MIR. EWING,s LETTER

To the Editors of the Union and Dispatch.
COLUMBIA, July 81, 1851 have just
read, and have barely time to express my
fun approval of your well>eOnsidered no.
tice of Mr.. Ewings letter When re-
member the painful feeling with which
those Of US who were South read a simi-
lar letter of advice from him during the
progress of the war, l am constrained TO
regard him as an erratic and unsafe couns
selor, and think that the unfortunate
Rebels" who are the object of such
special hate at this time, owe it to them
selves to notifythe country that he is no
leader of theirs, and should not presume
to speak for them. The sO-called "Reb-
ell element of the State is not so want
ing in talent or courage, as to rest its de-
Tense ia the hands of class of men
whose sentiments in a past crisis they
abhorred, and whose leadership they
spurned. We owe it to. our manhood
and to cur self>respect, as we'll as to the
peace of society and the good of the
State, that we Tepudiate this indecent in
terheddling on the part of Mr.. Ewing
and others, and speak for ourSelUes in
whatever concerns u.s.
The people of Tennessee purpose no
strife with BrownlOw They recognize
other means than that of violence as the
proper remedy for the evils with which
they are now inflicted | have heard no
man counsel strife who was in the late
unhappy var, for the reason thqt tUhen
they couHsel it they aOW mean it, The
Confederate soldiers in Tennessee and \
the great mass OfOur people who cooper /
ated with them in the late war, have been |
grossly slandered by the Governor in his
late message Our best vindication will
be in living dOtoB the lie, which We can
DO if we bus keep to ourselves and accept
no such unnatural leadership as that
by Mr.. Ewing and Others. i
insist that no man shall longer assume
% speak for class of people of whom
ne was not one, and that the Rebel
element Of Tennessee shall in future
peak for itself. L. G. d.

TIE COUNTRY. ~
81 Ons of the best statistical authorities on
such subjects, the BaaEe's Magazine gives
the estirnated met earnings of lsbor and
bet earnings of -sapi.ap in the United
States during the five years from 1860 to
1865, as amounting to an annual average
o.. $751; 600; 900. If we assume this to be
nearly correct, and to be basis ofcalcnIa-
ton Tor The last thrse yeas also, We shall
find that while labor and capital haye
been adding to the national wealth during
the yesrsof peace from 1865 to 1865, at
| the rate Of rather less than $500 0oe, 600
per year, the Radical party has been annu-
ally consuming the national wealth at the
rate Of more than 500, ZOO, 600 per year.
For these exemplary patriots, during these
years Of peace, have expended over and
above 81, SOC, 100000 raised in the way OF
loans. To show the effect ofthis condition Of
things upon the industry of the country,
"a laboring man" in the Bangor Dsmocrat
figures o6t Che difference between the year
1853 and the present time, as follows
For four days work in 1859 l could buy

For a days work in 1859 l could buy

months and half

Of articles that laboring man and his

Tie meeting Of the ex,Confederate
Generals, which was held at the law
Office Of Gen. w. B. Bate, in this city yes.
terday, the memorial adopted by it, and
the interview during its presentation t.
the Military Committee of the Legisla
ture, constitute an event Of no ordinary
Importance in the course of our troubles.
The manner Of the reception of these
gentlemen, and confidence placed on
their sincerity and patriotism may lead,
and we trust it will, to the happiest re-
suits, Should the spirit which has actu-
ated this proceeding be met and reciprO~
Gated by the State authorities, and the
wise and respectful suggestions made be
dispassionately considered and acted
upon, we have a buoyant hope that re-
established unity and harmony, which
has been so long sadly needed, will soon
place Tennessee again on solid ground.
Whatever may bo the result, the dis
tinguishad ex-Confedcrates who have SO
dis;ntcrestedly and earnestly labored 10
this behalf have entitled them to the
gratitude of all good men. CD .,

Mr. Lincoln, it is we'll known, had de-
clared that he would never permit the hang
ing Of Milligan and Bowles. 1t was his
intention, says the New Albany Ledger, to
allow them to lie in Jail till the Close of the
war, and then release them. But this
mild policy did not suit the blOod-thirsty
Colfax and his associates, and they de-
manded The blood of these men, demand,
however, with which Mr.. Lincoln refused
to comply.
A few months after this bloody petition
was sent to Mr. Lincoln, the Supreme Court
of the United States decided that this mil
itsry. commission had no Jurisdiction what
ever in such cases az This, and that Milligsn
and Bowles were uniustly and illegally
tried and convicted. And yet Mr.. Colfax
wanted Mr.. Lincoln to bring these men to
an ignominious death upon a conviction
thus illegally fundamentally obtained. In
other words they prayed the President to
eonnive at Judicial murder. Mr.. Lincoln
relieved himself of this dreadful crime.

Brown and Foster BlOdget were defeated

to have no confidence in the renegsdes.
The former was Governor Of Georgia
during the rebellion, and the latter was
Captain in the Gonfederate service, and

In speaking of the taxation Of governs
ment bonds recently, Ben. Butler said
aTheTe must be either taxation or repu-
distion of the debt. No class of men would
pay taxes on their preperty and see their
fneighbots property escape. Taxation
should fall as the rain of Heaven falls,
alike on the just and on the unjust. Taxa
ton now falls only on the just and con-
scientious; the unjust, Iheraseab the knaYe,
make no return, and escape taxation. 'a-a E
