There is an error here, on cost, if moth

100000 in trade and commerce, tariffs,
bounties, currency, etc, etc. 1t will un-
settle all the existing calculations of COM

probably hold on till July, 1868.
Nevertheless, if the radicals desire to
meet the Democrats in July, We are all
ready to be on hand, after we see them
there. The South can be kicked and
cufied a little more, and white men be

HEADQUARTERS FIRST MILITARY
DISTRICT RICHMOND, Va,
June 8, 1867.
To His ExcelleDcy, w. G. Brownlow,
Governor of Tennessee, Nashville,
Tenn;
SIR have received a communication
from q number of citizens of Lee county.
Va, complaining Of the action of bodies of
men in Tennessee, who have entered the
state of Virginia, and forcibly seized citi-
zens of this state and carried them into
Tennessee. and imprisoned them for al
legged offences committed during the war.
Among others are especially mentioned the
names of Il. e. Anderson, of Scott county,
and Nj. Levason, of Lee county, Va.
| respectfully request that steps may be
taken to prevent the lawless acts complain
ed of, and to restore to liberty persons who
have been unlawfully arrested in Virginia
and carried into Tennessee.
/ have received from you acquisitions
for the rendition of several persons accus-
ed of committing crimes i'll Tennessee du-
ring the war. Some OF the parties claim
that the acts of which they are accused
were lawful acts of war, committed under
recognized military authority, and that the
necessary witnesses for the defence are
men who were engaged in the same, or
similar acts, and who would consequently
be liable to arrest and Imprisonment if
they were to go into Tennessee as witness
es.
| have directed an investigation to be
made in each of the cases referred to, and
will act in accordance with the facts which
may be developed.
In cases where men are indicted for
crimes committed since the war, | will
cause their arrest and rendition to the civ
il authorities of Tennessee upon your re-
QUESTION. But when the acts charged
were proper acts of war, done under re-
ccgnized military authority, it would not
be proper for me to send a citizen of Vir-
ginia to Tennessee for trial.
L hope the views [ have expressed will
coincide with those entertained by your
self, and also by Gen. Thomas, to whom
[ have addressed a letter similar in pur-
port to this, and hat we may be able to so
cooperate as to secure justice and prevent
the repetition o facts which tend to vio-
lence and disorder.

ent servant, j. NJ. SCHoFIELD,

1t is the constitutional duty of the

So much is being said by the radical
press about the persecution of "loyal' men
in the south that it is no more than RICH.
that the people shoah know the reason
for these unmitigated libels upon a brave
and self-sacrifcing people, impoverished
by war. Now and then may be found a
Republican with honor enough left to put
the wrongs and outrages where they Justly
belong. Below is a letter written by a fed

The Washington AateUigsnesr, of Thurs
day morning, says hat if Congress meets
in July, it should commemorate the ami
versary of National Independence by re.
pealing the military acts, by Withdrawing
from the South all military supervision
and controversy, and admitting represen-
tation from the now excluded States. IF
this were done, it says the Union would
be at once harmoDized and confidence
would be restored. The gloom and doubt
that hangs over industrial pursuits would
be removed, and the country would enter
upon a course of unbounded prosperity.
