WrNCHESTEB, VA- , September H. - <J haye-several times, in the past four weeks, heard the statement, as coming from Mr. Seward, that sdthough the Government has been besieged by petitions for pardon* in behalf of pro? minent Southern men now under the ban of the United States Government, that there has never been one ' voice raised in behalf of Mr. Davis; except by Mrs. Davis herself, from which Mr. Seward infers the. total?indiffer ence of the Southern -people toward the man whom; four years ago, by acclamation, they raised to the highest office in their gift. This charge, in? volving, as it does, the honor and chivalry of the South, is everywhere met with indignation rind surprise. Has Mr. Seward forgotten the procla? mation offering a reward of one thou? sand dollars for the apprehension of Jefferson Davis as an accomplice in the assassination of President Lin? coln? It has been so long since any? thing has been said about this, that we scarcely wonder at Mr. Seward's ^forgetfulness, but the South itself has ?not forgotten. Could they, for a "moment, suppose that Mr. -Johnson would listen to a petition in favor of a man who lay under so grave a charge as the one just specified? It is not as the leader of the Southern people that Mr. Davis stands before the world, but as an accused, though not convicted, murderer, and I believe, that were the United States Govern? ment to open his prison doors, and pronounce him free, he would be the first to demand an investigation of the foul charge, which must cut deeper into the heart of a high-minded gen? tleman than lochs, ham, or gyves. It is true that, in the opinion of many, Mr. Davis committed errors in judgment; but the news of his arrest, the effort, by an absurd story, to throw him into contempt andridicnle, his incarceration in Fortress Monroe, the daily bidletin of his sufferings, and the manly and dignified patience with which he has borne them, has brought back the estranged hearts, and now as one man the thoughts of the people tum to him in his lonely I prison in the deepsst pity and love, .ns one who, for his very faithfulness t j them, ^bears the punishment for the people, who stands as the martyr to the canse which has cost them so dear. Coidd Mr. Seward look into the hearts of the Southern people*, and s,?e their writhing under tho prolong- j ed and a}}parently unnecessary tor- | ture to which their former chief is j subjected, he would not accuse them ; of indifference. They turn themselves to Heaven. and with strong cryings and tears beseech God to interpose in his be? half, but they never thought of peti? tioning the "United States Govern? ment. Did they, for one instant, j imagine that it would avail, the voice which has been just raised by the women of Mississippi would sound through thc length and breadth of the Southern land, until the reproach I Winch Mr. Seward lias uttered, would Sie swept awlty by the strong arm of ' wuth, and the Southern people could ilise their hoads and say: "Tout <t prdu a l'honneur."-Correspondince ]cw York News.

WHEREAS it is ..represented that in many portions of tho State there is great disturbance and apprehension from lawless persons, who are thieving, maraud? ing and coniniitting afts of violence remote from the military garrisons stationed at th* Court Houses; and whereas Brigadier General Ames, commanding thc North? western portion of the State,has suggested tho organization of a militia police force in each District of his command, to act in concert with his forces in preserving order and peace in the community; and whereas it is supposed that tho other military com? manders will have no objections to the aid aud assistance on the p?rt of the citizens in suppressing crime and maintaining order; and" whereas, also, it appears that Presi? dent Johnson has sanctioned and author? ized the Provisional Governor of Mississip? pi to organize a similar force in that State, and has forbidden the military authorities thore to interfere with such organization: Now, therefore, I, BENJAMIN FRANK? LIN PERRY, Provisional Governor of the State of South Carolina, do proclaim, order and declare, that there shall bc formed and organized iii each Judicial District one or more militia companies for a home police, to act under and be auxiliary to the mili? tary garrison of such District in preventing crimes and preserving the peace of the District. The companies will consist of a Captain and throe Lieutenants and eighty men, scattered over the District so as to be easily accessible from all points where any disturbance may occur. When thc companies are formed;?hey will report, through their Captains, to the respective Brigadier-Generals commanding in South Carolina, and to the Provost Marshals at the respective Court Houses, aud from them receive their orders. When arrests have boen made, they' trill turn the offenders over to the civil authorities or bring them before the Provost Court Marshal for trial and punishment, according to tho terms of agreement between Generals Meade and Gilhxiorc and myself as to the respective jurisdictions of the civil and military au? thorities in South Carolina. This police guard will be voluntary in its organization, and should be composed of none but discreet persons of -banding and character in the community, who are wil? ling to render their services promptly when the occasion requires. It it, thought iliac t?ic bare organization of such forces throughout tho State, will have a most salutary influence in preserving peace and order and in preventing crime. The evil? doers will know that there is a power, ready at hand, to arrest them and bring them to justice. It is to be hoped that all good citizens will cheerfully render this service, lt should be a post of honor, as it is, to guard and protect the country.
