But there is a reconstruction in which
we may aH engage and engage to advan
tage ; aud that is the rebuilding of the
temple of fortune.
It affords me much pleasure to say, that
in the.vicinity of Eufaula, Ala., this work
is rapidly going on. It does not consist in
employ mentof mercantile skill; in erecting
magnificent storehouses without “count
ing the cost”; in making useless and hurt
ful speeches; in quarreling over what we
cannot help; in descanting on those “sad
est of all words —we might have been
but it consists in honestly cultivating the
soil; in looking to the sun and rains of
heaven, instead of the smiles, and sympa
thetic tears of men ; In giving employ
ment, instruction, and kind treatment to
the newly emancipated people whom God
has surrounded us with, and committed to
our care.
These thoughts are suggested by the ad
mirable management and gratifying re
sults to be seen on, the plantation of Rev.
W. N. Reeves; a large, most humane aud
successful planter of Barbour county, Ala.
Mr. Reeves has about one hundred and
fifty freedmen on his place, about seventy
of whom are laborers. He has for them,
either now, or in contemplation, a good
school, and a good church and Sabbath
school, and being an able and devoted
Minister, often preaches to them himself.
He has one thousand acres in cultiva
tion, six hundred in cotton and four hun
dred in corn, and the crops are fine and
promise an abundant yield.
I cannot better tell you what the feel
ings of this gentleman are, than to insert
an extract from a private letter, of course
without an explanation or permission on
his part, that any of the words should ev
er be seen in print:
“If the colored people do not rise in the
scale of humanity, I do not want the sin
to lie at my door. I henestly believe that
no more inviting, or important, or prom
ising field of labor was ever opened to the
dirtstWi philanthropist, than the freed
men now present to Southern Christians,
I say Southern Christians, for they are
the ones whom God, and nature, aud
providence call to this work, and they are
urged by the most pressing considerations
to enter upon it in earnest and at once. —
Now is the time. ‘We must take the cur
rent when it serves, or loose our ventu res.’ ”
Gen. Cullen A. Battle, a gallant Southern
soldier, has a large plantation near the one
and was present a few days ago
at a barbecue given by Mr. Reeves to his
freedmen, and made them a most eloquent
and acceptable speech. Nowhere, I am
confident, are the freedmen doing better,
and the crops lookiug finer, thau in this
section of Alabama. May the examples
mentioned here incite others to a like
course of conduct, and may a kind Provi
dence so smile upon our agricultural in
terests, that light shall come focth out of
the present chaos—the light of pleuty and
happiness in spite of the political darkuess
that now broods over the laud.
Not many items of news are to be gath
ered in our city. The pastors of the Bap-
ttst and Methodist churches ha vs been
granted a summer vacation, and are now
in the upper country. Many other citi
zens have left for the springs, and oooler
retreats. Active business left for parts un
known some times since, aud like other
places in our suuuy laud, Eufaula pre
sents a dearth religiously,socially and com
mercially. Yours* Ac.,

Homicide.— For several nights in
cession the store of Rufus Reynolds, on
Bay street, was entered, and small sums of
money as well as articles of merchandise
stolen. On 'Wednesday night Mr. Rey
nolds remanined in the store for purpose
of discovering the depredator. About
daylight the door was quietly unlocked
from the outside, aud a person entered.
Mr. Reynolds, who oould just discern
the outline of a human from, raised a
loaded shortgun and fired over the coun
ter, intending to strike the Intruder in the
legs aud cripple him, but the charge took
ettect in the abdomen, indicting a mortal
wound. The thief proved to be a colored
boy named George, about eighteen years
of age. lie lived an hour and » half after
receiving the wound, kikl confessed to be
the party who had robbed the store on
former occasions.
Justice W. A. McLean soon appeared
upon the sceue and arrested Mr. Rey
nolds. He then, iu the absence of a Coro
ner, empaneled a jury of inquest, consist
ing of half white and half colored citisens,
who, after carefully investigating the
circumstances, returned a verdict of justi
fiable homicide, whereupon Mr. Rey
nolds was discharged form custody.

Fome of the Washington correspondents
have been keeping up a very unseemly
and Impertinent pMlavar as to whether the
petition for pardon of Mrs. Surratt, whfaii
was signed by certain members of the Mil
itary Commission which tried her, was
ever presented to President Johnson. The
President, it sceum, has said it was never
presented to him, though one of the coun
sel in the present Surratt trial says It was.
Certain small quibbles have been brought
againat the President in the matter, and
certain potty “proofa” which we are asham
ed even to mention in such u oonneotiou.
Thereto no intelligent man in the country,
uo matter of what |*olitics, who doubts the
allegation that live aforesaid petition was
never prem-uted to President Johnson— if
the President has so staled Aud we trust
(he contemptible quibbles about the affair
will atop forthwith.
