Washington Letters.
Washington City, Nov. 26, 1863.
Editors Dily Journal
To-day, the day appointed? the Pres-
ident as a day of National thanksciring
, , f ,
u prayer, was generally ODserveu nere,
and the city wears an air of Sunday ap"
pearance. As a fitting incident to the
oecasion,and asagreater incentive to ex
cite deeper emotions of thanksgiving and
praise, the news of Grant's victory at
Chattanooga was received this morning.
A retrospective glance at the pa3t can
not fail to ex?ito emotion? of the roost
profound 'ratitude io that all-wise Ruler
of the universe, who, while chastising us
as a Nation for our perverseness, hath
nevertheless remembered mercy. Wis"
dom has been vouchsafed to our rulers ;
victory has crowned our armies and navy;
fruitful harvests havs rewarded our far
mers; health has abided with us; foreign
jealouses and designs "have failed to dis
turb our harmonious relations of friend
ship with foreign powers. Surely we,
as a nation, ought to exclaim with a
united voice, "give thanks untothe Lord."
Let us not, in the enthusiasm of our joy,
fail to remember that these manifold
blessings are attended- with tremendous
responsibilities. Let us write upon our
door posts, " Rightousness exalteth a
Nation, but sin is a reproach to any peo
ple." This terrible scourge yf civil war
has not been without its attendant nation
al benefits. The good Lord has not bap
tized our people id blood, in vain ! Amer
ica, ever dear to the true lover of liberty,
is infinitely more so, now that thousands
of her honored brave have consecrated
the soil afresh, to freedom and free insti
tutions. That great blot upon our escatcheon
human slavery is wiped out in the blood
of martyrs, and no longer subjects us as a
people, to the taunts and sneers of the
civilized world. Let us not forget, either,
the mother and the orphan, made so, by
the wicked and causeless rebellion. To
them, in their sorrowful pilgrimage
through life, let us" ever extendi the help
ing hand, remembering that we enjoy
the precious heritage of free institutions,
only through the blood of their husbands
and fathers.
The aggregate Union majorities in the
recent State elections, amount to 431,
0)0! Deduct 10,000 butternut majority
in New Jersey, and we still leave 421,
000 Union majority. Certainly this
grand result is a terrible rebuke to cop
perheadism. The record is made up,
the seal is placed upon these insidious
Brders of treason in our midst, and a
mark more enduring than that of Cam,
will follow such creatures as .Vallandig
ham. Wood, Seymour, and their follow
ers, to the grave. Yonr correspondent's
predictions as to a speedy termination
of the war. seems to be hastening to
fulfillment, lie certainly fails to read
aright in the signs of the times any
thing else than speedy victory. The
area of the rebellion is being daily more
and more circumscribed, and soon we
may look for peace permanent peace.
The Hon. Schuyler. Colfax is in the
city and is stopping at the National.
There remains scarcely a doubt of his
election to the Speakership. Indeed, un-
i .i i ' n . i ui
icss uiu Hieuiucrs m congress entirely
disregard the wishes of their constitu
ents, he cannot fail of election on the
first ballot. The President did
wrong in ignoring his claims to a seat in "1
the Cabinet, and this tardy act of justice
as a reward for his unswerving devo
tion to the truth will certainly be ac
corded him. 'As Speaker, he unquestion
ably would be the right man in the
right place.
The recent triumph of the Radicals in
Missouri, is a terrible blow to Messrs.
Blair and Bates. The President has too
long listened to these gentlemen, and in
mcrw instances than one has tailed to
adopt the right course in Missouri. That
State tojll be free, and Gov. Gamble's
tender care of slavery cannot extend its
life.
Since the abolition of slavery in the
District of Columbia, new life and vigor
seems to be infused into the inhabitants.
Improvements of all kinds are going on,
street railroads hive supplanted the ob
solete ha.'k, and the Washington of to
day is scarcely recognizable to the visitor
of ten years ago.
It is rumored that Chief Justice Taney
will resign, and that Secretary Chase
will succeed him. The country could
scarcely spare Mr. Chase from the posi
tion he has so ably filled. The name of
Salmon P. Chase wil go down to history
as the ablest financier of the age, and a
grateful people will not fail to reward bis
labors. Mr. Chase is frequently urged
as Mr. Lincoln's successor, but Presiden
tial speculations, just at this time, are
premature. Occident.
D.VXGEROUS CotTXTERFEIT LOOK OfJT !
We were showa this morning, bj Mr.
A. J. Gerstner, who keeps a clothing
store on East Washington street, nearly
opposite Little's Hotel, a counterfeit
twenty dollar green back, which is well
enough executed to deceive those who
are not in the habit of closely scrutiniz
ing money. It was presente i to him en
Saturday by a young man who purchas
ed one dollar and twenty-five cents worth
of goods, and got the balance of the
twenty dollars in change. The general
appearance of the bill is good, though in
that it may be easily detected. The sig-
natures are good imitations, though the
ink is paler than the genuine. The
shading generally is imperfect, the lines
course and heavy. The vignette is rather
shabby, the robe, face and hair being lit
tle better than the work of a pen or
crayon pencil. The engravings on the
back is also very coarse and blurred. The
p-iiace arc on the srack of the counterfeit
er,',but it willjbe well for every one to keep
a look out. Ind. Gazette.
A letter from Chattanooga says
hundreds of deserters from Bragg's
army are coming into our lines. In one
night thirty-six, from different parts of
the rebel lines, found their way through
to curs. There was one North Carolina
conscript among them, who said that the
late conscription in his State had raked
up every man who could carry a musket,
and that, without a single exception,
they were friends of the Union. He said
that whole companies of them, officers
and all, declare openly that they would
desert at the first opportunity.
EVANSVILLE, IND., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4. 186a
A Sad Pjctcrb. The New Albany
Ledger draws the following dark picture
of Indianapolis:
Murders, assassinations, slung shot
assaults, robberies, burglaries, thieving,
pocket picking, sprinkled with some ar
son, are the regular amusements now of
n.'gnU in Indianapolis, it is not posi-
tively salubrious for a gentleman who
has a postage stamp in his pocket or
elsewhere about his person, to appear
individually by himself alone upon any j
of the streets, under the moon, under the '
1 stars, and especially and particularly
under the cloud3. The chances are a
, thousand to a million that he will reach
home and embrace, with a sore head his i
virtuous wife, and recount to her a sor- I
rowful tale of how he has been abused.
A sad, wicked world is this, and Indian- i
I apolis seems to be the Gog and Magi s

Col. Makkland. The Louisville Jour
nal of Wednesday says:
This able and efficient officer, known
in all our southwestern country as a spe
cial agent of the Postofficc Department,
has gone toward the front, where, if we
are rightly informed, his services aro
sadly needed to set free the accumulated
mail matter at Nashville and other points,
and speed it forward to its destination in
the camps of our gallant soldiers. Col.
Markland is the man for such services
and for all others that his country may
require of him. We do not doudt that
in an incredibly short time ho will right
everythipg that ia wrong in the post.-!
arrangement ot the southern region c
this Department Col. Markland's sei
vices to our cause hava been and are in
valuable. Intelligent, practical, sensi
ble, energetic, resolute and. faithful, h
hasdeserved well of hfs country and f
hisState. And we rejoice ta know thnt
he is gratefully recognized by the author
ities of both.
A Wonderful Salvk. A paragraph
has been going the rounds of the press in
which an account is given of a horse
having a new hoof grown on by the use
of a certain farrier's ointment Now
this reminds us of an incident that hap
pened in Lyons, Wisconsin. A Mormon
priest named Nichols professed a power
of doing miraculous things and com
pounding wonderful medicines. He
made a nerve and bono all-healing aalve,
and thought he would experiment a little
with it He first cut off his dog's tail
and applied some of the salve to the
slump. A new tail grew out immediate
ly. He then appli'edBome to the piece
of tail which he had cnt off, and a new
dog' crew out. He didn't know which
dog was which. This may seem a tough
story, but we have Nichols' word for it,
and we don't think he would lie.
