As a Letter-Writer,

The following communication
was addressed by Senator Revels
to a Republican ward meeting in
Washington. 1t is, doubtless, the
only genuine specimen of his
erudition which has yet been CIV
en- to the public by the colored
Senator:
10 the Executive Committee Of the
Republican Party Of the First
Ward:
GENTLEMEN: IN reply to your
invitation to address a meeting
of your ward this evening, I must
observe that, aside from the ques-
ton of propriety, which, on due
ret1ection, I think must be obvi-
GUS to all, I am debarred by my
engagements from taking per-
sonal part with you further than
stating that, after due inquiry and
investigation, I am confirmed in
the impression received of the
characteristics of Mayor Bowen
from the newspaper accounts
away down in Mississippi. And
now, after taking a nearer view,
1 am decidedly of opinion. that
your present candidate, Sayles j.
Bowen, who dared the conflict in
behalf Of your rights two years
ago, and against tremendous
odds led you to victory, is the
only man to be your standard
bearer on the present occasion,
and THAT to desert him for another
at this time would be to be guilty
of the folly described by the good
and wise Abraham Lincoln as
"an attempt toswap horses whilst
crossing the stream" 1t would
be certain to end in disaster. In
conclusion I will say that Mayor
Bowen has my hearty indorse-
ment. Very truly, yours,
| III. II. EcEvELs.

features Of the bill. Drake and
Cameron made acrimonious radi-
cal speeches. Revels, of Missis-
sippi, who had been called out by
Mr.. Sawyer, rose to state his
views, and Of course every one
turned to catch what he had to
say. He stated that as to his
own position he was in favor OF
removing the disabilities from all
who showed they were fit for it.,
and the only evidence of this fit
ness was to be found in their sup
porting and laboring to carry out
the laws of Congress. The Re
publican party of Mississippi had
during the canvass pledged itself
to Il general amnesty, and the
Republican Legislature had pass
ed laws to that effect. Mississippi,
he said, was so we'll reconstructed
that there was no disorder there
and the people were as quiet and
harmonious as in any Northern
State. He was, therefore, in IA
vor of relieving everybody in
Mississippi. The people We're fit
for it. These remarks did not
occupy five minutes. and seemed
as if they had been carefully pre-
pared to fit Mr.. Sawyer's interrog-
atories. Thayer, who was the
next speaker, indorsed, RevePs
speech as proper to be circulated
everywhere. The debate showed
a great division as to the pending
measure, Messrs. Sherman, Will
Hams and Hamlin desiring to sub
stitute the House for the Senate
bill, Stewart and Sumner protest
ing against this course.

Hon. G.. w. Mechanic is now
at home, and commences at once
the good work of. putting down
tile new party movement.
Is it not very strange that some
of our brethren will still try to
make the impression that McCra-
ME was refused his seat in Con-
gress on the ground of disqualifi-.
cation, or ineligibility. They must
read the proceedings Of Congress,
and all we ask of them is to deal
fair with us. MIR. McCranie was
refused his seat simply ON tho
ground Of supposed fraud in the
election ,yand nothing else. Sup
pose we had sent a sott-sheU, what
would have been the difference3
We ask Of you gentlemen to let
your readers know all the facts
The truth is there is only one
course for the South to pursue in
her national representation, and
that is, to send true men Or none
at all. If we send a man who
does not represent the sentiments
of the people, we can't under
stand how he could really repre-
sent us: It is a strange thing to
us that the very best men in the
country cau't represent the peo.:
pie. The objection urged against
him is that he has been a warm
and devoted friend to his country
Oh, what wonderful govern
ment! that the man, the least ac-
ceptable with the people, is tho
most acceptable in Congress, or
any other position. This policy
is at work in every corner of tho
South, and the Southern heart is
yielding for the sake of peace
This idea is fast bringing us to
nothing. 1t is effectually fasten-
ing upon the government the
whole reconstruction programme
When we send the right man to
Congress, and he is true to his
country and to his people, they
send him away, for no other petr-
pose than to make ats send 1cedker
one, one they can control. Some of
our people are becoming over
anxious about representation, for
it is worth nothing to us unless
it can represent us. Our doctrine
simply is, the right man or none.-
Claiborne Advocate.

In the New Orleans Bulletin, of
the 9th ult., there appeared the
following communication the wri-
ter whereof is unknown to us. If
Mr.. McCranie is believed by his
people to possess one-half the
virtues ascribed to him by H., he
is in no great danger of being
crushed by the "six-cylinder'' of
the New Orleans Times. II. is
entitled, nevertheless, to the SIN
,cere gratitude of the TELEGRAPH,
and the friends who support it to
the republication of his letter I'M
modest as it may appear:
Your nei gh hbor-in-law, the Times,
under the pressure of some great
provocation invisible to the eye
of the general reader, speaks of
Geo. w. McCranie, Of Ouachita, in
terms Of disparagement and dis
praise. AS he is an esteemed
friend, I would respectfully ask
permission to correct any false i'm
preston which the inconsiderate
and ill-tempered attack. of the
Times might possibly leave. So
far from being the ignorant and
conceited person described by the
Times, I know him to be held in
estimation as high as any man Of
his age, 10y all that know him
we'll. He is candid, frank, truth
full, manly, brave and generous.
His tone Of thought and feeling
is elevated. He is large in mind
and heart. He is incapable of
any kind Of lncanness or of
any manner of dishonest Or dis
honorable action. In a word, he
is thoroughly a gentleman. and
is so held by all of that class who
know him. His character has
been tried and proven under a
variety of circumstances. His
career has been without a stain.
He hates vice in all forms and
when it is shown by public char
acters he rebukes it with much
severity. Timid and over prsl-
dent men may think that he is rash;
changelings may consider him
obstinate; trimmers and tricksters
may deem him impracticable, but
all who know. him feel that he is
worthy of confidence. 1 do not
know that he assumes the "cham-
pionship'' in his district, yet I
presume that the people there
respect him for his courage and
integrity, and that they have
something for him to do in their
behalf whenever villainous Con-
gress shall suffer them to exercise
their just function of self govern
| ment. ID.

The Washington Chronicle VS.. Sena-
tors Trumbull, Edmunds, ConkGng
and Ferry.
In answer to the Senate Judi
ciary COMMITTEES report, involving
he Washington Chronicle, the
Administration organ, in certain
corrupt practices to defeat the
Georgia bill of the House in it's
passage through the Senate, D.
@. Forney, publisher of that pa
per, publishes a lengthy reply.
We make an extract to show the
state Of feeling in the Republican
party: r
But why should we complain
of these assaults7 Who that has
witnessed the recent onsets upon
Charles Sumner and Oliver p.
Morton for daring to do right by
the Union people of the South
will wonder at the crusade upon
the Chronicle? That they spoke
for the great body of the Repub-
lican party, North and South, is
as true as that their assailants
spoke for the Democrats and
rebels.
When the Republican party re-
jects such leaders and follows the
counsels of the defenders of An
drew johnson its days are num-
bered. 1t will deserve neither
respect nor success. It will fall,
covered with the odium Of treach-
cry to its principles and injustice
to it's friends.
But this deserves to be stated
for the benefit of the constituents
Of the four men who have been
manipulating the Judiciary Com
mittee of the Senate in the inter
ests of the rebellion, and also to
rescue the Republican party from
responsibility for their actions.-
All their attempts to emasculate
the reconstruction measures have
! been overruled by the Senate
| they were overruled in the first
Georgia bill. which they attempt
ed to push through without re-
quiring the Legislature of that
State TO ratify the fifteenth
amcndment; they were overruled
| in the attempt to. force in Virginia
| without recurring previous tunda-
mental conditions from the Leg
islature; they were also overruled
in Il similar attempt to admit
Mississippi without fundamental
conditions; they were utterly
worsted in their bitter hostility
to General Ames, the Republican
Senator elect from Mississippi;
they were again overwhelmed in
the Georgia bill when they re-
| ported it with the Bingham
amendment, the Senate prefer
ring a military government to that
dangerous concession. But their
most crushing defeat was the
manner in which the Senate, on
the motion Of tho cautious John
Sherman, wrenched the Texas
bill from their grasp, and i'll spite
Of their pleas and their promises,
put it on its passage, and admit
ted the two brave Republican
| Senators, who would now be like
Georgia, out in the cold, if the
obstructive quartette had had their
way. This was the drop that
overHowed their bitter cup, and
as they drank it off they resolved
to destroy Bullock and the Chron-
ic1e by one grand coup in stheir
close and secret Star Chamber
Their failure in this, as in all
their other experiments, proves
absolutely that the Judiciary Com
mittee of the Senate does not rep
resent the Republican party OF
the country.
