively from roots and plaids, thc virtues
of which arc acknowledged by pharmaceu?
tics and physicians. Separately they have
often been prescribed by the profession,
but were never combined until Dr. llostet

HEALTH-RESTORING RITTERS,
which have proved a sovereign remedy for

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

cannot bo too much commended. The lib?

already made for the relief of tho wide
spread destitution in the states, lcavec

clothing. And until an afmudaut harvest
enables tho people herc to do more foi

prosperous committees of tho North will
continue their noble gifts to this imp rel?

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

able them to purchase and forward food
