President JOhnson,s Plan for the Re.
storaii0n of Geergia-Native Cover.
nOrs for the Returning States. If
Possible.

From the Augusta, Ga, Chronicle and Sentiuel
We were pleased to meet Monday afternoon,
with our old friend, J. L. Dunning, ESQ.,, of
Atlanta. Dir. Dunning has been for years a
leading man of all business enterprises in the
Gate City" and throughout this war was
distinguished for his steadfast loyalty to the
United States Government. He has Just re-
turned from the North, and when, bat few
days since in Washington, he, together with
A. N. Wilson and William Markham, ESQ, also
citizens of Atlanta had an interview with the
President touching the condition of affairs in
Georgia. Mr.. ID. has authorized us to mention
some facts in connection with that interview
that are of much interest to the people of the
State. President johnson expressed himself
very kindly toward the masses of our people,
who he believed had never been at heart enc
mics of the Government but that they haa
been overreached by the cunning of artful and
INSCRIPTIONS leaders. The chief obstacle, he
thought, TO the restoration of good feeling
would be in the prompt recognition of the fact
That fact cordially admitted, the remaining
difficulties might be easily removed. He was
not disposed to continue the military govern.
mentin Georgia beyond the period when the
civil administration might be safely resumed.
At present he considered the civil Offices of the
State, of every grade, as vacant, and all the
actions and doings of their occupants, from the
void. The President thought if the people Of
Georgia really desired loyal civil government
organized in Georgia, there would be some
spontaneous movement in their primary as
semblies. Mr.. d. also says that President
johnson would prefer appointing a military
governor from the State, ii suitable one can
be found. Otherwise he shall be compelled to
select from some other State. Mr.. Dunning
informs Us, that in his judgment, very much
depends on the action Of the people themselves
IN regard to the reconstruction of their State
government Men who were prominent in the
late rebellion will not be allowed to assume
control of the matter Of reorganization.
Mr. Dunning gave Us much more valuable
information in regard to public sentiment at
the North. We were especially gratified to
expressed for Mr.. Stephens. He was regarded
as statesman, loyal in feeling, whose only er-
ror consisted in suffering his conduc: to be too
much swayed by popular opinion.

The venerable and beloved Ex-Governor ar
rived here last Tuesday morning from New
York. via Hilton Head, and had grand recep.
ton. As soon as it became known that he was
on board the steamer the crowd on the wharf
collected around the gangway to greet him on
his appearance. As soon as the Governor
stepped out he was received with the most en-.
thusiastic cheering, and great rush was made
to meet him. Everybody wanted to shake
hands with the good old man. After quite q
severe ordeal of hand shaking, the crowd pro-
cured a carriage and escorted the Governor to
his residence in Aiken square. Subsequently
he called upon Gen. Quincy, at his headquar-
tiers, to report to him in accordance with the
terms of his parole, namely, "once o month
to the commander of the post" The General
and Governor had pleasant interview, and
the visit was duly recorded by the former.
During the day the governor was visited by
his numerous friends with their congratula-
tons on his safe return. He gave q glowing
account of the kindness extended to him every.
where while OF the North. In Washington,
dent, he was received by all his old friends and
many others with the greatest cordially and
friendship. At first, owing to the delicate po-
sition in which he was placed, he was Obliged
to decline the numerous invitations to meet at
social gatherings and dinner parties. Upon his
release, however, he received an invitation and
dined with the Prussian minister, and after
wards accepted the Inequalities of his friends.
Numerous letters from all parts of the country
were received by the governor, rendering him
any amount of money or assistance he might
need. The same kindness was shown him in
New York.
He also speaks in the highest terms of Pres
ident johnson, and believes he will make the
best President we could have had for the pres
ent condition OF the country. In fact, he says
he will be the President equal to the occasion,
which demands the most consummate talent
and abilities. The governor regards the Presi-
deHt as far superior to any member of his cab.

in restoring peace and order in the Southern

an interview with the President in regard to
the extension of the rights of suffrage to the
freedmen of the South, He told Mr.. johnson
that large majority of the loyal people of the
country were in favor of clothing the negro
race with the elective franchise, and that in
giving 1t to them his action would be sustained
not only by New York, but by all the loyal
States.

Riot at Greenwich, Conn.
from the y. Y. Times

4 returned soldier was killed at Greenwich,
Conn, on Saturday night, while heading a
riotous crowd Of young fellows who had under
taken to inhjct summary punishment upon a
negro who was living near that town. His
offence, ashley deemed it, was in having white
wife, and Irish girl, who voluntarily married
him, and with whom he had lived for a con-
siderable period. This was thought by the
assailants to be worthy OF mob justice, and,
after fortifying with the requisite liquor, they
undertook to drag forth the part colored
partners. But little accident interfered; a
wide-awake old negro woman, confronted the
mob at the door and advised them to desist at
the same time firing over their heads. They
were about fifteen to one, and, after a little
scare, they concluded TO go on with the job
So they threw stones at the house, and made
various attempts to get 10. The old black
woman at last fred directly into the crowd
shooting the ringleader through the brain He
died Immediately, and bis companions retired,
giyink up the job asa bad speculation. The
negroes were taken into custody without resis-
lance, and all parties were examined by the
Coroner Jury. The case was plain, it would
seem; the jury found verdict Of Unsuitable
homicide and ordered the discharge Of the
prisoners.
