rhe President on Rebel War Debts.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 20.
The Raleigh papers of yesterday pub
lish telegram from the President to
Governor Holden, declaring that every
dollar Of the debt created to aid the
rebellion should be repudiated finally
and forever, and expressing the hope
that the people Of North Carolina
will wash their hands of every thing
that pSrtakes in the slightest degree of
the rebellion, so recently crushed by
the strong arm of the Government.

The Freedmen in Georgia and the
Carolinas.

New YoRK, October ia gentle
men just returned from an extended
tour through North and South Carolina,
and Georgia, says that large number
Of the planters in those States threaten
20 entirely dispense with the labor of
negroes after January l. After that
time, they say, they will have scarcely
enough to live on themselves, let alone
feeding and taking care of laborers un
til next crop. He also says, in the
three States not more than one-third of
the able-bOdied population is steadily
at work, another third is travelling about
from place to place, seeking to better
their condition, and the remaining third
live in idleness.

The Richmond Times tells US that
the burnt district" in that city is get
ting rapidly rebuilt
"There now seems to be scarcely lot
where workmen are not swarming like
bees, digging new cellars, cleaning
bricks, removing rubbish, laying founda-
tions, running up walls, doing the wood
work, and roofing, lathing, plastering
and completing the work of the m morc
advanced buildings, which, it is now
evident, will be larger than any which
were destroyed by fire. Iron, brown
stone, marble and granite will enter

TsE Firm WARD ELECTION We would not
impu'e any intention on the part OF the election
board 10 the Fifth ward to defeat the will of the
people by any unfair means, but fhe returns do
look little queer. There were two candidates
running for councilmsn-a Mr. Grosvenor and
our we'll known citizen Mr. Joseph Harris 1t
appears there were 2lo votes cast for mayor For
councilman the board returns l35 for Grosvenor
and only 40 for Harris. This NAL es in all only
lI5 votes. when Csven got 27s Take 1875 from
27s. and it leaves l43. If these votes had been
returned for Harris il would have elected him BY
majority We do not know whether Mr.. Harris
intends to contest the election as the Office would
interfere with his business. and his name was
used as candidate against his wishes. but fair
PLAY IS jewel, IS the old proverb says. We
well know that Mr. Grosvenor would not hold
the position unless it the wish of a clear ma
jorty of his Constituents: hence. TO remove all
doabts ia regard to the matter il has been sug
gested that both Mr. Harris aud Mr. Grosvenor
Weld every thing in reference TO the election OF
