Sherwood returned ho«ne on Tuesday of last week from their trip MP*The present legislature pasted an act amendatory of a former law, in which all of our country readers are specially interested. It reads that "fences four and one-half feet high, and ID good repair, consisting of rails, timber, boards, stone, hedges, barb wire, or whatever the fence viewers of the town or precinct where the tame shall He shall consider equivalent thereto, shall be deemed legal and •nffloient fences. Provided, that in counties under township organization the elector*, at any annual town meet! ag may determine what shall constitute a legal fence in the town; and in counties not under township organization, the power to regulate the heighth of fences shall be vested la the county board." This law takes 41Sect the first ef July next. MP* An exchange Bays that It *rtiV Interest Americans visiting or about to visit Europe to learn that Minister Phelps has Issued an edict that no American woman will be presented at oourt only when they are persons of "genuine distinction, whose standing In the United States would justify the United States minister in Introducing them Into the drawing room/* What contemptible snobbery 1 This ia dem ocratic simplicity with vengeance. Is a lady's standing In America to be de­ termined by the length of her purse, or the shortness of herj dress waist as among court ladies? What provision of the constitution of the law or di­ plomatic usage makes Minister Phelps the judge ef fitness, or to sit in judg meat on the social status of bis fellow- Ooontry women. •9* Since our last Issue the h«s been much excited by the action •f the President In ordering the rebel flags returned to the different states from whose troops they were captured and so strongly and emphatically was the dastardly act condemned by both Be publicans end Democrats, that the President dare not allow it to be carried oat and recinded the order. And be did not do it a moment too soon. Mr. Cleveland's purpose was plain enough. He knows he Is Presi­ dent by the favor of the very Southern sentiment he wanted to pander to and 1M would cuddle ex-rebels simply for the purpose ef reaping once more the advantages of a solid South. Bnt the battle flags will test where brave hands placed them--in the custody of the United States, and no thanks to His Accldency. The loyal people of this country have found out what a Democratic President would like to do Jt>ut does not dare do it.

A -convention or those eeeeding states bad also, at a congress assem­ bled at Montgomery, Ala., organized a new government by the adeption of a constitution, which was called the "Confederate States of America.1' This action was taken on Feb. 4th, 1801, and Jefferson Davis was chosen President, and Alexander H. Stevens, vice president of this new confederacy. Such was the state of affairs when theVlme approached for the inaugu­ ration of the first Republican presi­ dent. A wholejsection of the country practically in arms, against their fel­ low citizens, and evidently prepared for any consequences. The na* ion was aroused, and awaited with intense anxiety the next move. Would these desperate and threatening slave-own­ ing and secession champions dare an open rebellion? And would a new administration in the hands of a new party, dare to meet the Issue? This was the situation, and although no epen armed forces were yet In view, two hostile and bitter foes faced each other when morning broke March 4. 1861, the day of Abraham Lincoln's in­ auguration as President. This critical situation and the fact thatopen threats were loudly made that the President elect should never be permitted to take the oath of office,' rendered some precautions for safety necessary, and the "inauguration took place amid a greater display of mill tary than had ever before been wit­ nessed on such an occasion," In th6 inaugural address. President Lincoln was concili%tory and conservative in tone. He denied the right of secession disavowed any intention of interfer­ ence with slavery in the slave states, but claimed it was his duty to "hold, occupy and possess the places and property" belonging to the Federal government, both In the South as well as In the whole Union. <And the night of March 4th, 1861, a Republican Pres­ ident occupied the Wtlte House, and the chief executive of the nation was a representative of the party of real freedom. On April 12th, 1861, Fort Sumpter wa« bombarded by order of the so- called Confederate State Government, and surrendered on April 13th from lack of supplies to stand a seige until the Federal Government could send succor. On April 15th, 1861, the Pres­ ident issued a call for 75,000 men which was quickly responded to by all the free states. On April 19,1861, as a Massachusetts regiment was passing through Baltimore, on its way to Washington, in response to the Presi­ dent's call, it was attacked by a mob of secession sympathizers, and three men killed and several wounded. The first bloodshed which occurred. Armies were now rapidly assembled equipped and prepared for war, and early in June, 1861, open hostilities were commenced in Virginia, which Involved the nation .In the greatest civil war of history, and placed the slavebolding, seceding states in open rebellion. The spectacle was now presented of a nation divided and torn by the herrors of a civil war. The rebels representing a section of the nation who had precipitated the contest, for the sake ef perpetuating a system of homaa slavery, which all English speaking and most civilized people condemned as a moral wrong. The legally elected officers of the Union defied by a party of dlsunlonists at the same time the party was In the hands of a party pledged to Union and freedom. It Is not necessary at this time to follow the events of the great war. The object now is, to show the forces moral and national, which were in active existence at this time. The Republican party, always a vigorous child, developed and grew wonder­ fully under these circumstances. Hav­ ing possession of the National gov­ ernment. and with Abraham Lincoln, its first and grandest leader, as presi­ dent, it met most nobly the exigen­ cies of the case. Under the stimu­ lus of patriotism which could bear no thought of disunion, and supported by • strength which resulted from mural causes, it neither sank under tempo­ rary defeats nor shrank from any sac­ rifice which could help to perpetuate its grand and noble purposes. It flour­ ished and developed, unifying the sentiment of the manhood of the, na­ tion, and with vigorous growth ap­ proached maturity. War with Its ever changing vicissitudes and varying for tunes, now raged for some years. The loyal citizens supported the adminis. tratlon with willing hands and purses, until at the beginning of the third year of the war, on January 1st, 1863, President Lincoln issued his memora-* ble Emancipation Proclamation. This forever set free all slaves held In bond age in states at war with the national government. This grand document in the interests of human right had a fitting author in the first Republican President, and has conferred immor­ tality both on him and his party, which most cordially endorsed it, and the Union Army, backed with this document and the principles of right and justice which encouraged them, pushed on more confidently to their to Michigan. Miss Forbes, a nelce ot Mrs. Sherwood, came with them for a visit. Geo. Dodd* who has been sick for s long time, |« now gaining rapidly. W. P. Benson Is recovering from his illness. C E.
