Sted- man, as business manager of my Printing and Publishing House, and the Star newspaper, notice is hereby given that he is fully authorized to act for me in all matters pertaining to my business. - WM. H. BERNARD. THE MORNING STAR. The Evening Star goes down (but not in defeat), and the Morning Star rises in its place. As a morning paper, we feel sure that we can add greatly to the interest of the Star. Published in the afternoon, it was impossible to have the paper delivered to our numerous city subscribers before a very late hour of the day; and the few hours of the morning which could be devoted to the compilation of news, were too limited to enabled us to get up such a paper as we wish to publish. j;.: ; j We trust our tnends will see, in our change to a morning paper, only an evidence of prosperity. , An evening' paper is much more economical to the publisher: but never n ,vWnhlo n rot hnrlv nf thp. rnnrl- in public. ! 1 In addition to this, our country circula- tion is increasing so rapidly that it becomes a matter of importance to us to so arrange our publication hour as to be ready for the mails on the three railroads converging at this point. j We will now be enabled to give our coun try subscribers all the latest news within a few hours after it reaches us. At nve dollars per year, those, even, wno are not placed in daily communication with Ann -a -J . 1 Wihiiinerton can afford to subscribe to the Star. For three months, we furnish a daily paper for $1 25. Surely, no one can object to our terms. The Star has not yet reached our stand- ara oi excellence as a newspaper : dux we are now making arrangements that will add grcatly to its value and interest as a news journal. We will enlarge the paper, gradually, un til it comes up to the demands of the public. In about three weeks, we will make our first addi tion to its size. OUR DUTY. We cannot see the good likely to grow out of any undue exultation; on the part of the South, over the recent elections. Now is the time, above all others, for the press and people of the South to exercise extreme cau- 7 . tion anu pi uueuce. miempeiaiu vvuius win only make the party strife assume a more malignant form. We should hot'forget that we are outsiders. At this time we have no voice in the nation al councils; we are disfranchised; our ad vice is not needed, nor is it wanted, at the North. It is very unwise in a portion of the Southern press to so far forget the interests of their section as to make the recent Dem- vr An! ocratic successes at tne iMortn tne occasion 01 open and enthusiastic rejoicing ; and com- mence afresh the bitter denunciation of the Pow.nhliVan rfv i " Republican party. . Why not "let well-enough alone s It is .... .. m not the Democrats,! alone, who have won the victories in Pennsvlvania and Ohio. They have planned the campaign, and have officer- ed the army ; but it should not be forgotten that tens of thousands of Conservative Re- publicans swelled the ranks, and did some of the hardest fighting. '. . The true policy of the South is to let the politicians of the North decide the question whether this government is to survive or not, 1. - without our suggestions or advice. We are powerless to do good ; but can, if we are so disposed: do 1 a great deal of harm. The f , ' . .... . . United States Congress is still m power; in truth, it is now the government:, and, while the recent result of the Northern elections may moderate itews, His bno ahs certain that our denuciations will add to that change. Keep quiet. Let the entire people of the v j. , .. . North, friends and foes, realize the fact that we are patiently awaiting the result of their work If they fail, let it not be said that , 1 in. . ! we are a party to tne xaiiure hy Biieut Buuimssiuu vu mau """ annot avoid, we sire Btrencth. to the true 1 Mekd of Cbnsatutlttnat Gdternment at the Korth. . ,By: unmanly, repining at our lot, and. indiscreet denunciations of the par- ty in power, we give : strength to those we would weaken. We say, again, leave the! decision of the great question in which we are-ritally inter ested, to those who are equally interested with us. i If the flag of the Republic goes down dst, and in bloody the Qres of Rev olution will not be checked; by geographical lines.

In the adop- tioli ot measures and the treatment of .men it has been alike intemperate and relentless, The mogt extreme theories of the wildest and m0st impracticable theorizers have been forced Upon the party as the basis of its creed; and! the oldest, strongest, and most devdt;d an(1 efficient men of the party havd )jeen; spumed arid traduced, with reckless violence, if they failed or faltered, in giving h, ipubiican pkrtgrew . : Rf to be wise..

The first result I f such K etmnte is tb mke m pkrty which adopts it corrupt, and the next is to make it weak. The republican party is admonished by the State elections that have just' occur red that they must reform their action in these respects. The people will not sanction the extreme courses which have been marked out for them. ' FROM WASHINGTON Special Dispatch tp the Baltimore Sun. Presidential Serenade Abandoned Gov- eror urrs Knuorsomeiit or General SieSiiles Interviews with tlie Presiaeiit Tlie War Oiuee Appointments,fce. I - : Washington, Oct. 10. Noon. A large crowd collected about the White House to-night in expectation that the Presi dent would be serenaded as announced. The proposed demonstration was abandon ed, However, it is understoodv because of the intimation that Mr. Johuson did "not favor it. I . 1 v. .4. , A letter from South Carolina, received here, gives the history of legislation in that State with a view of staying execution on the judgments of the courts, in which it is shown that that measure failed, principally, from the efforts dnd influence of Governor Orr, of ;Sotith Carolina, . who opposed the project. The writer makes that statement in order to show the inconsistency of Gov. Orr, in his letter to General Sickles, approv ing general order No. 10 -of that officer. Gen. Schbfield had an interview wTith the President to-day upon the condition of af fairs in the first military district. Secreta ries Browning and Welles, and Attorney General Stanberry were " present. General Sherman also had an interview with the President, and it is expected that the former will leave here shortly for New York, and thence go to Missouri. ' Chief Justice Chase writes that he will be here on Saturday or ,Monday next. ; It, appears to be quite probable now that General McClernand, of Jllinois, may ; suc ceed j General Grant in the War Department. In conversation to-(;lay Secretary McCul-. ! loch expressed the opinion that Mr. Pendle ton's plan for paying the five-twenties 'in greenbacks was, substantially, repudiation, -and that it would not be adopted. The general belief here is that the result of the elections in Ohidf and Pennsylvania puts a quietus upon impeachment. In this opinion the Radicals concur. The following appointments were made by the President to-day: R. H. Summerville to be receiver of the land office, Tallahassee, Fla.;: John J. Qodrey, to be collector ot customs for the, districts of St. Mary's, Ga. "! " Data, . Washington, Oct. 11. General Grant,, to-day, in conversation on the elections of last Tuesday, said he was pleased with the result, because it would' allay anxiety about the conflict of arms and revolution, and compel moderation on the part of tbe-extreniists, who have been threat ening measures that disturbed the public mind, and kept well-disposed citizens in alarm for the stability of government and security of financial interests. - , The President has, upon the recommenda tion of Governor Pierrepont and Attorney General Stanbery, pardoned Samuel Barron, of j Virginia, ex-commodore of the Confed erate navy. --. General Sherman left here this evening for New York,; for the purpose of visiting his daughter, residing in that city. .He will re main in New York a few days, and then go West to resume his command. As yet none of the recently threatend pres sures upon the President for the removal of Mr. McCulloch have been brought to bear, nor has any effort been made to depose oth er; regular members of the Cabinet. The President has not said ito any . one recently that he proposes to make a change C in the administration, except in the War Depart ment. .. ' . t " , . "' - - j- The unfounded assertions in this regard' that have been circulated keep financial men in -feverish solicitude, ancl gold speculators constantly on the qui live. ; Undue Familiarity on Snort Acquaint- , i . - ance. , ; . ' C. and B., on one of their flatboat trip's on the lower Ohio, when the boat tied up for tlie night, on the Indiana shore, thought they would vary their hard diet with- a dish of mush and milk, their peculiar weakness. Accordingly they reconnoitered the hills,, and soon came across a small house in the woods, presided over by a blooming Hoosicr t lass of some . eighteen summers, tall and graceful as one of her own native hoop poles. They stated their errand, tmd she, with true Hoosier hospitality, forthwith proceeded to prepare the dainty for the wayfarers. She mixed the ingredients in a huge pot pn the tire, and, with a mush stick about four feet long, she set to work to stir the savory mess. As the two young men sat directly behind lier, watching the operation, B. directed C's attention to a small hole in the waist of the young lady's dress, and pointed his linger within about an inch of it. Unluckily, just then the damsel made ' a sudden; move ment backward, and the; linger came in. con tact with the bare skin.' The guilty joker broke for the woods and escaped. . The in furiated lass, brandishing the huge mush stick, all reeking with the hasty pudding, dealt the innocent, luckless C. a . trenaendous blow, laying him flat on . the . floor a flat boatman indeed. Explanation or ; apology wa I useless; and so, with hair,J eyes, beard and moustaches all dripping with his favor ite delicacy, he gathered himself up and de- r parted for his floating domicile; a sadder and a'wiswman. . - l. .
