HEADQUARTERS, SECOND MILITARY DIVISION,
CHARLESTON, s. c., May 13, 1867.
The excellent purpose you have in view
cannot be too much commended. The lib
eraiity Of the Government OF the United
States, and the muniicent contributions
already made for the relief of the wide
spread destitution i'll the States, leaves
great numbers unprovided with food and
clothing. And until an abundant harvest
enables the people here to do more for
themselves, trust the ever generous and
prosperous committees of the North will
continue their noble gifts to this impover-
ishcd and afflicted population. With my
taking, remain, Madam, very respectful
y, DANIEL L. SfCKLES.

HEADQUARTERS, FIRST MILITARY DIVISION,
RICHMOND, VA, May IL, 1867.
Nos: HUlo're Mduter-MY DEAR MADAM:
shall be too glad il anything 1 can say
will aid the society in its noble work. 4
large proportion of the people of the South
have suffered and many are still suffering
almost to the limit OF endurance from the
devastation OF war and subsequent failure
OF crops. They are making every possible
exertion to revive their various branches
OF industry and become self-supporting
The liberal assistance which tho Northern
people are we'll able to give, will relieve o
great amount Of distress, and will no doubt
be sufficient to place the poor of the South
beyond further suffering for food. The
recent manifestations OF an almost univer-
sal desire throughout the South for a really
fraternal reunion with the North NAV we'll
serve to stimulate the generous sympathies
OF the Northern people, while nothing could
do more to foster and encourage the growth
OF healthy sentiment 10 the South than
the generous aid which it is the mission of
your society to invoke. l sincerely hope
the noble efforts of the society NAV result
in the most abundant success. l am, dear
Madam, very respectfully, your obedient
GREENSBORO, May II, 1867.
Have Just returned from tonr through
the section made memorable by "Sher-
mans march to the seaboard." Poverty,
suffering and destitution of the people can
scarcely be realized-livipg in huts, rudely
constructed of charred boards, of rails,
eyed, emaciated forms, whose first words
are "bre ad"-for something to atitle the
cravings of hunger. In one place, wit
messed the body of child borne to it's last
rest, on q board, in the same rags in which
it died. In another, four females existed
for week on two pounds OF corn, together
with some roots. On the road l met an
othor who had walked twelve miles to beg
some food for her children. Many other
instances can be given of sad suffering
from actual want of food. Very truly,
FREDERICK WATTS, NJ. d.

Cypperhoad stumpers and Coppcrhead

great hue aud cry about the exemption Of
Government bonds from taxation. Now,
the indianapolis Journal has been examin.

that between the fret day of August, ] 100,
aud the first day Of March, 1861 more than
fifty acts were passed by Congress, author

Treasury 70 borrow money on the credit Of
the United States aud there was not in any
Of them, a provision that the bonds or other
evidences Of Indebtedness issued to those
who loaned their money to the government
should be subject to State taxation.

country with rare intervals from the or

earlier and botter days, let us see whether
they did not authorize the issue Of unlaxa.

THE INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE
ron COUNTY AUDITOR.

=
Last week We promised 10 give an ex-
position Of the scheme which led to the
nnnobucomet'of ADDISON Snrn, as an in.
dependent candidate for County Auditor.
We will now fulfill that promise. Certain
Republicans in this town, VINO have re.
garded themselves as the big wheels of the
Union party in Wood County, not satisfied
with the ticket placed 10 nomination by the
Onion County Convention, determined to
turn disorganizers, and ruin the party which
they cen not rule. Accordingly, they i'm.
portnned Mr.. SMtru by day aud by night
to go before the people as a candidate for
Auditor. The announcement, in the last
joURSAL, Of his name, thus far shows their
Uuecess. For two weeks previous TO that
announcement rumors daily reached orr
ears that Mr.. SAITH would be a candidate,
but we placed no confidence in them what.
ever. for we could not believe that man
who had been honorod with Office, both of
profit and trust in this county, for period
oftweuty years, would leud himself TO the
scheme Of these disorganizers and thus re.
pay with ingratitude .he confidence Of the
party, that 80 bonored him in timo past
We say, we could not believe it, for we
have, since our acquaintance with Mr..
SMrTn, always entertained for him feelings
of tho highest regard, and our confidence
in the man WAS mistaken.
But these Jacobins of the Republican
party accomplished their object, and the
next thing.to be determined was, how he
shonld be brought before the people so as
to secure the largest support. After many
counselpgs and hobhobbings with leading
Democrats in this town, it was finally de-
cided that Mr.. Smith should announce HIM
self as on independent candidate prior to
the Democratic Convention, thereby secur.
ing what Union votes he could, and after
that the Democracy iu convention as.
sembIed should place him on their ticket,
Thus, with the entire support of Demo.
cratic strength, added to tho votes OF dis
affected Union men, they entertain the
Illusion that he will be elected ---Events
have transpired according to their pro
grammo. In last Fridays JOURNAL, Mr..
SMITH announced himself an independent
candidate for County Auditor, in compli
ance with the wishes of many long.known
friends Of BoTu political parties" On the
day. following, tho Democracy, in their
convention at Bowling Green, placed him
on the Democratic county ticket. Com,
ment is unnecessary, No Union man will
be guled by that dish. and Mr.. SMITH can
take this consolation to his hesrt--that he
will be the worst beaten man tha: ever run

REDUCTION OF THE DEBT.

From September |, 1865, to September j.
1861 period of two yeors--the national
debt has been reduced, in spite of Copper
heodraving and sneering, S264, ,906, 200 3S,
proving that the Uhion party has been as
successful in its financial measures as IL
wps in its military measures. The efforts
of tho Copperhcad party impaired our ma
tionnl credit, making it difficult to nego.
tiate loans. That party prolonged the war
and iucrcased the debt, Daring those two
years we paid of, besides an immense noat
ing debt--the debris Of the wa7. In the
face of oil this the reduction of the debt
las been rapid and certain. This is at
tho ratio of 81 ,O37 75s 60 per month, or
S36T,925 25 per day
Suppose the Democratic party were now
in power il ia absolutely certain that this
debt would be largely increased. Kcr-
tucky, Maryland and Delaware, are now de
manding untold millions to pay for thoir
slaves. Every Democrat is committed to
their payment All over the South rebels are
pressing claims for injnrios during The war
A Democratic Congress would graut them
ALL Nearly every Democratic Senator and
member has committed himself TO princi,
pies. which, If once adopted, will add to
the debt five hundred to one thousand
millions of dollars.

FROM WOODElLLE.

WooDvfLLE, SANruskY Co., o., Sept 10, 1867.
Enron JouRNAL; Woolville, both the village
and township, has, politically, a wide, aud cxten-
sive reputation it b. ing known far and near, that
it is decidedly Copperhead.
The time h0, been, when the township polled
only 10 Republican votes, AMI that time since the
olt rcak Of the rebC llon; but, thanks t. the
earnest endeavers Of the 10, the departure of
Of their political enemies and the arrival OF others
Of Union sentiment, the number of Union voters
has gradually advanced to 100, or more. Another
change in the condition of political affairs, has,
however, since taken place, caused by tho arrival
of n number Of citizens, but a short time before
from the Fadcrland," and the resHlt may be
imp gined from the cause.
However, in order to have Il well un lerstood
let me say, that pop the number Of voters and
opposers OF modern Democracy, is about rs.
These, though few In comparison with the OPP
posing element, are of the t-WeSt blie and the man
ner in which they support their cause by turning
out on such occasions as elections, m m }etings
&c., certainly entities them to place among the
"blue heu's chickens"
On Tue sday, the 10th inst, Woodville Unioniss
made quite demonstration. The occasion was
nne of a grand Union rally and mass meeting at
Fremont, and the victory over Copperheads most
complete. Doubly so, from the fact that not long
since the fai,him signdlly failed in raising even
a small delegation to rreot Copp, rh sad "pow-
wow" at tho same plac,. With this recent
Copperhead Jdiiwe to stimulate them, Woodvillan
Radicals determined to make display that would
eclipse their opponents.
[0ur correspondent then gives a detailed account
of the demonstration which We omit on account
of the crowded state ofour columns. Solico It to
say it was success in every particular and every
thing passed of satisfactorily, He thus closes his
letter i
The days demonstration abounds with lessons

Of patriotism which burned in the breast of lo,Rl
Wooiviians during the war, now burns as bright
