Chap. XIII. Amendment to the Enrollment
Act.—Authorizes the President to call for such
number of men as the public exigencies may require.
Quotas of wards, towns, &c., to be determined
according to their population, taking
into account the number previously furnished,
for the naval as well as the military service. If
quotas are not filled in time by volunteering, a
draft to be made for the deficiency—volunteering
to go on up to the actual occurrence of the
draft. Enrolled persons may furnish substitutes,
who are not liable to the draft, and who shall
then enjoy an exemption from draft not exceeding
the time for which such substitutes shall
have been accepted. Drafted persons may also
furnish acceptable substitutes, in the same manner.
Exemption, thus obtained, shall not exceed
the time for which such person was drafted.
Any person now in the military or naval service
of the United States, not physically disqualified,
whose term of unexpired service shall not exceed
six months, may be employed as a substitute,
on account of the State for which he enlisted.
The payment of commutation money
exempts only from the immediate quota, and
not from the filling of future quotas ; and in no
case shall exemption, so obtained, extend beyond
one year. The enrollment includes persons
arriving at the age of twenty years before the
draft, aliens who have declared their intentions
years during the present war.
Seamen, drafted,
enlist in the naval service, within eight
after notification ;
provided, that the enlistment
is for the same period required by the
draft ; and that satisfactory proof shall be afthat
the person in question is a seaman
by vocation. Any person now in the military
service may also enlist into the navy, upon making
similar proof with the above ; but the bountymoney,
which he may have received as a soldier,
shall be deducted from the prize-money to
which he may become entitled; provided, that
the whole number of such transfers shall not
exceed ten thousand. Seamen, thus enlisting,
shall be credited to the town, ward, &c., whence
they come, as well as those enlisting into the
marine corps, under such regulations as the
Provost-Marshal General may prescribe. Exempts
from enrollment are those who are physically
unfit for service, all persons who are now
in the military or naval service, and all who
have been honorably discharged therefrom, after
a service of two years, during the present war.
The law for the enrollment into two classes is
hereby repealed. Persons forcibly resisting the
enrollment, shall, upon conviction, be fined not
exceeding five thousand dollars, imprisoned not
exceeding five years, or both, at the discretion
of the court; without being relieved from liability
to the laws of the State in which the offense
may have been committed. Persons conscientiously
opposed to bearing arms, if drafted,
shall be assigned to hospital or other peaceful
duty, or pay the sum of three hundred dollars
for the benefit of sick and wounded soldiers.
Persons of foreign birth are not to be exempted,
if they have voted or held any public oflices under
any State, Territory, or the United States.
Persons obtaining exemption by fraud shall be
deemed deserters, and punished accordingly.
Able-bodied male colored persons shall also be
enrolled, and form part of the national forces
the slaves of loyal masters, upon being drafted,
becoming free, their boimty of one hundred dollars
being paid the former master. A commission,
appointed to each of the loyal Slave States,
shall determine the value of each slave so
drafted, not to exceed three hundred dollars,
payable to loyal masters out of funds derived
from commutations. Colored volunteers or conscripts
shall be credited on the quotas of States
whence they come, but shall be mustered into
service as United States colored troops.

road to be completed within eight years, or the
grant reverts.
Chap. LXXX.— Lands to Wisconsin.—Grants,
upon usual terms, lands to aid in building a
railroad from St. Croix Lake to Lake Superior
a road from Tomah, Monroe Co., to St. Croix
Lake ; and a road from Pon du Lac to Bayfield.
Chap. \jXX.XU1.~ Tunnage. — 'ihii is an
elaborate law upon the subject of measuring tunnage
of vessels.
Chap. IjXXXIW.—Lands to /wca.—Grants
lands for a railroad from Sioux City to the
southern line of Minnesota; also a road from
South McGregor westward near the 43d parallel
to intersect the road first named. The grants
are of alternate odd numbers, ten sections wide
on each side of the roads, with usual guarantees
on a plan similar to that in Great Britain. This
law went into effect on the 1st of November,
1S64, at about 140 post offices. The law is
elaborate and intricate, and mainly for postmasters'
guidance. The object and effect ot
money orders, and how to use them, will best
be understood from the following statement:
The object of the postal money order system is
to provide a cheap, swift, and safe means of
sending small sums of money through the mails,
when bank drafts cannot be readily procured.
The money order is made safer than a bank
draft even, by leaving out of the order the name
of the party for whom the money is intended.
The sums for which one money-order office may
draw on another ranges from one to thirty dollars,
no order being issued for less than one dollar,
nor are fractions of cents to be introduced
into an money order. The commission on orders
not exceeding $10 is ten cents ; over $10 and not
exceeding $20, fifteen cents ; and on those over
$20, up to $30, twenty cents. To obtain an order
for money, apply to the postmaster of one
of the money-order offices. He v.-\\\ furnish the
applicant with a printed blank to be filled out
with all the particulars of amount, name, address,
required to be stated on the money order.
The order is then completed and handed to the
applicant upon payment of the sum named and
the fee, which fee must be paid in money, no
postage stamps being received for fees ; and no
money will be received for orders except coin,
United States notes, or notes of national banks,
and orders cannot be paid in any other currency.
By the mail immediately following the issue of
an order, the postmaster advises the postmaster
at the office on which it was drawn of the fact,
and the latter is thus furnished with all necessary
information before the order itself can be
presented, to enable him to detect fraud, should
any be intended. A money order is rendered
invalid unless presented within ninety days
from its date, to the postmaster on which it was
drawn. But the Postmaster-General can issue a
new order on the application of the payee, and
the paj'ment of a second fee, and a similar plan
is to be pursued when an order is lost ; the payee
furnishes a sworn statement that the order is
lost or destroyed, accompanied by the certificate
of the postmaster that it has not been paid and
will not? be if afterwards presented. A money
order can be transferred by the payee indorsing
it on the back, with the limitation that an order
can be indorsed only once. This is to enable
persons residing at a distance from money-order
offices to avail themselves of the advantages of
the system. The New York office is to do the
banking for all the other offices—will receive the
money taken for all orders, and postmasters
elsewhere will draw on the New York office for
the funds they need.

compromise with rebels, nor to offer any terms
of peace except such as may be based upon an
"unconditional surrender" of their hostility
and a return to their just allegiance to the Constitution
and laws of the United States, and that
we call upon the Government to maintain this
position and to prosecute the war with the utmost
possible vigor to the complete suppression
of the Rebellion, in full reliance upon the selfsacrifice,
the patriotism, the heroic valor, and
the undying devotion of the American people to
their country and its free institutions.
Resolved, That, as Slavery was the cause,
and now constitutes the strength, of this rebellion,
and as it must be always and everywhere
hostile to the principles of republican government,
justice and the national safety demand its
utter and complete extirpation from the soil of
the republic; and that we uphold and maintain
the acts and proclamations by which the Government,
In its own defense, has aimed a deathblow
at this gigantic evil. We are in favor,
furthermore, of such an amendment to the Constitution,
to be made by the people in conformity
with its provisions, as shall terminate and forever
prohibit the existence of Slavery within
the limits of the jurisdiction of the United
States.
Rewired, That the thanks of the American
People are due to the soldiers and sailors of the
Army and Navy, who have periled their lives in
defense of their country, and in vindication of
honor of the Dag ; that the nation owes to
them some permanent recognition of their patriotism
and valor, and ample and permanent
provision for those of their survivors who have
received disabling and honorable wounds in the
service of the country ; and that the memories
of those who have fallen in its defense shall be
held in grateful and everlasUug remembrance.
/le^o? ret/, That we approve and applaud the
practical wisdom, the unselfish patriotism, and
unswei-ving fidelity to the Constitution and the
American liberty, witli which
principles of
Abraham Lincoln has discharged, under circumstances
of unparalleled difficulty, the great duties
and responsibilities and of the Presidential
office; that we approve and bulorse, as demanded

in his determination to carry these and
all other constitutional measures essential to

Resolved, That we deem it essential to the

who cordially indorse the principles proclaimed

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.
The Democratic National Convention which
gathered at Chicago on the 29th of August, and
presented the names of GEORGE B. McCLEL-
LAN for President, and GEORGE H. PENDLE-
TON for Vice-President, agreed on and adopted
the following
!
That in the future, as in the past,
Re°.olved,
we will adhere with unswerving fidelity to the
Union under the Constitution, as the only solid
foundation of our strength, security, and happiness
as a people, and as a framework of government
equally conducive to the welfare and prosperity
of all the States, both Northern and
Southern.
That this Convention does exdec!?re,
as the sense of the American
People, that, .il't'T four years of failure to restore
the Union iiy the experiment of war, diuring
which, under the pretense of a military necessity
of a war power higher than the Constitution,
the Constitution itself has been disregarded in
every part, and public liberty and private right
alike trodden down, and the material prosperity
of the country essentially imvaired, justice, humanity,
liberty, and the public welfare, demand
that immediate efforts be made for a cessation
of hostilities, with a view to an ultimate Convention
of all the States, or other peaceable
means to the end that at the earliest practicable
moment peace may be restored on the basis of
the Federal Union of the States.
Reaolved, That the direct interference of the
military authority of the United States in the
recent elections held in Kentucky, Maryland,
Missouri and Delaware, was a shameful violation
of the Constitution, and the repetition of such
acts in the approaching election will be held as
revolutionary, and resisted with all the means
and power under our control.
Reiiohied, That the aim and object of the
Democratic party is to preserve the Federal
Union and the rights of the States unimpaired
and they hereby declare that they consider the
Administrative usurpation ot extraordinary and
dangerous powers not granted by the Constitution,
the subversion of the civil by military law
will receive all the care and protection, regard
and kindness, that the brave soldiers of the Republic
have so nobly earned.

What the steam-engine proves, compared to horse-power, this beautiful machine Is when
set In opposition to the slow, patient progress of the ordinary needle. Anna S. Stephens.
I find your machine invaluable. I have used it a year, and it has never been out of order.
The Stitch Is very durable and can be adanted to fine or coarse materials. It works with the
rapidity of a dozen hands; saves much time, fatigue and expense. One of your machines is
used in my father's family, another in the household of a sister, and others by various friends.
The opinions of all accord with that I have just expressed.
Anna Cora Sitchie.
Of it we! can speak with entire clearness and confidence, after the use of one four yearsor
more in our ir family. We look upon it as one of the benefactions of the age, and one which will
constitute an era in the history of woman.
Mrs. E. Oake% SmHh.
Mrs. Vinton desires me to express to yon her entire satisfaction with your Sewing Machine.
I may add that, judging from the frequency of the rapid tick of this machine, it promotes both
industry and pleasure. My purse bears witness that the Sewing Machine, among its other excellencies,
is a household economy.
Rev. Di'. Francis Vtnton
Your admirable Needle woman is the only seamstress that defies extortionate men. They
cannot cheat it, nor starve it, nor deprive it of sleep, nor tire it out, nor make its hands weary.
It is a worker that is a match for the most unwearied and avaricious manufacturer. At last I
am thanliful that there is a Machlne-'Woinan that cannot be oppressed nor kept in suflering.

ARTICLES OF EVERY-DAY USE.
B. T. Babbitt is the manufacturer of the following celebrated articles, all of which bear
the maker's name
"Medicinal," "Sheaf Wheat," and "Union," Saleratus ;
Soap Powder,
Yeast Powder, Medicinal Yeast, Concentrated Potash, "Extra
Starch," Cream Tartar, Sal Soda, Baking Soda,
Arrow Root, &c., &c.
MAKE TOUR OWN SOAP with B.'*. Babbitt's
PURE CONCENTRATED POTASH, warranted double the strength of
common Potash, and superior to any other saponifier or ley in market. Put up in cans of
one pound, two pounds, three pounds, six pounds, and twelve pounds, with full directions
in English and German, for making Hard and Soft Soap. One pound will make fifteen gallons
of Soft Soap. No lime is required. Consumers will find this the cheapest Potash in
market.
B. T. BABBITT'S MEDICINAL SALERATUS. -A perfectly pure
and wholesome article, free from all
deletereous matter; so prepared that, as the circular
accompanying the Saleratus will show, nothing remains in the bread when baked but common
salt, water, and flour. Put up neatly in papers, one pound, half pound, and quarter
pound.
B. T. BABBITT'S CONCENTRATED SOFT SOAP.—One box, costing
$2.00, will make forty gallons of handsome Soft Soap, by simply adding boiUng water.
B. T. BABBITT'S LABOR-SAVING SOAP.—B. T. Babbitt has for a
long time been experimenting, and has now produced an article of Soap that is composed
of the best washing material, and at the same time will not rot or injure the clothes in the
slightest possible manner. He stamps his name on each bar, and guarantees that the Soap
will not injure the most delicate fabric, while it will be found to be the most pleasant washing
soap ever offered in market. It is made from clean and puke materials, contains no
adulteration of any kind, and is especially adapted for woolens, which will not shrink after
being washed with this Soap. Ask for B. T, BABBITT'S SOAP, and take no other. Each
bar is wrapped in a circular containing full directions for use, printed in English and German.
One pound of this Soap is equal to three pounds of ordinary family soap. Directions
sent in each box for making one pound of the above Soap into three gallons of handsome
Soft Soap. It will remove paint, grease, tar, and stains of all kinds. It will not injure
the fabric; on the contrary, it preserves it. It will wash in hard or salt water. But
little labor is required where this Soap is used. Machinists and printers will find this Soap
superior to anything in market.
DR.
TALBOT'S CONCENTRATED
lEiieiL piiiipPLE iieii
IS A PREVENTIVE OF SICKNESS.
The experience that Dr. Talbot has had for the last twenty-five years, convinces him
that it is time the public had an article offered that will prevent sickness. The article
offered is Dr. Talbot's Medicated Pineapple Cider, designed for all classes, old and ytyung.
It is not new to the Doctor, but it is entirely new to the public. One quart bottle will
last a well person a year. This is rather a new mode of doctoring; nevertheless it will
save millions from being sick. Is it not better to pay three dollars a year to keep from
being sick, than to pay ten or twenty dollars in doctor's bills, and as much more for the; loss
of time and inconvenience of being sick ? _
To prevent sickness, use as follows: Add one teaspoonful of Medicated Pineapple
Cider to a tumbler of cold water, and drink the first thing after you rise in the morning,
and the same before you retire at night.
It will increase the strength and give vif/or and action to the system.
A celebrated New York merchant who "has made a thorough trial of the Pineapple
Cider, assures Dr. Talbot that he has gained ten pounds of flesh in one month, at the first
trial. He continues its use as above directed, and finds it very beneficial ; says it has
proved an entire j>reventive to sickness in his case. Also another well known gentleman
in New York has used the Medicated Cider constantly for ten years, and has not
been sick one day during that time. -

THIS WONDERFUL PREPARATION
Will increase the strength, give vigor and action to the system, and regulate digestion.
When taken internally, for pains of all kinds—Bilious CoTc, Diarrhoea, Diseases of the
Throat, Pains in the Chest, Hoarseness, Coughs, Neuralgia, Rheumatic Pain?, Dyspepsia,
Acidity of the Stomach, etc., etc., its soothing and quieting eflfect on the system is most
astonishing.
Dr. Wilcox, an eminent physician, employed it with great success in treating Fevers,
Dyspepsia, Nervous Affections, Loss of Appetite, Weakness, Palpitation of the Heart,
Chronic Diarrhoea, Colic Dysentery, and Diseases of the stomach and Bowels. It is
also particularly recommended by physicians to delicate females, and as an excellent
remedy for Enfeebled Digestion, Want of Appetite, Scrofula, Nephritic Affections, Rheumatism,
etc., etc. It never fais to relieve Nervous Tremor, Wakefulness, Disturbed Sleep, etc.
American Ladies have used this article with great success to heighten their color
and beauty.
It imparts cheerfulness to the disposition, and Brilliancy to the Complexion,'
To travelers, especially, it is of inestimable value, and should be provided as a medi;
cine for every journey in which the water is likely to vary in quality and tendency.
Persons residing in any part of the country may adopt it with the utmost confidence as
a timely, efficacious restorative.
TO CITHE CATARRH.—What is the Catarrh ? ~ It is a defluxion or increased
secretion of mucus from the membranes of the nose, fauces and bronchiae, with fever,
sneezing, cough, thirst, lassitude, and loss of appetite, and sometimes an entire loss of
taste, called also a cold. An Epidemic Catarrh is called Influenza, a chronic affection of tke
mucua membrane of the nostrils and fauces. To cure above, add to half a pint of cold
water ten drops of Dr. T. B. Talbot's Medicated Pineapple Cider; take
some of the mixture in your hand and snuff it up your nose, until it comes out of your
mouth; be thorough with the snuffing, in order to reach the affected parts. It may take
six months to cure, but a decided improvement will be observed in thirty days.

64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 70, 72 & 74 WASHINGTON ST., New York.
TO CURE COIjDS.—A sure cure for a bad cold is four table-spoonsful of Dr. T.
B. Talbot's Medicated Pineapple Cider when you retire. A cold is the foundation
of most diseases. Who would not readily buy a whole bottle of Pineapple Cider if
they were sure it would cure ? Any one who buys a bottle of this Pineapple Cider, and is
not satisfied with it, can return the same and have the money refunded.
TO CURE FEVERS OF ANY KIND.—Add ten drops of Dr. T. B.
Talbot's Medicated "Pineapple Cider to a quart of cold water, iced if handy;
saturate a cloth with the preparation, and apply to the affected parts ;
also add five
drops to a tumbler of cold water, and drink every ten minutes. The fever will soon be
removed.
TO CURE SORE THROAT.—Add ten drops of Dr. T. B. Talbot's Medicated
Pineapple Cider to a pint of cold water, and use as a gargle ;
put a wet cloth
around your neck when you retire.
TO CURE RHEUMATISM.—Add to one-half pint of hot water a wine-glass
full of Dr. T. B. Talbot's Medicated Pineapple Cider, and take every fifteen
minutes. Apply hot, wet flannels to the parts affected, and a suie cure will follow in a
short time.
AMERICAN liADIES, to heighten their color and beauty, should take one*
table-epoonful of Dr. T. B. Talbot's Medicated Pineapple Cider at dinner,
also when they retire at night, and when they rise in the morning.
TO CURE DYSPEPSIA.—Add two spoonsful of Dr. T. B. Talbot's
Medicated Pineapple Cider to a wine-glass full of water, and take before or while
eating.
TO CURE COUaHS.—Add one table-spoonful of Dr. T. B. Talbot's
Medicated Pineapple Cider to a half-pint of water ;
take once in two hours.

To each quart of flour, add two teaspoonsful of the Ybast and the usual quantity of
salt; mix them thoroughly together whiie dry, then add cold water or sweet. milk; make
the dough as thin as can be moulded into a biscuit ; the thinner the dough is the whiter
and lighter they will be. No shortening is required for Biscuit when milk is used, and very
little when water is used. Bake at once.
Buckwheat Cakes should have three teaspoonsful mixed with the flour while dry ; and
mix no more at a time than is wanted. Use it for Pot-pies, Pie-crust, Plum Puddings,
Johnny Cakes, Indian Cakes, Cornmeal Cakes, Corn Bread, Batter Cakes, and Fried Cakes
or Doughnuts, all kinds of Sweet Cakes, and all kinds of pastry.
OBSER,V.A.TIONS.
Bread made in this manner contains nothing but Floflr, Common Salt, and Water. It
has an agreeable, natural taste : keeps much longer than common bread ; is more digestible,
and much less disposed to turn acid. Common bread, like everything that has been
fermented, ferments easily again, to the great discomfort of many stomachs ;
and not only
so, but acting as a ferment, it communicates a similar action to all food in contact with it.
The Bread being free from all yeastly particles, is more digestible, and not so likely to
create flatulence or turn acid on weak stomachs, as fermented bread is apt to do. And
when of the finest quality, it is beneficial to those who sufi'er from headache, acidity, flatulence,
eructations, a sense of sinking at the pit of the stomach, distention, or pains after
meals, and to all who are subject to gout or gravel. It is also useful in many affections
of the skin.
These remarks apply to both varieties of the Bread, but especially to the Brown, which
is further invaluable to all who are liable to constipation from torpidity of the colon, or
large intestine, the common infirmity of the sedentary, and of those who have been accustomed
to oatmeal diet in their youth.
But the advantages of the process are not limited to mattei^ relating to health. It is
valuable, because bread can be prepared by it in the short space of half an hour, thus
saving much time and labor, and emancipating journeymen bakers from the slavery of
night-work. It is valuable also, because the materials are not perishable, and may be rendered
available in places and at times when yeast or other ferment is not within reach, as
at sea, for example, or in country retirements; and it is still more valuable as regards
economy. The cost of the chemicals is counterbalanced by that of the yeast, salt, and
alum otherwise employed ; but were it not so, they would form an altogether unimportant
item in the price of bread ; while by their use a saving is effected in the flour of not less
than twenty-three per cent. In the common process, much of the saccharine part of the
flour is lost by being converted into carbonic acid and spirit—and thus waste is incurred
solely for the purpose of getting carbonic acid to raise the dough. By the new method
waste is avoided, and the gas obtained in a manner equally beautiful and efficacious.
Another striking instance of the successful application of Chemical Philosophy to the common
arts of life. Fermentation (as has been before stated) destroys part of the flour or
meal. We find in consequence that 280 pounds, which makes 860 pounds of bread by fermentation,
gives by the new process 880 pounds, or 102 loaves.

UNEQUALED GOLD MEDAL
PATENT CYCLOID PIANO-FORTES
were unanimously awarded, at the late Fair of the American Institute, the
FIRST PREMIUM GOLD MEDAL, OVER ALL OTHERS,
for novelty, superiority, and excellence. Similar testimonials were awarded these
superb instruments at the State Fairs of Michigan, Indiana, and Kansas, for 18C5,
and wherever they have been exhibited in competition.
—
DESCRIPTION.—The Patent Cycloid Piano is the most elegant in Form, the
most exquisite in Tone, the strongest and the most enduring, and will stand in Tune
longer than any other Piano-forte manufactured in the world. The Case is composed
of Twenty-six quarter-inch Tough "Wood Veneers, Glued and Pressed into
a single solid unyielding mass of the required cycloid form, of immense and uniform
strength throughoutits entire sweep, which no strain of the strings can affect
in the least degree. The Cycloid or Arch form is not only the tj'pe of Strength
and Beauty, but it is, like the form of the violin, the true form to secure the best
possible acoustic effects, which accounts for the wonderful purity, breadth, delicacy,
solidity, and grandeur of Tone which distinguish these unequaled instruments.
TZ:STZ3MON'IAIiS.
" We consider the Cycloid Piano as a great advance upon the prevailing system
of construction, and as approaching as near to a Perfect Instrument as our present
knowledge enables us to conceive or to construct." JVcw York Daily, Setni-
WeeUy, and Weekly Tribune, February 28, 1865.
"The tone of the Cycloid Piano is large, solid, and \favQ; the mechanism is excellent,
and the construction in every way faithful. "We consider the Cycloid
Piano a great success, and rank it among the first and best manufactured in the
country, with specialties peculiar to itself." Watson's Art Journal.
GoTTscHALK says: " It is the finest instrument of the Square class that I have
ever tried. The tone comes out as rich and solid as that of a Grand Piano. I have
tested it as I would a Grand Piano for points of delicacy and points of strength, and
it has stood the test in every way."

Battle Fields, etc., with neventyjine steel-plate Partraita of Generals and other Distinguished
Persons connected with the war, both North and South.
VoLDME II.—In the preparation of the closing volume, the author has availed himself of
every source of trustworthy information, including the complete Offieial Ueporls of loth Union
and Confederate authorities. Numerous facts from the Confederate side not given in any
Public Document, many of which will be recognized as of the gravest importance in a military
point of view, will also be found in this volume. While this work will be vastly superior to anything
before the public in respect to fullness and accuracy, it will present a feature not less
striking, in the information given from the Rebel side.
Volume II.— completing the work—will be issued at the earliest day consistent with thoroughness
and accuracy— pr.ibably not later than the Spring of 1866. It will be fully equal to Vol. I.
in all respects, and will contain a larger number of pages. Portraits, and Diagrams of Battle
Fields, besides an elegant copper-plate Map or the Seat of Wak, 23x83 inches, engraved
expressly for this work.
NOTICES OF THE PRESS.
,
From the Boston Recorder.
This is a valuable and great work. It takes broad views, has a philosophical arrangement,
traces the sources of the rebellion back to the beginning of slavery in our government, and
follows it with a master-hand through all the efforts to reconcile and compromise, and through
the terrific blaze of tjiis great war for the Union.
From the Albany Eveninr/ Journal.
No man in America is more conversant with the subject than Mr. Greeley, and none more
competent to do it justice. This Historical sketch will stand as a monument of patient and
laborious research. * * * We confess that in this part of the work we are agreeably disappointed.
It is pervaded by a spirit of catholicity and a freedom from partisan leaning that
some of his best friends did not expect.
From the New York World.
Mr. Geeelft as a HiiWRlAU.—He has few equals as a writer of vigorous English. He is
terse, racy, direct, going straight to the heart of the subject as it presents itself to his view,
hitting it off occasionally by a dash of grotesque humor, but more frequently irradiating it with
gleams of shrewd, homely sense.
From, the Cincinnati Enqtiirer.
It is of course a history from a standpoint of observation far distant from our own, and from
that of the Democracy generally ; but it is marked by much less prejudice, and is disfigured by
far less partisan feeling, than most of our friends would imagine. It contains a vast amount of
information, and is altogether superior to any volume on the subject that has yet appeared.
From the Cleveland Plaindealer.
While honestly dissenting from the views of Mr. Greeley, the politician, we commend the
book of Mr. Greeley, the Historian, to the respectful consideration of a candid public. As a
writer and statistician, he has few equals in this or any other country.
From the Atlantic Monthly.
The present work presents in vivid outhnes, and with striking Illustrations, the action of
political causes with which the author has been as familiar as with the alphabet of his mother
tongue.
Fromthe Weaiminster (London) lietieic.
The essence of every Important document from the formation of the Government and the
practical bearing of every event, are succinctly stated; and, if we may admire the industry
which has enabled the editor of the leading newspaper in America to do this at such a time, we
may still more admire the spirit of fairness and directness which cbaracterizethis very valuable
work.

GRAND, SQUARE, AND UPRIGHT
Are now acknowledged the best instruments ia America as well as in Europe,
having taken Thirty-two First Premiums, Gold and Silver Medals, at the principal
fairs held in this country withia the last ten years, and in addition thereto they
'
were awarded a First Prize Medal at the Great luternatiimal Exhibition in
London, in 1862, in competition with two hundred and sixty-nine pianos from all
parts of the world.
Among the many and most valuable improvements introduced by Messrs.
Steixwat & Sons in their Piano-fortes the special attention of purchasers is
directed to their PATENT AGRAFFE ARRANGEMENT.
The value and importance of this invention having been practically tested,
in all their grands and highest-priced square Piano-fortes, and admitted to be the
greatest improvement of modern times, they now announce that their " Patent
Agraffe Arrangement " will be introduced in every Piano-forte manufactured
by them, without increase of cost to the purchaser, in order that all their patrons
may reap the full advantage of this great improvement.
Extract from the Testimonial of tJie most dlsti7ic/uished Artists to Stki^tway & Sons,
j
"Among the chief points of the uniform excellence of th(^STEiNWAY Pianos are
" Greatest possible depth, richness, and volume of tone, combined with a rare
brilliancy, clearness, and perfect evenness throughout the entire scale, and,
above all, a surprising duration of sound, the pure and sympathetic quality of
which never changes uuder the most delicate or powerful touch.
" We therefore consider the Steinway Pianos in .all respects the best Instrumonts
made in this country or in Europe, use them solely and exclusively ourselves
in public or private, and recommend them invariably to our friends and
the public.

FAMILY NECESSITIES.
If people would always keep well, if disease never invaded the household, or broke in
upon the family circle, one of the great anxieties of life would be unknown. Unfortunately,
in our highly artificial state of existence, surrounded as we are by a thousand influences that
sway and distort our being, every one of which, acting upon our highly nervous organization,
may be a lever to jostle us from our position, or a potence to lay us down helpless as an infant
of days. Under these circumstances experience teaches that disease or pain will be frequent
visitors at our dwelling. Much we can unquestionably do to preVent these visits by proper
rules of eating, drinking, sleeping and living; but after all is done that can well '.)e done in a
well-regulated household, the demands of disease will be sufficient to tax our patience and call
for the best possible provision to meet its demands.
Much of medical practice is and must of necessity ever be with the head of the family.
The mother notices the first symptoms of disease, and listens to the first complaints, and directs
the first and often most important treatment. Of late years the old root and herb, and
picra and paregoric system, has been displaced by the Specific Homeopathic, and
in every well-regulated family the box of specifics and book of directions has become common
as '• household words."' The result is an immense gain on the score of health and economy. In
thousands of cases disease is airested, and what might otherwise have been a formidable
sickness passes off as a trifling ailment. Sickness is thus prevented ; even such formidable
diseases as the cholera, or scarlet fever, diphtheria, or others, are kept at bay by using
the simple specific preventives, and the household reposes in a condition of security and
exemption formerly unknown. The visits of the doctor are rare, and he comes more as a kind
adviser in emergencies than as the minister of sickness. We can but consider the introduction
of these HOMEOI'ATHIC SPECIFICS BY DR. HUMPHREYS, so simple, so harmless, so
economical, and yet so efficient, as a happy omen and an auspicious consummation for our
common humanity.

CHICKERING &
MANUFACTURERS OF
SONS,
This Great American Firm, Established in 1823, has manufactured 30,000 Pianos, for the
superiority of which JbHfty-five Prize Medals have lieen awarded tliera at exhibitions in
Ihe United Slates, being the UIGHEST PREMIUMS OVER ALL COMPETITION. They also
received the Prize Medal at the World's Fair in London, in ISol. The names of Thalbero,
Benedict, and D. Black, need only be referred to to show of what class the judges upon this
occasion were composed.
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
!
From the New York Tribune, November 27, 1S65.
The instrument upon which she (Mme. Abel) played was unquestionably the finest piano we
have ever heard in public or private. Every tone U pure, liquid, and beautiful; clear in its
vibrations, sweet, vocal, and melodious ; and powerful, without a particle of harshness, even where
forced to its greatest strength. It literally sings through its whole register, which is so admirably
graduated that not the shghtest break occurs through the entire scale. Its tone is unspeakably
lovely, full of sentiment, and capable of every shade of artistic coloring and expression suggested
by the imagination or the feeling of the composer or the player. It is the exponent of the
greatest perfection that has yet been achieved in the manufacture of the Grand Piano.
From the Nexo York ITerald.
Iler efforts (Madame Abel's) during the evening were greatly assisted by one of the richest,
broadest and most powerful-toned Grand Pianos we ever heard—the same instrument we
understand which took the Gold Medal at the Boston Fair (October, 1SG5), and made by
Chickeeing & Sons.
From Watso7i^s Weekly Art Journal.
Madame Abel performed on the new Chickbring Grand, which took the Gold Medal at the
Pair of the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics' Association, held at Boston last month. It is
the noblest instrument we ever heard in a concert room. Grand in power without noise;
capable of sustaining any amoun., of forcing without losing the rich purity of its tone; clear,
bright and beautiful throughout the entire range, every tone is a pure pearl of sound, sympathetic
and vocal as the finest human voice cultivated to the highest point of perfection. It is
an instrument that throws the famous Erards far into the shade and gives America the supremacy
in the manufacture of Grand Pianos.
From a Discourse on Pianos by Henry Ward Beecher (N. Y. Independent, Dec. 7, 1S65).
"We never dreamed of going higher. To own a Chickering Grand seemed always like a
dream. But dreams do come to pass sometimes ! There stands one of the noblest of all pianos
—a Chickering Grand— in our parlor, and there is but one thing more that fortune can do for
us, viz.: breathe upon us some night the power of playing upon it ! Had all Europe offered us a
choice of instruments, we should still have chosen a Chickering."
OPINIONS OF GREAT ARTISTS.
THALBERG.
" I consider Chickering & Sons' Pianos beyond comparison the best I have ever seen in
America." .
GOTTSCHALK.
"I consider Chickering & Sons' Pianos superior to any in the world. They are unrivaled
for their singing qualities, and for the harmonious roundness of their tone. There is a perfect
horaogenity throughout all the registers. The upper notes are remarkable for a clearness and
purity which I do not find in any other instrument, while the bass Is distinguished for power
without harshness and for a magnificent sonority."

Inventive genius has not merely been directed to the physical needs of the people ; the
necessities of our life have had their champions, and the intellectual luxuries, which are at once
its solace and its ornament, have been fostered and developed to a degree that shames the
expeiieuce of the old world. In the short space of thirty years we have become the manufacturers
of our own musical instruments; in this we ask nothing of Europe now , we have learned
all she knows, and something more besides, and we have changed the course of trade which was
from East to AVest to from West to East.
There is scarcely a musical instrument which we do not make, and with scarcely an exception,
our manufacture equals, and in some cases surpasses the workmanship of European models. Our
Flutes already rival those of the English, while they surpass in richness of tone and elegance of
the finest made in Germany. Our Harps, in all points, tone, elegance, finish,aud
mechanical appliance, are altogether unsurpassed. Our Brass Instruments, in their variety
and excellence are fully equal to those of France, while our Guitars in all points of workman-
ship and in durability in this climate, are preferred to the finest specimens from Spain or Italy.
In the manufacture of Violins we have made rapid strides towards excellence, and although very
far behind the great old makers whose names have a world-wide fame, we can claim a fair equality
with most of the modern European Violins. In Reed Instruments, such as Melodeons, and
Parlor Organs.'America has no equal in the world. These instruments were literally created
here, their superiority is everywhere acknowledged, and we are satisfied that when some
enlightened community shall decide to spend $60,000 or $70,000 upon the building of a great
organ, and shall give the contract at home and not abroad, we shall have an organ equal in
every respect to any of foreign make, and superior in some points, especially of wood which
will stand the climate.
The Instrument, however, in which the most important improvements have been made, is the
Piano-forte—the instrument which is the most popular throughout the world.
The Piano-forte, was, of course, invented somewhere, although it was more properly a
gradual improvement from one thing to another than an invention in its present form. There
are two claimants for the honor of creating the original instrument, and both have strong supporters.
By one party it is attributed to Cristofali, a Paduan ; by the other to Schroeuer, of
Dresden, Saxony. We need not stop to discuss the riyal claims. The date of the invention is
said to be 1711, but the piano really rose but little above the dignity of a Harpsichord until half
a century later, when the genius of Era.rd, followed by Plevbl, Broadwood, and Cou.ard,
developed its resources and powers, which, until then, were undreamed of. But these great
makers did not exhaust its powers. There was something left for America to do—some an gift
from us to the old world, to be purchased by deep thought and laborious experiment, or won
by the inspiration of a fortunate moment.
j
mmcvin mnsicHl MnsitnmtntB.
The inventive genius of the American people is ever active, never resting ; it embraces in
its grasp the merest trifles and the mightiest conceptions, from a toy to point a lead pencil, to a
lever to raise a pyramid. That whatever has been done can be improved on, and whatever is
needed for the good of the human family can be produced, are American dogmas. They are
so purely indigeoous to the soil, that all who seek asylum here find new springs of action, new
incentives to ambition, and a broadening of the mind which has been dwarfed by the cramping
influence of small nationaUties.
This one point which has revolutionized the manufacture of piano-fortes nearly all over the
world, and has added so greatly to the power and the capacity of the instrument, is the system
of overitringing the bass, the principle of which was established, developed, and perfected, by
Steinway & Sons, of New York. An instrument of this class, overstrung and with two bridges
in the bass, was exhibited by the Steinways in 1S55, at the Crystal Palace, New York. There
was a great competition, many of the best makers exhibiting, but the full, richly sonorous tone,
and extraordinary power of the Steinway Piano gained, by the unanimous judgment of the
jury, the first premium gold medal. Public opinion coincided perfectly with this verdict, and
the reputation of the Stki.nwats was a settled fact from that day, and their business increased
with a rapidity altogether unprecedented, rising in twelve years from the very humble beginning
of one piano-forte a week, to a grand total of 12,000 pianos, grand, square, and upright,
averaging now over 2,300 per annum. In 1S55, at the Metropolitan Fair in Washington City,
they received two first prize medals ; in November of the same year, the first prize gold medal
at the American Institute, New York ; in ISoti, the first prize gold medal of the Maryland Institute
at Baltimore, and the American Institute at the Crystal Palace in New York ;
and in 1S57,
the first premium gold medal of the Maryland Institute again. Altogether in ten years they
have received no less than thirty-two first premiums in the shfpe of gold and silver medals, at
the various fairs and exhibitions in Cincinnati, St. Louis, Chicago, and elsewhere.

constantly increasing
."''*'' ^^^ attention of the whole trade, and in a short
^K T w' H«f time nearly every piano ta
the United States was made upon the overstrung principle.
In 1S62, at the International Exhibition of London, the Steinwat Pianos secured the
greatest victory yet obtained by them. There were 26y pianos on exhibition, from the manulactories
of nearly all the celebrated makers on the continent and in Knpland The jury
appointed was of the liishest character, embracing such names as Sternuale Bennktt musical
director. Professor at Cambridge; I. IS. Black, M.J).; Fktts, of Uelgium ; Eknst 1'adkr, of
Austria; Sir *. Gokk Ousley, Professor of Music at Oxford; I. Schiedmayer, Instrument maker
Zollverein; •
the Karl of Wilton; He.nry Wildr, musical director; and others of note and
position. The most thorough examination was made of all the instruments exhibited and the
feTKiNWAYS were awarded a First Class Prize Medal, " For powe.ful, clear, brilliant, and sympathetic
tone, and excellent workmanship as shown iu grand and square piano-fortes."
was unquestionably a great triumph for the firm, and justified the expressed opinion
on this side of the Atlantic of such artists as Mills, Mason, Uellkr, Pattison, 'Hum, Maretzbk
,
ANSCHUTZ, Eisfeld, Peasb, Goldbeck, and many others, who, in their open certificates enumerate
among the chief points of excellence presented by these pianos, "The greatest posbible
depth, richness, and volume of tone, combined with a rare brilli.ncy, clearness, and perfect
evenness throughout the entire scale, and above all, a surprising duration of sound the pure
and sympathetic quality of which never changes under the mnst delicate or the most' nowerful 1
touch, and who declare that they prefer them above all others for their own use, whenever
accessible. One of the consequences of the exhibition of their pianos in London, as above
stated, 1? the adoption of their system of manufacture by many of the European makers
who announce as a recommendation of their own instruments, "That they now make Pianos
upon the same plan as the celebrated Steinway & Sons, of New York." The eminent
European artists, Alfrkd Jaell, Uans Von Bllow, and Gustave fcATTEK, also testify to the
spendid qualities of the Steinway pianos. The foreign press, The London Times, The London
Illmtrated JVews, The Pans Constitutionel, The Press JJu/itcale, and other papers in Great
*'';?"ose to erect a National Conceit Hall and a
Conservatory of Masic, which, carried out in the right spirit, will prove a boon to the community
at large, and will refiect honor upon their enterprise, zeal and judgment. And It
will be a crowning evidence of their high-toned liberality, and honorable to the eountry, and
will carry down the name of Steinway with the progress of musical art and manufacture in
America.—A>?o York Tribune.

THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC FOR 1806.
THE UNION PARTY IN 1865.
RESOLUTIONS OF THE UNION STATE CONVENTIONS ON RECONSTRUCTION AND
IMPARTIAL SUFFRAGE.
We give below the resolutions of the Union
State Conventions, held since the accession to
the Presidency of Andrew Johnson, on the subject
of Reconstruction and Impartial Suffrafce.
It will be seen that they agree in indorsing the
Administration of President Johnson, and in
demanding that the reconstruction of the Rebel
States bo upon such terms as will give unquestionable
assurance of the peace and security of
the loyal people of the Rebel States, also of the
peace and prosperity of the Federal Union.
Massachusetts, A'ermont, Maine, New York,
Minnesota, Iowa, declare, some more directly,
others more indirectly, in favor of impartial
; suffrage, without distinction of race New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, California,
Colorado, are silent on this subject ; and
Nevada declares against it.
MASSACnrSETTS.
liesolved. That the entire pacification of the
country and the restoration of order are objects
of the first importance, and also which 'require
the exercise of the most deliberate and cautious
wisdom, in order that there may be no necessity
of retracing our steps ; and we agree with the
Republicans of Pennsylvania, who, in their recent
State Convention, expressed the conviction
that the people lately in rebellion cannot be
safely intrusted with the political rights which
they forfeited by their treason until they have
proved their acceptance of the results of the war
by incorporating into their constitutions provisions
securing to all men within their borders
the inalienable right to liberty and the pursuit
of happiness ; and we call upon Congress, before
whom must speedily come the whole question of
reconstructing the Southern community, to see
to it that the loyal people, white and black, shall
have the most perfect guarantees for their safety
before any final steps are taken toward restoring
the revolted people of the South to their forfeited
rights.
Resolved, That so long as any important political
questions growing out of the war remain
vnadjusted, no partof the powers of the Government
can be safely committed to any political
party composed of Southern men who were lately
in rebellion and arms, or of the Northern men,
who. In a National Convention only a year ago,
declared that after four years of failure to restore
the Union by the experiment of war, daring
which, under the pretence of military necessity,
the war power had been placed higher than the
Constitution ; the Constitution itself bad been
and resisted : and that now seeks to reinstate
itself in power by the nomination of soldiers and
provost-marshals for office, and by passing resolutions
of confidence in a Republican administration.
Remlred, That we have no theories to promulgate
in relation to the right of suffrage ; but,
as a practical question, we declare that, so long
as the grand issues of the day are the maintenance
of the Government, the complete integi-ity
of the Union, the preservation of the National
credit and National faith, and the extirpation of
Slavery, no test can be made or encouraged
which will admit to the elective franchise rebel
soldiers and traitorous politicians, and at the
same time exclude the loyal men who have
borne arms and shed their blood in the nation's
defense, and whose votes may be indispensable
hereafter, as President Lincoln said in his letter
to Gov. Hahn, " to keep the jewel Liberty in the
family of Freedom." Such tests cannot stand
the scrutiny of the loyal American people incorporated
into the new constitutions of the Southern
States; Congress should rectify the abuse
and maintain the public faith toward the freedmen,
while it provides for the peace, solvency,
and security of the country.
liesolred. That it is the duty of the Government
to hold States under provisional government
where the character of the people is found
to be an unsafe depository of free Republican
government.
Be.solred, That, in reorganizing the rebellious
States, it is the right and duty of the Government
to demand the ratification of the Constitutional
Amendment abolishing Slavery, and the
removal of all disabilities on account of color,
and to secure to all perfect equality.
Rewlced, That the Constitution of the United
States should be amended so as to secure equality
and uniformity of the rights of representation of
States in Congress.
Re.to/red, That the Emancipation Proclamation
of President Lincoln, the enlistment of over
lOO^OOO colored troops, the good faith of the
colored race amidst treason, and their being
paid like whites and placed in the most dangerous
places, have pledged the National honor
that these people shall have, in fact as well as
in name, conferred upon them all the political
right' of freedmen, and that the people of the
United States will redeem this pledge.

Resolred, That while we are anxious for an
early reconstruction of fraternal relations with
the insurgent St^ates, we demand that such reconstruction
shall be at such time and upon such
terms as will give unquestionable assurance of
the peace and security, not only of the loyal
people of the rebel States, but also of the peace
and prosperity of the Federal Union.
Heaolvecl, That the experience of the last four
years shows the absolute necessity, in all our
political action, of keeping steadily in view the

precautions as may be necessary to the future
safety, and the lasting and perpetual peace of the
nation.
Reiolred, That the spirit of our institutions
requires that the measure of a man's political
rights shall be neither his religion, his birthplace,
his race, hiscolor, nor any merely physical
characteristics ; and that it would be subversive
of both the form and spirit of our institutions to
permit any portion of our population to remain
in a degraded and abject caste, taxed to support,
and compelled to obey a Government in which
they have no voice, and whose whole macliinery
may be directed to their destruction.
Resolve^l, That the administration of the general
Government during the past four years, in
the hands of the late lamented President, Abraham
Lincoln, and in the hands of the present
executive, Andrew Johnson, in all their efforts
to preserve the Union and the liberties of the
country, meets with our hearty approval and
concurrence.
Hexolierl. That our Senators and Hcprescntatives
in Congress be requested to use their influence
to secure an amendment to the Constitution
of the United States, whereby the basis of representation
be established upon the aggregate
number of legal voters, instead of upon the number
of population.
wincoNsiv.
Resolved, That while we welcome the cessation
of war in the Southern States, we do not
close our eyes to the fact that a large portion of
the whole population are fresh from acts of hostility
toward the Government and toward its
institutions, are still unsettled in opinion, and
many of them imreconciled to the results of the
contest in which, for more than four years, they
have been engaged. We rejoice to be assured
that the Government will not withdraw from
these States the strong arm of military power
until it has full and satisfactory evidence of such
a spirit of true and permanent loyalty as to
make them safe participants in the right of selfgovernment,
insure obedience to the Constitution
and laws, acquiescence in the emancipation of
the slaves, and protection to the freedmen in the
right to enjoy the fruits of their labor, as well as

Resolved, That, to the end that the consequence
of treason may be made so appalling that
never again shall it be inaugurated upon United
States soil, we recommend the permanent disfranchisement
of all prominent leaders of the
rebellion, civil and military; and that the late
President of the so-called Confederate States of I

barbarity, be brought to the speediest trial and

swiftest execution, regardless of the habiliments
under the immunities of which he sought, in the !

should be based upon loyalty to the Constitution

THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC FOR 1866.
PRESIDENT IIXCOLN'S
SECOND INAUGMAL ADDRESS.
PELtOW-ConvTRTJfEK :' At this second appearing
to take the oath of the Presidential oflice,
there is less occasion for an extended address
than there was at the first. Then a statement,
somewhat in detail, of a course to be pursued
seemed very fitting and proper. Now, at the
expiration of four years, during which public
declarations have been constantly called forth
on every point and phase of the great contest
which still absorbs the attention and engrosses
the energies of the nation, little that is new could
be presented.
The progress of our arms, upon which all else
chiefly depends, is as well known to the public
as to myself, and it is, I trust, reasonably satisfactory
and encouragingto all. ATith high hope
for the future, no prediction with regardto it is
ventured.
On the ccca?ion corresponding to this, four
years ago, all thoughts were anxiously directed

sought to avcid it. 'While the inaugural address

These slaves constituted a peculiar and powerful

interest. All knew that this interest
was
somehow the cause of the war To strengthen,
perpetuate, and extend this interest, was ths
object for which the insurgents would rend the
Union even by war, while the Government
claimed no right to do more than to restrict the
territorial enlargement of it.
Neither party expected for the war the magnitude
or the duration which it has already attained.
Neither anticipated that the cause of
the conflict might cease with, or even before the
conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an
easier triumph, and a result less fundamental
and astounding.
Both read the same Eiblc, and pray to the
same God ;
and each invokes his aid against the
other. It may seem strange that any men should
dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing
their bread from the sweat of other men's faces ;
but let us judge not, thatwe be not judged. The
prayers of both could not be answered. That of
neither has been answered fully. The Almighty
has his own purposes. "Woe unto the world
becatise of offences, for it must needs be that
offences come ; but woe to that man by whom the
offence ccmefh." If we shallsuppoEe thatAmerican
slavery is one of these offences, which, in
the provid->nce of God, must needs come, but
which, having continued through his appointed
time, he now wills to remove, and (hat ho
gives to both North and South (his terrible war

With malice toward none, with charity to all,
with firmness in the right, as God giv^ us to see
the right, let us strive en to finish the work we
are in ; to bind v.p the nation's wounds ;
to care
for him who shall have borne the battle, and for
his widow and his orphans ; to do all which may
achieve and cherish a just and a lasting peace
among ourselves and with all nations.
PRESIDENT JOHNSON ON_THE NEGRO QUESTION.
From, the Message of Deceiriber 4, ISO."}.
The relations of the general Government toward
the four millions of inhabitants whom the
war has called into freedom, have engaged my
most serious consideration. On the propriety of
attempting to make thefreedmen electors by the
proclamation of the Executive, I took, for my
counsel, the Constitution itself, the interpretation
of that instrument by its authors and their
cotemporaries, and recent legislation by Congress.
When, at the first movement toward indcpendeice,
the Congress of the United States
instructed the several States to institute governments
of their own, they left each State to decide
for itself the conditions" for the enjoyment of the
elective franchise. During the period of the
Confederacy, there continued to exist a very
great diversity in the qualifications of electors
in the several States ; and even within a State a
distinction of qualiOcations prevailed with regard
to the officers who were to be chosen. The
Constitution of the United States recognizes these
diversities when it enjoins that, in the choice of
Members of the House of Representatives cf the
United States, "the electors in each State shall
have the qualifications reqnisite for the t lectors
of the most numerous branch of the Stite Legislature."
After the formation of the Constitution,
it remained, as before, the uniforra usage for
each State to enlarge the body of its electors according
to its own judgment; and, under this
system, one State after another hrx proceeded
to increase the number of itr, cJcctcn;. ;;ntil now

50 THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC FOR 1806.
universal suffrage, or something very near it, is
the general rule. Po fixed was this reservation
of power in the habits of the people, and so unquestioned
has been the interpretation of the
Constitution, that, during the civil war, the late
President never harbored the purpose—certainly
never avowed the purpose—of disregarding
it ; and in the acts of Congress during that period,
nothing can be found which, during the continuance
of hostilities, much less after their close,
would have sanctioned any departure, by the
Executive, from a policy which has so uniformly
obtained. Moreover, a concession of the elective
franchise to the freedmen, by act of the President
of the United States, must have been extended
to all colored men, wherever found, and so must
have established a change of suffrage in the
Northern, Middle, and AVestem States, not less
than in the Southern and South-western. Such
an act would have created a new class of vbters,
and would have been an assumption of power by
the I'resident which nothing in the Constitution
or laws of the United States would have warranted.
On the other hand, every danger of conflict is
avoided when the settlement of the question is
referred to the several States. They can, each
for itself, decide on the measure ; and whether it
is to be adopted at once and absolutely, or introduced
gradually and with conditions. In my
judgment, the freedmen, if they show patience
and manly virtues, will sooner obtain a participation
in the elective franchise through the States
than through the general Government, even if it
had power to intervene. AVhen the tumult of
emotions that have been raised by the suddenness
of the social change shall have subsided, it
may prove that they will receive the kindliest
usage from some of those on whom they have
heretofore most closely depended.
But while I have nodoubt that now, after the
close of the war, it is not competent for the General
Govejnment to extend the elective franchise
in the several States, it is equally clear that good
faith requires the security of the freedmen in
their liberty and their property, their right to
labor, and their right to claim the just return of
their labor. I cannot too strongly urge a dispassionate
treatment of this subject, which should
be carefully kept aloof from all party strife. AYe
must equally avoid hasty assumptions of any
natural impossibility for the two races to live
by side, in a state of mutual benefit and
good will. The experiment involves us in no
inconsistency, let us, then, go and make that
experiment in good faith, and not be too ea?ily
disheartened. The country is in need of labor,
and the freedmen are in need of employment,
culture, and protection. While their right of
voluntary migration and expatriation is not to
be questioned, I would not advise their forced
removal and colonization. Let us rather encourage
them to honorable and useful industry,
where it may be beneficial to tberasclves and to
the country ; and, instead of hasty anticipations
of the certainty of failure, let there be nothing
wanting to the fair trial of the experiment. The
change in their condition is the substitution of
labor by contract for the status of Slavery. The
freedman cannot fairly be accused of unwillingness
to work, so long as a doubt remains about
his freedom of choice in bis pursuits, and the
certainty of his recovering his stipulated wages.
In this the interests of the employer and t)ie
employed coincide. The employer desires in
his workmen spirit and alacrity, and these can be
permanently secured in no other vi ay. And if
one ought to be able to enforce the contract, so
ought the other. The public interest will be
best promoted if the several States will provide
adequate protection and remedies for the freedmen.
UntU this is in some way accomplished,
there is no chance for the advantageous use of
their labor ; and the blame of ill-success will j.ot
rest on them.
I know that sincere philanthropy is earnest
for the immediate realization of its remotest
aims ; but time is always an element in reform.
It is one of the greatest acts on record to have
brought four millions of people into freedom.
The career of free industry must be fairly opened
to them ; and then their future prosperit.v and
condition must, after all, rest mainly on themselves.
If they fail, and bo perish awa.v, let us
be careful that the failure shall not be attributable
to any denial of justice. In all that relates
to the destiny of the freedmen, we need not be
too anxious to read the future ; many incidents
which, from a speculative point of view, might
raise alarm, will quietly settle themselves.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
Article V. of the Constitution of the United
States clearly and distinctly sets forth the mode
and manner" in which that instrument may be
amended, as follows
" The Congress, whenever two-thirds of both
Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose
amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application
of the Legislatures of two-thirds of the
several States, shall call a convention for pro-
posing amendments, which in either case, shall
be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of
|
this Constitution, when ratified by the Legisla-
1
tures of three-fourths of the several States, or by
conventions in three-foiirths thereof, as the one
or the other mode of ratification may be proposed
by the Congress."
In accordance with this article
of the Consti-
I
tution, the following resolution was proposed in
the Senate, on February 1, 1S04:
Sesolvedy By the Senate and House of Representatives

There has been a considerable variety of
opinion as to what constitutes the three-fourths
majority of the States required to make the
Amendment the law of the land. Prominent
members of Congress are known to hold the
opinion that the Rebel States, by their rebellion,
have taken themselves out of the Union, and
that they have forfeited their rights as States.
Others, while not indorsing the State suicide
theory, deny to some or all of the bodies which
have acted as Legislatures of the Rebel States
the character of lawful Legislatures.
If both the late Rebel States and their I.eeislatures
are fully recognized, the number
of States was, in December, 186.5, .
86, and
the requisite three-fourths majority 27. 1 lis
number was, therefore, reached when i;:eorgi.i

The issue, at the election held in Kcntncliy,
1865, for State Treasurer, members of Congress,
and members of the State Legislature, was between
those favoring the ratification of the
Constitutional Amendment abolishing Slavery,
and those opposing the ratification. Unionists,
therefore, means the friends, and Conservatives
the opponents of the Amendment.

The Great New England Remedy
DR. J.W.POLAND'SWHITE PINE COMPOUND
" It was early In the fpring of 1S55 that this compound was originated. A member of my
family was ainicted with an irritation of the throat, attrnded with a disagreeable cough. I had
for some months previous thought that a preparation having for its basis the inside bark of white
pine, might be so compounded as to be very useful in cases of the throat and lungs. To test the
value of it in the case alluded to, I compounded a small quantity of the medicine that I had been
planning, and gave it in teaspoonful doses. The result was e.\ceedingly gratifying. Within two
days the irritation of the throat was removed, the cough subsided, and a speedy cure was elTected.
Soon after this, I sent some to a lady in Londonderry, N. H., who had been suffering for some
weeks from a bad cough, occasioned by a sudden cold, and liad raised mucous streaked with
blood. She soon found relief, and sent for more. She took about ten ounces of it, and got well.
J. B. Clarke, Esq., editor of the Manchester Daily Mirror, made a trial of the same preparation
5n the case of a severe cold, and was cured immediately. He was so highly pleased with the results,
and so confident of success attending its sale if placed before the public, that he finally
persuaded me to give it a name and send it abroad to benefit the suffering. In November, It- 55,
first advertised it, under the name of AVhite Pine Compound. In two years from that time there
had been wholesaled in Manchester alone (me Jntndred doUara^ worih, where it took the lead of
all the cough remedies in the market, and it still maintains that position. There is good reason for
all this : it is very soothing and healing; in its nature, is warming to the stomach, and pleasant
withal to the taste, and is exceedingly cheap.
"As a remedy for kidney complaints, the \^'hite Pine Compound stands unrivaled. It was not
originated for that purpose ; but a person, in using it for a cough was not only cured of the cough,
but was also cured of a kidney difficulty of ten years' standing. Since that accidental discovery
many thousands have used it for the same complaint, and have been completely cured."
The above was written by Dr. Poland in 1860. Since then, as in Manchester, the AVhite Pine
Compound has taken the lead of all Cough remedies, as well as preparations for the cure of Kidney
difficulties, in every city, town, village, and hamlet throughout the New England States.
The past year has given great opportunity to test the virtue of the White Pine Coivpovnd.
It has been an unusual time for Colds and Coughs, and very large quantities of the White Pine
Compnunil have been sold, and used with the happiest effects. It speaks well for the Medicine,
and the people where it is prepared are high in its praise.
One bottle of this Compound is generally sufficient to remove a bad cough, and frequently I
have known persons to have a cold entirely removed in two days, by using less than half a bottle.
From one to two teaspoonfuls is a large dose. I sometimes put a little white sugar and hot water
with it, when taken on going to bed.
The limits to which I purposely confine myself in this circular, will not allow of that full expression
which I would like to give in favor of the White Pine Compound. It is universally admired
by all who use it^—It has attained to such a popularity among those whose opinion is valu-
will have patience to read ; so I will stop, by merely recommending to all who need a cough or i
kidney remedy to test the virtues of the White Pine CoMPOtTND.

Ke V. J. K. Chase, :— of Rumney, N. H., writes " I have for years regarded your White Pine
Compound as an invaluable remedy. I can truly say that I regard it as even more efl'icacious
and valuable than ever. I have just taken the Compound for a cold, and it works chanrungly."
Hon. :— P. H. S-v^eetser. of South Reading, writes " Having long knomi something of the
valuable medicinal properties of the AVhite Pine, I was prepared, on seeing an advertisement of
your White Pine Compound, to give the medicine a trial. It has been used by members of my
family for several years, for colds and coughs, and in some cases of serious kidney difficulties,
with excellent results. Several of our friends have also received much benefit from the Compound.
We intend to keep it always on hand."
Rev. H. D. Hodge, of West Randolph, Tt., who is a practicing physician, as well as
preacher, in a letter to Dr. P., dated May 21, 1863, says :— " I find it an excellent medicine in kidney
disease."
From a Boston Pastor.—Boston, .Tan. 16, 1862.—Rev. J. W. Poland, M. li.—Dear Sir :
Tour WTiite Pine Compound has been used in my own family, and I know of others who have used it,
always with a good effect, and I feel justified, and it is with pleasure that I fay that I regard it
(unlike most preparations of the day) as wholly deserving of the entire confidence of the public, i
Not only do I consider it a safe but an eflScient remedy for all diseases of the throat.

TESTIMONIALS— Contimied.

From James J. Hoyt.—Bradford, N. H., Sept., I860.—Dr. Poland: In the fall of 1857,
took a very violent cold, which brought on a very severe cough, pain in side and lungs, and laising
blood. I was also very badly afflicted with that troublesi^me disease—the Ai((/;ey Lumplaint.
For the three years past I have been very much troubled with my throat and lungs,
choking up and raising an immense eight, with a bad cough after raising blood ; I felt tLat my
time here must be short unless I soon got relief. This spring I was induced to try your tt'i'ite
Pine Compound, though my faith in it was small. But to my astonishment, before I had taken
two bottles, my cough was better, the kidney trouble also, and I could rest nights without choking
up and raising so much. I have taken nearly three bottles, and am feeling like a v. ell man.
I would add that my father's family is inclined to consumption—my father, mother, and two
sisters having died of it.
Letter from Rev. L. C. Stevens, Pastor of Baptist Chvrch, Goffntmcn Center, jY. IT.
—Dr. J W. Poland,—J/y Dear Sir : You asked me what I think of your White Pine Compound.
I never before put pen to paper to tell any man what I thought of a patent medicine. My father,
a physician of the old school, early led me to serious suspicions of all nostrums of whatever kind,
not bearing the stamp of that fraternity. But these suspicions I have parted with by degrees, as I
have carefully acquainted myself with the leading principles of Hydropathy, Homoeopathy,
Thompsonianism, Electrici=m, and other systems which have claimed public favor withiu the last
twenty-five years, so that 1 feel at liberty on this ground to speak my convictions.
Then, the s.\Tnpathy which I feel for you, as a former Baptist pastor—obliged to relinquish
the ministry merely on account of ill health, but still cherishing all the ardor of your early years
for this blessed work, and laboring to your utmost, in other ways, to proclaim the glorious Gospel—inclined
me, as a matter of duty, to comply with your request.
In 1853 I became acquainted with Deacon Holmes Boardman, of Maine, brother of the late
George Dana Bnaidman, formerly missionary in Burmah, and from him, for the first time, learned
the wonderful medicinal qualities of white pine bark. He had, a few years before, been brought
to the borders of the grave by what the best of physicians pronounced pulmonary consumption,
and was given up to die, but was nevertheless entirely cured by a preparation made by his own
hands from this bark. Since that time, until I became acquainted with your article, I have been
surprised that no nhilosophical mind was found to undertake a cough preparation from white
pine.
As soon as your article was brought to my notice, it therefore secured my attention ; and I
have not failed to acquaint myself with a sutflcient number of facts to produce a settled judgment
as to its value. Some of my own family have tried it with signal benefit. I believe it one of the
best cough medicines ever prepared. Besides its value as a Cough Medicine, I have good reason
to believe it to be all it claims as a remedy for kidney diseases and diabetes.
Yours truly, L. C. STEM5NS.
_
[Several other clergymen and physicians have also written to Dr. P., highly approving of his
White Pine Compound.]
From Elery B. Cahoon.—Brewster, Mass., March 19, 1863 —Dr. Poland : I feel it my
duty to inform you of the very great benefits which I have received from the use of your White
Pine Compound. In August, 1861, I took a very severe cold, which continued to afflict me, increasing
in severity, attended with a very hard cough, night sweats, and some bleeding, probably
from the throat. Through the fall and winter my cough was very distressing, reducing my flesh
and strength, and rendering me unfit for labor. I tried medicines of various kinds, but none of
them, however valuable, gave me any relief. In March, 1862, as you may remember, I wrote to
you, stating my difficulties and asking advice. You sent me some of the White Pine Compound.
I commenced taking it, and immediately began to amend. At the time of writing to you my
weight was only 135 pounds. In five weeks I was out in active labor, and in a few months gained
up to ICO pounds. I knoir it was the White Pine Compound which did all this for me. I soon
began to have persons apply to me for the medicine, and, as you know, I ordered it for sale. In
eight months, though without making much exertion, I disposed of 540 bottles of the Compiouiui
here on the Cape.
I would add that several persons of my acquaintance, whose condition was as hopeless as my
own, have been cured by the White Pine Compound.
From Boston 'Watchman and Reflector.—The White Pine Compound, advertised
at length in our columns, is not only, as to its name, inviting, but it is a highly approved medicine.
Dr. J. W. Poland, the inventor, has the confidence of the many who know him, a confidence
which he enjoyed while laboring usefully many years as a Baptist minister. His experience
as a sufferer led him to make experiments which issued in his medical discovery.
Shorild yori thinkfavorably of this medicine, he careful, when purchasinff, that it is tlee
WHITE PINE COMPOUND that is offered you, as ice know that other j>reparations have
been jMthned offfor it by unjjrincipled dealers.

The object of the American Emigrant Company is to meet the urgent and increasing necessity
which is felt for the organiiation and direction of the labor of the immense multitudes of
immigrants arriving in this country ; and for this purpose arrangements of the most complete
and effective character have been made for the distribution of those persons—South as well as
West—immediately on their landing here. The mode of operation is tlie following:—Agencies
have been estabhshed in Liverpool, Gothenburg, Hamburg, and Havre, through which information
on all American subjects of interest to the emigrant is circulated by means of sub-agencies
employed throughout Great Britain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Austria, Prussia, Germany,
Belgium, Switzerland, and France'. Employment in advance is provided for workinpmen of
every nationality and of every kind of employment, and emigrants coming under the auspices
of the Company are in all cases directed to the localities where their servioas are most required
and are best paid.
In addition to this, accurate and reliable information is afforded to all emigrating from
Europe with the view of settling upon land, and by this means they are instructed carefully and
fully as to the condition and circumstances of any special place they may desire to settle in,
and "fullinformation to guide them in the judicious choice of a locality for their residence Is
placed at tlieir disposal. The value of such an agency in Europe, commanding— as the American
Emigrant Company does—the respect and confidence of the people coming from Europe to
Americ.i, and its power to stimulate and direct the flow of emigration, will be manifest. A central
office is located at New York, with branch offices in the principal cities of the West and
South. By me:(n3 cf this thoroughl.v organized and widely ramified system of acencies through
all sections of the United States, the following e-^ds are gained: 1. Information is afforded
gratuitously to every emigrant arriving in New York or Boston, as to the most desirable locality.
South, West, or East, for him to select, according to his special object. 2. Employment is secured
In the Southern and AVestern States, in advance, for emigrants arriving, and in many
cases the means of traveling to reach it are supplitd. 3. Workmen—mechanical, mining, and
agricultural—are directly imported from Europe, under the provision of the law of July 4, 1864,
and any Individual, any special industry, or any locality, can be promptly supplied with labor.
4. The agents of the Company, allthroujhtheinterior of the country, receive and aid immigrants
as they are despatched from the seaboard, without any charge whatever to them.
The Company has already agencies established in Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago,
Milwaukee, ?t. Louis, Des Moines, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and is engaged in organizing
agencies in Memphis, Nashville, Richmond, Raleigh, Wilmington, Charleston, and New Orleans.
The American Emigrant Company possesses an abund-uit capital and commands the conand
support of the best men of the cornmunity. In referring to this Corporation, the
Chamber of Commerce of the State of New Y'ork, in its celebrated report on immigration,
adopted a few months since, used this language
"Under the sanciion of this law a Society before established, now known as the American
'
Emigrant Company,' has put in operation the necessary measures for bringing to this country
the skilled and other labor of England and the continent. Asking public confidence, it refers
to some of our first citizens in support of its claim. Your Committee are of opinion that it has
undertaken a most praiseworthy and important work, iuaugurating a system of supply well cal
culated to meet a pressing and vital want."
The Company has been in active operation for several months, and is now weekly receiving
and distributing a lar?e number of emigrants. Meeting the necessities of the present crisis, it
appeals to the sympathy and support of all desiring the restoration of the South to prosperity,
the development of the mighty resources of the West, and the general industrial welfare of the
nation. Letters should be addressed to

General Ag-ent for Emigration, No. 3 Bowling: Green, New York.

This Company are now developing their mines, and the ores which are
reached in one of them, the Swift, prove unexpectedly rich. The Company is
free from debt and own 6,000 Shares of workiug Capital Stock,
a portion of which is now offered at twenty cents on the dollar, or $20
per share, par value, $100 a share. The stock will be sold from time to time
during the year 18G6, as the wants of the Company may require ;
and the price
per share will be advanced as the work of developing progresses. Probably no
mining property in Nevada promises a better return for investments than the
stock of this Company. For further information address

THS COTTAGS FUXSa-TISJG-FRESS.
I3 the best cheap printing-piess ever introduced to public notice.
Simple, durable, and efficient, occupj-ing but little space, it is
adapted to meet the wants of business men and others, who, for the
sake of economy, necessity, or convenience, wish to do their own
1
printing, and on their own premises. It enables them, without
delay, and at a small expense, to print hand-bills, circulars, cards,
bill-heads, etc., and in a style equal to that of most country printing-oE5ces.
Although designed, and will be found useful, for all
|
business and professional men, yet to country merchants and drug-
the cheapest method of advertising and increasing one's business,
j
With each press we furnish, if desired, the necessaiy type, ink, etc.,
for the execution of any kinds of printing.
No more acceptable present can be made to youth than one of these printing-offices. It combines
lucrative employment with amusement and instruction. It learns one to compose, to spell,
and to punctuate. There is no better school for the young man than the printing-onice—such a
thing as an illiterate printer being unknown ; and for the purpose of learning the trade, as an
employment for life, the possession of one of our small printing-offices renders a regular apprenticeship
unnecessary.
Printed instructions for setting tj^pe and managing the press accompany each office. "When
desired, the offices will be arranged for printing in Spanish, French, German, and other foreign
languages. Circular sent free. Specimen gheets of type, cuts, etc., 10 cents.

THE
lON^A AND ISEAELLA
So greatly surpass all others in excellence and value for Garden and Vineyard
as to be able to place American Grape Culture on a new and sure basis.
THESE SEEDLINGS were produced by myself through a preparatory process
best calculated both to develop the excellence of trvit and to secure the
strongest and most healthful constitution of stock.
THE RESULT has been a high degree of improvement of all the good qualities
of our native kinds in the ISRAELLA, with a great increase of hardy, enduring
character of vine, and extreme EARLINESS.
IN CASE OF THE lONA the change of character is so radical as more
NEARLY to RESEMBLE THE ORIGINATION OF A NEW SPECIES.
In refinement and excellence
of flavor it equals the best foreign kinds, and surpasses them all in animating
and exhilarating spirit, while in constancy and abundance of production it
is unequaled among our most hardy native varieties.
It ripens very early—before
Concord—and has been proved by extensive trial to be more hardy.
It
has been extensively disseminated, and the testimonials in regard to it are
of the same import from the North and South, and from the Atlantic coast to far
beyond the Mississippi.West. It received the award of the " GREELEY PRIZE
OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS."
At all of the exhibitions it has received commendations that could be called
forth by no other grape, and this, with the Israella, must, in a great measure, supersede
all other kinds, as soon as the plants can be produced in sufficient number
to meet the demand.
The lONA, in open air, gives better fruit than the Black Hamburg under
glass ; and it is scarcely equaled in beauty and excellence by the famous Grizzly
Frontignan, which it most nearly resembles.
" We have a weakness for the flavor oi the Foreign Grape, but should hesitate
now whether to prefer a Muscat of Alexandria or lONA. There need be but one
opinion as to this being the best grape ever known here."— Gardener's Monthly.
See to same purport in Prize Essay by the Hon. Judge Denniston, also in American
Agriculturist, Nev York Tribune, and all reports of societies and exhibitions
For a full account of these new kinds, send two-cent stamp for a pamphlet, with
engravings, entitled Our Native '
Grapes," also " Present and Future of Vine-
Culture in America," with price lists and " Club Propositions" for obtaining these
and other vines at wholesale prices.
For a thorough Practical Treatise, send Fifty Cents for "Manual of the Vine,"
illustrated with about one hundred and fifty engravings, accurately drawn.
My vines, o these varieties, propagated from the original stock, are of unequaled
quality, and are offered at very low prices, quality considered. See Price
List revised for spring. q. -yj^^ GRANT

THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC FOR 1867.
Table of Stxtyone Briglit Stars.
To ascertain when any star or constellation found in the following Table will be on the
meridian, adil the numbers opposite in the left-hand column of figures to the time of " Sidereal
Noon " found in the calendar papas. For the rising of a star, /wb/ract the number opposite in
the right-hand column of figures from its meridian passage. For the setting of a star, add the
same number to its meridian passage. Those marked ( ) revolve in a circle of perpetual apparition,
and do not rise nor set north of the latitude of New York (40' 42' 40"), for which latitude
the semi-diurnal arcs are calculated. The civil day begins at the preceding midnight, and consequently
24 hours after midnight, or 12 hours from noon, is morning of the succeeding day ; and
24 hours to S6 hours from noon is evening of the next day. The table is arranged in the order
of culmination.

A " Professor " was lately exhibiting at Berlin
a troop of " Trained Fleas," tliat draw miniature
carriages and perform various other exploits of a
similar character. When exhibiting his tiny performers
before the King, the " Professor was
suddenly seen to exhibit signs of great consternation
"^VTiat is the matter, Herr Professor ?
inquired lUs Majesty, on seeing that the performance
had come to a stand-still. Sire," replied
the " Professor," " I perceive that one of ray very
best performers, the Great Napoleon, has got
loose and disappeared." " Let search be made at
once for the Great Napoleon," replied tl^e King,
good-humoredly. " Ladies and gentlemen, let the
Herr Professor have your best help in repaptuxing
the Great Napoleon. In what direction, Ilerr
Professor, do you imagine the runaway to have

" returned that personage, I " suspect the
Great Napoleon to have secreted himself about
the person of Her Serene Highness, the Princess
p • The " Highness " thus named, feeling
anything but " Serene " at the thought of affordinn-
quarters to such an intruder, made a hasty
retreat to her own apartments, whence, after a
brief retirement with her cainerUte, she smilingly
returned to the royal presence, bringing some
object, held delicately between her thumb and
finder which she cautiously made over to the Professor
" Alas ! Sire," exclaimed the latter, after
a moment's glance at what he thought was his discovered
treasure, " this is a wildflea and not t/ie
Great NapoUon I " And the exhibition, was
thus brought to an Ignominious conclusion.

Grand, Square, and Upright
TESTIMONIALS FROM THE MOST DISTINGUISHED ARTISTS.
New York, December, 1864.
The Piano-fortes—Grand, Square, and Upright—manufactured by Messrs. Steinwat & Sons,
have established for themselves so world-wide a reputation that it is hardly possible for us to add
anything to their just fame.
Having thoroughly tested and tried these instruments personally for years, both in public and
private, it becomes our pleasant duty to express our candid opinion regarding their unquestioned
superiority over any other Piano known to us.
Among the chief points of their uniform excellence are : Greatest possible depth, riehnens,
and volume of tone, combined with a rare brilliancy, clearness, and perfect evenness
throughout the entire scale, and, above all, a surprising duration of sound, the pure and,
sympathetic quality of tcldchnerer changes under the inost delicate or powerful touch.
This peculiarity is found exclusively in the " Steinwat " Piano ; and, together "with the matchless
precision, elasticity, and promptness of action always characterizing these instruments, as
well as their unequaled durability under the severest trials, is truly surprising, and claims at
once the admiration of every artist. We therefore consider the "STr.iNWAY" Pianos in all
respects the best instruments made in this country or in Europe, tuse thein solely and exclusicely
ourselves in public or private, and. recommend them invariably to our friends and
the public.
We have at differeif times expressed our opinion regarding the Pianos of various makers, but
freely and unhesitattngly pronounce Messrs. Steinwat & Sons' Pianos superior to them all.

Letter of Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER.
Brookltn, January 26, 1861.
MESSR.S. Steinwat :—I regard him as a benefactor who builds a good Piano, and I am your
beneficiary on that account. Having had one of your instruments for several years, I can bear
witness to its admirable qualities in every respect. I am more than satisfied, and if I had to buy
another I should certainly go to your rooms again. It is a pleasure to praise your work.
Henrt Ward Beechkr.
From.
" A DISCOURSE ON PIANOS," by Rev. HENRT WARD BEECHER.
{New Yo7-k. Independent, Dec. 1, 1865.)
Upon a lucky day a Steinwat Piano stood in our parlor. For power, fullness, richness, and
evenness of tone, it was admirable ; nor do we believe we could better our choice. In our Summer
home it stands yet, a mu.vcal angel ; and our wish is, that the day may come when every
working man in America may have a good " Steinwat Piano."

(FROM THE TRIBUNE./
A NEW PIANO
AN IMPORTANT INVENTION AND IMPROVEMENT IN
UPRIGHT PIANO-FORTES.
The upright piano, doubtless the handsomest, as it promises to be the favorite, of its class, has
very recently undergone so mal-ked an improvement in the science of its manufacture as to be in
many respects a new instrument. It is well understood from the testimony of leading instrumentalists
in the Old World that the square and grand pianos made in this country are even superior
in all the requirements of art to the most celebrated manufacture of the Old World ; but in
the construction of the upright pianos the American maker has heretofore labored under the same
difficulties as have beset the European. Many costly experiments have been tried and much ingenious
study given to the task of perfecting an instrument which. If all its capacities were in
harmony with its convenience, compactness, and beauty of form, ought to be more desirable than
any other to a large number of households and an extensive class of performers. The upright
piano made hitherto wanted power, full tone, and an even register. The action was not only
complicated, cramped, and defective, but the instrument was constantly liable to get out of ord.x,
while from these and a variety of causes there was no certainty of keeping it in tune.
In the new upright pianos, just set up by the Messrs. Steinway & Sons, these defects are, without
exception, admirably overcome. Hundreds of players have already tested the accuracy and
brilliancy of I he instrument ; and its perfection, now arrived at after much expense and many
years of experiment, brings to the view of the musical world an event of infinite importance to
their art. The invention by which this fine result has been achieved belongs solely to the eminent
firm we have named. Beyond the praise due them for a remarkable success of enterprise,
they deserve public gratulation for a discovery which, great or small, is likely to benefit the general
community of musicians as much as any improvement of late years effected in the making
of pianos. The new uprights are known as " The Patent Resonator," and " Double Iron Frame,"
and were patented June 5th of this year. From a description of the general features of the instrument,
musicians will be able to understand its points of superiority.
The instrument is provided, in addition to the usual iron frame sustaining the strings in the
front of the sound-board, with an iron brace frame in therear of it, Instead of constructing the
latter portion of the instrument, as heretofore, of heavy pieces of timber. Both the front and
rear iron frames are cast together in one solid pieee, by this means Imparting a solidity of construction
and stability of tune not paralleled in all respects in piano-forte manufacture. The
sound-board is supported in its position between the two frames by a simple apparatus which regulates
its tension, so that the greatest possible degree of vibration and sound-producing capacity
is obtained, and regulated to the nicest desirable point.
In every upright piano previously manufactured, the action stood upon posts, the lower ends
of which rested upon the keys, rendering the mechanism complicated and liable to get out of order.
In the new patent overstrung upright pianos of Steinway & Sons, the action works directly upon,
flj/r^/rowi ^/t6X'e//«, in the same manner as in their square and grand pianos, and the touch is
just as light, agreeable and prompt.
Another highly important and delightful improvement is their newly invented " soft pedal,"
as applied to ihese instruments. By a simple and most ingenious arrangement the whole line of
hammers can be moved either in close proximity to the strings, or to any desirable part of their
striking distance, thereby enabling the performer, at will, to produce the full power of the instrument,
or the softest whisper of its tone, or any desired gradation of crescendo or decrefcendo,
nith the most unerring certainty. The volume of tone of these new instruments is, strange to
say, fully equal to that of their best and most powerful square pianos, while their quality is of
the most exquisite musical character, pure, sympathetic, and perfectly pliable, the " singing " capacity
and duration of sound of the instrument being truly surprising, thus enabling the pianist
to produce a variety of the most charming effects.
Prom a trial and hearing of one of these instruments, we are convinced of their very great
value to music. Their length and depth of tone is extraordinary; their vibratory power is in
keeping with the fullest and soundest volume of tone ;
and there is a dulcet and crystalline clearness
in the play of the higher keys. Sacred music, performed on this instrument, has a strength
and resonance^ not to be supplied by any other instrument of its size. It is also one of its remarkable
merits that its tone can be brought to a positive close at will of the player, thus avoiding
the old unmanageable vibration. We have no hesitation in approving the new instrimicnt,
which, with its peculiar and original advantages, seems the most perfect of its class. Its full
beauty of form and mechanism must be seen to be appreciated.

Those rights are, by federal as well as State laws,
secured to all domiciled aliens and foreigners,
even before the completion of the process of
naturalization ; and it may safel.y be assumed
that the same enactments are sufficient to give
like protection and benefit to those to whom this
bill provides special legislation. Besides, the
policy of the Government, from its origin to the
present time, seems to have been that persons
who are strangers to and unfamiliar with our
institutions and our laws should pass through a
certain probation at the end of which, before attaining
the coveted prize, they must give evidence
of their fitness to receive and to exercise
the rights of citizens, as contemplated by the
Constitution of the United States. The bill, in
effect, proposes a discrimination against large
numbers of intelligent, worthy, and patriotic
foreigners, and in favor of the negro, to whom,
ing, and regarded as an offence against public
decorum."
I do not say tliat this bill repeals State laws
on the subject of marriage between the two
races ; for, as the whites are forbidden to intermarry
with the blacks, the blacks can only
make such contracts as the whites themselves
are allowed to make, and therefore cannot,
under this bill, enter into the marriage contract
with the whites. 1 cite this discrimination,
however, as an instance of the State policy as
to discrimination, and to inquire whether, if
Congress can abrogate all State laws of discrimination
between the two races in the matter of
real estate, of suits, and of contracts generally,
Congress may not also repeal the State laws as
to the contract of marriage between the two

that Congress can repeal all State laws discriminating
between whites and blacks in the subjects
covered by this bill, why, it may be asked,
may not Congress repeal, in the same way, all
State laws discriminating between the two races
on the subjects of suffrage and oflBce? If Congress
can declare by law who shall hold lands,
who shall testify, who shall have capacity to
make a contract in a State, then Congress can
by law also declare who, without regard to color
or race, shall have the right to sit as a juror or
as a judge, to hold any office, and, finally, to
vote, " in every State and Territory of the United
States." As respects the Territories, they come

seems to be designed to apply to some existing
or future law of a .^tate or Territory which may

conflict with the provisions of the bill now under
consideration. It provides for counteracting
such forbidden legislation by imposing fine and
imprisonment upon the legislators who may pass
such conflicting laws, or upon the officers or
agents who shall put or attempt to put them into

law is paramount, and " under color " of a State

do not apprehend that the conflicting legislation
which the bill seems to contemplate is so likely
to occur as to render it necessary at this time
to adopt a measure of such doubtful constitutionality.
In the next place, this provision of the bill
seems to be unnecessary, as adequate judicial

visions of the third section, come under the exclusive
cognizance of the federal tribunals. It
follows that If, in any State which denies to a
colored person any one of all those rights, that
person should commit a crime against the laws
of a State—murder, arson, rape, or any other
crime—all protection and punishment through
the courts of the State are taken away, and he
can rtply be tried and punished in the federal
courts. How is the criminal to be tried? If
the offence is provided for and punished oy >ederal
law, that law, and not tlie State law, is to
govern. It is only when the offence does not
happen to be within the purview wf federal law
that the federal courts are to try and punish
him under any other law. Then resort is to be
had to the " common law, as modified and
changed " by State legislation, " so far as the
same is not inconsistent with the Constitution
and laws of the United States." So that over
this vast domain of criminal jurisprudence provided
by each State for the protection of its own
citizens, and for the punishment of all persons
who violate its criminal laws, federal law, whenever
it can be made to apply, displaces State law.
The question here naturally arises, from what
source Congi-ess derives the power to transfer to
federal tribunals certain classes of cases embraced
in this section? The Constitution expressly
declares that the judicial power of the
United States " shall e.xtend to all cases in law
and equity arising under this Constitution, the
laws of the United States, and treaties made, or
which shall be made under their authority; to
all cases affecting ambassadors, other public
ministers and consuls ; to all cases of admiralty
processes described by the bill. These numerous
official agents are made to constitute a sort of
police, in addition to the military, and are &nthorized
to summon a posse co^7U^(t?^^•*, and even
to call to their aid such portion of the land and
naval forces of the United States, or of the militia,

;
the act of September 24, 1789, establishing the
judicial courts of the United States, in conferring
such a manner as, while subserving the public
welfare, not to jeopard the rights, interests, and
upon the federal courts jurisdiction over cases
originating in State tribunals, is careful to confine
them to the classes enumerated in the aboverecited
clause of the Constitution. This section
of the bill undoubtedly comprehends cases and
authorizes the exercise of powers that are not,
by the Constitution, within the jurisdiction of
the courts of the United States. To transfer
them to those courts would be an exercise of
authority well calculated to excite distrust and
alarm on tlie part of all the States ; for the bill
applies alike to all of them—as well to those
that have as to those that have not been engaged
in rebellion.
It may be assumed that this authority is incident
to the power granted to Congress by the
Constitution, as recently amended, to enforce, by
appropriate legislation, the article declaring that
" neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except
as a punishment for crime whereof the party
shall have been duly convicted, shall exist
within the United States, or any place subject
to their jurisdiction." It'fcannot, however, be
justly claimed that, with a view to the enforce- I
ment of this article of the Constitution, there is
at present any necessity for the exercise of all
the powers which this bill confers. Slavery has
been abolished, and at present nowhere exists
within the jurisdiction of the United States ; nor
has there been, nor is it likely there will be, any
attempt to revive it by the people or the States.
If, however, any such attempt shall be made, It
will then become the duty of the General Government
to exercise any and all incidental powers
necessary and proper to maintain inviolate
this great constitutional law of freedom.
The fourth section of the bill provides that
officers and agents of the Freedmen's Bureau
shall be empowered to make arrests, and also
that other officers may be specially commissioned
for that purpose by the President of the
United States. It also authorizes circuit courts
of the United States and the superior courts of
the Territories to appoint, without limitation,
commissioners, who are to be charged with the
performance of guan judicial duties. The fifth
section empowers the commissioners so to be
selected by the courts to appoint in writing,
under their hands, one or more suitable persons
from time to time to execute warrants and other
liberties of the people.
The seventh section provides that a fee of ten
dollars shall be paid to each commissioner in
every case brought before him, and a fee of five
dollars to his deputy or deputies, " for each person
he or they may arrest and take before any
such commissioner," " with such other fees as
may be deemed reasonable by such commission,"
" in general for performing such other duties as
may be required in the premises." All these
fees are to be " paid out of the Treasury of the
United States," whether there is a conviction or
not ; but in case of conviction they are to be
recoverable from the defendant. It seems to
me that under the influence of such temptations
bad men might convert any law, however beneficent,
into an instrument of persecution and
fraud.
By the eighth section of the bill the United
States courts, which sit only in one place for
white citizens, must migrate, with the marshal
and district attorney (and necessarily with the
clerk, although he is not mentioned) to any
part of the district upon the order of the Tresi-

of the more speedy arrest and trial of persons
charged with a violation of this act ;" and there
the judge and officers of the court must remain,
upon the order of the President, " for the time

The ninth section authorizes the President, or
such person as he may empower for that purpose,
"to employ such part of the land or naval

THE EREEDMEN'S BUREAU BILL.
THE FIRST BILL.
The first " Freedmen's Bureau Bill," provid-.
ing that " the act to establish a bureau for the
relief of freedmen and refugees, approved
March 3, 1865, shall continue in force until
otherwise provided by law, and shall extend to
refugees and freedmen in all parts of the United
States," passed the Senate on Jan. 25, 18G6, by
37 yeas against 10 nays, a strict party vote.
The House passed the bill on Feb. 6, yeas 137
(all Republicans), nays 33 (Noell and Rousseau
voting with the Democrats).
THE PRESIDENT'S VEffO.
This bill was vetoed by the President in a
message dated Feb. 19. The President thinks
that there is no immediate necessity for the propo.sed
measure, as the act of March 3, 1865, has
not yet expired. He further objects to the bill,
that the trials under the origin of this bill are
to take place without the intervention of a jury,
and without any fixed rules of law or evidence,
and should it become a law, it "will have no
limitation in point of time, but will form a part
of the permanent legislation of the country," a
feature which he cannot reconcile with the
words of the Constitution granting to the accused
in all criminal prosecutions the right to
a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury.
Against the 3d section of the bill, authorizing
"a general and unlimited grant of support to
the destitute and suffering refugees and freedmen,
their wives and children," and against
the succeeding sections making provision for
the rent or purchase of landed estates for freedmen,
and for the erection for their benefit of
suitable buildings for asylums and schools, the
President urges that " the Congress of the United
States has never heretofore thought itself empowered
to establish asylums beyond the limits
of the District of Columbia, except for the
benefit of our disabled soldiers and sailors ;"
that " the appointment of an agent for every
county and parish will create an immense
patronage ; and the expense of the numerous
officers and their clerks, to be appointed by the
President, will be great in the beginning, with a
tendency steadily to increase ;" and that " large
appropriations would, therefore, be required to
sustain and enforce military jurisdiction in
every county or parish from the Potomac to the
Rio Grande."
In addition to the objections already stated,
the fifth section of the bill, the President thinks,
proposes to take away land from its former
owners without any legal proceedings being first
had, contrary to that provision of the Constitution
which declares that no person shall " be del)rived
of life, liberty, or property without due
process of law."
It is further urged that the bill will " tend to
keep the mind of the freedman in a state of uncertain
expectation and restlessness, while to
those among whom he lives it will be a source
of constant and vague apprehension."
The system proposed by the bill would, in the
opinion of the President, "inevitably tead to a
concentration of power in the Executive, which
would enable him, if so disposed, to control the
action of this numerous class (of the agents of
the Freedmen's Bureau), and use them for the
advancement of his own political ends.
Finally, the President regards the fact that
eleven States were not represented in Congress
at the time when the bill was passed as opposed
to " the principle firmly fixed in the minds of
the American people, that there should be no
taxation without representation." The unquestionable
right of Congress to judge, each house
for itself, " of the elections, returns, and qualifications
of its own members," cannot be construed,
the President says, as " including the
right to shut out, in time of peace, any State
from the representation to which it is entitled
by the Constitution."
THE BILL FAILS IN THE SENATE.
On Feb. 21, a vote was taken in the Senate on
passing the bill, notwithstanding the objections
of the President, with the following result
Yeas 30 (all Republicans) ; Nays 18 (10 Democrats
and 8 Republicans, namely. Cowan,
Dixon, Doolittle, Morgan, Norton, Stewart, Van
Winkle, Willey). Two-thirds of the Senate not
having voted therefor, the bill failed.

dated at Savannah, Georgia, Jan. 16, 1865, and

distinction of race or color, shall receive
Rebellion, until such State shall be fully restored
in its constitutional relations to the Government.
THE VETO OF THE SECOND BILL BY THE
PRESIDENT.
The second bill was again vetoed by the President
in a message, dated July 16. The President
refers to the objections which his message
of Feb. 19 made to the first bill, and states that
he adheres " to the principles set forth in that
message," and now reaffirms "them, and the
line of policy therein indicated." The President
insists that "by means of the civil tribunals
ample redress is afforded for all private wrongs,
whether to the person or the property of the
citizen, without denial or unnecessary delay.
They are open to all, without regard^ to color or
race. I feel well assured that it will be better
to trust the rights, privileges and immunities f
the citizens to tribunals thus established, and
presided over by competent and impartial judges,
bound by fixed rules of law and evidence, and
where the right of trial by jury is guaranteed
and secured, than to the caprice or judgment of
an officer of the Bureau, who, it is possible, may
be entirely ignorant of the principles that underlie
the just administration of the law. There
is danger, too, that the conflict of jurisdiction
will frequently arise between the civil couits
and these military tribunals, each having concurrent
jurisdiction over the person and the
cause of action ; the one jurisdiction administered
and controlled by civil law, the other by
military.
He also urges upon the consideration of Congress
as an additional reason that " recent developments
in regard to the practical operations ,
of the Bureau in many of the States show that
in numerous instances it is used by its agents as
a means of promoting their individual advantage,
and that the freedmen are employed for
the advancement of the personal ends of the
i
officsrs, instead of their own improvement and
oppression. It is proper to state that in cases of
this character investigations have been promptly
ordered, and the offender punished whenever his
welfare, thus confirming the fears originally entertained
by many that the continuation of such
a Bureau for any unnecessary length of time
would inevitably result in fraud, corruption and
guilt has been satisfactorily established."
" As another reason (continues the message)
against the necessity of the legislation contemplated
by this measure, reference may be had to
the Civil Rights Bill, now a law of the land, and
which will be faithfully executed so long as it
shall remain unrepealed, and not be declared
unconstitutional by courts of competent juris-

diction. By that act full protection is afforded
through the District Courts of the United States
to all persons injured, and whose privileges as
thus declared are in any way impaired, and very
heavy penalties are denounced against the person
who wilfully violates the law. I need not
state that that law did not receive my approval,
yet its remedies are far more preferable than
those proposed in the present bill, the one being
civil and the other military."
With regard to the sixth section of the bill,
which conflrms and ratifies certain proceedings
by which the lands in the parishes of St. Helena
and St. Luke, South Carolina, were sold and
bid in, and afterward disposed of by the Tax
Commissioners, and with regard to the seventh,
eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh sections, which
make provisions for the disposal of the lands
thus acquired to a particular class of citizens,
the President says "
: While the quieting
of titles is deemed very important and desirable,
the discrimination made in the bill seems objectionable,
as does also the attempt to confer upon
the Commissioners judicial powers by which
citizens of the United States are to be deprived
of their property in a mode contrary to that
provision of the Constitution which declares
that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty
or property without due process of law. As a
general principle such legislation is unsafe, unwise,
partial and unconstitutional,"

THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
The following is the text of the Constitutional
Amendment now awaiting the action of the
Legislatures of the several States
Joint Resolution proposing an amendment to
the Constitution of the United States.
Be it enacted, hy the Senate and House
of RepresentatiAses of the United States of
America in Congress assembled (two-thirds of
both Houses concurring). That the following
article be proposed to the Legislatures of the
several States as an amendment to the Constitution
of the United States, which, when ratified
by three-fourths of said Legislatures, shall be
valid as part of the Constitution, namely
ARTICLE XIV.—Section 1. All persons born
or naturalized In the United States and subject
to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the
United States and of the State wherein they reside.
No State shall make or enforce any law
which shall abridge the privileges or immunities
of citizens of the United States ; nor shall any
State deprive any person of life, liberty, or
property, without due process of law, nor deny
to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.
Sec. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned
among the several States according to their
respective numbers, counting the whole number
of persons in each State, excluding Indians not
taxed. But when the right to vote at any election
for the choice of Electors for President and
Vice-President of the United States, Representatives
in Congress, the executive and judicial
officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature
thereof is denied to any of the male inhabitants
of such State, being twenty-one years
of age and citizens of the United States, or in
any way abridged, except for participation in
rebellion or other crime, the basis of representation
therein shall be reduced in proportion
which the number of such male citizens shall
bear to the whole number of male citizens
twenty-one years of age in such State.

State, who, having previously taken an oath, as
a member of Congress, or as an officer of the
United States, or as a member of any State
Legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer
of any State, to support the Constitution of the
United States, shall have engaged in insurrection
or rebellion against the same, or given aid
and comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress
may, by a vote of two-thirds of each
House, remove such disability.
Sec. 4. The validity of the public debt of the
United States authorized by law, including
debts incurred for payment of pensions and
bounties for ser\'ices in suppressing insurrection
and rebellion, shall not be questioned. But
neither the United States nor any State shall
assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred
in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the
United States, or any claim for the loss or
emancipation of any slave ; but all such debts,
obligations or claims shall be held illegal and
void.
Sec. 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce,
by appropriate legislation, the provisions
of this article.
VOTES ON THE AMENDXfENT.
The first draft of the above Constitutional
Amendment was reported in the House, on April
30th, by Mr. Stevens, from the Joint Select Committee
on Reconstruction.
On May 10, Mr. Stevens demanded the previous
question, which was seconded on a count,
85 to 57 ; and the main question was ordered
yeas 84, nays 79. The joint resolution then
passed — yeas 128 (all Republicans), nays 37
(Democrats 32, and Latham, Phelps, Rousseau,
Smith and ^ haley, Unionists).
The proposition was amended in the Senate,
and brought to a vote on June 8, when it passed
by a vote of yeas 33 (all Republicans) nays 11
(Democrats 7, and Cowan. Doolittle, Norton,
and Van Winkle, LTnionists). In the House the
Amendment as amended by the Senate passed
on June 13— yeas 138 (all Kepublicans) nays 36
(all Democrats).
On June ICth, the Amendment was deposited
in the State Department, and on the same day a
certified copy sent by the Secretary of State to
the Governors of the States. On June 18th, both
Houses passed a resolution to request the President
to submit the adopted Amendment. On
June 20th, the Secretary of State notified the
President of his having received the bill and
transmitted a copy to the Governors. On Juno
22d, the President submitted the report of the
Secretary of State to Congress, expressing at the
same time his disapproval of the Amendment.
ACTION OF STATE LEGISLATURES.
The Amendment, up to Dec. 30th, had been
ratified by the Legislatures of Tennessee, Connecticut,
New Hampshire, Oregon, New Jersey,
Vermont.
It had on the other hand been rejected by the
Legislatures of Texas, Georgia, Alabama, North
Carolina, South Carolina and Florida.
ADDRESS OF THE NATIOXAL UXIOX COMMITTEE.
A majority of the members of the National
Executive Union Committee which was elected
by the Nominating National Convention of the
Union Party in 1864 held a meeting in Philadelphia,
at which the places of Henry J. Raymond,
of New York, the Chairman of the Committee,
N. D. Sperry, of Connecticut, and George
R. Senter, of Ohio, were declared vacant, " by
reason of their abandonment of the principles
of the National Union Party and affiliation
with its enemies." Governor Ward, of New
Jersey, was elected Chairman. The Committee
published an addri:-ss to the American People, of
which the following are the most important portions
:
FELLow-CmzENS : Very grave differences having
arisen between your inunediate Representatives
in Congress and the President who owes
his position to your votes, we are impelled to
ask your attention thereto, and to suggest the
duties to your country which they render imperative.
The claim of the insurgents that they either
now reacquired or had never forfeited their constitutional
rights in the Union, including that of
representation in Congress, stands in pointed
antagonism alike to the requirements of Congress
and to those of the acting President. It
was the Executive alone who, after the Rebellion
was no more, appointed Provisional Governors
for the now submissive, unarmed Southern
States, on the assumption that the Rebellion had
been •' revolutionary," and had deprived the
people imder its sway of all civil government,
and who required the assembling of a " Convention,
composed of delegates to be chosen by
that portion of the people of said State who are
loyal to the United States, and no othem, for
the purpose of altering and amending the ConstUution
of said State." It was President Johnson
who, so late as October last—when all shadow
of overt resistance to the Union had long
since disappeared—Insisted that it was not
enough that a State which had revolted must
recognize her Ordinance of Secession as null
and void from the beginning, and ratify the Constitutional
Amendment prohibiting Slavery evermore,
but she must also repudiate "every dollar
of indebtedness created to aid in carrj-ing on the
Rebellion." It was he who ordered the dispersion
by military force of any legislature chosen
under the Rebellion which should assume power
to make laws after the Rebellion had fallen. It
was he who referred to Congress all inquirers as
to the probability of Representatives from the
States lately in revolt being admitted to seats in
either House, and suggested that they should
present their credentials, not at the organization
of Congress, but afterward. And finally, it was
he, and not Congress, who suggested to his Gov.
Sharkey of Mississippi, that
" If you could extend the elective franchise
to all persons of color who can read the Constitution
of the United States in English and write
their names, and to all persons of color who own
real estate valued at not less than $250, and pay

adversary, and set an example that other States

right of the loyal States to exact conditions and
require guaranties of those which plunged madly

power in the Union shall henceforth be
based only on that portion of the people of each
State who are deemed by its constitution fit depositories
of such power. In other words: A

since their record places them on the same side.

the Soap will not injure the most delicate fabric, while it will be found to be the most pleasant
washing soap ever offered in market. It is made from CLEAN and PURE materials, contains
no adulterations of any kind, and is especially adapted for woolens, which will not shrink after
being washed with this Soap. Ask for B. T. B;U5BITT'S SOAP, and take no other. Each bar is
wrapped in a circular containing full directions for use, printed in English and German. One
pound of this Soap is equal to three pounds of ordinary family soap. Directions sent in each box

paint, grease, tar, and stains of all kinds. It will not injure the fabric ; on the contrary, it
preserves it. It will wash in hard or salt water. But little labor is required where this Soap is
used. Machinists and printers will find this Soap superior to anything in market.

AMERICAN (WALTHAM) WATCHES
I.—We claim, and are prepared to prove, that the American Watches, manufactured at
Waltham, Massachusetts, are not only equal, but far superior to the common watches of England,
Switzerland, and France.
II.—AVhile we admit that it would be difficult to excel the masterpieces of the eminent
European manufacturers, and while we do not claim to have made any decisive improvements
over them, we do assert, and challenge a successful denial, that^ur superior class of watches
are fully equal, in every reitpect, to the most expensive specimens of foreign
chronometrical art.
III.—We claim that our Watches are cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more durable,
better adapted for American use, and more easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market.
IV.—The reasons why our Watches possess these advantages over their European rivals
chiefly
are
First Because the principle of the division of labor is carried out in our workshops to its
extremest limits, not in human industry only but in machinery as well. Every watch passes
through hundreds of hands and hundreds of machines.
Second. Because we promptly adopt every new invention to perfect our machinery, and every
proflfered improvement in the structure of watches.
Tliird. Because in each one of the very numerous, minute, and often microscopic parts of
which a watch is made up, we attain, by mechanical power, nearly ahsolute mathematical precision
and uniformity, which it is utterly impossible to achieve by manual labor. Wheels, pinions,
escapements, balances, springs, and screws—exact counterparts in weight, circumference, and
dimensions—are turned out by millions by the unerring, because unswerving, iron hands of machinery.
Hence, every watch of any one style is a true copy of its modeU
V.—These results enable us to defy foreign rivalry, because no similar uniformity and precision
is attainable by hand, and because in Waltham alone is machinery exclusively employed in
the manufacture of this intricate and delicate mechanism.
VI.—Now, as will be seen at once, this similarity in structure reduces the cost of production
it secures uniformity in results ; it perpetuates and infallibly diffuses any excellence that may
be once achieved ;
and makes it easy to repair any injury sustained, or replace any part that may
be lost or destroyed.
VII.—In addition to these mechanical advantages, our Watches are simpler in structure, and
therefore stronger, and less likely to be injured than the majority of foreign watches. They are
In an old English watch there are more than 700 parts.
composed of from 125 to 300 pieces.
Vm.—We began our experiment in 1853, in the face of a formidable prejudice against
American watches. Our system was new and untried. We have steadily increased our facilities,
until now wo employ over 700 artisans, and sell 70,000 watches a year. Nearly a quarter of a
million of our watches are in use to-day in every State of the Union, as well as in the Mexican
and British Provinces and Colonies. Their imiversal popularity is the best proof of their merit
that we can produce. They have won their way in spite of every opposition and of immemorial
prejudices. Hundreds of dealers all over the country have expressed their preference for our
products after a long and practical experience with foreign watches.

TWO VOLUMES.
This work is noTV completed, aud in fullness of detail, vigor of style,
clearness and accuracy of statement, it more than fulfills the high expectations
of the public. It is marked by an impartiality of judgment,
discrimination, and ability to cope with the subject, which have won the
admiration of all classes. Even the author's political opponents pronounce
it vastly superior to any other work on the subject.
This history contains accounts of nearly one hundred Battles and
Minor Conflicts (the losses in several of which numbered more than 1,000
each) not described in the most popular of the earlier histories of the war.
^TESTIMONIALS.
We can afford to speak well of an enterprise which elicits favorable mention from those
who might be presumed to regard it with an unfavorable eye. New York Evening Post.
Mr. Greeley is the best historian of the war as yet—a man of uncommon vigor of faculties
and incisiveness of style ;
and until somebody shall bring better qualifications to the task, we
suppose we must be thankful to him for a history written by a man of talent. N. Y. World.
All agree that Mr. Greeley's "American Conflict" is as candid, as well as complete, a tracing
of the causes of the Rebellion, and of the Rebellion itself, as it is possible for finite man to
write. Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
It is undoubtedly the best exposition of the origin, causes, and progress of the late Kebellion
that has yet been published. Bknj. F. Wade, V. S. Senate.
It bears the marks of labor, studied candor, and accuracy. Wm. H. Sbwakd, Sec'y of State.
The narrative is simple and clear, with so much of life and spirit in it that it is next to impossible
not to read a whole chapter without stopping. Edgab Cowan, U. S. Senate.
I consider it decidedly the best history of the great Rebellion which has yet been written.
* * * Its entire freedom from partisan bigotry, and the evident sincerity of the writer,
inspire perfect confidence in its truth as a history. James Dixon, U. S. Senate.
I have read most of the books relative to the War which have been published. This I
deem to be the one worthy of preservation for the library. Alex. H. Bollock, Gov. of Mass.

IlIOE[A.RDSO]Sr'S
"BEYOND THE MISSISSIPPI.'^
THE MOST FASOmATING BOOK OF THE YEAE.
A Thrilling Record of Border Life, Humor and Adventure.
500 Large Octavo Pages— 200 Illustrations,
Mr. Albert D. Richardsok of The Tribcne has in press a new volume of adventure, called
" BEVOXD THE MISSISSIPPI." It will contain 500 large octavo pages, and 200 illustrations
from original photographs and sketches, and from the pencils of Bierstadt, Hennessy, AMiite,
Eytinge, Nast, Fenn, Perkins, Waud, and other American artists of repute.
Mr. Richardson bore a part in the Kansas Border Warfare, was a pioneer among the Colorado
gold mines, and has spent several years in the other new States and Territories. Headers of The
Tribune are already familiar with his picturesqiie descriptive writing, and his valuable and sagacious
observations upon the life, resources and industries of the Far West. The Pacific Railroad
welding its iron links with marvelous rapidity, will in five years make San Francisco near neighbor
to New York. Then we shall have no pioneers, no Far West, no wild romance of half-barba
rian existence, and frontier life will be a past phase of our national civilization. We are confident
that Mr. Richardson's new book will, by its faithful transcription and its multiplied pictures,
admirably illustrate this fleeting period. His " Field, Dungeon and Escape " has nearly reached
a sale of oi>6 hundred thnuKaiul copies—a success unapproached by any other bonk of war experience.
"BEYOND THE MISSISSIPPI" is issued (by subscription only) by the American
Publishing Co. of Hartford, Ct. AVe understand that the publishers pay Sir. Richardson $7,000
for the manuscript.—.V. Y. Tribune, Dea. 3, 1866.
"BETOsn THE Mississippi" records years of life, experience and travel in Kansas, during the
Border Kuflian Wars—in Missouri, visiting the iron mountains and lead mines—in the Indian
Territory, among the civilized Choctaws, Cherokees and Chickasaws—over the Great Staked Plain
of Northern Te.xas, and the famed Desert known as " The Journey of the Dead Man " —among
the quaint Oriental scenes of the old Mexican City of El Paso—alone over solitary mountain trails
through the country of hostile savages—in New Mexico with Kit Carson the renowned trapper
seven times across the great plains to the Rocky Mountains—with Horace Greeley among buflaloes,
Indians, and Colorado gold miners—with Hon. Schuyler Colfax, Lieut. Gov. Bross of Illinois,
and Samuel Bowles of The Springfield (J/

READING FORJHE LADIES!
EvERTBODT -welcomes the new Almanac, and, with intuitive instinct, look
through its pages with pleasant recollections, as well as expectations. Our New
England ancestry esteemed it the most important periodical, and reposed as
much confidence in its prognostications as the Navigator does in his Barometer,
and their posterity, who already overlap a continent, continiie to welcome the
time-honored visitor. The Tribune Almanac, designed for the domestic as
well as the political circle, contains much information in its advertising department
that is applicable to the wants of housekeepers.
But special reference is
made to the advertiser on the lower part of this page, whose articles have acquired
a reputation as reliable as the astronomical calculations of DaboU, and
which are of much more practical interest to our lady readers than were the
atmospheric prophecies in the old Farmers' Almanac to our Revolutionary
matrons. In New York and the New England States, the name of James Pyle
in connection with Saleratus, Cream Tartar and Soap—has beco.ne a household
word, and from experience we judge, justly, too, he is not one who looks for an
immediate fortune from the pockets of the credulous, by intrigue and misrepresentation,
but relies upon equitable dealing and a proper regard for the wants
of the consumer, to secure confidence, patronage, compensation, and a legacy
for his progeny more valuable than gold. The economical will find their interests
well served in the patronage of his Saleratus and Soap.

An improvement in pianos is claimed by Messrs. Raven & Bacon, No. 185 Grand
Street. They have introduced vibratory chamber or drum, composed of a series
a
of sounding-boards, in that part of the piano case not occupied by the keys. LTpon this
vibratory chest is supported the main sounding-board which carries the strings, thus separating
and relieving it from the solid work of the case, and resting it entirely on the vibratory chest.
The effect of tUs is to increase remarkably the power and quality of tone, which from the slightest
touch evoking purity and beauty of sound can be increased to any extent of piano power. The
instrument responds ably to the requirements of the musician as regards strength and volume
;
and we emphasize the fact that it embodies a successful endeavor to improve the sounding-board,
the attempt to do which has so often failed.
The great aim of the manufacturers is to obtain a powerful and prolonged tone. The connection
of the sounding-board with the case prevented sustainment and length of tone.
In the Messrs. Raven & Bacon's improvement the sounding-board is freed from the
rigidity of such a connection. The increased vibration thereby imparted produces a
full, mellow, and prolonged singing-tone. The house of Raven k Bacon dates from the
year 1829, and in that time their instruments have won a reputation for capacity and durability
that is in itself a prepossession in favor of any improvement they announce. N. Y. Tribune.

To eacli quart of flour add two teaspoonsful of YEAST and the usual quantity of salt ; mix
them thoroughly together while dry. then add cold water or sweet milk ;
make the dough as thin
as can be moulded into a biscuit ; the thinner the dough is the whiter and lighter they will be.
No shortening is required for Biscuit wfaea milk Is used, and very little when water is used.
Bake at once.
Buckw^heat Cakes
should have three tcaspoonsful mixed with the flour while dry ; and mix no more at a time than
is wanted. Use it for Pot-pies, Pie-crust, Plum Puddings, Johnny Cakes, Indian Cakes, Cornmeal
Cakes, Com Bread, Butter Cakes, and Fried Cakes or Doughnuts, all kinds of Sweet Cakes, and
all kinds of pastry.
OBSERVATIONS.
Bread made in this manner contains nothing but Flour, Common Salt, and Water. It has an
agreeable, natural taste ; keeps much longer than common bread ; is more digestible, and much
less disposed to turn acid. Common bread, like everything that has been fermented, ferments
easily again, to the great discomfort of many stomachs ; and not only so, but acting as a ferment,
it communicates a similar action to all food in contact with it.
The Bread being free from all yeasty particles is more digestible, and not so likely to create
flatulence, or turn acid on weak stomachs, as fermented bread is apt to do. And when of the
finest quality, it is beneficial to those who suffer from headache, acidity, flatulence, eructations, a
sense of sinking at the pit of the stomach, distention, or pains after meals, and to all who are
subject to gout or gravel.
It is also useful In many affections of the skin.

SOLE PROPRIETORS AND MANAGERS-
The above works were erected during the years 1S47, '48 and M9, by the Senior Proprietor,
who has (with short interruptions) been constantly connected with them as the principal manager,
and since 1855 to the summer of 1863, in connection with his Junior Brothers, under the
style of EMEilY BROTtlERS.
In 1862 he attended the World's Fair at London, with some of his leading Inventions, and
remained abroad nearly two years, engaged In establishing their manufacture there.
On his return in 1864, the senior proprietor purchased the entii-e interest in and to these
works, business, patterns, working machinery, and its business.

AMERICAN EMIGRANT COMPANY,
Chartered for the purpose of procuring and assisting Emigrants from
Foreign Countries to settle in the United /States.
Incorporated with an Authorized Capital of $1,000,000.
PAID-TJP CAPITAL $600,000.
Freniilent, Geohgb iL Bartholomew, Hartford, Conn. Vice- President, Daniel L. IIarms,

Nrlson Kingsbcry, Hartford ; S. P. Lyman and JouN Williams, New Vork ; J. C. Saveby, Dcs
Moines, Icwa ; and Daniel L. Harris, Springfield, Mass.
The object of the American Emigrant Company is to meet the urgent and increasing necessity
which is felt for the organization and direction of the labor of the immense multitudes of immigrants
arriving in this country ; and for this purpose arrangements of the most complete and
effective character have been made for the distribution of those persons—South as well as West—
immediately on their landing here. The mode of operation is the following :—Agencies have been
established in Liverpool, Gothenburg, Hamburg, and Havie, through which information on all
American subjects of interest to the emigrant is circulated by means of sub-agencies employed
throughout Great Britain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Austria, Prussia, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland,
and France. Employment in advance is provided for workingmen of every nationality
and of every kind of employment, and emigrants coming under the auspices of the Company are
in all cases directed to the localities where their services are most required and are best paid.
In addition to this, accurate and reliable information is afforded to all emigrating from Europe
with the view of settling upon land, and by this means they are instructed carefully and fully as
to the condition and circiunstances of any special place they may desire to settle in, and full information
to guide them in the judicious choice of a locality for their residence is placed at their
disposal. The value of such an agency in Europe, commanding—as the American Emigrant Company
does—the respect and confidence ef the people coming from Europe to America, and its
power to stimulate and direct the flow of emigration, will be manifest. A central office is located
at New York, with branch offices in the principal cities of the AVestand South. By means of this
thoroughly organized and widely ramified system of agencies through all sections of the United
States the following ends are gained : 1. Information is afforded gratuitously to every emigrant
arriving in New York or Boston, as to the most desirable locality. South, AVest, or East, for him to
select, according to his special object. 2. Employment is secured in the Southern and Western
States, in advance, for emigrants arriving, and in many cases the means of traveling to reach it
are supplied. .3. Workmen—mechanical, mining, and agricultural—are directly imported from
Europe, under the provision of the law of July 4, 1864, and any individual, any special industry,
or any locality, can be promptly supplied with labor. 4. The agents of the Company, all through
the interior of the couptry, receive and aid immigrants as they are dispatched from the seaboard,
without any charge whatever to them.
The Company has already agencies established in Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Milwaukee,
St. Louis, Des Moines, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and is engaged in organizing agencies
in Memphis, Nashville, Richmond, Raleigh, Wilmington, Charleston, and New Orleans.
The American Emigrant Company possesses an abundant capital and commands the confidence
and support of the best men «f the community. In referring to this Corporation, the
Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York, in its celebrated report on immigration, used
this language :— " Under the sanction of this law a Society before established, now known as the
'
American Emigrant Company.' has put In operation the necessary measures for bringing to this
country the skilled and other labor of England and the continent. Asking public confidence, it
refers to some of our first citizens in support of its claim. Your Committee are of opinion that
it has undertaken a most praiseworthy and important work, inaugurating a system of supply well
calculated to meet a pressing and vital want."
The Company has been in active operation some years, and is now weekly receiving and
distributing a large number of emigrants. Meeting the necessities of the present crisis, it
appeals to the sympathy and support of all desiring the restoration of the South to prosperity
the development of the mighty resources of the West, and the general industrial welfare of the
nation. Letters should be addressed to

TO DO AWAY WITH THE LARGE PROFITS
which had formerly been made upon Teas induced the originators erf the Company to start
their enterprise; and to save these profits to the consumers, as far as possible, was the object
"°To give our readers an idea of the profits which have been made in the Tea trade, we will
start w-ith the American houses, leaving out of the account entirely the profits of the Chmese
factor.
1st The American house in China or Japan makes large profits on their sales or shipments—
and some of the richest retired merchants in this country have made their immense fortunes
through their hoi^se in China.
2d. The Banker makes large profits upon the foreign exchange used in the purchase of Teas.
3d. The Importer makes a profit of SO to 50 per cent, in many cases.
4th On its arrival here it is sold by the cargo, and the Purchaser sells it to the Speculator in
invoices of 1,000 to 2,000 packages, at an average profit of about 10 per cent.
5th. The Speculator sells it to the Wholesale Tea Dealer, in lines, at a profit of 10 to 15
per cent.
6th. The 'Wholesale Tea Dealer
profit of about 10 per cent.
7th.
8th.
The Wholesale Grocer sells to the Retail Dealer at a profit of 15 to 25 per cent.
The Retailer sells it to the consumer for all the pro/it he can get.
When you have added to these eight profits as many brokerages, cartages, storages, cooperages
and waste, and add the original cost of the Tea, it will be perceived what the consumer
has to pay. And now we propose to show why we can sell so very much lower than small
We propose to reduce rents about three-fourths, and to do away with all these various profits
and brokerages, cartages, storages, cooperages and waste, with the exception of a small commission
paid for purchasing to our correspondents in China and Japan, one cartage, and a small
profit to ourselves—which, on our large sales, will amply pay us.
Parties getting their Teas from us may confidently rely upon gettmg them pure and fresh, as
they come direct from the Custom House stores to our warehouses. But we would not be willing
to vouch for the purity of them if compelled to pass through so many hands as we have before
enumerated as being necessary in the routine of ordinary trade.
The rules of the Company are ; To sell their goods at the smallest profit possible, basmg their
trade upon a sale of at least
ONE THOUSAND CHESTS PER WEEK ;
Cash Sales in all cases, thus avoiding the necessity of making large profits to make up for losses
by bad debts ; having but
ONE PRICE,
thus treating all customers alike. There is no deviation from these rules under any circumstances
but, on the contrary, a strict adherence to them enables the Company to sell to the
;
consumer at the usual cargo prices. . , tm -n-
„
It is only bv long experience that a person can become a judge of Teas. We give our customers
the full benefit of our experience in Tea-tasting, and we flatter ourselves that our judgment
in the matter of selecting Teas to suit the wants and tastes of consumers cannot be excelled by
'^'^Vh°rouch*our'^sys'tem of supplying Clubs throughout the country, consumers in all parts of the
United States can receive their Teas at the same prices (with the small additional expense of
transportation) as though they bought them at our warehouses in this city.
OUR TEADE HAS TJOW KEAOHED SUCH A MAGNITUDE
we are compelled to occupy more space than any other commercial establishment in this city,
that
except perhaps, the great Dry Goods houses of A. T. Stewart & Co. We employ a force n our
neaVly two hundred, which we are compelled to work to their utmost capacity to
stores of
6uppiv the demand of our trade. To this we might add paper-bag manufacturers, box-makers,
etc etc until we swelled the total to three hundred as the number we constantly employ.

GETTING UP CLUBS.
Some i^arties inquire of us how they shall proceed to get up a Club. The
answer is simply this : Let each person wishing to join in a club say how much
Tea or Coffee he wants, and select the kind and price from our Price List, as
published in the paper or in our circulars, i "Write the names, kinds, and amounts
on a list, and when the club is complete send it to us by mail, and we
will put each party's goods in separate packages, and mark flie name upon
them, with the cost, so there need be no confusion in their distribution—each
party getting exactly what he orders and no more. The cost of transportation
the members of the Club can divide equitably among themselves.
The funds to pay for the goods ordered can be sent by drafts on 'New York,
by Post Office money orders, or by Express, as may suit the convenience of the
Or if the amount ordered exceeds thirty dollars, we will, if desired, send
the goods by Express to " collect on delivery."

ILLINOIS
Is about equal in eitent to England, with a population
of 1,722,666, and a soil capable of supporting 20,000,000.
No State in the valley of the Mississippi offers so great
an inducement to the settler aa the State of Illinois. There
is no part of the world where all the conditions ef climate
and soil so admirably combine to produi:0 those
two great staples, Coan and Wheal
CLIMATE.
Kowhere can the industrious farmer secure such Immediate
results from his lalx)r as on these deep, rich, loamy
soils, cultivated with so much ease. The climate from the
eitreme southern part of the State to the Terre Haute,
Alton and St. Louis Kailroad, a distance of nearly ^oO
miles, is well adapted to Winter
WHEAT, CORN, COTTON, TOBACCO,
Peaches, Pears, Tomatoes, and every variety of fruit
and vegetables are grown in great abundance, from which
Chicago and other Northern markets are furnished fri^ui
four to six weeks earlier than their immediate vicinity.
THE ORDINARY YIELD
of Cora is from 60 to 60 bushels per acre. Cattle, Horses,
Mules, Sheep and Hogs are raised here at a small cost,
and yield large profits. It is believed that no section ol
country presents greater inducements for Dairy Fanning
than the Prairies of Illinois, a branch of farming to which
but little attention has been paid, and which must yield
Buie profitable results.
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS.
The Agricultural products of Illinoia are greater than
those of any other State. The Wheat crop of 1&61 was
estimated at 35,000,000 bushels, while the Com crop yields
not lt»9 than 140,000,000 bushels, besides the crop of Oats,
Barley, Rye, Buckwheat, Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, Pamp-

The Little Corporal.' Its subscription list at the end of the first year
numbers 35,00i', and if it continues to be conducted with the same ability and enterprise which
are now devoted to it, there is no reason why the second jear should not close with a roll of 70,000
subscribers. It is an admirable periodical, lively, entertaining, instructive, unesceptionable in
tone, and charmingly printed. It is published at the low price of $1 a year."
" It sparkles and bubbles like a perpetually overflowing spring, and grows better, if possible,
from month to month." Kewcuiee Dial.
" The Little Corporal is the best juvenile paper published in the w^orld." JUarshall Statesman.
" The Little Corporal is the most entertaining publication for the young that we have ever

TRIBUNE .iLMAMC FOR 1868.
The Astronomical CalcuIaUnns have been made expressly fir this A lmasac, by SAMDEL UABT
AVRIGHT, M. D., A. M., Peun Yun, N. Y.
Eclipses for the Year 1S68.
There will be only two Eclipses this year, both of the Sun, and neither of them visible in the
United States.
I. An Annular Eclipse of the Sun, February 23. Visible in South America, Africa, and
Southern Europe.
II. A Total Eclipse of the Sun, August 18. Visible in Eastern Africa, Southern Asia, and in
Australia.
A Transit op Mebcury over the Sun's (Use, will occur November 5. Invisible In the United
SUtes.
The Planets.
Merccrt ( 5 ) wUl be at the most favorable stations for visibility, February 17, June 13, aad
October 0, being then Evening Star, and appearing in the west Just after sunset; also April 7,
August 5, and November 24, being then Morning Star, and appearing in the east just before
sunrise.
Venus (?) will be in the constellation Capricomus until January 20, then in Aquarius nntil
February 15, being directly south of the Urn January 23. It pcisscs the equinoctial February 15,
rising exactly on the east point of the horizon, and setting squarely in the west. It will be in
Pisces from this time to March 12, then in Aries until April G. On the 4th of April it will be 2°
south of the brightest star in the Pleiades. April 14 it will be S° north of Aldebaran, and on the
25vh it will be 2° 22' south of B TaurL It passes the solstitial colure Slay 4, and will be farthest
north May 6. May 7 it reaches its greatest eastern elongation from the Sun. 45' 31'. On the 26th
it will be T" south of Castor, and on the 30th it will be 4° south of Pollu.v. June 9 it will be
irighUst; after which it approaches the Sun, aad daily loses its splendor. June 23 it becomes
stationary, having been moving direct, or eastward, since its last superior conjunction, but now it
begins to retrograde, and is situated a little southwest of the nebula; in Cancer. It passes Pollux
again July 18, 12° 2S' to south of it ; but this will not be visible, as Venus will be in inferior conjunction
with the Sun on the IGth, and itself invisible. It now moves off from the Sun wesSward
apparently, and increases in beauty as a morning star. On the 7th of August it becomes stationary
again, and begins to pass the stars eastward, and reaches its greatest splendor again on the
21st. On the 25th of September it reaches its greatest western elongation, 46= 9'. October 6 it will
bel° souti of Eegulus. November 7 it crosses the Equator southward; November 21, 4' north
of Spica ; December 10, enters Libra's Square ; and on the 15th is near the middle oi it ; December
29, C° 12' north of Antares.
Mabs ( : ) will come to the meridian during the daylight for the first nine months of the year.
It has no opposition this year, and will not be an object of much interest until near the close of
the year. November 27 it will be 2* north of Regulus in tixe handle of the Sickle. It will be near
the Sickle during November and Dftcember.
JcirrEP. (i:) has been traveling northxvard since May 8, 1865, and on the first
day of May it
crosses the Equator, and rises exactly in the east at 3h. 32m, mom. It will be southeast of the
Um in the first part of the year, but directly east of it May 1. October 1 it wiU be brightest and
in opposition to the Sun, rising at suneet and setting at sunrise. On the Sth of April it will be
very close to Mars.
Sattrs ( ^ ) will be in opposition May 23, and brightest, rising as the Sun setc, aod Betting as
the Sun rises.
It will be in the region 10* or 12° north of Antares all of the year.
OccTTLTATioss.—The Moon will occult or eclipse the bright star a Tauri, or Aldebaran, January
7, at Ih. 17m. mom., at Washington, the star reappearing at 2h. 20m. The same star will also be
occulted again November 29, at 5h. 54m. eve., at Washington, and reappear at 6h. 51m, eve.
These occultations are interesting to witness

.
THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC FOR 18G8.
A Table of Sixty-one Bri^Iit Stars.
To ascertain when any Star or constellation found in tlie following Table will be on the upper
meridian, add the numbers opposite in the left-hand column of figures to the time of " Sidereal
Noon " found in the calendar pages. For the kisino of a star, Hublract the number opposite in
the right-hand column of figures from its meridian passage. For the setting of a star, add the same
number to its meridian passage.* Tliose marked ( ) revolve in a circle of perijetual apparition,
and do not rise or set north of the latitude of New York (40° 42' 40"), for which latitude the semidiurnal
arcs are calculated. The civil da,y begins at midnight, and consequently 24 hours after
midnight, or 12 hours from noon, is morninij of the succeeding day; and more than 24 hours
from noon, is evening of the next day. This table is arranged ia the order of culmination.
Surveyors and Civil Ensrineers may obtain the variation of the magnetic needle
by observations on the Pole Star when upon the meridian, or when at its greatest elongation east
or west. PoL.tKis and other stars pass the lower meridian llh, 5Sm. after their upper transit.
To the time of upper transit of Polaris, add 5h. 54m. and it gives the time of greatest xceAtem
elongation. If the 5h. 54ra. be subtracted from the time of upper transit, it will give the time of
gieatest eastern elongation.
Observations made at the time of greatest elongation are lem liable
to error than those made at the time of transit. The mean distance of Polaris from the pole this
year is 1 ° 9.3' 40". To find its azimuth for any latitude, take from 1 S.S86ii36 the logarithmic cosine
of the latitude, and the remainder is the logarithmic sine of the azimuth.

I 1VII.I. GIVE
OHE OtJHCE OF GOLD
for every ounce of adulteration found in my Coffee.
For the first Six Months I shall put
THREE $1 GREENBACKS
In every Box of Sixty Pounds (that is, three cans in
each box will contain a Dollar-bill).
In tlie usual way of roasting you cau smell the Coffee a lon^f distance from
the mill while roasting, which proves that there is a very large percentage of
the aroma or flavor [est, which is the richest and best part of the Coffee.
This Aroma or Flavor I save.
I have patented a new Roasting irachino, whereby the Coil'ce is Hermetica!iy
(without change of air) Roasted, Ground, and Sealed in cans; consequently,
every particle of the Aroma is saved. My manner of roasting gives
the Coifee a rich, glossy appearance, produced by condensing the aroma.
This brings the Coffee to its highest state of perfection.
I can, with confidence, recommend this Coffee as being strictly pure,
and from fifteen to twenty per cent, stronger in Aroma than any other pure
Coffee. It needs only one trial to become permanently used in every family that
appreciates a good cup of Coffee.

Interesting to Housekeepers.
The TRiBUiiTE Almanac is designed to impart in--
telligeuce for the heneiit pf all its readers. Political
Statistics and Astronomical Calculations are not its
only features of interest. Its images represent the
genius and progress of our most enterijrising merchants
and manufacturers; therefore, Housekeepers
will find in it much that i)ertains to their interests.
Doubtlessly the majority of our Lady readers are
already acquainted with the excellent qualities of
Pyle's Saleeatus and O. K. Soap, for, like the Tei-
BUNE Almakac, they are to be seen in all parts of the
country. But to those who are not familiar with their
merits, and for the interest of all concerned, it is but
just to state that no one in his line of business has
fairly earned a more exalted reputation for the quality
of their i3roductions than the advertiser on the lower
half of this page.
A^rD
0. K. SOAP,
Are, unqualifiedly, the GREAT
HOUSEHOLD ARTICLES
OF AMERICA.
In the New England and middle States his Paleratus and Cream Tartar are tlie Standard
Brands, and celebrated for purity and liberality of weight. In NEW YOKK CITY and
STATE, PYLE'S 0. K. SOAP has pined preference over ail others, and J/ILLJONS OF
POUNDS are sold to the most intelligent classes.
We are permitted to state that our articles are used in the families of the Hon. Schuyler Colfax,
Hon. Horace Greeley, Rev. II. W. Beecher, Kev. Thomas Armitage, D. D., Kev. H. M. Field, of the
£vang6Ust, Henry' C. Bowen, Esq., of the Independent, and hundreds more too numerous to
mention. But if the economical will give them a trial. -we shall be content with theii- decision.
Ask your grocer for these articles, and see that our name is on each package.
JAMES PYLE, Manufacturer,
350, 352, 354 & 356 Washington St., cor. Franklin,

OTERESTING DOCUMENTS.
Politicians, Public Libraries, and all others interested, will be glad to
know that we have been enabled to reproduce the Tribune Almanac for
the years 1838 to 18G8, inclusive—excepting 1842, in which year none was
issued—comprehending the Politician's Register and the Whig Almanac,
containing Annual Election Returas by States and Counties, lists of Presidents.
Cabinets, Judges of the Supreme Court, Foreign Ministers, Govemors
of States, &c., with Summaries of Acts of Congress, and other
Political Statistics. The following introduction to the volumes, by Mr.
Greeley, more fully explains their scope
" In the Fall of 1S3T—years before the establishment of The Tribune—the October Elections
having developed a popular uprising against the Jackson-Van Buren dynasty which had for ten
years seemed invincible—I was moved to issue a Political Register for 18S8, intended mainly to
embody the Election Returns of that year, and compare them with those of some preceding year.
The reception of that little annual was such as to justify its reproduction for each succeeding year
—that of 1842 only excepted—until the issue for 1S6S will complete a series of thirty annual registers
of Election Returns, with other useful political and statistical matter, afforded for a trifle to
each reader, though the preparation of each issue now involves a total cost of more than $1,000.
This annual has been known successively as The Politician's Register, Whiy Almanac, and
Trtbune A Imanac, under which last name it has been issued for several years past. The stereotype
plates of the earlier issues having been consumed in the fire which destroyed The Tribune
building in 1845, it has for some years past been impossible to procure full sets of the work at any
rate, and the imperfect sets from "time to time thrown upon the market have commanded fabulous
prices.
" At last the new art of Photo-Lithography—as yet in its infancy, but giving promise of great
results in the future by no means distant—has rendered it possible to reproduce the old issues at a
moderate cost; and it was resolved that a limited number of full sets of the work—at least, so far
as its contents were not ephemeral—should be photo-lithographed and oflfered to the public. 1
Of
that resolve, the work herewith presented is the fruit. As it will be wholly unique, and of great
interest to historians and politicians, I trust that most of the sets may be promptly secured for
Public Libraries, where they may be preserved and remain generally accessible. Those who fail
'"
to obtain a set directly will probably miss their only opponunity. Horace Greeley."
The complete sets of the Register and Almanac are comprised in two
,
neatly bound volumes, aud are now ready. Price, for the two vols., $10.

Those wishing to secure these interesting Political Statistics should
;
send in their orders immediately, as only 1 ,000 copies are printed.
Each order must be accompanied with the cxi^a. Address

PORTER'S
CURATIVE COUGH BALSAM,
Price 25, 50, & 75 Cents per Bottle.
The Best, Cheapest, and most effectual fSciiiedy for Conglis, Colds,
&C.5 the TTorld has ever produced. Purely Vegetable, contains
no MINERAIiS, or other SEIiETERIOUS DRUGS.
The CURATIVE BALSAM Js Warranted, if used according to
Directions, to CUKE or RELIEVE in all cases,
COUGHS, COL.BS, CROUP, WHOOPING
COUGH, ASTHMA, AND ALLi AFFECTIONS
OF THE THROAT AND LUNGS.
Madame Zadoc Porter's Balsam is a purely Vegetable Expectorant,
prepared with great care and scientific skill, from a combination
of the best remedies the vegetable kingdom affords.
Its remedial qualities are based on its power to assist the healthy
and vigorous circulation of the BLOOD through the LUNGS.
It enlivens the muscles and assists the skin to perform the
duties of regulating the heat of the system, and in gently throwing
off the waste substance from the sui-face of the body.
It loosens the phlegm, induces free spitting, and idll be found
VERY AGREEABLE TO THE TASTE.
It is not a violent remedy, but emollient, warming, searching, and
effective roan be taken by the oldest person or youngest child.
If you have a Cold, if ever so slight, do not fail to give the Balsam
a trial, as the very low price at which it is sold brings it in
the reach of every one, that they may always keep it convenient
for use.
The timely use of a 25 cent bottle will often prove it to be worth
one hundred times its cost. The 75 cent bottle is more profitable
to the consumer, as it contains four times the quantity contained
in the small bottle.

Frojn S. D. C. Henriqper, Esq., Curacoa, South America.
TARRANT &. CO. Gentlemen : I am a resident of Curacoa, and have often been disposed to
write you concerning the real value of your SELTZER APERIENT, as a remedy for Indigestion
and Dyspepsia. I desire to express to you my sincere gratitude for the great benefit the SELTZER
has done my wife.
For four or five years my wife has been sadly afflicted with Dyspepsia, and after being under
the treatment of several doctors for two or three years, she was finally induced to seek the advice
of a learned physician. Dr. Cabrialis, of Venezuela, who immediately treated her with your EFFER-
VESCENT SELTZER APERIENT. She began to improve at once, and is now PERFECTLY WELL.
I feel it to be my duty, for the good of humanity, to make this statement, feeling that a medi
cine so valuable should be widely known.
Trusting you will give this publicity, and repeating my earnest gratitude and thanks, I am
Very respectfully yours,

From Dr. lW)ij Brockman, Oculist and Aurist, Nasliville,
Tenn.
Messrs. TARRANT & CO. Nashville, August 80, 1865.
Gentlemen : I take great pleasure in adding my favorable commendation to your list of testimonials
in reference to the character of your EFFERVESCENT SELTZER APERIENT. For five
years I have been in miserable health Dyspeptic, Irritable, and Jiervoii^, generally. I had
well nifrh exhausted the catalogue of remedies for my disease, when, by the merest accident, I
thought of your preparation. I had administered it thousands of times, but never taken it myself.
I tried it, and I am happy to say that my disease disappeared as if by magic ; life to me now is
sweet—I enjoy it ; before, I was disgusted with everything and everybody.
I also had my wife commence its use, and am happy to say, she alike is receiving great benefit.
I shall use it for the balance of my coming life, for I believe it to be the "Eureka " for Dyspepsia,
Constipation, and Torpidity of the Liver, that we are troubled so much with in this section
of country. Yours very respectfully, LEON BROCKMAN, Oculist and Aurist

PRINTING MACHINE.
This Press is especially designed to supply newspapers of moderate circulation with a cheap and
plain but serviceable Printing Machine, capable of doing also the ordinary Job Work of a country
office. It wUl print, without noise or jar, from 800 to 1000 impressions per hour, and can be run
either by hand or steam power.
The bed is carried by a truck baring large friction-rollers running on a railway (whence the
name of the Press), and is driven backward and forward by a crank motion, which stops and starts
it so gently that the bed-springs usually employed are not needed. The paper is fed through adjustable
guides to the under side of the impression cylinder, instead of the upper, and the feed-board
lifts the sheet up over the gmdes, and against the "cylinder, as the fingers of the latter clasp it.
After an Impression is given, the impression cylinder remains stationary while' the bed returns ; a
fresh sheet Is In the meantime laid on the feed-board, and the fingers close on it before the cylinder
starts again. As the cylinder-wheel gears directly into a rack on the side of the bed, excellent
register is obtained. There is also a pointing apparatus. The bed is provided with iron bearers,
to equalize the impression on the form. The Impression cylinder is never shifted to suit forms of
different sizes, but the forward edge of the type is always placed to the same line on the bed, and
the fingers and fly-tapes are as easily adjusted as on our ordinary Job Presses.
The ink fountain has the adjustable knife so necessary to job work. Th3 bed is 31 x 40 in. ;
a
form 273^ x 42 in. Is inked by one roller; and a form 23 x 42 in. by two rollers. The Press has our
self-acting sheet-flyer, and can be run easily and safely by one man or strong boy at the speed
mentioned above.
It occupies a space 5i x 10 feet, and can be worked in a room seven feet high. Weight, boxed,
6,600 lbs. Each machine is furnished with blankets, and extra stocks.
Illustrated Catalogues, with prices of this and other Machines, will be sent on application.

all Diseases of the Lungs.
10,000 Dollars Reward is offered for a better recipe. It contains no opium, calomel, or mineral
poison, and can be safely taken by the most delicate child.
Dr. Wm. Hall's Balsam for thb Lungs strikes at the root of the disease at once. The most
distressing cough is frequently relieved by a single dose, and broken up in a few hours' time. The
afnicted do not have to take bottle after bottle before they find whether this remedy will afford relief
or not.
This is KG PAREGORIC PREPARATION, but One which, if used in season, will save the lives of thousands.
It has effected cures in numerous cases where the most skillful physicians in this country
and in Europe have been employed, and have exercised their skill in vain. Cases which they have
pronounced incurable, and surrendered as hopeless beyond a doubt, leaving the patients
without a single ray to enliven them in their gloom, have been cured by Dr. Hall's Balsam for
the L/ungs, and the " victims of cosstiMPTioN " are now as vigorous and strong as the most robust
among us. And these cases are not isolated ones ; they are numerous, and can be pointed out in
every community where this most unrivaled remedy has been tested. Full directions will be found

testimony to the great virtues of the BLOOD AND LIVER SYRUP
"Inlhe Jledi'alJournal, May, lS59,vie published the formula for the preparation of SCO-
VILL'S EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA AND STILLINGIA, OR BLOOD AND LIVER SYRUP,
recommending it to physicians as an alterative. Soon afterward we received communications from
a number of eminent and successful practitioners informing us of the satisf ctory results which
had almost invariably followed its use. In the August number, l&OO, we republished this formula,
with communications from physicians and persons of respectability giving instances of its efiicacy
in relieving obstinate Chronic Diseases, since which time we have heard of hundreds of physicians
who have used this medicine in their practice, and it is conceded by all to be the best alterative in
use. Messrs. A. L. SCOVILL & CO., of this city, are largely engaged in the manufacture of this
compound, and have great facilities for purchasing pure ingredients ; are reliable men, and sell
nothing but the pure, unadulterated article.

Mishler^s Celebrated Herb Bitters.
MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS is not a nostrum designed to temporarily excite Uie nerves or
tickle the palate, but is scientifically compounded according to the prescribed modes of the Pharmacopoeia,
as practiced by every chemist and skilled apothecary, or observed by every educated
physician.
It has more Voluntary Testimony of its great Curative Qualities
than
ANY OTHER BITTERS.
The proprietors of MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS have more genuine certificates of real cures
effected solely by its use, than are owned by all the other Patent Medicine Manufacturers in the United
States. They have on file, at their Medical Institute, thousands of testimonials from parties in all
classes of life, rich and poor, educated and illiterate, written in every conceivable style, manner
and language, but all attesting to the one great fact that Mishler's Herb Bitters cured them of
disease when every other remedy failed. Below we give a few certificates lately received from the
city of Pittsburg, the headquarters of one of the most extensive Bitters manufactory in the country,
at which place MishJer's Herb Bitters has effected more cures, received more substantial encouragement,
and to-day enjoys more popular favor among the people, than any other medicine in the
country.
TRUSTWORTHY CERTIFICATES.
Messrs. S. B. Hartman & Co.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 8th, 186T.
Gents,—I hereby certify that four bottles of Mishler's Herb Bitters have effectually and permanently
cured me of an inveterate cutaneous disease, which had previously resisted the treatment
of several of the most eminent physicians of this city. It is a powerful Blood Purifier and an e.xcellent
tonic. Respectfully, WM. J. A. WATERS,
Formerly teacher in the Parochial Schools of Saint Dominick's and Saint Aloysius Parishes,
and late of Trinity Church, Georgetown, D. C.
Messrs. S. B. Hartman & Co.
Gentlemen,—I have been suffering with Chronic Dyspepsia for about twelve years, in its worst
form. I have tried one remedy after another, and without any but temporary relief. I have been
using Mishler's Herb Bitters regularly for about si.x weeks. I feel satisfied that they have cured
me entirely. I can eat whatever my appetite craves, without any unpleasant feelings afterwards.
I really think I am a changed man, altogether owing to the efficacy of Mishler's Herb Bitters.
Those suffering with the same disease. Dyspepsia, are at liberty to call on me at any time at my
place of business, Slack & Sholes' Planing Mills, Barbury Street, Pittsburg. ALFRED SLACK.
Read what Dr. Bissel, one of the best physicians in the country, and the Health Officer of New
York, says of these Bitters
Genesee, Livingston Co., N. T., December 13th, 1866.
G. S. ROWDOTHAM :
Bear Si?-,—You wrote me last April, and sent me a dozen bottles of Mishler's Herb Bitters,
with a request that I would use them on board the Cholera Hospital in the harbor of New York, on
which I was the physician in charge. I thank you for your kind letter, as well as for the Bitters,
and beg leave to say that I used them, and found them an excellent Tonic for convalescents from
Cholera and Typhoid Fever. A lady (to whom I gave a bottle) wishes me to write to you for half
a dozen bottles. Please send me one dozen of the Bitters by express, and send bill for the same,
and I will remit the amount.
Very respectfully yours, D. H. BISSEL,
Physician, Cholera Hospital, New Yorit Bay.
Dr. Lane, of Chicago, a physician of twenty-five years' practice, writes as follows
Dr. B. MiSHLER
Dear Sir,—I was called in to see a case of inflammation of the kidneys of four months'
standing, that had been treated by one of the best physicians. From the symptoms, I saw at once
that a preparation like your Bitters should be taken, and I prescribed it, and found it had the
desired effect. The patient had not been about for some time, but after a few days' use of the
Bitters she was able to walk about, and is doing her own housework, with a sure prospect of regaining
her usual health. You will please send me a dozen bottles of your Bitters, as I intend using it
constantly in my practice in the future.

EXTRACT FROM DR. RADWAY'S MEDICAL DIARY.
The subject of the above likeness is at present one of the most intelligent, brilliant, and beautiful
ladies of this metropolis, in the full enjoyment of redolent health, -vigorous life and strength,
dispensing charity to the needy, consolation and attendance to the sick, devoting her leisure hours
to assisting the poor and distressed, and contributing to their necessities.
This lady was rescued from a miserable existence through the instrumentality of Dr. Radway's
Resolvent. Two years since, she was an object of pity, and almost aversion ; her personal appearance
repulsive, her blood impregnated with corruption, gradually consuming her vitality. Infirm,
wretched, and almost hopeless, discharging ulcers on her neck, her sidn covered with sores, pustules,
tetters, insects under the cuticle in the form of black spots, her head divested of hair, her
scalp with ridges of dry scabs, strumous discharges of offensive matter from her ears, her arms
covered with eruptions, her hand swollen and incrusted, her nails worn off, her strength wasted by
continued leuconhea discharges, and pain and inflammation in the kidneys, bladder, and uterus.
JIuch of her sufferings were undoubtedly augmented by improper treatment. Mercury, Iron,
Potash, Sarsaparilla, Sulphuric Acid, Unguents, Lotions, were tried: l^lhs of Sulphur, Mercury,
and, in fact, every remedial agent known were used, until her strengt^'as exhausted. Such was
her condition in the early part of 1866, when she commenced the use of Radway's Resolvent (aided
with Radway's Pills, to augment the expulsion of the acrid and corrupt humors through the bowels,
sweat and urincl. She commenced talung two teaspoonfuls of the Resolvent three times per day,
and from two to four fills every other night
FIRST BOTTLE.—At the end of the first bottle, her strength, appetite, and spirits were improved,
and the small pimples, blotches, and pustules disappeared. Applying the Resolvent over the surface,
with a fine sponge, relieved the inflammation and itching, and sensed as a reliable antiseptic
In cleansing and purifying the putrid flesh.
SECOND BOTTLE.—At the end of the second bottle, signs of improvement in the discharges
from the uterus, inflammation, pain and swelling abated, the] skin greatly improving, the eyes
growing brighter, strengvL and appetite increasing.
TIIIRD BOTTLE.—Dry scabs on the scalp, and sores on the arms, and incrusted scales on the
hands gradually disappearing, leucon-hea greatly lessened, w'ater becoming clear, and kidneys and
bladder improved.
FIFTH BOTTLE.—Finger nails growing, hands and arms clear and smooth, hair growing on
the scalp, bowels regular, and sldn free from irritation, face clear of sores.
SIXTH AND SEVENTH BOTTLES.—Ulcer on the neck greatly improved, leucorrhea discharges
stopped, mensti-uation regular, pain of the abdomen, irritation in the uterus, bladder, and kidneys
stopped, face clear of all spots, hair covering the scalp, great Increase of flesh, spirits buoyant, step
elastic, and appetite good.
NINTH BOTTLE.—All signs of disease gradually disappearing, frequent rides in the Park,
great improvement in personal appearance, hair continuing to grow rapidly, skin smooth and clear,
and the ulcer in the neck healed.
T'WELFTH BOTTLE.—Continuing the Resolvent after all eruptions had disappeared, she
gained in flesh and personal beauty. No more trouble in the uterus, kidneys, etc. Bowels regular,
digestive organs regular, blood pure, her nails perfect, hair growing luxuriant, spirits excellent,
she exhibited to her friends a picture of health and beauty.
For six months after the use of the twelfth bottle, she continued taking three teaspoonfuls of the
Resolvent per day, and two of the Pills three times a week. On the — day of October, she presented
us with her photograph (as above) of her present appearance, with permission to publish the
course of treatment and cure, but requested us to withhold her name.
In this wonderful cure a lesson may be learned in regard to the true means of securing personal
beauty. Good, pure, rich blood will make healthy fiber and clear skin, beautiful complexion, and
luxuriant hair. Cosmetic powders, painting the sldn with brushes, applying greasy substances
and alcoholic lotions to the hair, is injurious. The paint, powder, &c. , clogs up the pores, obstructs
the free escape of sweat and insensible perspiration, thus preventing the absorption of oxygen in
^he atmospheric air, so essential for the vitality and purification of the blood and fluids of the skin,
Ac. Pure blood is secured by the Resolvent, and all who use this medicine will ergoy the possession
of its blessings.

My Dear Sir : For many years past I have been a suffering invalid. About a year ago my
troubles came to a crisis, and my doctor said I must die. I had fits often, and my stomach and
digestive organs were so paralyzed that the lightest food would be thrown off undigested, even
after being down twelve hours. I wasted away almost to a shadow, and every day expected that
death would relieve my sufferings. The doctors had abandoned my case, and my mother determined
to try Brandreth's PiUs.
She first gave me two, which I kept down eight hours. I then vomited them up entirely undissolved.
My mother then powdered four pills and gave them to me in molasses. These stayed
down and acted slightly. I continued daily to take them in this way for a month, and each day
gradually gained. My appetite returned with full powers of digestion. For the past six months I
have daily increased in flesh and strength, and am now a stout, healthy girl.
Hoping my case will induce others suffering from sickness to try the virtues of Brandreth's
Pills, I remain yours truly,

" Although a stranger to the doctor, please give him my. compliments, and say to him that one
quarter gross of BRANDRETH'S PILLS did more good in preservitg good health on my plantation
this year than THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS EXPENDED IN DOCTORS' BILLS did last year.
I have no sickness this year worth mentioning, while all my neighbors have considerable. I have
given out a few boxes of pills to some of my neighbors, who invariably report good success.

years, can testify to their wonderful curative qualities upon Mr. Dimon, whom their use cured of
Tape Worm when every known remedy had failed to cure.

Table of Sixty-one Bright Stars.
To ascertain when any Star or constellation found in the following Table will be on the upper
meridian J arfcZ the numbers opposite in the left-hand column of figures to the time of " Sidereal
Noon " found in the calendar pages. For the rising of a Star, subtract the number opposite in the
right-hand column of figures from its meridian passage. For the setting of a star, iidd the same
to its meridiaa passage. Those marked ( ) revolve in a circle of perpetual apparition,
do not rise or set north of the latitude of New York (40' 42' 40 ), for which latitude the semidiurnal
arcs are calculated. The civil day begins at midnight, and consequently 24 hours after
midnight, or 12 hours from noon, is niominff of the succeeding day ; and more than 24 hours
from noon, is ecening of the next day. This table is arranged in the order of culmination.
Surveyors and Civil Engineers may obtain the variation of the magnetic needle
by observations on the Pole Star when upon the meridian, or when at its greatest elongation east or
west. Polaris and other stars pass the lower meridian llh. 58ra. after their upper transit. To the
time of upper transit of Polaris, add 5h. 54m. and it gives the time of greatest uejstern elongation.
If the 5h. 54m. be subtracted from the time of upper transit, it will give the time of greatest eastern
elongation. Observations made at the time of greatest elongation are less liable to error than
those made at the time of transit. The mean distance of Polaris from the pole this year is 1° 23'
20.47''. To find its azimuth for any latitude, take from 18.384543 the logarithmic cosine of the
latitude, and the remainder is the logarithmic sine of the azimuth.

of the Constitution and laws of the United
States duly enacted, as commander-in-chief
of the army of the United States, did bring before
himself then and there AVilliam H. Emory,
a major-general by brevet in the army of the
United States, actually in command of the Department
of Washington and the military forces
thereof, and did then and there, as such commander-in-chief,
declare to and instruct said
Emory that part of a law of the United States,
passed March 2, 1867, entitled " An act making
appropriations for the support of the army for
the year ending June 30, 1868, and for other purposes,"
especially the second section thereof,
which provided, among other things,that," all orders
and instructions relating to military operations
issued by the President or Secretary of War
shall be issued through the General of the army,
and in case of his inability through the next in
rank," was unconstitutional, and in contravention
of the commission of said Emory, and
which said provision of law had been theretofore
duly and legally promulgated by General
Order for the government and direction of the
army of the United States, as the said Andrew
Johnson then and there well knew, with intent
thereby to induce said Emory, in his official capacity
as commander of the department of Washington,
to violate the provisions of said act, and
to take and receive, act upon, and obey such orders
as he, the said Andrew Johnson, might
make and give, and which should not be issued
through the General of the army of the United
States, according to the provisions of said act,
and with the further intent thereby to enable
him, the said Andrew Johnson, to prevent the
execution of the act entitled " An act regulating
the tenure of certain civil offices," passed March
2, 1867, and to unlawfully prevent Edwin M.
Stanton, then being Secretary for the Department
of War, from holding said office and discharging
the duties thereof, whereby said Andrew
Johnson, President of the United States,
did then and there commit and was guilty of a
high misdemeanor in office.
And the House of Representatives, by protestation,
saving to themselves the liberty of exhibiting
at any time hereafter any further articles
or other accusation, or impeachment against
the said Andrew Johnson, President of the United
States, and also of replying to his answers which
he shall make unto the articles herein preferred
against him, and of offering proof to the same,
and every part thereof, and to all and every
other article, accusation, or impeachment which
shall be exhibited by them, as the case f hall require,
DO DEMAND that the said Andrew Johnson
may be put to answer the high crimes and misdemeanors
to office herein charged against him,

and judgments may be thereupon had and given

of the United States, unmindful of the high
duties of his office and the dignity and proprieties
thereof, and of the harmony and courtesies
which ought to exist and be maintained between
the executive and legislative branches of the
government of the United States, designing and
intending to set aside the rightful authority and
powers of Congress, did attempt to bring into
disgrace, ridicule, hatred, contempt and reproach
the Congress of the United States, and the several
branches thereof, to impair and destroy the
regard and respect of all the good people of the
United States for the Congress and legislative
power thereof (which all officers of the government
ought inviolably to preserve and maintain),
and to excite the odium and resentment of all
the good people of the United States against Congress
and the laws by it duly and constitutionally
enacted ; and in pursuance of his said design
and intent, openly and publicly, and before
divers assemblages of the citizens of the United
States convened in divers parts thereof to meet

PRESIDENT JOHNSON'S ANSWER.
Messrs. Curtis, Stanbery, and Evarts, read the
President's answers to the several articles of
impeachment. We cannot give room to the
text ; it is enough to say that Mr. Johnson made
general and speclflc denial of each and every allegation,
and in doing so he repeated once more
his veto of the Tenure of Office bill.

make the following declaration of principles
1. AVe congratulate the country on the assured
success of the reconstruction policy of Congress,
as evidenced by the adoption, in the majority of
the States lately in rebellion, of constitutions
securing equal civil and political rights to all
and it is the duty of the government to sustain
those institutions and to prevent the people of
such States from being remitted to a state of anarchy.
2. The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage
to all loyal men at the South was demanded by
every consideration of public safety, of gratitude,
and of justice, and must be maintained;
while the question of suffrage in all the loyal
States proj)erly belongs to the people of those
States.
3. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a
national crime ; and the national honor requires

but the spirit of the laws under which it was
contracted.
4. It is due to the labor of the nation that
taxatfon should be equalized, and reduced as
rapidly as the national faith will permit.
5. The national debt, contracted as it has
been for the preservation of the Union for all
time to come, should be extended over a fair
period for redemption ; and it is the duty of
Congress to reduce the rate of interest thereon,
whenever it can be honestly done.
6. That the best policy to diminish our burden
of debt is to so improve our credit that capitalists
will seek to loan us money at lower rates of
interest than we now pay, and must continue to
pay so long as repudiation, partial or total, open
or covert, is threatened or suspected.
7. The Government of the United States should
be administered with the strictest economy ; and
the corruptions which have been so shamefully
nursed and fostered by Andrew Johnson call
loudly for radical reform.
8. We profoundly deplore the untimely and
tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, and regret the
accession to the Presidency of Andrew Johnson,
who has acted treacherously to the people who
elected him and the cause he was pledged to
support; who has usurped high legislative and
judicial functions; who has refused to execute
the laws ; who has used his high office to induce
other officers to ignore and ^iolate the laws
who has employed his executive powers to render
insecure the property, the peace, liberty and
life, of the citizen ; who has abused the pardoning
power; who has denounced the national
legislature as unconstitutional ; who has persistently
and corruptly resisted, by every means
in his power, every proper attempt at the reconstruction

GOA\ SEYMOUR'S LETTER OF ACCEPT-
ANCE.
Utica, August 4, 1808.
Gentlemen : When, in the city of New York,
on the 11th of July, in the presence of a vast
multitude, on behalf of the National Democratic
Convention, you tendered to me its unanimous
nomination as their candidate for the ofSce of
President of the United States, I stated I bad
" no words adequate to express my gratitude for
the good will and kindness which that body had
shown to me. Its nomination was unsought and
It was my ambition to take an
active part, from which I am now excluded, in
the great struggle going on for the restoration of
good government, of peace and prosperity to our
country. But I have been caught up by the
tide which is bearing us on to a great
political change, and I find myself unable to resist
its pressure.
" You have also given to me a copy of the resolutions
put forth by the Convention, showing
its position upon all the great questions which
now agitate the country. As the presiding officer
of that Convention, I am familiar with
their scope and import ; as one of its members,
I am a party to their terms. They are in accord
with my views, and I stand upon them in
the contest upon which we are now entering, and
I shall strive to carry them out in future, wherever
I may be placed, in public or private life."
I then stated that I would send you these
words of acceptance in a letter, as is the customary
form. I see no reason, upon reflection, to
change or qualify the terms of my approval of
the resolutions of the Convention.
I have delayed the more formal act of communicating
to you in writing what I thus publicly
said, for the purpose of seeing what light the
action of Congress would throw upon the interests
of the country. Its acts since the adjournment
of the Convention show an alarm lest a
change of political power will give to the people
what they ought to have, a clear statement of
what has been done with the money drawn from
them during the past eight years. Thoughtful
men feel that there have been wrongs in the
financial management which have been kept
from the public knowledge.
The congressional party has not only allied
itself with military power, which is to be brought
to bear directly upon the elections in many
States, but it also holds itself in perpetual session,
with the avowed purpose of making such
laws as it shall see fit, in view of the elections
which will take place within a few weeks. It
did not, therefore, adjourn, but took a recess, to
meet again if its partisan interests shall demand
its reassembling.
Never before in the history of our country has
Congress thus taken a menacing attitude toward
its electors. Under its influence some of the
States organized by its agents are proposing to
deprive the people of the right to vote lor Presidential
electors, and the first bold steps are taken
to destroy the rights of suffrage. It is not
strange, therefore, that thoughtful men see in
such action the proof that there is. with those
who shape the policy of the Republican party,
motives stronger and deeper than the mere wish
to hold political power ; that there is a dread of
some exposure which drives them on to acts so
desperate and so impolitic.
Many of the ablest leaders and journals of the
Republican party have openly deplored the violence
of congressional action, and its tendency
to keep up discord in our country. The great
interests of our Union demand peace, order, and
a return to those industrial pursuits without
which we cannot maintain the faith or honor of
our Government. The minds of business men
are perplexed by uncertainties. The hours of
toil of our laborers are lengthened by the costs
of living made by the direct and indirect exactions
of Government. Our people are harassed
by the heavy and frequent demands of the tax
gatherer.
Without distinction of party, there is a strong
feeling in favor of that line of action which
shall restore order and confidence, and shall lift
off the burdens which now hinder f.nd vex the
industry of the country. Yet at this moment
those in power have thrown into the senate
chamber and congressional hall new elements of
discord and violence. Men have been admitted
as representatives of some of the Southern
States, with the declaration upon their lips that
they cannot live in the States they claim ta represent
without military protection.
These men are to make laws for the North as
well as the South. These men, who, a few days
since, were seeking as suppliants that Congress
would give them power within their respective
States, are to day the masters and controllers of
the actions of those bodies. Entering them with
minds filled with passions, their first demands
have been that Congress shall look upon the
States from which they come as in conditions of
civil war ; that the majority of the population.s,
embracing their intelligence, shall be treated as

j
THE TRIBUNE ALSIANAC FOR 1869.
public enemies; that military forces shall be
kept up at the cost of the people of the North,
and that there shall be no peace and order at the
South save that which is made by arbitrary
power.
Every Intelligent man knows that these men
owe their seats in Congress to the disorder in the
South ; every man knows that they not only owe
their present positions to disorder, but that everj'
motive springing from the love of power, of
gain, of a desire for vengeance, prompts them to
keep the South in anarchy. "WTiile that exists,
they are independent of the wills or wishes of
their fellow-citizens. While confusion reigns,
they are the dispensers of the profits and the
honors which grow out of a government of mere
force. These men are now placed in positions
where they can not only urge their views of policy,
but where they can enforce them.
When others shall be admitted in this manner
from the remaining Southern States, although
they will have in truth no constituents, they will
have more power in the Senate than a majority
of the people of this Union living in nine of the
great States. In vain the wisest members of the
Republican party protested against the policy
that led to this result.
While the chiefs of the late rebellion have
Bubmitted to the results of the war, and are now
quietly engaged in useful pursuits for the support
of themselves and their families, and are
trying by the force of their example to lead
back the people of the South to the order and industry
not only essential to their well-being, but
to the greatness and prosperity of our common
country, we see that those who, without^ ability
or influence, have been thrown by the agitations
of civil convulsion into positions of honor and
profit, are striving to keep alive the passions to
which they owe their elevation. And they clamorously
insist that they are the only friends of
our Union—a Union that can only have a sure
foundation In fraternal regard, and a common
desire to promote the peace, the order, and the States can fail to be impressed with the cares

No man can rightfully enter upon the duties

Executive, to trammel the judiciary, and to carry
out the views of the most unwise and violent
of its members.
When this state of things exists in any party,
it has ever been found that the sober judgments
of its ablest leaders do not control. There is
hardly an able man who helped to build up the
Republican organization who has not within the
past three years warned it against its excesses,
who has not been borne down and forced to give
up his convictions of what the interests of the
country called for ; or, if too patriotic to do this,
who has not been driven from its ranks. If this
has been the case heretofore, what will be its action
now, with this new infusion of men who,
without a decent respect for the views of those
who had just given them their positions, begin
their legislative career with calls for arms, with
demands that their States shall bo regarded as
in a condition of civil war, and with a declaration
that they are ready and anxious to degrade
the President of the United States whenever
>
they can persuade or force Congress to bring
forward new articles of impeachment?
The Republican party, as well as we, are interested
in putting some check upon this violence.
It must be clear to every thinking man
that a division of political power tends to check
the violence of party action, and to assure the
peace and good order of society. The election
of a Democratic Executive and a majority of
Democratic members to the House of Representatives
would not give to that party organization
the power to make sudden or violent changes,
but it would serve to check those extreme measures
which have been deplored by the best men
of both political organizations. The result
would most certainly lead to that peaceful restoration
of the Union and re-establishment of
fraternal relationship which the country desires.
I am sure that the best men of the Republican
party deplore as deeply as I do the spirit of violence
shown by those recently admitted to seats
in Congress from the South. The condition of
civil war which they contemplate, must be abhorrent
to every right-thinking man.
I have no mere personal wishes which mislead
my judgment in regard to the pendmg election.

executing the will of the people condemning the
reconstruction acts, already pronounced in the
elections of last year, and which will, I am convinced,
be still more emphatically expressed by
the election of the Democratic candidate as the
President of the United States, are denounced as
revolutionists by the partisans of this vindictive
Congress. Negro suffrage, which the popular
vote of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Blichigan, Connecticut, and other States
have condemned as expressly against the letter
of the Constitution, must stand, because their
Senators and Representatives have willed it. If
the people shall again condemn these atrocious
measures by the election of the Democratic candidate
for President, they must not be disturbed,
although decided to be unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court, and although the President is
sworn to maintain and support the Constitution.
The will of a fraction of a Congress, re.nforced
with its partisan emissaries sent to the South
and supported there by the soldiery, must stand
against the will of the people and the decision of
the Supreme Court, and the solemn oath of the
President to maintain and support the Constitution.
It is revolutionary to execute the will of the
people ! It is revolutionary to execute the judgment
of the Supreme Court ! It is revolutionary
in the President to keep inviolate his oath to
sustain the Constitution ! This false constr uction
of the vital principle of our government is the
contest.
The reconstruction policy of the Radicals will
be complete before the next election ; the States
so long excluded will have been admitted, negro
established, and the carpet-baggers installed
suffrage
in their seats in both branches of Con-
gress. There is no possibility of changing the
political character of the Senate, even if the
Democrats should elect their President and a
majority of the popular branch of Congress. We
cannot, therefore, undo the Radical plan of reconstruction
by congressional action : the Senate
will continue a bar to its repeal. Must we
submit to it? How can it be overthrown? It
can only be overthrown by the authority of the
Executive, who is sworn to maintain the Constitution,
and who wUl fail to do his duty if he allows
the Constitution to perish under a series of
congressional enactments which are in palpable
violation of the fundamental principles.
If the President elected by the Democracy enforces
or permits others to enforce these reconstruction
acts, the Radicals, by the accession of
twenty spurious Senators and fifty Representatives,
will control both branches of Congress,
and his administration will be as powerless as
the present one of Mr. Johnson.
There is but one way to restore the government
and the Constitution, and that is for the
President elect to declare these acts null and
void, compel the army to undo its usurpations at
1
the South, disperse the carpet-bag State governments,
allow the white people to reorganize their
own governments, and elect Senators and Representatives.

by the white people of the South, and, with the

HORACE GREELEY ON POLITICAL ECONOMY.''
GREELEY'S HISTORY OF THE "WAR.
Mr. Greeley purposes to -write, during the year 1869, an elementary -n-ork on
Political Economy, wherein the policy of Prote'etion to Home Industry will be explained
and vindicated. This work will first be given to the public through suc-
issues of The Xew York Tribune, and will appear in all its editions
Daily, Semi-Weekly, and Weekly. The work will contain tlie best results of tho
observations and study of a lifetime, and, as the question of Protection to American
Industry concerns our entire people, it will be looked for with great interest.
In addition to this work by Mr. Greeley, The Tridi'NE has engaged George
Geddes, one of the best and most successful farmers in the conntrj', and other
able ^^Titers on Agricultural subjects, to -nTite regularly for its columns. The
American Institute Farmers' Club will continue to be reported in The Semi-
Weekly and Weekly Tribi-ne. Ko farmer who desires to till the soil with profit,
and to know the progress constantly made in the science of his calling, can afford to
neglect the advantages of a newspaper like The Weekly Tribute, especially when
it unites Avith agriculture other features of interest and profit. TheWeekly Tribi-xe
contains a summary of all that appears in The Daily and Semi-Weekly editions,
while in addition it is made to address itself to the wants of the great farming
class. Reviews of new publications, and of what is new in music and the line
arts ; letters from difierent parts of the world— some of them of rare interest to
the farmer, as showing the progress of agriculture in other countries; editorial
essays on all topics of home and foreign interest, together with full and carefully
reports of the markets, will be furni.4ied from week to week, and at a
lower price than that of any other newspaper in America. By pursuing this policy
The Weekly Tribune has attained its present commanding influence and circulation,
and we enter upon the new year with an assurance to our readers that no
and no expense will be spared to give it still greater usefulness and power,
and to make it a jct more welcome visitor to every fireside in the land.
GREELEY'S HISTORY OF THE WAR.
The Tribi-ne also proposes to send "The American Conflict," by Horace
Greeley, in 2 vols, of 648 and ^82 pages respectively, to clubs on terms stated
below. This history has received from all quarters the highest commendations
accuracy of statement and fullness of detail. It is substantially bomid, and
must be deemed a valuable addition to any librarj-. These volumes should be
placed in every school district library in the land, and each school contains
scholars who can, with a few hours of attention, raise a Tribune Club and secure
the History. Almost any one who wishes can now obtain it by giving a few
hours to procuring subscriptions for The Tribi^xe among his friends and neighbors,
and we hope many Mill be incited to do so. The work will be promptly
forwarded, prepaid, by express or by mail, on receipt of the required subscriptions.

THE DYING BODY SUPPLIED WITH THE VIGOR OF LIFE, THROUGH
DR. RADWAY'S SARSAPARILIIAN RESOLVENT.
Scrofula, Consi'.mption, Syphilis, uncured and badly treated Venereal in its many forms.
Glandular disease, Ulcers in the Throat, Mouth, Tumors, Nodes in the Glands and other parts

diseases, Eruptions, Fever Sores, Scald Head, King Worms, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Acne,
Black Spots, Worms in the Flesh, Tumors, Cance'S in the Womb and all weakening and painful
discharges, Night Sweats, loss of Sperm and all wa?les of tlie life principle, are within the
curative ranc-e of this wonder of Modern Chemistry, and a few days' u-e will prove to any person
using it for either of these forms of disease, its potent power to cure them.
If the patient, daily becoming reduced by the wastes and decomposition Ihnt is continually
progressing, succeeds in arresting these wastes, and repairs the same with new material made
from healthy blood, and this the Sarsapariillan will, and does secure, a cure is certain,
for when once this remedy commences its work of purification, and succeeds in diminishing the i
loss of wastes, its repairs will be rapid, and every day the patient will feel himself growing
