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. A. D. Bache, chief of the Coast Survey, is thought to be near his death. Tri-Weekly Constitutionalist. BY STOCKTON & 00 LATEST HEWS BY MAIL. 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 held to bail. His name is Napoleon Lamor tain. Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Annie Zearing, the young and beautiful wife of Judzell M. Zearing, of Princeton, 111., a lady well known, was found dead in her room at the Briggs House. The deceased had a mother living near Louis ville, Ky. , By the great eomosion and conflagration at Detroit, Thursdly night, twenty-eight lives are believed to have been lost. FROM CAIRO. Cairo, April 38.—The Cairo Property Com 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. A HEAVY ROBBERY. Wheeling, Va., April 30.—About 3 o’clock Sunday morning, six burglars entered tiie resi dence of the Cashier of the Harrison National Bank of Cadiz, Ohio, bucked and gagged the Cashier, and compelled his wife to deliver up the keys of the bnnk and safe. Proceeding thence to the bank they effected an entrance without much opposition and robbed the safe of three hundred thousand dollars in United States bonds and about fifty thousand in depo sits. After locking the watchman in the safe they made good their escape in a hand car, cut ting the telegraph wires in two. places. The robbers abandoned the hand car at. the station near Alexandria on the P. C. and C. 11. R. and took to the woods. The surrounding country has been aroused, and a large force is in pur- Tjventy thousand- dollars reward is offer ed for the arrest of the robbers.

EN ’ New Haven, Conn., April 30,-About one o clock this morning one of the buildings of the New Haven Clock Company was discovered to be on fire. The flames spread in spite of the ffiorts of the fire department, until all the ; • -v = building! of the cOmpariy, seven .in nnmher, I were entirely consumed.

I New Boundaries final report to-day. Dr. E. W. Stone, of Louisville, was elected missionary, with headquarters at Baltimore. In the pince of the ordinance changing the name this morning as a whole, it was amended | by inserting Episcopal. The 6tyle now is the Episcopal Methodist Church. The pie-nic passed pleasantly. About seven hundred persons were present. General Sheridan has ordered that ail vessels coming into tiiis port from New York be quar antined for ten days. FROM TEXAS AND LOUISIANA. Washington, April 29.— Dr. Daily, the spe cial agent for the Post Office Department for Louisiana and Texas, has arrived in this city 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 taken tiie oath, are to lie found all over the State, and service has been ordered on nearly all tiie leading mail routes. Dr. Daily’s reports are particularly encourag ing in relation to Louisiana. He thinks it the best reconstructed State in tiie South. The people are in good humor, aud the freedmen and all are at work at the reconstruction of plantations and wrecked fortunes. THE FENIANS. Philadelphia, April 30.—At a large meeting of the officers of the Fenian Circles, held in this city, a committee was appointed under the chairmanship of District Center Andrew Wynne to proceed to New York and ascertain from Colonel O’Mahoney the object of the recent movements and an explanation of tiie manner j in which the funds are being expended. The | object of tiie committee is to satisfy a feeling ot ' dissatisfaction among the Fenians in tiffs city, I which is daily growing stronger. CHOLERA. New York, April 30. — The cholera is first abating at the lower quarantine. No deaths have taken place, and no additional cases have been received on board the hospital-ship since Friday last, and all on board are reported to bo in a fairway for recovery. NEW COUNTERFEIT. New York, April 30.—Counterfeit fives on j 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 service.— English Paper. Rait.roai> Convention.—On the 4th of July next a general convention of all the railroad Presidents. Chief Engineers and. General Super intendents in the United States is to be field in Philadelphia, for an interchange of views.in re gard to railroad construction, management and operation. The call for the convention has been signed by railroad officers in all parts of the country, and the chief officers of railroads in the British Provinces have been invited to attend and participate in the deliberations-. Schfnck. —While ttie hill for the reorganiza tion of the army was lately under discussion in the House of Representatives, Sehenek, -of Ohio, who glories in the title of General, spoke of General Lee as a “ doubly-perjured wretch *" Schenck is the hero of “ Vienna Station,” and is the same man that was paralyzed by fear of Mosby when Milroy was about to be-destroypd at Vi inchester. lie is as valiant as a vixen now.

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 tion Bitters. They add tone to the stomach and brilliancy to the mind, ol' which I, O peo ple, am a living example.” And Drake did as he was commanded, and got him a place in the great city of New York ; and as many as came in unto him were healed and went on their way rejoicing. “Show your tongue,” said the doctor. Boy stares like an owl. “My good boy let me see your tongue,” re peated the doctor. ■' “Talk English, doctor,” said the mother, and then turning to her son, said— “Hopen thy gobler and push out thy ioli ker.” The mouth flew open and the doctor was ter ribly “taken iu.” AUGUSTA, (Ga.)
