RESTORATION OF SOUTHERN EsrATLs TO
PARDoNED OwNERs.-During last week up
wards of dozen citizens of the South, who had
obtained their pardons, made personal applica-
lion at the Freedmen's Bureau at Washington
-3or the restoration of lands which had been
takes iato the custody of the bureau On pro-
duction of the certificates of pardon, the appli-
cants were furnished with orders upon the local
agents of the bureau in the South for the resti-
tuition of the property claimed, with the provi-
sion that the owners be made to compensate the
blacks for the crops they may be cuhivating
thereon, or leave them in undisturbed possession
until the same are harvested.
-Ap editorial in the Washington Chronicle,
(the Government organ,) OF a few days since,
says:
A very strange doubt or miscoDstruction ex-
lists in regard to the effect of the President
pardon upon the property rights of the rarty
pardoued.
It appears that the President has the authori-
ty of Congress for granting amnesty aud pardon
for all offences against the United States CON-
mitted during the late rebellion, and that be
has exercised the power thus conferred by re-
storing all property rights to the parties, even
where legal proceedings had been Instituted,
but. not consummated. IF the proceedings are
begun under this act of eonfscation in any
Court of the. United States, the pardon has the
4effect of quashing them on payment of cost by

THE Power OF CHLoRoFoRM GIVEN In

THE Power OF CHLoRoFoRM GIVEN In
rERNALLY.-A man named Anthony Duffy
aged thirty-fve, a laborer in Washington square,
was, on returning from his work, seized in
Fourth street with hemorrhage from the lungs
Seating himself on the steps of dwelling, he
soon became insensible, and rolled upon the
pavement weltering in blood. While blood was
still streaming from his mouth and nose, and he
appeared gasping for breath in the agony Of
death from suffocation, physician appeared and
poured the contents of vial of chloroform
probably about two teaspoonsful, into his mouth,
and from that moment the hemorrhage ceased
Twice afterward the remedy was repeated in
smaller deses, and the man was relieved, rescued
as by miracle from impending death
1t is now claimed for this remedy that it re.
leves the chill of fever, sunstrokes, commissions
and all kindred affections supposed to be de-
pendent upon congestion. But it must, in all
such cases, be given by the mouth and not by
inhalation.-NeU York Ners

FREEDMEN'S BUREAU.

The following judicious and wel-timed order
has just been issued by Col Whittlesy, at his
Office in Raleigh.
Many erroneous and improper ideas prevail
among our colored population, which no one can
correct SO readily as Colonel Whittlesy. Our
seaders will be gratifed by the reading Of the
following order:
, Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned
Lands, H'dquarters Asst. Commissioner,
State of North Carolina,
Raleigh, N. c., August Is, 1865.
Circular, No. 8.
1t is reported that many freedmen refuse to
enter into contracts for labor, because they be-
lieve that farms will be given them by the u.
S. Government. II any do thus believe, they
have no reason for their belief The Govern
mcnt owns no lands in this State. It therefore
can give away none. Freedmen can obtain
farms with the money which they have earned
by their labor. Every one therefore should
work diligently, and carefully save bis wages,
till he may be able to buy land, and possess his
own home. E. WHITTLESY,

would have the State ready, With her Constitu-
ton reformed and her members OF Congress
elected by the first Monday in December, when
Congress convened.
In conclusion, let me say to you, fellow elti-
gems, that l am well pleased with all that saw
! and heard at Washington in reference to the
Southern States. Let US now do our duty, take
the oath of allegiance, elect good and wise men
to the Convention, reform our State Constitution,
abolish slavery, equalize the representation OF
the State in the Senate, give the election OF
Governor and Presidential electors to the people,
and all will be we'll. Immediately after the
Convention has reformed the Constitution, the
Legislature will be convened to elect United
States Senator'S and provide for the election OF
members of the House of Representatives In
Congress. This may all be done by the first
Monday in December next, when the State will
be fully restored to all her rights under the
Constitution and laws of the United States.
EAST DEMONSTRATION a letter written by
gentleman at Bristol, the Memphis Bulletin
extracts the following items:
Mr. Mmms, worthy citizen of East Tennes-
see, was brutay murdered in his own yard at
Morristown few days since. No cognizaBce
whatever was taken of the deed by the authori-
ties.
The M'Dowells and other leading families
have been forced to leave Greenvile to save
their lives
Where peace once prevailed now anarchy
reigns supreme. Murders and violence daily
occur, at which it seems Heaven could but
blush.
A lady in Jonesboro', writing to-a friend in
this city, July 26th, expresses the opinion that
in six months there will not be respectable
Southern family in that town or surrounding
country that possibly get away.
It is also stated on good authority that Capt.
Lenoir, late of the rebel army, was recently
taken from his house at Lenoir, East Tennessee,
carried into the woods and murdered in cold
blood. The parties who perpetrared this out
rage are unknown.
