ABUSES OF FREEDMEN IN GEORGIA.
The New York Tribune publishes let
ter from Gen. Tillson, Commissioner of
the Freedmen's Bureau in Georgia, in
reference to the condition of things in
that State. 1t will be recollected that
Gen. 7. is an officer against whom Gems,
Steedman and Fullerton, in their report
of the workings of the Freedmen's Bu-
reau at the South, made no charges. He
had not been long enough there to as
certain the disposition of the planters
towards the freedmen, and was disposed
to take such view of matters as ac-
corded with the wishes of the President
and his tools. But more intimate &C.
quaintance has served to open his eyes
to the facts in the case, and he says the
freedmen are subjected to the most cruel
prosecutions, and that the civil author
tiles afford them no protection, even re-
fusing TO bring to justice the perpetra.
tors of the greatest outrages upon them.
He has been obliged to call in military
aid in the district over which he has
Jurisdiction, and establish martial law
for their protection, against which the
inhabitants protest in unmeasured terms;
but the facts ne presents clearly prove
the enormity of the crimes committed,
and fully justify his course in the prem

DIsGRACEFUL.-The Washington County
IN, " Chronicle says One of these dis
graceful acts which certain rustic rowdies
think SAVIOR so much of humor, but which
are really brutal outrages, was performed at
Hampton, on Monday evening of this week,
on the occasion of the return to their resi-
dence of highly respectable newly mar
ried couple, Certain lewd fellows of the
baser sort, undertook what we supposed was
an obsolete practice of 'horning them. They
gathered around the dwelling, making night
hideous with unearthly yells, obscene jests
and illusions, and vulgarity- on
tin pans, pals and kettles, and with firing
of pistols and guns. We don't see why war
rants are not issued against them fol such
disorderly conduct"

JoHNsoSs COMPLETELY IN TIE AssAssI-
NATION OF PRESIDENT LISooLN.-The
Lafayette (Ind, Courier Of a recent date
has long and able editorial recapltn-
lating evidence to the effect that the
assassination of Abraham Lincoln was
committed at the instigation and with
the completely of Andrew johnson. AZ
ter full resume of the whole case, re-
ferring TO the note from Booth that was
found on Johnsons table at the time of
the assassination, the Courier concludes
with the following summing mp Of the
whole:
The case against Andrew Johnson
stands thus. He has been advantaged
by foul murder for which there could
be no reasonable motive, without his
completely; he has taken to his conil-
dence the friends of the assassin, and
discarded those of the victim, although
under great obligations to the latter;
and Notwithstanding his repeated de-
clarations of animosity to the former;
in so doing he has violated a hundred
pledges, and broken scores of vows; by
the murder he was elevated to the Presi-
dental chair, and by the friends of the
murderer he can alone hope to be re-
elected to that proud position.
If he was not in consultation with the
assassin, it is proved that such consulta
ton was desired, and whether it took
place or not, his subsequent course is
such that had Booth drawn the pro-
gramme he could not have improved it,
with reference to the interests of the
late rebels. We have the authority of
Judge Kelley of Pennsylvania, for say
ing that before the election, Mr.. john
son, in conversation with certain gen
tlemen whose names he can give, de-
clared with emphasis, "If am elected
to the Vice Presidency, shall perpetu-
ate myself" and in the light OF this
declaration, the hidden springs Of my
policy" are revealed, and the evidence Of
dark conspiracy accumulates.

Evening Star has been finished, and the
report sent to Washington. 1t is to the
effect that the vessel and engines were
in good order and of sufficient strength,
and that the cause of the loss was the
want of a crew. There were but six
sailors, who were able to manage the
steamer in the storm. The report is
positive in the statement that with a

CIVIL RIGHTS IN MARYLAND.-The
example of the President in affirming
the unconstitutionality of the Civil
Rights Bill, says the Tribune, has been
two generally followed by Southern
courts. Judge Magruder Of the Circuit
Court at Annapolis has recently refused
to admit negro testimony, and it is
thought that this precedent will be
adopted by the Courts generally. In
contrast to this illegal ruling Of Judge
Magruder is the conviction of white
man of manslaughter, solely upon negro
testimony in Mississippi. The appren-
ticeship system in Maryland, appears to
De but new form of slavery. Alto

1t is, however, impossible, and you who

preciate my regrets at having to give up
that promised pleasure. You know that
the organization Of the LIST brigade of
Vermont volunteers was due to my eX
ertiOns and my faith in the reputation
they would win, If they could act in a

the greatest interest and pride in them

pleasant to me, to hear al nays from
every one who became acquainted with
their acts and valor, and sturdiness in
the field, that amonga million and half
Of armed men kept in the field by the
North the Vermont troops were second

hope Vermont may never again be
called on to furnish volunteer soldier
to defend the United States but if the
United States should ever again need
volunteers, in order to ensure success
she must have Il good sprinkling from

Prices TumblIng.

From every quarter we have advices
of declining markets, for almost ev-
cry article Of produce, All srecula-
tive feeling is, for the time, suspend
ed, and operators act as if the mark
cts were believed to be bottomIess.
In New York, yesterday, beef cattle
sold at about what they cost in Ken
lucky, and hogs brought less than
they were bought for in Chicago or
Cincinnati. Mess pork, which two
weeks ago sold as high az 1876, is down
to $24 IS; lard has fallen from &c. to
14c. for prime; flour, wheat, corn, rye,
oats, &c, have been falling steadily,
though still comparatively high. Dry
goods are also declining as are also
groceries; and finally, fancy Railroad
stocks, which were going up rapidly a
few DAYS ago, are tumbling.
This news from New York has its
effect, Of course, throughout the West,
and the great leyeling process is every
where experienced.
Our dispatches from Lexington, the
great stock market for Central Ken
lucky, report decline in sheep yes
terday from Sc. to 4lc.; hogs, from Sc.
to 5G16c.; cattle, from 7GDSc. to 5C96c. /;
horses 20 per cent, and mules SO per
head. e" - ~
There is bottom to the markets,
of course, and the indications arc
that it will soon be reached. The
practice of boarding produce, which
was rendered practicable by the
abundance and cheapness Of money,
rendered this break in the markets in
evitable. TIE such point had values
been carried that exports were not
only checked, but we were actually
re-importing leading articles of pro-
duce from England. Now the tables
are turned, and our foreign exports
are increasing, .sa.s.a..os s.rs.
But money being plenty, the proba-
bility is that violent reaction will
take place, and capitalists will again
attempt to monopolize stocks and
force prices up, compelling consumers
and producers to unite in paying the
fiddler. 1t will not be so easy to do
this, however, as il was a year ago.
Within the last six months boarding
produce has not paid. Within the
last sixty days it has certainly proved
a disastrous business.
And now let consumers see that
they get the advantage of the decline.
Let them bear in mind when they go
to their butcher, their baker, or their
grocer, that there has been a large
and pretty general decline in prices
recently; that hogs have fallen thirty
three per cent, beef in proportion,
and that -four is full dollar a barrel
lower than it was week ago GIN
