HENRY WARD BEECHER ON “RE
CONSTUCTION.”
The Boston Post contains a sketch of a
lecture delivered in that city on Tuesday
evening by tlic Rev. nenry Ward Becclief, on
“reconstruction,” from which wc quote. His
views are eminently just and remarkable, and
it is strange that the common sense and nat
ural instincts of tlio Northern people do not
lead more of them to agree with him. In
view of the many good things contained in
Mr. Beecher’s speech, we may overlook his
foolish idea that the Southern people arc ac
customed to regard the slavo as a as

M.vkylasd.—During the war the Union
Legislature of Maryland passed a registration
law, which, it is stated, disfranchises n ma
jority of the voters of the State. The peo
ple thus disfranchised, and many who are not
so disfranchised, arc about to hold a convcn
tion in Baltimore for the purpose of giving
an expression of opinion on tlic subject, in
the hope of effecting the repeal of this law.
The convention was held on the 24th instant.
Colonel Osborne, Assistant Commis
sioner of refugees, freedmen, &c., for the
District of Florida, lias submitted n plan to
Major General Howard, for the consideration
of the Government, for colonizing the freed
men of Florida, and hc suggests that the
United States purchase from Florida all that
portion of the State below 28 degrees of lati
tude, and give it a territorial form of govern
ment, none but freedmen to be permitted to
buy or pre-empt lands, and each head of a
family to have eight acres.
The Missouri Democrat says: “From
authentic sources wc lenm that the Govern
ment has concluded to garrison the forts and
protect the routes on the plains with colored
troops, of whom at least three full regiments
will shortly be dispatched to the Indian coun
try. The intention is to afford entire securi
ty to travelers and caravans, and put a final
stop to tho depredations of the savages.”
fg* Barnum’s book lias not met with suc
cess at thejliands of the English critics. The
Court Journal reviewer 6ays:—“Barnum’s
new book, ‘The Humbugs of the World,’ has
disappointed us. It is a dull affair altogeth
er, with an immense deal of bookmaking
about it, and second-hand, threadbare infor
mation respecting Eve; the tempting serpent;
the Delphic oracle; mediaeval pretenders to
illumination; Count Cagliostro; and various
other persons and matters about which wc
care nothing, and know quite as much, if not
a great deal more, than Barnum himself We
doubt if he bad any hand in the composition
at all, and suspect lfis latest humbug is putting
his name to a composition vamped up by
some mercenary hack.”

might not expect tho South to do. Wo could
not expect that men who had to submit to an
overpowering military force should rejoice in
their downfall, and spring up to kiss the men
that whipped them. The men of the South
were as sincere when they went into the war
ns those of the North, and now that they are
conquered, wc could not ask them to Iks joy
ful or jubilant. Wc must not expect that
men who had relinquished slavery upon com
pulsion would engage with alacrity in the
work of emancipation. If this result had been
the consequence of a long discussion and they
had voted emancipation, wc might have rca
son for the course of remark thnt is indulged
in; not otherwise. We must not expect that
men educated under institutions totally the
reverse of ours will let them go in a day and
seek new ones from their conquerors. He
was not surprised to read that Yankees are
not popular at the South, and thnt when the
army goes some of the Yankees must go with
it. Being defeated, they arc not disposed to
accept superfluous and intrusive advico from
those who have defeated them. We must
not expect men who havo regarded negroes
as inferior beings all their lives, shall receive
complacently the doctrine of cqunlity and
citizenship in its relations to the black man.
Sometimes it would be well for us to remem
ber the homes wc live in. Hc did not believe
there were a dozen places in Brooklyn where
a colored man conla obtain work, unless all
the white men should leave. We, who still
indulge in this prejudice, should not blame
the people of the South who do not believe
that society can be reorganized with the
negro as an equal. Nor should we expect
that they would know how even when they
try to treat the negro fairly, for they have
been brought up to trent him as a beast. Wc
may set up schools and churches in tbc South
in such way as to be antagonistic to
Southern schools and Southern churches.
One kindly disposed white man in tbc South
is worth twenty in Massachusetts. There
may bo such a precipitate zeal of philanthro
py for them as will defeat its own work.
Legislation will not alleviate peejudicc. fit
won’t change unkind feelings into kind ones.
The South must recover by labor, and it is
only new industry that will bring licr back.
She is fast finding this out. Her success de
pends upon cotton; cotton cannot be had
without black labor, and black labor can
not be had unless negroes nre kindly treated.
So self-interest will teach them the right
way out of the difficulty. The blacks should
become land-holders as fast ns possible. The
glory of the North is diversified and minute
industry. He would not object to making
property a preliminary qualification for suf
frage, as an inducement to industry and
thrift.
Mr. Beecher closed his lecture with an elo
quent appeal for justice and love, as the only
sure basis of reconstruction, nnd advocated a
spirit of magnanimity. He protested against
the vindictive punishment against Jefferson
Davis, as inexpedient and uncalled for.
Tlic era of destruction had passed, nnd that
of restoration had come. This new position
of allairs required a change of tactics. His
remarks on this point made a profound im

complain, for they have all done a thriving trade.
The completion of the bridges on tbo Western
and Atlantic Railroad will give our merchants
increased facilities for replenishing their stocks,
and articles that have been scarce for tho past
fortnight will soon be found in the hands of
dealers here.
Cotto.x.—The unfavorable advices from Liver
pool and New York have had tho effect of ma
king our market dull and languid, and sellers

“.Mr. Kerr’s bill, which gives to the South

The man who “saw the joke,” it is
said, used a spy-glass.
gT There are three things women throw
away—their time their, their health and
money.
“Do you keep nails here ?” asked a sleepy
looking lad, walking into a hardware shop
the other day. “Yes,” replied the gentleman
ly proprietor; “we keep all kind of nails.
What kind will you have sir, and how many?”
‘-Well,” said the boy, slideng towards the
door, “FU take a pound of finger nails, and
a pound and a half of toe nails.”
The Boston Traveller tells this story: “A
keen-witted merchant, who liked his cup,
somewhat surprised bis solicitous friends by
yielding to them and signing a temperance
pledge. But, to their horror they saw no
change in his ways, and reproved and remon
strated, as in duty bond. He defended his
honor, and to wipe off all stain, produced the
documents which hc lind signed, and showed
tiiat it was invalid, as it was without an in
ternal revenue stamp.”
Dabbs 3Iakes a Pint.-Friend Dabbs walks
into a “Dry Grocery” the other day. “Can
I do anything for you ?” says Dickey.
“Yes," says Dabbs; “but I’ll bet a dollar
you won’t.”
“Done,” said Dickey. “Wliat is it?”
“Credit nie for five dollars worth of your
track.”
“Lost, by thunder.”
—“There,” said Quilp, sipping liis Y'eute
Clicquot at dinner—“there is a wine good
enough for either world I” “They don’t drink
wine in tho other world,” said Q. junior—a
lad of fourteen—“but something stronger, I
should fancy.”—“What makes you think so?"
said the governor, looking up with something
like astonishment in his jolly face. Because
it is the ‘world of spirits,’ you know.” “That
comes,” said Q. “of sending boyste Sunday
School.”

f-iW 1 A lady coming from Montreal to Port
land had bought a love of a silk at the former
place, and after entering the cars a custom
house officer asked her if she had anything
that required examination. Very innocently
-he produced her valise, the said silk lying
in her lap all the while, done up in a coarse
brown paper, and a*kcd the officer to hold
that parcel while she exhibited the contents
of tbe valise. Tbc innocent victim, not sus

The late King of the Belgians has divided
bis fortunes, estimated at something about
eighty millions francs, into four parts. The
first three are reserved for three children, the
Duke dc Brabant, the Empress Charlotte, and
the Count de Flanders. Out of the fourth
part will lie paid the legacies and pensions
which the King grants to all the members ot
his household, from the highest to the lowest}
The surplus will revert to the Count dc Flan
ders, who has already a pension from the na
tion of one hundred and fifty thou>and francs,
and which will probably be augmented be

pTA mart young student of anatomy
remarked, in the bearing of bis sister, that
the reason there were 60 many old maids in
the world was owing to their tight lacing,
which so hardened their lienrts as to make
them impenetrable to the shafts of Cupid.
“And the reason there are so many old batch-
elors,” retorted the si.-ier, “i* because of their
strapping, they cannot get on their knees to
declare their passion!”

Science ol Kissing.
People will kiss, yet not one in one hun
dred knows how to extract bliss from lovely
lips, no more than they know how to make
diamonds out of charcoal. And yet it is easy
at least for us! This little item is not alone
for new beginners, but for the mnny who go
to it like hunting coons or shelling corn.—
First know whom you are to kiis. Don’t
make a mistake although a mistake may be
good. Don’t jump up like a trout for a fly
and smack a woman on the neck, on the car.
or on the comer of their forehead, on tlic end
ot the nose, or knock off her waterfall, or jerk
her bonnet ribbon, in basts to get through.—
The gentleman should be a little the tallest.
He should have a clean face, a kin 1 eye, a
mouth full of expression instead of tobacco.
Don’t kiss everybody, including nasty little
dogs male or female. Don’t sit down to it;
stand up. Need not be anxious about get
ting in a crowd. Two persons are plenty to
corner and catch a kiss; more persons spoil
the sport. Stand firm; it won’t hurt after
you are used to it. Take the left hand of the
lady in your right; let your hat go to—any
place out ol the way; throw the left hand
gently over the shoulder of the lady, and let
the hand fall down upon tho right side to
ward the belt. Don’t be in a hurry; draw’
her gently, lovingly to your heart; her head
will fall lightly upon your shoulder,
and a handsome shoulder strap it
makes! Don’t be in a hurry send a
little life down your left arm and let it know
its business. Her left hand is in your right,
let there be an expression to that, not like
the grip of a vice, but a gentle clasp, full of
electricity, thought and respect. Don’t be
in a hurry!—Her head lies careless on your
shoulder! You are nearly heart to heart!
Look down into her half closed eyes! Gentb
yet manfully, press her to your bosom ! Stan
firm and Providence will give you strength"
for the ordeal! Be brave, but don’t be in a
hurry. Her lips are almost open ! Lean light
ly forward with your bead, not the body.—
j Take good aim; the lips meet—the eyes close
—the heart opens—the soul rides the storms,
troubles and sorrows of lift, (don’t lie in a
hurry)—heaven opens before you—the world
shoots from under your feet as a meteor flash!
es across the eveniag sky, (don’t be afraidHp
the nerves dance before the just erected altar
of love as zephyrs dance with the dew trim
med flowers—the heart forgets its bitterness,
and the art of kissing is learned. No noise,
no fuss, no fluttering and squirming like book
impoled worms. Kissing don’t hurt; it don’t
require a brass band to make it legal. Don’t
job down on a beautiful mouth as if you were
spearing for frogs! Don’t grab and yank the
40a45 ; lady as if she was a struggling colt! Don’t
| muss her hair, scratch down her collar, bite
”a408 Iler c * lee k squizzle her rich ribbons, and leave

How Slavery is Regarded in Egypt.—
The Egyptians of the present day entertained
the same old-fashioned ideas in regard to
slavery which have been prevalent in that
country ever since the days of the Pharaohs.
Lady Duff Gordon, whose charming letters
from Thebes and Cairo, written at intervals
from 1863, to 1865, have recently been pub
lished in book form, narrates the following
conversation (substantially) between herself
and an aged Moslem, or Muslim, os she writes
the word:
Sheykli Toosuff.—Wc are all the children
of God.
Lady Cordon—Do you Muslims call your
selves so, or only the slaves of God ?
Sheylch Toosuff.—It is all one, children or
slaves. Does not a good man care for both
tenderly alike ?
“Pray observe,” adds Lady Gordon, “the
oriental feeling here. Slave is a term of af
fection, not contempt; and remember the
centurion’s servant (slave) whom he loved.”
Rampant Rebels.—Returned rebel soldiers
walk our streets in grey uniforms and infest
the skating-ponds, with light-licaded females
clustering around them like flies around a
sugar hogshead. The windows of rebel shop
keepers arc filled with portraits of Lee, Da
vis, Jackson and Beauregard, Job Stuart and
other worthies of the infamous rebellion, and
no effort is spared by their adulators and par
tisans to make apparent the fact that they
are just as defiant as ever.—Baltimore Ameri
