for IFS ticket on the ground that they sup

Sestoring the Jurisdiction of the civil courts
in South Carolina, in all cases except such

absence Of the military, will in all cases be
reported, and the custody Of the person or

One of the engrsvers of the original dies
or bed pieces zone outside the Treasury,
referred to by the Herald's Special this
morning, and from which the officials sp-
pear convinced that the counterfeit 500
COMPOUND Interest Notes are printed,
predicts that the whole series will be coun-
terfeited. he says the statement put forth
leaves it to be inferred that these dies are
yet in the hands of the engrsvers, which
ia not the fact. When the settlement was
had, the plates were very uDjustly de.
manded from the engravers, and they were
given up under protest, the engravers say
ing that after being placed in the Note
Printing Department there would be risk
of their being improperly used. The
sequel shows that they have attempted to
fix their use upon those who formerly held
the plates. This the eDgrsver says is
slAnderous.

Gov. Perrr,s nessare.

NEW YORK, September 10.
The steamer Quaker City has arrived
from Charleston. The Courier of the 18th
contains Governor PerTy's message to the
State Convention. He acknowledges the
death Of slavery and counsels wise, Just
and humane tfestment of the freedmen,
by which they may become as strongly at
tsched TO the whites Is whilst they we're
slaves.
The legislature will be required to regu.
late the relative duties of employer and
employee. The Governor suggests changes
in the State Constitution, making it more
popular and republican in form It is the
reproAch of South Carolina that It is less so
than any other State in the Union. He is
against extending suffrsge to freed
men in their present ignorant and
degraded cond ton, as it is 1o.hing lefs
than folly and madness. He contends
this is the white mans government, and the
white mans enly; that the Supreme O3urt
has dacided that negroes are not citizens.
and that each State hiss the unquestionsble
right to decide for herself who snail vote,
aud hs suggests the election OF a Governor,
mem bers Of Congress and the Legislature,
and Presidential electors directly by the
people, and that the Legislature should be
elected and convened in sessoL to order an
election for Congressman before the first
Monday in December.
The future, he says, will be bright and
glorious. As long rs civilization continues
this great republic will flourish and in
crease 10 numbers, wealth and grandeur.
In less than ten years we shall realize in
the loss of slavery blessing in disguise to
ourselves and our children. He notified
the Convention of the re establishment of
civil law, and courts, and the withdrawal
of the negro troops from the interior to
tarrifoD the coast. The presence of the
white troops will be necessary for some
time to enforce the relative duties of the
freedmen and their EMPLOYERS.
