ol the military authorities at these headquarters.

which we invite public attention :

rect representation of Mr. Stephens' views as

of gentlemen who were present at 1,'iherty Hall
during "l.ibra's" visit, concur in Hie statement
lliat his letter was a compilation hum memory,
comprising conversations of two weeks,at various
times, in which many look pari, and that the
impression conveyed hy l.iltra's letter is Inr till-
I'erent front that, prod'ieed hy Ihu conversations
themselves. I have the highest authority for
saving that, as reported hy l.ilira. they are dis
jointed, disconnected, and in no rase "represent
ing Mr. Stephens' views fairly, ami lliat they of
ten represent Hie opinions ol ethers who look
part iu Hie desultory conversations at Liberty
Hall; anti lliat so far from being cognizant nl
tlic purpose ol Hie author to sketeli them tor
publication, Mr. Stephens was utterly ignorant, ot
the existence of l.iltra's letter until it appeared
as a reprint in llie cttlut'ins of llie Chronicle if
Sentinel. A single instance lias been particu
larly noted for its unfairness. Libra relates a
part of a conversation in relation to Mr. Davis,
and his narrative leaves the impression that the
Southern people distrusted Mr. Davis, and Nn-
IriIi assumes that Libra's version is an author
ized attack upon him. The truth is, that con
versation related lo Mr. Jcltcrson Davis’ politi
cal record before the war. Mr. Stephens lieing
appealed to, atllrmcd lliat Mr. Davis was always
known as a Democrat of llie Calhoun school,
lint never made a speech nor gave any evidence
of lieing a secessionist up to the time lie united
in tlie well-known dispatch of the Congressional
delegation to Hie people of Mississippi; and
that, so tar as his knowledge extended, lie did
not believe Mr. Davis ever tavored the ultra views
ot the Yancey school."

Dkaii Sin—Some time since, at a special term
nl the Superior Court ot this comity, three men
were tried tor murder, aud were acquitted. A
short time thereafter one ot them was arrested
aud contiucd in Jail for the same offense. He
was kept in jail a short time, and was sent from
this place to Home iu irons. This mail is still in
prison. I am informed tlmt lie was arrested and
put in prison by the order of General l’ope.—
The murder is allcdgeil to have been committed
during the war, and Hie persons accused, tried,
and acquitted, were Confederate soldiers, and
were paroled at tlie eud of the war. Their pa
rol protected them front the military, as 1 muler-
stand it; and the Constitution ot the United
States declares that no person shall “lie mhject
for the tame of am, to he tteiee put in jeopardy of
life or limb." It is said that General Pope ad
mits that he can not try Mr. Light again accord
ing to the Constitution, but yet he keeps him in
prison.
Ol all the orders of t ieucrul Pope, 1 think Hie
arrest of Light and confining him in prison, un
der tlie circumstances, the most indefensible;
aud yet there are men mean euough to attempt
to excuse it. General Pope’s soldiers guarded
Light and others while lie was in jail; guarded
him while on trial; and when lie was acquitted
5*
diets of juries anti the judgments of the courts
will be allowed to stand; provided, they please
the military! Why has not the press noticed
and condemned, in proper terms, this great vio
lation of tlie Constitution ?
A number of soldiers are now in camps near
Cassville, surveying llie line of battle and de
fenses ot tlie Confederates under General John
ston in 1804. What is this for? How is tlie
Government or any one to be benefitted by this
survey ? Can you give tlie readers of tlie Intel
ligencer any information on this subject ?
We are informed that some one has written to
General Pope, and requested him to send an olll
cer and some soldiers to this place as a guard
during the sitting of the court, and this request
lias been complied with. But what can any
citizen want with a guard? Tlie peop!e are
quiet, peaceable, and orderly. There is about as
much use tor a guard here as there is in the
Intelligencer office to prevent insurrection
among your employees. Can you give your
readers any light on this subject ?

About a month ago Mr. Groetey printed an
t'ditorinl iu llie IWuine, based tin it rumour by
llie telegraph that General Sluadiimu had hevn
appointed Secretary nl War. In Hint nrtloh)
Mr. Greeley niiyn:
" Tlie npiminliiii'iit ot Steadman ns Secretary

Something over u year ago, when General
Steadman was named as tlie then probable sue-
censor of Mr. Slntilon, Mr. Greeley wrote a letter
lo Mr. Johnson, a copy of which was retained
by the friend ol General Steadman who deliver

As il is very certain Hint General Steadman
will again be urged for llie place of Secretary of
War, and as il is even more than probable lliat
lie may yet lie appointed to that office, llie lore-
going "editorial and letter lieeniiio interesting.

The Dayton, Ohio, ledger relates tlie follow

” A tew evenings ago, a lady residing in the
Southern part of tlie city’, Iclt home to make a
call on a friend up town, requesting her husband
to call for her at an early hour. At eight c ' clock
finding her husband had not come lor .. r, she
started home alone. She had not gone lint two
or three squares, when she observed a man step
out aud follow her. Tlie lady walked straight
on lor a short distance, tlie follow still following,
when she turned square off at the first corner
and went across the street. He still walked niler
tier. At tlie next corner she turned the corner
again, to avoid the scamp, but lie pursued her
like a wild beast alter its prey. The lady then

pursuer. In a moment ho emerged from un
der tlie bridge, and came closely ou toward
tier, and so followed for two or three squares,
till within a short distance ol the lady’s house,
when she suddenly stopped and said to her pur
suer : “8ir, you have billowed me so far, now
come along and go homo with me.” The fel
low was but too glad to embrace tlie opportu
nity, ami stepping"up, she look Ids arm and es
corted him to her home. In Hie fool walked,
and was but seated wlten the lady called her
husband and explained Hie circumstances to
him, who at once proceeded to give tlie impu
dent rascal a good ileal more hoot leather and
calfskin Ilian lie had enjoyed since his boyhood
days. Tlie brave gallant went tumbling and
howling into the street, and made the bust pos
sible time out ot lmrm's way."
Wc have been advised that more than one
gallant lias been guilty ol similar impertinence
in this city. We can assure sttclt tlmt it will be
well (or them to take warning from the above,
otherwise “hoot leather and calfskin" will be a
trilling reward iu comparison to what they will
nost surely receive upon a repetition of their
rflenccs in that line ol promenading. “A word
to tlm wise,” we trust, “will bo sufficient!”

Death or Prominent Citizens.
The Albany Acte* of tlie 17th instant, contains
the following sad intelligence:
“ Death of J. 1*. Strozieh.—We regret to
announce the death ot this excellent man and
citizen, which occurred on Saturday last, on his
plantation near our city. The community lias
lost a good citizen, anil Hie neighborhood a good
man, and the poor a benefactor. He was buried
in our cemetery on last Sunday.
" Our community is growing poorer. The in

Htrozicr, all of whom were men ot prominence,
aud their loss is severely felt, hy tlie commu
nity.”
We notice also the following announcement
ol ouo of Savannah's old ami most prominent
merchants in tlie News it Herald of the iHth
instant :
“The melancholy intelligence was received
here yesterday ol the death of Edwin E. Hertz,
a prominent citizen ol this city, lie died at llie
Saratoga Springs on Monday. The deceased
was a native of Charleston, hut had resided in
this city tor over twenty-five years, and during
that time was associated with two of our most
respectable business houses, viz : K. E. Hertz
A Co., and Culicns A Hertz. He was about lilty
years ot age, anil was universally respected for
his sterling integrity and goodness of heart.—
He leaves many relatives, and a large circle nl
endeared friends to mourn his loss."
marriage Extraordinary,
We notice tlie following item in one nl nor
exchanges:
“ Mr. Dawson,of Georgin, anil Miss McDaniel
of Washington City, were married last week in
Glenwood Cemetery, near that city, by the siifi
of the grave of the bride's mother ! Tint Wash

The New York Keprexx, of tlie ffitli instant,
says; “Tlie price of gold is kept up hy the
Jacobins who are clamoring for tliu impeach
ment ot il,o President, and who live and thrive
st when tlie country is most disturbed. Ninety
days lifter Lee’s surrender to Grant gold receded
to 125, and there is no good reason why it should
lie higher to-day than then, except iu Hie hail
laitli ami want of common sense of tlie Jaco
bins, many of whom are interested iu those pc-
dilations and speculations which arc best con
cualcd wlten tlie. people ale most in trouble.
The two hundred millions of debt paid off since
the war ended, ought of itself to keep tlie gold
not above the price il was two years since. But
we shall have neither the resumption of specie
payments, peace, good order, nor low prices, so
long as the Radicals rule. A change of policy
ami a change ol men is absolutely demanded by
every moral, social, aud political interest. One
way to hasten resumption and to reduce the
price of gold, is In restore more of public faith
and private credit than can exist in the present
order ot things, and this cannot lie done so long
as tlie Wades and Sumners, the Stevenses and
Hie Kelleys, arc masters of our Fcdrrnl Icgisln

Man as an Article or Food.
ft was formerly supposed Hint the relish witli
which certain savage tribes ate their enemies
arose from the gratification of tlie passion of
revenge. Within the lust few years, however,
it lias been clearly shown that Home of llie bur-
bariuu man-eaters are really fond ol human
flesh for its own sake—tkat they enjoy it as a
civilized epicure enjoys turtle soup or veuizou.
Your Fejee Islander, now, thinks the greatest
iraiae he can bestow upon any edible is to say
t is "as good as a dead man." The Fcjeans have
plenty ot provisions; but they consider "long
pig”—their pleasant name lor human flesh
—tintch finer titan pork, beef, or mutton.—
modern traveler tells us that one of
these chiefs—the head man of the Raki
llie, to have eaten nine hundrccT persons !—
It is nlso stated that your Fcjcun, us a rule, relish
es “ long pig” most wlten it lias been roasted
alive! Tlie New Zealanders, on tlie oilier hand.,
do not consider man’s flesh as a delicacy, but cat
dead lieroesand “ wise men ” (whether they have
been friends or enemies make no difference",) with
tlie idea that they imbibe tlie valor anclintellec
lual qualities of the deceased during tlie process.
Tlie “noble savage” of Terra del Fuego neve
eats any of his own people, except wlten otlic
meat is remarkably scarce, although always
ready “ to take in ” the shipwrecked stranger.—
In severe winters, if we are to believe Admiral
Fitzroy, tlie Terra del Fuegoes, “ wlien they can
obtain no oilier food, take Hie oldest woman ot
their party, hold her head over a smoke made by
burning greeu wood, pinch her throat and choke
her,’ utter which site is served up to her friends.
Tlie barbarians, on lieing asked why they did
not eat tiieir dogs instead ol their old ladies,
naively answered that their dogs caught otters,
hut that tlie venerable grandmothers anil aunts
did not. l’robubly tlie majority of even the
lowest order ol savages prefer fish and yams to
human flush, hut it is nevertheless true tliat there
are several tribes in Australasia, Africa, and tlie
Mouth Sea Islands that actually hanker alter it
There is some consolation, however, in the assur
ance given us hy travelers that most of these
anthropophagi prefer colored persons to Cauca
sians as table luxuries. Tills fact is certainly en
couraging to the missionary interests; but then
there are indiscriminate feeders among savages
as well us civilized races, so that now and then
a missionary suffers.

Journal of Commerce
I Rcml you nil extract from a letter written hy
nn olil Onurlenton merchant, who linn, during
llm past two months, traveled extensively through
South Carolina, Georgin, and a portion of Ala
tiama. The writer nl the letter is a careful ob-
Hcrvcr, not given to looking loo Invoruhly on the
bright side of tilings. Fimr years of desolating i
war liroke all our hanks at, llie South; the cm ,
runny of the country, which amounted to almost I
ns much ns the whole debt of llie Hulled Stales,

towns nndeiliea were destroyed , ruin wax spread I
broadcast throughout the limit. Gut' people, |
however, have lull I” them their land, which is I

1 have made, during the i.umtiier months, an
extensive lour, lirsl through the Slates \\ here the I
farms are worked hv freed eolon d labor; and re |
ci'iitly through the West, where while, labor pre- j
vails. To my litter surprise the farms are much
hitter cultivated ill. the South limit the West.—
If llm politicians will only let the South quietly
reconstruct their soil, the crops, instead ol being
worth tout hundred millions ol dollars per an
mini, will iu a short time lie worth a thousand
millions!
The negroes certainly have a greater incentive
work now than when they were slaves.
My experience during the past two yean
proves that they do timcli heller, under the cii
umstanees hy which they are surrounded, than
mild In' exjs'eled. It is estimated licit llie
South lias lost three thousand million dollars hy
llie abolition ol slavery. Il the Ireed or colored
labor can Ik; utilized —that is, if the four millions
of men and women who were recentIv slaves,
an produce hy their labor ns much cotton, corn,
sugar and rice now as they did Indore the war,

enllli, and again become great and prosperous.
What we want, above a I things, is peace. I’o-
lilieal ainirehy is ruin. G. W. W.
Tlie. following is llie extract above alluded to:
"In regard to the commercial prospects of our
Southern country, I am nitieli more hopeful than
‘was before my inland trip, and rather more
hopctul than you seem to lie at the present mo
ment. Wlten you remember Hint Hie Soli’ll) the
past year has luid little money to spare except
ior bread nud for appliances lor planting, you
cannot wonder Hint securities of all kinds iiave
been, and are very cheap, lint hear in mind
that llie wlieal, and oat crops Iiave been heavy,
that corn is made and is abundant, mid Hint cot
ton in general looks well, and yon w ill have
reason to believe Unit tlie coming fall and win
ter will produce great commercial changes. Tin
money value ot Southern crops cannot. In 1 less
than lour hundred million dollars, ol which the
negro will receive above a quarter, every dollar
of which lie will spend at llm South, and as tlm
planter has made, generally, his provisions for

money. What can lie do witli il? He cannot
buy negroes, lie will not invest iu Northern
securities—possibly not iu Governmental. He
has no taste to improve Ids dwelling, and lie
will get tired ot hoarding gold. Is il not, there
fore, a fair inference that lie w ill begin to seek
Southern securities? And wlien tlm hall begins
to roll there will be a rush nud a great advance
iu their value. 1 sought lor the "cause of the
rapid building up ol Atlanta. It was not done
by Norlhurn capital—but largely through money
owned by planters—who prefer mortgages in
Allantn to any oilier security. They have in
many cases loaned their money at 7 per cent,
interest lo rebuild their favorite city. And iu
Georgia eveu now they can find capital to build
.factories, go on with railroads anil other im
provements. What will it be wlien four hun
dred millions more money is put afloat ?
The political horizon is dark, but not hopeless;
tlio storm will soon blow over, while the great
masses of our people will quietly go on with

John S. Harry, Constantine, Michigan:
My Dear Sir— * * * Y T our allusion to
onr interview in New York in 1800, calls up
inauy memories— some pleasant, and more that
arc sail, i remember how faithfully, in my fee-
lile way, 1 warned my countrymen of their im-
pending calamities. "I had, at Hull time, well
di-lined conceptions ot llie perils that threatened
our then happy and prosperous country. My
lorelMidings have been realized; the South lias
lieen overrun, our prosperity destroyed, our labor
system overturned, our capital swept away, our
social organization latally remodeled, and our
civil governments substituted hy military despo
tism. Tlie whole country—North, Smith, East
aud West—fools llie shock, and constitutional
liberty writhes iu the throes of expiring dissolu
lion. Tlie future darkness is scarcely relieved
hy a single rny ol liopu. And it seems tliat we
have uot reached tlie “lowest deep" of our woe,
The ruling powers seem bent upon our still
greater humiliation. Tlie lliomo is one on which
it is foo painful to dwell. Reason seems to iiave
surrVndered the sceptre of statesmanship to liliud
and vindictive passion. Wlmt is lo Is) tlie result
God only knows, aud flu only eait rescue tlie
country from tlie worst late lliat ever fell upon
a once free, prosperous ami happy people.
Perhaps you may lie, in sumo degree, interest
ed in wlmt is personal to mysull. As you per
haps know, I resisted secession as long an it was
an open question, lint wlten my Stale rcsolvm)
iqmii it, I east my lot with tlm'fortunes of my
people, Iccliug confident tliat we should “reap
llm whirlwind.’’ I have not been disappointed;
ami, though I never cherished an emotion of
Imslilily to the Constitulion, or llm Union of our
forefathers under it—though l Iiave spent quar
ter of a century in trying to uphold both—yet
now I find inysflt, at llm end of such a career,
disfranchised and assigned lo a poshimi, ill re-
spccl to pnlilie.il anil civil rights, inferior to Hint
of my former slaves. My Imnm is in the track
of Sherman's marsh. His army destroyed near
ly everything I pnsNcs-tcd, including my private
papers imd title deeds, and reduced me from
comfort to poverty. II I were young, aud cotild
lie let alone, I might rally Ironi my prostration ;
Iml ul my lime ul lile, in view o'l till) presenl
siirrmuidilius, aud llm darkness tliat curtains the |
lulure, I scarcely hope lo lie iilile to feed and ;
elntlm tlm lauiily. I say tlmsu things in no spirit .
ol imiimidy nmiuing. Poverty is a misfortune ; !
hut 1 would welcome il if, hy tlm sacrifice, I
could tiring hack In life llm lilierliesof my cmin-
try and ihu glories of llm old Union, lint “ It \
Hum fail." I am, very respectfully, your obe
dient servant, IlKiixi'iiKi. V. Johnson.

From llie ('linrli'rton Me
There are some persons so anxious lo vindi
cate Radical doctrines, and prove tliat antagon
ism between llm whites aud tlm blacks in tlie
South is impossible, that they forget to-day the
arguments used yesterday, in the same manner
that they will assiduously upset to-morrow the
assertions which they set up to-day. This has
beeu particularly shown in the discussion ot the
probabilities of the negroes holding office, and
controlling the municipal and State governments
of the South. First, it is hotly said that tlm
Radicals have contrived to persuade the freed-
men that radicalism is their only salvation ; this
is scarcely cold wlten it is positively asserted
that the negroes know their best friends,mid will
uot desire tu take the political power from those
whom they have kuown so long and well; last
of all it is said that the freediimn have the
majority, but will not make use of tlm power
which that majority gives them. Radicalism,
in truth, has many twists and turns. It will
bluster, and fawn, nndbeg, and bully, as is most
eonvenieut, because it lias but. mm immutable
principle—the maintenance of tlm profitable in-
ilucucu which radicalism coalers upon its lead
ers.
One trick of the Radical party has lately been
exposed. They have seen with tear and sur
prise that the tlioughl nl negro supremacy, and
ieu States governed liy negroes, lias filled the
Northern WM witli alarm mul indignation.
Galitornia and Maine Iiave told them that this
feeling wus no vain and idle idea. Tlm vote at
llm polls has taught them tliat. tlm North will
not endure that "Hie newly emancipated slave
shall he made a State Representative or Federal
Congressman ; they see Hint the instinctive
feeling of tlm white man causes him to re,ml
ugainst any theory that will elevate the negro at
the expense of his mvn nice, or Hint will make
ilseil known hy the Radical cry of “/lawn with-
tlie intelligent white, and I’y with tlm ignorant
black.”
The Radical leaders were compelled to sec
these things, and they endeavoured quietly to
cheek their further spread. They hinted, and
suggested, that it would lie heller that llie ne
groes should not at frst pul themselves promi
nently forward; and tliat they had belter pre
tend to he willing to he governed hy while
representatives. Hot these hints leaked mil ;
ami, ns soon as they were made public, n
was, of course, denied"licit they were anything
more Ilian much!nations ol the imivp'eiiiaiit
rebels, lo throw shame and conlusimi upon Hie
cver-triiimplmnt Radicals.
la the Mobile Tribune, however, i is a serled
upon authority said to lie good, lii.u Gen I’opu
has sent instructions to the loyal league at Mn
bile to exclude negroes from tlm coming conven
tions. Similar instructions are said to iiave lieen
given in Georgia; and that which originated in
the fears ot tlm leaders of the parly in the North
is turned to good account by llie white Radieils
of llm South. These while Radicals, hold that
to llmm was the victory, and lo them are the
spoils. Negroes, in their idea, are not ; .n,j.l
enough lo sit in a convention, much less hold an
office that has salary and honors attached to it.
Tlm negro tuny vote, lint only for (lie white radi
cal ; negro must not vote for negro!
The uxplaiiution is simple enough. There is
in the South a swarm oi Radical adventurers,
who have uo capital hut their assurance am/
radicalism. These people are looking after "the
loaves and fishes.” They want lo make tlii'ir
polities pay; they never had any intention of
giving llicir negro hrelliren anything lint tlm
shell ol tlm oyster, hut it is somewhat strange
Hint they should have unmasked so soon. These
melt, who prate ol Hie capabilities and iiitelli
geneo of tlm negro, would now exclude them
front positions ol trust and profit, because they
are grossly ignorant and stupid.
But will tlm negroes allow themselves to lie
made use of by such persons? Will limy he eon-
tent to hold tlm reins and not guide in the race ?
It is very doubtful; and in tlm great majority <>1'
cases tlm ignorant negro is to Im piulerred to llm
adventuring while Radical!

Of the epidemic tlm Galveston Civilian, of
tlm 13th, says; The epidemic shows no decided
change, though tlm mortality is gradually de
creasing. There were 20 intermeuts yesterday,
and 23 the day before. The whole number, from
all diseases, sinre the beginning of the epidemic
(.Inly 24,) up to last night, was 980. To-day will
probably swell it to 1,000.
The Galveston Hiilletin, of tbe 13th, says
There were but 17 deaths yesterday, 1C ot which
worn from the lever. These figures arc more
satisfactory, and it is lo lie lioped but a premo
nttioii of a greater reduction Irom day to day
until tlm death-dealing ntansler departs from our
midst.
Tlm Houston Board ol Health has declared
the yellow fever in that city epidemic. Tl
Telegraph says il was well known lo all persons
there, two weeks since, Hint it was raging as
