Amendment prohibiting slavery,
iapg Congress to make laws to
prohibition effective. These are —
conditions prescribed by President John-
ion, and they have all been fulfilled,
flow why should not ¿ha President at once ter-
minate the Provisional Government, relieve
the Provisional Governor, hand over the
¿Ml anthority of the State to Gov. Worth and
the other officers elected by the people, and
withdraw all the troope except soeh as the
■State authorities may need for the preserva-
tion of order, and the maintenance of lawful
authority. How, indeed, can he avoid doing
this, in compliance with his promises—t ose
promises, on the faith of which the State has
taken this action? I is to be presumed that
he will do it at the earliest possible moment
And when it is done, what remains for Con-
gress or anybody else to do? Congress, cer-
tainly, cannot nullify the President's áotion.
Congress cannot order the President to restore
the Provisional Governor—to deposo the Gov-
ernor elected by the people—to disperse the
Legislature, or to raise new armies to hold the
State still longer in subjection. Nor can Con-
gress itself take such action. No man in Con-
gress, not even Mr. Stevens, wolild thiuk for
a moment of creating a new Provisional Gov-
ernment, and appointing a Governor to sap-
plant the authorities elected .by the people
and admitted by the national executive to the
exercise of their Amotions. The State will
have been restored to the exercise of that local
and subordinate sovereignty which belongs to
it under the constitution or the United States.
And no committee of Congress, we apprehend,
would see reason, under such a state of things,
for reporting that North Carolina was not in a
condition to be represented in both branches
of the national Congress. And if it should so
report, neither Congress nor the country
would ratify its conclusions.
It is possible for Congress to embarrass the
President somewhat in acting upon this ques-
tion, but it cannot defeat him. It may ulso
make an issue with him upon the general
principles of his action, but it can gain nothing
by so doing, and may lose much. Its true
policy doubtless is to act in harmony with
him, and to aid him in his efforts to effect the
speedy and safe restoration of the Union to
its integrity.

following rather good 'un:
"\k> Di FINNIOAKS."
Some of our Irish fellow-citizens of
Fenian persuasion, hada little festivity
Louisa few days since, and when the wuux
was weU under way, they forgot themselves so
£f 88 ^L®®vnd for Major-General Frank P.
Blair, with the purpose of drawing a speech
from him. The General was foundjust at the
oonolusion of a dinner party, which had not
been conducted on strict temperance prin-
ciples, and, to put a line point on it, he was
not precisely in condition to confine hims<#f
very closely to one subject He concluded,
however, that he would go and make the
boys a speech, notwithstanding the advice of
some of his friends, among them Genet al
Sherman, that he had better postpone, his re-
marks. on the great Fenian question until
some other occasion should arise. Arrived at
the hall, where the sunburst glowed, and the
shamrock bloomed, he was presented to the
audience with the usual flattering observations,
and drawing himself up to his full height, his
countenance wearing a look of inxpressible
solemnity, he roared at the top of his voice;
"Finnegans! I'm with you.'
The mercurial Irishmen, dashed a little b
the apparent mistake of the General, in ad
dressing them by a name they had not called
themselves, and looking upon his broad decla-
ration that he was with them, us all right, in-
terrupted him with a tremendous round of ap-
plause. Poising himself, as if to meet a great
emergency, he continued:
"But mind, I tell you, you have a big con-
tract on hand, and Old Ireland is away across
the ocean. But when you get your ships and
have them loaded with cauuou and things,
and sail down New York harbor, I'll go oul
there at Sandy Hoyk, and take off my hat, and
say with all my heart—good-bye, Finnegans!
And when I think it's about time you had,
touched the sod over there. 1'il give you my ¡
piayers, and say—Go in, Finnegans."
At this point there was another interruption, I
and one not altogether of excessive upproba-1
tion. General Blair was tumultously told
they were not Fiunegaus, but Fenians; and,'
after apologising for his mistake, by saying
he had been down South so loug he had for- j
gotten the name of things, the hero gracefully
retired. '

Jhere are suggestions in the following
article from the Cincinnati Oommerciul, which
we think are well worth the consideration of
our business men:
Immediately upon thé close of the war there
was great activity in Southern trade. Large
stocks of goods, groceries, drugs and such
other articles as were most in demand, were
dispatched to every Southern town of any
commercial importance. Such was the pres-
sure and activity, that rents in Richmond,
Baleigh, Charleston, Mobile, New Orleans,
Memphis, Nashville, «fcc., rose to a higher fig-
ure than ever known before.

put it into market, exchanging it for clothing
and food. Those who predicted upon these
symptoms, a long and uninterrupted period of
activity in the Southern trade, took a very su-
perficial viewv Had the relations of capital,
and labor been immediately adjusted, it is not i
impossible that a healthful commercer^oiild
have been established, but such was
case. The Baleigh Progress gives us a very
doleful account of the present condition of
trade there. The plunters having expended
the stock in hand to supply immediate neces-
sities, are now without money to purchase or
products to exchange. The market is glutted
with merchandise, but there «ire very few able
to buy. The merohants, says the Progress,
stand idle at their counters, or lounge about
their doors, waiting for the custom that does
not come. Rents have fallen, business of All
kinds fallen off, and the high hopes based up-
on the commercial activity ol Jnly, August
and September, are scattered to the winds.
