Your dispatch has been received. The people
of Georgia should not hesitate one single
moment ii repudiating every single dollar OF
debt created for the purpose OF aiding the re-

lect taxes from a State and people that are
loyal and IN the Union to pay q debt that was
created to aid ID taking them out, and thereby
subverting the Constitution OF the United
States. ..sa9 a&9

Of the State of Georgia, when lett unlnt1u-
enced, will ever submit to the payment OF
debt which was the main cause OF bringing on
their past and present suffering the result OF
the rebellion q .a Irs a
Those who invested their capitalin the crea-
ton of this debt mast meet their fate and take
It as one Of the inevitable results OF the rebel
lion, though it may seem hard to them. 1t

abroad, that nodebt contracted tor the pur-
pose Of dissoIging the Union, can or ever will
be paid By taxes levied on thepeople for such
purpose. g SIS ANDREW JOHNSON,

The Continued Destruction Of
Property at the south.

The following from tho Louisville Journal
IL good sense and humanity, and we trust it
will be needed by the military authorities in
the South. 1t says:
"The war is not nominaIly and formally
closed. but as the big fighting is all over, we
are very sorry when we see accounts of the
destruction ofrailroads, provisions, and other
property in the South by Federal forces II
seems pity, very great pity, that this kind
ofwork should not stop at ence and altogether.
There is no longer any purpose of war tina.
it can accomplish 1t can innict additional
misery upon a people no louger in arms and
already afflicted almost beyond the power OF
human endurance.
ave should, possible, feed the inhabit-
ants of the iearlully desoated region, and
not destroy tho little apd very inadequate
means of subsistence left to them. Certainly
the time is at hand if it has not already come,
when all true men and women, wherever
their dwelling places may be, will mourn as
earnestly over the dee tuition OF the South as
they would over similar desttution in that
section if there had never been rebellion
Let the present be shaped with some little ref
erence to the near future"

sage for the President. On being askd as to
the nature of her message, she declined to
give it, but stated that it was from the AL
mighty, and that she must see the President
as she had come all the way from Illinois and
was q neighbor of the late Pres lent Lincoln
and was ordered by God sixteen years ago tc
deliver her message, but until yesterday She
had not been able to reach Washington. She
was requested to wait outside, which she did
and spent the interim in religious utterancei
and disjoined prayer. About four o'clocl
she quietly retired, not having succeeded il
