Interesting letters have been received
from Professor Agassiz, giving an account
of the astonishing scientific discoveries
he has made in the river Amazon. Under
date of September Sth, he writes that he
had then obtained more than three hun
dred species of fish, although he had, to
that time, only examined one-third of the
Amazon without trenching on its affluence.
He had only counted on, at most, two
hundred and fifty or three hundred species,
and he says that not third of those he
collected belong to known ones. The latest
report is that Agassiz was to leave Manaos,
in Amazonas, on the 10th of September for
Tabatinga, in Peru.

ANDREW JOHNSON.

It seems to us that it is the duty of
every good citizen to do all he can to
help and sustain the President OF the
United States. No ruler on earth has,
in any degree, responsibilities so great
as those which rest upon the shoulders
of Mr.. Johnson, and no ruler is better
entitled to support; for he is but the
agent of the people, and all he proposes
to build is to enrich them and strength
ell the republic. We trust, therefore,
that the people will contribute what
they can toward strengthening his
hands and the hands of those of his
Cabinet whose purposes are just. For
ourselves, we eschew all partizanship,
and shall always stand ready to do JUS
tice to the intentionsandacts ofPresident
Johnson.

The written arguments of the counsel
for four of the persons charged with i'm
plication in the assassination of Presi-
dent Lincoln were read before the WASH
court martial on Monday. a rt
The argument of Hon. Reverdy John
son, counsel for Mrs. Surratt, was con-
fined almost exclusively to an effort to
show that military court could have no
jurisdiction in such cases, but that the
accused could only be legitimately tried
in the civil courts. He announced that
it was not his purpose to make any re-
view of the evidence, but stated that it
was unreasonable to suppose that wo-
man of Mrs. Surratt's character could
have been engaged in SO wicked plot,
and intimated that the testimony of the
principal witnesses against her indicated
that they were much more likely to have
been cognizant of the conspiracy than
she was ss
Mr.. Stone, the counsel for Harold,
while admitting that his client had
aided in the escape of Booth, contended
that there was nothing i'm the evidence
to show that he was in any way engaged
in the assassination.
Forthe prisoners Arnold and O Laugh-
lin, Mr.. Cox, their COUNSEL, maintained
that they were not in any way en-
gagged in the Conspiracy, and demanded
their acquittal.

THE PEOPLES COLUMN.

We shall keep open in the Post, what
we denominate .'the Peoples Column, "

lie veal, may be discussed" order !
that is, in a spirit of decorum and can
dor. For the sentiments and opinions
contained in this class of papers, OF
course, no one expects us to be response
bile. It is enough, that we give all men
an opportunity to go before their fellow
citizens, upon such questions as may
arise-whether politics, agriculture, me-
chanics, literature, music or the fine
arts. In this way, the citizen can, IL
he chooses, "speak in public" without
going on the stage. 1t is desirable, OF
course, that all communications intend
ed for this department should be reduc-
ed to the smallest limit consistent with
fair illustration of the topic in hand.

clare Jefferson Davis worthy of death,
they will by Implication, admit that
George Washington would justly have
been hanged by us if h0 had fallen into
our hands," There is not in the first
place, any analogy between the situa-
lions of George Washington ami Jeffer-
son Davis. One warred against English
tyrants and brutal King: the oeher
followed in the footsteps of South Caro-
lima, and contended, without cause,
against liberty, equality and govern
ment that protected and conferred great
honors upon him. In the next place,

THE EXCHANGE NATIONAL BANK.

We call attention to the advertise
ment of the Exchange National Bank
of Norfolk, in another column.
This Bank is organized under the Ma
tional Banking law, and is designated
Depository and Financial agent of the
United States. The Stockholders and
the Board of Directors are of the solid
and substantial men of the city, some of
whom have been long known to the old
est citizens of N Norfolk, while others have
but recently selected this city as their
future place of residence. The officers
of the Bank are thoroughly eonversant
with the business of banking, and the
Teller and Book-keeper will be recog-
nized as gentlemen who have for many
years occupied like positions in the old
banks of the city and who are ready and
willing to serve their old acquaintance
as well as to greet cordially the enter
prising business men, whether from the
North or the South, whose steps are be-
ing turned to this city.
This Bank has been established with
in the past month, and its doors have on
ly been opened for business for a few
days. We are informed that it has al
ready long list of depositors and its
success is established beyond the posi-.
bility of failure.
We wish it, and all like institutions
which may be established in this city
for the benefit of the people of Norfolk
and for the purpose of extending facili
ties for the transaction of Legitimate
business, every success.

President johnson has issued two inn
portant proclamations, which are pub
lished in this mornings Post. In one
of these the President appoints the Hon.
William l.. Sharkey, Provisional Cover
nor of the State of Mississippi, and di-
reefs that he proceed, at the earliest prac-
ticable period, to take measures for call
ing q convention of the people, the dele
gates to which shall be elected by the
unqualifiedly loyal only, for the purpose
of altering or amending the State consti-
tuition and taking such other action as
shall be necessary to restore the Com
monwealth to its constitutional relations
to the National Government. This pro-
clamation is similar in its instructions
and provisions to that appointing Mr..
Holden Governor Of North Carolina.
The qualifications of electors after the
redistribution of State government is left
to be fixed by the convention or by the
Legislature, and the Secretaries of State,
Treasury, Navy and Interior and the
Postmaster General and District Judge
are directed to take the proper steps for
putting in force the various laws which
fall within the province of their depart
ments. r
The other proclamation of the Presi-
dent is supplementary to those hereto
fore issued regarding the removal of the
restrictions on trade in the lately insl,r-
rectionary States. 1t declares the remo-
val, with certain specified exceptions, of
all restrictions on trade-internal, coast
wise domestic and foreign-in and with
ports in the States heretofore pronounced
in rebellion, east Of the Mississippi river,
after the lst day of July next. The Pre-
sident also proclaims that, the authority
of the United States being undisputed
within the limits of Tennessee, all disa-
bilities and disqualifications attaching
to said State and its inhabitants are re-
moved.

Governor Holden has issued his first
proclamation to the people ofNorth Caro-
lima. Heinforms them that conversion
to alter or amend the State constitution,
to provide fer the election of Governor
and Legislature, and to put the civil ma
chinery in full operation, will be held at
as early a period as practicable. I'm
doubted loyalty to the national govern
ment will be required of all delegates in
this convention, and of all persons who
vote for them. Those desiring to vote
will be required to take the oath of allie
glance, and to prove their good will to
the national government. Magistrates,
whose duty, among other things, it shall
be to administer the oath of allegiance,
and other civil officers, to act Temperate
ly, will shortly be appointed by him for
the various districts throughout the
State. The Governor appeals to the peo-
pie to renew their cheerfulness, their
usual pursuits and their interest in the
prosperity Of the State and nation, re-
Winding them that all of welfare and
happiness that they have or that they
can hope for, for themselves or their
children, is indissolubly bound up with
the Union. The colored people, in an
nouncing to them that they are now
free, he informs that it rests with them
selves to prove whether this freedom is
blessing or an injury, and counsels
them to cultivate habits of order and in
dustry. es sa f:
