SOLDIERS FROM YORK.

Believing that this District and State
would gladly perpetuate in some form, the
names of those who fell in the late strug-
gle, We design opening in the ENQUIRER,
at an early day, roll for this purpose
To effect this object we ask the assistance
of all officers who commanded companies,
and others able to furnish any information
in furtherance of the design.
To all commanding officers of Companies
from this District, who are willing to as
sist US, we would say, send US the name of
the Company and Regiment to which it
belonged; also the roll of the Company,
including the names of all who were ever
members of it. Mark on the margin op.
posite the names of those killed, the battle
in which they fell; and the same of those
who died from wounds, received in action
-name also those that died of disease in
seryice-in each instance giving dates.-
The roll should ,as far..as practicable, be a
condensed history of the Company from its
organization to the close Of the war. We
will either publish the rolls in full, or such
facts from them as will be,important to per-
pctuate.
We earnestly ask the assistance of the
officers of this District in this work. Its
objects are important, and nearly every
family treasures the memory of some name
that should live in the future. The roll
will be historic record Of the soldiers from
this District, and as matter of reference
alone, will be invaluable Give US your
help.

"A correspondent writing from Arte-

Gen. Stephen D. Lee. The writer says
"Ex.Lieut. Gen. Stephen D. Lee has leas,
ed a large plantation. He has employed
more than fifty freedmen, and is of the opin.
ion that cotton. growing for the next four or
five years will be most lucrative. Speaking
of Mexican emigration, not long since, he
knew the MEXICAN soil to be the most fer
tile in the world, and the climate the most
salubrious, but from history he had learned
sufficiently the character of the people to
convince him that revolutions were as nat
ural and inevitable in Mexico: as eruptions
in Etna or Vesuvius. He encourages all
lovers of peace to remain at home, and by
honestly adhering to thesupport of President
johnson, by strict conformance to all laws
and proclamations, endeavor to regain the
political rights and privileges lost by the
rebellion and restore the prosperity of the
South as speedily as possible. Gen. Lee
was ever regarded as gentleman of fine
attainments, and the high opinion entertain
ed of him hitherto, has rather been enchanc.
ed since his settlement in our midst.

Correspondence Of the Charleston Courier
From Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 5, 1S66.-As if
we had not yet domestic trouble enough to
occupy our attention, many public men, in
and out of Congress, desire to bring this
country into difficulty with England and
France, by promoting the Fenian move
ment, and by fllibustering in Mexico: Fl.
nancial fllibustering has been commenced
by the issue of Irish and Mexican loan Ger.
tifcates in our money markets. But now
the Government is to be called upon to en-.
dorse the credit of the Mexican bonds, as
issued under the pretended sanction Of the
fugitive chief of the Liberty party in Mexi.
co.
The Fenians will also, it is believed, en-.
deavor to implicate this Government, di.
rectly or indirectly, in some of their move.
ments. But we have reason to believe that
President Johnson will pursue so prudent
and magnanimous a course in regard to
these matters that the country will escape
from the disgrace and danger of violation
of our neutrality.
The Committee on Reconstruction had
some difficulty in agreeing upon course of
action in reference to the admission of Ten
nessee as State into the Union. But the
majority made their report to day, with a
joint resolution providing for the admission
Of Tennessee as one of the United States
on an equal footing with the original States,
upon certain conditions, which must be ac-
cepted and ratified by the people of Ten

COURT.

The Court of Common Pleas and Gener-
al Sessions for this District, began the sit.
tings of its Spring Term here on Monday,
His Honor, Judge THos. J. GLOVER, pre-
siding. The long period elapsing since the
holding of any court, had caused the accu'
mutation of q considerable amount of bust.
ness on the Sessions Docket Several Of
these cases growing out of disturbances a.
rising last Spring, while the country was in
a disturbed state incidental to the sudden
transition from state of war to peace, were
thrown out by the Grand Jury. Several
matters of graver Importance on this docket
will come up for trial this week.
An important argument upon the con-
struction of the Act, known as the Stay
Law, as applying to the form of taking bail
in certain cases arising under it, was made
on Tuesday. His Honor defers decision
in the matter until he can more carefully
consider the points made by the opposing
counsel.
The Court will probably adjourn to NOR

mony, so far as we have examined it, coming
from such sources agree upon the point that
their services cannot be dispensed with
"tor .fve gears to comse!" Wonderful
foresight ! Their pay has no doubt been
accurately calculated for that period, and
all the chances of promotion fully weighed
for the five years to come. We insinuate
no special discredit to these persons by such
statements, but do object to such interested
testimony as the criterion by which We are
to be judged. The Southern people are less
in unison with the army than with any other
representative of the Government. 1t holds
too close a connection with the wasted and
pillaged homesteads of the country-is too
emblematic of oppression as the governing
power, to even bring it into close sympa.
thy with the Southern people. However
profound and sincere may be their profes.
sions of loyalty, and however much so in
fact, the gulf between the army and the
people is too wide for the former ever to
take that favorable view of it.
TIE President urges his policy upon the
country upon every favorable occasion. The
numerous delegations representing all class
es and shades of politics, bearing resolu-
tions of support and congrtulation, afford
ample opportunity for expounding his in
depreciation of the Government and its
policy. His course is firm and decided be-
yond question, but his triumph or failure
are questions for the future to decide. Upon
that decision rests our only hope for civil
liberty.
The action of Congress is halting. 1t
has matured little if any legislation thus
far, although the usual time of a session
has already been expended in deliberation.
The Bill providing for the admission of
Tennessee on certain conditions will proba-
bly, be adopted. Will Tennessee accept the
conditions?

THE "SITUATION."

The Committee on Reconstruction, have
reported numerous amendments to the
Constitution during their long sitting; and
although intensely radical in their spirit
strange to say none have yet been adopted
The last amendment reported-that to pro-
vide for representation in the lately rebel
lious States, requiring all classes to be
admitted to the ballot box-was brought ul
in the Senate last week, and after much
$Sangling, and an evident want of concert
among the members, was defeated by a vote
of 81 against 10. An amendment in the
way of joint resolution was then offered
providing that where the right of suffrage
was refused to any class of citizens in any
State on account of caste or color, such
class should not be included in the basis ot
representation. This was passed in the
Senate by bare majority. These ballots
are regarded as highly significant. They
are construed by the Sanguine in Washing.
ton, as another evidence of the breaking ur
of the intensely radical element that has
controlled Congress during its session.
There is some plausibiity in the hope.
The immense power given by Congress
into the hands of this Reconstruction Com.
mittee, cause its edicts to be regarded with
an unusually large share of interest. Re.
Gently it has been engaged in taking testi.
mony from outsiders, upon the condition Of
affairs in the South. Army officers whose
commissions are continued in existence by
the disrupted state Of the country, and whose
interest it is to present plausible reasons for
retaining them in the service of the Gov.
ernment, have been peculiarly happy in Sc.
curing their object One testifes that q
grand Conspiracy for tie oucrthrooo Of the
Government still ccistS at the South, and
only awaits some favorable opportunity for
developments. Another believes that Texas
ought to have an army pass over it, like
SHERWAN's through South Carolina, be.
foreit will become loyal. All of the testi.
