The President to Governor Sharkey.
The Jackson News publishes the follow
ing extract from a telegraphic dispatch
from President Johnson to Gov. Sharkey,
together with a dispatch from the latter:
“In thio time of gloom and apprehen
sion, it is due to the President of the
United Btales, it is due to the people, that
I should publish a dispatch received on
the 30th uit., omitting two lines of a pri
vate naturo.
“ The people will see that they may im
plicitly confide in the President, and that
he oonfides in and wiil trust them for the
protection of their own Government.
They may confidently hope that under
the wise and just policy, the day is not
far distant when ail the funotions of civil
government will be entirely restored un
der tbe Constitution of the United States.
(Signed) W. L. Bharkey,
Prov. Governor of Mississippi.
“Itis believed theracan be organized
in each county a force of citizens, of mi
litia, to suppress crime, proeerve order,
and enforoe the oivil authority of the
Slate and of the United States, which
would enable the Federal Government to
reduce the army and withdraw to a great
extent the foroes from tho State, thereby
reducing the enormous expenses of the
Government. If there was any danger
from an organization of the citizens for
the purpose indicated, the military are
there to deteot and suppress on the first
appearance any move insurrectionary in
its character.
“One great object is to induce tho
people to come forward in the dsfenso of
the State and Federal Governments
“Gen. Washington declared that the
people or the militia, was tbe army of the
Constitution, or the army of the United
States,
“ As soon as itis praotioable, the orig
inal of the great design of tho Govern
ment will be resumed under the princi
ples of the great charter of freedom,hand
ed down to the people by the founder of
the republic.
The people must be trusted with their
government, and if trusted, my opinion
is, tfcat they wili act in good faith and re
store their former constitutional relations
with ail the States comprising the Union.
“The main objeot of General Carl
Schurz’s mission to the South, was to aid,
as far as practicable iu carrying out the
policy adopted by the Government for re
storing the States to their former rela
tions with the Federal Government; it is
hoped such aid has been given. The
proclamation, authorizing restoration of
State Government, requires the military
to aid the provisional Governor in the
performance of his duties, as prescribed
in tbe proclamation, and in no manner to
interfere or throw impediments in the
way of consummating the objects of his
appointment, at least without advising the
government of the intended interference.

Shocking Murder.
On Saturday last aCapt. D. M. D,baon,
I49<h Indiana Vol. Infantry, was passing
along the street in Somerville, Alabama, a
young negro man came stealthily up be
hind him and with an axe felled him to
the ground and then fled, leaving the axe
sticking in the head of his uususpeoting
victim. The blow was fatal, killing Capt.
Dob3cn instantly. The negro was soon
caught and lodged in confinement, and
strong efforts were made to elicit some
reason for the atrocious sot, but without
avail, except, that Captain Dobson h:td
obliged tbs negro to bring him three
pitchers of water during the day, and
that he would not be a servant for any
and and Yankee.
On Sunday evening tbe soldiers, or otbor
persons, we are not informed who, took
the prisoner from the possession of his
guards and hung him. — Advocate.
Negro Equality.
In a speech delivered by President
Johnson, iu the U. S. Senate, in 1856, he
made ihe following emphatic declaration:
“The man who deliberately and boldly
asserts that Thomas Jefferson, when he
penned the sentiment that all men were
created equal, bad the negro in his mind,
is either an idiot or a knave.

To the Editor of the New York News:
Although a perfect stranger to you, I
take, iu my unfortunate and helpless con
dition, tbe liberty to address you this
letter, knowing that, as a friend to the
downtrodden South you oannof but have
some sympathy foi»a man, who, as he be
lieves, is innooently about to be sacrificed
—a sympathy which, I hope, will prompt
you io interest yourself in his behalf.
I am a native of Switzerland, and
having been for years before the war a
resident of Louisiana, oouid not do other
wise than take up arms to defend the State
and oonntry of my adoption when it was
invaded. I joined the Confederate army
in 1861, and served faithfully the cause I
considered to be a rightful one. Iu 1862
the United States troops destroyed my
home, and my wife and three children had
to seek shelter among friends. 1 lost all
I possessed but a few negroes, who still
remained faithful. In 1864 I was ordered
to report to the officer of tie military
prison at Andersonvillo, Georgia. 13y
this offioer I was put in command of the
prison, and remained in that position from
Ap-il 1864 until 1865. When the South
ceased tbe struggle I was still in Ander
Bonville with my family, believing myself
fully protected ny the terms of the agree
ment between Generals Sherman and
Johnston, and never dreaming that I, a
poor Captain and subaltern officer, would
be made to answer with my lifo for what
is now alleged to have be u done at An
dersonville. I was, in violation of a safe
conduct which was given ms by a siaff
offioer ot General Wilson, arrested id
Macon, Georgia: was kept there two
weeks, and then sent on to Washington,
and am now, by order of the President of
the United States, brought before a court
to be triod under the most, atrocious
charges. I bave no frionds here. lam
helpless, and, unless I can get help, will
have to lose the last things which I pos-
Bess in this world —my good name and my
life. My conscience is clear. I have
nover dealt cruelly with a prisoner under
my charge. If they suffered for want of
shelter, food, olotbing and necessaries, I
could not help it—having no control over
these things—things which the Confeder
ate Government could give only in very
limited quantity, even to our own men, as
everybody knows who will be just and
impartial. My legal advisers (Messrs.
Scbade and Baker,) seeing my helpless
ness, bavo undertaken to oonduet my de
fense. They both are doing it from gen
erosity and compassion, knowing full well
that I have not the means to remunerate
them for their ironble. But I cannot ex
pect them to furnish the means which it
absolutely requires in the conducting of a
ckuse of such importance. Copies of
depositions have to be made, messengers
have to be sent here and there to get up
testimony ; and how can this be done
without money? I have none to give;
and, no doubt, my case will be lost—my
life sacrificed —for the want of money to
defray the expenses of such a trial. But
my counsel believe from the evidence
already in their possession, that if the
necessary means can ba obtained, my ac
quittal must be tbe result. In this condi
tion I take the liberty to appeal to you to
assist me; and let mo not be the victim
of injustice. Your iufiuenco is such that
it will not require very great efforts to
collect the necessary means for a vigorous
carrying on of the defense. I am, myself,
without clothes, without any means to al
leviate tho hardships of a close confine
ment. My health is bad, aud the prison
fare is not oaloulated to benefit a sick, or
at least a suffering, mdn. Still
things I have borne murmuring ;
and hope, with the help of God, to bear
yet for a while longer.
Hoping that this petition will receive a
favorable reception on your part, and as
suring you again that nothing but the
direst necessity could induce me to ad
dress you,
I remain Sir, with greatest respect,
Your obedient servant,

Now hear a word from Mr. William
Burgess, a first rate authority : “Iu all
these carpets (some splendid oriental
specimens) it will be seen that the border
plays a most important part, and proba
bly the last thing that would enter the
head’of an oriental would be to out out a
carpet to the shape of the room, and then
nail it down, so that it should be impos
sible to clean the lkoor without the trouble
of unnaiiing it again.” Two points, ob
serve, aro stated io this brief extract.
First, that the best designs for carpets
are nut to be out into and out to pieces,
but, like good designs, of any kind, and
every line and bne of the whole, and
most be used as they are made. Seoond,
that a carpet should be a convenient thing
to take away and olean, and allow the
floor to be cleaned. A good friend and a
most artistio young architect has given
his opinion in our hearing, that every
oarpet should admit of being roiled up
once a week and carried away, to be sha
ken or swept—not beaten with etioks—a
hebdominai cleaning need not be so radi
ioal as that. He would abolish brooms
altogether, as distributors ot dust. The
bare floors should be swept, as bare offioe
floors are, with along-handled soft brush.
Moreover, as Mr. Burgess reminds us, tbe
beautiful oarpsts of the east were not
meant to be trodden on with muddy
boots, but are of silk and velvet. Well,
when carpets are rightly used, we shall
see soma arrangement adopted such as
this : A room need not be limited to one
carpet, there may be a splendid Eastern
floor-oloth, but it will not be laid down
when there is danger of injury ; another
and a less delicate and solemn fabric may
be kept for ordinary occasions. —New
