So at last Pinch has failed to be re cognized by his Radical friends in Washington. For a long time Pinch lias boon knocking at the Senate Chamber for admission, and for the same length of time have Morton A Cos, boon whispering to him through a key hole, to “hold on.” Pinch lias ; holiion so long until lie and the Sen ate both grew wearied ; so the Senate by a majority of three deeid'-d not to; act In his cane until nett December. This is treating Pinch very badly, but not with half the unrelenting eruelty they have been practicing; upon Mrs. Pinchbaek. Sho hail been told by hor dear Pinch and her friends Morton and Butler that there was no trouble in Pinch’s ease, and of no urge he would lie seated. Act ing on these mild suggestions and promises, Mrs. Pinch made Mr. Pinch strain his .credit, and get the wherewith to purchase an outlay be eoming un Amerioun Senator’s wife. She bought for herself silks and sat ins to dress for the grand mitre in Washington society, and to create a stir at Newport this summer. She I described as completely disgusted with human expectations, and for the want of a more profitable job daring the time between now and Decemlier, will engage as cook in a | restaurant. Pinch is also very much deceived, and is unwilling to trust his secrets to his best friends. The probability ol his returning home and resuming the “shovel and de hoe” does not seem to agree with him. Rutit is a faet that Pinch has been defeated, and his defeat is only a higher evidence of the ingratitude of his party. VTlie poor idiot has been used by the party for along time, and , now is laid away on the shelf, very carefully, and labeled “for futun use.” Tills is indeed a nice way for them to serve a leader in their party. The next thing we expect to ln-ar is that this negro has denounced tie whole crowd, and gone hack to New Orleans. If Pinch waits for glory until he gets Into the next Congress on his present papers, he will indeed wait, a long time, for they have no idea of letting him in, but will eon tinuo to promise himfor ids influence and what he can bring them in tie shape of plunder and illegal votei . Fliltlifti! It* flip IjJi'it. Iu a recent loci arc at Cork, John Mitchel said: "Tho London Timm, indtaal, Ims discov ered a disgraceful crime of wtdeli 1 have tieen guilty—viz: Unit I was a Southern Confederate during th l ' war in America. As to this lust charge, I own the soft im peachment, I was a Confialerate, and were, all (.In' best men that 1 met in Amori - cn. [Hear! iieart] My throe sons served In the Confederate army, amt twoof Uiem fell In buttle, lam not Midi a craven re creant as to affect to la! ashamed of that cause.” How wc admire such men a- John Mitchel. lie was an ardent advocate of our rights, and has never become so cravon us to deuy his allegiance to a government ho gave his services, and to which ho sacrificed two noble sons. John Mitchel is an Irishman, and docs not claim the South us his homo, and yet he clings to tho mem ory of our cause, and in the face of an argument against his qualifications for office, maintains his self-respect by asserting his purest convictions. What a great pity that there are some among us oneo claiming the South and her cause ns theirs, and yet are now often heard to speak in slighting terms about our country and our soldiers. This may bo ac counted for, however, in some cases, for tho luck of principle, and in oth ers a spirit of natural toadyism to those in power. Very frequently we hear men who were iu tho noble Con federate army, now disgrace their comrades by insinuating remarks, but they only represent themselves. They lack the noble attributes of a Confederate soldier, and ns a rule, we find this class of men to havo cither had bombproofs, or returned after a short experience. Would that all revered our cause as does John Mitchel. Go smith, Youht Man, Go Noulh. Even tho Now York Graphic Ims ar rivod at tko conclusion that tlioro is yot good in Nazareth. It says the into Mr. Greeley was probably right when ho advised young New Yorkers to take a few hundred dollars to go West aud buy a farm, but wore he alive now his advice would bo, "go South.” “All through tho Into slave States,” adds tho Graphic, “therouro thousands of noros of tho best possi ble land for sale at exceedingly low rates. Before the war land in the slave States was held in large planta tions by tho slave owners. Many of thoso plantations were confiscated and sold for taxes after the war, and the owners of the remainder found it Impossible, in nine cases out of ten, to work them without slave labor. Tho toturn of prosperity to tho South must bo preceded by the sale of the great plantations in small farms of thirty aud forty acres. It is to the South rather than the West that the typical young man at whom Mr. Greeley used to launch his advice j oughttolook. When it is generally known that good land can be bought in tho best of all climates for the same price that iq asked for land in Minnesota or tho wilder regions of the West, there will be a great over flow of population from the North , and Northeast to the South.” Franck, is tho greatest wheat-pro ducing country in the world.

Kteamku It. E. Lee, March 14. Having a call to New Orleans, with some business in Vicksburg, I em barked on the Western road and reached Meridian about midnight in a driving rain storm. "Hero’s your porter for the Ragsdale Hotel,” salu ted my ears as I emerged from the ears, and hi terror, which the lapse of thirteen years had failed to as suage, I hurriedly entrusted my bag gage. to the colored representative of the “European House.” I escaped Ragsdale no doubt of that fact, but felt very much like a drummer who declared thaf If a traveler went to Ragsdale’s ho would wish lie had tried the European, and if he wont to ! tho European he would be sorry he had not gone fothe D -1. The next ; morning I walked over to look at the ! Ragsdale, which I had not seen since i l was a player in the great, game of j war, thirteen years before. Additions I had been made to the old structure, j but I recognized the old attic, known ' to every rebel soldier who stopped in j Meridian during the war, ns “No. 40.” Under its low roof twice forty were ! nightly put to bed upon long pallets ! encircling the entire room. I romem i her well how I was wont to button ! up my overcoat to the chin and turn in booted and spurred. Tho coat and j bools were retained us some protec ! tion against the tilth of the beds, and ' the spurs for the protection they af ! forded me against my bed fellows, j and the hope that they would kill a score or two of the native population of the place as I tossed in my bug l id | don slumber. Meridian, from an in i significant collection of wooden ! houses, has advanced to place of eight or ten thousand population, with a large number of very substan tial and imposing brick buildings. | The stores are modern and well | stocked, and the place seems to be pros|‘rous, except in the hotel line. : I left it after midnight and nodded | my head off before turning out at ; Jackson for a very fair breakfast. As j the train stopped at a station near I Big Black, a genuine specimen of the ; unwashed rode up upon a- horse | which showed a better acquaintance with hard service thun good care. So evident was this, that a bystander : bantered the owner upon tho appear ance of his charger. Ho swore that this tiling of “currying bosses was and n nonsense,” that it “wurjist like folks, whura man combs his harevery i day lie misses it jist so with a boss, j and both is foolishness, combing and I currying, jist alike, d-n nonsense.” j As this philosopher took passage on I our train, I noticed bis unusually long j walking stick, ami that he quite fre quently resorted to the platform, I where lie would turn it. up as if sight ing at tho moon. A closer watch dis closed tho fact that the stick, made of eaue, tiad had the joints burnt out, save tho bottom one, and with a cork in the other end, formed for tho old fellow an excellent substitute for a pocket flask. It must havo hold a goodly quantity of benzine from the drain it stood between tlio Big Black and Vicksburg. At Meridian I fell under the charge of Hob Garrett, the active, efficient and popular passen ger agent of the Atlanta and Vicks ; burg short line. He informed me that he would soon have on a line of sleepers between Vicksburg and Montgomery, which will make his line a very popular one. He turned me over to Cupt. 8. P. Dustiane, the gentlemanly and clover agent of the Now Orleans mail lino, at Vicks burg, ami (’apt. \V. Campbell, master of the floating palace, the Robert E. Leo. Concluding to take tho river route for New Orleans, I shipped with Cupt. Campbell and that prince of clerks, Mc.Vay, and your renders de siring to visit the Crescent City on pleasure or business would do well to profit, by my experience and try the comfort of this luxurious boat, with the safety guaranteed by the thorough capacity of its affable captain. About, ten o’clock the morning after we left Vicksburg, tho Leo landed at Presi dent Davis’ old plantation, known as tho “Hurrioano l’lace.” It, with two other places, one the property of Joe Davis, now belongs to Montgomery & Sons, former slaves of Mr. Davis. They purchased at long time, and it is said they will have no trouble about paying out. The clerk of tho boat told me that their affairs were as well regulated as any plantation on the river. Two of the sous wore aboard, but I did not see them at tho table or in any way claiming their "civil rights.” I asked one of the colored cabin boys about their polities. He replied, “Hugh, they got too much mouey to be fooling with polities.” Col. Ireland, a fat, good looking dar key, Superintendent and Trustee of the Alcoru (colored) University at Rodney, Miss., was also aboard, but made no effort to demand his rights in tho cabin, a portion of tho Texas being devoted to his color, with alt the comforts enjoyed by white pas sengers. It is said the University will close, as the Colonel and crew have about absorbed the funds. From tho j time I appeared on deck, at nine in i the morning, until I returned to tho cabin after dark, we only passed one craft, a miserable old flat loaded with staves, and only met one, tho steamer Howard, bound for St, Louis. This is not only significant as showing the decrease in business formerly furn ished by this country, naturally so rich but now almost impoverished by political corruption and misrulo, but it also tolls the advantage of rapid transit over water and lines, and should kill Frobel’s big ditch scheme if it had not already died in the hatch j ing. When wo remember that the i railroads take such freight oven as mess pork from Louisville to New Orleans in competition with the finest natural water-way in the world, what can be said for the extravagantly wild enterprise which would dig an artificial one and construct incline plains so enormously expensive Over a route already served by railways which onnuot secure sufficient busi ness to keep them out of the hands of receivers? While the nose of tho Lee was be ing held against the bank, during a landing at Waterproof, Miss., the backward motion of the wheels sent great waves aguinst the shore and finally dislodged a huge slice of earth which had evidently been contem plating a plunge for some time. This is a very common occurrence on this river, and had been witnessed fre quently even on my short trip. I was surprised, though, to see uncovered to the sunlight, probably for the first time in centuries, a huge cypress stump twelve or fifteen feet below the surface of what had been for fifty years a cotton field, for just here the liver had encroached beyond the original leveo und a ndwono had been built further in. Cupt. Campbell no ticing my surprise, informed me that stumps and every appearance of a former forest hud been found sev entv-llve feet below the present sur face. If this mighty river could give up its dead and Us treasure, und its deposits of a thousand years, I could lay bare its secrets, what a history it would unfold. As we moved down the great lapping, roll ing, muddy father of waters, und drifted into a more Southern clime, spring gradually asserted his pres ence by the verdure of the grass-cov ered levees and the refreshing foliage of the willow and cottonwood just budding into renewed life and loveli ness. As I write we are passing the magnificent sugar places of the coast, which tho war set back a quarter of a century, but about which still lingers much of their old beauty and attrac tiveness. In the morning we will wake up in the domain of little Phil Sheridan, so happily rid of his pres ence but not yet free from liis petty i tyranny. Apropos of Sheridan is an ! anecdote which I heard for the first time to-day. While he was getting up his murder list a gentleman wrote | Phil saying that, ho knew Of a most at rocious murder committed in New ! Orleans, and that if not out of date |he would furnish tho name of the ! guilty party, who not only was never ! punished but was not even arrested, i Phillip, not satisfied with the slow | course of tho mail, and knowing that his dispatches are paid for by lhe ! (lovernment, replied over the wires | for tho gentleman to forward his ; facts. Imagine the little fellow’s dis gust when he learned that his corres pondent referred to the murder of Manifold by Benjamin F. Butler. Of I course that murder was ruled out of j date. j Sheridan lias been foiled in his at tempt to ruin a brave people, yet he lis no doubt happy. Does not his ! master iGranti say that he is a great. ! man, and has tender Tecumseh Sher man said that Phil was kind hearted ? Yes; as kind a heart as ever cut a throat, scuttled a ship, burned a barn or murdered defenseless women and children! A good mate for Sheridan is this man Sherman, who sent three hundred Georgia girls from Roswell factory beyond the Northern lines to starve or do worse! Then came lm march to the sea; his war upon wi dows and orphans, upon women and children. Now he adds to his infamy by saying “Phil has a good iieart and a soldier can only obey orders.” Not a thought crosses this man’s mind of his ability to resign rather than obey a monstrous order. Oh, no; that would involve the loss of his salary, I and ho would rather continue to draw" j that and remain General of the Army jin name, if he is not in fact, and is ignored at the war office in Washing ton.
