Tbk Now York Herald gives Phlooaa T. Bar-
nmn an airing on hie nomination to Congress,
and eaye: Ho is Just as complete a humbug in
politics as he was os a showman. In this re
spect, however, ho will bo a fit and proper repre
sentative for Bridgeport,' Connecticut. In fact,
ho will appropriately represent the wholo State
ot Connecticut in Congress. By all means let
Barnum bo elected. It will be the last and big
gest humbug ot his life, and will appropriately
crown the edlflco of humbug which ho has been
for so many years ongaged in building up.
The Salt Lake Yidette announces that the
work of " gentle expulsion " by the Mormons is
still progressing. On the 26th of January two
prominent citizens received the mysterious no
tice to leave the place or take the consequences.
Accepting the invitation as inevitable, they
left. There surely ought to bo a United States
military power located near Salt Lake sufficient
ly strong to protect, respectable citizens and keep
these insolent Mormons in order.
“ Ours,” said the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher,
in a recent lecture on sulTrago, before the Brook
lyn Fraternity—“ours is a superior civilization.
St. Paul Only adapted himself to the narrow
views ol the Greeks, whom he was addressing,
and his teaching is in no wise to be considered
binding upon us, who are blessed with the light
of tho nineteenth century.” Happy, happy peo
ple who live in the nineteenth century, and are
permitted to get drunk on the black wine of fa
naticism. Poor, poor St. Paul, to whom it was
only allowed to speak the “ words of truth and
soberness."
A Washington letter says Ashley has a dar
key on baud to testify on the impeachment ques
tion. The “ culled individual ” and “ tho great
impcacher” hold frequent consultations in n
committee room at the capitol, and his testimony
will doubtless be very important; at any rate, it
is highly necessary to she success of the under
taking, that a negro should have something to do
with it. Tho probability is, that it would fail if
managed exclusively by white men.
In one of the churches at Albany, New York,
war has been declared against moustaches, the
lemale portion of the congregation having de
clared an unalterable determination to bo kissed
by no man wearing the nasty things.
The members of the Tennessee Legislature,
who have been in session fully fourteen months
of the two years for which they were elected,
now have up a measure to pay themselves four
dollars a day in gold.
The New York Tribune says: The Judiciary
Committee’s report of the investigation in the
matter of returning to rebels their confiscated
property shows that in Louisiana alone property
to the amount of $50,000,000 had been restored
to rebels by order of the President. Tho mil
lions tbnt wero stolen lrorn the rebels in Louisi
ana by Butler, Banks & Co., have never been re
stored, and, of course, are not included in tho
Tribune's estimate.
Henry House, a Irecdman, has been sentenc
ed by the City Court of Montgomery to twenty
years imprisonment in the Penitentiary for the
murder of his wife.
MtBSouni is slow in giving tho negro the right
to vote. Tho hill to submit tho question to the
people has passed the Senate, but hangs fire in
tire House. Governor Fletcher should call out
the militia, and hasten up tho dilatory.

The Plan Who Ulnaea tho Way,
Wendell Phillips is tho man who furbishes
brains to tho Radicnl party. Ho is tho great pio
neer—ho blazes the way and marks out tho path
they shall tread in their work of destruction.—
Ho says to ono man, go, and he goeth; to an
other, come, and he cometh. Even Brother
Bccchcr consents to walk by tho deceitful glim
merings of Wendell’s dark lantorn. Wendell
mndo a speech at Chicago last Thursday night,
lie is at least a bold man, and said some things
which ought to arrest tho attention of all in this
direction with whom seif is not tho sole pre
dominating idea. Tho following is an abstract
of his lecture, as wo find it reported in the Chi
cago Post :
What brought on tho war? It was the con
flict between two ideas, as Mr. Seward told us at
Rochester, before he lost his brains. [Applauso.]
In 1861 was rovealed the irrepressible contest.—
Now what is the remedy ? Tho prophet at Ply
mouth Church and tho Secretary of State say,
put the pieces of the bursted gun together, fill it
with powder, apply hot coals and hope it won't
burst. [Laughter.]
He would say of tho Thirty-ninth Congress
that it has conducted the nflairs of the nation
on principles which, if a business man had ap
plied to his business would have made him
jnnkrupt at once. The Congress has not omit
ted every good act. It has given us a Bureau, a
Civil Rights bill and and a glimpse at negro suf
frage, but it shohld not have left a moment
wasted in trying to put the parts of the nation
together. Except in the past week Congress
has done nothing toward reconstruction. The
South is as firmly set in its way as she was at
first,—defiantly convinced that her barbarism
is as good as our civilization. It says when
labor touches governmeut it is a revolution.
Tho white race at the South is a race with
convictions which half a dozen defeats have not
washed out. How many dcleats would it take
to wasli the Declaration of Independence out of
Massachusetts-'and Illinois? In spite of a hun
dred Bull Runs wc should still say, "All men
are born free and equal.” Had Jeficrson Davis
succeeded lie would have had the right to en
force his doctrines. Wc conquered, and we
lmve a right to enforce ours. Wc are dealing
with a race that believes its principle^ as strong
ly ns we do ours. Here in the West a nation
lms been constructed by the talent, the blood and
tho money of the East, and it can no more be
separated from the East than you can cut off a
slice from the Rocky Mountains. 8<> the Nortli
must reconstruct the Soutli just as the East con
structed the West, by planting its civilization
there. When Lincoln was elected, the South
saw that she must remodel the Government to
her ideas or site must go out of the Union.
Tho party that conquers, it is well settled,
lias the right to so stamp out rebellion that it
shall not again arise. We have laid three hun
dred thousand martyrs in their graves. Wc
have pledged the credit ot the country for three
thousand million dollars; we have mortgaged
the real estate of the country for two genera
tions, and now the voice of justice demands
that we fix unalterable guarantees for future
safety.
It we had it good President it would not mat
ter what laws we lmve; and as we have a bad
President it does not matter what laws we
have. Our President is a traitor; lie is labor
ing to save the Soutli from the conscqnences
ol her defeat, and lie knows how. Once put
Southern statesmen inside the Capital, and wo
give them power to light over tho battle again
inside the Government.
The speaker said that he would notice next
Hint crowd that lmve wriggled their way up to
Congress, nobody knows how. It the Soutli
should bring a bushel basket ot her money and
say “you shall have that money if you vote right,
and wi will build palaces tor you it yon do it,”
he knew one Congressman in Massachusetts who
would take the oiler at once.
Tho amendments cry to the white men ot tho
Soutli, "come back and bo tho Government and sit
down with us. We hope to put you under such
motives that you will by and by admit the blacks
to vole, lint we do not compel it.” Has the
South, said llie speaker, ever obeyed a single

The Peteiisbuhq Index renews the lament on
the continued imprisonment of Jeff. Davis: And
this man is dying meantime. Injustice preying
upon his soul, confinement wearing out hishovy,
the neglect of his own people sickening his
heart Surely tho crowning shame ot those
which disgrace the last six years of American
history is this.”
Some one, who probably has been noticing
the sublime aud masterly position of the South
ern press on tho military bill, says a pin has as
much head as a great many writers, and a good
deal more point.
The Chicago Post, in a thundering rage, asks:
Have the members of the present Congress ne
ther eyes to see, nor ears to hear ? Wc think it
doubtful about the eyes; hut there is no dispu
ting the cars—they are there sure, “sticking out
a feet." .

There is not a man strong enough to stand up

Grant, the most loved man in America, when
he said, "I put on the uuiform of no party, fell
in the estimation of the people. He is the high
constable of the nation; lie is paid to make our
flag respected in New Orleans. It tie does not
do it he fails in his duty.
This is the crisis ol our nation. Twenty -four
thousand changes will re-elect Andy Johnson,
though the Republican party is now so strong.
We do not know bow it may change. Common
sense says, take the present hour. There is no
hope save in Congress. It may say tho Pies -
dential clmir must be vacated, and it will be
done. The first obstacle is the President; clear
that away; send down Northern capital; make
it safe for the Northern man to live in the South,
and you make the nation homogenous aud

Fatal Duel.—The New Orleans Picayune
gives the following account oi a fatal duel, which
occurred near that city a few days since:
The parties engaged were Messrs. Edward Lc-
fevre and George ^enin. Both were young mar
ried men. Geuiii was accused of taking im
proper liberties with the lady of Mr. Lefcyro du
ring the dance, at the hall mentioned. Itnmcdi
ately thereafter lie was called to account by Mr.
L Mr. Genin answered the accusations ot Mr.
Lcfevre by an assault, and a challenge followed.
Preliminaries were arranged, anJ Thursiky
morning both parties met. At tho first tire Le
lev re fed dead, and Genin was mortally wounded
in the neck. The latter lingered uutil yesterday
morning, when lie died. The body ot Lefevre
was taken to the opposite side ol the river by
his friends. Now that both parties are dead, w e
presume their remains will he brought to the city
ior interment. .
