This Constitution, it is claimed, is not set aside by the Reconstruction BUL About nine tenths of the whites in the State will be disfran? chised if the District Attorney's grounds are sus? tained.

To the Editor of the Da?y Neust: DEAS SEE-Permit me through your very valua? ble paper, to call the attention of your friends, and the Episcopalians generally of Charleston, to the fact that we are striving to build at this place an Episcopal Church, and I trust our Charleston friends will give us that aid in the good work, they have so often rendered praiseworthy objects. In all communities, churches are essential for the peace, happiness and well-being of society, as well as pl aces who rowe tn ay congregate, and our children with ourselves hear tho word of God, and there offer up our prayers and givo praise to Him who has ever watched over those who strive to do that which, is pleasing in His sight. Our little town is rapidly growing, and those of us who are Epis? copalians have no place to worship ; and as our numbers are increasing, we deem it but right that we should, at least, have a Chapel, whore we may participate in our holy rites, and establish Sabbath {Schools for our children. I am sure the subject ia but to be brought before our friends, and their energies will be lent in our behalf, I4 would suggest mosY res? pectfully that one Sabbath be set apart in tjach Episcopalian Church in Charleston, and a col? lection be taken up for the purpose of building an Episcopalian Church st Florence, S. C. The sub? scriptions will be received-by Mrs. J. W. GAMBLE, Mrs. FRANCIS CHURCH, and other ladies here who have the whole matter at heart, and aro in charge, and I am sure will meet with their sincere acknow? ledgments and hearty thanks of al} interested. To the Presbyterian s here we are much indented for the kind, invitation to 'attend at all times worship with them, and for the hearty support io our be? half. Any amounts subscribed may be sent to the ladies herein mentioned. May the author of all good prompt our brethren in this matter, and may He watch over those who put their trust in Him. Yours truly and respectfully, AN EPISCOPALIAN. Tho Timber Trade. 2b the Editor of the Daily Nevos: Whenever a particular branch of oommerce and trade languishes and falls to be successful and profitable: when labor, properly bestowed upon any business proves unproductive, and that which was formerly remunerative must be abandoned, it is right and proper that we should look to tho causes which produce these results, and, if we may, correct them. Next to cotton, rice and naval stores, as pro? ducts of this State for commercial purposes, I be? hove may be classed the timber and lumber trade-indeed, I do nqt know but timber is, in fact, a more important article than rosin and turpentine. Statistics of these^branches of trado in Charleston, unlike those of other citios, m ike so meagre a showing that it is impossible to estimate the vaiue of tho trade. True, we see occasional weekly statements of cargoes shipped-)ut if we take the weekly quotations and compare them with actual sales (if one had the small-pox the other would be in no danger of catching it). It is a remarkable fact that timber in Charleston marko: has never brought its value as compared with tho market in a neighboring city ; and, more recently, the prices offered do not warrant its pro luetion at all. Whether the fact is that capitali? sts have combined with the millers against the lellers, or there is but little capital invested in his branch of trade, and BO there is established a nonopoly, we are unable to ascertain, but so it is ; umber men are driven to abandon the trade, or ind a better market. We are aware that the con lid between labor and capital continues as it ii way 8 has, and that capital still maint ams its ad? vantage, but in this age of revolutions it would >c surprising, if by concentration and combina ions of labor well directed capital shall not be breed to yield equal justice and fair remuneration 0 labor. There is no reason why timber at another port, is easily reached, with but trifling additional ex jensGs, should always command a price nearly .00 per cent., above Charleston market. I am .ware that various reasons have been assigned rhy this is so. It has been said that as large .hips cannot be loaded in Charleston as at Savan iab ; but I am told that is not so, the entrance at Charleston being equally acceptable with her sister 1 ty. We are told, also, of differences in measure nent and inspection, which accounts for the dif? ference in price. There may be, and probably is, lomething in these ; but if our system of inspec ion and measurement is faulty, why not correct hem, and establish a standard equal to our neigh? bors, net encourage the cutting and bringing to narket, of inferior timber, and then to take advantage of the fault, to reduce the price to a joint so low as to bankrupt every man who is dar ng enough to embark in the business. The truth s that measuring timber in Charleston is mere ?umbuggery, but the charges are a feeling reality; indas for inspection, there is literally none. I jresume the measurer and inspector is elected by -our City Council, and that being elected or ap? pointed there is no further responsibility. It strikes me that these matters should come within he supervision of the Board of Trade; at all events, lhere is in all this timber trade a subject to which [ desire to call its particular attention. I under? stand that body to have been created for the purpose )f giving character and tone to all commercial trans ictions, and so far as its peculiar province may ex lend, to enquire into and correct all such evils as nay continue to prevail, either as the result of following out some old-fashioned course of trade or by trammelling a particular branch of business, mob as this, with petty expenses and ill performed duties, thus destroying the value of honest industry. If capital persists in combinations against labor; if trade is encum? bered with a host of trifling expenses; ii a mar? ket has only a nominal standard of requirement as to quality, and then takes advantage of its own wrong-doing; if honest industry cannot find its reward in Charleston market, then labor must direct its products into another channel, where it is sure and certain to meet ito reward. The City of Charleston is now setting out in a new race for commercial power and influence. It will not do, I think, to follow up the old narrow, irregular, ill-digested plan of building railroads in distant States, to the damage of ho xe trade and home industry-however that may be, the timber cuiters will, most assuredly, seek their interests wherever it may be found. The best market, tak? ing all things into consideration, will command the trade, even though we are obliged to go out of the State to find it More of this here sf tor. TIMBER CUTTER. Tkie New Torie Prese on tue Attorney? General's Opinion. The following are extracts from our New York exchanges of Monday, referring to the Attorney General's opinion as to the powers of the military commanders in the South : [From the Tribune.] Above all-and here we approach the crime of the opinion-this is not the construction intended by Congress, and. accepted by the Administration and the country, in this respect the At? torney-General is dishonest. He is a par? tisan endeavoring to proparo the country ror a great wrong. We are al raid we cannot trust the President He seems to have the fatal facility of blundering, of getting himself and hi8 friends into trouble, of bringing peril to the country. Nothing seems to annoy him so much as peace. We believe he means, if he dares, to stnko a blow at the reconstruction policy of Congress, and bring up from the pit of sin and iniquity the shameless "policy" by which he sought to deprive a race of ito dearly-earned rights. We must show him that he dare not Congress should assemble in July and address it? self again to reconstruction, We must make thia bul so plain that even Stanbery may understand it, and so comprehensive that the President cannot escape its execution. We regret that the Admin? istration has forced another issue upon the conn try. We must promptly meet it [From the Time*.] We can only repeat the hope, we have more than once expressed, that the President will not follow this advice. If he acta upon it at all. it can only be as advice,-for as we have.sought to show in another article, it has upon him no binding au? thority whatever. Whatever may be the cogency of the te :hnical reasoning of the Attorney-General (and we confess it is very strong), the President's attention ought to be given-as that of the pub? lic will be-to the practical execution of the law in completing the work of reconstruction; and that depends far more on the actual and com? plete authority of the Generals in their re? spective districts than upon any technical con? structions of tbe law. Their moral influence and consequent usefulness very much depend upon the realization of the fact that they are in a manner absolute-that their power to dispose of faithless or obstructive officials ia as complete as their pow? er to preserve the peace-and that their acts are not subject to reversal by distant political authori? ty. Lei it be once understood that the General is a mere subordinate, whose superior is ready to listen to the complaints of persons whom the Gen? eral has for cause removed, and from that moment the enemies of tho law will take frosh courage, and the work of reconstruction will be very seriously impeded, [From the Herald.] No man disposed to accept and act upon thia law in good faith can see in it any other than the clear intent and purpose thus set forth. But we do not say that any lawyer may not argue around it or that legal acuteness, exercised for the specific purpose, may not find in it places large enough for many small men to creep through, Richelieu could condemn a man upon any three lines he had over written, and no doubt the right sort of lawyer can nullify and defeat tho most distinct and posi? tive statute that ever declared the will of a ruling power. It, indeed, requires only very moderate ability to make quibbles of any sort. Is tho re? construction law t o be acted upon in this spirit ? Are legal arguments to deprive it of its vitality? Does the President, under pretence of tolling the commanders how to execute the law, intend to tell them only how to defeat it ? Evidently that is just where we stand. This is the evident purpose now. and it is clear that we are on the eve of new troubles. Above all, it is clear that rccona.truc.tion cannot go forward until we haye another Execu? tive. How long sha]! that boy This is now the great Seati?n for the country to consider. We nave e Presidents platform in the two opinions-wo know what to expect from him, and we ought to determine at once what shall be done. [From the Commercial Advertiser.] We cannot, therefore, but regret that the Attor? ney-General, able and strong aa he is in his legal criticism, felt constrained {o make this issue. It is bettor, ito" pur judgment "tp bear the ills" of military reconstruction, than tu provoke others. We would not willingly furnish a pretext for the reassembling of Congress, thus unleashing the blood-hounds of ''Impeachment," "Confiscation" and "Land Distribution." As we stand, Stevens, Boutwell, Butler and Wade, with the propensity, lack the power to work mischief. But if the Presi? dent, acting upon tho opinion of tho Attorney General, removes Sheridan, the "Accursed and unquiet wrangling dava" will return. The vfoxk of reconstruction was progressing, and reunion in dOhto, or indeed in anv, form, is bettor than perpetual warfare. [From the Evening Post,] There is too great haste, \t seems to, us. among certain men and, journals to excite the country anew upon thf. reconstruction question, We aa. viso the people to keep cool,' Tho President has not refused or neglected to exeouto the law; hie official opinion ia that it is a despotic oct; doubt? less he will make ita execution os little hurtful to the liberties of tho country as may bc; and on the other side, the generals in command are men who may bo trusted to maintain "peace and good order." When they attempt, after their military fashion, more than the law au? thorizes, they ought lo bo warned and cautioned to keep to their business. For tbe r?*?, registra? tion is going on ; "peace ?nd good order" prevail' in the Southern g jatos ; and unless tho impracti? cable and unruly politicians here can, in concert with the impracticable and un? ruly politicians in the Southern States, overthrow all that has boen accomplished, all the States will be represented in the long session of Congress, to the very great benefit of the country. That is what tho moss bf the people want, what they are impatiently waiting for, and we advise political schemers, either North or South, to stand out of tho way.

J [GENERAL OHLERS NO. 25.] It appears from sundry petitions and official repre? sentations that thc present scanty supply of lood in the Carolinas is seriously dimlnishel by tho large quantity of grain consumed in numerous distilleries, put up snd worked in defiance of the revenue laws of the United States ; it ls represi n ted that few or none of the require? ments of law are observed in any of these establishments; that the officers of the internal revenue service, while endeavoring to assess and collect the whiskey tax, are frequently treated with (Msaespect, and sometimes menaced with violence ; and that when offenders are prosecuted in the civil courts, and violations of the in? ternal revenue laws Indisputably proved. Juries fail to convict the parties ; it is further shown that thia un? lawful traffic makes food dearer in places where burge numbers are depending upon public and private bounty; that the Government is, < esides, defrauded of a large amount of revenue ; that the authority of its civil officers ls brought Into contempt ; and furthermore, that the mischief complained of tends to increase poverty, dis? order and crime ; therefore, in the exercise of the au? thority vested hi the Commanding General, it ia ordered that L The distillation or manufacture of whiskey or other spirits from grain, is prohibited in this Military District Any person so engaged or employed will be deemed guil? ty of a misdemeanor. The po .-session of a still, or other apparatus for this purpose, will be considered presump? tive evidence of a violation of the Revenue Laws, and the party or parties using the same, or on whose premises, or in whose possession the same may be found, will be arrested and brought to trial before a military tribunal composed of tho Commanding Oilicer of the Post and two officers of the army, next in rank on dury within the territorial limits of the Post If the exigencies of the service do not permit the detail of other officers, that fact will be duly certified and tho Post Commander will hear and determine tho case.

The subject of this brief sketch was by occupation a master mechanic, and was, for some considerable time, engaged at the foundry of bia esteemed friend. Mr. JAKES M.

D?ring his illness he was watched over and cared for by anxious friends with the tenderest solicitude, all of whom ex? pressed an earnest hope of his recovery. Congestion, however, ensued after four weeks of Inexplicable Buffer? ing, uncomplainingly borne, and the hope which had thus been fostered was crushed and gone.

None can ttay BU hand or tay unto Hun, what doest Thou t The tears of an aged and venerated mother-now almost a centenarian-of an exemplair wife, three affectionate children, and a loving and only remaining brother, are shed in sacred silence over his grave; but though they sor row much at their great deprivation, their unwavering faith in Him who giveth and who taketh away, points them to a glad reunion hereafter In a world of unimagined beauly and light Our friend was professedly of the Catholic Apostolic religion, and the bleat consolations of sought for in? struction and thorough preparation were faithfully and with much zeal administered to hun by the Church, He wan happily fitted for the great change that awaited him, and ho evidenced a quiet, fearless, bumble, Christiar resignation to the will of God worthy of one who was ac sensible of his dependent condition.
