A southerner's Impressions of the North.

WHAT JUDGE LocHRANE OF GEORGIA SAW
81 Ia, AND HOW IT sTRUCK HIM. -.,4sT
The following is from the Atlanta Georgia.
hatelligencer of October 81:
We had the pleasure of a visit vosto-,,ou
from Judge o. A. Loehrane, who has ;uSt rc
turned from a northern tour. We were nj ,,iaaS
ed to find the Judge hopeful of our earIv ra
storation to peace and prosperity. He fo,,nd
in the North and at Washington, great lihar-
ality of sentiment in the mind of the peonia
and general disposition to let bygones be by,
gones The radicals, of course, he found BIT
ter in their denunciations Of the administra-
ton and the conciiiatory policy it had observ-
ed towards the South. Judge Lochrane had a
long and satisfactory interview with the Pres
ident, in which the present unfortunate con-
dition of the country was freely discussed.
He foun- the Chief Executive kindly dispos-
ed towards us, and determined to stem the
current that seeks to oyerwheim this unhappy
section In ruin. He thinks we have much to
nope Tor at the hands of Mr.. Johnson, and il
pecoIles US, as people, to sustain him and
ms auiilnin'sfration, lully, manfully, and with
I9ai M tllaG KNOWS no abatement. W ~

yielding to the Presidents policy of leaving
this matter to the states to settle for them
selves, and more conservative spirit is now
prevailing and widening daily. He alluded to
the impression that he had favored this doc
trine--an impression wholly erroneous. He
had never for moment entertained such an
idea, and regretted that he had been charged
with it. On the whole, the Judge gives us q
hopeful view of the condition of the country,
and its future prospects, and believes that we
will soon return to civil law, and have the
Freedmen's Bureau and military rule lifted
from us; and in this opinion not only himself
but the best men of the North agreed that
the day was not far distant when we may be
left to govern ourselves. -...... a

and Judge Linton Stephens. He was gratifed
at the kindly feelings expressed towards Mr..
Stephens along the entire route. .,,1,,.7ss II.

Case of Conscience.

LIIOm INC AbulADula lel6kFapnsl
We frequently meet with statements of
the effect Of conscientious scruples upon
the conduct of men, which often convey
useful lessons. Not go much for the effect,
as ssuhject Of study for c~ssuists, we give
this case:
A few days since An elderly man from
one of the Western townships called at the
First National Bank, and offered for sale. q
Second Auditors certificate for back psy
and bounty of his deceased son. The oblig-
ing cashier, Mr.. French, took if of him at
half per cent. discount, and paid him $500,
less 81 80. On looking st it again, Mr..
French saw that it lacked the old gents
signature TO the receipt, and wrote him to
call and sign it. But the old gentleman
did not call; whereupOn the cashier, being
in the neighborhOod, took occasion to call
on him. He vas willing to sign it, he
said, but having received only 1858 20 for
the $500, he could not co~nsoisntiously sign
8 receipt for the whole sum-he had too
much regard for the truth to write a lies
But if Mr.. F. would pay aim the 81 so, he.
could sign it with a clear conscience. AT
ter some vain attempts TO bring himto fses.
it, MI. +. paid him the change and took
his receipt, which be was then prepared TO
trutbfully sign. The Cashier of the First
National Bank thinks he has found q case
in which conscientious me2nness is deYel.
oped in the highest degree.

Many officers and soldiers of the Army
of the Tennessee having expressed q desire
to pay some fitting tribute to the memory
Of their late gallant commander, and noble
Mcpherson, who fell in the front of battle,
booted and spuErod, on the bloody day of
the 22d of July, L submit to the several
corps, and other commanding officers, for
their consideration, the following plan of
action. ..a -a.sa -t
1 would suggest that each regimentsl
commander have lists prepared Tor sub
seripiioD, snd that those soldiers OF the
srmy who msy desire TO subscribe, register
their nsmts thereon: IS soon as The lists
have been completed, that they, with the
funds raised, be forwarded to the brigsde
commander, and by him transmitted to An
~9Icutive committee to be appointed for the
purpose of receiving these funds, and
making arrangements for the purchase
and erection of a suitable monument at the
grave of that gsilsnt' soldier. As soon
as the monument has been erected, these
lists should be deposited at the grave.
l would further suggest as members of
the executive committee: Brevet Meior
General NJ. ID. Leggett R-igadfer General
William d. Woods, and Brevet Brigsdier
General 4. HickenloOper, citizens of Nc
