Nor THE AUTHOR OF THE PHRASsB.—The monotonous common-place of the speeches State papers of Andrew Jobneon Bave beer relieved by one phrase of Websterian force and ring—that about « pun- isbipg traitors and making treason odious.” The sentiment may be said to have been the salvation of Jobnson at a time when he had sunk pretty low in public estimation. But it has always seemed odd bow such a ringiwg epigramatic sentence should bave come from the mint of sloppy, diffusive Johnsonian ut- terance, The mystery is. however, explained tous in this wise by ene well aware of the facts. —s On the night of the surrender of Lee, General Museey, formerly Private Secretary to Presi- dent Lincoln,was at the Union League Rooms, Poiladelphia, in company with Mr. Robeson, present Secretary of the Navy, and others, and the question came up as to the course likely to be pursued by President Lincoin towards the Tebel States, The fear was expressed by some that advantage would be taken of the good nature of Mr. Lincoln by some of the shrewd rebel political leaders (0 obtain concessions that would compromise the Republican party The enquiry was made in the same conne. - uon how fer Vice President Jobason could be counted on in aiding to carry ont a firm Kepnblican line of pehey towards the South. General Museey cave the opinion tha: he could be depended upon asa radical Repub- lican. In the course of this conversa.ion Mr. Robeson advocated the adoption of a firm, de- cided policy im regard to the ex-rebels, aud said he was in favor of “punisbing traitors and making treason odious.” General Mussey on his return to Washington related onversation to Mr. Johnson using language of Mr. Robeson. The words above quoted seemed to tickle Jobnson’s ear, and he turned quickly around, saying. “Wnhat was tat General? Wul you please repeat that ! General Mussey repeated the words, and pres- sently Mr. Johnson asked their 1e-repetitien, and finally begged Gen. M. to write them down, which be did. Shortly after tnat, on the occasion of Johnson's next public utterance, be made use of the vow famous phrase as his Own, and trom that day to this has made much of it 4s bis owm special thunder.

He com- ined that instead of advocating union and peace, they excited the passions and raised ov- stacles to the policy of the government. He wished them to understand he was not the san- gumary person the people were led to believe him tobe. What he desired was to pacify the island with the least possible sheding of blood. ‘He expected the journals to advocate concilia- tien and peace. and he hoped the editors would comphehend the-e instractions and act accord- tugly. tu the course of bis speech he stated that the late Captain General Dulce iad been harshly treated. The announcement of the action of the U.S. Authorities im preventing the yiolaion of the neutrality laws, renders the Spaniards more confiden’, they now look to & speedy termi- nation of the rebellion. Recent advices trom Cuban sources state that After their recemt repulse the Spanish forces in the Cineo Villas district were rein‘orced by two ‘ousand men, regulars and volunteers. which increased the Government forces to uearly double that of the Cubans, ana they were compelled to retreat. Several small bodies were captured by the Spaniards, one numbering =5 men, Among them a number o! Americans, all of whom are reported to have been execuied by order of General Lesca, (who, it is said, commands the expedition.) immedi- ately after their capture. All the large planta- tions im the district have been destroyed.
