Major Gee.

The formal announcement of the ac-
quittal of Major Gee, of .he charges
preferred against him for cruelty to
prisoners while in command Of the
late Salisbury prison, has been made.
The Military Commission took occa-
sion in their findings to refer to the
old subject of cruelty to Federal pris-
oners, and connecting Herewith strong
centure of the Confederate govern
ment. 1t seems to us that truth and
decency demand that officers of the
government should cease giving char
acter to statements that have tn, ten
dency to do injustice to the people Of
this section by such eS ports assertions
and accusations. The Court-martial
will attempt in vain to peryert histo-
Try in regard to this matter. Ihe peo-
rle of the whole civilized world know
full we'll that the Federal government
was solely irresponsible for the refusal
to exchange prisoners during the time
these censures refer to, and, and no
better reason has ever been assigned
than desire that the large number
of prisoners in orr hands should re-
main to eat of our scanty supply of
provisions, hoping thereby to starve
us into submission.
Nor can this Commission, nor the
execution of,the unfortunate Wirz by
another, refute the official figures that
Out of the 200, 900 Confederate pris-
oners North, 26, ,436 died, while of the
260, 900 Federal South, only 22,576
died. The horrors of Andersonville

Beechers pulpit during his vacation has
been preaching against him ever since his

From the Anglo american Times, May 24tA !
Emigration to Brazil Discourasing Let.
ter from Prof. AgaSSiz.
AT SEA, 9th March, 1866,
Orr THE ISLAND OF GAIvoTAs.

My DEAR FRIENp.--At last I find n mo.
ment TO answer your inquiries regarding
foreign emigration to Brazil. Before enter.
ing upon such details as I deem necessary
for the clear explanation Of my views an the
subject, allow me to make some reflections
upen emigration in general and point ont
certain distinctions, essential. as 1t seems
to me, to just appreciation of the ques-
tion. In this day emigration Is not what it
was twenty years ago. Then the emigrant
was generally a political refugee. flying,
him and his, from more or less oppressive
civil persecution. What he sought was a
safe asylum and protection. His country
was still the land where he was born. To-
day, emigration is more voluntary and more
deliberate. The emigrant generally leaves
his home in order to ameliorate his lot and
te associate himself with the destinies of u
new world What he seeks is o new eoun-
try Offering him advantages superior to
these he has hitherto known. To look upon
the emigrant as morcenary is generally to
do him m injustice. 1t is because in the
United States the value ofthe individual
man is fully recognized, the tide OF omigra-
Ntion has poured toward her shores, With
this order Of thiHgs, q country which estab-
fishes distinctions unfavorable to tho new
conner may hope in vain toattract numer.
GUS emigration; in my. judgment Brazil
would deceive herself as to the fututeif she
indulges the hope Of speedy progress in an
active and, intelligent emigration, without
having previously abolished restrictions
which weigfheavily upon the stranger wbo
comesto establish himself upon her soil,
Let no one deluds himsolfin this respect
that which the emierant seeks is that which

would add further that have observed
in Brazil ceytain administrative oastoms,
principally touching the acquisition Of real
estate and the Intervention of authority ID

are fundamentally modified must remain ar

mount to his complete exclusion. The
immigrant ought to be able to take posses
sion Of the ground between day and TO-
morrow, for he rarely has the means of
waiting. True political wisdom should
rather stimulate him to establish himself
upon any territory not yet occupied, guar
anteeing to him right to any improve
meuts he may make even upon soil which
does not yet belong TO him. Another great
difficulty arises from the arbitrary manner
in which subordinate n officers interfere
in the affairs of individuals. 1 do not
know how far the Brazilian, born in the
country, feels the necessity of the support
and counsels direct or indirect, of the pub
lie administration in his pscvate affairs
hut DO know positively that in our days
the emigrant fears nothing so much as all
which may be considered tutelage; still
more when this tutelagc takes occasionally
the form of petty tyranny. He generally
leaves his own country to escape from this
very thing, and will certainly not choose as
the land of his adoption one where it would
pursue him even into his private transac.
tions. The opening of tho Amazon, will no
doubt bring to the borders a number Of
industrious and enterprising men, but
great emigration. suoh as rapidly augments
q population, will never gather there as
longas the order Of things exists which
have observed in the Provinces of Para and
Amazonas. And yet have pleasure in
repeating that, whatever may be said to tile
contrary even in Brazil, know no country,
in the world richer, more attractive, more
fertile, more salubrious, more fit to be the
focus Of q numerous population, than the
magnificent valley Of The Amazon.

The Cotton Tax.

We called the attention Of our readers
few weeks ago to the operation of this
tax; and upon the onerous system de.
viSed for carrying 1.-The law into effect
Not bale Of cotton can be moved from
the plantation where it is grown until it
is weighed and marked, and bonds gver
for the due payment of the tax. This
order, we learn 10 our regret, has
already gone into Affect. The Govern.
ment not having made the necessary
arrangements as yet-not having ap-
pointed its officers, letc., the law is IN
operation, but thete are no officers to
carry out its provisions, and dire are the
consequences of this anomalous state of
things. 3
Fhey are already felt in cotton and
bank circles here. Our factors are
under acceptance for planters to a large
aggregate amount, j. e., money loaned
to enable the planters to raise this crop
Much of this paper is falling duo in
September and October 1t is quite out
Of the question to HOPE for any extensive
compliance. with therequirements of the
act within that tlG,e, and as conse.
quence the cotton, which was expected
to furnish the means for meeting this
paper, is virtually Hooked up on the
plantation where it has been grown.
Of course, our small bank capital is
as good as gone for present uses. No
one need expect a discount on any terms,
for the reason that the banks can have
no money until cotton arrives freely.
This is II serious matter. 1t Is not the
well to.do people who will suffer-. Many

ment if those forwhom he works are cut
of from their sources ofmoney supply.
We are Informed ffas Mr.. Sawyer is
fully alive,tosths OK arss,rs Sonl that,if
the matter were underhis control, some
measure Of relief would be devised en-.
tirely in harmony, with the true inter-
ests Of the Government. But Mr.. Saw.
yer can do nothing effectual by himself.
1t is proper matter for the consideration
ofthe Chamber of Commerce; for il is a
question of commercial Importance,
alecting, as it does New York, and, IN
fact, the exchange of the whole country.
We ask that ali classes OF our country
should realiz" this most embarrassing
situation of affairs, and that steps be at
once taken looking to some effectual
remedy for the evil that is upon us.
Cotton is gold, and the more of it that
goes abroad the more of coin will flow
lato our public land into our private)
treasury.
But we need say no more. We be-.
Geve all our readers understand the sub.
ject, and will at once comprehend its
Importance. = Charleston News.

characterize the indignity and insult that
were offered to the President Of the United
States at Indianapolis. 1t was not only dis
gracnful TO the persons who proved them
selves 80 lost TO respect and decency, but it
was disgraceful to tho city which permitted
the outrage, and to the political party to
which the Indianapolis mob belong. It is
lamentabe indeed if our country has ap-
preached 80 near to the point of anarchy
tnat its chief magstrate--the successor OF
Washington, Jackson, Lincoln and the rest
cannot pass peaceably through it. No
wondoN that, when passion. and political
hatred run so high, the few remaining old
statesmen of the Jacksoaian era should
come forth from political retiraoy to use
their efforts in s,euming the tide ofradical-
ism. 1t is not a long step from such scenes
as were enacted at indianapolis to the scene
so eloquently portrayed by Webster, in
which was depicted "a land rent with OWL
