Address—The Manager "Sun" Printing Offices, 3, Churai row, Savoy, Strand, W,O. The Rev. H. Ward Beecher. The Rev. 11. Ward Beecher has addressed the following letter to Captain Duncan, a member of his congregation : Pookshill, Aug. 8, 1806. My dear Friend,—l am obliged to you for your letter. I am sorry that my friends and my congregation are grieved by my Cleveland letter. This feeling, however, has no just grour;ds, whatever may be the seeming. I have not loft, and do not propose to leave, or to be put out of the Republican party. lam in sympathy with its aims, its great principles, and its army of noble men. But I took the liberty of criticising its policy, in a single respect, and to do what I could to secure what I believed and still be- Hove to be a better one. I am, and from the first have been, fully of opinion that the amendment of the Constitution, proposed by Congress, equalising representation in the Northern and Southern States, was intrinsically just and reasonable, and that it should be sought by a wholesome and persistent moral agitation. But, from the present con dition of the public mind and from the President's attitude, I deemed such a change to be practically impossible in any near period by political action ; and a plan of reconstruc tion based upouthat seems to me far more like a plan of adjourning reconstruction for years, at least, with all the liabilities of mischief which are always to bo expected in the fluctuation of politics in a free nation. It is not the North that chiefly needs the restoration of Government to its normal sphere and regular action. Either the advan tages of Union aro fallacious, or the continuous exclusion of the South frem it will breed disorder, make the future reuntlitoen v m e o ry re difficult,worst t of society which cat well and especially subject the freedmen to exist. No army, no Govern men t, a nd no earthly power can condition compel the South to treat four millions of men justly if the inhabitants (whether rightly or wrongly) regard those men as the cause, or even the occasion, of their unhappiness and disfran c hi seme nt. But no army, or government, or power will be required when Southern so ciety is restored, occupied, and prospering in the renewed Union. Then the negro will be felt to bo necessary to Southern industry, and interest will join with conscience and kindness in securing for him favourable treatment from his fellow-citizens. We that live at a distance may think that the social reconstruction involved in the eman cipation of four million slaves is as simple and easy as it is to discourse about it. But such a change is itself one of the most tremendous tests to which industry and society can be subjected; and to its favourable issue is required every advantage possible. The longer, therefore, the South is left in turmoil, the worse it will be for the negro. If there wore no other reason; if the white population wore not our fellow-citizens ; if we had lost all kindness and regard for them, and all pride for the Union, as in part ropresented by Southern States, and confined our attention exclusively to the negro, the case would be strong beyond my power of exprepsion, for an early resumption of Federal relations with all the States. If this is to disregard the ne gro, then all social and natural laws have been studied in vain. Neither am I a "Johnson man" in any received moan ing of that term. I accept that part of the policy which he favours ; but with modification. I have never thought that it would be wise to bring back all the States in a body and at once, any more than it would be to keep them all out together. One by one, in due succession, under a practical judgment, rather than by a wholesale theoretic rule, I would have them readmitted. I still think a middle course between the President's and that of Congress would be wiser than either. But with this my agreement with the President ends. I have long regretted his ignorance of Northern ideas and sentiments, and 1 have been astonished and pained at his increasing indiscretions. Un consciously, the President is the chief obstacle to the re admission of Southern States. It is enough that he is known to favour a measure to set the public mind against it. This is to be deplored. But it is largely owing to his increasing imprudent conduct. I believe him to be honest, sincere in desiring what he regards as the public good, but slow and unapt in receiving help from other minds. Proud and sensitive, firm to ob stinacy, resolute to fierceness, intelligent in his own sphere (which is narrow), he holds his opinions inflexibly. Ho often mistakes the intensity of his own convictions for strength of evidence. Such a man has a true sphere in periods of peril, when audacious firmness and rude vigour are needed. But in the delicate tasks of adjustment which follow civil war such a nature lacks that tact and delicacy and moral intuition which constitute tho true statesman. Mr. Johnson's haste to take the wrong sido at the atrocious massacre of New Orleans was shocking. The perversion and mutilation of Sheridan's despatches need no character isation. I do not attribute this act to him Yet it was of such a criminal and disgraceful nature that not to clear hfinself of it by the exposure and rebuke of the offending party amounted to collusion with crime after the fact. NVhat shall I say of the speeches made in the wide recent circuit of the executive ? Are those the ways of reconci- , liation ? Yet Mr. Johnson is to be President for nearly three years to come, clothed with a power which belongs to few thrones. Beside the honour which a people owe to him as the chief magistrate, we must, as Christian citi zens, credit him with his real excellencies —his original horror of secession, his bold resistance to treachery, his persistent and self-denying heroism in the long, dark days of Tennessee. We must not forget that he has jealously resisted a centralisation of power in the Federal Govern - ment ; that he has sought to dignify and secure a true State rights ; that ho has maintained simplicity of manners and a true love of the common people. It is our duty, likewise, to forestall 'and . prevent as much as possible by kind but faithful criticism of his errors on the one hand, and by sympathy and kindness on the other, those dangers to which he is liable under attack which he 113 peculiarly Johnson's faults, and now speak so plainly only lest I seem to approve or cloak them. And now allow me to express some surprise at the turn which the public mind has taken on my letter. If I have never before spoken my sentiments Jean see how friends lnight now misapprehend my position. But for a year past I have been advocating the very prin ciples of the Cleveland letter in all the chief eastern cities— in Boston, Portland, Springfield, Albany, Utica, Rochester, Buffalo, liarrisburgh, Pittsburgh, and Brooklyn (at the Academy of Mtthic, last winter). These views were re ported, discussed, agreed to, or differed from, praised and blamed abundantly. But no one thought, or at least said, that I remember, that I had forsaken the Republican party, or had turned my back upon the freedman. My recent letter but condenses those views which for twelve months I have been earnestly engaged in urging upon the atten tion of the community. lam not surprised that men dis sent. But this sudden consternation, and this late dis covery of the nature of my opinions, seem sufficiently sur prising. I could not ask a better service than the reprint ing of that sermon of last October, which first brought upon me the criticism of the Tribune and the Independent. I foresaw that, in the probable condition of parties and the country, we could not carry suffrage for the freedman by immediate political action. When the ablest and most Radical Congress of our history came together theyrefused to give suffrage to negroes even in the district of Columbia; only indirectly, not as a political right, but as the hoped-for result of political selfishness, did they provide for it by an amendment of the constitution. What was prophecy with me Congress has made history. Relinquishing political instruments for gaining the full enfranchisement of men, I instantly turned to moral means ; and enunciating tho broadest doctrine of manhood suffrage, I gave the widest latitude to that, advocating .the rights of black and white, of men and women, to the vote. If any man has laboured more openly, on a broader principle, and with more assi duity, Ido not know him. Moro ability may have been shown, but not more directness of purpose nor undeviating consistency. I attribute ree,ent misunderstandings partly to the greater excitement whi;ll now exists; to the narro wing of issues, to the extreme exacerbation which Mr. Johnson's extraordinary and injudicious speeches have produced. To this may be added my knpwn indisposition to join in criti cism upon the President, and the fact that I urged a mo dified form of that policy which ho, unfortunately for its success, holds. Upon Mr. Johnson's accession I was supremely impressed with the conviction that thq whole problem of reconstruc tion would practically pivot on the harmony of Mr. Johnson and Congress. With that we could have secured every guarantee and every amendment of the constitution. Had a united Government said to the South, proniptly backed up, as it would have been, by the united North, " With slavery we must take out of the constitution whatever slavery put in, and put in whatever slavery, for its own support, put out ;" there can scarcely be a doubt that long beforo this the question would have been settled, the basis of representation in the South conformed to that in the North, and tho principle, the most fundamental and im portant of all, might have been established in the constitu tion, viz., that manhood and full citizenship are identical. Such great changes required two things, viz., promptness and unity of counsels. To secure these I bent my whole strength. I urged the purgation of the constitution. I reasoned against mutual distrust, and pleaded for unity of governmental action. I did all that I knew how to do to confirm the President in his war-begotten zeal against slavery ; to prevent such suspicions and eliminations as would tend to revive in his mind old prejudices, and bring on a relapse into his former hatred of Northern fanatics. I thought I understood his nature, and the extreme dangers at such a critical timo, of irritating a proud sensitive, and pugnacious man of Southern sympathies, little in sympathy with Northern feelings or ideas, and brought into the very leadership of those men and that train of principles which he had all his 'life hated and denounced. That ho was sincere and tenacious would make the case all the more difficult. I thought I foresaw that a division between him and Congress would be the worst disaster that could befall us ; that the practical test of true statesmanship just then was not to be found in theories or philosophies, however sound, but in securing and confirming Mr. Johnson in his then dispositions. Upon the assembling of Congress I wont to Washington. I found Southern men lying prostrate before Mr. Johnson, and ap pealing to his tender-heartedness (for he is a man of kind and tender heart), disarming his war rage by utter submis sion. I f _mud Northern men already uttering suspicious of his fidelity, and, conscious of power, threatening impeach- mont. The men who seemed alive to this danger were unfortunately not those who had the management of affairs. Bad counsels prevailed. The North denounced and the South sued ; we see the consequences. Long after I de spaired of seeing the President and Congress harmonious, I felt it to be the duty of all good men to leave no influence untried to lessen the danger, and to diminish the evils which are sure to come, should the President, rebounding from the Republicans, bo caught by those men who were in sym pathy and counsel with the South throughout the war. I shall not attempt to apportion blame where both sides erred. It is enough to say that unity secured at the seat of go vernment would have been a noble achievement of leader ship. Deeming the speedy admission of the SouthernStatcs as necessary to their own health, as indirectly the best policy for the freedmen, as peculiarly needful to the safety of our Government, which, for the sake of accomplishing a good end, incautious men are in danger of perverting, I favoured, and do still favour, the election to Congress of Republicans who will seek the early admission of the recu sant States. Having urged it for a year past, I was more than ready to urge it again upon the various conventions which preceded the nomination of representatives to Congress this fall. In this spirit, and for this end, I drew up my Cleveland letter. I deem its views sound : lam not sorry that I wrote it. I regret the misapprehension which it has caused, and yet more, any sorrow which it may have needlessly imposed upon dear friends. As I look back upon my course, I see no deviation from that straight line which I 'have made, without wavering, for now thirty years of public life, in favour of justice, and the elevation of the poor and ignorant. The attempt to class me with men whose course I have opposed all my life long will utteily fail. I shall chose my own place, and shall not be moved from it. I have bomb from my youth, a firm, unwavering, avowed, and active friend of all that wete oppressed. I have done nothing to forfeit that good name which I have earned. lam not going weakly to turn away from my settled convictions of the public weal, for fear that bad men may praise me, or good men blame. There is a serious difference of judgment between men as to the best policy. We must all remit to the future the de cision of the question. Facts will soon judge us. I feel now profoundly how imperfect my services have been to my country compared with its deserts of aoble ser vices. But lam conscious that I have given all that I had to give, without fear or favour. Above all earthly things is My country dear to me. The lips that taught me to say "Our Father" taught mo to say "Fatherland." I have aimed to conceive of that land in the light of Christianity. God is my witness that with singleness of heart I have given all my time, strength, and service to that which shall make our whole nation truly prosperous and glorious. Not by the lustre of arms, even in a just cause, would I seek her glory, but by civilisation that would carry its blessings down to the lowest classes, and nourish the very roots of society by her moral power and purity, by her public con science, her political justice, and by her intelligent homes, filling up a continent, and rearing up a virtuous and nobler citizenship. By night and by day this is the vision and dream of my life, and inspires me as no personal gmbition ever could. I am not discouraged at the failure to do good I meant, at the misapprehension of my church, nor the severity of former friends. Just now those angry voices come to me as rude winds roar through the trees. The winds will die, the trees will live. As soon as my health is again restored, I shall go right on in the very course I have hitherto pursued. Who will follow or accompany it is for others to decide. I. shall labour for the education of the whole people; for the enfranchisement of men with out regard to class, caste, or colour; for full development among all nations of the liberty wherewith Christ makes all men free. In doing this I will cheerfully work with others, with parties, any and all men that seek the same glorious ends. But I will not become a partisan. I will reserve my right to differ and dissent, and respect the same right in others. Seeking others' full manhood and true liberty, I do not moan to forfeit my own. Better days are coming. These throes of our day are labour pains. God will bring forth ero long groat bless ings. In some moments which it pleases God to give me, I think I discern arising beyond the present troubles, and over the other side of this abyss in which the nation wallows, that fair form of liberty—God's dear child —whose whole beauty was never yet disclosed. I know her solemn face. That she is divine I know by her girdle of purity, by h er sceptre of justice, and by that atmosphere of love, that issuing from her, as light from a star, moves with her more royal than a king's apparel. In this, too, I know her divinity, that she shall bless both friends and enemies, and yield the fullest fruition of liberty to those who would have slain her, as once her Master gave His life for the' salvation of those who slow Him.—l am your true friend and pastor, HENRY WARD BEECHER BURIED ALIVE.—A man named Vaughan was engaged in getting stones from a quarry at Laneside, Fo rest of Dean, a few day ago, when a landslip took place, and he was buried in the rubbish. When recovered the unfortunate man was dead and his head frightfully bruised. The poor wife, on hearing of it, became insensible. The dog, which had not forsaken its master, wailed in a most piteous manner. • Deceased has left a large family. The publication of Mr. Ward Beecher's letters has led Mr. Horace Greeley to publish a statement re specting the early Mouths of Mr. Johnson's presi dency. Mr. Greeley says :• "I was one of many who early apprehended and anxiously deprecated a breach between Congress and the President. Soon after our last State election, and before the assembling of the present Congress, I went, not uninvited, to Washington expressly to guard against such a difference. Being admitted to an interview with the President, I urged him to call to Washington three of the most eminent and trusted expositors of Northern anti-slavery sentiments and three equally eminent and representative Southern ex-rebels, and ask them to take up their residence at the White House for a week, or fortnight, or so long as they might find necessary, while they, by free and friendly conference and discussion, should earnestly endeavour to find a common ground whereon the North and the South should be not merely reconciled, but made evermore fraternal and harmonious. I suggested that the President should occasionally, as he could find time, drop in on these conferences, and offer such suggestions as he should deem fit—rather as a moderator or common friend than as a party to the discussion. " A suggestion of names being invited, I proposed those of Governor Andrew, of Massachusetts, Gerrit Smith, of New York, and Judge R. P. Spaulding, of Ohio, as three who seemed to me fair representatives of the anti-slavery sentiment of the North, while neither specially obnoxious to nor disposed to deal harshly with the South; and I added that I hoped they would be met by men like Gen. Robert E. Lee, Alexander 11. Stephens, &c., who would be recognised and heeded by the South, as men in whose hands her honour and true interests would be safe. But I added that I had no special desire that these or any particular men should be selected, wishing only that those chosen from either section should be such as to command their people's confidence and support. And I pledged myself to support, to the extent of my power, any adjustment that should be matured and agreed upon. " Some two months later, after the meeting of Congress, and when the political sky had become darker, I went again to Washington, on the assu ' ranee of a mutual friend that the President desired to see me. The joint committee on reconstruction had then been appointed. At an interview promptly accorded I urged the President to invite the committee to the White House, and discuss with them, from evening to evening, as friend with friends, all the phases of the grave problem of reconstruction, with a fixed resolve to find a basis of agreement if pos sible. I urged such considerations as occurred to me in favour of the feasibility of such agreement if it were earnestly sought, as I felt sure it would be on the side of Congress. The vast patronage in the President's hands—the reluctance of the majority iu Congress to see their friends, supporters, and nominees expelled by wholesale from office, and their places supplied by bitter adversaries— the natural anxiety of every party in power to maintain cordial relations with the head of the Government chosen by its votes —these, and a thousand kindred considerations, ren dered morally certain an agreement between Congress and the President without a sacrifice of principle on either hand, if the latter should sincerely seek it. I speak only of what I said and proposed, because I have no permission and no right to speak further. That my suggestions were not followed, nor any thing akin to them, the public sadly knows. And the conclusion to which I have been most reluct antly forced is, that the President did not want harmony with Congress—that he had already made up his mind to break with the party which has elected him, and seek a further lease of power through the favour and support of its implacable enemies."

The Government has decided upon putting into immediate execution the new Act of last Session for the better prevention of contagious diseases at cer tain naval and military stations, which takes effect from and after the 30th inst., at the port and gar rison at Chatham, the arrangements of carrying out the Act being entrusted to the metropolitan police. The former Act (the 27th and 28th of Victoria, cap. 85) relating to the same subject will cease to operate from the date mentioned. In order to carry out the operations of the amended Act to their fullest extent, the Government has entered into - an arrangement with the governors of St. Bartholo mew's Hospital, Rochester, for fitting up a portion of that establishment for the reception of female patients belonging to the class who come under the operation of the Act. The governors of the hos pital have agreed to appropriate 40 beds in the hos pital for the purposes required, the Government con tributing to the funds of the hospital £4O per annum for each bed. Hitherto patients from Sheerness have been sent to the Rochester Hospital, but arrange ments are being made for the conversion of one of the military buildings at Sheerness into an hospital for the reception of female patients. The seaport and garrison towns to which the Act applies are—Ports mouth, Chatham, Plymouth and Devonport, Wool wich, Sheerness, Aldershott, Windsor, Colchester, Shorncliffe, the Curragh, Cork,.and Queenstown. The undermentioned arrangements have been ap proved in connection with the, camp at Colchester: —Lieut. Johnston, 82d Regiment, to join the depot on the 6th of October ; Lieut. Clarke, 100th Foot, to join the service companies as soon as possible; Lieut. Barker, Ist King's Dragoon Guards, to pro ceed to Hythe, to undergo a course of musketry instruction; Ensign Powell and Skinner • 2-18th Foot, to proceed to the service companies as soon as a passage can be provided ; Capt. Boulton, 100th Regiment, to proceed to the service companies with the draught now under orders. The Royal Sovereign, screw turret ship, Capt. A. Herbert, is ordered by the Admiralty to be paid out of commission at Portsmouth on the 10th proximo. The Admiralty have also further ordered that the Royal Sovereign, after paying out of commission, is not to be handed over to the charge of the captain of the Steam Reserve of the port, as is the ordinary course pursued with vessels under similar circum stances, but that she is to be attached to the Excel lent gunnery ship for drill'OurPc"/ to instruct sea men in the w or ki ng o f h e avy ordnance in turrets. It is reported, however, that the Royal Sovereign will shortly be again commissioned with a full com plement of officers and men b y Ca p t. Cow p er P. Coles. To the paying out of commission of th e Royal Sovereign at the present time there can be no great objection, on•the ground of her re-commission by Capt. Coles, or even as a matter of economy, during the time her after-turret is being rebuilt ; but we trust Sir John Pakington does not intend placing her officers on half-pay, several of whom have notlong been borne on her books, and have therefore necessarily gone to considerable expense in their outfit for what they had :good reason to believe would be the usual three years' term of service in their ship. The screw sloop corvette Reindeer, 7, 200 horse power, fitting at Chatham for commission, is to be placed in one of the available docks at Chatham for the purpose of being examined to ascertain whether she has sustained any injury from having taken the ground during the recent official trial of speed at the measured mile. _ _ . The 'Charybdis, 17, 400 horse-power, screw cor vette, has a large number of shipwrights and other hands employedon her at Sheerness dockyard, where she is undergoing some heavy repairs toboth hull and machinery. Her decks are ripped tip, and she is being supplied with new timbers and beams where necessary. Her boilers have been removed, and her machinery and engines are undergoing an extensive overhaul and repair. She will be detained in dock for some time to come.

Much difference of opinion, says the Wolver hampton Chronicle, seems to prevail in this locality as to the actual prospects of the iron trade during the approaching quarter, and the action which the Association of Masters will take at the preliminary meeting, to be held in Birmingham, on Thursday next. A considerable section of the trade, embrac ing many,of the old established firms, and those who have least difficulty in adhering to the list prices, seem disposed toretain the price of Staffordshire bars at the present figure, £8 10s. per ton. It is gene rally understood that this course will be the one recommended by the leading members of the panel of chairmen in whose hands the management of the trade is left. But on the other side of the question there are many iron manufacturers who are com pelled to accept much lower prices than those fixed at the meeting of the association, and it is understood that there is a desire on the part of these makers, or of a considerable portion of - them, to see the list rates made more nearly to coincide with the average price which Staffordshire commands. We do not profess to be in a position to offer an opinion as to which of the above modes of action would best serve the inte rests of the general iron trade of this district. We shall therefore content ourselves with stating the arguments which have been adduced in favour of either course. It will be remembered that about six weeks ago the constitution of the association was considerably modified, and that under the rules then adopted all members of the trade became eligible to join the Ironmasters' Association, and we understand that a large number of firms who were formerly re garded as outsiders availed themselves of the re vised regulations and joined the society. Thus the Ironmasters' Association now represents the greater part of the manufacturers. The original association was a close compact, and only num bered just those firms in whose hands by far the greater Bart of the Staffordshire trade rested, and who also formed a large proportion of the national iron trade, as this manufacture was then principally carried on in this locality. The society as at first constituted was capable of ruling the prices which should be paid for finished iron in this district, and it was from this centre that other manufacturers of malleable iron naturally took their rates. It is evident, therefore, that the present association stands in a different relation to the local and national trades than did its predecessor. Now the second class manufacturers, or, in other words, those ironmasters who do not attempt to be guided by the list rates, and who are selling their iron at a considerable reduction below the published prices, are nevertheless compelled to base their scale of wages on those paid by the first-class houses. As there seems no prospect of any great activity in the iron trade during the approaching winter, and con sequently, as they are not to get advanced prices during the next few months, they would be glad to see a modification in the list prices. Another sec tion of the trade appears anxious to discontinue the system of quoting list prices at all. It is understood that this course would meet the approbation of all in th e c b o e u m n t a r d y e . T th h e o o se th N e v r ho ir a o d n vo p e r a o t d e u t c h i a n t g u d o is o t h ric a utgseshould this quarter urge that, considering the dispute still existing in the North of England, and the uncertain state of the iron trade of this locality, until the re sults of the late financial crisis have passed away, it would be impolitic to introduce any change which would interfere with the whole wages question of the district. Under the uncertainty which prevails as to the course which will be adopted to-morrow, transac tions are restricted to the narrowest possible limits, though the general impression appears to be that there is a more healthy tone about the trade, espe cially as affects home consumers. Still some little influence must be attributed to the stoppage of the north country forges and mills, whereby certain pressing orders which would have been executed there have found their way into Staffordshire. We notice that the Great Bridge and Leabrook Ironworks, recently conducted by Messrs. Solly Brothers, have been formed into a limited liability concern, under the title of the Great Bridge Iron and Steel Company. The managing director is Mr. J. Solly. In the matter of the Lawton Iron and Steel. works, Mr. J. P-ercivall, of Birmingham, has been appointed provisional liquidator. Of course an im portant topic of discussion at the meetings last week was the strike in the north, especially as it had oozed out that the Brierley-hill Union and thateoWutotl o fo w r e t re he men on send nr h dfro p m ton £2 ll o l o ill t m o e i n 3 's oo As p s e o r ci w at e i e o k n strike. A correspondence which had passed between the London Working Men's Association and the acting-secretary of the North of England trade had fallen into the hands of certain members on Thurs day afternoon, and the letters were a good deal talked about, as the wages which appear to have been earned in some works during the last six months have been very great, and seemed to remind the trade of the statistics of earnings which came out in connection with the North Stafford strike last year. Our advices from that locality state that no very material change has taken place during tho past week. The rolling mills at Jarrow, which have been in parti a l o p eration f or some weeks, N.VC113..ClO in not pletely closed on Saturday last, and it is !:I , d w 2 be opened till next year.
