A NEW DEMOCRATIC MovEMENr-AN New
ork letter to Philadelphia paper contains
the following:
Gas matter of some political interest, it ma
be mentioned that many of the more prominent
leaders of the Democratic party, who have been
quietly In consultation here during the week.
are In favor of speedy change of the entire
policy OF that party, in the hope that it will en-.
able them to carry the next Presidenta. cleo.
ton 10 make long story short, the plan is
simply this-to ignore the negro altosetbe
and bring up internal Improvements" 10 bis
place. They will pledge themselves 10 favor of
the Niagara Ship Canal, in favor of connecting
the Chesapeake Bay with Ohio, in favor of re-.
constructing the Mississippi levees, and of
pushing forward to completion the three lines
of Pacific Railroad. 1t is calculated thxt on
these issues they can carry the great West. es.
pecially if Free Trade be tackled on, while of
their success in the Middle States thew profess
to have no doubt That is the programme in
outline. 1t will have some filling up in regard
to tho Monroe Doctrine, the Constitutional oh.
legations, and the binding force of Supreme
Court decisions; but Internal Improvements
aud Free Trade will be the two pillars on which
the platform will be made to rest.
This new political movement as I have s.;d
has been quietly maturing for some time past
but it will not be long before it is oficiallv an
nounced, and with the announcement the Dem
ocratic campaign for the next Presidency viii

ANOTHER MILITARY ORDER.
The following order explains itself:

HEADQUARTERS, I'd MILITARY DISTRICT, |
Charleston, S. c., April 27, 1867.
In reply to letters received at these Head
quarters, asking information as to the operation
in particular cases of General Order No. 10,
current series from these Headquarters, | am
directed by the Commanding General to state,
that the provisions of the order will be inter
preted and enforced by the Courts. The order
is to be deemed and taken as an ordinance
having the sanction and authority of the United
States for the regulation of certain civil affairs
therein specified within so much Of the territory
occupied by the military forces of the United
States, lately the theatre Of war, as is embraced
within the Second Military District, created by
Act of Congress.
Although some of the former political rela-
.tions Of the inhabitants are in allegiance, their
private relations, their persons and property
and their remedies for wrongs remain as hereto.
FORE within the cognzance of the local tribunals
and subject of the laws of the Provisional Gov
eminent hitherto in force, except so far as such
laws are in conflict with the Constitution and
laws of the United States, or with the regula
tions prescribed by the Commanding General.
Amongst the consequences necessarily Incl
dent to the military authority established BY
Congress, and indispensable to the objects fol
which the authority is established, is the ap
pointment and control of the civil agents BY
which, and the measures by which the Govern
ment ad interim is to be conducted. In the
exercise of this authority, such regulations anC
appointments will be announced from time tc
time as may become necessary; and so far as
these regulations concern the ordinary civi
relations of the inhabitants, they will be admin
istered by the Courts and by the proper civil
officers in the usual course of procedure.
Whilst it will not be convenient to respond
to particular enquiries made by citizens as te
the Interpretation and application of these regu
lations, such interrogatories will be answered
when addressed to the General Commanding by
tho Appellate Courts of Law and Equity.

SPEECHES OF coLoRED MEN.

James H Harris addressed large concourse Of
the colored people of Halifax, N. G, few days
since. His speech is represented by the State to
have been of conciiatory and conservative
character. We copy from the State:
HE said he felt it his especial duty to tell them
that confscation was only trap set to catch their
votes. Excitement That the Dutch and Irish
boys in blue fought for their pay, and not for
negro emancipation. "Who tells you that the
government is going to give you the lands of
your former masters is knaye and liar. If
you think | am deceiving you, the illusion will
be very soon dispelled" Here the most intense

ken it. l have offended some, am aware and
to me it is matter of Indifference" The speaker
concluded by advising his hearers to pledge their
votes to no one"
Sill. Barnes, another colored man, also spoke,
and the same paper furnishes an abstract of his
remarks:
HE said (among other things that the
negroes duty is to labor. Politics was the rock
on which the Union was dissolved, and advise
my race to steer aloof from it. He said no man
who had been kind to him should ever have any
but his best wishes. And his best friends, those
tried before and since the war, are those with
whom he had been raised, and in whose service
he had spent the happiest days of his life Give

friend by instinct. For himself he would no:
give Col N. NJ. Long for any Reed, he cared no,
on what murky slough it had grown. The former
he could rely upon. The latter he had no con-
tidence in. He loved his old master, and felt
towards him as if he had been his father. He
would fight for him? Though he never worked
for him while slave, he would labor for him now

A wedding at St. Pauls Church, in Chicago,
was singula-ly frustrated on Thursday evening"
The bride, with her friends, went to the church
at the appointed hour, and waited long while,
but no bridegroom arrived. She was finally
borne home in nearly insane condition. The
bridegroom, named Thompson, left his place Of
business in good time to prepare for the wedding,
since which he has not been heard of.
