ANDREW JOHNSON,

By direction Of the President a copy Of
this was ordered 10 be sent to GOV. Sharkey.
On September %, the President received
a dispatch from Governor Sharkey, stating
that General slocmn had issued an order
preventing the execution of his proeama-
ton of the 18th, and acknowledging the re-
ceipt Of the copy Of the dispatch sent to
General Schurz on the 3Oth ult., which
dispatch Governor Sharkey earnestly re-
quested permission to publish. To this
request the President replied by telegraph:
any dispatch was not intended for publi-
cation but you can make such use OF 1t as
you deem best"
The same day the following dispatch was
sent to General Slocum:

out the sweeping Southern confessions
they must be adopted, according
70 Stevens, or Reputation must follow, with
al its fearful consequences.
VIII Congress adopt this Jac0bin pro-
gramme2 VIII either house attempt it
against the numerous manifestations from
al parties in the loyal States in favor Of the
restoration policy Of President johnson ?
We should think such an attempt ont Of the
question if experience had not taught Us
that the threats OF these abolition 5aeobins
are invariably followed up BY action. We
may look, therefore, for violent and per.
sistsnt effort on the part Of the radicals il
the coming Congress to upset the eonservs-
tive restoration policy Of the President, and
to enforce the revolutionary Jacobin policy
Of Stevens, Sumner, Chase, Wendell Phil
lips and their followers. Hence the duty
devolving upon the people Of the loya
States IN the approaching elections Of mani
testing Their approval of PresidenGJOhBson,
eaurse snd their condemnation Of this abo
lltion Jaeobin programme, in a voice which
cannot be misunderstood.

The MIssisslpnI Ease

The Washington Chronicle says this is
correct version Of the correspondence be-
tween the President Of the United States,
and Gov. sharkey Of Mississippi
On the 9th ult Governor Sharkev issued /
a proclamation calling on the people Of the
State to organize under the militia laws Of /
the State in each county, force 20 detect /
and spprehend criminals and prevent
crime. The president saw this prOclama- |
ton, and it is supposed approved it, as he
issued no order countermanding it.
Upon the 29th of August The President
received q dispatch from tho Hon. Carl
Schurz, expressing fears of the propriety Ct
Governor Sharkey's course, and deprecating
any action by the President adverse to the
order issued by Major General slocum, the
department commander The President,
under date of August 20, telegraphed 10 Mr.
schurz as follows:
/ preseme General Slocum will issue no
order interfering with Governor sharkev's
efforts to restore the functions of the State
without first consulting tae Government.
! and giving the reasons for yucb PROMISED
interference. It is believed there can la
organized in each county force of citizens
or militia TO suppress crime, res,,re order.
! and enforce the civil authority of he state
and Of the United States, which void enc
bic the Federal Government 10 reduce the
army and withdraw to a great exteu the
forces from the state, thereby reducing the
enormous expenses of the Government If
! there was any danger from an organization
of the citizens for the purpose Indicated, the
military are there TO suppress, on the first
| appearance, any move insurrectiOnary in its
! character. One great object is to induce the
! people to come forward in defence of the
state and Federal Governments. General
Washington declared that the people, or the
militia was the army of the Constitution, or
the army Of the United States and as soon
as it is practicable the original design Of the
Government should be resumed, under the
principle Of the great charter of freedom
handed down to the people by the founders
Of the Republic.
The people must be trusted with their
Government. aud if trusted my opinion is
that they will act in good faith, and restore
their constitutional relations with all the
States composing the Union. The main OBJ
ject Of Major Generul Carl Schurz's mission
70 the South, was TO aid as much as prsctica-
blein carving cut the policy adopted by the
Government Tor restoring the States 10 their
| former relations with the Federal Govern
ment. It's hoped such aid has been given.
The proclamation authorizing the restora-
ton Of the state Government, requires the
military 10 aid the Provisional Governor in
the performance Of his duties, as prescribed
! by the proclaim alton, and in no manner %
interfere or throw implements in the way
of the contamination Of the object Of has
I appointment, at least without advising the
Government Of the intended interference.
