The South Carolina correspondent of the Balti more Gazette writes the following letter, in which he portrays the dissatisfaction of the negroes, and pre dicts that they will rise in insurrection : " Sampit, Sept. 28, 1865. "The negroes are beginning to show their hand. En raged at the disappointment of not having the lands and plantations parcelled out to them by the United States Government, there is no doubt in the minds of the calmest and oldest planters that an effort will be made this winter by the blacks forcibly to possess themselves of the plantations. In plain words, it is pretty well ascer tained that an insurrection is contemplated, and prepara tions are being made to that end. Unfortunately for the peace of the neighbourhood, one large estate has fallen into black hands, and while every other gang of negroes on the river has been brought under white rule, the three places belonging to this estate afford sanctuary to malcontentsand a safe focus for sedition. It is known that an old blacksmith, Tony, is refusing all work for whites, and receiving all guns from negroes to put in order. This is an indication unmis takable, and could the local authorities be made to believe that the opinion of planters is worth some consideration, there is yet time for the evil to be arrested—but when spoken to on the subject, the Provost Marshal laughs and says he 'thinks not.' Of course, if the negroes were not wily and cunning, like all savages, they would be little to be feared; but their strength is in their dissimulation—they have taken the measure of the Yankee foot, and know that pre sents of melons and wild grapes and fowls, and a mingled servile and silly manner, can blind the sharpest officer in the United States service. These are their tactics, and so the officer calls them a jolly set of boys., these midnight robbers and would be murderers. Let the Abolitionists look to it—there will be a rising of the freed negroes, and some planters will be murdered and many women and children dishonoured and butchered, but such a flame of vengeance will be kindled that the black race will be exterminated by the United efforts of the Northern and Southern men. On this ground there will be union fast and firm, for there is not a Northern soldier iu the ranks ever stationed here that does not learn to see that the blacks are only fit to be ser vants, and must be forced into that position. If planters are to begin anew to plant their lands, let it be recollected that they are now citizensof the United States and entitled to demand full protection in their pursuits, which neces sarily isolate and expose them to danger and death from the deadly enemies with whom they are now actually contending—for the struggle has already begun. On several plantations the negroes havo given notice that they will not hire themselves as labourers ; that they must either hire or buy the land. On many plantations they sullenly refuse to answer when questioned as to their intentions. On one or two they have named wages from 815 up to $3O a month as the only terms they would accept. Now, what is to be done with a peopla so impracticable, so blind to their own interests as to insist on pushing matters to a conclusion which they are forcing on the most, obtuse planters, viz., there is no alternative except white labour, and to that complexion we shall come at last? Slowly and reluctantly, but surely, this conviction is gaining ground, and it is one fatal to the negro ; under the most 'aNturable circumstances the blacks will be forced into a competition with white labour, but were there no pressure exercised the advantage would be all on the side of the negro, better suited to the heat, better fitted by custom for the work, and better able to subsist on less wages than the white race in this climate. The blacks, therefore, hold the solution of the labour question entirely in their own hands. The planters would be glad not to make the wrench neces sary to substitute whites for blacks, because it involves much trouble and possibly a change of culture, either in the manner of watering rice, or, perhaps, in planting cotton and indigo instead. The negro has the inside track in the race, but the winning depends on his not baulking. " On one of the plantations where the negroes have been orderly and quiet the whole gang struck in the midst of harvesting, and said they would not work under the orders of the head negro, but wanted their own man ; they lay in the sun two days while the birds ate the crop, half of which was their own. They did not pretend to have any cause of complaint, it was simply the malice of a parvenu raised to power he is unworthy to exercise, and desirous of show- ing his irresponsibility. These are the drawbacks to that perfect understanding between the masters and their freed slaves which it is so easy to talk of at a safe distance as the duty of enlightened planters, and as simple justice to wards the poor unoffending negro. If the advocates for elevating the black race would only undertake it them selves, leave off their damnable faces and begin, it is pro bable that they would, after a duo course of aggravation, consider the gibbet the most practical means of elevating the mass through the righteous punishment of a few. The two negroes who murdered Skinner were bung yesterday in Georgetown, and three others, accessory to the fact, were imprisoned. Immense numbers of blacks went to see the execution. The men ' died game,' as it is falsely called— that is, utterly stolid and impudent, without saying one word. Young Coachman, whose life they threatened on the same occasion, and who escaped by a miracle, was the only planter who went to see the hanging ; he felt it right to do so. Billy, the head of the crew, recognised him as he was mounting the gallows, and started and stared at him, but made no sign. As the bodies swung off a deep groan rose from the crowd of negroes. "The return of the enlisted men, which must now soon be expected, adds an alarming element to the already lowering storm in the near future. These men are the bone and sinew of the district, mostly between the ages of 18 and 25, unmarried, and were a heavy loss to the indus try of the neighbourhood. They will come back with the prestige of military dash, with the recklessness of youth, and the power of disciplining and influencing the masses. From one owner on Pedee 40 went to the United States' army, and so on in proportion. Now, to ignore the danger of the return of these United States soldiers is simply to drift carelessly over the Falls of Niagara —we are in the rapids, and only by strong and untiring steering can we save ourselves from destruction. We must appeal to the United States, to the highest and chiefest, as best qualified to understand our needs, and apply the remedy. Local authorities may trifle, but the heads feel more deeply the responsibility. Next winter, at the time when it is pro posed to discharge such labourers as refuse to be hired or are unacceptable to planters, it will be proper to send a large reinforcement of United States troops here, and to have a squad of a sergeant and five men on every planta tion where masters and families are residing. This would prevent the necessity of State legislation in arming a heavy police force, a measure which, while imperatively called for, would nevertheless be looked upon probably with dis favour by the general Government. The very sparse white population of this district must be heavily added to some how in time to anticipate the evil, not to avenge it. We raise our voice and call for assistance in this, our deadly peril, for the overpowering majority makes all idea of re sistance hopeless if things culminate to a crisis. Reckless and improvident, the negroes who refuse to work will find themselves in January without food, clothes, or shelter ; the temptation to crime will be to such natures irresistible. Four barns have been already broken into, and this not from necessity, but from the wantonness of evil. If these things occur now, whilst the corn and rice—half of which has been given to the negroes—are waving luxuriantly in the fields, what hope is there of any law-abiding conduct next winter, when the food, so lavishly bestowed on them by decree, has been so lavishly squandered ? This sort of premium so given to idleness and insolence will have the worst possible effect on their habits—' the lightly won, we lightly prize.' A belief in the continued bounty of the United States is ineradicable in the negro mind. Faults of legislation, springing out of gross ignorance as to the race they were dealing with, are about to recoil as deadly in struments of woe upon the people they were meant blindly and most unjustly to benefit at the expense of the planters. They were indeed totally, perhaps irretreviably, ruined, because with the throwing out of at least two-thirds of the lands from laziness, and the vastly diminished product from negligent tillage, the planter must, at best, have been seriously injured ; but the giving half the crops to the negroes has taken away the possibility of securing enough to pay wages for the coming year, and unless planters can mortgage their lands to carry on the cultivation, it will be very long before the plantations can be brought into order. Famine looms gauntly in the distance, not for the whites-- they may suffer, but the blacks must starve. To think of the wicked waste encouraged by the Georgetown authori ties among the negroes in the spring makes one fear that retribution will be a measure of divine justice. On Mrs. Trapier's plantation, between March and September, 200 negroes made away with 9,000 bushels of rice. Mrs. Tra pier and her family were, by the agent of the Freedmen's Bureau, refused 50 bushels for the support of a family of 10 persons, and but for the kindness of neighbours, only a little less distressed, the family must have starved, while the negroes, aided and abetted first by Colonel'Brown, of. the 157th New York Volunteers, and then by Mr. Fox, agent of the Freedmen's Bureau, refused to allow one grain of rice to be taken by the family. Mrs. Trapier took the oath of allegiance and became a loyal citizen of the United States in the month of May. She is eighty-four years old, and has been persecuted as relentlessly as if she had been chief of a guerilla band. On one occasion 30,000 dollars worth of silver was carried off from her house, whilst at the same time the public documents printed for the outer world declaredthat 'all private property must be respected.' We were cut off from all help by a circle of fire, and then pillaged and plundered at the will of every ruffian of the 157th New York Volunteers (and a precious set they were), and the booty they carried off from terrified women would require pages to enumerate. The injury that was done by the contact of such men with the negro, in the first days of his freedom, will never, probably, be retrieved in this district. First impressions aro the strongest. The negroes were taught by-their best friends to rob and murder, and the lessons sank deep, like the seeds in upturned loam. The crop of evil is now ripening to fruition ; we have still a few months to prepare for what we see coming. Inaction will probably bring about a war between the races ; we wish to prevent this ; so we speak out, and give timely warning, and call on those who wield the power to protect us from the peril in which we stand." The Reduction of the Price of Gas. Yesterday an influential deputation from the parishes of St. Olave, Southwark ; St. John, Horselydown ; St. Mary Magdalene, Bermondsey; and St. Mary, Rotherhithe, waited upon the direc tors of the Surrey Gas Consumers' Company at their offices at Dockhead, for the purpose of repre senting to the directors the resolutions which had been agreed to at various meetings which had been held in the respective parishes on the subject. Of the deputations who had been appointed from the different parishes there were present—from St. John's parish, Mr. Wilkinson, Mr. Slee, Mr. Rendle, Mr. Rees, Mr. Marks, Mr. Davis, Mr. Mills, Mr. Gutteridge, and Mr. Meade, (who re presented the firm of Peake, Frean, and Co). From the parish of St. Mary Magdalene, Bermondsey, the representatives were Air Slee, Mr. Rogers, Mr. Bishop, Hon. Sec. of the Gas Agitation Society ; Mr. Battasby, Mr. Smith, and Mr. Braziel. For the parishof Rotherhithethere appeared Mr. Searle, Mr. Banat, Mr. Clare, Mr: Cox, and Mr. Chandler. The members of the deputation were summoned together by Mr. Robert Slee, the vestry clerk of SL John's, who has taken considerable interest in the movement, to assemble, at the board-room of the Rotherhithe Workhouse at one o'clock, and from thence to proceed to the premises of the Surrey Consumers' Company, where they might have the proposed interview with the directors. Accordingly, at the hour the gentlemen just named did assemble there, and after arranging the course of procedure they were to adopt, proceeded in a body to meet the directors of the company at the appointed place. Previous to their doing so, .it was arranged that Mr. Rendle, who is connected with more than one of the parishes, but who more particularly represented the parish of St. John's, should take the lead in the matter, and commenced the proceedings by stating the case of the consumers. The chairman of the board of directors occupied the chair, and there was a full attendance of the board. Mr. RENDLE, in opening the case on the part of the deputation, repudiated anything of a personal feeling which he entertained respecting the board of management. It was true he had several disputes with them, but these had all been amicably ar ranged, and he entertained no bad feeling towards the board whatever. He, however, came before them upon public grounds. He considered that in the interest of the public they ought to lessen the price, while at the same time the circumstances of these companies was a strong evidence that they ought to do so. He had attended at the meetings which had taken place on that side of the water on the subject, and he had found at all of them a com plaint that the Surrey Consumers' Company was going beyond its bounds. The Districting Act had, in fact, placed them in a most awkward position. What he maintained was that the Districting Act of 1860 had put into the hands of the directors of gas companies a power which they were notentitled to, and of which they did not give the consumers the advantage. But so far as regarded the present company, he had, upon the part of the consumers he represented, to place before them the following facts. In the first place, they said that the system of districting which had been adopted was not such as commended itself to the favour of the consumers. In the case of the Surrey Gas Consumers' Company it had been the very reverse. That was, therefore, what they complained of ; that system was adopted in consequence of an act of Parliament passed in 1860. That act had, to his mind, altogether failed in its purpose. In fact, it was obtained under a subterfuge, for the consumers were cajoled out of what they considered to be their just rights. Then there was another ground on which the consumers thought they had a right to claim a reduction. It was well known that the company had, in the com mencement of their proceedings, leased their works to Mr. Croll, who had carried them on, under alea,se of ten years, on the condition that he paid to the com pany a dividend of 8 per cent. per annum. That agreement had, no doubt, been carried out, but the consequence had beenthat the directors, having wil fully denuded themselves of the property for the space of that time, the shareholders were deprived of the dividends which might have accrued from it, while the capital was now chargedwith the payment of what was called " back dividend," and which went to keep up the price of gas. He maintained that the directors had no right to charge the dividend upon the capital of the company. Mr. MEADE, of Messrs. Peake, Frean, and Co., followed on the same side, and referred to the price of gas in Plymouth as compared with London. There they got it for 2s. 9d. per thousand cubic feet, and he must say that their firm was astonished at the sum they were now charged by this company. He also complained of the quantity of the gas which they had got some months ago, while he admitted that it had improved recently. Mr. FINLAY, the engineer of the company, stated that the Plymouth Gas Company was altogether different from the present one. Mr. WILKINSON, the churchwarden of St. John's, Horselydown, also supported the statement of Mr. Rendle as to the exorbitant charge made by the directors of the company for their gas, and he ques tioned the illuminating power of it. Mr. MaioLsoN, one of the directors of the com pany, argued at great length in support of the sys tem the directors were pursuing. They had no other course of action left for them. By the act of 1860 they were bound to pay the shareholders 10 per cent. per annum, together with a bonus in order to make up past dividends, and the fact of the matter was that, what with the dividends paid and the sums paid in the shape of back dividends, that the share holders of the company had never received more than an average dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum. He also went on to contend that there had been actually a reduction in the price of gas on the part of the company, that had been effected in several ways. In the first place, there had been an i ncrease i n the illuminating Power. What they were bound to by the act of Parliament was to give an illuminating power of twelve sperm candles. Instead of that, however, the illuminat ing power of the company's gas was fourteen and a half and fifteen sperm candles. Independent of all this, he considered that the deputation from the various parishes came with a very bad grace to the board, inasmuch as they had each and all of them very much increased their rateable value in the course of the last two years. In the course of that time they had raised their rateable value assess ment from £1,280 to £4,100, and in that respect he contended that they had got a reduction in the price of gas, for the additional rates they paid to the parish must be the means of keeping down the rates of the other ratepayers. Considerable conversation then ensiled upon the quality of the gas supplied by the company. Mr. Wilkinson, Mr. Rendle, and others contended that the quality was bad, while several of the directors, and Mr. Finlay, the engineer, contended for its purity and illuminating power. Ultimately, the CHAIRMAN, in followinguptthhaet r emarks of Mr. Nicholson, expressed his regret the directors could not at the present time comply with the demands of the deputation. The reason Mr. Nicholson had explained--namely, that they must keep faith with the shareholders in terms of the act of 1860—as soon as they had done that they would be enabled to meet their wishes. No man would be more anxious to do so than he was him self, and he therefore hoped those who acted with hi patience, and he had no do they wanted. After some further cony , minated. S Mr. R. SLEE, vestry clerk of St. John's parish, on the part of the deputation, acknowledged, on the part of that body, the courtesy they had met with from the board of directors, and cordially thanked them for the kind manner in whicht hey had listened to their representations. •-•=, Naval and Military Intelligence. Col. Anderson, C. 8., commanding the 4th Brigade Field Artillery, at Woolwich, accompanied by Capt. and Adjt. Pearse, inspected the A battery of that brigade, in command of Lieut.-Col. W. W. Barry, C. 8., stationed at Horfield Barracks, near Bristol, on the 23d and 24th inst. After the inspection Col. Anderson addressed the officers, who were called to the front for that purpose, and said he could not depart from among them without acknowledging the gratification which the inspection of the first battery of the brigade to which he was attached had given him. He cordially congratulated the officers and men on the result, which he should faithfully for ward for the information of the Field-Marshal Commanding-in-Chief, the Duke of Cambridge. The War Department steam vessel LordPan inure, Mr. Moore, master in command, sailed - from Woolwich yesterday, laden with guns and other war stores, for Portsmouth. The Lord Raglan, Master-Commander Wilkins, sailing vessel, in the same service, is also shipping a similar cargo at Woolwich Arsenal for the same destination. A sample gun carriage and slide, manufactured for the Italian Government by special request, have been completed in the Royal Carriage Department of Woolwich Arsenal, and wm. yeiAt - .Alay_packed in cases for shipment to their destination. The matt rials are of the finest description of Indian teak and sabicu, proved to be the best adapted and most durable timber employed hitherto in the construc tion of those articles, and known to resist the ravages of the red ant found in tropical climates, and which are generally so destructive to the wheels and other parts made of oak and mahogany. They are intended for ship use. The slide is fitted with elongated flaps for pivoting the bow gun in action. The carriage and slide are carefully bound and strengthened in the necessary parts with gun-metal fastenings and bands, and every precaution has been taken to make the workmanship of the very first order and finish. It was stated yesterday that the late Lieut.-Col. A. C. Parker was the nephew of Admiral Sir Wm. Parker. This is a mistake. He was the son of the late Major-Gen. Parker, C. 8., Royal Artillery, and nephew of the late Admiral Hyde Parker, C.B. The Wigan Murder. .0.--- Yesterday, at Wigan, the prisoner John Healey, who stands charged on his own confession with being concerned in the murder of James Barton, at the Button ox Bawk house pit, Haigh, near Wigan, on the evening of the 2d or morning of the 3d of January, 1863, was brought before Mr. J. Lamb and the Rev. J. J. Dixon, at the Moot-hall. The prisoner maintained an appearance of the greatest indif ference during the whole of the examination, and as each witness concluded his evidence, in answer to the formal demand whether he had any questions to put, he invariably replied in the negative. The confession having been read over, the Magistrate asked the prisoner if it was correct. He said-"It is not all correct, Sir. I own that I had liquor with the men, but then I do not recollect where I went." Mr. Lamb asked him what he had to say about the murder. ilealey—l can recollect meeting the men, and afterwards getting drunk, but Ido not know what occurred after. A man may be in drink, and not know what he is doing. Mr. Lamb—You were not in drink when you made the statement? Prisoner—No. Mr. Lamb—Then how was it you made it? The prisoner made no reply, and evidence as to the mur der was then taken. William Wetherby stated that he saw the murdered man at the pit at 9 o'clock on the night of the 2d, and that he had a watch with him. James Watmough, a pony driver, described the state of the works when he came at a quarter past 3 next morning. Barton was xlissing; the engine was stopped. A fire which should have been lighted on the bank was out, on the cabin floor lumps of coal were scattered, and among them was a piece of a burnt muffler. He began to light the fire on the pit bank, and opened the door of the first furnace to got some coals. He could net do so as the first was nearly out and in the middle was a ridge as if it had been filled with w ood. John Barton, engine tenter with his father at the col liery, was called up about 5 o'clock to sot the engines to work, in order that the mea might descend the pit to look if Barton had fallen down. H 3 saw streams of blood on the dead plate of the furnace door, and finger marks on the wall near, as if there had been a struggle. George Armstrong, fireman, said that there was a smell when ho went into the fire-hole as of burnt engine grease, and he found blood on the furnace door. Thamas Barton, a son of the murdered man, said that between 12 and lo'clock on the night in question he was at Betty Ditchfield's, and when returning home he heard steam blowing off at the colliery. Ho came to the place and fired up next morning. He found in the ash-hole a cake of blood and grease. The piece of burnt muffler he himself had bought for his father. Police-sergeant Gardiner deposed that ho found in the furnace a strap buckle, a brace buckle, a few shoo nails, and some pieces of bone. Mr. C. D. Shepherd, M.R.C.S., proved that all the bones were human, and might have formed part of a full-grown skeleton. There was a portion of the arm bone, a piece of the thigh bone, the lumbar vertebra, and a piece of the skull. Superintendent Ellison charged the prisoner with the crime, when he made no reply. The last, and so far as the confession of Healey is con cerned, by far the most important witness was Java Little, a collier girl. Her evidence, which has not previously been before the public, was that on the morning of the murder she was assisting to load a boat with coal at the Bridge or pigeon pit, situated on the canal bank, between the Bawkhouse Col liery and Wigan. The towing-path was ou the opposite side of the canal to the colliery, and it was lighted from the pit bank. About a quarter-past 2 she was in the boat, and a man named Jordan was above lowering the coals. He was approaching with a full tub, when she saw four mon coming from Haigh, and proceeding towards Wigan. Jordan was just lowering a tub as they came near, and when they saw him they stopped suddenly by a heap of ashes. While he was fetching another tub they walked sharply past and over the bridge, where they waited until Jordan had lowered the next tub. The men had caps on. This evidence, so far as it goes, is decidedly corroborative of Healey's confession, and as it was never made public till yesterday there is but little probability that this portion of his story can have been invented from hearsay. The facts justmentioned have certainly inclined many people to believe that there is more in the prisoner's tale than they at first imagined. Having been charged in the usual way, the prisoner said he had nothing to say, and he was committed for trial at. the next Liverpool assizes.
