cniLE.
As we anticipated in our summary .by laat mail,
the division on tho part of tho opposition has ter
minated in the re-election of Presidont Perez.
Tho number? havo not yot boon relumed from
all the districts, hut in the provine?-s of the largest
aud woalthieBt population ho has a triumphant
majority, so that nit* re-election is beyond all doubt.
There is a feeling of very general satisfaction that
Sr. Perez continues to occupy the presidential
chair. It may be truth that ho has uot hitherto
conducted the war, with sufficient zeal and spirit
to pl?aso the peuple, but it must never bo fogot
ten that the rights and liberties of tho citizen*-,
even in the most critical periods, have never once
beon infringed, and the Government afforded
every proor during tho oloction of their reaped
for tho purity and liberty of the suffrage.
From tho very able report by tho Minister of
Finance in the Chamber of Deputies, on the 28lh
ult., we learn that the efforts of tho Government
havo neither been i<o feeble nor so unremittod in
tho prosecution of tho war as many wero wont to
affirm. The purchase and equipment of anything
worthy tho name of naval torco is not the work of
a day, and allowing that the Executive had been
in funds, tliero was always very great danger and
risk in purchasing, as tue United States, no less
lhau the European powers, havo, over sinco tho
declaration of hostilities, preserved a strict neu
trality, and Spauish spies wero on the alert every
where to give information iu the event of any at
tempts being made to violate the neutrality laws;
but from the beginning the Government have had
to contend with unaucial difUoultiee, and to this
causo aloue is mainly to bo attributed tho position
of afhiirs. Notwithstanding tho many aud seri
ous obstacles, several large war ships havo boen
purchased, although tho funds to pay for and
maintain them aro yet wanting. Four of the
most powerful, however, havo boon obtained, aud
their arrival may be looked for boro shortlv.
These, added to the allied ? et, will form a squad
ron of which the South American Republics may
well bo proud.

CENCE IN THE RESULT OF THE WAU-THE I'UAYEIt
OF THE SOUTHERN PEOPLE FOR PEACE IN THE
UNION-CONDITION OF THE CROPS, tC.
A correspondent of tho Now York World, who
has journeyed from tho city of Gotham to Natchez?
Miss., by rail, through Virginia, Goorgia, Ala
bama, Tinncaaeo and Miaaiaeippi, write? tho fol
lowing truthful account, which will be fouud uuu
?u tilly in tor eat i ug :
THE TEOPLE.
At every station, aud ovorywhoro I havo
travelled and conversed among thom, their fuces,
their words and tho very touo of their voices con
vey tho improasion of a pooplo thoroughly dis
heartened. I have yet to hoar a singlo vindictive
expression among thom, or to boo it singlo ovi
donco of a thought or ever again appealing to
arms. Cliarlos Sumnor and Ina fanatical con
stituents may blatantly thunder tho contrary from
tho halla of tlio national Capitol, and try, with tho
theatrical flourish in which they aro so much
moro accomplished than in tho use of tho sword,
to Aro the Northern heart with a beliof that the
South are meditating deeda of diro and atrocious
veugeance. If they know of what they speak in
theso representations, they know that thoy aro
uttering the most absurd and monstrous ialao
booda that over disgraced tho comieda of tho na
tion, with the hope of irritating tho South to mad
ness aud instigating another war, to fatton in safe
aeclusiou upou the spoils of uuutterahlo miseries
and devastations. Tho universal feeling hero is,
"we accepted the issue in good faith; we wero
then and aro now auxious for tho complete resto
ration of the Union; wo givo up forever everything
we have fought for, without a rcBorvation; we
only beg to be permitted to live in poaco anil try
to recovor from the ruin and desolation that war
has brought to our cities, our plantations and
flreaidos.
THE CROPS.
Tho corn promises well, but tho wheat that haB
been gathered has not proved so good as usual,
on account o? the vory heavy rains in tho earlier
season. The cotton orop in Tennessee, Northern
Mississippi, Alabama aud Goorgia, is almost a
complete failure from the same cause, and the
uaual coldness of the season. Tho plants are
soattered and dwarfed ; many of the flelda in bloom
where the cotton, which should be threo or four
foot high, U not much more than a foot. Many
Northern men who invested in working the plan
tations will not recover tho money expended, and
very many will looe uoarly tho full amount.
THE RAILROADS.
Through the ontire route, from Alexandria, Va.,
to Momptiis, tho roads generally woro torn up,
atationa burned, and cars, engines and bridges
destroyed during tho war. In many places pieces
or railroad were subsequently repaired, to make
them available for military purposes, but gene
rally left at the close o? the war in a dilapidated
coudition. To repair them and open them again
to the travelling public has been a work of no
small magnitude, and requiring no small amount
of capital and energy. To Bay that tho roads ft ora
Eastern Tonnesseo west aro yet in wrotcliod if not
dangoroue condition comes short of the truth.
MONUMENTS OF WAR.
All along the ( ntiro lino of which I write are
visible evidences of tho great conflict. Hero a
long chain or crumbling earthworks and forts
with decaying abattis, where tho fierce tide of
battlo raged fur days, and lort tho ground thickly
strewn with slaughter; here, thickly dotting tho
?iii?.;? or the way, high stockades pierced for mus
ketry, where uiauy a skirmish has taken place;
hero a bridge erected upon charred timbers that
totter and croan as the train slowly pasaoa over,
und give one an involuntary shudder as ho casts
his eye down to tho rocky channel or the Btroain
far bonoath; there, scorched and crumbling chim
neys, the naked monuments of buildings that
have been swopt away in the flumes of war's kin
dling; and there a hillside thickly dotted with
mounds, where Federal anil Confederate sleep
aide by side on the very spot where they struggled
aud fell.

Hon. Alexander H. Stephens has sent the fol
lowing letter to Hon. M. Blair. The letter wau

that the pooplo should know the real temper of

Crawfordsville, GAa, July 23, I860.
Hon. Montgomery Blair, Wasltington, D. C:
Dear 8ib:-Your letter of tho 17th inst. ia beforo
me. I thank you heartily for it. No man i?i the
United Ht ate? did oroould moro cordially approve
and endorse the objects of the proposed Union
Convention at Philadelphia, as I understood them,
than I did, and yet. from considerations of expe
diency, I doubted tho propriety of mo taking ac
tive part in it. I was also in doubt, to some ex
tent, whether, with other views on tho part of
those who made the call, the words wero not so
phrased in the call as to exclude all who occupied
a similar position to my own, and trom other con
siderations as those which had occurred to me.
Your letter relieves me from the last class of
doubts; but those of the other class still
exist, notwithstanding your strong views to
the contrAry. Individually, my whole aoul is
enlisted in the cause of a speedy, full, and
perfect restoration of the Government under '
tho Constitution, and its permauency under
that Constitution, as it now stands. There ia noth
ing within my power that I ara not willing cheer
fully to do to effeot and accomplish that end. In
deed, you will exc?seme in saying it, but it is the
truth, I would be willlug to ofior up my life itself
if by so doing this great result could be obtained'
and peace, union, harmony, prosperity, happiuesa'
and constitutional liberty bo thereby secured to the
millions now living, and the untold millions here
after to live on this continent. There are many
perennal embarrassments or difficulties in the way
of my going to the Convention. Theso I alludod
to before, but I am rosolved to be there if
I can. In no evont shall it be ever truthfully
Baid of me that I failed to do everything
in. my power to eave the country and its institu
tions. I did in 1860 exert my efforts to their .
utmost extent to avoid tho late most lamontablo :
war, and to Have the Union on constitutional prin
ciples, without a conflict of arma. This I did, too, i
while many of those now so clamorous for what they
call the Union cause, were giving encouragement j
at least to the extreme men at the South, by
clearly and docidodly intimating if not fully ex
pressing, a perfect willingness on their part that i
the Union might slide if the people of the South ,
ao willed it. I was evon taunted with endeavoring <
to hold our peoplo on to a Union that was no <
longer cared for by leading mon of the dominant ,
party at the North. I withotood these tannts even
when I knew, or was informed truly, as I believed,
that there waa an organized body of men in Sa- )
vannah to seize the Castora House, Fort Pulaski,
Uki in the case the State did not secede. Ali
.his I stated to you, and to which you-allude in J
?-our letter before me; nor should I havo any hesi- I
.ancy in atating it to tbe publio if any publio }

Friday, July 13, 181.0. f
The last letter I wroto spoke strongly ot the
nccessilv of throwing all the people South, hut
especia Hy tho blacks, upon thoir own resources in
all ror-pocta, simply giving thom protection and
encouragomont. U tilla matter is carried too far,
touching protection, tho remedy will bo as bad as
tho disease; for the moment you touch upon what
comes within tho range of oommon prudonco
they muat bo loft to themsolvos, or you hinder
tho growth of all scir-relianco, which can como
only through hard oxperionce. Tho freedmen
havo lost more monoy and growth by fore
seeing orders, issued by way of protection from
anticipated evils which can only bo avoided
by experience and prudence, than in any other
w'ay. But what is greatly ueedod for tho protec
tion of white? as well a? blacks is a system by
whioh all liens on proporty, whether roal OBtate
or personal, should bo registered, bo aa to estab
lish priority claim? in favor of bona fide creditor?
without knowledge of previous pledges of proper
ty. As it is now, a man can pledge his property
half a dozen timoB over, as ia occasionally done,
which works not only losa to honest creditors, but
corruption as well. It is of grave importance
that if a porson has obtained credit on his cotton
crop, or any other spocies of property, the extent
of tho claim and tho man who is responsible
should be publicly known. Of course snob a pro
vision should bo found among tho civil regulations
of the State, and may bo it is; but if bo, it ib at
preaent undor impracticable conditione. N w
see, ae matters stand, how tho thing works.
Such is tho danger or crediting freedmen on their
crops, that, to my certain knowledge, all mer
chante or standing who keep regular stores
in town, and make tbe Bale or merchandize
their busmen?, havo ?tondily rofused to givo cre
dit because of the losses of last year. But, as I
stated in my last lotter, those freedmen who had
food advanced last year ou their crops, whether
by Governmout or traders, are back again this
\ear with tenfold more want and importunity for
the samo credit, ready to plodgo crop or land, and
at any disadvantage. Of course, in every commu
nity, there aro mon who are ready to speculate,
whatever the opportunity, and who. when thoy
tako risltB, tako advautago accordingly, their only
object being to put monoy in the pocket, no matter
who i? cheated. Such wero the mon who, last
yoar, cheated in weight, cheated in making change
in tho purchase ot cotton, choatod in every way
thoy could, even to colluuion with the blacks,
in tho wholesale stealing ot cotton, which
was carried on boro, last year, under the in
efficient regime of General Saxton. And
such aro "the men who, this year, are
bleeding the blacks profusely, or, at least,
have made ample preparation to that end. They
proceed by giving no cr?ait except on written
pledges or cotton or land. 80 far that is what
every ono ought to do, or at least it is consistent
with thorough integrity. But now, thoy say, wo
take great riaks, and must charge accordingly;
and so, when hominy can bo purchased tor $. the
two bushel sack, they charge $8, or $1 the pi-ok,
and other things of course in proportion. Well,
what ia the next step ? Why, very earnest plead
ings go up to tho Assistant Commissioner, Gen.
Scott, for Bnch arrangements as shall make
freedmon abide by their contracts. Well, that ia
right; but it would also be right ii General Scott
ahould take it iuto his hoad to revise theso con
tracts slightly. Or ir thoy charge according to
risk, let them tako tho risk. You seo it ia good
buaiuesB to buy up land of freedmen at the low
pricos now ruling, with hominy at H the peck.
They Uko to have theso contracts niado se
cure. Then soo what a premium this puta
upon stealing. Here is a darkey who has pledged
his Jand. His debt muat bo paid or his land
goes. His debt is twice na large as he expected,
on account of the high chars? s. Buch men will
ho almost euro to havo too little cotton. Their
laud and homo are dear to them, for they are
theil all. They will steal to make the amount oi
cotton good. Tho accursed rationing system,
which first got him into the habit of living beyond
his means on what is yet to bo earned, Is the
cause of all this, and it will serve the whites in
1 tho samo way. Now, it is folly, the worst of folly,
to protect any man from the results of a bad bar
risk upon w&__r_. -.iMU?_^.;iure{Sfi*f|iB?- ??fe
against which ho makes extra, not to say extor
iKmate, charges. Tho only healthy action is to
prevent tho initiation of such a bargain as much
as maybe. It would seem to me that until tho
?tate ?hall aotintho matter, all centres or trade
like Beaufort ahould have a registry established
connectod with the Bureau, for the registering
of all claims against property of the nature
01 Jiens, mortgagoe, aud the like, together
with tho __h?tarjcfls of the contract upon which
such claims are founded : or, if no contract, a
etatotuent of the origin of the debt. Substantially
such a system was established under the Military
Governorship, but perished with it, I think. Then
euch claims as tho following would come to tho
light, viz : a freedman wishes to borrow $20; he
binds himself-I am informed it ia an actual case
-to rurniali for it in the fall 300 pounds 80a Ieland
stone cotton, which bringo the cotton to the lend
er at 6?c. por pound stone, which is about 38Jo.
per pound ginned-a case where a given amount
being statod no risk is run. Still, if freedmen,
under knowledge of what they are about, will
make such bargains, thoy must be allowed to aud
suffer the consequences. But certain it is that
the regular merchants established iu trade hore
are mainly out of this business of fraud and over
reaching; and certain it is that a largo maas of
freodmen are on the rapid way to abject worth
lossuOBS from food given or supplied on credit,
and from a praotice of charity in everv respect,
not strictly applied in cases of most absoluto need.
The only remedy is to throw all relentlessly upon
their own resources, without distinction of color,
and gather the roal paupers into poor-houses.

which Is made by this lamentable occurrence to
