'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.

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.

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. Thomas Uarlanp.' Acting Commissioner 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, Circular from Ihe Internal Revenue Bureau. The following circular, giving directions for affixing stamps upon vessels containing fermented liquors, aud cancelling the same, has just been issued by the Acting Com missioner of Internal Revenue: Treasury Department, 1 Office of Internal Revenue. 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. Farewell, Mother, 1 Must Go. IIY TIIOMAS MAXAUAN.

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.

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.

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. , Anii ,"' e h‘iii them as destructive to Radicalism, and as bringing hope and healing, and assured promise of Constitu tional restoration. The following lines were written by Tyrone Power, the famous Irish comedian, who perished on tiro steamer President. They were inscribed on the wall of the “Old BlandfordChurch,near Petersburg, Va.: Thou art crumbling to the dust, old pile ! Thou art hastening to thy fall; And around thee, in thy loneliness, Clings the ivy to the wall; Tin. worshippers are scattered uow, Who knelt before thy shrine, ! And silence reigns where anthems rose, , 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! *How would our very hearts bestirred To meet the earliest gazo I Os the lovely and the beautiful— I The lights of other days! Trifles. What should a mail do when his hoots leak ? Take to his pumps, of course. W lint is the difference bet ,reen a sum mer dress in winter and an extracted tooth? One is too-tliin and the other tooth-out. Have the courage to prefer comfort and propriety to fashion in all things. It is better to love the person you cannot marry, than to marry the person you can not love. A cow recently died in Maine, and a piece of a hoop skirt was found in her throat. It is supposed she swallowed the milk maid. ’lo an indigent person who was per petually boasting of his ancestry, an in dustrious, successful tradesman, of humble origin, observed, “ You, my friend, are proud of your descent —I am proud of my ascent. ’ ’ When a man and woman are made one by a clergyman, the question is, which is the one. Sometimes there is a long strug gle between them before the matter is finally settled. ‘‘Married couples resembled a pair of shears, ” says Sydney Smith, “so joined that they cannot he separated, often mov ing in opposite directions, yet always pun ishing any one who comes between them. A jealous husband being absent from home, went to a clairvoyant in London to know what his wife was doing. “Ah,” cried the clairvoyant, “ I see her; she ex pects someone; the door opens; he conics; she caresses him fondly; he lays his head on her lap, and” (husband mad with rage) “he wags his tail.” It was tfce dog. There is an old tale, of which, though idle in itself, the use may be good. A cer tain man who would never go to church, 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. The Real Strengthening Tonic (Not a Whiskey Preparation.) HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS WILL CUKE DEBILITY !

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. The new Savings Bank of Augusta, chartered by the last Legislature, will redeem the change bills of the “An gust a Savings Bank,'” at their office No. 228 Brood street II ii.
