in the North, whose efforts will surely h crushed by utter defeat, whoee effect may fa to feed Northern radicalism in its unoonst tutional demands against the South; be it is in -the power of the South, by publi meetings and addresses, to disavow and t rebate these jcgglers, who are not inoorpc rated with any great Northern organization but who only plays local parts for local endt Be not deoeived by snoh ! The great bod of the North marohes one way, under*th present guidance of the President, and tha way the war haB demonstrated as we bav hereinbefore explained. So, on the othe band, other parties will desire to set up th rebellion only to knook it down again,s muoh political thunder, brutum falmen.-But let not the South be disoonraged a dismayed on that aeoonot for these likewis are one tne games, or loeai politicians, am . m they will simply re-act and strengthen th South, if the South will only promptly in stantly assert itself in acts as it represent itself in the Sontbern journals and throngl the voice of well-known Sontbern gentle men. The South must haBten to place il self above suspicion by all its publio acts . if it would get rid of the numerous ?mie representations' of which it complains.? The time is short, for prejudices soon hard ea into adamantine walls of separation? ?nd the Union is the only plaoe of refng and of hope for the South?the Union where the loyal Northern masses long t \ see and to welcome her." VI. THE CHARACTER, PbLICY AND INTENTIONS O PRESIDENT JOHNSON. "Above all, if their intentions are good they must not despond, bat oheerily &n< courageously they mast bear tbe thorns c punishment^ though they bleed; re mem bering always that the President of th land is the President and father of thi whole people, and that he is not the head c a merciless and bar barons party, bent o< Southern humiliation and destruction. W believe him to be an able, sonnd-beaded patient, patriotio, humane, firm, cautions and candid man, whose heart's desire it i to erowo his administration with the UDipi of these States*-a' reward higher ant brighter than any other within moralpowe to confer; and he is shrewd eoongh to sei through tricksters when their game is clear ly before him, if it shall be exposed as foul game by the undeviating loyalty of tbr Sooth; and, furthermore, let the South b assured, if they are patient and true, tha behind the President there is a Northen sentiment even stronger than her myriad of resistless armies, and which is, that on Union of consent and equality shall be res tored on the basis of uni versal freedom am of one over-ruling sovereign nationality.? Let the Sooth instantly accept, and every where declare, and politically aot upon thi platform, and our glorious Union is aliv again in all its original spirit Then thos foul birds called demagogues will flee, for time, at any rate, from before the face of JNNtwakened and united nation, and w shall indeed be one people. All our hope rest with yon, men of the Sooth?in you patriotism, patience, self-denial and sa v . THE SOUTH IE CONGRESS. Prominent among the most earnest advo oates of the humane and wisely polioy o the President is the Worldy a New Yorl paper of very large oirenlation and grca influence at the North. Although the or ganof the War Democrats during the civi war, now It is aa able opponent of radical ism, and a most usefgl and outspoken ft?en< of the Southern people. . For that reason we ask the attentive pe rusal of the following extract from a luti editorial in the World with reference t the persoDB who should be sent to CoDgres by the Southern people. The sincere well * * m ^ * ? ? XT ,? \\ wishers ot the ooatn at tne i>ortn aj 1 udh in advising the line of policy marksd on by the World. Let these extracts be tea* and re-read by the people of the South : "It depends, after all, mainly upon thi people of the South, whether the Presiden shall be defeated and humiliated, and thei section be kept for a long period under tin iron heel' of military authority. Thei bearing is, thus far, admirable. But i they should do anything, or allow anything to be done, by?which the explosive and pas eionate Radicals could rekindle public in dignation in the North, and cause a re action, their oondition will be sealed for ; long time. . The President is powerles against Congress, uoless supported by : public set*tiu?ent too 'stroDg for Congress t resist. "The Soutb is, therefore, bound in self protection, as well as by -every motive 0 duty and patriotism, to aid the Presiden and their friends in the Axortn, dy me un objectionable character of the men the; elect to Congress and their nneqnivoca eobmissiveness evinced in their State man agement. If, immediately after re-organi zation, they will get their State Legislature together and ratify the pending Constitii tional amendment, ttiey will thereby greatl1 aid their oause. As they all acquiesce ii the destruction of slavery," there can be m serious objection to their taking this aotion which will finally shut the door against th< aspersions of the Radicals on their sincer "ity in submitting to emancipation, and pre -vent the re-opening of doubts as to its con stitutional validity. Their failure to do thi would, of course, be no .reason for the re jeetion of their representatives .to Congress but the ratification of the amendment wouh increase the moral power of the Presiden and his control over the sobjeot. "The most important thing cf all, in it bearing on the difference between the Pree ident and the Radicals, is the character c the men eleoted by the South to represen them in Congress. This is a not a subjec for ingenius reasonings and hair-splittini 'distinctions. The South must face the facn ;If there be anything certain, it is tbs ;members who have been identified with th rrebeUion will be rejected. The new oatl Twhich until repealed has the -force of lav requires all members of each boose toe wee Chat they have never rendered voluntary ai to ?be enemies of the United States A some future day, when confidence is rnoi fully re-established, this law may be r< pealed, but certainly not at present, an probably not until after the Southern sea are all filled. "The South must be foolishly blind I the insurmountable nature of this l>a*rie e Even if the Clerk of the House of Repree sontatives should read the names of memi bers olaiming seats. from the South, they it could not aot until sworn iu; apd the oath o issuoh that no active participant in the reo bellion can take it. This faot so narrows > the field of seleotion that' in some few i, Southern districts competent men cannot i. be found. But it would be better to take a y man ignorant of politios, wbo had been e oonseripted, against his will, into the .t Southern &rmy, than the ablest man in the e Sontb if he has been promineut in the reit bellion. There will be snoh a deafening e ballaBalloo raised by the Radioals over men o who are* not sonnd, such a raking op and - parading of antecedents, such, charges of a r readiness to commit peijury, that even a e few blaok sheep in the Southern delegations 3 would greatly prejudioe the policy of tho e President. The Sooth ought to take warn inp bv the avowed onnoflition of the PreSN " r rf ? rr 8 dent, which is at present so rapidly devela oping among the Northern Radicals. The >_ contest in Congress is likely to Be fierce and passionate, and we trust the Sonth will so i,. aot as to aid their friends, not their enei mies." ' From the New York Times. . The North and South?The Speech of 9 Hon. Thad. Stevens. , There are a great many Southerners in 0 this city trying to make arrangements for a resumption gf business. As a general thing, their conduct is manly, frank gnd sensible, p calculated to win the confidence and respect of every generous and just oommnnity.? .Nine in every ten of them have been utter3 }y ruined by the rebellion. Most of them ?f cast their fortunes into the struggle for a - causa wbioh they belihved to be right, but e wbioh they see. and acknowledge to have e been fatally aqjl finally defeated. .They have lost position, influence, property, cbilQ dren, friends?everything which makes life e desirable. Under such circumptanoes, weak) men Bink down into abject despair, or drag i, out the rest of their lives in the safe obs scurity of foreign lands. The defeated a Southerners meet their oalamity in a more 1 manly style. They show in their defeat, as r they did in their straggle,?courage, des0 perate tenacity of. purpose, and that high spirited readiness to meet all the responsia bilities of their oonduot, which never fails e to command the respect of the world. e It may not seem wholly in keeping with * this courageous temper, that quite a num0 ber of these persons, on reading the speech 8 of Hon. Thad.. Stevens, have abandoned r i?: :?j lUtill UUOIUCOS prujcoto AUU guuo -MUUiC^Vlia* k coaraged. They. say they oannot faoe the ? desolation which bis plans propose for the Sooth. They cannot pot their farms again ' in order, dlear them of their ipoutnbrances, 8 rebuild their mined dwellings, plant fresh e crops and get a new start in life for their e children and themselves, with the prospeot, a at any moment, of seeing the whole swept a away by rntbless confiscation. They cannot e work with heart or hope while such s sword 8 is hanging over their heads. ? W.e oannot blame them for this feeling, bat the fear out which it grows seems to ns auite unwarranted. There is nothing either in the past- conduct-or the present temper of the North to justify the belief that any * such policy as-that recommended 'oy Mr. Stevens will be adopted. True,-Mr". S. is 1 a prominent and influential public man.? 1 His ripe age, his long experience in public '* life, and his position as official leader in * ^ie Hgn8Q of Representatives combine to ' give weight and importance to his views of public affairs. Bat as a public man he belongs rather to the past than the -future.? ' He is universally known to bo extreme in 2 all his views, sometimes to the verge of ec0 centricityj and while Congress and the 3 country always listen with attention and re" speet to his expression of them, they are e never allowed to shape, to any considerable 1 extent, the practical conduct of publio if-. * fairs. Mr. Stevens insisted throughout the last Congress that the Southern States and s people should be treated as alien enemies; t but Congress never ooncurred in his opinion, j r Tn the Baltimore Convention he urged the 9 exclusion of delegates from every Southern r State that had 'been. iD rebellion?but they f were admitted by a vote of two to one. So ' we. venture to predict that if Mr. Stevens - should introduce into Congress his last grand . scheme for a sweeping confiscation of South * era property, he will not get twenty Jive x votes in its favor. 3 President Johnson's speech to the Southa era delegation the other day, ought to re0 assure Southern men upon this point. His authority is certainly quite as high as that ' of Mr. Stevens, and bis influence upon the ^ course of legislation will be ten fold greater. * He assures the South, in the most ezplioit - an? emphatic terms, that they will not be J persecuted nor treated harshly?that their 1 welfare will be consulted?that their past ' sufferings have atoned for their past offences *' ?that we regard them as members of the 8 same great family, alienated and betrayed * j into fearful crimes for a time, but still f bound to us by ties of affection and to be 1 trusted and cherished upon their return to 3 the authority they have tried to overthrow. t This is the language of a generous and 3 magnanimous statesmanship, and it finds an * echo in the national heart The people of - the North are not revengeful. They have * never bated the South. Even intbb midst 8 of the war they have cherished hindly sen timents toward the people they were com> L polled to fight; and now that the war is a over, they have no thought or wish to crusn ' a fallen foe. For they know perfectly well that the people of the South moat come to b be their friends,?that as the nation is one, u so have all its people a common welfare,? >f only to be secured by oommon sentiments t of respect and of mutual regard. Nobody t anywhere, who has any just conception of g the duties and necessities of the immediate (. j future, dreams of stripping the already imit*! poverished people of theJSoutb, as a means e of promotin^an'd building.up the prosperil, j ty of the nation. The great mass of the r, Northern people, without regard to party, ir; will sustain, heartily and vigofously, the & policy of the President. They went into i.t the w^r reluctantly, but they have fought it ft out victoriously j and they accept the cxtirpation of slavery, the perpetuation of the d Union, the increased" consideration and rets speot which we enjoy abroad, and the self: reliunoe and courage whioh it has developed iO at home, as an equivalent for the sufferings, r.1 burdens and sacrifices it has involved. And much V we detest their cause, we have n< reason to be ashamed of the manner ii which the people of the Sooth evinced thei: dovotion to it. Their courage, their devo tion, their readiness to saerifioe everything dear to them in its behalf, do honor to thi American name. We trnst the people o( the Soath wil prosecute, with eontinned energy and oonfi denoe, .their efforts to renew the prosperity of the Southern States. Let them heed th< President's warning and pay no regard U speeches that may seem to breathe a spiny of hatred, and revenge. They have- tbeii fate in their own hands. If they will. tak< hold promptly and properly of the task the awaits them^appreoiate aright the new re lations, politioal, industrial and social j whiol the war has brought about, and aot witi wise reference to the. necessities which thos< ohanged delations have created, they ear easily disarm all distract and oommand thi hearty and effective sympathy of all. thi people in the Northern States.

Circular No. 13, of July 28, 1865 from this Bureau, and all portions of cir oulars from this Bureau conflicting with th< provisions of this circular, are hereby re cinded. 2. This Bureau has charge of such tract of lands within the insurrectionary Statei as shall have been abandoned, or to whiol the United States shall have aoquired title by confiscation or sale, or otherwise, and m suob lands now in its possession shall be surrendered to any claimant except as here after provided. 3. Abandoned lands are defined'in sec tion 2 of the act of Congress approved JnJj 2d, 1864, as lands the lawful owner whereol shall Jbe voluntarily absent therefrom and engaged either in armB or otherwise in aiding or encouraging the rebellion. 4. Land will not be regarded as confiscated until it has been condemned and sold by decree of the United States Court-foi the district in which the property may be found, and the title thereto thus vested it the United States. 5. Upon this appearing satisfactorily tc any Assistant Commissioner that aojr property under his oontrol is not abandoned a* above defined, and that the United State* acquired no title to it by confiscation, sale or otherwise, he will formally surrender il to toe autnorizea claimants, promptly re porting bis action to the Commissioner.

They will set a part so-much of said lands as is neoessarj for the immediate uae-of the loyal refugees and freed men, being careful to eeleot foi this purpose these lands which most clearlj fall under the control of this Bureau, which selection must be submitted tothe Commis missiouer for his approval. The speoifk division of lands to set apart into lots, and the recital Or sale thereof, according to seo tion 4 of the law establishing the Bureau, will be completed as soon as practicable and reported to the Commissioner. 7. Abandoned lauds held by this Bureau may be restored to owners pardoned bj the President, by the Assistant Commissioners, to whom applications for such restoration should be forwarded, so far as practicable, through the superintendents of the districts in which the lands were situated.

Considerable exoitement has arisen in Jer sey City in consequence of groans, yells and unearthly sounds said to emenate from a church in the upper part of Jersey City for ; some nights past. The first known of these myaterious sounds was some ten days sinoe, when the pastor had oooasion to return tc the ohurch after evening servioes to procure some manuscript which he bad forgotten and had ocoasiou to make use of. The edifice had been closed for the Dight, and war in total darkness. The New York Timts says ;. i cc Hn cntorln/* Ko I?f n nriof/aVt fn rvtllrlfi V" VUWA&Ugy UU It V S? UIHbUUJ UV gytVkv him along the aisle; and when approaching the altar at the rear, his attention was at. tracted by.a low moaning sound, wbioh gradually increased and at the same time drew nearer to him. To this he at first paid no heed, presuming it to be the antios oi miecbievoas boys; bat presently the sounds changed to seemingly unearthly yells, shrieks and groans, from innumerable invisible beings oluBtgring around in close .proximity to his person, until finally bis feelings were so wrought upon that he felt impelled to leave the building with all possible haste. The above are substantially the facts of the oase as stated by the pastoi of the church to Chief of Police MoManue after reports were beginning to be circulated in the neighborhood that the ohuroh was hannted, and requesting that the matter might be kept as quiet as possible, believing that in a few days at furthest he would bo able to unravel the myptery and satisfactorily explain the cause of the Bounds. Since that time the oburoh edifice has been thoroughly examined, inside and out, bu( without unravelling the mystery; and mean% 31 time thesedismaland unearthly yellsand > ones tire heard almost every night. A r conpleof nights Jinoe, Chief of Polioe Mo Mannas, accompanied by Aid Doyle and 5 Detective E. L. McWillliams, determined 3 to pay a Visit to tberepdrted haunted obnrob. They aooordingly^rocured 'the keysand i 1 entered the edifice, shortly after midnight. _ i "Taking their position in the oentre of 1 the ohnreh in totil daidchess, they had re- i mained there bat'a short tame when they I beard a low moaning sound, apparently pro- i oeeding from the vioinity of the pulpit, which gradually grew louderand came nearer until it finally culminated around their i heads into howls, yeHs^frgroans, &o., and > then gradually died away as it came. Af- 1 tor a few moments of pacfeot silenoe, Chief i MoMantius drew f?m his pocket a revolver; loaded with blank cartridges, and fired t one obarge, when, almoet instantly jBe edifice seemed filled with thousands of infnri. j 'A. t:j ' : 3 HMJU UBHlVUD,.UJ?n?>*g ?u? uiUDk U1UBVUB UUIses and apparently bent on tearing them to pieees.

The officers. then crossed the street to tfee eppiote walk, -and remained >| there until daylight, bat heard no farther ' soands, and-made no disooyeriesi. which would tend to explain the mystery. The .1 ! people residing in the immediate neighbor- ,1 hood olaim to have been disturbed at all' ,j hours of the nigh t bythese.demoniac sounds,' | 9 and a nflmber of them-have determined to , } leaye the neighborhood." ?r 1 > EX-GENERAL MANSHELD LOVELL.? > We have been amtned by a report, which ' seems to be pertipapiously insisted upon by , - the Northern papers?that Gen. Lovell ha^ * beoome an associated editor of the {&w York Daily Neios?that' he is now busily ! ' engaged clipping, extracts with editorial ' : scissors, preparing monstrous narratives of 1 I horrid murders, beautiful burglaries, iqge nious forgeries and sublime swindlingsf^t. We are somewha? reluctant to spoil a good ' story, but as we are in the bfcbft of shaking hands with General Lovell every third day r in the week, and had the pleasure, yester> day, of crashing a cap of Madeira with 1 him, we faitttt insist that he is not, and ever has been, sfeissors-clip'per or sensation > editor in dby of the news offices of the ! -great Gothamite city. So far from it, the 1 General is now absolutely playing Cincinna> tus in his retirement. He forms it within 1 a few miles of as, and exhibits that beauti-' & fal bronze of complexion whioh no san has been ybtfonnd to hart; that proportion of frame and vigor of muaoie~whioh indicates ; the yoting farmer of thirty-five - and a del gree of litheness and agility whioh leaves * you no reason to-doabt.that he can readily, . as be boasts, take a tree after a coon or pos' sum, and climb with any rival in the land.
