the war was really over, and that, ere
long, their sons and brothers would be
at home again, enjoying the comforts of
a lasting peace.
Corn planting is over, as also sheep
shcaring, and the people have time to
talk. Every where too the fields and
meadows promise an extra yield to the
reaper and mower, and although there is
not what can be called good crop of
fruit, still there will be apples enough for
domestic use, with here and there a few
peaches. Upon the whole, the country
has great cause to rejoice at the abund-
ance before them.

General lee.

4 decided change has taken place
in the public mind as to the share of
General Lees responsibility, the ex-
tent of his guilt and the punishment
he deserves. OF this he probably S
not ignorant; andit is not likely that
his reflections are made particle
less e oomy by the arrest and incar-
ceration of the rebel leaders, with
the view of trying and furnishing
them according to the law Of the
land. There was time when public
feeling in the North was very charit-
able taward Lee, but he dashed it all
by his farewell order to his troops !;
by his failure to utter single word,
going to show he would not do over
what he has done in the interest of
the Rebellion, or that his only regret
is not that it failed. Furthermore,
the damaging fact appears against
him, that though knowing to the hor-
rid barbarities practised in the rebel
prisons, he uttered not a word of pre-
test, when but word from him would
have materia ly mitigated the condi-
tion of our suffering, dying men,
This circumstance authorizes the sus-
picion, to say the least, that he knew
of and assented to. not only the sys-
tema;ic torture of prisoners, but also
the scheme to burn Northern cities
and shipping, and to perpetrate the
other oarbarities disclosed on the tri-
al of the cons pirators. This is a
grave suspicion, but the person en-
tertaining the most charitable fee ing
tow"rds General Lee will not con-
tend that he is not clearly open to it..
This charge of feeling toward the
rebel General-in- Ceie.f has been brat
about by no sudden impulse, but is
the result of close perception and
careful weighing of evidence.
Those who were disposed to assign
to him position eleva ed above Da-
Wis, Benjamin. and other conspira-
tors, and higb-toned character that
rendered him incapable Of cruelty or
any set not in accordance with honor
and christianity, have foun it impos-
sible to do 80 in the face of all the
evid nee that has come to light, show
ing that he silently assented to, if he
did not advise, much of the barbarism
which has made the Rebel cause thro'
out the civilized world the synonym
of all that is monstrous In crime and
cruelty.-Pitts. Com.

Highly Important Order.

The following circular was issued to-
day by Gen. Howard, Chief of the Freed
mems Bureau and approved by the
Secretary of War, who orders all military
authorities to sustain and aid the several
State commissioners in the execution of
its provisions:
WHEREAS, A large amount of land in
the State OF Virginia, and in other States
that have been in insurrection, has been
abandoned by disloyal owners, and is now
being cultivated by freedmen
WHEREAS, the owners of such lands
are attempting to obtain possession of
them, and thus deprive the freedmen of
TIE fruits of their industry, it is ordered
that all such abandoned, lands in the
State, now under cultivation by the freed
men be retained in their possession until
the crops now growing shall be secured
forsheir benefit, unless full aud just CON-
nensation be made for their labor and its
pfedsets,. land for expenditures.

General Lee.

1t is remarkable to notice how much
on the increase is the feeling against Gen
Lee. The peop'e are at loss to know
why it is that he is still at large. They
seem to consider him more immediately
responsible for the horrid treatment oi
our sold cIs than any one else, aud this is
the secret of their growing severity
We never thought it likely that the gov,
eminent would put him on equal footing
with Davis, but we do think, ON the Other
hand, that public opinion will compel it
to do something toward furnishing him.
Punishment we think is the least the gov
ernment can afford to do in his case.
