Gen. Grant’* Order. We publish below an order trom Gen. Grant i eal I>g upon Department Commanders to send to headquarters “ such copies of newspapers as con tain sentiments of disloyalty and hostility to the Government, in any of its branches,” etc. - We would like to. know wW- ‘ lumern press, so far as we have been able to see, have published nothing disloyal or hostile to the Government, since the general accepta'ion of the new order of things. True, some editors speak in ■trong terms against, the radicalism of the North— Sumner, Stevens & Cos., are frequently alluded to M disturbers of the public peace—but futher than this, we have discovered no disloyalty in the col- j amn« of Southern newspapers. The fact is, Southern j nirnnls should have no thing to fear from this ord-r. The dislovalty is not with them, but to fjund in the columns of the Northern radical press. In these Gen. Grant will find hostility to the Government expressed daily They sre laboring with might and main to ruin the Government. While our noble President is bat tling for the restoration and perpetuation of the nation, they curse him with the bitterness of de mons, Were it not for these journals, and the supporters of their ruinous creed, there would now be peace and harmony throughout our land. Let the order fce carried out, say we. Stop the abuse of the President—the opposition to the Con stitution—the disruptors of the Government every where. If the press is to be under the direction of military power, let that power be exercised North ss well as South. We repeat, we have no disloyalty among us of the South. We have no agitators in our ranks.— We abide by the Constitution—yield to the laws of the land, and heartily endorse the action of our Chief Magistrate.. We are with the conservative* of the North, heart and soul—ready to battle with them against the disloyalty and hostility of the radicals to Government, either at the ballot-box or— :n any other way. “A ou will p’ease stgw’; ' to these headquarters as •oon as practicable, and from time to time hereaf ter, such copies of newspapers published in your department as contain sentiments of dislo.val.i-y and hostility to the Government in any of its branches, and state whether such paper is habitual in its ut terance of such sentiments. The per-is'ent ptfbli cation of articles calculated to keep up a bad state of feeling between the people of the different sec tiwns of the country, cannot be tolerated, and this information is called for with a view to their sup pression, which will fie done from these headquar ters oolv. By command of Lt. Ocn. Grant, T. S. BOWERS. A. A G. The Pmideul vs. the ltadicals. A special telegram to the New York News, from Washington, says that the Kadicals of both houses appear to be pertectly stupified by the bold and decided stand which the President has taken. They are holding private caucuses to determine what to do about it. The sahie telegram also contains a sensational item to the effect that the President had stated that the time had come when he, as President of the whole country, must see to it that the eleven Southern States are r.o longer deprived of that representation in Congress which is secured to them by the Constitution. It is reported, indeed, that the President will summon the Southern Sen ators and Representatives to Washington ; satisfy i himself of their loyalty and actual legal election, and then require their immediate admission to their their seats. * Whether these items are sensational or other* wise, all the late acts of the President go to show that the arrogance and obstinaay of the Radicals is becoming intolerable, and that he will support the Constitution in all its provisions, despite their s'ubborn efforts to destroy it, Os The New York exchange gave Gen. Grstt a Christmas present of fifty tLousaud 4u!’.»ra The President’* Veto. If any thing has been lacking heretofore, to con vince the people of this country of the determina tion of the present Chief Magistrate, to perform the great task which lies before him—that of re- I constructing the political sisteihood of the Stales —in a disposition of friendship to all secions, the i late message vetoing the action of Congress in re* gard to the Fieeduiau’eßureau Bill,contains aenti ments sufficiently statesmanlike and patriotic to fill the bill of Ihe molt fastidious political critic, j Piesideu' Johnson stands as a wall of protection between the South and that fanatical horde who would biiug this section to a worse condition than I their own wickedly prejudiced hearts deserve. — ] May he be guided by wisdom, and upheld by the | great Ruler of Nations. | We copy some paragrahs of the message as ; prominently expressive of the spirit of patriotism which characterizes the entire document : I cannot reconaila a system of Military juris- , diction’of this kind with the words of the Cunsti»| cion, which declare that.“no person shall be held j to answer for a capital pr otherwise infamous crime | unless on a presentment or indic'ineut of a grand ; jury, except iu caves arising in the land or naya. j lorce, or ill the militia, when in actual service, in j time of war and public danger and that “in ail criminal prosecutions the accused shuil erj -y the right to a speedy and public trial bv an impartial jury of the State or district wherein the crime skail'have been tommitled." The safeguards which the wisdom and expe rionceof sg s taught our fathers to establish us securities for the protection oi the innocent, the punishment of the guiltv, and the equal adminis ; i ration of j rialiee, SfC t.O he set aside, and for' the [ sale of more-■vigswouS. interposition in behalf of jftftfice we are to take the lisa of the many acts.of injustice that would of necessity' follow from an almost countless number of agents enablisbed iu everv parish or county ill nearly a third of the Slates of the Union, over whose decision there is to tie no supervision or control by the Federal Courts. The power that wduld thus be placed in the bands of the Piesident, is such as in lime* of pedee and tecuritv, ought never to tic entrusted to any one man. If it be asked whether ibe creation of such a tribunal within a State is warranted as a measure of war, thcques'ion immediately presents itself, whether we are still engaged in war. Let us not unnrcessnrily disturb the course and credit and industry of the country, by declaring to the American people, and the world, tiiat the United States are still in a condition of civil war. At present there is no part of our country in which the authority of the United States is dis puted. Offenses that may be committed by indi viduals should not work a foifetture of right ol the same communities. The country has entered, or is returning to, a state of peace aDd industry, and the war, in fac', is at an end. The measure, therefore, seems to be as inconsistent w ith the ac* j tual condition of iho country os it is at variance i with the Uonstitu-ion of the United States. I*, 1 passing from general consideration, we examine J the bill in detail, it is open to weighty exceptions. In time of war it was eminently proper that we should provide for those who were passing sudden ly from a condition of bondage to a state of bee dom, but this bill proposes to make the I reed man’s Bureau, established by an »<'t ol 18H5, as one of the many great and extraordinary military measures to suppress a formidable rebellion, a pormanent brat c J of the public admiuistiation, with its powers greatly enlarged. The Congress of the United State* has never heretofore thought itself competent to establish any laws beyond the limits of the Disnict of Cos lumbia, except for the. benefit of our disab ed sol diers and sailors. It has never founded schools for any class of our own people, not even for the orphans of those who have fallen iu defense of the Union, but has left the care of their education to the much more competent control of the Sta'es, of commuriiies, of private associations, an 1 of in* dividuals. It has never deeiffed itself authorized to expend public money for the rent or purchase of houses for the thousands, not to say millions of the white race who aie honestly toiling day by day for their subsistence. A system for the support of indigent persons in the United States was never contemplated by the authors of the. Constitution, nor- nart ass.-sasd meat, jt should be founded for one class or color of our citizens more than for another. Pend tig the war many Tefugee- and freedtnen received support fiom the Government, but it was nevpr intended thev should henceforth be fed, clothed, educated, and sheltered bv the United States. . The approbation asked by the Fneedmen’s Bu reau, as was established- for the vear 1866, a mounts to $11,475 000. It may safely be estima ted thi t the cost to he incurred, uuder the pendine bill will require double the amount more than the entire sum expended in anv one year under the administration of the second Adams. There are still further objections to the bill on the grounds seriouslv ass -ctirg the class of persons to whom it is designed to bring relief. It will tend to keep the minds of the freedmen in a sta'e of uncertain exp ctation and restlessness, while to those among whom he liTea it will be a source of constant and vague apprehension. Speaking of the establishment of the Bureau as provided for in the bill, the President says : Such an Asylum would inevitable tend to such a concentration of power in the Executive which would enable him, if so disposed, to coutrol the action of a numerous class, and use them for the attainment of hia own pol t'e 1 ends. I cannot but add another grave ohjec'lon to the bil'. The Constitn ion imperatively declares, in connection with taxation, that each S ate shall have at least one R-presentative, and fixes the rule for the number to which in future times,.each State shall be entitled. It also p-ovidea that the Senate of the United States shall he composed of two Senators from each State, and adds with peculiar force, that no State without its consent shall be deprived of its suffrage. In the Senate the original act was tic crssarilt pa-sed io the absence of tho States, ctyef lv tn ho affected, because their people were then contumaciously engaged in the rebellion. Now the case is charged, and some at least of the States, are attending Congress by loyal Represen tatives, soliciting the allowance of the constitution al right of representation. At the time, however, of the consideration and passage ol the bill, there was no Senator or Rep resentative in Congress from the eleven Slates, which are to be ntiinly affected by its provisions The President is chosen by tho people of all the States. Eleven Sta'es are not at this time tepre sented in either branch of Congress. It would eeo-w to be his duty, on all proper occasions, to present their just claims on Congress. The Position in Washington. — It isevi •lent from Washington advices, that the rup ture between the Administration and the Radicals is now openly declared by “that man at the other end of the avenue,” as Mr. Stevens contemptuously styles Mr Johnson. The President bas told a Democratic Sen ator that he wiil ‘‘show the e men in a few days,” whether they can brat bin) or not. Steven's conduct in driving through the . amendment matter, over tho President’s ■ woll-knoan wishes, has aroused some of the j “old Jack ion” in the latter ; and having in j vain appea ca to their feelings, letter writers now say ho will touch these Radicals “on the raw” by a summary decapitation of some of the head Radical pets.— Chronicle and Sentinel. The Louisiana Sugar Crop. — The su gar crop us Louisiana for the season of 1865 6 is stated at 11,967 hogshead? against hogsheads in 1861-2. This & better than we feared. Tho crop of 1864-5 was 6,668 hogsheads. „.£3T A Washington dispatch to the Philadelphia Inquirer says it is probable that Gen.

For the Dawson Journal. j Tiic Importation and ■uimigrn tlon of Foreign Field-Laborer*. Micssits. Editors:— The Pubic have of J Into been greatly encouraged to look to i Europe in part, tor an abundant and inex-1 baustiblo supply of laborer*, with'the view| ol ultimately supplanting tbo regro, or of j stimulating him to greater exertion by this threatened competition. 'This scheme bus had its oiigin in the minds of the same persons thut, some years since, fancied that ‘•Cotton was King," and lias been encour aged and taken advantage of by needy foreign adventurers, who desire ft .trip to Eur j»e at the expense of a few “guilabV’ planters. I predict that wo shall hear nothing more of this subject after the next two years, and shall now proceed to give my reason for my want of conbdenoe iu the success of the movement' • . The Soifthern planters wants laborers to take the place of the negro, to 1#? in bis cabins, to he fed and clothed and. paid in a manner similar to bis predecessor. Jbe agent sent out to Europe may succeed by artful representation to arouse in the art less Irish and G rtnun peasant, a desire to realize the golden promisee held out to him; numbers w.ll come over for a while, but neither employer nor employee, will long be sa isfied with the contract However patient and p'oddhig tliode. nlaii fmty be in bis Fatherland, ye>'iK> sooner 'Bites be land onjtHtefle shores than he commences ari iin sottlek, roving life; for he cannot find what lie had pictured .in'bis glowing imagination. Few ol those imported laborers will long remain content and with a life, such as it is, on a Southern plantation. Futhermore, even if such people would fco content to remain, yet die number of such as would voluntarily come over to beconie hired ser vants here, will be much smaller than is generally supposed. That class of Ger man agricu turul laborers at. all suited for this purpose, are so po r and ignorant that they seldom are capable or desirous of changing their condition by emigration, and it is o these that planters’ Agents must address themselves. Now imagine how long it wi Ibe before, by such s‘ovv and expensive means, an impression can be made upon 8 mthern labor. By far the largest proportion of German agricultural immigrants are the small farmers, - men of more or le s means, who generally go to the Western States, where thosojl and cli mate are congenial and resembles most what they enjoyed in the land they have left. A lew of those might be invited to the South, but only as renters buyers of lan 1. But after a’l, the question remains, will they become permanent sctrlefs? We have many Germans throughout the South; but where, and wha' are they ? They are to be found in the cities and towns as tra ders, merchants, or mechanics; but lew or none on plantations. . The eau-ca which heretofore kept the European-husbandman from migrating to the South, remain un changed ; it was not because he was an abolitionist, for few of that cla-s care a fig for po itic.nl abstraction or tb ories ; his main objection to a file in the South is to be found in clima e. soil, and a Shrinking from being brought on a level with the Negro, or to have him for a competitor in Inter. Emancipation has not removed this obstacle; and it is not probable ihift it will “ v Al:lfty and mysterious aro the,motive agents that roll on the waVes .of National migration, such as for years lias set. from the shores of Eurofe to those of America ; its sweep is ever onward and resistless;, no b red agents or newspaper articles can dive t it from itft constant cours *, unaided by revolutions dlfie ent from any that have occurred or are likely to occur in this count! y. The foregoing remarks were prompted by a desire to lenelit my Southern fellow citizens, by perhaps putting them on their guard against the schemes of visionaries and swindlers. A few months ago, I ob served that a notorious german immigra tion speculator was figuring at Milledge ville, and no doubt succeeded in eonvinc ing his auditors that he could bring over several German principalities before the end of the year. I know this man and his antecedents while in the immigrant busi ness ; and he is only one of a class of Vampires who live on the Llood of their confiding and sanguine countrymeni:n,ticed into plans and schemes unsuited tb' their tastes and hat its of life. I would warn Southern planters against any sehgane oth< r than renting their lands to European settles un ler proper restriction and some degree of supervision. I tell tlieth* the German farm laborer, although good enough when in his proper plaou, wjjj, be wholly unprofitable and unreliable (dr per manent objects. •• I have confined my remarks mainly to the Germans, they being the principal oR-, jects of these vi ionary projects; b.tit up} necessarily compelled toom.t many, pther i-bjections to any direct importation of la borers. If such projects promi-ed a chance of success, I should be one of the to welcome these people ws a valuable acces sion to our population, but my observation and experience on both sides of the At lantic teach me a different lesson, and I only hope that ihose who now are making the experiment, may not rue it be-fbYe the first crop is gathered The Southern pi inter must ultimately do what is do..e in Europe, almost everywh re, viz: rent bis lmd to one, who will sub-re.,t to another, and so on. This course wiil bring back the golden era to the now humbled, bat once proud, possessor of the toem ng Jands of our sunny and beloved South; when o hers will onoe more toil and sweat for him according to the never-changing law of our existence, that the poor must toil for the rich. I state the law as it stands, with out presuming to cavil at its justice. J Fearing further to encro:eh upon your space and the patience of your readers, I will herewith brims rny remarks to a dose.

Washington, 26. —The Senate discuss ed the joint resolution that no Senator or Representative from any seceded State shall be admitted, until Congress decides that the State is en itlecl to representation. Mr. Mct'lung offered a resolution that it be referred to the Committee on Recon struction, with instructions to inquire and ascertain, whether con umucy be clearly manifested in the seceded Slates; and, il so, to inquire into the expediency of levy ing a contribution on the disloyal inhabi tairts of such States, to defray the extraor dinary’expenses which would otherwi e be thrown on the National Government, for keeping up a standing army and p otect ing loyal citizens in their natural and per sonal rights, under the Constitution. • The resolution was-referred without in instructions. The House discus ed a joint resolution proposing to amend the Constitution so as to give Congress power to make laws to secure the citizens of each State in all the privileges and immunities of ci izens of the several States, equal protection ia the rights of life, libeity and property.

Washington, Feb 27.—The Senate con sidered the concurrent resolution of the House in relation to the admission of Soutu ern States.

No Congressional polioy having been adopted when be entered into office, be was forced to adopt some policy of his own; but one central idea controlled him in the whole matter, and that was a proper system of paci fication, and should be one to stimula’e, everywhere, the loyalty of the people of the South, and make it the spring of loyal con duct arid proper legislat on, rather than im pose upon them losses and conditions by di rect external force.
