LETTER FROM PRESIDENT JOHN
SON

A rupture between the Provisional
Government of Mississippi and the U. S.
Military forces in that State occurred few
weeks ago. Gov, Sharkey, as Commander
in. Chief OF the militia of the State, issued
an order requiring the organization of
company Of militia in each county of the
State. By authority of The War Depart
ment, Gen Slocum annuled the order OF
Gov. Sharley, and prevented the organi-
cation Of the militia, The Governor APP
pealed 10 the President and received the
following letter in reply.
JACKSON, MISS, Sept. 8, 1865.
Gov. Sharkey publishes the following
dispatch from President johnson:
at is believed there can be organized in
each county force Of citizens Of militia, to
suppress disturbance, preserve order, and
enforce the civil authority of the State,
and of the United States, which would
enable the Federal Government TO reduce
the army, and withdraw TO a great extent
the Federal forces from the State, thereby
reducing the enormous expenses Of the
Government.
If there was any danger from the orgOni-
cation OF the citizens for the purpose indi-
Gated, the military are there to detect and
! suppress, on the first appearance of any
movement insurrectionary in its character
One great object is to induce the people to
come forward in defence Of the State and
the Federal Government. Gen. Washing
ton declared the people, or the militia, was
the right arm of the Constitution. As soon
as it is practicable, the original design o.
the Government will be resumed under the
principle of the great chart of freedom
handed down 10 the people by the Founder
of the Republic. The people must be trusted
WiM their Government, and, il trusted, my
opinion is they will act in good faith, ont
restore their former Constitutional relations
with all the States composing the Union.
The main object Of Maj. Gen. Car
Schurz's mission 10 the South was to aid, a.
far as practicable, in carrying out the polio,
adopted by the Government for restoring
the States to their former relations with tn
Federal Government. 1t is hoped tha
such aid has been given.
The proclamation authorizing the res
toration Of the State government require
the military power to aid the Provisions
in the performance of his duties as pre-
scribed in the proclamation, and in n
manner 10 interfere or throw impeachment
in the way of the contamination of tn
object of his appointment, at least withor
advising the Government of the inteude
: interference.

Winons' "cigar ship" will be launched
in few weeks from London yard. The
rivets that fasten her are counter sunk, so
that her outside is perfectly smooth. This
fact, her peculiar shape, and the immense
power expected 10 drive her, raise hopes
of an extraordinary rate of speed. Her
engines are three cylinder, to be driven al
high pressure, turning one steel shaft
which revolves through the whole length oI
the vessel, projecting from the fine points
at each end, where it carries screw.

FIGHT it Out on that Line.

A planter Of the parish of Iberville, La,
has addressed the following communication
to the Freedmen's Aid Association of New
Orleans
GENTLEMEN l am planter of twelve
years experience; this year | am working
twelve hands, six men and six women; my
laborers are 10 get one fourth Of the net pro-
ceeds Of the crops. They have a full I'M
Outstanding Of the interest in the said crops.
Our contract was made on the LIST of Feb
ruary last, and the result SO far is a COM
p!ete success. We have to-day 50 arpents
of cotton; % arpens of sugar-onnes; 70
arpents of corn-al in perfect condition.
don't mention the vegetable crops.
Under the old system ten arpents TO the
hand was considered fair result, and more
than three fourths of the plantations failed
TO come 10 that standard.
My laborers are all good people. behaving
well, having good common sense; they are
honest and true TO their family. Beside,
the crop in common, they have raised fol
their private account small crops Of corr
and vegetables; they have poultry, &c., Of
their own.
Not single difficulty has occurred among
them since they have agreed to work OIL
my farm.
Thus is the whole labor problem solved
Deal justly, give the freemen some Interest
in their work, and there will be no trouble
In this case fifty per cent. more of GROUND
is cultivated than the same number OF hands
cultivated under the old system, and The
probability is that the planter will make
that per cent. more.
