Belovr, says the Columbns Enquirer of the Ofhj,, xre copy Chief Justice Chase's decision in the Mississippi case as first presented. The Georgia complaint avoids the particular objec tion upon which the refusal to receive the Mis sissippi bill was based, and for that reason it was allowed to be filed. But the reader will probably agree with us, after reading) the de cision of the court, that the arguments used will go to the extent of ttarring any relief from the eonrt. At least the distinction of enjoin ing the President and restraining the agents selected by him to do the work of _ too fine drawn for us to see it. The court pro bably intended to convey a hint that it would not interfere in any manner, ami we think it made broad enough to be easily understood. The following is the decision in full: A motion wits made some days since on be half of the State of Mississippi for leave to file a bill in the name of the State praying this Court to perpetually enjoin and rest lain Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, and E.

The single point which requires consideration is this: Can the President lx- restrained from carrying into effect an act of Congress alleged * to lie unconstitutional ? . It is assumed by the counsel for the State of Mississippi that the President, in the execution j of the reconstruction acts, is required to per- i term a mere ministerial duty. In this assump tion there is, we think, a confounding of the i terms * ministerial ’ and 1 executive,’ which are ! by no means equivalent in import. A ministerial duty, the performance of which may in proper eases b.e required of the head of "a department by judicial process, is one in respect to which nothing is left to discretion.— a military commander? If so, do you approve of the measure ? Do you rejoice over tlie en franchisement of the negro und disfranchise ment of thousands of intelligent white men ? Do you prefer the rule of the military to the rule of civil authorities? Arc the orders of Gen. Pope more in consonance with your feel ings titan the free expression of the people’s will through their representatives? Do you prefer a military ton jury trial ? Had you rather Ins governed liy the appointee of the military than hy the Governor elected liy the people ?— We guess we know your answer to these ques tions. If you prefer constitutional to uncon stitutional rule why denouuce the course of Gov. Jenkins ? He has been striving to give you the very government you choose, mid still he has done wrong? Ah, no, not wrong, for he lins tlie courage to stand by the right, while you would cravcnly submit and seek to muke your oppressors believe that you love them in proportion to their stripes. What a spectacle! All, say a few, we do uot like the state of affairs, and we must keep still and induce the ruling party in the Federal Government to think that we are pleased with their legisla tion. The plain English of which is, we must act the lie. Excuse ns, if you please. Willcoxon Manufacturing Company. On last Tuesday, in company with Col. J. B.

Maj. Gen. John Pope, Com’dg. Sir—On yesterday evening a copy of a com munication from you. addressed to me at Mil ledgeville, on the 17th lust., was handed to me in this hotel. With that communication was transmitted a copy of your General Order No. 1 issued from Montgomery, Ala., and my atten tion being called to paragraph 3 of that order. You inquire whether, when I issued my ad dress to the people of Georgia, dated Washing ton, D. C.., April 10th, 1867, I had seen or had knowledge of your order above mentioned?

As the foregoing Rules are a part of the to Carrollton, and is owned by Col. J. B. M ill- coxon and Capt. II. J. Sargent. On our arrival wo found the machinery in motion and all hands at their pi-sts. After a few moments of rest we were introduced to (lie gentlemanly Superinten the Bowenville Factory, and who has an expe rience of 20 years as an overseer and superin tendent, and has been connected with the manufacturing interests of the State for tlie last 35 years. This gentleman kindly “ show ed us around," and explained fully the modus operandi of spinning thread, and gave polite, agreeable and instructive answers to onr many questions. The foreman or overseer, is Mr. F. S. Holley, son of the Superintendent. The Willcoxon Manufacturing Company have now employed, not including Superintendent and Overseer, thirty operatives, twenty-five of whom are females und five males. untract they must be ■ >us employed for the C 11. As there is a chance of disturbances to arise among so many different jx-rsons, this ' ‘ •” ----- *-; j Rule is the plan of settlement: the party en- nt, Mr. II. I. Holley, formerly of j Inust make their complaint to the Super intendent at his office, where the case will be fairly investigated, and tlie parties found in fault will bo punished according t milted, either by 1 finally discharged of Congress’ll ad directed the Postmaster General to credit Stockton and Stokes with such sums f money as the Solicitor of the Treasury should find due"to them, and that officer refused to credit them with certain sums so found due.— It was held that the crediting of this money was a mere ministerial duty, the performance of which might be judicially enforced. In each of these cases nothing was left to discretion. There was no room for the exercise of judgment. The law required the perfor mance of a single specific act; and that per formance, it was held, might be required by mandamus. Very different is the duty of the President in tlie exercise of the power to see that the laws are faithfully executed, and among those laws tlie acts named in the bill. By the first of these acts he is required to assign Generals to command in the several military districts, and to detail sufficient military force to enable such officers to discharge their dmies under the law By the supplementary act other duties are im posed on the several commanding Generals, and their duties must necessarily be performed under the supervision of the President as Com mander-in-Chief. The duty thus imposed on the President is in no just sense ministerial.— It is purely executive aud political. An attempt on the part of the judicial de partmeut ot the Government to enjoin the performance of such duties by the President might be justly characterized, in tlie langnng of Chief Justice Marshall, as “an absurd and excessive extravagance.” It is true that iu tlie instance before us tlie interpretation of the Court is not sought to enforce action by the Executive under consti tutionai legislation, but to restrain such action under legislation alleged to be unconstitutional But we are unable to perceive that this circum i, uly'reprimanded or I stance takes the case out of the general princi ple which forbids judicial interference with the unseated to by all per- unpany. imes com ho much for the past, General, and I will only add, that in future I shall do and say what I may believe is required of me by. the duty to which my oath of office binds me, and this I trust, will not involve either eontiict orcontro- .-.rsy between us ill the execution of our res pective trusts, as I think it need not; every thing of this character I certainly desire to avoid.

It gives me pleasure to say that your expla nation is satisfactory, so far as the past is con cerned, and I cordially concur with you in the hope that our relations in the future may he harmonious and agreeable. I would content myself with this answer to your letter but for the following remark which it contains. You say, “I supposed I was using such freedom in the public expression of opin ion relative to public matters as seems still to be accordei not ima|_ _ H cident of the speaker or writer, holding of fice.” This expression seems to indicate that you think that in some manner, either personally or officially, you have been wronged by that paragraph of niv order which has occasioned this correspondence, and that I am seeking to abridge the liberty of speech, in this State, in an unnecessary and oppressive manner. I trust that I may be able to disabuse your mind of this idea. It Ls scarcely necessary to tell you that the late acts of Congress, which I am sent here to execute, recognize the existing State government of Ueorgia as merely provis ional, and that the object of recognizing it at all was only that the ordinary course of busi ness in tlie civil tribunals, and the administra tion of the laws of the State by the customary agencies might not be interrupted further than was necessary for the strict execution of the laws of the Uuited States. It is not doubted that Congress might have legislated the present State government of Georgia out ef existence as easily as they have recognized it as provis ional. and it is" as little to be doubted that Congress would have done so, could it have been foreseen that the entire machinery of the In conclusion. Governor, it seems nnnecessa- y for me to say in general reply to the latter or your letter, that the paragraph of ;r to w hich you object was very care- considcrcd, that it means precisely what it says, and to the full extent of my power it will "be strictly enforced. My grcat*re"spect for your personal character has made it painful to me to write you this let ter. but as a fair and full understanding be tween us is absolutely essential to anytthing like harmonious relations. I have thought it necessary, even at the risk of offence, to ac quaint you fully with my understanding of my duty, and of the status of the civil officers of the Provisional State Governments under the late Acts of Congress. X again assure you that it shall be my study, as it will be my pleasure, to preserve unim paired friendly and harmonious relations with you, and I trust that our views on the subject of this correspondence may be made to har monize sufficiently to secure this result. 1 am; very respectfully, vour ob't serv’t, (Signed) ' JOHN POPE, Maj.
