Interesting Interview with the Pres.
1deMc
From the Memphis Bulletin.

From the Memphis Bulletin.
A short time ago, Rev. Andrew Kerr, q dis
tinguished Presbyterian minister of this State,
called on President johnson at the White House
The President and DR.. K. had known each 9TH
er in by gone years: The Doctor was an in
veterate Wing, as johnson was q Democrat.
The Doctor said to him, in substance, that he
had " called to express q share of that heart
felt gratitude which the south, as one man,
entertained because of the generosity of the
President, manifested in his course towards a
disarmed people. We sought to set up anoth-
er government. Had we succeeded, both
would have been, of necessity, from external
like you more tempting bait was never held
out by the temptress, ambition. The people
knew not what they did. They blindly followed
partisan leaders, and sought to overthrow the
Union in the maintenance and purity of which
consisted our sole hope of prosperity and hap
piness. You, sir, were truer to your coun.
try and to the best interests of your people
reviled you; when you were hated and de-
nounced as traitor to the land of your birth
when all wrongs and reproaches have been
heaped upon you when you might have made
US the veriest slaves and beggared our wives
and children; when you might have gathered
q radical congress to sustain you in all meas
ures of vengeance; you have risen above all
grievances, and made yourself the most gener-
GUS of all masters of the fortunes of q con-
quered people. God knows. Mr.. President
that am grateful to you, and in saying this /
give expression to the sentiments of my whole
people"
The President was deeply affected by the
earnestnees Of DR.. Kerr. His gray hairs. in
tellectud face, his heartfelt utterances. his
tears, were we'll calculated to excite stroug
emotions. Tears, too, stood in the eyes of the
President when he said: Il have, before
God, only sought to do my whole duty
love, like yourself. the land of my birth. !
can trust you, and my countrymen like you.
If we only do our duty all will be well. and
the wrongs and woes of the past will soon
be fogotten in action and utterances of men,
The parting scene between the two, the
statesman and the preacher. was deeply affect
ing. Both wept as they grasped each others
hand.

What the South il Doing,

The New York Post gives the following
summary of the leading subjects which are
now being discussed by the Southern
press; and are glad to add that the reor-
ganization and improvement of schools is
one of those most prominently urged:
The best and most thoughtful journals in the
Southern States are now occupied chiefly with
schemes for the establishment of industry,
the improvement of agriculture the organiza-
ton of manufactures, and the increase of po-
pulation and of educational facilities in the dit
ferent States. On these topics we meet in our
Southern exchanges with many able articles.
which show that very great change has come
over the minds whose duty it is to inform and
instruct the Southern people.

The Effect of the Presidents Pol
Icy Abroad.

The Detroit Free Press thus notices
the effect of the Cancellation policy of Mr..
JOHNSON upon our securities abroad
We perceive from our last foreign files that
the effect of the Presidents speech to the del
egstion from the South, which had been re-
ceived in London, was SO favorable that the
business in American securities was increased
to an unprecedented extent, ard that 5-20s adj
vanced two per cent
The improvement extended to all classes of
American securities as well as government
bonds, the prevailing sentiment being that a
permanent military occupation of the late in.
surpent States means national bankruptcy ::
that reunion, on the Presidents simple me-
thod, signifies national strength, solvency and
GOOD faith with the public creditor. This TO
reign view of the case entirely comedies with
democratic opinion here.

THE CHOLERA.
Appearance Of the Cholera in
England.

From the London Times, Sept. q.
We are informed on most unquestionable
authority that decided and undoubted case
of Asiatic cholera, with fatal result, has &C.
CURED lin Southampton. The victim was a
man named Rose, about thirty years of age,
residing in Brewhouse court, Brewhouse lane,
who died on Sunday, about thirty.eix hours
stage being those of the most virulent form of
this dreadful disease. The unfortunate man
himself dated his illness from having been en-
gagged few days previously in cleaning out a
very offensive cess-pool. Another case, that of
a woman living in different part of the town,
is also reported as presenting similar symp-
toms. Although these cases, should they both
an immediate prevalence of the epidemic, they
are sufficiently alarming to call for vigilant and
energetic measures, without an hours delay,
on the part of the local authorities, and, if ne.
cessary, sthe Government itself With a full
consideration of the fact that the town of
southampton, is in direct communication, by
means of the mail steamers, with the Meditter-
where the cholera now prevails, and at which
port these steamers call, every possible SANTA
ry precaution should at once be taken to guard
the health, not only of the inhabitants of South
ampton, but of the country at large.9
COMMENTS ON THE ABOVE.
From the London Times editorial.
At the moment when we were congratulate
ing ourselves, with every appearance Of reason
that the outbreak of cholera in the Mediterra-
mean portended no immediate danger to our
selves, we are warned by q paragraph in our
impression of this morning against being too
hasty in presuming upon immunity from this
mysterious plague. Two cases of decided
Asiatic cholera are said to have occurred at
Southampton, at least one of them having been
fatal in thirty six hours, after exhibiting all the
symptoms OF the most virulent form of the dis
ease. The two cases are said to have occurred
in different parts of the town, and it is
to be supposed, therefore. that they were
quite unconnected with each other. The
two sufferers would appear also to have
been inhabitants of the town OF Southampton, so
that the case cannot be explained away by sup
posing that the disease had been contracted in
the Mediterranean, and had only developed
itself after the arrival of its victims on English
ground. If the two cases have occurred as re-
ported, they must be considered as an appear
ance OF cholera among US, and it is possible
that they may prove to be the first two drops of
storm. 1t Is quite possible, of course, and,
we believe, more probable that they may be
better compared to mere heat drops, and that
there may be no cloud in the air from which
they tell. They may arise from purely excep-
tional causes, and may have no connection
with an incipient epidemic. At the same time
it would be fOol-hardy to neglect them. 1t
cannot be denied that in appearing first in
such town as Southampton the disease would
De pursuing its customary course.
