SAVA* XAJL> P KID AY, MAY 12. 1965.
The Rais. —Tlie land was blessed with a
bounteous fall of rain last night. It seemed
indeed, fora while as though the windows ot
heaven were open, in snch volume did the
torrent* descend. The rain commenced at
nightfall in thunder-showers with vivid light
ning and heavy thunder, but later In the eve
ning settled down into a steady and bounti
ful' fain. Every drop of rain was of priceless
value to the thirsty soil, and will do much
to aave the crops iu this region, which has
suffered considerably Uom the long-contin
ued drought.
The streets were completely submerged at
times by the floods, aud the unlucky pedes
trian who ventured out Into the pitchy night
found himself iu an almost uufordable stream
at every crossing
Operations of the Dog Law. —The dog
law which went into operation on Wednes
day last, has been very ' beneficial iu its re
sult?, a large number having been taken up
and impounded. To the paroled prisoners
and others, it is a source ol employment.
Yesterday iu all portions of the city dog
catchers were on the alert. It was impos
sible for a stray canine to escape that was not
muzxled. Thu streets are now clear of these
nuisances, as is also the market, yet it is to
be feared that as soon as the enforcement of
the law expires, the streets will again be fill
ed with them, as many owners of dogs are
now keeping them tied or chained up.
Country Produce Coming to Market.—
We noticed yesterday evening at the Market
a large number of carts from Tatuall and
Bulloch Counties. They brought to market
poultry, eggs, jerked beef, honey, sweet po
tatoes, etc. From various indications we
may expect in a few days larg# arrivals of
carts with produce. Our farmers iu the ad
jacent counties have long desired to trade
with 3avaun#h, as wa3 their custom, and
they wish to sell their produce at fair prices
and obtain supplies at rales approximating
those established for the sale of their pro
dufcts.
Again they have unbounded confidence in
the currency of the United States Govern
ment, believing that it will never depreciate
in value and become worthless, like that of
the Confederate States. These farmers,
sturdy and bronze-visaged, have long desired
peace, that they might till their lands again,
aud they all talk now ns if they anticipated
a brigut future.
Blanche, Tray and 3weetheart. We will
State for the beueflt of those who may lose
valuable or pet dogs through the enforce
ment of Special Order No. 32, that the dog
pound.is situated upon St. Julian street, east
of Liu ville’s Foundry, aud opposite Franklin
(Reservoir) Square. Dogs can be recovered
by .owners from this institution by the pay
ment of two dollars. An invalid soldier at
the pound sells muzzles for dogs.
Improvement of our Whasf Frontage.-**
A decided improvement is now in progress on
the buildings fronting the river. They are
receiving a coat of dove colored wash.—
That part of the city which is
observed on approaching it on the
river, instead of blackened walls, will
have a uniformity of color along the entire
range of the bluff. The work is being done
by the foioes of Capt. Albert Stearns, our
Street Commisioner.
More akriv ls of Paroled Prisoners.—
The steamer U. S. Graut brought yesterday
aft* noon to the city, about forty paroled
Confederate prisoners, en route for their
homes in Georgia, Florida and Alabama.—
Tfoy are Horn Johnson’s Aimy, and came
from Charleston to Hilton Head, thence to
Savin, ab.
To Qvs Consumers.— We judge that we
may be doing a tavor to many of our readers
in calling attention to one of our new adver
tisements, to the effect that gas-consumers,
delinquent in payment, will have the gas cut
off after the 15th of this month.
Distressing Accident —Yesterday morn
ing John Henry, aged seven years, child of
Mr. James Monahan, while -playing in a
swing in front of its parent’s residence on
Broughton street, fell lrorn the swing, fractur
ing the left arm a few inches from the wrist.
Dr; Win. Gk Bulloch, surgeon, was called in
and set the fractured limb.
Hail. —During the storm of rain yesterday,
hail fell abont the size of a large pea. We
do not apprehend that it ha3 doue any injury
to the growing crops.
Ckarlestos.— A committee have petition
ed Col. Gurney, commanding the post, for
the use of Hibernian Hall on Thursday, the
11th of-May. It was proposed to initiate a
movement toward the restoration of peace
andobedience to the laws of the country.
The request was immediately acceded to
by Col. Gurney.
Meeting at Zion Church.—The meeting
of the colored population for the purpose o £ f
establishing a public press was held yester
day afternoon, at Zion Church. There w ,
a large attendance. The meeting was ad

Maj. G EUi W, T. Shcim&u.
Running tha rounds of the Northern
press there is a great deal of indiscreet mat
ter in relation to the recent action of General
3hem.au—3tuff, that in in cooler urnm-nts.*
when every thing btcapt s sifted and proper
ly weighed, will have to be taken back. We
admit we are sorry the General ever signed
toe now renowned*“Memorandum.” We
admit he should have placed himself on the
basis of negotiation indicated by the Presi
,'deut and studiously followed by General
Grant respecting the surrender of Lee—that
ot taking into consideration military matters
alone, leaving those of a civil character to
the Government.
But, wo do not countenance the idea for
one moment, that General Sherman was in
fluenced by auy other than the most pairotic
of impulses, and an iutense dsriro to brin<>-
the country to a state of repo-e. Had lie
other, and particularly ambitious motives
why should he have stipulated to send the
document to Washington lor approval? We
are afraid meu do not take into consideration
the fact, that the miud ot the country was
irritated by the brutal assassination of our
Chief Mngistate-—intensified almost to the
point of indiscriminate revenge upon the in
stigators of rebellion—-aud that Sherman aud
his auny were not yet apprised of the occur
rence. Neither do they think of the peculiar
position of a commanding officer, and of the
necessity tor his acting with promptitude
and decision in great emergencies. His line
of conduct may have been faulty, to some
extent, but tor this, a generous people should
not impugn the motives of so devoted a pub
lic servant. *
We are not a prophet nor the son of a pr.-.
phet, but we venture 1o predict that in the
cdm light of history, General Sherman will
stftnd out, in a purely military view, as a
genius ot the very first order—that his opera
tions upon the field will have a tendency to
modify the lactic3 of European natious.'and
that niilitary criticism will award him a lofty
positiou among the great commanders of the
world. It becomes us, we think, to be more
careful of the reputation of men, who have
shown heroic devotion to the cause of the
Union and of Freedom, and not suffer a
single mistake to e land entirely gur appreci
ation of the inestimable value of theii ser
vices.
A counsellor in Detroit describes his pov

ISTEBESUSG NEWS.
. From the Charleston Courier of the 10th,
we take the following interesting aud impor
tant news from South Carolina :
From Columbia, S, C.—General Johnston's Dis
patch—Proclamation of the Governor — frc., ye
fc.
We have received from a friend, C. C.
Trumbo, Esq, who left Columbia last Thurs
day, files *of the Columbia Phoenix, with
dates ;o the 4th inst.
_ Governor Magrath arrived in Columbia on
Tuesday, 2d inst, ami took quarters at tbe
Shiver Home. The South Carolina Legisla
ture had tailed to get a quorum, ouiy about
thirty members making tneir appearance at
Greeuville. Those iu attendance uie-t and ad
journed. No definite action had been taken
iu reference to auother meeting.
'f ho following dispatch has been received
by the Governor from General Johnston :
Greensboro, N. C., April 30. >
Forwarded from Chester, May 1,1865. >
His Exctl/ency Governor A. G. Majrath :
The di.-aster in Virginia, the capture of
enemy of all our worships for the prepara
tion of amunition and repairing of arms ;
the impossibility of recruiting our little ar
rny, opposed by ten times its number ; of
supplying it except by robbing our
own citizens, destroyed all hopes of success
ful wur. I have, therefore, made a Military
Convention with General Sherman to termi
nate hostilities iu North and S uth Carali
na, Georgia aud Florida. I made this Con
vention to spare the blood of the gallant little
army committed me, to prevent further suf
fering of our people by the devastation and
ruin inevitable from tbe marches of iuva
diug armies, and to avoid the crime of wa
ging hopeless war. »
J. E. Johnston.
The Fhoeenix, of the 4th, which is the
latest, says: ‘-The official announcement of
this dispatch will appear in our next issue
in the proclamation of the Governor, with
which will appear the letter of General Lov
ell, and other papers of interest connected
with the communication between Generals
Johnston and Sherman.
The following proclamation of the Gov
ernor, in relation to the subsistence stores of
the defunct “Confederate Slates Govern
ment,” is published:
State of South Carolina.
Headquarters, Columbia,)
May 2, 4866. >
Tq the PeopL of the State of South Carolina :
The surrender of the army under the com
mand of Gen. Lee, in Virginia, has been
followed by the surrender ot the army under
the command of Gen. Johnston in North
Carolina. To these armies South Carolina
has contributed, with very inconsiderable
exceptions, her entire male population. The
brave men iu these armies who have sur
vived the bloody war of the past lour years,
are now returning home, as prisoners of
war, on their parole; and unable agaiu 1o
take up their arms until the conditions have
been performed on which their captivity has
beep terminated.
Tbe Government of tbe Confederate States,
itflbe creation of which South Carolina unit
ed with her sister Slates, has suspended its
civil and military authority, and the high
duty of providing measures fer the welfare
of its citizens, by a stern necessity, lia9 been
devolved upon the Government ot the State.
In tills unexpected termination of the ac
tive powers of government, in peace aud in
war, which South Caroliua granted to tbe
common Government of the Confederate
States, circumstances have rendered the con
dition of this State one of peculiar embar
ra?sment. Deeply suffering from the consu
quences of the war, in uiauy respects, in
none is that suffering more peculiarly trying
than in the misery which now affects a con
siderable portiou of the population ; which
threatens a larger portiou, aud may involve
the whole of it in the suffering which want,
approaching starvation, has produced and
will produce. The large supplies contributed
to tbe support of the armies of the Conied
eration had been given at a time when
abundauce enabled tne population to bear its
withdrawal without aggravated sufferin<>\
But the great destruction of means of sub
sistenee at the present time, and the difficul
ties of securing it in tbe future by the next
crop, had, even before the reverse which be
fell tbe armies of the Confederation, satisfied
all that it would be impossible to part with
the supplies which had been gathered for tbe
armies without destroying tbe support of tbe
population in mauy portions of tne State.—
And attempts were made to inform the au
thorities of the Oonfcdhrate Government that
a a only tbe apprehension but the certain; y
of evil consequences would prevent the re
moval of sucu supplies.
YVith the dissolution of the armies of the
Confederation, the necessity for these sup
plies has ceased; with the removal of thafc
necessity arises the stronger obligation upon
the authorities ot the Slate. To that end,
theretore, it is now declared that all subsis
tence stores aud property of the Confederate
States within the limits of the State, should
be turned over to and accounted for by the
agents of the State appointed for that pur
pose. The subsistence and other stores to
be used for the relief of the people of the
State and the other property of whatever
kind to be held lor the common benefit of the
State, aud subject to s ch . distribution as
may be hereafter determined upon by the
proper authorities of the State.
It will be recognized as a duty in the high
est degree obligatory upon the agent* of the
State who will receive these supplies, to pro
vide out of them freely to the soldiers of this
or any other State passing through our limits
; who may need aid. Subject to this claim
\ all such supplies will be held for the purpose
! of ftirnishiug subsistence and support to the
thousands who iu different parts of the State
; are now destitnte and In want of food : ,nd
! whose suffering can only be alleviated by
; this disposition of these supplies.

A magazine, situated near the river, con
taining about ten tuousand pounds of powder
exploded on Tuesday evening. No lives were
lost.
In an editorial on the riotous conduct of
the paroled prisoners passing through Co
lumbia and Augusta,the Phopuixsays: “The
lives ot women and children were endanger
ed two days ago by the insane riding of trooo
ers through Our streets, and more than oue
person bud narrow escapes from rifle bullets
discharged recklessly about the precinct.”
At a meeting of the City Couucil oa tfi»
2d, a reeolution was offered to abolish free
rations at the end of two weeks from that
date. It wa9 laid over until the next meel
ing.
On motion, the Marshals were directed to
visit and search all places within tbe corpo
rate limits of the city where liquor was sold,
and destroy, all found in such places.
The following is the telegraphic intelli
gence in the Phoenix oj the 2d inst.:
-The Federal General Schofield commands
the Department of North Carolina. General
Terry has been appointed Military Governor,
and lias issued a proclamation emancipating
the slaves.”
A public meeting is called to take steps
for the organization of the people to protect
thems.-Ives from the outrages of riotous and
lawLss men.
The Piioauix, in au editorial on the assassi
nation of Presideut Lincoln, says: “It is
manifestly inconsistent wkh the frank emtrse
pursued by tbe Confederate authorities, to
resort to any such proceeding for the good of
the country, even if the death of Lincoln
could be productive of any benefit to us.
We have ndr sympathies with the assassina
tion.”
One marked feature in these papers is the
absence of all notices or advertisements of
“negroes for sale.”
THE LATE HON. JAS. L. PETIGRU.
To Editor Charleston Courier:
Sir—My attention lias been called to an
article in your paper of May 2d, copied from
the New York Times 17th April, and I find
it so full of misapprehensions that I beg
leave*to correct tbe same through the same
medium. The Times say3 :
Characteristic Act of Mr. Lincoln.—lm
mediately after our army took possession of
Charleston the President wrote a letter to the
commanding officer, directing him to inquire
after the family of the late James L. Petigru,
and to provide them with whatever they
might need. He inclosed a handsome sum
as a personal contribution toward'their wauts
if they should be iu a condition to require it.
Special instructions were also given to
secure them lull protection and the "quiet oc
cupation of their home. Mr. Petigru, it
wiil be remembered, was one of tbe most
distinguished lawyers of South Caroliua, aud
stood firm and unmovable, though almost
alone in bis devotion to the Union, through
ail the madness of nullification in 1832, and
of secession at a later day. Like every other
Southern Uni<*i man, he was reduced lopov
e ty by bis course, but Lis high-toned integ
rity and unflinching devotion to principle,
commanded the respect even of his most
bitter political foes. We are glad to learn
that considerable sums of money Lave been
raised iu Boston and New York for the relief
of the surviving members of his family.—
New York Timas, 17th ult.
President Lincoln did very kindly write lo
Col. Woodford, directing that Mr. Petigru’s
family should be protected, but he made no
“personal contribution toward their w’ants.”
My father was not “reduced to poverty by
his course;” he was not rich when the war
began, and the fire of 186 L destroyed his
house and its contents. He suffered in no
way from his political principles; oa tbe con
trary, the Legislature decided almost unani
mously, at tne session of 1862, to continue
the work of re-arranging the code of laws,
so that the income mighi not be lost to Mr.
Petigru, to whom the charge bad been given.
My father was loved as much as he was
respected; during the most stormy days, ho
met with the utmost attention and affection
irom his compatriots, ancl bis absence now
is to be doubly deplored, because tbe coura
geous heart and the strong sense of justice
which never faltered in the path of duly and
houor, cannot to day help the State which,
in wrong or in right, be loved with a true
patriot's devotion.
There have been considerable sums of
money raised in Boston and New York, but
they were for the support of my father’s
elder daughter, who went to reside at the
North ear y iu the war.
Hoping that h« New York Times will also
do me tue favor to insert this,
I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully,
S Petigru Kino.
Charleston, MayG, 1865.
A Private Letter from Gen. diierman.—
The following letter from General Sherman
was addressed to a distinguished soldier and
an old friend. It shows that the hero of.
Georgia has as much modesty as he has
merit,
many kind tokens from the North, but none
gave me more satisfaction than to know that
you wav died with interest mv efforts iu the
national cause. Ido not think that a human
being could feel more kindly towards an
enemy than I do to the people of the South,
and I only pray that I may live to see the
day when they aud tbeilr cbidren will thank
me, as one who labored to secure and main
tain a government worthy of the land we
iuheriled, and strong enough to secure our
children the peace and security denied us.
“Judging lrorn the pre<s, the world magni
fies ray deeds above their true value, and I
fear the future may not reaHze its judgment.
But whatever fate may befall me, I know
that you will be a generous aud charitable
critic, and will encourage one who only hopes
iu the struggle to do a man’s share.
“With great respect.
“Your friend and admirer,
“W. T. SIIKRMAN,
“Major-General.”
A Philosophical Wav op Looking at it.—*
The Newark (Wayne county; Courier oflast
week has the following paragraph:
Since the announcement of the death of
the President, we have had no heart to de
vote much time or attention to our paper • so
we have given up most of the space to cor
respondents and the proceedings and exer
cises of our citizens on the funeral occasion
We have also omitted to give any ol the par
ticulars of the foul assassination, as we
judged that every reader had, ere this be
come lully conversant with ail facts iu the
matter.
It is estimated at the Treasury Department
taut tliL* daily expenses of the government
have been reduced nearly $1,000,000 per day
since the surrender es Lee's army. The
clerical aud other force of the Quartermaster's
Department is to be immediately reduced
fifty per cent,
Harvey Fard, an old inau in New Haven,
was very much affected by the news of Pres
ident Lincoln’s death, and after appearing
much depressed all day, fie dropped dead iu
tfi« evening.
Mr. A D. Richardson states in his forth,
coming work: ria
On the day of Mr. Lincoln’s first inaugu
ration, I travelled in a crowded railway car
in Mississippi and Louisiana. While* th«
tram was stopping and conversation could
be beard through the carriage, someone ,l
iuded to the event Another passenger re.
pLel : “I hope to God he will be killed be
fore he takes the oath.” A third said • “T
hive wagered anew hat that neither i, o ‘nor
Hamlin will ever live to bo inaugurated”
Neaily all piesent belonged to the educated
wealthy, slave holding class—the class whHi
o lginated and conducted the war. Several
expressed approval of these remarks, no
one uttered a word of diss nt * ot
I was in the Cotton States for weeks after
thus, and the subject was frequently alluded
to iu my presence. I heard but one man
condemn the proposed assassination aud' l
was a Unionist. Again and again leadin'-
journal?, winch were called reputable,askedT
L there no Brutus to.rid the world of this
tyrant?’ Rewards were openly r.rowJrf
; .r tLc President's heed. If W.LESKid
then been murdered in Baltimore, eve r
thoroughly secession journal iu the South
would have expressed its approval, directly
or indirectly. Ot course, I do not believe
that tue masses, or all secessionists, would
have desired such a stain upon the American
name; but even then as afterward wh-m
they murdered our captured soldiers, and
starved, froze and shot our prisoners, the
men who led aud controlled the rebels an
peared deaf to humanity and to decency
Chanty would fain hold them insane; but
there was too much method in their madness
The foliow'ing paragraph from tbo late
Hou. Edward Everetts oration at Gettys
burg, expresses as truly to-day as then, the
sentiments of Northern people towards the
leaders of the great rebellion, now, hapnilv
drawing to a close : *
Tue people of loyal America will never
take to their confidence, or admit again to a
share in their Government, the hard-hearted
men whose cruel lust of power has brought
this desolating war upon the land, but there
is no personal bitterness felt, even against
hem. Tney may live if they oan l*wx to
live alter wantonly causing the death to so
mauy thousand fellow men ; they may live
in sate obscurily beneath the sneiter of the
Government they have sought to overthrow,
or they may flee to ihe protection of .he G.v
ernmentof Europe—some of them are al
ready theie, seeking happily iu vain, to ob
tain the aid of foreign jPowers in further
ance of their own treason. There let them
stay. The humblest dead soldier that lies
cold and still in his grave before us, is an
object ot envy beneath the clods that cover
him, in comparison with tho living man who
xs willing to grovel at tho foot of a foreign
Uiioue Tor abaistunco in tlio luin
of his country.
Andrew Jacksou, during thy days of his
Presidency was once assailed as he was de
scending the steps of the Capitol by a furl
ous political opponent who branaislied a
loaded cane and a pistol. It was at tho
height of the Uuited States Bank veto excite
ment, when tho most important interests
weie depeudent upon the momentous ques
tion, whether monopolising capital or the
people should rule. It would have been
wortu millions to get Jackson out of the
way, bqt the gallant old chief completely
cowed his assailant by bis indomitable nerve,
aud aimost in a second, disarmed uin, and
handed him over to the police. The •light
est lack of firmness ou his part might have
sealed his late.
Wilkes’ Spirit argues that President John
so i was laboring under tho effects of poisoc
on the 4th ot Murch last, and quotes as ovi«
dence ot it tho passage iu the letter of in
structions to the assassins,- which said they
“ were at liberty to Uso the blade, the pistol
or the bowl, but they must bear in mind tka
latter had once tailed.” It has been already
discovered that the plot was to nave been
carried out on the 4th ol'March,'aud that
Booth was ou hand near the QupitoL but foi
some reason (perhaps the tkilure to kill John*
son) the scheme miscarried. There may in
scum truth in all this speculation.
