Wasted Time.

When evil deeds come hack to sight,

The shadow of Wasted Time.
The ehanees of happiness cost away.
The opportunities never sought, '
The good resolves that everyday
Have died in tie impotence of thought,
The slow advance and the backward step
In the rugged path we have striven to

How they furrow the brow and pale the

When we talk with the Wasted Time.
What arc we now ? what had we been

Slirinking from nought that the world

To shake off this sloth from the heart and

tall Tor A Johnson National Soldiers’
Contention.
Washington, August 21.
'fill: JOHNSON HOLDiEKN’ CONVENTION
The following is the call (’or a Conven
tion oi soldiers, which will Isr held at
1 leveland, Ohio, f"v ptrjul.er 17, in.P idol
at Chicago, as heretofore announced :
To tin Soldiers amt. Sudors O'ho sere el til
lli< Ann ft rni/l'Nut // of Ilia United States
during the late rebellion :
In pursancc of a resolution of a meeting
of soldiers now lately in the Union army
held in this city last evening, we invite
those of you who approve the restoration
policy of the President, and the principles
iiimo'inced by the National <'"ir,vnti"U at
Philadelphia, to a -cmblc at t’leveland.
on the 17tli day of September, for consul
tation on the momentous issues now eonvul
ningjour country. We need not argue to you
tit length the importance of these issues,
nor your duty to take part in their settle
ment. After five years of fierce and des
tructive war, in which our armies were glo
riously triumphant, the Inion, for
which we" fought, is still pcac’ically
linrcHtorcd. Why is this? Wc strug
gled to maintain the rightful suprem
acy of the general government, to compter
all who in arms disputed its authority,
and to make every rebellious citizen yield
to its laws. We held, throughout the war,
that the Union is indissoluble, and its pow
ers as expounded by its courts supreme;
that no State can of its own motion with
draw, or at the will of its sister States be
excluded, and that the duty of each State
to maintain the Union, and its right to
take part in the government, are alike ab
solute. Every object of the war ever re
cognized by, or known to the army and
navy, has been thoroughly achieved. The
Southern people, decimated, impoverished
and subdued, have for more than a year
past abandoned the rebellion, and now
only ask that the I niou for which we
fought may he recognized as existing, and
that they may he dealt with as the Consti
tution and the laws prescribe. In their
anxiety to restore tin Inion and bring
harmony to its councils, they have gone
I eyelid a mere silent submission to its laws.
Through their delegates at the National
Union Convention, they solemnly re
nounced the doctrines of nullification and
secession from which the war arose ; repu
diated the rebel debt, and declared the na
tional debt a sacred obligation; proclaimed
that the faith of the nation was pledged to
the continuance of bounties and pensions to
loyal soldiers and sailors and their families;
declared slavery abolished, and the frecd
men entitled to equal protection of law in
person and property with their former
masters. Tin ir platform is not only one of
emphatic loyalty, but is, moreover, most
liberal in spirit on the great issues of the
war. The character of the men who rep
resented the Southern States in that Con
vention precludes us from believing this
enunciation of principles to he sincere.
They sent to it their foremost statesmen;
men who, like Hives, Graham, Orr, Par
sons, Sharkey, Houston, Brockenbrough,
Hunt, Maiming, and Stephens, wore known
throughout the laud before the war as men
of the highest character and influ
ence Among the five hundred delegates
irom the South there was not a voice or
vote dissenting from the resolution adopt
ed by the Convention. If the host of the
Southern people are ever to be believed,
we must accept these solemn declarations
as sincere. \\ edo not accept them as
conclusive evidence that a great majority
of the Southern people, sick of war and
anarchy, and longing for the restoration of
free government, are ready to hear true
allegiance to the Constitution and laws of
the Union. We are, therefore, unwilling
to see the Southern people held longer in
vassalaye. They are our countrymen, citi
zens ol the I nited State-, who have in
curred penalties, but who have rights.
Those who wilfully participated in the re
bellion, and are unpardonod, are subject
to the penalties inscribed for treason. But
though individuals may be tried, convicted
ami punished, communities cannot, not
es n the States and their people, without
a plain violation of tho Constitution, be
denied the richt of representation through
men personally qualified in the councils'of
the nation. The intention of Congress
seems to he to deprive them of representa
tion just a- long as suits the purposes of
the Radical party.
Many assert that it will concede the
right whenever the constitutional amend
ment shall have been adopted, and each
jin scribed State shall have ratified it. Cut
tt is quite certain that the amendment will
not be ratified by tluve-tourths of tho
States, and therefore that it will not be
adopted. Some, perhaps many, of the
Northern States will reject it, and we can
not expect its legal ratification by any of
the lately insurrectionary States. If there
w, re no .other reason why the Southern
States will reject it, it is enough that it
proposes to disfranchise yearly .all the men
in the South who have influence over the
Dipsos ot iho people. If none wore to lie
disfranchised uxoopt officers of the rebel
army, wo y-till could not expect the South
to accept it : lor a large majority oi‘ men
in the lately insurrectionary States, through
compulsion or choice, served in the rebel
army, and their votes alone would over
whelmingly defeat it. Would I'nion
soldiers, to recover political privileges, dis
franchise their leaders whom they love and
revere lor their heroic virtues ? I low. then,
can we expect Southern soldiers to disfran
chise and degrade their old commanders.
As there is no probability that the amend
ment will he ratified by three-fourtlts of the
States, the plan oldest oration whichConyress
appears to have determined on is at host
impracticable. That proposed by the l’re
sident and approved by tile National Union
Convention is feasible and, we believe,
safe. We have no fear that the South can
ever overthrow the Federal Government,
or even disturb its career of power and
glory. They will be the last of the States
to rebel, and if they shall again rise in in
surrection the loyal people can ami will
subdue, and if need be, destroy them. The
government has asserted its power for self
preservation. and the devastation and mis
ery of the South proclaim to this generation
at least, tho crime and the terrible penalties
ot treason. Beholding their woes and con
trasting their weakness and our strength,
wv could afford to show the confidence and !
courage of magnanimity. We might we ii
let our van,mi-bed opponents arise and.
like dames ritzjanies at Coilantogle Ford.
staunch their wounds and forgive their
treason. But we are not asked to be mag
nanimous, but only consistent and just.
I his we cannot refuse to be without a vio
lation of the ( .institution of our country
and a risk ot it- utter overthrow. We
seek and will have 110 association in politi
cal action with men. North or South, who
are not avowedly andju our opinion sin
cerely faithful to the constitutional p,i„-
en.les for which we fought, lkt if men
who have taught or practiced treason now
opetiely renounce their errors and maintain
with us the true principles of our govern
ment. we shall not reject their corporation
when the restoration Os the Union and the
j>rosor\ ation oi our form ot* government are
in issue.
lloweyet- much wo regret to sever cher
ished political as- viates. and to co-operate
with former enemies, we must pre.er to
act with those who have been wrong and
are now right rather than with those who
have been right and are now wrong. Be
lieving that our government is again in
peril, we appeal to you who have sought
to save it. and who hold it dearer and
more sacred than till party tics, to come to
its rescue. Let the soldiers and sailors,
agreeing with its in the sentiment, but
who cannot in person attend, send dele
gates through the action of their societies,
or of local conventions, ljOt us meet m force
at Cleveland, on the 17th of September,
the anniversary of the day when the Con
stitution was proclaimed by our fore
fathers, and let us aid in restoring the
Union it created, and the liberties it was
ordained to secure.

Resolutions of a Pennsylvania tonvea*
lion.
Tlie following resolutions, adopted at the
great Union meeting, which took place at
Heading, show, the animus of the Radicals
Oi Pennsylvania :
Itmth'xL That we give j .raise and thank -
to Almighty God in that he has vouchsafed
unto us a full and complete victory over
| those who sought during four long years of
j bloody war to destroy this last altar of the
| rights of man upon which to base free in
j stitutions ; that th "black and loathsome
■ stain of slavery, which classed us among
the and heathen nations of the earth,
I has at last been blotted out. and in all our
' land no man can say of his fellow-men.
“ These are mine.
Re-lot red. That we owe a debt of lasting ;
gratitude to the Union soldiers and sailors
for their valor and prowess in battling
down the slaveholders wicked and bloody i
rebellion ; and we pledge to the widows
and orphan- of those who fell our protec- j
tion. support and patronage, when within i
our power to give them. . |
Rewind, That iri the joint resolution
which was passed by the Congress of the j
United States by a two-thirds vote, pro- :
posing an amendment to the constitution ;
of the United States, wc recognize the only j
-ure palladium of the principles for which :
we sacrificed four hundred thousand .
the best blood of our country, actuated by ,
the j. al( ,e spirit which led our forefather- .
to proclaim the Declaration , of Independ- !
cnee in 1776; that we heartily endorse the j
j firs’ Section of the amendment, declaring ■
(fiat all person■ born within the Uniteu
States shall be citizens thereof, us a means
of future protection as well as present
f, (utility: that wc are in favor of said see
! tion, because it provides for the equaliza
tions of representation in f engross ttnd in
; the Electoral College, and do declare our
‘ hostility, now and forever, against tho ad
mission of tho States lately in rebellion
j upon a Iranis givng to the South sixty per
| cent, more power in Congress and in the
! Electoral College than is possessed by an
j equal number oi whites at the North,
’ while tin; third section, excluding all per
jured Rebels from holding office, meets our
! hearty arid unqualified approval.
I Rewind, That the true interest and
j purpose of the policy laid down by An
' drew Johnson, the made Pre.-idont - by. J.
! Wilke* Booth! is to resurrect from oblivion
j arid disgrace th<- Democratic party, which
1 )Ur its treasonable course during the war,
; w; - consigned to the tomb of everlasting
; infamy and shame; and we believe that
the success of said policy would turn back
j t ii<- wheels of progress a generation in our
1 country’s march to greatness and glory.
Rewind, That in Major General J. W.
Hoary, the standard bearer of the llcpub-
I 1 lean party of Pennsylvania, we have com
iiincd the true principles oi the soldier and
i statesman ; the hero of many battles, and
! the defender of civil liberty, whenever and
' wherever vve have been called to govern.
i Re. nlred, That Andrew G. Curtin, the
good and loyal Governor of Pennsylvania,,
has well earned the noble title oi the “ sol
j ilicr-s friend,” and in retiring from the gu
; hernutorial chair lie takes with him the cn
i tire confidence and esteem of every true pa-
triot in the State.
Rewind. That HcnryJ. Raymond, who
was made chairman of the National Repub
lican Executive Committee of 1864, which
nominated Abraham Lincoln for President,
by his having followed the lead of the infa
mous Andrew Johnson, and with him
turned traitor to the pi inciples of his par
ty and the great interests of freedom and
humanity, has become odious and unwor
thy, and this convention requests that. Con
gress assemble, and without permitting
him to resign, forthwith expel him from
the chair and from the country.
Alexander 11. Stephens at Philadelphia--
What He Had to say ami How He look
ed.
| Correspondent of the New'York World, j
Pill l,Al>elpiiia, August 16. —lion. Al
exander 11. Stephens, of Georgia, has
spent the dal’ very quietly at the House of
his friend, B. •). Arundel, 857 North
Broad street. A number of the delegates
called upon him during the day and ex
pressed their regret at his inability to take
part in the proceedings of the Convention.
By the courtesy of Mr. Arundell, I had
the pleasure to-day of an extended conver
sation with Mr. Stephens. The absence
officially of the gentleman from the Conven
tion during most of its sessions, was owing
partly to the fact of a severe diarrudial
indisposition last night, and also because
he considered that peculiar circumstances
of an antecedent nature madp his non-par
ticipation as an active delegate more ad
visible than otherwise, as he was wholly
averse to effecting any want of harmony,
or of disturbing either the sentiments of
any of the members or the history of the
Convention by any results which his pres
ence or action might produce or he tortur
ed into, by designing enemies of the fra
ternity evoked by the occasion. Besides
he felt disinclined and physically unable to
make any speech, which, ho had reason
to believe, would bo expected of him.
He stated it was not improvable that lie
might probably express his views before
leaving tho city, should his health permit
him to answer the numerous solicitations
to that effect.
Os the actions and permanent influence
of tho convention, Mr. Stephens was san
guine of the most auspicious results. For
the first time since the war the South had
been heard. 1 ler loyal submission, her full
acqniesenco, her utter desolation, must
move the nation to accord to her the confi
dence of co-operation in the Government.
The anomaly of supporting the burden of
government and not sharing its privileges
and opportunities could not long continue.
He relied upon the sober second thought
and justice of the North. This convention
was the beginning of the end of State ino
qualityanu vassalage. His interview with
Mr. Johnson yesterday confirmed him in
his views ofhis catholic statesmanship, and
tho success of the restoration policy is as
sured.
Mr. Stephens wore a careworn, ema
ciated look. but his eye and voice have lost
none of the energy of other days, and his
mind developes the intense activity that
has ever marked the man. He says his
general health, never robust, has been, with
the exception of the present attack, uni
formly as good as he has known for years.
He declares the South is unanimous for
Union, and for all the new condition of
things which the late war normally necessi
tated ; and all the responssbility rests with
the North, simply to act up the spirit in
which the war was declared to be waged,
and on which the submission of the Con
federacy was received. Now that the peo
ple had come together, misunderstanding
and estrangement could not much longer
be maintained.
Alarmed. —The New York Tribune is
evidently alarmed at the effect of the Phil
adelphia Convyntion. Under the slogan
of ‘'Gome, Brothers, Arouse!" he says :
“It is most unfortunate that our State
Convention was not called to meet this
week, so as to respond with prompt and
stern defiance to the Copperhead demon
stration at Philadelphia. Wc ought, also,
to have been able to send a deputation to
confer and fraternize with the loyal South
erner'' Convention at Philadelphia. We
ought to have had not only our State Tick
et, but every Congressman, in the field by
the Ist of September. The Confederate
guerrillas will be riding around our squares
as early as possible, and we ought to be
thoroughly prepared for them forthwith.
We shall have a desperate struggle in
our State this Fall. The coalition against
j us is strong in crafty political managers,
strong in official "spoils,” and will be strong
1 also in money. We can and must beat
i hem, but only by a tremendous effort.
We mils; pour the light into every school
district; we must organize and canvass
each township; wo must have speakers by
scores, and meetings in hundreds, from end
to end of the State ; we must relight the
watch-fires of Patriotism on every hill-top,
and cause each heart to glow with the fires
of Loyalty and Liberty.
M e ought to have a thorough organiza
tion of the E-pub!ican-Unionists in everv
election district ol the State; nay, we must
have it. Me ought to be ready to open !
the canvass in every county, at the latest, i
on the return of our delegates from Syra- ■
euse ; we should have a meeting speedily !
called to organize each township at furthest 1
on Saturday, Sept. sth. We can beat the
Confederates ; butj not by lying down and
going to sleep. W e must have a canvass
like that of IS6O, or that of 1564. We
must take hold—not a few of us, but the
great mass—with a fixed resolve to deserve
success and achieve it. We must reach
the heart of the Beople, arouse their en
thusiasm, and -cause them to rush to the
polls like an avalanche. Men and breth
ren ! let us work 1! ”
Assistant Assessors.—The following
special order concerning Assistant Asses
sors has been issued :
Treasury Department, 1
Office of Inlernal lx even ce. -
Washington. Aug. 20, 1 SO6. )
It has been represented to this office
that in some instances Assistant Assessors
have used their official positions to -e-ure
their nomination to local offices, and it i
urged that their relation the tax-paver
is such that they may use ft to their per
sonal advantage in this respect if so dis
posed. It is also believed that the posi
tion of. a candidate for office before the
people is unfavorable to strict impartiality
which is , essential to the dis
charge of the duties of an Assistant Asses
sor. The Secretary of the Treasury has.
therefore, directed that notice bo issued
that the acceptance of a nomination for au
elective office by any Assistant Assessor
will be taken as evidence that he no longer
desire- to retain his position. Assessors
are instructed,to promptly report the name
of any assistant who may accept, or who is
known to be seeking a nomination for any
such office, in order that a successor may
be forthwith appointed.

There’s Work Enough To Uo.
The blackbird early leaves kis nest
To meet the smiling mom.
And gather fragments for its nest
I'-fom upland, wood and lawn ;
The busy bee that wings its way
'Mid sweets of varied hue.
At ev’rv flower would seem to say—
“ There’s work enough to do.’’
The cowslip and tho spreading vine,
The daisy in the grass,
The snow-drop and the eglantine,
Preach s-noons as we pass.
The ant, within its cavern deep,
Would bid us labor too,
And writes upon its tiny heap—
“ There’s work enough to do.”
To have a heart for those who weep,
The so.tish drunkard win ;
To rescue all the children, deep
In ignorance and sin;
To help the poor, the hungary feed,
To give him coat and shoe,
To see that all 1-411 write and read,
“Is work enough to do.’’
The time is short—the world is wide,
And much has to lie done;
Tiie wondrous earth, and all its price.
Will vanish with the sun!
The moments fly on lightning wings,
And life's uncertain too;
We've none to waste on foolish tilings,
“There’s work enough to do.’’
The planets, at their maker’s will,
Move onward in their cars,
l-'i>r Nature's wheel is never still,
Progressive as the stars'
Thelcnve.s that flutter in the air,
And summer's breezes woo,
One solemn truth to man declare—
“ There’s work enomrh to do.”
Who then can sleep when all around
Is active, fresh and free?
Shall Man—creation’s lord—be found
less busy than the bee?
Our courts and alleys are the field,
If men would search them through,
That best the sweets of labor yield,
And “work enough to do.”
Mm titer n Opinion of the Philadelphia
Convention.
‘J. F.” of the Mobile Advertiser —which
we suppose to be John Forsyth, itseminent
editor—writing from Philadelphia, says :
I have telegraphed you the mainfeaturcs
of the great People’s Convention, and in
writing to you, am embarrassed by the
thought that 1 am to compete with the
wires and the one hundred reporters of the
press who are here to “gobble up” every
incident of the mighty gathering and send
it over tho whole land by lightning. Wliat
your readers will first desire to be assured
of is, that the Convention is a complete
success. Not a ripple has disturbed its
proceedings, within the body itself, or out
side. The grand objects which brought
tot’cther the representatives of every State
and Territory, have been kept steadily in
view, and harmony; good feelings, and the
spirit of conciliation have been illustrated
in the most marked manner. Old North
ern Democrats, who have gone faitliluily
through the fires of trial, have grasped
Southern hands and welcomed them back
with tears in their eyes. Pott have seen how
Massachusetts and South Carolina, the an
tipodes of sectional antipathy for thirty
years, have fraternized. Ibis was not done
for a dramatic effect, hut was a spontaneous
suggestion most cordially acted upon by both
sides. A distinguished Connecticut dele
gate came into the room of our delegation,
i.nd, when introduced, observed, " Here is
a hand unstained by Southern blood.”
Rut the good feeling is not confined to the
faithful and unfaltering Democrats. It
extends to the new elements in the party
of restoration—the Conservative Republi
cans, who have separated from their late
Radical associates, entering fully into the
spirit of the hour. You will find the ad
dress, prepared by Mr. Raymond, an ad
mirable document, in comprehensiveness
of matter, in its compact logic and its elo -
quent expression. It is a surprisingly mod
el ate, sound and constitutional document
to come from such a source. The truth is,
that now that the Union is in peril, men
are driven to first principles, and tho only
true and saving principles of the South as
tho basis of restoration. Several of the
striking passages of tho address were . re
ceived with deafening shouts, especially
front Southern seats, and on motion, were
re-read, to be as Fully applauded. The
immense wigwam was crowded with spec
tators, who entered with all the zest of the
body into the spirit of the occasion.
So far, all that has been expected of
this extraordinary assemblage has been
realized. I learn that it is to be the tact
and prescience of President Johnson that
the country owes the conception of the
idea of a National Convention. He struck
the rock, and living waters of constitu
tional restoration have gushed forth. He
will be pleased with his work. His terse
ami feeling telegram to the body has
already expressed it. The adjournment
took place at twelve to-day, and members
are preparing to scatter to tho'r homes,
and to the fields of political struggle, to
make good the pledges here made and the
principles here declared. It is a good
feature that Southern gentlemen arc in
vited to remain in the North, and take the
stump in States where the fall elections
are pending. I may do a little of this
work myself before I return home.
J. F.
The Columbia Patriot says :
Every citizen who values the peace and
future well-being of his country, will re
joice at the harmony, apparent kind feeling,
the deliberate, calm and well timed forbear
ance and unanimity, which characterized
the assemblage of so many men, lately an
tagonistic. In the Declaration of Rights,
embracing as it does, certain fundamental
principles, set forth in, and guaranteed by,
the constitution of our fathers; (principles
for which the South has ever been the ad
vocate, the defender and the sufferer,) we
may accept it as tho basis, on which the
ballot box will and must decide the issue.
We may not accord our acquiescence in all
of the declaration as given to us ; but we
thus far have obtained a recognition by tho
conservative men of the North, of out
rights as States under the Constitution of
the country, and an earnest pledge by that
declaration, that an overthrow of the Radi
cal faction, is as much determined on by
them, as it is desired by us.
From the Petersburg Express.
This great movement originated with the
moderate wing of the Republican party at
the North. It is in that region that the
great battle is to he fought between the
Destructives and the Conservatives. It
was proper, therefore, that the platform
should be constructed to meet the views of
e oderate men of the Republican party,
who sustain President .Johnson’s policy of
reconstruction, at the same time that it
should be made as little offensive as possi
ble to the South. Unless the opportunity
was to be wholly wasted, and the harmony
of the Convention marred by heated dis
cus; ion, we cannot perceive how any better
course could have been devised, than to
concede to the North the right to state the
principles on which they wished to enter
upon the, coming campaign, and for the
Southern delegates to rafraiu from expres
sions of dissent. The resolutions are as
moderate as any Northern man could be
expected to sanction; and on their adoption
it is to be presumed they were permitted
to be carried by default, so far as Southern
members were concerned.
Under this a-poet of the matter, we can
readily acquit Southern delegates from all
censure, and wc doubt not they will bo ful
ly able to justify their action to their con
stituents. They are gentlemen of high
character, and not to be suspected for a
moment of the weakness or treachery of
compromising the honor of the South, even
with the surety of having her representa
tives a few months, or a few years earlier
to their seats in Congress,
[From the Norfolk Hay Book.]
The great Folfcmote has done its work
and adjourned. In points of detail we
could raise objections here and there to
what has been said or done, and to the
manner of saying or doing it; but looking
at results we behold the organization of a
Conservative party with which we can all
co-operate, and congratulate the country
on the success of the Convention. Its pro
ceedings were harmonious beyond expecta- j
tion. and the Declaration of Principles j
which it lias given to the country are con- j
elusive of the earnestness of the opposition
which the radicals are hereafter to encoun
ter. The war between central despotism |
and local liberty has begun, and the ene
mies of republican institution* at last find
themselves confronted by an organized re
sistance.
From the Lyi:ehb v rg Virginian.
The Convention has done its work well
and adjourned. There were many friei ids
of the Convention who, while they wished
it well, were honestly doubtful of its suc
cess. and whose minds were filled with dark
forebodings as to the result. There were
others who confidently looked to rupture
and failure. They believed that the in
congruous elements would not harmonize
and come together iu fraternity on a com
mon platform. All such have been pleas
antly disappointed. The result lias aston
ished even the most sanguine. Such har
mony. such fraternal concord, such one
ness of feeling, of desire and of purpose
were never before witnessed in any assem
blage representing all sections of the coun
try. Everything that could give offence to
any. however sensitive, was studiously
avoided —there was no crimination or re
crimination : no allusions to the bitter
past; nothing calculated to excite uu
pleasant recollections or feelings. The
good of the country, the restoration of
union, harmony and equal rights under the
Constitution seemed alone jto constitute the
i ibjeets and aspiration of the representa
tives ofbotli sections.
Economical. —It is a subject of general
comment and wonder that the Commission
sent to hold conference and negotiate with
the Indian tribes west of the Arkansas,
only spent slo,ooo. out of the $54,000 set
apart for the purpose. The Commission
was absent two months, and had inter
views with the representatives of “5,000
Indians, to whom many presents were
made,

Washington, Aug. 17. I860.)
By section 57 of the act of July 13,1 <66.
it is provided, that after the first day of
.September, 1866, any fermented liquor
owned or possessed by any person'after its
sale or removal from the brewery or ware
house. or. other place where it was made,
upon which the required tax shall have
not been paid, shall be liable to forfeiture.
Furthermore, the want of the proper
stamp upon the vessel containing such
liquor, after such removal or sale, is to be
notice to all persons, and prima facie
evidence that the required tax has not been
paid.
These provisions make it necessary that
the stamps should be well secured to the
vessels, and not easily removed therefrom
except by intentional effort to that pur
pose. The following method of affixing Is
therefore prescribed;
“A hole two and three-quarter inches in
diameter, and one-eighth inch deep, should
be countersunk in the head of the barrel,
in such position as will bring the spigot at
the lower edge of the stamp where the per
forations are made. The stamp is to be
pasted in this countersunk hole, with the
perforated portion over the spigot hole,
with strong paste ;* and if the barrels are
to he exposed to the action of the weather,
or to he stored in damp places for conside
rable periods, the stamp should also he se
cured by lour tacks to prevent its peeling
i off.
In renewing the stamp upon a barrel used
the second time, the tacks should be with
drawn, and the stamp carefully scraped oft
to prevent the hole front being filled with
the scrape of former stamps.
The stamps, at the time of being affixed,
are to he cancelled by writing or imprint
ing thereon the name of the person, firm
or corporation by whom such liquor .may
have been made, or the initial letters of
such name, and the date of such cancella
tion. Tiiomas Harland,
Acting Commissioner.
-The best paste is made by. dissolving
one and a half pounds wheat flour and one
ounce of alum in a gallon of cold water,
and then boiling the mixture until it is of
the proper thickness. Sour floor is better
than sweet for tho purpose.

Kindly give me counsel now ;

Crop Intelligence.
The Carolina Sparta says : “Portions
of our District have been blessed with good
rains within the last week, but these have
not been general. Corn on the uplands is
a failure complete.”
The Yorkvilie Emptier sayS: “Re
freshing showers of rain have fallen upon
portions of this District in the last few
days. Though too late to restore tho
withered crops, they have benefited to
some extent the late corn and cotton.
The Montgomery Advertiser says;
The depredations of the boll and army
worm and other backsets to tho cotton
crop have sensibly diminished activity in
trade. The reports from all the cotton
growing regions of Alabama are to the
same effect—that the crop will be greatly
smaller than was expected. The sickness
of freedmen and their prevention from field
labor is another of the many difficulties to
contend with. Many of tho wisest busi
ness men do not estimate the entire growth
of cotton this reason at more than 1,200,-
000 bales.
There has been a serious want of rain,
which has been of great injury to the corn.
In some counties in Middle and North Al
abama this crop is reported as almost a
failure. All ordinary amount will be made
in the region contiguous to Montgomery.
Later intelligence, including reports from
the south and southeastern portion of the
county, leaves no doubt on our mind that
the cotton crop of Perry will fall 35 per
cent, short of the promise of last month.
The boll-worm and caterpillar have almost
ruined some of the finest plantations in the
prairie, and a well-grounded apprehension
exists that not a farm in tho county will
escape their ravages. They arc destroying
everything in Greene, Sumter, Dallas and
Marengo, and indeed all the counties from
which we have any intelligence. —Alabama

Enameled Females. —An astonished
and indignant Newport correspondent thus
vents his wrath on the promonitions of the
n jw fashion of enamelling:
“ Where arc these fantastic tricks, be
fore high heaven, going to end V Surely
it was enough that we allowed our
“ darlings” to squeeze themselves into
every shape, but that of “the human form
divine,” by villainous corsets, that robbed
them 06 their case and constitution. We
said nothing or little about the hideous
waterfall atid the barbarous rats and mice;
we merely exclaimed against the foolishness
of powders, pomatums and tilting skirts;
but when it comes to this, that ladies must
veneer themselves, like a drawing-room
table, in order to please, their vanity and
command admiration, it is time that we
should spur ourselves up to the expression
of a loud and honest indignation. This
fashion, I believe, is quite the rage in
Paris. The Misses B. have been there,
and had themselves “done.” More’s the
pity. They must deprive themselves of a
great deal of enjoyment. They cannot
laugh heartily. A sweet smile is all they
dare attempt. A good, joyous ha, lia, ha
would be sure to crack them and smash
them all to bits. Then, the. consequences
are a long, tedious journey to Paris, or a
second coat. They cannot take more than
three varnishes, tho fourth one being fatal.
Our beauties, shining and glistening like a
porcelain bowl, drive up and down the
avenue every afternoon. Thank goodness,
the young ladies here do not, as yet, seem
enamored of the custom. The enameled
females are evidently just now sent to
Coventry.”
Financial.—The Washington Star
says:
In consequence of the amendments made
j to the tax laws _by Congress, and which
; were unnecessarily deferred until the last
days of the session, the sixty millions due
] to the Government from the people on ac
j count of the income tax, could not this
year be collected as heretofore in July,
when business is dull, and the drain from
circulation but little felt: but was neeessa
rily'deferred until Septcnilier, when the ac
tive fall trade usually sets in. The anxiety
felt in commercial circles as to the embar
rassment likely to result from this cause,
lias been relieved by the official announce
ment of Secretary McCulloch that after the
—Oth iust. all temporary deposits in the
Treasury except the clearing house certifi
cates will cease to bear interest. The ef
fect of this decision will be that the depos
its. which amount to sixty-nine millions,
will be withdrawn before the close of the
month. The ten millions of interest due
on the first series of Seven-thirties is now
being disbursed, which with the $70,000,-
000 falling duo on the 27 th inst.. will make
$80,000,000 payable otit of the Treasury,
to offset the $60,000,000 of income tax,
payable into the Treasury, thus adding
$20,000,000 to our circulation for business
purposes.

My Father.
BY HENRY R. JACKSON, OP GEORGIA.
As die the embers on the hearth,
And o’er the floor the shadows fall,
And creeps the chirping cricket forth,
And ticks the death-watch on the wall,
I see a form in yonder chair
That grows beneath the waning light—
There are the wan sat! features—there
The pallid brow and locks of white.
Mv lather! when they laid thee down,
And iieaped the clay upon thy breast,
And left thee sleeping al! alone'
Upon the narrow couch of rest,
I know not why I could not weep—
The soothing' drops refused to roll,
And oh! that grief is wild and deep
Which settles tearless on the souk
But when I saw thy vacant chair,
Thy idle hat upon tiie wall,
Thv books—the penciled passage where
Thine eye had rested last of all;
The tree beneath whose friendly shade
Thy trembling feet had wandered forth,
The very prints those feet had made
When last they- feebly trod the earth.
And thought w hile countless ages fled
The vacant seat would vacant stand;
Unworn thy hat—thy book unread,
Effaced'thy footsteps from the sand,
And widowed in this cheerless world
The heart that gave its life to thee—
Torn like the vine whose tendrils curled
More closely round the falling tree.
Then, father! for her sake and thee,
Gushed madly forth the scalding tears;
And oft, and long, and bitterly
Those tears have gushed in later years;
For a- thc.world grows cold around,
And things take on their real hue,
’Tis sad to learn that love is found
Alone, above the stars with you 1
IMMENSE GATHERING IV MEMPHIS.
Ratification of the Action of the Phila
delphia Convention.
The Memphis Avalanche, of the 26th.
contains an account nearly four columns in
length, of a grand mass meeting in Mem
phis to ratify the action of the Philadel
phia Convention. It was the largest gath
ering seen in that city for many years.
Gen. N. B. Forrest was called to the chair,
and on taking his seat, spoke as follows:
Mr. President and Gentlemen: I !
thank you for the honor conferred upon j
me to-night, in selecting me as your pre- j
siding officer. You will allow me to say j
that, I am far mere familiar with the stern
duties of a soldier, than I am with the art
of public speaking. It is known to most of 1
you, that my lite has been one of action j
rather than 01 words. Nor lias it been my
habit to take any’ leading part in the di
rection of political and public affairs. But
the occasion of this evening is one of no
ordinary importance. Youhave assembled
to express your approbation or disappro
bation of the principles of public policy and
constitutional government declared in the
resolutions and address sent forth to the
American people, by the late Philadelphia
Convention. If the principles therein
enunciated shall be sustained by the Amer
ican people, and particularly by a majority
of the freedmen of the Northern States,
then the States and the people of the South
will he speedily restored to civil and con
stitutional liberty. If I know myself, this
is the anxious desire of my heart. This is
the consideration that brought me here to
night, and without stopping to criticise or
object to collateral matters and details, uot
resting on any T great public principle, as a
ichole, I will stand by the resolutions of
that body.
T have carefully read and considered the
address and the principles bf public policy
and constitutional law therein contained,
and without regard to the language in
which they stand expressed, they meet my'
full, unreserved and cordial approval.
When I pledged my word and my honor
to the lost cause of the late Confederacy, I
suppose that no one who knew me ever
doubted the honesty and good faith with
which they would be redeemed; and when
I now aec ;pt the results of the war as irre
vocable, as I have accepted them, and
pledge my word and my faith to the sup
port of the great principles declared to the
world by the Philadelphia Convention, as I
now do, that vow and that faith shall be
equally sacred and unchangable.
There is one tiling I will say in regard
to the soldiers of the North aud South, the
men who have met each other in the stern
shock of battle, and a conflict of arms that
tried their courage and their souls: if
these grave matters were referred to them,
these States could be instantly restored to
their former relations ; their people to the
right ol representation in Congress, and
all sections of the Union to quietude and
friendship.
And as to the last resolution proposed by
the committee, endorsing the patriotic ef
fort of the President of tho United States
to secure to the Southern States equality
of rights in the Union, it meets my cordial
approbation. I have reason to believe
that I have been misrepresented to the
Chief Magistrate, and slandered by calum
niators, publicly and privately, in regard
to my behavior as one of the commanders
of a portion of the army of the late Con
federate States ; but while I shall rest my
vindication against these calumnies upon
the testimony of the thousands of brave
men who followed me in that bloody strug
gle, whatever the President may think of
me, it is a duty I owe to my own sense of
justice and patriotism to endorse his policy
for the immediate restoration of the States;
toltand by him in his arduous endeavors
for the preservation of the constitutional
rights of the Southern States and people,
and express to the world my admiration of
his generosity and the dignity of his conduct.
And as to my future policy, I refer you to
my past history since the surrender ot my
command at Gainesville, Ala., on the 9th
j day of May, 1805, an 1 to my address to
j my soldiers on that occasion.
Speeches were made by lion. G us. A.
Henry, Dr. Langdon, C. Haynes, W. T.
Avery find Gen. Stoneman who is in com
mand of the district of Memphis. The
following is the speech of General Stone
man :
Friends and Fellow Countrymen: You
have before you, not a partizan or politician,
but a simple citizen of the Government of
the United States, knowing no North, no
South, no East, no West. The war in
which the people of this greatest of all
great countries lias been engaged during
the past eventful years is ended, the issues
upon which that war was based have been
settled. If there is anything to forgive,
let it be forgiven ; if there is anything to
be forgot, let it be forgotten. Lot us all
recollect that we have but one country and
one flag.
The object for which you are all assem
bled together nerc to-night, is, as I un
derstand it, reconstruction and reunion;
but let us all remember that reconstruc
tion must be based upon reconciliation.
You may force a separated man and wife
to live in the same house, lodge in the same
room, but they will never be reunited as
man and wife until they have first become
reconciled.
I say the war is ended. As we were
enemies in war, let us be again friends,
and in this sentiment I know that no one
will join me more heartily than the gal
lant and distinguished President of this
assembly.
The bravery that was displayed during
the past by each one engaged in the war,
let it be the pride and common property
ol all. We soldiers who did the fighting
are reconciled and want peace and harmo
ny. and we call upon you editors and ora
tors of the land to nid us with your pens
and tongues. Preachers of the gospel
whose solemn obligation it is to preach
peace and good will, we ask your prayers
and invocations, and from you politicians
we demand that you shall cease y-our
wrangling and allow the good work to go
on until your object is attained.
And you, fair maiden sand-noble matrons
who, during the fighting, cheered us with
your snules and frightened us with your
frowns, lend us the potency of your pow
er in the accomplishment of a w irk so
laudable and so noble.
As I am not an applicant for your suf
frages, nor ever expect to be, nor ever
cast a vote for President in my life, you
will not expect me to define, mv position •
but this much I will say : I have been a
member ot a club for near a quarter of a
century, and which was organized three
quarters of a century ago. Bv the Con
stitution of that club, its President is
elected every four years. Its first Presi
dent was George Washington ; its present
1 resident is Andrew Johnson, whom the
people call "our Andy-.”
Brie, speeches were also made bv Col.
Bob. Croc-kett, and Col. Cameron.
The following are the resolutions adopted
at the meeting.
Resolved, I ,mi XQ most heartily ap
; ProyeofthfiPtaftical doctrines enunciated
a the late National Union Convention,
" Inch assembled in the city of Philadel
i l )lna 011 t! Y Mth day of August. In*; and
most cjieerlully agree to accept its action,
promising our utmost efforts to secure the
triumph of its prin, -ii lies through a restor
ed Union.
Itesrtlved. That only in the success of
these principles do foe discern either lor
thoJNorth or the South security for the
present, or hope for the future. Humanly
considered, unless success is attained, in
at least their general scope and intent,
American liberty- " ill die and make “no
sign.”
Resolved, That we especially and heartily
respond to that sentiment enunciatedjn
the address and resolutions of the 1 hila
deiphia Convention, embodied in these
"** ‘Resentment of injustice is always and
everywhere essential to freedom .amltlie
spirit which prompts the »id peo
pie lately in insurrection, but insurgent
now no longer, to protest against the nil
position of unjust and degrading condi
tions. makes them all the more worthy to
share in the government of a tree com
monwealth, and gives still firmer assurance
of the future power and freedom ol the
Rei üblic. ”
Language which we were told was re
ceived with earnest applause by the masses
assembled at the time, and which we are
assured will meet with a like response from
the conservative good men throughout the
nation.
Sic.so;ccd, That we cordially indorse the
policy of Andrew Johnson, and we recog
nize in him the man who, of all others is
now, under God, ordained to lead *ids
people out of the present trouble and
danger: and adopt as our own his noble
and patriotic sentiments announced bv
telegraph to the country :
The finger of Providence is unerring.
and wdl guide you safely through.
The People must be trusted, and the
Country icillbc restored.

Radicalism, and as bringing hope and
healing, and assured promise of Constitu
tional restoration.

Thou art crumbling to the dust, old pile !
Thou art hastening to thy fall;

Who knelt before thy shrine,

, In days of “Auld Lang Syne.’’
! And sadly sighs the wandering wind,
Where oft, in years gone by,
Prayer rose front many hearts to Him,
The Highest of the High.
The tramp of many a busy foot,
That sought thy aisles is o'er.
And many a weary heart around
Is still lor evermore.
How doth ambition's hope take wings!
How droops the spirit now?
We hear the distant city's din;
The dead are mute below;
The sun that shone upon their paths
Now gilds their lonely graves,
The zephyrs whiclionce fanned their brows
The grass above them waves.
Oh ! could we call the many back,
Who’ve gathered here in vain—
Who ve careless roved, whore wo do now,
Who'll never meet again!

There is an old tale, of which, though
idle in itself, the use may be good. A cer

when he heard the saint’s bell, would say
to liis wife, “Go thou to church, and pray
for thee and me.” One night he dreamed
that both lie and his wife were dead, and
that they knocked together at Heaven’s
gate for entrance. St. Peter (by the le
gend) is the porter, and suffered his wife
to enter in. “She is gone in, both for her
self and thee. As thy wife went to church
for tliee, so she must go to heaven for
thee.”
A Man Ills Ow n Grandfather.
(Translated for the N. Haven Register.]
A European friend of mine related the
following story : I married a widow, who
had a grown-up daughter. My father visit
ed our house very often, fell in love with
my stop-daughter, and married her. So
my father became my soa-in-law, and my
step-daughter my mother, because she was
my father’s wife. Some time afterwards
my wife got a son—he was my father’s
brother-in-law, and my uncle, for lie was
the brother of my stop-mother,
My father’s wife, i. e. my step-daughter,
had also a son, lie was of course my broth
er, and in the meantime my grandchild,
for he was the son of my daughter.
My wife was my grandmother, because
she was my mother’s mother. I was my
wife’s husband and grandchild at the same
time. And as the husband of a person’s
grandmother is his grandfather, I was my
own grandfather.

riMITS INSTITUTION IIAS BEEN
1 |>aying for the past year, fifteen cents on the dollar
for the Certilicates of Deposit which it issued during the
war in exchange for Confederate money. This ,per
centage has been paid on the rocomrneudation of a com.
iriittoe composed of Dr. Joseph Milligan, Josiah Sibley,
Esq., anil W. J. Owens, Esq., three disinterested citi
zens of Augusta, of high character and position, who -x
--arnined and valued all the assets of tlie, Bank. This val
uation did not amount to fifteen per cent, of our circula
tion, but the committee estimated that we might be abb
to pay this percentage on the supposition that many ot
the bills had been lost or destroyed. Since their exaiui
nation, all tbs exchange, coin, bullion, bank bills, bonds,
stocks, coupons, cotton and merchandise held by the
Bank have been sold. Some of these have proved to ho
less valuable than the estimate of the committee, and
some more ; but on the whole an advance of nearly twen
ty per cent, lias been realized ; so* that the Bank will be
able to pay eighteen cents in the dollar for its change
bills, unless tin- number destroyed shall be found to be
smaller than was anticipated. No larger per centage than
this can be paid hereafter, as we have nothing now to ap
preciate.
We have, recently investigated the amount received by
the Bank for its certificates, counting the Confederate
money at its value when received, and find that it was
less than eighteen cents iu the dollar; so that, this Bunk
will pay hereafter not only to its depositors, but to its hill
holders, tlie full amount k received.

last Legislature, will redeem the change bills of the “An
