• I am eery sorry to my that I am diaappoint-
, wd in the conduct of the freedmen. I had
hoped that they would have shown themselves
worthy of freedom, and by cheerful industry
and an honest hfe, would have merited the in
creased confidence and sympathies of their
-friends. But so far from this being the case,
they are actually occasioning a feeling of an-
Xioty far'the peace of the country. To such
-nn extent does this exist, that in the judgment
. Of the best informed officers and civilians.it
'would bo madness to remove the troops from
•ur midst,' at least for some time to come. Wc
■de net wish to see' the re-ensetmont in this
country, of tho horrors which attended the
mutiny in India. As to the district militia,
they would bo utterly inadequate unless aided
by a regular force. A distinguished officer
remarked to me r««eat!y, that he thought the
' present force should be doubled, and I fully
eenenr with him. To withdraw the military

settles down Under the new order of things,
would bo like driring an unarmed man into a
jungle infested with tigers, or like throwing
overboard tho passengers into a sea filled with
•harks. It would be a crime against human
ity, and a crime not ignorantly committed, for
the military an in possession of facts which
nood not be ventlktod in your paper. .As a
citiiea, I rejoice at the prospective restoration
« of civil authority.* * As a lover of peace, I am
v grateful for tho good order which has been
maintained by the present garrison. And as
m friend of both racee, averse to the useless
- -shedding of blood, I would deprecate any line
■of policy which would lead to terrible eonfiicts
and feerfbt disaster. And such would un-
questioeably follow the premature removal of

fio Ik* Kditor •/ Ike -Vnr Era:
In your issue of the drd inst., I find com-
mnMoaUmu ihftt surprise me as they ao cm
phetioally deny the statements in Horptr't
WsriVi of IJ«pt. 30th, concerning the exccu-
ti«n of tha slave girl “.4my."
r .Not only docs the denial of such statements
wurprise me, but I believe tbe very hsreh Un-
guggo which U nsed toward N. N. Edwards to
fire unjust and uncalled for, especially in the
communication from the Pastor of the MetU-
<vlk*t Church ; for, i have ne doubt Mr. Ed
wards waa informed concerning what he wrote
«nd believed it true.
I have been told by citizens and Confederate
no Idlers repeatedly that'tbe girl was hung by
Che citizens of this tows, Mid led to believe
that not only the Post, but the Court which
ncntbncod her was controlled by them cititens.
Yam not aware of any acquaintance with N.
V Edwards, but if he was guilty of writing
n faUo statement in tbi* case. 1 am in the same
condition, for I have not only written similar
elate ta-nU, but believed them true. Nor can I j
•M why one Che hid Willingly calumniate his
own people and town.
Net only the spot but tho limb of the tree
hec been shown to me on which she was bung,
afiid tho names of some of the most prominent
•ereons present (certainly more than six) have
been given me.
Lot tho Rwerened gentleman take this mat
ter heme to himself; would he be willing to ho
ealled n liar if he should report a circumstance,
n scene, aa net of cruelty, of inhumanity, told
him hy residents of tha place where it occurred,
whose integrity he had no right te doubt ?
If the gentleman has fault to find, why do
It la to repulsive a manner ! Why not begin
at home where the story originated? If net
tame why ee sensitive and full of invective ?
why display such no ungracious temper in his
eommuntcation exonerating tha unblsmeable ?
It will reqeire a refutation very different in
rtyte from hia td convince any oae of the fal-
•tty of what appeared in Harper * Weekly.
Ehould wo oxpect from a Christian Pastor
language ee utterly at variance with the char
acter, attributes, conversation, or foeliugs of
ea ombaMador of the meek and lowly Savior?
who should heal rather than aggravate the
wounds of tko community? He asks what
pasition tko proprietor* of Harper * Weekly
•hall occupy, who allow themselves too eheer-
fully to bo impoeed upon by writers utterly
unworthy of confidence, and calls the world
*fe decide.
• I wiR ask the gentleman if it will be bard
fer the world to believe this case of cruelty in
sondunction with tbeeaormotu cruelties brought
. As light in ths trial orWixt, tbe murderer of
thsoaaada at AsdersoBrille ? Will thsy not be
justified in believing thia case of the slave girl
peseibls, to My the least, when they read the
■aihsrian cruelties practiced on prisoners-of-
wnr, proven beyond n doubt by tho commission
Bow investigating this unpsralelled butchery
of tko disarmed and defenceless ? He forgets
Ant fanes of cruelty are not rare in Ibis lo
cality ; that there is now at the Poet Hospital
in Darlington n poor ox-slave who was shot
thrsogh the back by a claimant to rospootnbil-
Uy and refinement, whs, perhaps, would call
(as dess tho Roverosod gentleman) N. N. Ed
wards ”n liar."

went North on a furlough for the benefit of his
health.
Logsn Lad heard much of His Excellency,
Governor Andrew, of Massachusetts, and of
his devotion to the interests of tbe colored peo
ple of the South. He determined to avail him
self of the first opportunity to pay his respects
to the Governor, and to evince his gratitude
for the great influence His Excellency was ex
erting in the country in favor of the colored
people, and to do it in n way to be remembered.
while sauntering about tbe streets of Boston
•ne afternoon in pursuit of amusement, Logan
visited tbe Menagerie. Here bis experienced
eye saw n young, Raccoon of the finest pro
portions. Ho at once resolved to buy it, train
it, and then to present it to the Governor.
He bought it. He found tbe animal docile,
and very well trained in the performance of a
number"of little tricks. After waiting a few
days, one fine morning, dressed in his army
blue, Logan took tbe Coon under bis arm,
walked up to the State House, and presenting
himself to tbe Messenger, asked to see the
Governor. Tbe Governor, learning that a sol-*
dicr of Massachusetts awaited to see him, or
dered Logan to be promptly admitted, and in
his polite and graceful manner invited him to
be sealed.
Logan immediately proceeded to State the
object of his call, by saying that he was a pri
vate in tho 65th Regiment of Massachusetts
Volunteers, that he bad been serving in South
Carolina, and while there bad found near the
plantation of a prominent secessionist, a Coon,
which he had taught with a view of presenting
to His Excellency ; that he bad while iu the
South, upon tbe tiresome march as well as in
camp, bestowed much labor upon its training,
and that he now desired His Excellency to ac
cept it, as a token of his high appreciation of
Hia Excellency’s efforts in behalf of the color
ed people of the South.
The Governor was much pleased to accept
the Coon, which Mr. Logan bad been kind ,
enough to bring such a long distance, and he
thought it a very interesting one. He availed
himself of the opportunity to assure Mr. Logan
that his efforts in behalf of the colored people
of tbe South would continue with unabated
zeal. ,
After tbe osnel ceremonies Logan withdrew,'
and at the expirstieuof hia furlough joined his
Regiment.
The Governor has not yet been informed of
tbe joke: bathe often thinks-of Logan, in
quires after his health, and talks of his South
Carolina Coon! M.

Truth.
There has always existed a conflict between
truth and falsehood. Truth ia Guo’s instru
ment for the establishment of the permanent
happiness and prosperity of man. While
falsehood was the introduction of Satan’s lever
for the overthrowing of the benevolent designs
of God towards the human race.
But truth has never lost its power. While
error and falsehood have ever bi ought distress
and misery upon their votaries and bound them
iu oppressive chaius, he who has chosen truth
for his portion has found it his guiding star in
the way of prosperity, the harbinger of free
dom, and the protector of such true spiritual
liberty as ealls forth the sweetest songs of
praise from the pure and holy, both on earth
and in Heaven. But notwithstanding its en
lightening and elevating power, its source, and
divine authority, truth has found its opponents
in all ages of tbe world. It has only been
able to eome down to the present generation
laden with its rich fruit by facing the most
violent oppoeition, and wading through rivers
of blood. But galling chains, gloomy prisons,
furnaces of fire, and tbe oppressor s sword,
have been proved incapable to extinguish the
light of this golden lamp of Heaven, which
Goo in mercy has given to a benighted world.
In man there is a wonderful dispoaition to
love that which approves of his chosen course
ia life, and bate that which brings to light his
errors and reproves him for hia sins. More
than eighteen centuries have past since one
appeared in the land of Judea, who, though
be was meek and lowly in heart, yet gave to
the world the clearest evidence that he was
possessed of that power which in the world’*
primeval state said “let there be I ght and there
waa light.” Although hia life ana works gave
evidence of his Divine nature, and his instruo-
tionl were clothed with ail the purity of the
leve of Heaven, and his most inveterate ene
mies were compelled to acknowledge that never
man had spoken like him, yet this great teach
er who eame from Heaven, and wielded the
two-edged aword in the most skUlftd sad pow
erful manner, by ito use called forth haired
from the wicked, revenge from the vile, sad
death-plotting schemes trea those who made
tho kighoet profession of godliness of all men
oa earth. The proud Pharisees, who made a
high profession of their love of truth, eould
not boar tho sight of their own deformities
when they beheld them in the mirror that tho
Son of God boM before their eyes.
When to their own view waa revealed them
••Wee resembling garnished sepulchres, fair
indeed upon the outside but inwardly full of
oorruption. H called forth tho deeply rt
revenge of their hearts, whioh eould only bo
