invited to address The Young Mems Deu-

which we extract the following in relation
to Genera, Sherman:
"Itis. indeed already to be lamcnted that
although General Sherman may not have
had the authority--anl he claimed none for
himself, referring all to the Executive--his
plan Of Pacifcation and Reunion was not
promptly confirmed by the President. 1t
was concise. comprehensive, complete; pro-
wing him not less wise and great in the sci
ence Of ytate>manship, than grand and tri,
umphant in the arts of war. And it would
have made peace, immediate and sin:ere
peace from the f11toauc to he Rio
Gmu9e." This was his proud congratula-
tory boast to his army at the end Of the
great struggle. and not Of any victory in the
fold Defeating the armed military hosts
of the Confrderacy, his aim, at the close.

full communion in the affairs Of the general
government, we concur in the wisdom Of the
postponement Of the difficult question Of South
en negro suffrage to more convenient season.
The questions Of bread, of labor and compen-
sation call more urgently for action In the
South just now than any other questions; and
to secure harmony, system and security between
labor and compensation organized and recog-
nized State governments are necessary. We
think 1t probable, too that If in other respects
the submissive Southern States shall present
themselves at Washington In December
in satisfactory shape they may be sue
cessfal in getting into Congress with
out the concession of negro suffrage. We
think so because OF the popularity through all
the North of President Johnson's generous and
cOnciliatory Southern policy.
But while the postponement Of the question
Of the negro's political rights may be carried
through Congress by the President on the
ground Of more urgent considerations, we ap-
prehend that the Withholding of all civil rights
from the emancipated blacks will meet with an
obstruction in the President himself What
does Alabama, for instance, propose to do with
her liberated blacks, constituting, as they do,
more than half her present population, if they
are to be denied the privilege Of "testifying in
courts Of justice in all difficulties arising be-
tween negroes themselves, or between whites
and negroes?" We know that, for the present,
the freedmen's bureaus or the nearest federal
military commander or provost marshal relieves
the civil courts of the South of all judicial trials
in which negroes are concerned, and in which
negro testimony is regarded as admissible and
proper by the general government; but this
relief is given doubtless under the impression
that it will serve to guide the States concerned
in their true policy.
We would suggest to the Provisional Cover
nor Of Alabama, for the information of his own
State and of every other State similarly inter-
ested in this subject, the expediency and pro-
priety of soliciting the special advice Of Presi-
dent johnson. We have no doubt that this
proceeding on the part Of Governor Parsons
will save him, his State and all concerned a
world of trouble on this important matter Of
the negroes civil rights under the new law Of
universal liberty.

Alabama and South Carolina-Theiz
Work Of Reconstruction-The Negro
Diniculty. ~

Alabama and south Carolina-Their
Work Of Reconstruesion-The Negro
Diniculty.
The South Carolina reconstruction State Con-
vention adjourned sine die on the 2Sth ult,
after q harmonious session of fifteen days.
They repealed the ordinance Of secession Of
1860, they declared slavery abolished and in
terdicted, they equnlized representation and
taxation, they took the election Of Governor
and Presidential electors from the Legislature
and turned it over to the people, where the
right belongs, and they directed q commission
to submit code to the Legislature (Which Is to
be elected on the 18th and is to meet in extra
session on the 18th Of October) for the protec-
ton of the colorcd population. This Is good
work for South Carolina; and there Is every
reason to believe, from the "happy accord,
existing between President johnson and Gov
ernor Perry, and between the Governor and
the people Of the State, that the Legislature
will make up code in relation to the blacks
which will run the gauntlet Of the new
Congress.
The Alabama Convention, having finished
the work deemed necessary at its hands, adj
journed sine die on the 30th ult, having passed
an ordinance declaring secession null and
void, and all the debts Of the rebellion, and
forbidding the Legislature to recognize or pay
those debts or any part thereof; and having,
In the most positive terms, recognized the abo-
lition OF slavery and interdicted is restoration.
But Il is also reported that on the day before
Its final adjournment this convention, by o
vote Of SO to Is, passed an ordinance (which
practically abolshes the right Of admission Of
negro testimony in courts Of justice in all diff
ficulties arising between negroes themselves
or between whites and negroes" and this ex-
clusion, 1t appears, sis to continue until the
adjournment Of the next Legislature" to which
body is given the privilege Of perfecting the
"organic law Of Alabama"
Thus, in South Carolina and in Alabama, the
difficult business Of a new code in reference to
the blacks has been passed over to the Legs-
lature. The same course was pursued, II we
are not mistaken, in the late Mississippi Con-
vention, and even in the Tennessee reorganiz-
ing convention, under the auspices Of President
Lincoln's Provisional Governor, Andy John
son. So far, in not q single instance has any
step been taken In any Of these recent recon
structing conventions towards the concession
Of negro suffrage. They have all followed the
examples Of Louisiana and Tennessee, which
were approved by President Lincoln. Since the
complete collapse Of the rebellion, however
the necessity Of some concessions Of civil and
political rights TO the four millions Of emanci
pated Southern blacks is presented in holder
relief; and II becomes the duty Of the respon.
sible Southern whites TO look into this important
business under the light Of things a. they are
and not Of things as they were.

RETURN OF THE FOREIGN CAPrrALrsTs.-Sr
Morton Peto and party have returned to this city
after their rapid but extended tour through the
West. In every prominent place on their route
they were entertained by the public authori-
ties Boards Of Trade and prominent citizens
No party of tourists has ever before visited our
country with more praiseworthy motives, nor
has any other similar party been more cor
daily welcomed. The result of their observa-
tons, we are glad to hear, is favorable to a
still more liberal employment of foreign CAPT
tai in our public improvements than that
hitherto bestowed.
Among the gratifying results Of their
visit will be the laying of double track
on the Erie Railroad from this city to
the junction with the Atlantic and Great
Western road at Salamanca; the shortening Of
the distance on the Erie road about seventy
miles; the building OF the railroad bridge
across the Niagara, near Buffalo, structure
that will cost some five millions Of dollars-and
the extension Of the branches Of the Atlantic
and Great Western road from all the principal
points where the main track is laid. These en-
terprises will involve the expenditure Of per-
haps hundred millions Of dollars, without
taking into consideration the real design Of
these European capitalists, viz: the shortening
Of the route to the East Indies by grand rail-
way across the American continent The object
Of these foreign gentlemen in visiting our coun-
try and examining our system Of internal i'm
provements has not been more happily realized
in witnessing our physical resources than In OBJ

GERMAN EMIGRArIoN.-A wonderful stimulus
has been impaired to emigration from Ger
many since the close of the war. It appears
that the facilities for transporting to this'coun-
try the number of people who are attracted
hither by the prosperous future in store for the
United States is entirely inadequate to the de-
mand. We learn from our Berlin correspondents
that two new steamers are being built in Glas-
Cow for the Bremen .Lloyd's line to New York,
which will make seven large steam vessels on
this line. The Hamburg and New York Com
pany will in future run one Of their seven
steamers regularly each week. The COMPETE
ton between these direct German lines and the
Southampton steamers has resulted in oonsi-
derable reduction of fare on both lines. From
all the projects now in contemplation 1t would
appear that the tonnage of steam. vessels ply
ing between the United States and Europe will
soon amount to a million of TONS
The emigration of Germans will prove
great benefit to this country in the present
crisis. They are just the class of people TO
take hold Of the Southern plantations and Gull
tivate them to the highest point With this
kind of. labor in the Southern States, together
with the improvements in machinery, we should
not be surprised to see an increase In the
amount Of cotton raised Of fully one-third over
that produced by slave labor and hand work
in the field.
