A correspondent of The Rochester Democrat
has bad an interview with Ex-Governor Akin
of South Carolina, and writes the following:
There have beer four dreadful years" he
went on to say. "but told the rebels from the
beginning what the end would be. have been
disappointed in only one respect; told them
would give them two years to be conquered. and
it has taken four. They have fought desper
ately; every boy partook of the fanaticism, ann
went into the fight and the women cheered them
on, and gave their jewels and treasures TO the
cause You OF the north know nothing OF the
war in this respect Every family in the south is
bereaved, aud told them it would be so !"
He said. "No have never cast my lot with
them. told them they were wrong from the
first gayea toast for the union at nullifca-
ton supper in 1880. aud offended all my young
associates, and since the rebellion commenced
have not been to Richmond or Montgomery and
have declined Office from MIR Davis for myself
and friends. When Mr.. Davis was my guest re

his respect for human nature.
The governor said the war was substantially
over when Grant took Richmond; all the south
agreed to that. No organized guerrilla warfare
will be carried on. The people of the south will
not permit IT, selfish instinct to defend them
selves will stimulate them to hunt down guerril-

presided at meeting in Charleston to express re

He said he had lost nearly all his property in the
war (some seven or eight million dolsrs) but il
he saved enough for his support he should not

The next wara Religion. one.

The agitators of society are looking about
eagerly for new causes for internal dissention
and civil strife. and evidently do not intend to

down and become strong again in the wealth
that peaceful pursuits insures. as they have be
come strong in the practice of war.
Il appears that the fanatics are now looking
forward to civil war. in which religion shall be
the question at issue This will not, OF course,
be OF sections, but general going
into every state. town. village. and even family
The signs of this war are more apparent now
than were those of the civil war ust closed, ten
years before IL commenced Some of the advo-
Gates are more bold ,hau others in their declara-
ratiops. On Wednesday the subject came up at
the anniversarv'ot the American and foreign
christian union in New York, when some emf
nent clergy men of the country participated Here
is an extract from the report OF the meeting:
Rev. Henry VI. Scudder. ID. D., followed with
an address Providence il now writing the his
tory of our country. We have buried slavery
under the grave OF Abraham Lincoln so deep
that it will never rise again. The vocation Of
this country il to give civil and religious LID
erty to all nations. Republicanism is now tri
umphant. Our republic still lives We are now
living athlete-stripped aud prepared for the
conflict, aud there no competition. The
speaker deprecated all idea Of war with Eogland,
although bred in the little island of Great Brit
ain. Moral ideas are superior to physical agen-
cies He considered that the next great bartle
must be fought with Romsnism. We must all
aid Mexico. Our government must give Maxi
milan notice to quit, and tell Napoleon that no
French rossters shall ever crow in the presence
OF the American eagle. We mus. fight the pa
pacy with political as we'll a. moral weapons.
and Offset the Hbernian vote With negro suffrage
We must bury the papacy deep down in the
grave with slavery.

At the monthly meeting Of the Buffalo Hisior
icAl Society. held on the 9th of May. instant
Hon. MIILaEp FrLLxoRK, president Of the soci-
ETY.. spoke OF the late national bereavement, and
added
Bot While express ms sense Of the great loss
which this country has sustained IN the death Of
President Lincoln at this particular juncture,
would not be understood implying a want Of
confidence in be successor. / can sympathize
with bin 10 the embarrassments with which be is
surrounded. and the difficulties which be has 20
encounter IN being thus suddenly called 10 the
helm OF state, amid the perilous storm Of Al Tn
Paraiieiled rebellion. IL appears 10 me thai the
storm has nearly spent iis fury, and the angry
waves are gradually subsidng. and CLEANS OF
Sunshine already Hume many a dark spot This
fact adds greatly 10 the labors and responsibilities
Of the government. Craftsmanship must now
take the place Of arms.
Bet yet have hope From all that know
OF President johnson. think be has talent and
integrity. and If be will hear and then follow the
dictates Of his own good sense and calm judg
ment. without prejudice passion, he will sue
coed.
The 6rst caution he has to observe Is TO steer
clear Of the factions that are trying 70 get posses
sion Of him for their own selfish purpose-to
carry out some favorite theory Of reconstruction,
or 70 crafty some feeling Of revenge.
/ am happy to SEQ that he receives all 20
litely. but keeps his own counsel and has the
prudence and good sense not to commit himself
in of hand speeches as 10 bis futtre policy, but
leaves himself at liberty. after due consideration.
TO take advantage OF circumstances as they
arise.
In my humble opinion, be who controls toe
destinies OF nation. especially Mt tirse Ike
this. should rever indicate his future policy
until il is fully matured 10 cabinet council. and
he il ready to put IL in operation: nor should he
promise Office until he is ready 10 confer it.
While. therefore, we Justly deplore the loss
of President Lincoln. let us never despair of the
republic. but rally around bis successor, regard
less Of past differences or party pvejudices, and
do all we can to sustain him. so long as he main
tains the constitution and laws OF our common
country. Let Us remember. amidst all our grieis
snd dsappointments, that there ia unerring
Providence that governs this world, and that no
one man is indispensable to a nations life; and
let US look hopefully for the rainbow OF peace
that will surely succeed the storm if we do our
own duty. hope The resolution will be
adopted

SUGGESTION FOR THE WAR DEPARTMENT
If the assassins of Mr. Lincoln and their accom-
plices are to be tried by military commission as
offenders against military law, will it not lead to
serious questions on the part OF foreign govern
ments when the extraditon of accomplices is de
manded If any accomplish has fled to England
he would PROFESSIONALLY be delivered up on de
msnd a murderer, but If he was demanded
as a military offender, would il not needlessly
complicate the matter? The suggestion may be
of no practical Importance. but when the whole
press unite with one voice in expressing an opin-
ion on the subject, the argument may have
weight.
