Frnm our Evening Edition of YesterdAy
The Administration Platform.
The ‘‘National Union Club” of Washington,
of which lion. Alexander W. Randall is Presi
dent, lias adopted the following resolutions as
its platform:
V Resolved, That we are now, as heretofore,
ardently attached to the Union of the States
under the Constitution of the United States;
that we deny the right of any State to secede,
and hold that all attempts at secession are mill
*\ n VJ U ' that nil the Stalls are now States of
this Union, as before the rebellion, and we
deny the power of the General Government,
under the Constitution, to exclude a State from
the Union or to govern it as a Territory.
-. llcHotved' Tliat our confidence in the abili
-1 1!, patriotism ami statesmanship of
1 resident Johnson is undiminished, aud we
cordially approve the general policy of his ad
ministration.
2 .Resolved, That we indorse the resolution
ot Congress of July, 1861, declaring the object
ot the war, on our part, to be the defense ancj
maintenance of the supremacy of the Constitu
tion and the preservation of the Union, with
the dignity, equality, and rights of the several
States unimpaired.
4. Resolved, That, in the language of the
Chicago platform of 18150, and as quoted by the
late President Lincoln in his first inaugural ad
dress, “The maintenance inviolate of the rights
of each State, and especially of the rights of
each Slate to order and control its own domes
tic institutions according to its own judgment
exclusively, subject only to the Constitution of
the United States, is essential to that balance of
power on which the' perfection and endurance
of our political fabric depends.”
5. Resolved, That under the Constitution of
the United States is reserved to the several
States the right to prescribe the qualifications
of electors therein ; and that it would be sub
versive of tin- principles of our Government for
Congress fb force universal suffrage upon any
portion of tlie country in opposition to the
known wishes of the citizens thereof.
<>. Resolved, “ That this Union must lie and
remain one aud indivisible foreverthat the
war for its preservation having been brought to
a triumphant close, and the supremacy of the
Constitution vindicated, the rights of the States
under the Constitution are to be maintained in
violate, and that loyal citizens within the States
and districts lately overrun by rebellion are en
titled to all the rights guaranteed to them by ’
tiie Constitution.
7. Resolved, That all the States of the Union
are entitled, by the Constitution of the United
States, to representation in the councils rtf the
nation, and that all loyal members duly, elected
and returned, having the requisite qualifications
u« prescribed by law, should be admitted to
their scats in Congress without unnecessary de
lay by their respective Houses, each House
being the judge of election, returns and quali
fications of its own members.
8. Unsolved, That I reason is a crime which
should be punished, and that we are opposed to
compromising with traitors or bartering “uni
versal amnesty” for “universal suffrage.”
Resolved, That the payment of the national
debt is a sacred obligation, never to be repu
diated ; and that, no debt or obligation incurred
in any manner whatever in aid of treason or re
bellion, should ever be assumed or paid.
10. Resolved, That we cordially endorse the j
restoration policy of President Johnson as wise,
patriotic, constitutional, and in harmony with
the loyal sentiment and purpose of the people
in the suppression of the rebellion; with tiie
platform on which lie was elected ; with tiie de
clared policy of the late President Lincoln, the
action of Congress and the pledges given during
tiie war.
11. Resolved, That the nation owes a lasting
debt of gratitude to tiie soldiers and sailors ot
the late war, for the suppression of the rebel
lion, and that the families of the fallen heroes,
who died that the country might live, are the
wards of the people, mid should lie cared lor by
flic Government.
A Speech fkom a Connecticut Patriot.—
'l l"! Democracy of New York city appropriate
ly celebrated the anniversary of the birth of
Thomas Jefferson on the Kith instant, by a fes
tival at ttie Maison Doree, at Union Square.
Ex-Governor Seymour, of Connecticut, and
Chaunccy Burr, of New Jersey, were among
the speakers. Mr. Seymour, in concluding his
remarks, said :
“In Connecticut the Constitution would
never have been adopted had not Ellsworth
gone convention and assured them, on
his oath, that the Constitution did not attempt
to coerce sove ruuxn I>oHie«, defining his mean
ing ol such bodies as States in their political
capacity. Another of the fathers asserted that
there, was no power in the Constitution to force
a Sta e back into the Union, as such action
would involve tin* good and the bad in one com
mon calamity. Ilad he lived to this day he
would see that state of things fully carried out.
In the struggle to come we have to bring the
flock together and recruit, it may he, from the
other side, in order to preserve the heritage
left us by our fathers. The oil repeated senti
ment of Andrew Jackson, “The Union must
and shall be preserved,” had been tortured and
misconstrued. That sentiment was patriotic; !
but he who uttered it had no idea of coercion
as advocated at the present day.
It. was impossible that the boy who saw his
native home laid in ashes by Tarleton, in com
mand ol the British foe, and who was compell
ed, in consequence, to fly with his mother into
the mountains ol Tennessee, could have wished
that so dire a fate would ever befall his beloved
native State. In matters of dispute, it is not by
swamp angels or ships of war that our country
men are to be. held in union, Jml by compro
mises and peace measures, proving the poet
right when he said that ‘ the pen is mightier
than the sword.’ Now we have in vogue the
Asiatic form of Government—great armies,
great taxes, and that conjunction of the purse
and the sword that the Whigs, in days past, pre
tended to fear so greatly. Besides, we have
lost tlie habeas corpus. Sonic think it has now
been restored ; but be that as it may, a terrible
precedent has been set by which a fanatical ma
jority in Congress ltuvy suspend it. at any time.
Our mission is to restore the Constitution as it
was understood by our fathers, or else we may
be sure our form of Government will give way
to an oligarchy or a despotism. The autumn
elections will push the present Congress from i
their seats, and then will come the time, to at
tcyipt a restoration of the Union on its original
foundations of State rights. In associations of
this kind there is much to be done, and after
awhile we may be able to congratulate ourselves
on having done our duty in the great cause, of
advancing peace and constitutional liberty.”
A Remarkable IlAii.-STon.w.-rOur vicinity
was visited, last Sunday afternoon, with the
thickest and longest continued liail-storm which
has ever fallen here within the memory of the
oldest inhabitants. In the liail-storm of 1859,
and ot hereof previous years, there fell larger
hail-stones, but they were not as thick and the
storms were shorter. This storm commenced
suddenly, attained its greatest fury in a very
short time, and continued about twenty
minutes. During the morning the weather
was threatening. At about 1 o’clock, p. m.,
the thunder could be heard in occasional peals,
with the distant rumbling of heavy winds,
which reached here about !> o’clock. The hail
stones were at first larger than cranberries, and
resembled them in shape. As they grew larger
and faster they appeared like lozenges, and
when the storm was most furious the stones
'varied from the size of a plum to that of a hen’s
egg, many of them being as large as the latter.
From what we can learn, wc think the gen
eral direction of the wind was from south-west
to north-east, stud that its effects were not felt
at. a greater distance than two miles to the
north-west of the. city, and the same distance
to the south-east. We have not been able to
learn how far it went in a north-cast direc
tion.
Fruit of all kinds, cotton and vegetables, all
along the track of the storm, were almost en
tirely destroyed, and thousands of window
glasses were broken. Trees were entirely
stripped of their leaves, and many large trees,
we learn, were blown down. The damage
done to orchards, gardens and crops, in this
county, is immense.— [Natchez Democrat.
An Accident.—A letter from the proprietor
of the Express , who spent a few days in Union,
informs us that Mr. Jeter, the President of the
Spartanburg and Union railroad met with a se
rious accident two weeks ago. lie was riding
on the front of a push car with his legs hanging
down, when his feet caught on the cross ties,
which threw him on the track. The car dragged
him six or eight feet, and ran off. One of the
wheels passed over his body, fracturing the left
arm above the elbow and severely bruising his
right thigh. He was doing well and could at
tend to the ordinary business of his office. The
President was in fine spirits, and hoped that
the road from Alston to the river would be fln
islied by Juiy. —Spartanburg Express, Zbth ult.
The llair.—Stiff hair is sometimes the sign
of obstinacy, sleek locks denote patience, a cur
ly head is always accompanied by wit and a love
of pleasure. Baldness is the sign of an active
mind, unless the bald man brush his back hair .
forward to cover flic, front; that is the mark of
a mean and vulgar spirit, or, which is still
worse, unless he wears a wig, in which case he
must, unquestionably, be classed among the
snobs. Premature grey hair denotes a misan
thropy, continued suffering, whether physical
or moral, excessive labor or dissipation. With
regard to those abundant locks which time is
powerless to bleach, they are the badge of an
even disposition, and of a mediocre intellect.
The Hermitage to be Made a Military
Academy. —ln the Tennessee State Senate,
April 24, a bill parsed a first reading tendering
the mansion house at the Hermitage (Jackson’s
residence) and two lihndred acres of ground,
on condition that the (United States Govern
ment would establish fcn it a branch of the
West Point Military Academy or some other
public institution. The rest of the estate, about
three hundred acres, is.to be sold, and the pro
ceeds are to be applied to the payment of the
bonds issued by the State in payment for the
whole property.

THE RECONSTRUCTION
PLAN OP RECONSTRUCTION. ]
Nnw Yokk, April 30.—' This •Tribune's special'
says: After four months of the most search
ing investigation and dispassionate discussion
among the members in Congress, it is believed
the plan will meet with the entire sanction of
all shades off opinion and sentiment. Thus far
no man among the Union members of either
house has expressed any dissent from this
plan. The friends of the President gaVe assur
ance to-night that, if Congress carries out the
scheme in good faith it will receive his co-opc
ration. Neither of his organs ticre, it is stated,
will commit themselves upon the proposition,
to-morrow. Tbad Stevens avows his readiness
to acquiesce in tiie measure. The Lieutenant
General expresses his approval, and no measure
of Congress lias challenged such universal
assent in all questions. It is not anticipated
that any material amendments will be carried,
and the States will be invoked to convene their
Legislatures so as to secure the adoption by
loyal States, thus stimulating concurrent action
by States lately in rebellion.
The World's special says a member of the
Reconstruction Committee called on the Presi
dent yesterday evening and presented him with
a copy of the plan t hey had adopted, and asked
him what he thought of it. He said lie would
let them know after he had carefully examined
it. He said be thought there was considerable
backing down from all their former positions.
The Times’ special says : It is known that
Senator Johnson and Representatives Grider
and Rogers only voted in the negative ; tiie af
firmatives must be Senators Fessenden, Grimes,
Harris, Howard and Williams, and Representa
tives Strong. Wash.burne, of Illinois, Morrill,
Bingham, Conklin, Bontwell and Blow. Many
members assert their belief that the entire pro
position can lie carried through both houses by
a two-thirds vote.
The Herald's special says : It is everywhere
looked upon as a very diminutive animal to re
pay the long labor of the mountain. Common
rumor attributes its production to Mr. Roscoe
Conklin, from the Oneida District, New York,
in conjunction with the massive intellect of
Chevalier Forney. Both wings of the party are
out oi humor at the result of tiie extensive re
searches and elaborate investigations of this
wonderful inquisition. Each of the antagonis
tic parties claim that nothing is accomplished
by the scheme suggested, but as it don’t exact
ly controvert their opinions, and is tiie nearest
to their peculiar ideas that can be obtained,
they subscribe to it.
New York, April 30.—The Tribune says of \
the plan of reconst ruction agreed upon by the
committee: Tiie exultation of pro-rebels over
tiie inability to agree on the joint committee of
fifteen has proved Hi-tinted:' The committee
have agreed on a proposition which will to-day
be reported to both houses, and which lias re
ceived the vote —12 to 3-—of all but the Copper
head members. We may, therefore, aet-ept and
consider it as the Union party’s plan of recen
struction. Our own preference so a much
shorter and simpler programme is well known.
Universal amnesty, impartial suffrage—such are
its conditions, and tiie whole of them. •
The Herald says: The plan is ingeniously
contrived. It is considerably milder than any
thing heretofore emanating from the committee,
and nearer the policy and views of President
Johnson. It may be unnecessary in some
things, superfluous in others, and unfair in its
continued exclusion of the Southern States, af
ter having, on their part, fulfilled the condition
j of the administration charged with discretiona
-1 ry powers over the whole subject, but we have
now only to await tin* issue before the Houses, j
The Times says: The scheme would seem j
sweeping enough to satisfy the most exacting
Radical. It could hardly be more sweeping in
deed, unless it provided for the wholesale con
fiscation and extermination or banishment of
the Southern people. As a plan of pacification
and reconstruction the whole thing is worse
than a burlesque. It might lie styled a farce
were the country not in the midst of a very
serious drama. Its proper designation would
be a plan to prolong indefinitely the exclusion |
of the South, and compromise by imposing j
conditions to which tiie Southern people never
will submit.
Tiie World says : Tiie purpose of the scheme
would not have been more apparent had it been
labeled by the committee an infallible plan for
preventing the South from voting in the next
Presidential election. So transparent is its in
tent that it liiils entirely in respect to its second
ary object—ot putting the onus of exclusion ou |
the South itself. It is not’an honest proposi
tion. It is not offered witli any expectation of
its acceptance, but with a liberate design that it
shall be rejected.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, April 30.— Tiie Commercial's
special says : The Austrian Minister lias adver
tised his furnished residence, and expects tiie
next European steamer will bringjnews of the
sailing of Austrian troops for Mexico, which
will insure his receiving his passports from
Secretary Seward.
There isa great hostility to the reconstruction
scheme. Both tiie National Intelligencer and the
Republican oppose it.
Quartermaster General Meigs has submitted
a very interesting report to the Secretary of
War, showing that great progress lias been
made in looking after the proper burial of Union
officers and soldiers in the South.
THE CABINET ON RECONSTRUCTION-
The Tribune's special says tiie majority of the
Cabinet are quoted as favoring tiie reconstruc
tion report.
An order mustering out all volunteer staff of
ficers will be issued soon.
New York, April 30.— The Herald's special
says tiie Mianlowah will soon go. the fishing
grounds to protect, the rights of American fish
ermen, and the Augusta will also lie sent there.
Well informed persons think collision in Brit
ish North American waters quite probable.
FROM CHICAGO.
Chicago, April 38.—'This morning a fisher
man, while engaged opposite the foot of Divi
sion street, discovered the body of a man float
ing in tiie water a short distance from the shore.
Having secured it lie gave it into the (Jiarge of
officer Kr.itiss, of the police, who immediately
recognized it as being that of Frank Williard,
a native of Switzerland.
A destructive fire occurred at Fort Atkinson,
Wisconsin,?Wednesday night. The post office,
with its entire contents, was burned. The
builcling known as Central Hall,- with several
other buildings, was totally destroyed. No in
surance; Tiie origin of the tire is as yet un
known.
There is much talk and some excitement hero
on account of the prospect of a visitation from
•the cholera. Some of the clergy are urging the
appointment of a day of general fasting and
prayer, that tiie people may be spared from the
pestilence. Meanwhile the city is reeking with
tilth and filled with a'Chousand nameless odors,
and the work of purification goes on so slow
as to afford no prospect of relief within the
next twelve months. The people seem to ex
pect deliverance by some miracle, but will
doubtless bo disappointed.
The weather to-day was cool, with a strong
wind from the northwest, and the streets were
tilled with dust.
The villain who few days ago broke through
the windows in the store of Wiggins & Brad
ford and stole 81,346, lias been arrested aud

pany having donated a square to the' United
States for the. purpose of erecting a custom
house, the Treasury Department have notified
them that as soon as title deeds are deposited
in Washington, orders will lie issued for com
mencing the building.
Southern papers report great damage from
the late storm of rain and hail, which seems to
liave been general from Texas to Georgia. All
the rivers and bayous are out of their banks,
and the crops will have to be replanted. The
Arkansas river, near its mouth, has been out of
its banks for many weeks, and planters are
much disheartened, as the high water now com
ing down the Mississippi will complete the ruin
caused by tiie long continued flood of the Ar
kansas.
Shreveport papers report 140,000 bales of
cotton shipped from that port since the war.
A man named Vinson, in Mississippi, who
was supposed to be tiie leader of a gang of
horse thieves, was taken by the citizens, killed,
and secretly buried last week. His family were
told that lie had been compelled to leave the
country, but his sister-in-law found liis body
and had it taken to Starkville, and had an in
quest held on it. Trouble is anticipated.

direct from New Orleans, through in four days
and a half. When the Doctor entered on his
duties last fall, there was not a postmaster in
all Texas ; now loyal postmasters, who have

Oneida County Bank were {nit in circulation in i
Brooklyn this morning.
Sea Captains who Cannot’ Read oh
Write.—The Boston Commercial has the fol
lowing:
There are several masters of vessels, 'who
generally run to this port from Cape Breton
and the Provinces, who cannot read or write,
and they are among the “ lucky ones,” so called,
so far as money-making goes! There are doz
ens of them who are by no means expert or ac
curate in orthography. One captain was asked
the other day by his Boston agent how he could !
possibly navigate under such circumstances. !
“Oh,” said lie, “I know de way so well.” “But ,
there must lie times when togs anil currents em
barrass you ?” “ Aii! yes; de fogs do plague
tne sometimes, but (leu I shorten sail and keep 1
de lead going.” • . .
Some of our well-educated slffpmasters would
do well to imitate in tills respect. Another
captain usually brings coal to Boston from •
Sidney, Cape Breton. He has recently taken a
cargo to New Orleans, where he sold it at six
dollars and a half per ton, the whole amounting !
to fourteen hundred dollars. When the owner
learned the juice he was tearful that it would
till be consumed in expenses. But ttO. The
captain cannot read or write, yet he is lucky
in favorable winds, Ac., and a very shrew calcu
lator.
He met a fair wind at tiie Southwest Pass,
sailed up over the bar and to the city, discharged
the coal with his own crew, and sent a draft, of
one thousand dollars to the shipper. He then
went to Cuba. Finding freights rather dull at
Matanzas, he had just engaged a splendid
freight at six dollars and a half from Gibara to
Boston. This is an out of the way place and
bard tp get at. But the captain liad a fair
wind, arrived there in three days, and is now on
his way to Boston, where interested parties will
no doubt be glad to meet him, notwithstanding
his lack of classical knowledge!”
Disgraceful Scene in a Church.—A dis
graceful scene, worse if possible titan any of
the riots which led to Mr. King’s retirement
frum St. Hrorfro’s in the East, was witnessed nt,
Northmoor, near Bristol, on Easter Sunday.—
The incumbent of Northmoor is an extreme
“ritualist,” and great preparations wcre'made
in his church for the Easter Sunday Service.
On Saturday night, ltowever, the church was
entered, the decorations were destroyed, the
clergyman’s “ ribbons”—as the Bishop'of Lon
don would say—were out to pieess, and the
sacramental wine was drank. On Sunday morn
ing tiie church was crowded to suffocation bv a
mob of ruffians, some of whom coolly lighted
their pipes and began to smoke, while others
raised the most discordant noises. “Wc won’t t
go home till morning” beingamongthe sounds }
which rendered it impossible to proceed witli !

The Gospel According to St. Atien Sixtiex.
chapter i.
And it came to pass in the reign of Abraham
whose surname was Lincolu, in the eighty and
•sixth year otthc Independence of the States of
America, that a mighty rebellion arose in that
land.
And Abraham said unto Simon, from the Key
stone State : “Be thou my armor bearer.” "
And Simon did as lie was commanded, and
marshaled immense hosts of young and valiant
warriors from the East—even from the Ken
nebec; from across the great river Mississippi
and from beyond the Rocky Mountains ; from
every State called lie some ; and being of the
kind whose hair curled not a little, thev said
“Those Who have risen against us arc cowards
and when they behold our banners they will
surely run but they didn’t.
And it came to pass, these two mighty armies
went forth to fight on the plains of Manassas
And Simon’s men, though valiant and brave
were smote hip and thigh, even so much that
they hurried brilliantly back to lean on Abra
ham’s bosom.
And many were slain but more were wound
ed.
Then there was great commotion throughout
the land, and Abraham called aloud upoTi the
wise men and men of skill to save the sick and
give new strength unto the wounded.
And lo! there arose in the North one Drake,
cunning iri medicine, but of exceeding modesty!
And when Abraham and the people beheld
the wonderful cures which were wrought by
Drake, Abraham said, “ My children must not
suffer; give me thy drink to drink, and I will
give it a name.”
And so-Abraham drank, an'd said there was
nothing like it, not even in Sangamon county;
that it was bitter to the lips, but good for tile
stomach ; and because there were bitter times
in lighting tiie masters of the plantations, it
shall forevermore be called Plantation Bitters ;
and so it has been.
And the wonderful work which it has per
formed is witnessed at this d:.y in every town,
parish,, village and hamlet where the habits of
civili«:ttion'T>roduoe.dyspepsia, where war cre
ates accidents, and vie re climate or exposure
destroy strength and appetite.
And he said, “Let it be proclaimed through
out llie length and breadth of the laud, from
the valleys aud mountain tops, that all who suf
fer from fevers, dyspepsia, weakness, loss of
appetite, nervous headache and mental de
spondency, will find relief through the Planta

“ Jes’ so“ Exactly!”—Solon Shingle said; they were
there “every time.’ If he felt “owley” in the morniug,
he took Plantation Bitters; if he felt weary at night,
he took Plantation Bitters; if he lacked appetite, was
weak, languid or mentally oppressed, he took Plantation
Bitters; and they never failed to set him on his pins
square and firm.
Pew persons want any better authority; but as some
may, just read the following:

lieve the Plantation Bitters have saved my life.

hundred reams of such certificates, but no advertisement
is so effective as what pepple themselves say of a good
article. Our fortune and our reputation is at stake. The
original quality and high character of these goods will be

already obtained a sale in every town, village, parish and

OVER A MILLION DOLLARS SAVFD
Gentlemen: —“ I had a negro man worth $1,200 who
took cold from a bad hurt in the leg, and was useless for
over a year. I had used everything I could hear of with
out benefit, until I tried the Mexican Mustang Liniment.
It soon effected a permanent cure.”
J. L. DOWNING.
Montgomery, Ala., June 17, 1859.
“I take pleasure in recommending the Mexican Mus
•tang Linimeirt as a valuable arid indispensable article for
Sprains, Sores, Scratches or Galls on Horses. Our men
have used it for Burns, Bruises, Sores, Rheumatism, Ac.,
and all say it acts like magic.”

It is a most delightful Hair Dressing.
It eradicates scurf and dandruff.
It keeps the head cool and clean.
It makes the hair rich, soft and glossy.
It prevents hair turning gray and falling off.
♦ It restores hair upon prematurely bald heads.
This is just what Lyon's Kathairon will do. It is pretty

* * Wc are well acquainted with the gen

to any who have been so unfortunate as to lose either
an arm or a leg. He understands liis business perfect
ly, and wears an artificial leg himself, of his own make,
on which we have seen him dance; and we defy any
one not acquainted with the fact to detect it. We
have examined these artificial limbs, and have no hesi
tancy in pronouncing them the best we ever saw. Let
the maimed and crippled rejoice that tiie Good Sama
ritan is here in the person of Mr. Iloggson. * *
The following letter is one of tho many received by

Mr. G. B. IIoooson— Sir: I have tested the leg
made by you; find it satisfactory, and am pleased with
the same. I have no hesitation in recommending the
Artificial Limbs made by you to my comrades, who,
like myself, have been unfortunate in the late war.
