gestIOus in reference to the tone ami con-
duct of our Southern journals. / have re-

Congress very good. 1t is very evident,
that the Radicals are losing the confidence
Of their constituents, and also their own
confidence in the success OF their dIabOllcal
undertakings; and they nov eagcrly scan
every line that is written, and listen atteu-
lively to every syllable spoken by the PEG

thing that can be C med into political capt.

ers, of Mobile, an ex rebel General, was
elected Mayor of that city, he was not
permitted to be installed until pardon

New Orleans. So also with Gen. Hum

friends of Mr.. Semmes could not ex-
pect an exception to be made in his
case. If he left the United States ser

probable that he will be pardoned, I'M

The Post Office Department has is
sued orders to discontinue the delivery
of the mails at an early day at all otlic, s
in South Carolina and perhaps in other
States, where there are no regularly ap-
pointed and commissioned postmssters
This order, the Governor of South Car
olina says, will subject the press and
the business community to very serious
embarrassment unless steps are taken
to secure the services at each Post OF
fee of such persons as can take the re-
quisite oath as prescribed 10y Congress ;
and he therefore recommends that
some person be selected at each office
who can take the oath and give the
bonds.

The Huntsville Advocate of the 10Th
says Col c. Cadle, Adjutant of Gen.
Swayne, has been in our city for seVe-
raj days, on tour of inspection
throughout the State. He represents
the crop prospects in South Alabama
as very unpromising, the rivers have
overlooked the low grounds and in the
csnebrake the wet weather has proved
very injurious to the cotton.

Recently correspondent of the n.
Y. Herald writing from Newbern, \.
c., foreshadowed the report of Gems.
Stcedman and Fullerton in regard to
the management of the Freedmen's
Bureau in the old North State. His
statements were very damaging; SO
much 90, that Gen. Howard immedi.
ately wrote ard published letter in
tended 20 ccuatcract them. Ia that
letter he said
al heyc rot vet the facts as 10 North Car
olina: bat you and your friends may rest
assured tuat every shadow # accusation /, +
comb C. ty in crIUC on the part of those OH
GERS there is utterly without foundation"
This letter was addressed to Rev.
Geo. Whipple. The above language is
very positive 1t asserts that every
shadow of accusation of completely in
crime on the part Of Bureaucrats in
North Carolina as utterly without
foundation. Gems. Steedman and Full.
lerton, in their report which followed
established the fact that Gen. Howard
spoke unadvisedly, or, if not unadvised-
ly, falsely-that Bureaucrats were guilty
of crimes. They named the men and
the offences committed by them. And
now it is claimed in extenuation of the
failure to punish the criminals, that
one of them, Fitz, was about to be tried,
and would have been tried and pun
ished if Gems. Steedman and Fullerton
had not appeared on the carpet SO soon
and commenced their investigations
Those who make this excuse must see
how seriously it affects the reputation
of Gen. Howard for truth and candor.
If every shadow of accusation against
hiss subordinates in North Carolina was
utterly without foundation, how
could Fitz be guilty and about to be
tried and punished?

Lieut.. Gen. Grant has received dis
patch from Maj. Gen. H. W. Halleck,
in Colorado, in which he says that there
is not a word of truth in the report
that Fort Goodwin has been captured
by the Appaches and the garrison mas
sacred. He denounces the report as
altogether sensational 1t will be rc-
membered that at the time the story
appeared it was discredited at Wash
ington on the authority of J. Ross
Brown, who had just arrived from Ari-
IONA.

Ii would seem from the following
extract from a Washington dispatch to
the Cincinnati Enquirer that Thad
Stevens has succeeded in imbuing the
Judicial Committee Of the House with
his stupidity
The proposed amendment TO the Cous,i-

duty Of i've ~ cent. on cotton, was CON
sidered this forenoon by tho House Judicial
Committee, and resulted in TIE vote

have been agreed 10 by the committee.

A Memphis contemporary, the Argus,
we believe, in an article on the subject
of cotton, says:
All the men who have taken up cotton
growing with the idea of speculation and
realizing grand results il single year, lex
cepS such bureau men as pay neither rent
nor wages, and feed out Of government
stOres,) will be necessarily disappointed.
If there are bureau men anywhere
engaged in the cultivation of cotton,
using lands free Of rent, working ne.
groes and paying no wages, and using
Government rations without paying for
them, they ought to be reported to the
War Department or the President The
following dispatch from Washington,
dated the 10th, which we find in the
Philadelphia Age, shows that the Pres
ident does not coincide with Gen. How
ard in the opinion that it is proper for
Bureaucrats to embark in the business
of cotton cultivation
To BE ARkEsTED.-The President has is
sued en- order directing the arrest Of all Of
ncers Of the Freedmen's Bureau interested
directly or indirectly, in the cultivation o
farms IN the Southern States.

Secretary Seward,
The Auburn IN. " Advertiser of

the 18th says:
"Secretary Seward arrived last evening
to celebrate the anniversary OF his birthday
with his family. He is IS years Of age to-
day. He is accompanied only by his Sec
rotary, messenger and servant. His health
appears to be well established, and he is as
confident Of an auspci0us future Tor our
country, whenever the people shall under
stand that the war is over, as be ever was.
He is receiving the congratulations OF his
neighbors, accompanied with their wishes
that he may be spared to enjoy many such
anniversaries at his old home"
The people of the United States have
great cause for graduation in the pre-
servation of the physical and mental
yigor of Mr.. Seward, the foremost states
man of the day. May he live to see
his country united, prosperous and hap
Ply, and to enjoy many years thereafter
the cheering reflections which spring
from the conviction of having contribu-
ted largely to that noble end.
