ATLANTA, GEOHGI
Wednesday Morning, April 84, 180/.
Mpcrch or KxMQov. Joseph K. Hrowa at
Savannah,
Ou yesterday wo quoted from the speech ot
Kx-Uovkrsor Brows, dellTcred recently sin
mass meeting in Savannah, ft paragraph or two
relatire to the relations that should exist be
tween the white And black tren of the South,
and admonitory to both of the duty the one owes
to the other. To-day we lay the whole speech
before our readers, as it embraces many valuable
suggestions, and is vindicative of that gcntlemau
from assaults that have been rnado upon him.
Wc have neither the space nor time, to comment
at length upon this speech ol Governor Brown.
Indeed, wo prefer to lay it before our readers
without, in comment, detracting from, or adding
to its influence upon the public tulud. Upon
points embraced in the speech where either our
readers or oursell have diflered with Governor
Brown, time will so soon determine them, in re
ference to our course of action, tlmt we prefer to
bide its decision, as we trust the reader will. Tbe
speech will be found on our first page.
“ Tlte course of Hunnicutt, in Virginia, who
is endeavoring to organize the blacks secretly
against the whites is to be severely reprobated.
Some of the Northern Radical jouruals take
him to task, and at various meetings of negroes
he is denounced. He is evidently a dangerous and
1 vet dent agitator, who will signally fail in carry
ing out his bad purposes."
We clip the foregoing from the Neto York
Commercial, a Republican paper. What is said
of Hunnicutt may be written of more than one
in this vicinity, who shonld be as “ severely repro
bated " as he. “ Dangerous,” indeed, and 11 pes
tilent agitators " are they, who, while the work
qf Southern restoration is progressing, are se
cretly, or otherwise, engaged in stirring up strife
between the races. It takes, however, as runs
the old adage, “ all kinds of peoplo to make a
world,” and Georgia would be a rare exception
if there could not be found within her wide
bounds, Borne ol the same sort of agitators—men
of the Hunnicutt school of morals.
An Important Legal Derlalon.
The Richmond Examiner says "in a late case
in London by tlie bond-holders of the London,
Dover and Chatham Railroad Company, Lord
Justice Cairns gave a decision which, if sustained
on this side of the Atlantic, will shake to its
foundations the credit of such securities in all
cases where they are not supported by mort
gages.
" It was to the eflect that Die bonds of a rail
road company do not run against the property ol
the company, but only against its earnings. The
bondholders were thus turned out of court, and
the property they seized reverted to the posses
sion of the company.”
Trust In Providence.
At a mass meeting recently held in Petersburg,
Virginia, Captain John Lyon, an influential
citizen of that place, in the course of his re
marks, said:
“ No man who has not lived in a slaveholding
community, can appreciate the sacrifice of feel
ings and prej udices, the result of birth and edu
cation, necessary to bring a whole community
to occupy tbe position which we avow, and the
purposes which we declare to-night. We are
not guilty of the folly and wickedness of declar
ing that we have preferred the condition of
affairs that now exists. Our short-sighted wis
dom, so-called, would have led us to different
results. But we believe that there is
“ 4 A Providence that shape* onr end*,
Rough hew them as we may.*
“ And we protess our willingness to accept
what is the result of what infidels call destiny,
and Christians call Providence, and will try to
exercise statesmanship enough to adapt our
policy to the actual condition of society, witli a
view to its highest development, and greatest
happiness and safety.
“Men ot oKnoo. both while and black, hold in

they bam nlwnja desired, wlint ntl meu HUYT iv-
cognize as inevitable. With the exception of a
handful of earnest and honest men in the North,
whom it has been fashionable to call enthusiasts
and fanatics, there is and has been no party
North or South, that intended, or even desired,
the result which has so unexpectedly burst upon
us all. The children of Africa have not to thank
5 .-'* men for their freedom nnd enfranchisement—
Their gratitude and praise are due only to the
* ni Most High, wlio (in the language of the Psalmist,)
: H has brought them up also out of an horrible pit,
V H ont'of the miry clay, and set their feet upon a
{. L rock, and established their goings. They have
' - ‘b found by their expeiicnce that "it is good that a
■ u man should both hope and quietly wait for the
• 2 salvation ot the Lord.” And as surely as the
f !, Good Father of us all, hath heretofore caused the
'- Jo: wrath of man to praise Him, so surely will He
w now and hereafter, restrain the remainder of
| wrath, and defeat the purposes of wicked men
||! who seek to sow the seeds of distrust, suspicion
nj and revenge, in the hearts of the two races.”
Tbe Aspect la Europe.
The intellegence from Europe grows more
threatening, and it seems to be pretty generally
understood that war between Franco and Prus
sia is inevitable, and likely to commence at al
most any moment. It is said Napoleon is trying
„ , to purchase anus in the United States, and that
I ; ^Prussia is steadily arming lor tho expected con-
fflicl. The threatening aspect is having a marked
tect upon the commercial and business inter
its of the Continent, and a financial crash in
I pEugiand is anticipated.
Voluntary Exiles.—The New Orleaus Pie
?Hy une says:
i Over three hundred peoplo sail from this port
I®-day, on the steamer Mansion, for Brazil,
they are most of them from this and neighbor-
; States, nnd leave the country, voluntary ex-
jea, forever. It is a sad and sorrowful fact to
Furthermore,
H UCCord, but it is nevertheless true. , ,
Irltiu < e understand that other vessels are to follow
It . (c uuueisiuuu uiiu inner vessels are 10 loilow
Iftj ?, r ie Mansion, with the same destination, and
h- e jat it is probable they wjll go out full of emi-
™ [ pints. The feeling of discontent, of anxiety, ot
r,pspondency, runs higher than ever—higher
I-fen than immediately after the close of the
j Jar.
: n Briefly, while these and other people have an
IMdoubted right to cast their lots in any direc-
[J^n they may choose, we think they are
Lgong, and that their course will result, in most
to lances, in disappointment and sorrow. They

Ltvnners, and customs, and wflere, except among

/atrecorded in history, and if anything could

iJjly’HE Sleeping Lion.—That imaginative
jbullg man, John W. Forney, calls Thad. Ste-
init’ Confiscation bill " the sleeping lion on the
tfHker’s table." We do not know what the
11 Zjjhman of the radical party, like Forney and
f sen, and loyal leaguers like those who as-
»le in dark and hidden places to plot and
pe against the peace and quiet of the coun-
jvould do were it not for the rod ol confiaca-
|o shake over the heads of the people. They
r d, however, in the end that it is a sorry

The in no wing important and interesting cor
respondence was handset us for publication yes
terday evening. The late hour at which it was
received prevents any extended notice of so Im
portant a correspondence in this morning's issue
of out paper. Perhaps it is well that wo are de
barred tfils privilege, as the correspondence ilscli
needs no expression or comment on our part to
impress itself upon the public mind, especially
in Georgia. There is displayed in it, however, a
frankness, a courtesy, a dignity, on tho part ot
both tho distinguished gentlemen—the military
representative of tho United States and the Geor
gia civilian—which cannot fail to excite the
admiration ot the intelligent render, ami com
mand respect for each in the official position to
which circumstances have assigned them. Wo
understaud lrom this correspondence, and tlte
subjoined “ General Order No. 10,” most clearly
wlmt Major General Pope, tho military com
tnauder of this district, requires of Governor
Jenkins, and all oilier ctvtt. officers of the
State,anil wc trust no instance will occur that
will render it necessary for the former to enforce
the removal trorn office oi auy ono occupying it
by reason ot his disobedience of those orders.—
Thus, to use the words of General Pope, may
be preserved " unimpaired friendly and harmo
nious relations ” not only with Governor Jen
kins, but with all the other civil authorities
of the State.
IliADniuBTxns Tuird Military District, 1
(Glottal*, Alabama, and Florida,) -
Atlanta, (la.. April 17,1667. )
Sir—1 have tho honor to transmit enclosed a
copy of my General Order assuming command
of this Military District. Copies were sent to,
you at the time addressed to Milledgeville.
Paragraph 8, of that order reads ns follows
viz : ,
“III. It is to be clearly understood,however,that
the civil officers thus retained in office shall con
fine themselves strictly to the performance of
their official duties, and whilst holding their of
fices they shall not use any influence whatever
to deter or dissuade the people from taking an
active part in reconstructing their State Goveru-
ment, under the act of Congress to provide for
the more efficient Government of the Rebel
States, and tho act supplementary thereto.”
I have the honor to request that you will in
form me nt as early a day as possible, whether,
when you issued your address to the people of
Georgia, dated Washington, D. C., April 10,
1867, you had seen or had knowledge of the
closed order.
I am very respectfully, your obedient servant,
John Pope,
Brevet Major General Commrnding.
[A duplicate of this letter 1ms been addressed
to you at Washington City.J
Provisional Governor Charles J. Jenkins, Mil
ledgeville, Georgia.
National Hotri.. I
Atlanta, Ua., April JO, 1B67. f
Brevet Major General John Pope, Com’d'g, etc.
Sir—On yesterday evening a copy of u com
mnnication from you, addressed to me at Mil
ledgevillc, on the 17th inst., was handed to me
in this hotel. With that communication was
transmitted a copy of your General Order No. 1,
issued from Montgomery, Alabama, and my at
tention being called to paragraph 3 of llmi or
der. You inquire whether, when I issued my
address to the people of Georgia, dated Wash
ington, D. C., April 10th, 1867,1 had seen or
had knowledge oi your order above mentioned ?
I answer that at that time I had neitiier seen
nor had knowledge of it.
I supposed I was exercising such freedom in
the public expression of opinion, relative to pub
lic matters, as seems still to bo accorded to tbe
citizens of this Republic, not imagining that it
was abridged by the accident of the speaker or
writer holding office.
So much for the past, General, and I will only
add, that in future 1 shall do nud say what I
may believe is required of mo by the duty to
which mv oath of office binds me, aud this, I
(rust, will not involve either conflict or contro
versy between us in the execution of our respec
tive trusts, as I think itmeed not; everything of
this character I certainly desire to avoid.
I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient ser
vant,
[Signed,] CnAni.Es J. Jenkins,
Governor of Georgia.
Headquarters TntRD Military District, I

Atlanta. Ga., April 22, 1657. j
GqvKRNoft— I have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt i« “your letter oi the 20th instant, Tu
, ,, .... .. . , - that your expiaua-
tmu 13 m.tudmtofy, so far as the past Is concern
ed, and I cordially concur witli you in the hope
that our relations in tho future may be harmoni
ous and agreeable.
I would content myself with this answer to
your letter but_ for the following remark which
it contains. You say, “ I supposed I was using
such freedom in tho public expression of opinion
relative to public matters as seems still to be ac
corded to the citizens ot this Republic, not im
agining that it was abridged by the accident of
the speaker or writer holding office.”
This expression seems to indicate that you
think that in some manner, either personally or
officially, you have been wronged by that para
graph of my order which has occasioned this
correspondence, and that I am seeking to abridge
the liberty of speech, in this State, in an unne
cessary and oppressive manner.
I trust that I may be able to disabuse your
mind of this idea. It iB scarcely necessary to
tell you that the late acts of Congress, which I
am sent here to execute, recognize the existing
State government of Georgia as merely provi
sional, and that the object of recognizing it at
all was only that the ordinary coursevif business
in the civil tribunals, and the administration ot
the laws of tlte State by the customary agencies,
might not be interrupted further than was neces
sary ior the strict execution of the laws of the
United Slates. It is not doubted that Congress
might have legislated the present State govern
ment of Georgia out of existence as easily as
they have recognized it ns provisional, and it is
ns little to be doubted that Congress would have
done so, could it have been foreseen that the en
tire machinery of the provisional State govern
ment would be used to defeat the execution of tho
very law by whose suflerance alone it has auy ex
istence at all. It is very clear that Congress did not
intend to recognize or permit to exist, by these
reconstruction acts, a powerful organization to
be used against their execution, nor can such
use be made of the State government of Georgia
without greatly obstructing, if not, indeed, en
tirely frustrating the performance of the duty
required of me by these acts.
The existing Stato government was permitted
to stand for the convenience of tho people oi
Georgia, in the ordinaiy administration of the
local civil laws, and to that end it should be
carefully confined.
It was in this view that paragraph 3 of my
order assuming command was considered, and
it is not easy to see how it can be regarded as
oppressive or unjust.
Holding your office by permission of the Uni
ted States Government, you are.debarred, us I
am, from expressing opinions, or using influences
to prevent the execution of tho laws ot the Uni
ted States, or to excite ill-feeling and opposition
to the General Government, which is executing
these acts of Congress.
With your personal opinions, or those of any
citizen at Georgia, or their expression within the
limits of tbe law, I have nothing to do; hut the
distinction betwotn personal opinion openly ex
pressed in an official capacity, and officinl opin
ion, is too nice for the common understanding.
The influence of your opinions, openly avow
ed, must of necessity be very great with the civil
officers of the State in all its departments, when
the tenure of office is largely dependent upon
your pleasure. Your opinions as a private citi
zen, without official station, and the same opin
ions whilst Governor of Georgia, have a very
different significance, and produce a very differ
ent effect.
I only require that the civil machinery of the
State of Georgia be not perverted so as to frus
trate the execution of the laws of the United
States, aud for that reason, I exact from the civil
officers tiiat whilst they retain their offices they
confine themselves strictly to the performance of
their official duties, and do not use their influence
to prevent the people of the Stato lrom submit
ting to and carrying out the laws of tbe United
States.
In your address to the people of Georgia,
which occasioned this correspondence, you de
nounce the acts ol Congress which I am sent
here to execute, as " palpably unconstitutional"
aud “ grievously oppressive," and advise the
people, whatever may be the decision of the Su
preme Court of the United States, to take no ac
tion under those laws. Whilst you counsel them
not to resist by violence, you at the same time,
by open official denunciation of the law, invite
the very action which you seem tq deprecate.
It is manifestly impossible for me to perform
the duties required of me by the acts of Con
gress, while the Provisional Governor ot the
Stale is openly denouncing them aud giving
advice to the public ia his official capacity, the
resultof which will be to excite discontent and
array Ul« of office holders in tbe
d£d, t° i rMGovernment of the State
Is overthrown, and the Military substituted. I
tliiuk such a change would bo as distasteful to
the peoplo of Georgia as it would be to me, and
yet II tho civil officers o) tho State follow the
example which your Kxc’llcncy has set them,
there will be no escape from such a result
Tito 8d paragraph of my order Imposes no re
strictions on yon to which I am not myself sub
ject; you hold your office by permission of the
United Btatcs Government. I hold mine, as do
thousands of others, both civil and military, by
substantially tho Borne tonure. Custom, old
enough to bo law Itself, restricts us in conversa
tion and action, precisely as paragraph 8 of my
order restricts you.
There is a very simplo mode of freoiug our
selves from such restrictions when they becomo
too oppressive.
In conclusion, Govomor, it seems necessary
for me to say in general reply to the latter por
tion of your letter, that Lite paragraph of my or-
dor to which you object was very carefully con
sidered ; Hint it mcaus precisely what it says,
and that to tbe full extent of my power it will
be strictly cuforced.
My great respect for your personal character
lias made it painful to me to write you tills letter,
hut ns a lair nnd full understanding between us
is absolutely essential to anything Tiko harmoni
ous relations, I liave thought it necessary, even
at the risk of giving offense, to acquaint you
fully with my understanding of my duty, and of
the status of the civil officers of the Provisional
State Governments under the late Acts of Con
gross.
I ngaiu assure you that it shall be my study, as
it will lie my pleasure, to preserve unimpaired
friendly and harmonious relations with you, and
I trust that onr views on tbe subject of this cor
respondence msy be made to harmonize suffi
cicnlly to secure this resuit.
I sm, very respectfully, your obedient servant,

(iro»t Fire at Savannah.
A fire broke out at Savaunali on Saturday
evening, in tlie cotton warehouse of Messrs.
Frisbic & Neason, on Bay street, in which was
stored a large amount of cotton. Tlie building,
with its contents, was entirely consumed. The
News & Herald gives tbe following particulars
Tlie flames had made their appearance but a
short time before the roof fell in, when the cot
ton and the entire inside of the building wereen
veloped in flames, the heat of which was so great
lay street as to defy the near approach of the
firemen, who were promptly on the ground,
working with great energy.
A short time after the falling of the roof, the
wall ou tlie eastern side fell in, crushing a few
small outbuildings in an ndjoining yard, out for
tunately injuring no one. This was almost im
mediately followed by the falling of a part of (he
western wall, which was so sudden and unlooked
(or as to cany away tlie portico attached to the
neighboring frame building, ’on which were a
number of firemen, some of whom were badly
injured by being knocked down in their attempts
to avoid the falling bricks. Mr. C. P. Brown, of
the Washington Fire Company, was badly
bruised on the leg, and received a gash over tbe
right eve by a failing beam while he was inside
the building. Mr. Michael Archibald, of the
same company, while endeavoring to make an
,nco townrds the safe with the hose, fell be-
effects. Mr. James neacnoy wiu badly cut ofi
the head by the falling of tlie wull upon tlie por
tico, upon which he was standing. His wound,
though very painful, is not considered danger
ous.
Several other buildings were damaged more
or less. The entire loss is estimated at $100,000
The building contained from five hundred to
six hundred bales of cotton, of which three hun
dred bales were owned by Major Philip-*!!.
Belin, twenty-five hales ol which were sea is
land. His loss is estimated at $40,000, for which
umount lie was Insured in the agencies of Mr.
Henry Brigham, Woodbridge Brothers, and Mr.
J. T. Thomas.
Messrs. Fnsbie & Neason’s loss in cotton is es
timated at $20,000, which was insured in the fol
lowing companies: Hume Insurance, $5,000 ;
Western Phoenix, ol Chicago, $5,000; Virginia
State, $2,500; Selma Fire and .Marine, $2,500;
Protection, of Hartford, Connecticut, $2,500;
Eufaula Home Insurance, $2,500. This does not
include their loss of book accounts aDd papers,
which is estimated at from $15,000 to $20,,f

Warren Co., Ga., April 12,1867,
John L. Burkualter, i
_ vs. I Assumpsit on Promissory Note
Taos. F. Persons and ( la Warren Superior Court
Wm. Girson. j
The above cose came ou for trial at the late
term of Warren Superior Court. After offering
bis note plaintiff closed bis ease. Delendant
ottered no evidence, relying on the statute of
limitations. The facts, appearing from the noto
itself, on which tlie delendant relied to make
good his plea, were these: That all the credits
on the note, ol payments, were in the handwri
ting of the holder, and none of them signed by
the debtor; and tliut the .note had run, when the
war began, five years one month and ten days.
This suit was begun October 7th, 1866. In rela
tion lo the credits, the court charged the jury
that they were insufficient to stop the statute,
and amounted to nothing so fur as Hie statute
of limitations was concerned. This statute,
having been suspended horn November 80,1860,
only to tbe 1st of September, 1805, when tbe
courts were opened, this note was certainly out
of date, having lacked but teu months and
twenty days of being barred, at the time of the
first suspension; aud tbe statute having run
against it from tbe 1st ol September, 1865, to
the 7lh of October, 1860, when tbe suit begun,
making in all more than six years during which
the statute hud run.

refuses to increase the forces, believing it to be

, Suicide of tub Late State TnKABunKU ok
Tennessee.—Tho Nashville papeis ol tlie 21st
contain information tiiat Dr. R. L. Stanford, late
State Treasurer of Tennessee, committed sui
cide at his homo In Washington county, on tlie
16th instant, by taking laudanum. Dr. Stanford
was elected Treasurer under the Brownlow or
ganization,’ and notwithstanding his unfortunate
associations witli tiiat concern, was generally re
garded as au honest and sincere man. During
his official term the school fttnd of the State was
transferred to the keeping of the Tennessee Na
tional Bank of Memphis, by which operation a
considerable portion of it was lost. This led to
his resignation, and is supposed to have so
worked upon his mind as to have induced him to
take his own life. It is thought that Dr. Stan
ford was overreached by some of the bad men
with whom he was daily brought iu contact.—
The Nashville^/hion it- Dispatch says: Whether
Dr. Stanford has divulged anything in regard to
the transler of the funds set apnrt as belonging
to tlie school fund, is not known here. There is
a dark chapter connected with that transac
tion.
Pensacola and Georgia Railroad Lands.
—Thd agent for the sale of the lands belonging
to tlie Pensacola and Georgia Railroad, Mr.
Walter Gwynn, gives notice that these lands can
now be bought at a reduced figure. They lie on
the line of that road, and embrace some of the
best tracts in the vicinity. Between the Suwau-
uee river and Lake City, where the compa
ny owns large bodies, the country is proverbial
for healthfulness, and is adopted to tlie growtli
of sea island cotton, sugar cane, corn, fruits, and
all tlie oilier productions o( that region. It is
well limbered, nnd, therefore, offers inducements
to lumber meu and those familiar with the tur
pentine business. The road connects with At
lantic and Gulf ports, and thus furnishes an out
let to market. Emigrants cannot go astray in
seeking homes in Florida. If cheap, good lands
are an inducement, they can be easily accom
modated.—Floridian.

TnE War Prospect.—A Washington letter
to the Charleston Courier says :
A war in Europe seems to lie considered ns
inevitable by all tlie diplomatic men here. Tlte
State Department has advices from onr Minis
ters abroad indicating a war as probable, but
not, perhaps, this summer. Tlte Luxembourg
question may be laid over for the present. It
is rumored here tiiat numbers of young men, of
military experience, acquired in oui recent civil
war, are desirous of taking service abroad in the
wars that are impending. It is said that num
bers of Virginia officers will offer their services
to the French Emperor.
An Old Man.—A correspondent at Whistler
Alabama, writes the Mobile Register tiiat there
is in that neighborhood a gentleman who bears
the name of Stanley Monk. He was born in
Dobbs county, North Carolina, near Newbern
on the 19th day of March, 1763, which makes
him one hundred and four years old last March,
lie has I jeon a mau of extraordinarily fine
constitution, and until within a few years past,
would think nothing ol starting on a tour of
several hundred miles on foot, and make an
average of fifty miles per day.
Aid for the South.— 1 The Baltimore Sun oi
tho 19th instant, after enumerating various con
tributions for the relief of the South, says:
. “ The steamer Falcon will take to-day three
thousand bushels of corn and ten thousand
pounds of bacon to Charleston, and the schooner
thirty thousand pounds ol bacon. Tho United
States ship Relief. pl<«cd at the disposition of
flic commissioners by the Secretary ot the Navy,
sailed from New York to-day for this port, and
on iter arrival will be at once dispatched with a

The Biudoeport Bridge.—Tbe Nashville
Union <fc Dispatch, of Saturday, says: The
work on the railroad bridge at Bridgeport is
progressing rapidly. On tlie North side ot tlte
island all the spans are up, but tbe frame work is
not completed so tiiat the supporting trestle
work can be withdrawn. On the South side of
the island there are still three spans to be put up.
The workmen expect to have finished the bridge
by tlie first of May, so that trains can pass over,
Floyd Superior Court.—Tbe court assem
bled at Rotne on Monday. The Courier says
The Grand Jury recommended that, in conside
ration ot tbe very busy planting time, ail the
litigated cases he postponed, and as soou as the
criminal docket could be got through with, that
the court adjourn to next regular term in course.
It was finally concluded to postpone even the
criminal cases, and merely those cases involving
no litigation are being taken up.
The Schoolmaster Shooting Case in
Florida.—The Tallahassee Floridian says that
Jolia Auderson, magistrate of Madison county,
lias been brought to that city under arrest by the
military authorities, upon the charge ot neglect
of official duty in not appointing some one, in
the absence of the proper officer, to execute the
warrant for the arrest of young Pope lor shoot

Disfranchisement.—The opinion of tlie At
