VOn Monday evening last Co. " E" 56th N. Y: Vet. Yols. arrived.. upon the train from Newborry, to occupy tho town as a garrison. The Company is under the command of Lieut. John S. T?mpkins, who is also in command of the Post. Lieut. C. B^-Newkiek is Assistant Pro? vost Marshal. We learn from these officers that the purpose of their viait.here is to preserve order, settle disputes and difficulties, rati? fy contracts between freedmen and their employees, administer , tho oath of allegi? ance, receive reports from tho?e who are in possession of any^government property, &e. * The men composing the garrison are i quartered in Masonic Han," lately used as as hospital. The office for the transac? tion of all business is in-the socond story of Granite Row, immediately over J. D. M. Dobbin's, Fstab'ishment. * . ?????K East Tennessee Railroads.?Weloarn . that regular passenger trains commenced running from Knoxville to ?Tonesboro, 98 milos on Wednesday the 25th ultimo. Special trains convey passengers and freight to Carter's Depot, twelve miles further, which is tbc^present termination of tho road. This leaves only twenty miles of the road' to be finished to Bristol,! and there are only two bridges to repair - to complete tho whole. The Virgmia and Tennessee railroad, from Bristol to Lyhcbburg and the Orange and Alexan? der railroad, from Lynchburg to Alexan? dria, opposite Washington, "are nearly completed. -.-o Clement C-^C:lay.?Clement C. Clay was taken from his casemate a few morn ings since,, and, accompanied by the offi? cer of tho guard and two soldiers, was al? lowed to promenade the broad and shad? ed grounds withhi tho walls of the fort. The Philadelphia Inquirer's correspond? ent, in a letter dated June 30th,, says the pr?theriade was kept up for half an hour. The prisoner wa% allowed to rest when he .chose, ? and seemed greatly to enjoy this summer morning's walk. This re? creation was allowed Mr. Clay, by Gen. Miles, on tho representations "of Iiis phy? sician, Dr. Bancroft. Air- and cxeroiso will very soon restore the prisoner to full end vigorous hoa'lth. -? Texas Gubernaiional Election.?B. II. Epperson, of Clarksville, Red River county, Texas, has been nominated by the ' Union citizens of Noithern Texas for Governor. Tho regular election comes off on the first Mondy in August next. Mr. Epperson has issued an. address to the people of the State accepting the nomina? tion and announcing his 3etermjnation to * run. - The Manchester (N. H.) Mirror says that there never was so great a demand for female operatives skilled in the busi? ness of working in cotton mills as now. The Amoskeag and Stark Mills would start, up double the present amount of work if they had plenty of weavers' and other help, and all the other mills are ?h?rt of the same class of labor. Death of Dr. John W. Lewis.?With eincero regret, says the Atlanta Intelli? gencer of the 16th inst.", we announce to our readers the death of Dr. John W. Lewis, which sad event occurred after a very- short sickness, at 1 i 3 residence in Bartow county, on Tuesday last, the 11th inst. The Jefferson West Mississippi Bulletin says that the "corn crop bids fair to be unusually large in all the counties of this State'east of the Trinity." There have been plentiful rains'.

By order of Brev't Brig. C. H/YAN WYCK, Commanding District. Henri B. Lo?mis, 1st Lt. & Adi't 56 N. T.T. V. & Provost Marshal, The Eve op Battle.?It would be dif? ficult to convey to tho mind of an ordina? ry reader anything like a correct idea of the state of feeling which takes possossion of a "man waiting, for tho commencement of a battle. In the first plac^.time ap? pears to move on leaden wings?every minute seems, an ijge, every hour a day. ?Then there is a strange commingling of levity and-seriousness within him?a lev? ity which prompts him to.laugh, heknows not why, and a seriousness which urges "him-ever a^oii to lift lip a mental praj-er to the throne of grace. Qa such occasion little or EG Conversation passes. Tho privates generally lean on their firelocks,-tho officers on their swords, and few words, except-moncsylcbles in reply to questions, are spoken. On these occa? sions, too, the faces of the bravest change their color, and the limbs of the most res? olute tremble?not with fear, but with anxiety?-'whilst -watches are consulted ? till tho individuals who consult them grow weary of the employment. On the whole, it is a higher excitement, and darker and deeper agitation, than 4iny other jn-human life?nor can he be said to feel all that man is capable of feeling who liaa not felt it. -:-v Masonic Funeral Procession.?We learn that a Masonic funeral procession, in. honor of their late brother. Capt. M. A. Sullivan, deceased, will ?b had by Oman Lodge, No. 69, A.\ F.\ M.-., Cedar Falls, Ggeenvilh; District, on the Fifth Sunday of this month. Tho procession will form at Mrs. Nancy Sullivan's, at 91; A. M. and march cO * Lebanon Church, where a Funernul Sermon will bo preach? ed by the Rev. Mr. McSwain, of the M. E. Ghurch. The Lodges of A.-. F.\ M.-.'at Green? ville, Anderson, Williamston nnd Laurons, are invited to attend and Join in proces? sion, each as a body. Tho Chapters of R.\ A/. M.\ at Greenville, Laurens and Anderson are likewise invited. A Special Communication of Ornan Lodge will bo held on the Saturday pre? vious to the ftineral, for the purposo of working in the degrees and attending to business. Brethren from other Lodges fraternally invited to attend. [Greenville Enterprise. -?>-? The War and its Victims.?Official re? turns in tho War office at V'^shingtou show that tho "doaths in the army since the war broke out, so far as heard jfrom, with the estimates mado from these re? turns not yet handed in, including the prisoners, etc., will aggregate about 225, U00. . These aro tho deaths alone. From this number we may deduct some forty, thousand on account of ordinary mortal? ity had war not existed, and then have I left. 185,000 dead. These are thedo?u-?iK ly on ooo side. If we suppose a mortality of 175,000- on tho Confederate side, we have a total of-fp0,800 who have perish? ed in tho Avar- Supposing among the wounded and diseased of tho survivors that one half are permanently disabled, we must add at least 600,000 more to the number-of victims,'making a total of over, one million of human beings whose death or uselcssness while living may be ascrib? ed to this war. - From Mississippi.?The Jackson News, of Thursday, has the following para? graphs: ? Governor Williarn L. Sharkey, Judge William Yergcr and our handsomo young friend Colonel Jones S. Hamilton, who has just been appointedU. S. Marshal for the Stato of Mississippi, returned from Washington City on Tuesday last. They are all looking well, and apparently iu fino health. Gov. Sharkey has determined to reinstate all the old-officers of the State from Probate Judge "down by executive appointment. Wo are convinced that this action will be entirely satisfactory to our people, and it saves the government an immense amount of petty annoyances. ? .-<<? Newspaper Reconstructed.?The Ral oigh Progress is practically carrying out its ideas of Union and fraternization. It now employs compositors who have serv? ed in tho Union and Confederate armies; has on its editorial staff one gentleman who has served for years in the national ranks, another, who for years belonged to the army of Gen. Leo. A live Yankee presides over its news department, and a " Johnny reb" is in chargo of the local. The best feeling, it says, prevails among those late officers and soldiers, who, a few months ago, had they come in contact, would have tried to cut each other's throats, but now handle no "shooting sticks " that are not harmless in their dis? charge.?Exchange! , -o? Hon. Pierre Soule, late of Louisiana, has opened a law office in the City, of Mexico. He has lived tho past year, on a plantation near Puebla, but found re? tirement unsuited to his active and in? triguing nature, and moved to the Capi? tol, -vidiere he will bo likely to take part invMaximillian's Government. -<> The Petersburg Express says tho month of Juno was the hotest experienced in Virginia for many years. During thirty days the thermometer did not fall below eighty-six ; and most of the "time it was among the nineties. Head Quarters .Military District Western S. .FOURTH SEPARATE BRIGADE, New-berry, July 15, 1865. GENERAL ORDERS, f . No. S. : f . , I. -The caso of Joh#B. Givniph, by his own'Statement, shows that he had a con? versation with*\-frcedman, on his planta? tion, about the contract, who wished to consult a United "States officer to ascer? tain if it was correct, and so told Mr. Glymph. Glymph was indignant that tho colored man should not confide in him, and, when he started for this place, seiz? ed a shot gun and deliberately-fired, the content? entering the arm and back of the negro. As Glymph has been several days in jail, it is ordered that he be released on executinga bond, with sufficient secur? ity, to keep the peace and appear for trial when called. II. Wm. Lemons isa clerk in a hotel at this place. Barrel Mayes, whom no one would suppose to be anything But Anglo-Saxon, has a taint of African blood. Some time ago he escaped from >his mas? ter, went to Columbia, volunteered as-a soldier, under tho name of John Brown, in a South.Carolina Regt., was wounded in the battle of^e Wilderness, captured, sgat North, and finally returned as a.pris xroer of war. Lemons makes the justification for as? saulted battery, that Mayes came into the hotfel and requested him to take charge of his carpet bag, passing it over the counter. The next day he roturned, procured his carpet bag and went on his way. By some means Lemon? ^earne^ that V*j$8 was tainted Airican 'olOod; ho beca^S enraged, that a negro should ask him to do any service' follow? ed un til fie found, and commenced beat? ing him. As there is not the shadow of an excuse for his conduct he must remain in jail un? til a competent court can punish him as he deserves. III. John-Whitman, charged by afrced woman with beating he*, was' arrested, and on examination states that he was in? formed the woman was insolent to his wife, the particulars or provocation for which he did not ascertain; but ho took the woman, stripped her naked, tied her down, and then with i\ leather strap gave 25 stripes. This'is clearly a, case of as? sault and battery, and would bepunrehed as such excoptthat Mr. Whitman alleges that ho would never haVo punished thye woman, had he not supposed Ife had a right so to do, from the fact that Capt. Murray, of the 25th Ohio Vol., lately com? manding at this place,approved contracts with the power inserted to the employer to punish, and also told them, in numer? ous instances, that they could buck and gag and tie up by the thumbs whenever necessary. This is tho excuse given for many Outrages coraaiitted upon the color-, ed people in this section of tho State. That there many be no excuse for future offpnees the Brev't Brig. GenTComd'g, is? sues this Order, directed to all the Dis? tricts in his command,'viz: Lancaster, Fairfield, Chester", York, Union, Newber? ry, Edgefield, Abbeville, Laurens, Spar tanburg, Greenville, Anderson and Pick, ens. Why an officer ih the Unitcd'States ser? vice should approve contracts with such a dangerous delegation of power, and in ad? dition authorize tho- exercise of punish? ment so brutal and inhuman as seldom to be used in tho army, is very remarkable. The contract said the punishment should be krwfuk Yet too--man t>0 stupid but knows that the lawful, p&iishment which slavery imposes cannot now be allowed to scourgo the naked back and limbs of free men and women. Slavery and the lash are synonymous; you cannot separ? ate one from tho other in the mind of the African. Yet a girl whose insolence may: havo been produced, as sometimes U is, by violent and threatening languago, or iiisolcncc, if you please, from the white person, who was of size to bo held in Mr. Whitman's hand, is tied and beat on the supposition that it was right, becauso a United States officer had delegated such power. The colored people aro told they arc free, yet under tho shield of the Uni? ted States Government, they are 'flogged some of them as they never were before. There arc many personE who. feel all the bitterness which the rebellion engendered, and while brooding over the mortification of dofeat, loss of property, and emancipa? tion of slaves, exhibit the cruel measures of wreaking vengeancc-trpon tho innoeoftt and helpless fr'eedman. Alter the publication of this order, like offences will be severely punished. You have?sworn to-sustain the proclamation of the President, consequently tho abolition of slavery. Such conduct you will readi? ly sec is a violation of your parole, a for? feiture of your oath. Nearly all tho diffi? culties attending the immediate emancipa? tion of so large a class, arrd.thc transition from slave to free labor,'could be removed, entirely, or greatly mitigated by a cheer? ful acquiesence on the part of all. Some very foolish, if not very wicked men, are contributing not only to their own injury, but that of tho entire State. By disregarding'the fights of the freed men they con temn and despise the author? ity of the United States, and render nec? essary tho presence of military power, to prcvont that which they ought not to do, accomplish that they ought to effect To day the spirit of rebellion with some is strong.' Tho spirit of rebellion against the emancipation of slavery, rebellion against tho rights freedom grants to all, without regard to color or rank. No one can de? ny that many are believing slavery will not be destroyed by a refusal of the States to amend the constitution. Many, are striving to embarrass the system of frco labor, with a view to show the world that slavery ought not to be abolished; also to mako the condition of the- - freedmen miserable, so they sliould feel that their condition was preferable in slavery to freedom. Another fact is evident, that the freedmen have no eonfidence in their former mustere.' They look upen them as those through whom ibr years they have been held in servitude, and who they fear would lose no ojmortunity to remand them back to slavery. With these facts conceded, the course of tho former master is plain. The dogma of State rights as you understood the fa? tal and bloody delusion of secession, taught from your earliest infancy; slavery, with which you have been reared, from tho cradle, havo. in consequence of your own acts, been forever destroyed. They are dead, with no raoro hope of. resurrection 4 than a separate Confederacy, "buried be- 3 n?ath the ocst blood of the republic, and ? amidst the graves of hundreds of thou- < sands whom tht nafTon will mourn for ! years. You put in.ppril your own ins^i- i tutions and your own country to destroy this republic, and failed; accept now the i fruifs-of thorcbellion, bitter though they be, and carry out the terms*of 'your stir- ' render and allegiance in the spirit ofchiv alrie men. . Do not, because you may be distant from a military post, visit upon the harmless and. unoffending negro the hostilities and resentments you feel against the United States. Howcr obnoxious it may be, every man is free and must be trusted as suqh ; that done, the whole is accomplished', andnenr ly every obstaclo removed. You have beon for years learning the folly of resis'-'' tance to the Government and have been almost ruined. Surrender now at the out? set all prejudice against universal liberty. Your owh?iappiness and prosperity de? mand it. iiineourgc tho' sj-stem of free labor. Develope its resources, and the' waste placc3 will blossom once more, and grass grow green on battle, plai Ms. Your own welfare depends on the welfareof the, colored ra<:c. Without Iiis labor your fields Will not'be cultivated, your wealth not increase. When you make his condi? tion miserable, it reacts and entails the same upon yourself. Treat him kindly. Learn him by your acts that you consider him free and desire not to enslave him again, and wy?y resto:c his confidence. ^jLiter fo'?ir 3'ears of bitter war, after you . , iiau exhauefed-aUthe resourced bf-'a- migh? ty section, tho prowess of a brave people, you ask that .we may be lenient, forgiving, and not exasperate your people. What you ask will bo granted. The Govern? ment of tho United States, its people, its army, every officer and soldier will treat you kindly. Iu return they ask that what ?is meted out to^ca who havo done so much of wrong'to yourselves and the re? public, ahaIl'be cheerfully by you meted out to a pcop!e# without guilt, who are free because they cannot avoid it,' who bave no? been even required to stretch forth the hand to take the proffered boo"n. A pcoplo faithful while you were absent in the army, neither destroying your lands, houses or family. Yet never known to withhold aid or betray the* path of the Union prisoner. You cannot <fxpect the sudden change " in your system-of labor to work smooth? ly first. The negro is to be learned 'to;. discharge the duties and obligations free? dom enjoins, as wejlas-atruo conception, of tho rights of guarantees:. lie is to be taught that thereIs^tio itn imunity from labor; that in the sweat of his brow must he earn his bread. That he is not entittled to any share of bis for- . mcr master's laud,. Or 'mules, or stock-. That he-lias 'only been given the title to himself; that he can no more be sold on the auction block. * That the wife cannot be taken from his bosom, the child from ?his side, and sold forever from his sightr. That vag-rancy, and idleness and theft will, be punished by tfie proper authority, be? cause they are crimes in all regulated so ciot3r. That while he can iwiko contracts he is bound by them when made, and must fulfil them. That he cannot throw down tho hoe and-abandon tho crop at pleasure,.but will be required faithfully to ?laborahd'dboy his employer iu all lawful Gommands, and not ab?ent himself from h'h? duty without permission. That he must be respectful irrrd;<.;otrrteous, that in-1 solencc is no moro to be tolerated from a freeman than a slave. Most of this instruction must be im par-, ted b}'. their former owners, now necessa? ry that they should learn to recognize the, rights a nd thereby be placed hvjt position more effectualiy to teach the duties of frecdmcrr. Man}- of-the freedmcn are declining to sign cor tracts unless they can be told'by proper authority they arc right. The power to punish*reserved in some con? tracts, find the continuance of th'srlash, have moved, thei* suspicion::, and they prefer vrorkingbn, leaving it to tire em? ployers to give them what they choose, for fear by making a mark on p per tisey will sign away some- of their liberty.? After consultation with citizen's <.f this section, it is proposed to form a basis <;!' re'm'ancration, in a general order, Ivbich will 'be just to all, fo apply wlioflc ho con? tract has been made,.-and Which, wil: ox tend to all the districts in this command. The many good citizens who are con? tributing, by word and deed, to have ac? cepted the new order of affairs, \v';M : ? serve well of their State, if tuey can so i mould public sentiment, that the same, spirit which leti to rebellion, four years I ago, may now be powerless to embarrass tbeir communities by thwarti-tVg the de? sign 'of the government. Courts will soon bcjestablishod in every district withn this command, as direVtad hy oVders from Dept.Headquarters, where testimony of witnesses will be taken with? out regar.1 to color. In order to assist this section of the State, to the extent of tho power, with a view of more fully explaining to all, tho jrkirrters and rreediacn, the nature of their rights and duties, the Brev't Brig.
