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. (Signed) Andrew Johnson, President of the United States 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. Postal Allairs South. In the Southern States there has long been large annual deficiencies.

COLUMBUS, GA.* TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER I*2, 1865. I.ettcr (rain Unptatu H. IVIt s, Old Capitol Prison, l Washington City, D. C., Aug. 27, ’65. j 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, H. WIRZ, Late Capt. and A. A. G , C 8 A. Eminent Mechanics. The common class of day laborers has given us Brindley the engineer, Oook the navigator, aud Burns tho poet. Masons and bricklayers can boast of Ben Johnson who worked at the building of Linoolu’s Inn with a trowel in his hand and a book in his pocket; Edwards aod Tollord the engineer, Hugh Miller the geologist, and Allan Cunningham the sculptor, whilst among dietinguished carpenters we find the names of Inigo Jones the architect, Harrison tbe chronometer maker, John Hunter the physiognomist, Romney and Opie the painters, Professor Lse the ori entalists, and John Gibson tbe sculptor. From the weaver class have sprung Simpson tbe mathematician, Bacon the soulptor, tbe two Milnes, Adam Walker, John Foster, Wilson the ornithologist, Dr. Livingstone the missionary traveler, and Tannahill the poet. Shoemakers have given us Sturgeon the electrician, Samuel Drew the essayist, Gifford the editor of tbe Quarterly Review, Bloom field the post, and William Carey tbe missionary; whilst Morrison, another laborious missionary, was a maker of shoe lasts. Cardinal Wolsey, DeFoe,"Akenside and Kirko White were the sons of butchers ; Banyan was a tinker, and Joseph Lancas ter a basket maker. Among the great names identified with the invention of the steam engine are those of Newcomon, Watt and Stephenson—the first a black smith, the secorid a maker of mathemati cal instruments, and the third an engine fireman. Dr. Hutton the geologist, and Berwick the father of wood engraving, were coal miners. Dodsley was a foot man, and Holeroft a groom. Baffin the navigator was a eoramon seaman, and Sir Cloudesley Shovel a cabinbuy. Herscbel played the oboe in a military band. Chantroy was a journeyman carver, Etty a journeyman printer, and Sir Thomas Lawrence tbe son of a tavern keeper. Michael Faraday, the son of a poor blacksmith, was in early lifo apprenticed to a bookbinder, and worked at that trade until be reached his 21gt year ; he now occupies ihe very first rank as a philoso pher, excelling even his master, Sir Humphrey Davy, in the art of lucidly expounding the most difficult and abstruse points in natural science.— Smile’s Self Eelp.

The staple, tobaoeo, is pouring in briskly by the different linos of railroad, the James river and the Kanawha canal, whioh last public work runs through the finest to bacco growing region in Virginia.

Between that time and yes terday morning, the “breaks” foot up six hundred hogheads, the greater portion of whioh was made during the latter portion of July and thus far in the ourrent month. Until the middle of July transportation oouid not be obtained, owing to the dis rupted condition of the public lines of communication. Hitherto lam told that two “ breaks ” a week have sufficed, but the largely increasing quantity of tobacco coming in has made three eaoh week necessary, and hereafter they wili be made eaoh Monday, Wednesday and Fri day.

Abaut CsrpHl 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 Path.
