Tho South took a Iflerent view of her rights and duties, Inder the Federal Constitution, from that Liortained by tin 1 Federal Government. 1’jr followed. Tho South failed—the loverameot triumphed. The South must, te-etore, abandon her views on the con- irerted points; and she has abandoned ?Illi SLe has given up secession and livery forever. ^ 1 : last thirty years, and carefully consider- 1 ing tho clcinonU which have boon at work 1 <*b orying how, day uft*r tiny, the bioacli was widening ami *d« opouing b •'« ween tho free and the slave States, and lin t, y, ns* j cortaining a lix purpose, on the pari of the ; South, to bo satLUed with nothing less I than separate indepe?.donee, and a n > loss the prt11 of the I'rco •unvdiuioes !•) p- rmiui of the Union, l am per* suaded that the conflict was ‘irrepressible,’ | and that sooner or latter, the passions and -- , jpuders, those portions v. hieh prejudice* of our people having become |or*.bern _ri t hn j purpose? with which , implacable, war was “inevitable/’ And iilg'nd moro intelligent ;»art of the „ 0 w that tho strife is over, for one 1 can e ff„ 0 eoplehave.nccoptod the i.-suo ft .,y, that I would not rosion- siavery if 1 Jallfanr. That duo weight ,u:l V could.

Me! ; slavery has boon abolished and now, no I matter how unwi.-ely done, lei ii remain , forever irrevocable. Immediately alter the sun under •<!' our I armies some of our ardent, impatient young men, chiding under defer.t, spoke j of removing to Brazil, and others to Mex- J ico, and joiuing the French army. It re- I quired but a sit. rt time to dissipate such | visionary ideas. Who, that desires peace and order, would exchange the South, | impoverished as slm is, for ilrnx.il? Ami ; as for France, what claim ha? she upon : the affections or >ymp,»lhn*s of the South* ! ern people? For IV-ur years were we strug gling for life, and she stood oil* not even raising her voice, hut like Great Britain, ignoring her whole previous history. The South is under obligation? to no other gov- orntnonb, and 1 tvi-nce at it. Our family quarrel is over. If, in a contest between sections on our own soil, such n sources, power courage and endurance havo boon exhibit'd, us cans d the world to look on with woudor and amax. 'iimnt, what shall be our power when hereafter, we are lmf- monious and unitmi! Permit me to add, in conclusion, that so far as my observation has extended, thero is no disposition on the part of tlm Government to bo harsh or vindictive. President Johnson is indexible in main taining tho authority of tho United S ate?, and requires unequivocal evidence that the South accepts tho issues of the war in good faith. I believe that his purpose is to be just to all sections of the country. Tho South having surrendered to the arms of tho Government, cannot expect moro than ho is willing to concede, and it scorns to me no just man can ask moro of her than ho has required. If this bo so, then should bo roceivothe cordial support of tbe wholo country. Tnos. S. Gholson, Petersburg, Va., Sept. 20,18(15. From tbe Louisville Journal. The I.nxt Letter ever Written by the . JL«.ite Bishop lien. Polk We present below a copy of tho last au tograph letter, probably, by tbe late Bish op Gen. Polk, of the Confederate army: It was captured by chief bugler Joseph ltoskyevich, of the Eleventh Cavalry, at Salisbury, N. 0. It was addressed, it will !e perceived, to his daughter, just after marriage. Tho orig.nal is in our posses sion, and can be obtained by the lady to whom it was addressed. Wo are also do- sired to say that tho watch of Bishop Gen. Poll;, which was captured with much other properly at tho sumo li mo, is now in the hands of the same gentleman, and is at tho disposal of tho family of tho de ceased. We knew 15'shop Polk personally and well, and, aside from all political questions or considerations, always regarded him us a pure, Christian gentleman—an opinion that we have never changed, Lotus not judge' thn dead. To their own Master they stand or Jail: Nkw Hopk CHURon, Fifteen Mile* from June . My Dear Lilly: Since I heard of your marriage, Fhave been more constantly en gaged than I have been in any campaign 1 havo ever made, and so havo not found time to write to you as 1 had hoped.

Be always kind and considerate of tho feelings and lights of others, and you will be very apt to havo your feelings and rights respected. Watch against impa tience of spirit. If you keep your heart always under the grace of God’s spirit you will be very apt to have your own power of self-control complole and per fect.
