DAWSON JOURNAL.
DAWSON, OA FED. 15 1860.
Consist.nct —ln hls message to
the Legislature in October, 1865, Gov
ernor lirewnlow t ok decided grouud
sgainit conferring the right of suffrage
i:pm the negroes, for the rctsm that it
would m ike Tennessee a sirt of assyl
utu for the negroes of all the cotton
BtaUN, and declared that they were.“ig
norant, docile, easily led by designing
men, and not safely trusted with politi
cal power.”
A corn spondeut of the Independent
newspaper denounoes Mr. Seward as
"an apostate who s'ands to day with the
vilest politicians the country contains
On this (District suffrage) and other
questions.” Mid spoken gentleman,
these Rtdicals. *The same writer says
1 'those who now have office aie for the i
most part dumb, cringing slaves. |
New England papers say that “me
chanic who a-e out of work, proposes to
write I had Stevens, and see what
amount of money, (to be raised by
subscription among the meJhnniuß of
New England.) will be satisfactory to
him, as an inducement to let peace and
prosperity be restored, North ana
Houth, ns they are anxious to get:
back to tbe'r workshops. It may be j
tun to him—but death to them.” The,
mechanic is behind ihe times. Bing
ham is boss of the House now.
Another frightful mussacre of v,lnte
men by Indians, is reported. It occur
red near '.he head of Smoky Hi'l Riv
er. Sixty-three men belonging to
Wallace's train were in camp, when a
email party of Indians came in, beg
ging. The teamsters refused to give
ihem anything, and the Indians fired
upon them. The fire was returned,
killing eight of t’ e ravages, who be
longed to the Cheyenne tribe. At
night their camp was surrounded by
two hundred Indians, who massacred
fifty-nine out of the sixty three men.—
The man that brought the news to
Kansas settlements had an arrow hole
through his shoulder, and another
wound in Lis hip He cltffirs to be
one of the four’men that escaped.
Tub Supreme Court Allotment of
Circuits —The Judiciary Committee
of tlie Senate have under considera
tion a bill provid'ng that the Chief
Justico of the United States and the
associate Justice of the Supreme Court
ehall bo allotted among the circuits
dovv existing by order of the Couit;
nnd whenever anew allotment shall be
required or found expedient by reason
of alteration of one or more circuits, or
of the new appoi Ament of a Chief-
Justice or associate Justice, or other
wise, it shall be the duty of the court
to make the same; and if anew allot
ment sha'd become necessary at any
time duiing the term, such allotment
shall be made by the Chief Justice,
nnd shall be binding until next term,
and until anew allotmen 1 by the
court. The object of this bill is to re
move the techn'cal objections which
Chief-Justice Chase has to holding n
term of the United States Circuit
Court for trial of J ff Davis.
Condemned by his own Peo
ple.
The unfeeling order of Gen. Griffin,
tbe Federal Commandant at Galveston,
Texa*, forbiding the intering of General
A. S. Johnson remains with public ob
cquiet, is thus condemned by the Al
bany J ournal, a leading republican pa
per.
Albeit Sidney Johnston, c. muiander
of the rebel forces in tho Miss’sfippi
department, fell at the battle of Shiloh.
He was probably the bestßoldier in the
Confederate army, an accomplished
scholar, and a thorough gentleman. So
great was the respect felt for him even
by his enemies that Geueral Grantmade
his death a subject of special notice, and
an armistice was maintained during his
luneral ceremoni s.
Recently the remains of this General
weto exumed aDd taken to Galveston.
Texas, where great preparations were
wade for interring them, with public
obsequeis, yesterdry. General Griffin,
the Federal commandant at that post,
interfered. He ordered that there
should be on the ocoadon no ringing of
hells, no public or private demonstradon
of any organized association, and that
all persons who participated in the pro
cession should appear as members of
the family or friends of tbe deceased
These conditions were nfused, and du
ring the day the remains lay in state,
while the p rincipal places of busine b
throughout the city were closed and
craped in muorning.
It seems to us that Genoral Griffin
made a mistake. It was natural that
those who had been friends and admir
ers of the fallen warrior fh r uld desire to
pay him Borne tribute of respiet. Nor
was it singular if in doing so they should
he governed somewhat by regard for the
cause in behalf of which he died ; lor it
was the same that bad demanded their
efforts and sacrifice during more than
five years. Such feeling was not neces
sarily treasonable. The firing of guus
and the ringing of bells iu honor of a
heroic man, ever? though be perished in
a mistaken cause, need not have
been productive of mischief. Such dis
plays have often been tolerated by vic
tors of the vanquished.— Albany Jour.
In reference to the above the Roches
ter (N. Y.,) Union, says the above re
marks are sensible aud just, and are es-
pccially to bejeommended in the Journal
it liscs above the petty prejudice,
bigotry, and malignancy of its eurroued
ings in uttering them. Such whclesoiao
views in a democrat" j j urnal arc no
particular meri', because they are ia ac
cordance witli the broad and elevated
ground upon which Democratic princi
plcr, charity, and toleration rest, and
are looked for from such a source cs a
matter of course. l!ut when a Radical
print seta them forth the fact that it
docs so is notable.
It is very much to be deplored that
the Journal and its kindred cannot
school themselves to entertain as kind
and Christian regard for rebels afire as
5s here manifested for the rebel’s dead.
Sidney Johnson was a good soldier—
probably the ablest in the old ainiy at
the time tiic rebellion broke mit Tex
ans by resigning his commission in the
United S’atcs service, in 1831, and en
tering that of the Republic—having
been the Adjutant General and the sen
ior Brigadi r General of i‘s army, sub
sequently its sccrataay of War, then, he
fore returning to the regular army, the
I colonel of its first regiment raised for
: our war agatnst Mexico, and lastly, is
champion in the attempt at secession.
The people of the South bad the same
regard for him that they now have for
all their pulic men who led them in sup
port of the cause for which he died
They will always entertain that focling
and their children after them for gener
ation will have it imbued in them. In
dividual treason, which proceeds from
a base motive, can be made odious; but
the collective treast nos compact mill
ions, occupying a vast section of coun
try, with all the elements of empire in
and about them, and who simply seek
to a the theory of self government
for themselves t) be found in the C n
fiderate constitution, leaving otlcr sirn
ilerly situated people to govern them
selves in their own way, can never be
made odious—never. Those involved
in it will make it respectable in spite
of all human power. He spreading
millions of Southern sffspring will nev
er admit that their fathers did aught
that should bring the blush to their
cheek. The names cf the prominent ac
tors iu the rcbeliion will always glori
fied by them, and the cause that is lost
will ever be held in their estimation a s
one worlby of 'he highest exertions and
greatest sacrifices of a free and enlight
ened people. Wc are not accounting
for or justifying fact*, but simply sta
ting them that they may be reorganized,
and that in view of them thoughtful men
may ask themsolves whether it is not
the part of wisdom to be making the
attempt to eradicate from the hearts cf
the Southerner what Las came to be a
p.rt of their very nature, a® the Gen
eral Griffiiqs iu the army and in civil
statinos arc doing. Such attempts serve
to drive in rather than drive out the ob
joc’imab'esentiment, and to perpetuate
a feud that will make us forever two
people. The Souh fought Era theory
of government. lie did nothing more.
They were bouton; we triumphed. They
st.nd "convinc'.d aga’nst their will,”
and all the laws that cm be divised by
the ingenuity of man can exact nothing
more from them than the submission
they now yield. Kindness, conciliation,
and respect for their manhood can alono
change the Southern hearts and direct
its affoctiou towards a union which now
has only the assent of its cold ludg
ment based upon the circumstance of
necessity.
Tlic iTciv Internal Revenue
Tax.
Waiiiington, Feb. 10 —The Ways
and Means Committee wi.l report at
an early day, probably to-morrow, an
Internal Revenue bill. The leading
idea is riddance of the tax on manu
factures," at the earliest possible rno
ment. Present government wants
forbid this immediately, hitice the
partail action. Article! en'ering large
ly into the co.-t of living, such as ea't,
leather, kitchen utensils, scales, engines
and clothing, made from taxed staples,
are exempt Many artie’es now j ay
ing 2 per cent, a® glue, wagons used
for farming, freighting, butter and
cheese, are exempt. A section is add
ed refund the amount paid on raw
material entering into manufactures.—
Many articles are exempt because the
expense of collecting exceeds tho tax.
Boxes, bottles, barrels with contents,
taxed, are exempt. Tho cotton tax ,
remains unchanged. The taxon cane;
sugar is placed at a unifprm rate, one
cent per pound. The’ liquor tax is
unchanged, but the licenso for distii
ery is increased from SIOO to SSOO
Distillations from apples’ and pea hes
are free. Grape brandy 50 cent-; j
th’s is unchanged. Incomes under
SIOOO are exempt; the excess 5 per
cent. Rent tax, insurance and repairs 1
to be deducted fr m incomes, making
an average exemption of $1,500. —
Violation of the distillery law is pun
ishable by fine and imprisonment of
not less than two moths or more than
two years. There is a provision that
articles offered for a less price than
the tax shall be subject to seizure.

from a gentleman iu a | o*i' on 'o knew,
, that a large number of the m-groes who
: arc daily Been to take their denature
: from this city, ha-c been engaged for
j the cotton planiaticms in Southwestern
Georgia. A third, perhaps, that
sec'ioc of the country, while the remain
der are en route for the Mississippi bot
toms. Not less than a thousand per
wci k are thus seen in transitu. Asa
general thing, tiny are able-bodied
men and women, and behave tLemselvrs
very well duri g their brief S"j .urn at
the carsbed. l'arties who have them in
charge, however, state that it ; s custo
mary, and in fact expected, to line by
desertion 26 per cent, cf the original
number before their final destination is
reached' “Eboshin” finds it very pleas
ant to travel from town to town, being
tran. ported and victualed it the con
tsaetor’s cost, and to take “French
leave” at such time and place as may
please hir fancy. The prices obtained
by able-bodied men, we are told, is 810
per month, payable at the # end of the
year. The women are hired for much
less price.
flotation of Crops.
The physiology of plants is such,
says the Rural New Yoiker, that scarce
ly any two of them take from the
ground or the- atmosphere the same kind
of nutriment in equal proportions.—
Hence it follows that in continuous
cropping, of the same product, mu ch of
the prrductive power cf the so 1 and of
ihe fertiliz rs combined with it is last or
remains inert. This loss may be re
trieved by a judicious system of ro a
tion, by which means all the clemcn's of
growth ore brought into successive ac
tion and rendered available for farm pro
ducts.
Perhaps the ordir of the crons is not
of special importance. One might be
g>n a sys'ein with roots; follow with
cereal?, peas, and beans, and then pas
ture or m adovr, oocording to the tastes
or r.ec s i ies cf the farmer. Stmc
lands will do well in pasture for a series
of years. Si of the meadow, but as a
general, the best resuits are attained by
changes every three four years at mast.
If oftener made, the chances of remun
eration rre bclicv.4 to bo improved
while the soil ir relieved from the thou
sand noxious ;Ents which impair it vi
talify without returning anything of
value byway of recompense.

From a private letter to Mr, David
Vankirk, of this city, written by hisson,
Horace D Vankirk, Company C. Twin
ty-seveu United States infantry, now
stationed at Fo r t Philip Kearney, we
are permitted to make some extracts in
rela'nnto the Irtdiin niatsaeie, which
occurred on the 2lstcf Dccemb r. He
says :
“On the mating of D comber 21,
shout 8i oViook, firing in the direction
of our wood train, en route to the pinery
for limber, was beard, and the pickets
on the luokout hill immediately oignal
cd Indirns in that direction. Company
C. Sect lid United States Cavalry, and
about forty-five infantry, under com
mand ot Brevet Lieu. Col. Fetterman,
accompanied by Lieu G. W. Grnm
mond and Captain F. 11. Biown, with
orders to go to the aid of tbo wood train
and if they thought they could take it
to the pinery and return iu salty, to do
so, were immediately got read . Mean
while, Indians" appeared on the hills
across the Pinery Fork, about a mile
distant, although scattered and in small
quaDtiti' S. The 12 pounder was got in
to posi’ion to give them a shell or two,
and Co'. Fettermans party started out
the northwest gate.
‘‘The Indians had begun to ‘light out’
from among the bushes along the banks
hf Piney Fork as a shell or two went
over their heads in the direction of their
comrades on the hills. The firing by
this time had c?as and in the dir -ction of
the wood train, and Col. Fetterman
had gone down into the valley of the
Piney Fork (which runs only about four
hundicd yards from the north corner
of the Stock ide,) to where the Indians
were gathering out of the bushes, and
who nad not been seen till one or two
shells from the 12 poaoder bad begun to
make them think it was not exactly safo
around there ; they had evidently beeD
laying in ambush there since some time
before daylight. They were, I should
judge, ab ut one hbndred and fifty in
number, and they were running up ra
vines and from one place to another to
kerp out of sight. When Col. Fetter
man got into the valley, he threw out a
skirmi h l.ne as ho advanced toward the
creek ; the Indians were retreating in a
notherly direction toward Peno Criek
i Valley, where I/eut. Bingham and Ser
geant Biwers were killed on the oth.
A small party of men joined Colonel
Fcttcrman’s party in the Piney Folk
Bottom, eor>)isting of abou; three sol
diers and three or four citizens, who
j went out on their own hook.
“Colenel Fettcrmau’s party kept on,
and finally disappeared over tbe hills to
ward Peno Creek Valley, and shortly
after heavy firing was heard iu tl at di
rection. It was by this time most 11
o’clock, a. m., and everything in tbe
garrison pursued its regular routine of
garrison duty. About half-past It,
a. m., a messenger arrived from the scene
of action aud requested more assistance,
and men were soon gathered to the
number of about forty five, uader charge
cf Capt.T. Ten Eyck, to go to their
assistaueo. The messenger reported the
Indians charging on our men in great
numbcrc. 1 waa anxious to go, and I
could not get a gun handy without go
ing down to the company after my own,
aud I knew I would not have time
| enough f>r that, so I concluded not to
go, but an intimate friend of mine wont,
i and 1 get the following statement from
iiiin, and ho i«, I think, a v -ty good
l judge ;
1 “He says they proceeded in haste to
the field, »nd upon arriving at the edge
o’ Peno Creik Valley, th y discovered
fu ther down and iu the valley, what
appeared to he old eo'tonwood limbs
stripped of their bark. The valley was
oue moving b idv of Indians, yelling,
riding around and cutting capers, as far
down the valley as the eye o-11 reach,
j My friend cstitnited them at from three
'ofivc thousand, anil he has seen armies
iu every pod ion, and I think he has
made a car.ful estimate They pro
| ceeded along the edge of the valley to
j see if they could find any trace if Col.
j Fetterman, but not daring to go down
into the bottom of the valley, f.r they
knew it would be folly, for tiny would
be immediately surrounded by ihe In
| and ans if they eh uld. They em'inuod
along the edge of the valley until they
got to a point opposite to where the ap
parent cottonwood trees were lying, and
: Cap'aiu Ten Kick sent twenty men to
i go and wn audexamiue the scattered ru
; bish, and 10, and behold, they were the
i dead bodies . f Colonel Fetterman and
j party, and not oue was found to have
the least particle of I fe left.
“When Captti'i 'Jen Eyck left the
\ post, an am hula.', ce and three army wag
! ous, with hay in the bottom, to bring
in the wound and and take out 3,000
rounds of amunit.ion, were sent cut di
rectly after C .ptaiu Ten Eyck's party
had left. After it had be .n discovered
that none of Colonel Fettcrman’s party
were left to teii ihe fa’c, the wagons am
bulances were driven down, and all of
he men, except a few that were left on
a high point to keep a lookout, went
down to load up the bodies. 'I he In
dians had retreated di wn the valley,
and did not seem overanxious to renew
tbo combat, but very slowly kept giv
ing hack, leaving about thirty-five dead
on the field, being unable to bring them
in, but return :d tbe next day, the 22d
instant end brought iu the remain
der. The bodies were stripped petfect
)y naked and horribly mutillatid—some
had the top of their sculls cut off and
their brims tikeu out—others with
their arms cut out of socke', aud were
mutillatcd in every shape and way im
aginable, and had arrows in considera
ble qualities stabbed in their bode s
Oue man, a soldier in Company E,
Second Bat'alion, eighteenth Infantry,
had one hundred aud sixty-five arrows
in his body; ano her sixty-five, and
some had only five Oi six, more or less.
From all appearances the best evidence
is, tuat tho party Col Fcttevu>an ( s
went down into the valley on charge,
and only one hundred Indians were vis
able • and when they had got fairly into
the bottom, Indians sprang out from
among the ravines and behind the lit
tie hills, in immense numbers, and im
mediately runout did them—i.r trey
had eviden ly fought to the last linn,
and by all appearances funght well,
bodies were all in the tp ce of forty
feet square, although tin) wire tut
pld on the top of each other. Tho In
dians could not have fi rished ti sir work
of toitue many minutes before tbe arri
val ot Captaiu Ten Eyck's party, f. r
heavy firing was heard, after he had
crossed the piney Fork, iD that direc
tion. I hive given you the particulars
as far as 1 can, as far as the fight is con
cerned, I will try and relate the feel
ings of the garrisons ua founda
tions of such a fact. Our total 1 ss is
three officers, seventy six enlisted unn,
throe citizens I know of, and perhaps
more.
“Colonel Carrington, in his di.qntrh
reported. ninty four killed bit 1
think it is less than that in nunipir i
kn <w, on the 221 instant, Captain Ar
nold came into the i tlhe and tuld the
Sergeant Major that tie want and every
Company to accouut for every man, as
there were ninety dead bodies at this
post, and there were seventy-six cnlis'ed
men and making a to ul of
seventy-nine, accounted, tor rnakiug a
defi iacy of eleven men. The gaivison
was ia a high state of excitement after
tho dead were brought iu, aud i\j doubt
tho Indiana could have taken the frt
if they had followed up their sueces ', as
they vrete in overpowe.ing numlees.
The geiural assembly was sounded ani
troops formed iu line of tattle ab ut 4
o’clock p. m., m the 21st. Colonel
Cirringten made a speech and sdd some
euc uragiug words. Oar whole armed
force that time only mustered one hund
red and eloveu men in fightiug trim.
Think of that Immediately aber dark
platforms were built to every loophaie,
and wagous were hauled in a circle
around the magi zinc to make an effect
ual stockade, determined to fight to the
last man.
“At 8 o’clock p, in., the same day,
the general assemble was sounded again
and the troops wi re again formed into
line. The Culonil said a few words,
aud the troops deployed around the
stcekade at the loop holes,so that every
company would know which si lo tu
take and every man what laep hole to
take iu case 1 1 au attack. Our deter
mination aud that of our officers was to
fight at the loop holes around the stock
ade as long as possible, and then fill
back into the stockade around the mag
azine with the women of tho garrison,
aud there fight to the last man, if nec
eisiiy, blow up the magazine ; I think
that we could standjjagiiust a Urge force
at the loop-holis, as wc have the advan
tage of good- ized 1 gs to stand behind.
We were called in as soon us we had
ourplaces assigned to us. A running
i guard or night wa‘ch has been kept iu
the e mpanie’s quarters every night
since, aud 1 think it will continue iu
the future. There was not much sleep
Ahat night, everything quiet, men talk
ing in squads iu low voices, guessing
if some wounded man had not made his
escape and oue man left to toll the talc ;
j but none has yat appeared, and all hope
is given up. I however, went to bed
and slept well until about half past two
o’clock a. m., when I awoke and found
the Colonel sitting by the stove talking
and gasing with some cf tho boys who
was still up. The special courier had
left that night for Fort Laramie with
dispatches of the full accounts and re
inforcements.
‘The 23 ] and 24th parsed off quietly.
Tho exert’men had somewhat pars and off

full of life aud good humor, also d"g
