TIE co nspiffIoN OF yIneISiA

The testimony taken by the Recon-
struction Committee in relation to vir-
ginia is.published.
The first witness examined was Gen.
r. E. Lee, of the late Rebel army
Gen. Lee and the members Of the Vir-
ginia Legislature, who lately had an
interview with President Johnson, con-
cur in opinion that there Is no feeling
among the people looking to q renewal
of the contest with the Government.
Gen. Lee says, so far as his obserya-
ton extends, he believes the people of
Virginia are in favor of paying the
Rebel War Debt. a..
In addition to this, the Committee
took the testimony of Maj Gen. Terry,
commanding U. S. forces in Virginia,
Gen. Turner, commanding the post Of
Richmond, Col. Orlando Brown, AS
sistant. Commissioner Freedmen's Bu-
reau, stationed at Richmond-andh half
a dozen Virginia loyalists, including
Judge Underwood, John Minor Bolts,
Charles d. Gray. of Augusta County,
John F, Lewis, of Rockingham County,
and his brother, Charles F. Lewis
These gentlemen, who have been un-
compromising Union men all through
the war, concur in representing the
sentiment of the people of Virginia in
relation the Government as unimproved
and as rather having become embitter-
ed since Lees surrender. They say at
that time the people were humble, sick
Of war, longing for peace on any terms,
and ready to accept gratefully the par
don of the Government, and to submit
to any condition that might be made
while now they are arrogant, exacting
and intolerant. Most Of the witnesses
Of that class express the decided opin.
ion that the withdrawal of the Federal
troops and Freedmen's Bureau would bt
followed by an unrelenting prescription
of white Unionists. and the prescription
and remission to Slavery Of the coloret
re5ple. The change offeeling is yer.
generally ascribed by these witnesses
to the Presidents liberal policy. II
regard to the federal debt, the peopl
Of Virginia are represented as in favo
Of its Reputation, or at least of com
bining it with the Confederate debt.
In the language of the President
"Eleven States are not represented II
Congress. Why do Mt Congress rusl
the Representatives of these people il
at once!

"THE PRESIDENT's POLICY" /"

A cavalry officer now in Texas writes
to, a friend concerning the working of
the "Presidsnt's policy" as follows: ::
There is one thing, however, that is
working against the speedy return of quiet
ness. not only in this State, but throughout
tha entire South, and that is the reconstruc-
ton policy of President johnson. 1t is do.
ing more to unsettle this country than peo-
ple who are not practical observers of its
workings have any idea of. Before this
policy was made known, the people were
prepared to accept anything, They expect
ed to be treated as Rebels, their leaders to
