How New ORLEANS Is GovERNED.-The
last humiliation Of the wretehed white in
habitants of restored" New Orleans, has
been contaminated In order to bring up
the rising generation in the new faith Iof
miscegenation, Gen. Banks ordered that ne
gro children should be admitted to the pub
lie schools the same a. white children.
The natural result was that the white chill
dren were withdrawn from the public
schools, and private schools multiplied
This contumacy was Of course not to be
tolerated under the free government Of
Abraham Lincoln. An order to suppress
private schools was accordingly promulga-
ted, and under the guise OF restrictions,
oaths and conditions, so devised as to make
compliance with them impossible, nearly all
tho private schools Of New Orleans have
been closed, and the people Of that wretched
city have the alternative Of forcing their
children into association with negroes, or
bringing them upin ignorance. This 10 how
the Republicans propose to bring back the
people Of the South. ~

APPROPRIATE SUGGEsTIoE.--We observe
that some of the Republican journals are
advocating the revival Of thu Wide
Awakes," those valiant and gay young gen,
tlemen who whilom paraded the streets
with bad smelling lamps, wearing oil>tloth
capes to keep the drippings from soilins
their nice clothes, and scouting, with I'll
the force Of rather weak lungs, for Old Abe.
1t is highly appropriate, a. we'll Is en-
tirely practicable, that the "Wide,Awakes"
should be revived The young gentlemen
are all at home none Of them are absent
in the army; none have risked their
precious lives on the battle field, and, Of
course, none have received wounds in the
defence of their country which would dis
able them from again parading the streets
with greasy lamp and an oil-cloth cape.
They are all in good health, sound in limb,
and ready, and no doubt willing, to do val
liant service in the ranks--of the " Wids>
Awakes." Why should not the Wide,
Awakcs be revived What's to hinder. ?

SHORT TIME SINCE q number Of 0uI
city sbloods started out on the war path,
we'll supplied with the ardent, and deter
mined to have buggy ride. Several bug
eies were secured, and, as there was an odd
number of men, one of the, crowd was
obliged to ego it alone The party rode
out to Triadelphia, where they indulgeo
rather freely. Before starting on the re>
turn trip a member Of the squad went out
and took the bit and brides from the
mouth of one of the horses and tied the
reins to the names. The man who was
riding by himself jumped into the buggy
10 which the bit less horse was attached ;
the rest of the party jumped aboard, and
the return trip was commenced. A race
was proposed, and the horses were treated
to free use of the whip The Mohawk
vi o had charge of the unfortunate buggy
pulled and whipped his horse, but the ami"
NAL could not be brought either on one side
Of the road or the other, but seemed to 60
where he pleased. The driver got out and
led his horse up several bills, and necessa.
rily fell far behind the crowd, who we're
enjoying hearty laugh. The joke was
not discovered by the Mohawk until the
men were near the city, when the reins
we're adjusted and the horses returned to
to the livery stable.

Not expecting to, see you before the

this way my entire qualification with what
you have done up to this time. So far as |
understand it, the particulars of your plans
neither know nor seek to know. You are

this, wish not to obtrude any restraints or
constraints upon you, while l am very anx>
ious that any great disaster or capture of
our men in great numbers, shall be avoided
know that these points are less likely to

10 the President:
Your very kind letter Of yesterday is
Just received. The confidence you express
for the future, and the satisfaction for the
past, with my military administration, is
acknowledged with pride. 1t shall be my
earnest endeavor that you and the country
shall not be disappointed. From my first
entrance into the service OF the country to
the present day. have never had
cause of complaint; have never expressed
or implied a complaint against the
administration or the Secretary of War,
for throwing away the embarrassment in
the way Of my vigorously prosecuting
what appeared to be my duty. Indeed,
since the promotion which placed me in
command OF all the armies, and in view OF
the great responsibility and Importance, ]
have been astonished at the readiness
which everything asked for has been yield
ed without even an explanation being
asked. Should my success be less than
desire and expect, the least l can say is
the fault is not with you.
Very truly, your obi.
