Diar EaolJ:
Summer is a delightful, or otherwise warm
season.
Mature bolts her loveliest,: and does her
prettiest about this time, and everything is
erene.
June ist very enchanting month.
It bribgs out strawberries and low necked
dresses, ice cream and perspiration. Kd
riches the tuskers of fans and enables pro
prietors of soda water stands to keep fast
horses.
. Strawberry festivals are not over yet.
There are lots of strawberries and pretty
waiter girls left.
I'retty waiter girls you know are contrary
to set ot Legislature.
I asked my legal friend D. Witt about it.
He says that taken with strawberries pretty
waiter girls are a moral entertainment. '
I merely wanted to know, you know, to
satisfy my conscientious scruples.
Since then I have taken them without
hesitation.-"- -
They sgree with me.
That is the strawberries
I also agree with the girls.
They always give me an extra strawberry
and two spoons with my ice oream.
Those spoon are quite a good thing in
Cutlery.
They have such a cap ital edge.
You can cut bread and butter or open
oysters with thrm.
I took one home the other night to shave
with-
I should like to get a table tpoon of the
same variety for a carving knife.
By way of variety I went to a
tic NIC
this week.
Pic-nics, like strawberry festivals, belong
to the church service.
They are a light moral entertainment.
They are mostly held in groves.
A grove consists of several trees, a grass
plot, a platform for the music and a shanty
where they sell lager.
"There arc numerous groves lying around
about.
They are generally built near railroads
for the convenience of the public and the
profit of the railroad companies. .
You take your rations to a pic-nic in a
market basket.
A pic-nic ration consists of five sand
wiches, a hunk of pound cake, a huckle
berry pic, two lemons, a pound of cherries,
a box of sardines, two boiled eggs and a
pickle.
The rest of the outfit consists of sixty
five Sunday-school teachers, twenty middle
nged ladies, some nice young men, a domi
nie or two, several hundred children and a
brass bund.
(Jet pncki:d in a car like a box of oranges,
and smothered in white muslin until you pet
to the grove, where you will arrive in a statu
of perspiration und bliss.
Don't be particular about j'our own bas
ket. Baskets usually get mixed.
Take the biggest one you tan gety The
ladie always fill their baskets... '
Whfn you get in the grove, you are ex
pected to declare ills the delightf'ulust spot
you ever saw.
. Select a pretty teacher, ' and explore the
shadiest recesses, and pour out your soul.
When it is all poured out, ask the young
lady if she wont takes swing.
She will.'
Sawyer has sung of "Swinging in the
Lane," but I don't thitk he ever tried
swinging in a grove.
I did.
I was kept at it for three hours and a
quarter, swinging ail the girls that cauie
along. : ., .
It is splendid exercise, beats Burnham's
gyi'unrsium, double trapeze and all. I
hdve'nt got over it yet. . m i
An old lady then proposed that I should
climb an apple tree to extricate her Johnny,
wno naa got rits trousers involved in a
branch about thirty feet up, and was hunj
up like a sign of the golden fleece.
lold the old lady to wait till . lie cot noe
and he'd drop of his own accord.

restoreu cue aspiring youm to tae lona em-;

Whereupon she spaiikcd him for tearing
his trousers. , ' ', ,;' .
.Which served hrni right.
We then took dinner.
Pretty teacher suread her Docket land-
kerchief for a table cloth und unpacked the
rations. ; ;. ' J.'
The rations had got somewhat mixed; r
The saidine box had busted and "struck
i!e." :j The huckleberry pie had amalgama
ted with the pickle, and the cherries had
resolved themselves into jam. -But
it was so cliarminc to eat your dinner"
on the grass beneath tlio umbrageous shade
of the noble trees. -
So the pretty teacher observed as I was
squeezing leinong.iii a . dinner kettle to make
the lestive beverage, which neither cheers
nor inebriates, , but . frequently stomach
aches. "
I was startled by a piercing shriek from
the pretty teacher, and I dropped a hair
lemon partly squeezed and flew to the res
cue.
A "horrid bug descended from the um
brageous foliage previously, mentioned and
hid alighted on her alabaster neck.
I dispatched the creature and we proceed
ed to despatch our repast.- a
But insect horrors had hot ended. ; '

Groves are not immediately improved by
showers, and the grass being wet and the
leaves dropping, our festivities were dam
pened. We began to , experience the remorse
which follows dissipation.
Pretty teacher was in tears; she had ru
ined her dress by accidentally sitting down
in a currant pie.
The ice cream had all melted, the straw
berries were all gone.
We started in a wilted procession for th?
cars.
The conductor being a liberal man gave
us a larger lease of pleasure than we bar
gained for and kept us waiting au hour.
When I got home Mrs. O'Lanua wanted
to know if I'd been to a funeraL 1 went
to bed early and dreamed all night that I
was struggling desperately with a gigantic
spider, who had carried ofT the pretty teach
er and hung her up by her waterfall on the
topmost limb of a big tree.
Some peoele like pic-nics, others like
strawberry festivals but for my part give
me liberty or give me death.
Yours Perepiringly,
Court O'Lanus.
P. S. A young man who is taking the
census called at my house yesterday.
I was'nt at heme. But Mrs. O'Lanus
was. As she knows more about tho family
than I do, it was all the same.
The first thing he wanted to know was,
how many times she had been a widow?
I never thought of asking her that ques
tiou myself, and I feel much interest in her
answer. I wish you would get me nn ad
vanced copy of the census returns so that I
can find out what the said.

Speech or Jonathan Q. Smith
Delivered at the State Conven
tion, June 21st,
Deer Pbesadunt: I rise up two speak
wurds ov wixduin two this heer convention.
We must regulate matters so that we ken
keap the onuses in our hands. We hav
awl got ritch by holden oflVs,nd must keap
the offeses for our childer and our childer's
childer two get retch ov too. In the loyul
Stait ov Iowa, where oar bretherin hav awl
there oan wa, tha ken boldly deeluir thure
painsipels ; but in Ohio thaae is danger ov
the Copperhcds a beaten us. It tharefore
beknms us two be as wise as Copperheds or
enny uther sarpents. In Iowa our brether
in kums square out in favor ov given the
Five An e k'l i ov Afrik-n desent the write
to voat and ofles ; but in this Stait it wood
not be sail' for us to taik sioh hy grounds.
Uinerul Steadmon kum nut in a speech for
this glorious prinsipcl, but it dun him no,
good, and sarved as a warner two us two
bea kcerful.
I think our best plan wood bea twomaik
a platform what don't say not hen in par
tickler, and two nomenate kandidaits what
will be sound on the goos. I think this
plan will git the moust voats, and voatsair
whot we wont. If we nomenate and elect
men known two bea sound on the rights ov
the frea Amerikene of Afrikan desent, and
elect a legislator that we know will due the
rite thing on this question, it doant maik
enny difference whether it is in our plat
form or not. We want results rether than
proteshens. The eiecshun ov one man in
favor ov given rights two the frea Ameri
keiM ov Afrikan desent wiil bea ov moar
pructikal benefit than as menny resolushcns
as cood be plastered on the South side of
the Stait Hous.
- Here the committee on resolutions made
a report, which was read.
Mr. Smith resumed his remarks:
Mr. Presadunt: Them resalushens jist
soots me.. The furst one is a proper tribute
ov respect two our departed arid lamented
President, and is a hint two Andy Johnsen
two due as he dun, so that when the mourn
ful proseshen (oilers him two the boan yard
our conventions wiil pass resolushens ov re
sp'ct. . - 1
The second resalushun is good. It saft
sod.lers Andy. Suft-sodder is a great insti-tu.-heu.
You ken git men that way when
we kitnt git 1 hem no uther way. Andy is
shaky, lie luiint done the clean thing with
us by a long shot. He is lbrcen the loyal
and intelligent contrabands to work for a
liven instead ov fecden them on government
rations, lie denies them the right to voat
in the rebel Staits and leaves the reorgan'.
zashon ov them Staits two the rebels liven
therein, lie is iiboli.-hen offeses and turnen
loyal men out on the kold charities ov a
hartless world. Yet, nntwithstandun, nev
vertheless, we must saf't-sodder Andy be
knusweuir in his power and at. hismnrcy.
But when we git a chance at him we'll tum
ble him overboard quicker than the editur
ov The Holmes Countyawer went into
Udell's Lake.
Not even a Coppcrhod wood object two
the third resalushun. While it don't an
nounce no principal, it ihows we are clever
tellers.
The fourth resalushun is a propr r token
ov our friendly regards for the men who due
the Voten for us, and the wimun what help
us git up loyal mcetins.
The filth is s proper kick at slavery. It
is stickeh to what we hav scd all along, und
shows that we air fonijinst slavery.
The sixth is u gentle hint two Andy two
not be in two much ov a hurry about fixen
up things. As long as things ain't awl fix
ed up we will have a good supply ov offeses,
and when things are fixed we wont them so
they won't rip.
The seventh is anuthcr resalushun ov
thanks, and two them distinguished and ex
tinguished gentlemen, Dcruiiton, Tod and
Brough : whose serveses we esteemed i-o
highly that we let them severally oph with
one ' term. Good bye, gentlemen, we air
obleeged to you. ,
The eight shows that notwithstanden the
Declaratian ov Independence has been a
text book for the Copperhcds for the last
toar years, that we ken respect in word if
we doant in deed.
The ninth, and last, is the best and moast
pmtcd resalushun ov awl. it is ov moar
importance two us than any ov the rest
and wc air moar likely to liv up to it.
The cunimittee hav discharged thare du
ty with a skill which snood bea applauded
bv evrv loyal man. Auinst such a platform
the Copperheds may roar as the she lion
roan th when she would devour snmbuddy
to feed her young. Yea, they may howl as
tne won iiowiein wnen nosneep is nig n.
Tha cant fuze us no nioai n than tha cood
faze the head ov a loyal and intelligent free
Amenkeu ov All lkm detent witharctkn
untile. . .--. .
The Coppci beds will git up thare plat
form 111 tavor ot reducen taxation, restne-
ten expenditures, abolish offises. artd allow -
en Staits two regulate the wright ov suf
frage. Ilia will declare themselves oppos
ed two free Amerikens of Afri'ien desent en
ioyed the wrights to voat, forninst euvern-
uient bonds bein exempted from taxation,
opposed to the patriotic luulishy law ov last
winter and many uther loyal measures a
dopted by the Union men; all. of which all
Union men will oppose, and every traitor

thare matters sum time aein.
Now let us nomeuate u ticket that will
be wright on the goos, and to maik sliure of
thare soundness tha must nearly nwl bea
from the Western Reserve, that glureous
land ov cheese and butter, that is richer and
moar prcshiouser than the fabled land of
milk and honev.
WTe now hav slovery abolished, but our
work is only halt dun. Uur cullerd bruth
ers must voat and enjoy every pnvtiego we
hav for ourselves. 1'ha air just us good by
eddveashen and fur better by nater than wc.
Tha air the bravest solgers whatever fought
for the Union, ihn was lourmest in the
fight on every battlefield from Bull Run to
Petersburg. Tha always giv the latest and
moast reliable informashen Tha air di
pised by .the Copperheds. And tha will
awl voat our ticket. I look fur ward with
joy two the day when the black men, armed
with loyal ballots, will put doun the whole
Coppeihcd and Cathohck trash, together
with the infernal Dutch and Irish. North
and South. ' Prolonged Applause. (
The Republican State Convention of Ver
mont, nominated one Paul Dillingham for
Governor. -it is the same Dillingham who,
in 1857, wrote U John B. Floyd, then Sec
retary of War under Mr. Buchanan, as fol
lows: . ... ." . ..
, "I want to remove from this State, where
genuine Democracy is poorly thought of by
the great colored party who rnle here' ; ;
Mr. DillinghpV was atone time a Demo
crat, then a whig, then a Frecsoiler, then a
Democrat again, and now a Republican,
and the candidate for Governor of the
"groat colored party" that rule Vermont.
Who will pretend to deny that the party and
the candldaM art well suitsd, the one to the
other? - " 4 ' '

A fry for Women.
From the New "York Express.
The great lack of women in the new min
ing Territories of the far West nearly the
enlire population of Nevada and Colorado
being of the male sex is attracting atten
tion, llnui-cs und cities, silver and cold,
are not worth much without the society and
help ot women. JNoitlier wives nor ser
vants, it is said, can be bad, though both
huve unequaled opportunities. 1 he Ifockv
Mountain JVeic, of the 14th ultimo, de
clares that women will find in that country
the Utopia of their drams. ' Husbands
can be had at leisure, and those wishing to
engage in household employment can quick
ly acquire a fortune.-. In the populous ler-
ltory ot Colorado we are told
J here is scarce one woman where six
could and would be profitably employed if
1 hey could be be obtained. Wages here,
for common household duties, are from
thirty to fifty dollars per month, including
board. This makes wages, at the present
rate of boarding, from eighty to one hun
dred dollars per month."
lhese wages are payable in cold, and
the Rocky Mountain editor thinks that,
" Were the population something near
evenly divided in relation to sex, many of
those who have no fixed residence, but are
always coming and going, would contract
matrimonial alliances, auu make Colorado
their permanent homes. We want more
women to give pormunency to society, and
thus do away with that everlasting, never
failing salutation of 'when are you going
to the States?'
The young men who come to this coun
try to develop its rcs"uices and . make their
fortunes, are composed of the best energy
and enterprise of the United States, and if
corresponding numbers ot the opposite sex,
of equal ability, could be induced to emi
grate from those sections where there is
already a surplus of female population, an
advantage would accrue to all parties, and
Colorado would secure a permanence of
settlement that is much needed. We have
a beautiful country, healthy climate, and
wealth untold."
Governor Andrew of Massachusetts, who
has just given us sueh a.ad picture of the
great redundancy of the female population
in the old Bay State, should look to these
facts and Mrpes'". ;' l

On the morning of the meteoric shower,
in 1832, old Peyton Roberts, who intended
making an early start to his work, got up
in the midst of the display. . On going to
his door, he saw, with amazement, the sky
lit up with the falling meteors, ami he con
cluded at once the world was on fire, and
that the day of judgment had come. He
stood for a moment gazing in speechless ter
ror at the scene, and then wan a yell ot hor
ror sprang out of the door into the yard,
right into the midst of the falling stars, and
there in his efforts to dodge them, he com
menced a series of ground tumbling that
would have done honor to a rope-dancer.
His wife, being awakened in the meantime,
and seeing Peyton jumping and skipping
about the yara, bawled out to him to know
"What in the name of common sense he
was doin' outthar. dancin' round without
hisclothes on." But Peyton heard not.
The iudemcnt. and lone black accounts he
would have to settle, made him heedless of
all terrestrial things, and his Wife,' by this
time, becoming alarmed at his behaviour,
sprang out of bed, and, running to the
door, shrieked out at the top of her lungs:
... "Peyton, I say Peyton, what do you
mean, jumpin' about thar? Coma aad put
your trousers on."
"Trousers, what the h l's the use of
trousers when the world s on fire?

The Interview Between Presi
dent Johnston and Senator
Sumner.
A friend st Washington assures us that a
few weeks since sn interview took place be
tween President Johnson and Senator Sum
ner, which was substantially as follows:
"Good evening) Mr. President," said
Senator Sumner, last week, upon entering
the President's room in the Whits House.
"Good evening, Mr. Senator," replied
the President. "Please be seated for a
moment, until I finish a letter to aa old
friend."
The letter being finished tha President
turned to Mr. Sumner, when the latter
said:
"Mr. President, I .have called upon you
for the put pose of expressing to yon the
views of our people on the. subject of re
construction." "Well, sir," replied the President
Mr. Sumner commenced by saying: "Sir,
your North Carolina Proclamation does not
meet the approbation of tho people, and
they will not submit to have the great re
sults of the War thus thrown away."
"What people are you representing, sir?"
asked Mr. Johnson.
"The wholj Northern people," said Mr.
Sumner.
ll apprehend you will find yon but rep
resent a small portion of the Northern peo
ple," replied Mr. Johnson.
Then, said Sumner we must take your
North Carolina Proclamation as an indica
tion of your policy, are we."
"Yes, sir, replied the President.
'"Then, sir," said Sumner, "you do not
intend to enfranchise the black man?"
"I have nothing to do with the subject,
that exclusively belongR to the States. You
certainly would think it an usurpation on
my part if 1 attempted to interfere in fix
ing the qualifications oi electors in Massa
chusetts." "But," replied Sumner, "Massachusetts
has always been a loyal State."
"That may be." replied the President,
''but the loyal men of the South have made
untold sacrifices for their Union sentiments
while Massachusetts has made hundreds of
millions out of her loyalty, and it would be
a poor return for Southern adherence to the
Govfrnment, if the latter should, in viola
tion to the Constitution, thrust upon them
local laws in opposition to their wishes."
At this reply of the President, Mf Sum
ner became impatient and irritable, and re
joined l y saving, "I am sony to to see you
evincing so Sittle sjmputhy with that ele
ment that placed you in power."
At this, the color flushed to the Presi
dent's face, and he added, emphatically,
"You and I might as well understand each
other now as any other time. You are
aware, sir, I have no respect for a secession
ist; but, as much as I dtspiscihem, I have a
greater dctcstatiou and contempt for a fa
natic." "Good evening," said Sumner, and left in
a huff. Cin. Eurj.
Speaking of the meeting of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee at Columbus
last week, the Ohio State Journal says:
"But the question ot candidates is not
the great question in the Democratic ranks
at the present time. J he grand question
relates to the platform what planks shall
it have an3 what planks It shall not have.
The Democracy had its programme laid
down, but the Union Convention of June
21st disarraeged it. Now. will the Democ
racy cordially endorse Andrew Johnson's d
miiiistratinn? If it does, it can Vote the Un
ion ticket just as soon as it purges itself of
the record made at Chicago. ,
That is the first instance We have ever
known in which the editor of a paper has
boasted of a sacrifice of his political princi
ples and the adoption of the sentiments of
an opposing party, merely to "disarrange"
the programme of his opponents! The lan
guage of the Jmrrial, v it has any mean
ing, simply means that the Republican
State Convention endorsed the administra
tion of Andrew Johnson in order to get the
start of the Democratic State Convention!
What an adinissionl They do not endorse
the policy of the President in reality, yette
secure votes and "disarrange" the Demo
cratic party they pass & resoTutloh professed
ly endorsing the Administration! The Re
publicans need not trouble themselves about
the probable course of the Democratic State
Convention. Andrew Johnson is no "ele
phant" of the Democratic party's and the
State Convention Will not be influehced In
the Republican excuse for a platform. . It
will endorse such acts of the Administration
as it deems right, and will condemn what it
believes to be wrong. It will throw solid
shot and shell into the camps of the enemy
and "disarrange" their "programme'' by
the distention of facts and sound principles.
It will use no "Quaker guns" to deceive vo
terst but will rely for its success solely upon
the intelligence of the people and the right
eousness of its principles. lolcdo Record.
A Flock ot Drunken Pigeons.
A San Francisco paper has a curious sto
ry about a flock of inebriated pigeons. ' A
lurmer, living on one ot the ranches in the
vicinity of that city, was recently surprised
to see a large flock of pigeons, after flying
around his barn yard a few moments, sud
denly fall to the ground. Wondering at the
phenomena, he concluded to watch them.
An antiquated Thomas eat, perambulating
the yard, seized one ot the young pigeons,
and made a hearty meal of it. Soon after.
Thomas cat commenced staggering like in
toxicated, and tailing over, gave up the
ghost with a dismal yowl.
the farmer s wife who had picked up a
number of the pigeons for the purpose of
making pics of them, on learning of poor
grimalkin's fate, thought the birds were
Doisoned. and threw them down. The far
mer gathered up two hundred of them, and
threw them into an old out-house. Iu the
morning his wife found the pigeons alive.
and roosting on a wood pile. Inquiries
wero made, and it was ascertained that

Stephens Ulalory or It Term
Proffered by Lincoln Jeff Da
Via' False Coloring or Them.
Tha Augusta (Gs.) Chrontde ot tl 7th
iust,, publishes sn article authonsed, if cot
prepared by Alex. H. Stephens, giving as
inside view of the negotiatim at Hampton
Roads, between Lincoln aad Seward, and
Messrs. Stephens, Hontet and CamplolL
We make the following extracts!
Mr. Lincoln stated fairly that the only
ground upon which he could rest the justice
of the war either with his own people or
foreign Powers was that it was not a war
for conquest, but that the States never had
been separated from the Union Conse
quently, he could not recognise another
Government inside of the one of which ba
alone was President, nor admit tho separata
independence of States that were yet a part
of the Union. That, said he, weald ba
doing what yon -have so long asked Europe
to do in vain, and be resigning the on.y
thing the armies of the Union are fighting
for.
To that Mr. Huntef replied at length, in
rather Congressional style, urging that tha
recognition of Mr. Davis' power to make a
treaty Was the first and indispensable step
to peace, and referring to the correspon
dence between Charles the First and his
Parliament, as reliable precedent of a con
stitutional ruler treating with the rebels. -
Mr. Lincoln's face bore that indescribable
expression which generally preceded his .
hardest hits, and he remar ked: "Upon
questions of history I must refer you to M r.
Seward, for be is posted in such things, aui
I don't propose to be bright. My only dis
tinct recollection of the matter is, that
Charht lost his head." This settled Mr.
Hunter for swhile.
There was little said about the fact that
an armistice would bo ot' no benefit, unless
it preceded that which the North must
have, if ber armies stopped from the tidtr
of victory, to wit: the restoration of thii
Union and its laws.
Mr. Lincoln remark-id that whatever con
sequences may follow from the re-establishment
of thai authority, it must be accepted;
but individuals subject to pains and penaU
ties under the laws of the United States
might rely upon a very liberal use of the
powers confided to him to remit those pains
ami penalties if peace be restored.
He also stated in the above connection
thut, limited as he was Ly the Constitution,
he could not change or impair the power
of Congress, uor abolish its laws, tior stay
the judgltfdht of the courts; for the legisla
tive and judicial power had coequal juris
diction with the executive. But he did
offer all the power of and pardon aud influ
ence, both as the Cnief Magistrate and as a
popular party leader, and that is a better
offer than rebels on the eve of destruction -and
ruin ever had before from a victorious
power.
Mr. Huhter stated thut he h.id never en
tertained any 1 fears for his person or lif'o
from so mild a government as that of the
United States, to which Mr. Lincoln retort
ed that he, also, had feltcasvas to the rcb
els, but not always va easy about the lamp
posts around W ashington city a hint thut
ie had already done more favors for tha
cbelsthan was exactly popular with the
radical men of his own party,
During the conference thft proposed"
amendments to tho Constitution adopted by
Congress, on the 31st, were brought- to no
tice. These amendments provide that neith
er slavery nor involuntary servitude, except
for crimes, should exist within the United
States, or any place within its jurisdiction,
and Congress should have power to enforce
the amendment by appropriate legislation.
Mr. Lincoln hud almost assumed the tono
of argument, and iutimated that the States
might do much better to return to tha Un
ion at once than to stand the chances of
continued war, and the increasing bitterness
of feeling in Congress, and thut the time
might come when wc would cease to be an
erring people, invited beck to the Union as
citizens, but looked upon, perhaps, as ene
mies to be exterminated or ruined.
Mr. beward then remarked: "Mr. Pres
ident, it is well to inform these geutlemen
that yesterdoy Congress acted upon the
amendment to tho Constitution aboli&hing
Mr. Lincoln stated that was true, and
suggested that there was a question as to
the right ot the insurgent states to return
at once and claim a right to vote upon the
amendment, to which the concurrence of
two-thirds of the States was required.
- He stated that it would be desirable to
have the institution of slavery abolished by
the consent of the people as soon as possi
blehe hoped within six years. He also
stated that four hundred millions of dollars
might be offered as compensation to tha
owners, and remarked, l ou would be sur
prised wero I to give you the names f
those who favor tbat.'V ;
Mr. Hunter said something about tk
inhumanity of leaving so many poor old
negroes and young children destitute by en
couraging the able-bodied negroes to run
away, and asked, what are they the help
less to aor
Mr. Lincoln ssid that reminded him 0
an old friend in Illinois, who had a -crop lot
potatoes and did not want to dig them.
So he told a neighbor that be would turn in
his hogs and let them dig them tor them
selves. But, said the neighbor, tha frot
will soon be in tha ground, and when the
soil is hard frozen what will they do then?
To which the worthy farmer replied, "Ut
emrovtl
Mr. Stephens said he sunnosed that was
the original of "Root, Hog, or Die," and a
fair indication of the future of the negroes.
And so the conference ended. Mr. Steph
ens reported to Davis that nothing had
oeen aone, out ociicvea tne way open 1 to a
settlement. The Chronicle then says; i
"Mr, Davis, however, looked upon the
proposals as insulting, and seemed to have
the concurrence ot Mr. Hunter iu that view
somewhat. lie wished a statement to go
before the public that only insulting terms
were offered, bat the commissioners decliu
cd to make it, on the grouud that it was oot
true." , , t
But Messrs. Stephens, Hunter snd Camp
bell did unite in a report which was made
public, and from which the extension of the
period of emancipation to six years, and the
offer of four hundred millions of dollars a
compensation to slave-owners, uxu cmfuSy
omitted. . '',.; .. '
