ATLANTA, GEORGIA
Tuesday Momlng. dune l a, 1807.
' * PollUeal.
It is slated in official circle* at AVtshlnglon,
that the Attorney General holds, that State offi
cers cannot boremovod in virtue of tho Judg-
ment o( military commissions by tho Southern
military commanders. Wo have already stated,
says tho National Intelligencer, that his opinion
went the length of totally denying tho power of
those commanders to remove such officers in any
case. In respect to appointments to HU vacan
cies, however occasioned, he also holds that the
reconstruction acts (so-called) contemplate an
election by tho people. It is scarcely necessary
to add that the President and Cabinet concur
with the Attorney General in these views, rs wo
have heretofore stated that the, opinion as a whole
was approved ol by them.
In connection with this topic, says the same
journal, wo may also say that the report tele
graphed henco Hint tho President will not tako
any immediate action iu reference to" tho re
moval of Governor Wells by Geuoral Bheridau
is at least premature, if not altogether un
founded.
Whatever may bo mooted iu regard to the
power of the several district commaudors, to
remove front office the civil officers of any of
their respective commands, "it cannot for a mo
ment be contended, or even pretended,” says
the same paper, “that thcro is in any part or
passage ol the reconstruction statutes, a single
paragraph, line,, or syllabic, conferring upon
| them the authority to appoint auy civil officer.—
Iu making such appointments they have clearly
and unquestionably transcended any power con-
f ferred upon them, and have done so at their
peril. Even if it were conceded, for argument’s
| sake, that they are clothed with authority in auy
I case or under any circumstances to suspend or
) remove, it cannot be shown that they havo any
power to appoint. Although it may be claimed
; that they have the right under the statute to nul
lify or destroy a Slato Government, no allega
tion can be sustained to the effect that they are
authorized to creato or build up a civil govern
ment in any State or Territory. This is the pe
culiar and inalienable right of the people them
selves ; it is exclusively a popular function—a
popular right, of which neither the Executive
nor Congsess can ever divest the people.”
In regard to the opinion of the Attorney Qcn-
s : end as received in official circles at Washington,
jj it has created no little excitement in the North-
I ern press, especially that of New 1 ork. Of the
| Tribune it is said, that after a day’s interval, it
jj; thus delivers itself of the following threat:
I; “ Should the presumed opinion of the Attorney
ft general Is’ enforced, it will be hut for asliort time
D only for as certainly ns such interference witli
| the law is attempted will Congress meet in July."
We presume, then, that Congress will meet in
I July, for we have no ^nubt that tho Attorney
1 General’s opinion will be enforced, and that the
I opinion embraces what is said of it by the papers
if at Washington. We havo read, though, of one
5 “ Owen Gteiuloicer,’’ an irate Wclclmiau, who as-
1 sorted that lie could “ call spirits from the tasty
6 deep," to which reply was made, “ Why, so can
K 1, and so can any one, but will they come when
| yofi do call for them?" Mr. Greeley may call
I for Congress to assemble in July, but Congress
1; may not heed the call. What then ? we leave
If the Tribune to answer.
We notice, too, in our exchanges that reaction
p against radicalism in the North and West is pro-
ti greasing. At the charter election in New Lon-
•S don, Connecticut, on Monday, the 10th instant,
« the radical ticket was defeated by an average
III majority ol 1)5, and at Waterbury, in the same
P State, and on the same day, the Democracy car-
ried the elections by an average majority of 300.
T Waterbury last year was carried by the Radi-
> S' cals.
Ili- At un election just held in Illinois for Judge
®i ol the second grand division of the State, cm-
ti l bracing 33 counties, which so late as last No-
vember gave a Radical majoritory of 3,044, the
I!' Democratic Conservative candidate for Judge
v was elected by a majority of over 4,000 votes.
I# These signs are indications of a change in po-
||, litical sentiment North and West. Radical rule
H does not seem to promote Radical strength,
pi Hus the political tide turned, and will Radical-
people, and produce that which will command,
not only national currency in abundance, but
gold, throughout tho world. Let tho South alono,
and her pooplo to their owu enterprise and- in
dustry, with Providence to favor them, and she
will soon escape tho financial troubles that havo
bo crippled her since tho day of the “ surrender.”

Financial.
The financial condition of tlie country is now
a most deplorable one. This is felt not only in
commercial circles North, Out iu all business cir
clea North and South, as it lias been most se
riously felt by tlie producing circles of the South
during tlie two past years, and up to date. Re
ceutly in tlie North, the times “so out of joint,'
in a financial sense, has produced many finan
c!ul doctors, whose remedies have been given to
the public, “free gratis, for nothing.’’ What
seems to be most desired is a stable financial
policy. To bring this about, many financial ays-
| tcuis have been proposed. Tlie most recent of
these—one that seems to attract much attention
—emanates from Mr. Colgate, Hie well known
dealer iu gold and public securities iu Wall
street, in the form of ft letter to tho Assistant
Treasurer in New York. Briefly, this is Mr
Colgate's system, or cure, for tlie financial evils
under which the country now sufiers:
The substitution oi legal-tender notes for the
National Bank notes, the Treasury lo purchase
tlie bonds deposited as security at a premium,
and assume Ilia payment of tlie outstanding
notes, the latter lo be deducted from tlie price ol
tlie bonds, aud to lie exchanged lor greenbacks
on prctfcntiition.
Tho reduction of tho paper circulation, lour
millious per month, la-ginning May 1,1868, until
tlie outstanding volume is reduced to the mini
mum of live hundred millions, exclusive ol
fractional currency. This would continue the
contraction until about 1872.
This is mult urn in jmreo, to say the least of
Judging from its reception by tlie New York
press, Mr. Colgate’s system will do. Some sueli
measure—says that able journal, the New York
Jicpreu—"as this will undoubtedly he brought
E fuiward at tlm next session ol Congress.”
Tlie same paper, however, states Hint tlie large
payments from llie Treasury in Hie last fortnight
have given great case toMie money market
Dial government securities are firm botli at home
and abroad.
While the government Treasury is thus help-
iug the North, no help comes to llie South, save
[flhroiieh her own productions. In her wheat
Ucrop, now nearly harvested, she helps herself
f some extent ul least, from the terrible financial
pressure that bus been upou her for some lime
past, aud by which tlie usual energy aud
pdustry of her people have been paralyzed to
Igrcat extent. And in her growing crops of corn
Jiind oi cotton—promising now abundant yield-
four people hope for still greater relief. With
jiSvoice iu the national council, the South must
j jtficuve the financial policy of Hie government to
W r W. directed by the North. Whatever the system

Tho Power ofTl.e mUiury Commander.
-Opinion of *ho AUorne* General.
Washinoton, June IT.-Tho opinion of the
Attorney General is too elaborate for H.o tele
graph, aud Urn reasoning too close for a synop
sis. The following verbatim extracts cover tho
conclusions:
I find it impossible under the provisions of this
act to comprchond such an official as a Governor
of one of these States, appointed to offleo by one
of these military commanders. Certainly, ho is
not tho Governor recognized by tho laws of tlie
State elected by tlio peoplo of tho State, and
clothed as such with Hie Cider Executive power.
Nor is he appointed as a Military Governor for a
State which has no lawful Governor, under the
pressure of an existing necessity, to exercise
powers at large. The intention, no doubt, was
to appoint him to fill a vacancy occasioned by a
military order, anil put him in the place ol thc
removed Governor, to execute the functions oi
tlie office as provided by law. The law takes no
cognizance of bucIi an official, and he is clothed
witli no authority, or color of authority.
What is true as to the Governor, is equally true
as to all the other legislative, executive and judi
cial officers ol the State. If the military com
mander can oust one Irom his office, he
can oust them all. If ho can fill one vacancy,
lie can fill all vacancies, and thus usurp all civil
jurisdiction into his own hands, or thc hands of
those who hold their appointments from him
and are subject to bis power of removal, and
thus frustrate the very right secured to thc peo
ple by this act. Certainly this act is rigorous
enough in the power which it gives. With all
its severity, the right oi electing their own offi
cers is still left with the people, and it must be
preserved.
I must not bo understood as fixing limits to
tlie power of the military commander in case of
an actual insurrection or riot. It may happen
that an insurrection in one ol these States may
be so general and formidable as to require the
temporary suspension ol all civil government,
and the eUablislimcnt ol martial law iu its place.
And the same thing may he true as to local dis
order or riot in reference to the civil government
of the city or place where it breaks out. What
ever power is necessary to meet such emergen
cies, the military commander may properly ex
ercise. I confine myself to the proper authority
of the military commander where peace and
order prevail. Where peace and order do pre
vail, it is not allowable to displace tlie civil offi
cers and appoint others in their places, under an
idea that tlie military commander can better per
form liis duties and carry out tlie general pur
poses of the act by tlie agency of civil officers ot
his owu choice, rather than by tlio lawful incum
bents. Tlie act gives him no right to resort to
such agency, hut does give him therightto have
a sufficient military force to enable him to per
form iiis duties and enforce liis authority within
the district to which he is assigned.
In tlie suppression of insurrection and riot,
llie military commander is wholly independent
of the civil authority. So, too, in the trial and
punislimcnt of criminals and offenders, he may
supersede tlie civil jurisdiction. His power is
fo be exercised iu these special emergencies, and
the means are put into his hands by which it is
to be exercised: that is to say, a sufficient mili
tary force to enable such officer to perform his
duties and enforce his authority, and military tri
bunals of his own appointment to try and pun
offenders. These are strictly military powers,
be executed by military authority, not by the
civil authority, or by civil officers appointed by
hint to perform ordinary civil duties.
If these emergencies do not happen, if civil
order is preserved, and criminals arc duly prose
cuted by tlie regular criminal courts, the military
power, though present, must remain passive,
proper function is to preserve the peace, to
acfpromplly when tlie peace is broken, and re
store order. When that is done, and the civil
authority may again snfely resume its functions
the military power becomes again passive, but on
guard and watcbtul.
This, in my judgment, is tho whole scope of
the military power conferred by this act, and in
arriving at this construction ot the act, 1 have
not found it necessary to resort to tlie strict con
struction which is allowable.

Tlie Surratt Trial.
Washington, June 17.—In opening for thc
prosecution, after describing tlio assassination
tho District Attorney said: The prosecution
would show to tlio entire satislnction of the jury,
by competent and crediblo witnesses, that the
prisoner at the bar, John II. Surratt, was then
and thcro present, aiding and abetting in the
murder. Would show that at tho time of tho
murder he was in front of Ford’s Theater, co
operating with John Wilkes Booth. They
would hear what tlie prisoner there said ; they
would know him as the partner of Bootli; they
would know him as tlio director of tho buffet
tlmt pierced the head of the President, and di
rector ol the knife that fell on the throat of the Sec
retary of Slate; they would know that tlie com
panionship then and there between llie prisoner
and Booth wus uot accidental, but was the result
of long and premeditated plans and associations.
First witness that testified lo a detailed ac-
ount of thc killing, was Sergeant Jas. M. Dye.
Witness is a recruiting agent in tlie United States
army, and is now stationed at Philadelphia. In
April, 1865, belonged to battery C, Independent
Pennsylvania Artillery, at that time stationed at
Camp Burry, at intersection of 11 street and Bal
timore turnpike. Was in Washington at the
time ol tlie murder with Sergeant Robert Cooper,
in an oyster saloon. Went tlierelVpm to Ford’s
Theater. Went from the theater at 0.15 o’clock ;
saw President Lincoln's carriage there at the
time. Street light directly iu front of the thea
ter, Irom large lamp. Saw numbers come out
irom the theater at end ot acts. Before they
came down heard a conversation there, in which
Joint Wilkes Bootli took a part.
Mr. Pierpont.—What was that conversation ?
Objected lo by Sir. Merrick, on the ground that
there was no connection between Booth and
Surratt.
Sir. Pierpont said that the grounds were appa
rent. Sir. Bradley said they must lay some
grounds to show that Booth was connected witli
thc prisoner.
Sir. Pierpont.—We intend to connect them.
Tlie court said the evidence could be taken,
and if the prosecution failed to connect parties,
ought and would be ruled out.
Witness resumed. The first person who at
tracted liis attention was Booth conversing wilh
a low, villainous looking person at tlie end of
the passage. It was but a moment before an
other joined diem, one neat iu appearance and
neatly dressed. He entered into conversation.
A rush of people came down from Hie theater,
aud Bootli said to tlie others ho thought lie
would come out now, ns witness thinks, referring
to the President. They alligued themselves
along tlie space by which the President would
come to liis carriage. They waited eagerly for
Ids appearance, but he did not come, and they
again hurriedly had a conversation. Ouo exam
ined tlie carriage, and Bootli went iuto the rea-
tuuraut. The parties who came down had gone
up again. Booth remained in tlie restaurant
long enough to take a drink, aud came
out, went iu passage leading to thc stage but re
appeared iu a moment, aotl the third party,
neatly dressed, stepped up and called out Hie
time, looked at the clock, and stated the time to
the other two. Tho ono who called the time
went up towards H street. He did uot remain
long, he came down again, looked at Hie clock,
and called the time again, looking dlrecUy at
those two, and waa somewhat excited. He
turned on bis heel and went up (gain. It was
