We shall publish in our next the testi
mony of Gen. Lee before the reconstruction
committee.
We shall also publish a portion of the
testimony of Mr. Botts in which he makes
the extraordinary revelation that Mr.. Lincoln
told him, in 1861, that he, Mr.. Lincoln
assured Mr. John B. Baldwin, of the Vir-
ginia Convention, that if he would go back
to Richmond and induce the Convention to
adjourn without passing the ordinance of
secession, he would take the responsibility of
,evacuating Fort Sumter Mr.. Baldwin never
communicated this assurance of Mr.. Lincoln
to the Convention. Mr.. Bolts swears posi-
lively that Mr.. Lincoln told him this, but
Mr.. Baldwin denies it. This is the same Mr..
Baldwin who stated a month or two since in
the Virginia Legislature, that he would like
to see Gen. Lee Governor of Virginia; and
he is the same Baldwin who, with others,
recently waited on the President as delega-
ton from Virginia.

The following letter was written by gen

climate Of Florida rather uncongenial to him
during the late rebellion, in consequence OF
which he left the state and was appointed by
President Lincoln Consul at Matamoras,
Mexico. The letter was addressed to Hon.
David s. Walker, Governor of Florida, and
was published in the Commonwealth, Quincy,

TALLAHASSEE, March 18th, 1866
To HIS E1ceuency:
Governor of Florida:
Sr:-Onmy recent return from being refugee
on account of the late wicked rebellion, 1 was
grieved to learn that DIR. John Gee, of Gladsden
county, was being tried for his cruelty to Federal
prisoners, while in command at the military
prison, Salisbury, n c. know nothing of the
facts, but know the man, have known him aceU
and long. He was Assistant Surgeon in Gen. LEIGH
Reads brigade, Florida war, in 1S4O and Al, and
beloved by all that shared his acquaintance. In
the fall of 1850, when abont to return from Cali
fornia, the cholera was raging fearfully at Sacra-
mento City. (Such distress + never knew Dr.
john Zee threw himself and his fortune into the
breach, for weeks not even undressing his person.

suffering poor, far away from home, no hopes of
reward except the approval of his own heart

own funds till he had not funds left to return

in detail of his kindness, gives me proof that he
possessed the noblest attributes of man. He is
high minded, truthful, and honorable. do not
believe he could be Influenced to dssimulate and
misrepresent, even to save his own life am
fully convinced of the barbarous treatment of
prisoners, but no man of my acquaintance, could
less believe capable of cruelty, than Dr. John
Gee, and must hope that yet it may be shown to
be not intended cruelty.
Governor, you know Ihave right to complain
of the abuses of the late rebellion, and verify be-
lieve many now released by my government,
should not have been. Yet, I can't feel that one
of the best men ever knew has turned demon.
You can, if you think my remarks worth any thing
to the cause of humanity, use them as you think
best. This token of my feeling is not known or
expected by his friends, for one who has so pub
licly been denounced as your humble servant.

The Connecticut Election.

This election, now close at hand, is excit-
ing much attention. Gen. Hawley is the
Republican or Union candidate for Governor,
and Mr. English is the Democratic can
didate.
We have seen several versions of CONVEX
sations between the President and leading
public men in relation to this election, and
these versions would appear to be contradic-
tory if not taken with reference to the known
views of the President. The Presidents po-
sition seems to be this: He is a member of
the Republican or Union party. He does
not belong to the Democratic party. But
he regards his policy for restoring the Union
as paramount to everything else. While he
does not wish to interfere in the elections,
and while he is not disposed to play the par
tizan, yet, when his opinion is asked he
frankly states that he desires the election of
those candidates who sustain his policy
What more or what less could he say? '.
The people of the North, having conquered
the South through the instrumentality of the
common government, are now engaged in
settling among themselves the terms on
which the conquered States shall be restored
to the Union. We trust that these terms,
when settled, will be in accordance with the
Constitution. This is all we ask On the
other hand, the people of the North have a
right to expect that the States will return to
the Union in good faith, through the instru-
mentality of Enthusiastically" loyal men,
This is reasonable on their part, and we can
not expect to be admitted until this expec-
tation is realized.

The Presidents Veto Message.

We publish to-day President Johnson's
veto of what is called the Civil Rights Bill
| We have never read more compact or
conclusive argument than this message pre-
sents. 1t shows that the bill in question is
not only in conflict with the Constitution,
the theory of the government, and the rights
of the States, but that, in its consequences,
it could not fail, if it should become law,
to operate disastrously to the very race it was
designed to protect.
We do not propose any extended COM
ment on this admirable document 1t is be-
fore our readers, and speaks for itself Let
it be carefully read, and then laid away and
preserved as another one of those mastery
expositions of the Constitution which have
proceeded from the President.
The annual message of President Johnson,
at the opening of the present Congress, was
received by the American people with almost
universal approval. No document, perhaps
of similar character, was ever more en-
phatically or cordially approved. The peo-
pie in all portions of the country felt that it
contained the true principles of the Constitu-
ton, and was the safest, if not the only
platform on which the Union could be re-
stored. In no important particular has the
President departed from the principles of
that message. Those principles will yet pre-
vail. The President has won for himself,
equally with Mr.. Webster, the proud title of
Defender Of the Constitution. We trust the
people everywhere will hold up his hands
and encourage him in his arduous task. The
great body of the Republican or Union
party of the North and West owe it to their
principles, and to the sacred cause of the
Union itself, to sustain him for if they should
separate from him. permit extreme views
to disorganize and divide their ranks, they
will fall before the recuperating forces of the
Democrats and the control of public affairs
may thus pass into the hands of those who
have not been foremost in the work of pre-
serving the Union. And the Southern peo-
pie will find, in the end, if they do not real
ize the fact now, that there is no hope for
them unless they strengthen and uphold the
President by carrying out in good faith, Gas
we are sorry to say they have not done thus
far0 his policy of restoration. This policy
must be adhered to in spirit as well as in
letter; and if it should not be, the President
will be gradually shorn of his influence, and
extreme views will prevail.

MIR. Stewards FEELING TOWARDS TIT,
SoUTH.-The reports in circulation here as
to the final departure of Captain Maury from
Mexico, are unfounded. 1t has been current
ly rumored that Captain Maury has been
superseded by Macmillan, and this act of
the emperor IS regarded as concession to
1ne United States Government. A private
letter recently received from Captain Many
states that he is actively engaged in deyeI-
oplng his immigration schemes, and he is
still at the head of the bureau He has oone
over to Europe on business connected with
his department The news of the dismissal
of Captain Maury would be very welcome to
Mr.. Seward, who looks with an evil eve ON
everything connected with the Mexican EN-
pire, and especially on the efforts of South
erners to establish. themselves there.
Young Gwin was recently here, endeayor-
ing to obtain the release of his father. DR.
w. M. Gwin. who is still prisoner at Fort
jackson. After several Intellectual efforts to
see Mr. Seward, whom he regard as a great
trend OF his fathers, he finally succeeded.
Mr. Seward told him that the only advice he
could give him was to leave for Europe as
soon as possible, by the first steamer. and
that it his father was released it would ONLY
be upon condition that he should also quit
the country without delay. Young Gwin
took the hint and sailed without loss of
time.

tary of State towards the Southern people.

tooth, was hired by Mr.. Hollander, of the
Cosmopolitan restaurant, to WELD fy-
brush in an artistic manner. Last night
when about to 60 home, he moved around
quite suspiciously, which led to his being
searched, and about two pounds of sugar
found on him. Sam Young was fined ten
dollars and costs by the Recorder for the
above offence, and will work twen,y-three
