LETTER FROM NATCHEZ.

NATcHEz, Miss, July ed, 1868.
Mr.. EpIroR :-Natchez is one of the
most beautiful of all the fair Southern
cities that have yet been occupied by the
Army of the Tennessee,"-that army
which, in its onward progress, sustain
ed by the loyal at home, has at length
burst the chains of the Mississippi, SO
that the old flag goes floating down
daily from Cairo to the Gulf.
The occupation of Natchez has led
to important results for our cause, and
has made us acquainted with the sen.
timents of a portion of the Southern
people, removed in measure from the
desolating effects and terrible sacrifi-
ces the war has necessarily brought
upon the parts of country our army
have occupied; ard thinking it may
be of interest to some of your readers
to hear from this part of Dixie, trans
cribe some of the particulars of our ad-
vance.
The force sent from Vicksburg for
this purpose, left that place July 18th,
and consisted of the l4th and 18th
Wisconsin, and the 72d and 95th llli-
nois infantry, and Powells Minnesota
battery, all of Gen. Ransom's brigade,
and commanded by him. The fleet
was attended by the ocean gunboat
Arizona, and arrived at Natchez July
18th. where the troops Immediately
disembarked, and the regiments form
ing in line, marched up the bluff, with
coIors out and music playing, through
the streets of the city, giving the peo-
pie an opportunity for the first time to
see regiment of blue coats. Although
| am sure the boys marched well, and
made good appearance, the express
sion of joy at our arrival among the
citizens were very limited. Sour and
glum looks met us on every side; but
the colored population, consisting not
only of those properly belonging to
Natchez, but large numbers brought
in from all parts of Louisiana and Mis-
sissippi, more than made this up in
their extravagant demonstrations OF
joy. They hailed us as never soldiers
were hailed before. But to show yon
the state of mind to which many of the
Southern people have been brought by
their own passions and prejudices, in-
famed by artfnl Misrepresentation,
I will relate an incident that occurred
to Captain sent out with his compa-
ny on our arrival, to the limits Of the
city on picket duty asH
Many citizens came to converse
with him, and among others a re-
spectacle looking elderly gentle

him by the constitution, and therefore
their rights are infringed, although
they admit there is an armed foe in oul
land who are endeavoring to subdue
this Government, and that there is a
great Rebellion no one in his senses
dare deny. The only reason that can
be offered for their hostility to the sus
pension of the writ, is, that it has been
used with advantage to ninety-nine
bad men where it has been of disadvan.
tage to one good, law-abiding citizen.
Therefore, by suspending it, ninety-nine
base traitors are in danger of getting
their just deserts, whilst but one inno-
cent man can in all probability be in
jured by it, very good reason for
traitors to offer. jeff Davis would
clap such traitors on their shoulders
and say, brethren, contend earnestly
for the faith, for wherein you divide
the loyal States you strengthen me-"
Copperheads have great aversion to
martial law being extended over 10y
al States, and think this an assump-
ton of power by the President not
warranted by the constitution. They
seem to fear it may infringe upon
their constitutional rights, and they
howl and hiss most piteously on ac-
count Of it. Why, Cops, the extend
ing of martial law was for your spe-
cial benefit. 1t never was extended
to infringe upon the privileges of 10y
al citizens. 1t is to be hoped that
you will shortly receive the benefit of
all the laws made for the suppression
of this rebellion, by either forever
abstaining from Kissing treason, or be
locked up in some snug military prison
and your wear out their loathsome
lives in fruitless efforts to give aid and
to rebels.
Yours, respectfully,
WV. III. JOHNSON.

THE RAIN WILL COME.
BY JENNIE GAIGE.

The rain will come, for the sky is red
Where the scorehing sun has made his bed,
And the breeze that cools the heated earth
In the dampened cloud-land had its birth
Its gentle touch, as it fans my cheek,
OF the rain-drops presence seems to speak.
As the breeze sweeps by, the forest heaves,
And the silvery side of the dark oak leaves
Are turned to viaw in the dusky light
That comes from the setting sun tonight;
The gentle sway of the tasselled corn
Seems like dream of the dewy morn.
The rain will come, for the perfumes fair,
Floating along on the summer air.
Seem in their odorous breath to tell
OF journeys from whence the rain-drops dwell
The plants that were dropping faint to day,
Look up and answer to what they say.
The rain will come, for now, behold
Across that harvest fields waving gold
The clouds are piling themselves on high
Along the belt of the southern sky.
And that little streak of FURNISHED red
Is duller grown, like molten lead.
The clouds were white an hour ago.
But see them darken, above below
See them roll along-around--on high
See that lightning fash along the sky,
And hark to the thunder's rolling drum;
Joy joy to the earth, the rain has come

Methinks now | can see our goot
old Puritan fathers preparing to keel
Thanksgiving. l can see them at The
dawn of day arise--see the father tak'
down the "big ha bible," and aftel
reading portion and explaining th'
same in his severe style, close the vol
ume, bow the knee and heart, and rev
erently pray to Heavens High King.
The hours sped away, and the sount
of the "church going bell came watt
ed to their waiting ears. Then the
family, from gray haired grandsire to
lisping childhood, master and matron,
daughter and son, all went to the
church, where from the sacred desk
the minister Numbered forth, "Thus
saith the Lord" They heard his first,
ly" and his "nineteenthly," and then
pealed through the church from floor
to dome, in pillows of sound, .
"Be thou oh God exalted high"
Service over, home they went, and
they passed the balance of the day
in Cody conversation. Good old fa-
theirs with hearts filled with love
ah, with your hearts as full of kindness
as your children's are to-day, you drew,
as dark mantle around you, the re-
ligion of God, and kept back the sun
shine that else would have penetrated
your hearts & diffused genial warmth
throughout every abode. Such anoth-
er example of fortitude and high deter
mination that successfully combated
and overcame every obstacle, sue
cumbed to nothing, advanced the col
umn of civilization, until "cities stand
where forests frowned," redeemed
America, and scattered the germs of
Liberty from one ocean to another,
cannot be found in any history of any
exiles from any land. *.s

'Tis highland by the gate stand
And think, my soldier boy, Of thee,
When thou first didst take my hand
And breathe sweet words of love to me.
My head was on thy shoulder leaning;
My hand in thine was gently prest;
Thine eyes so dark and full of meaning
Were looking love, and was blest
There sounded high the bugle's note;
Then sprung our gallant sons to save
The flag, the country and the laws,
Or, fighting, find for them a grave!
The cannon's laundering voice hear,
see the serried bayonets CLEAN,
And torn by shell and battle spear,
mark our banners proudly stream.
All, well | know that thou art there,
Where helmet CLEANS and white plume waves
Where fields are heaped with men and steeds
With banners, drums and broken glaives.
