Tho feeling most aroused by tho nrliolo under t Lis titlo in Harper's Magaziuo is tbat of curiosity to find ont tho character and occupation of tbia Ur. J. W. DoForrest, vrho writes sketches so Interesting. Wo have heard his narnu in connect iou with novel writing, and ho informs us hero that "for fifteen months he performed tho duties of Bureau Major at Greenville, B. C." It seems to havo become fashionable among Northorn scribblers, or whatever connection, now returning from tho South, to write "sketches." One of these samo gentlemen was appropriately ond pleasantly answered some time Binco by tho "Charleston Mercury." As usual, bo wss a scribbler, a correspondent of somo Nortborn paper, and must write "sketches." Ho made repeated at-, tempts to force himself into Oharl'.Bton sosi ety, all of whioj failed utterly, lt was appa? rently noceHsary, however, that ?kotebes of Charleston society should bo written, and they were-tho author having never seen what ho sketched. 1 . j Tbs article before us ref&inds us very much of th?B gontloman. Tho author commences by enumerating the characteristics of"tho "chivalrous and scmi-chiva rous Southrons," and among others, rc mar kn that "they have fewer of the virtues of modern eooiety." We aro BomowUat at a 1OB3 to find ont tho preciso meaning of thia phrase "virtues of modern society," aa indeed we aro at tho word semi ckivalroas. He explains that by chivalrous and Boml-cbivairons be does "not moan crackers, sand-hitlers and other low-downers," and again he saya, "1 speak of the gentry,'the educated* the socially influential, tho class which, before the war, governed the South, the class, which may soon govern it again." Of thc? said class wo feel" ourselves perfectly safe in saying that Mr. DeF. knows nothing at all, except, perhaps, either what he may have leirnt from his soml-chivalro?s low-downors,' Or as a looker on, in official capacity. Social intercourse with them be could never have en? joyed while ^Bureau Major;" nor, indeed, in any other capacity since tho waft Tho people of the South have become too suspicions of the Northern "virtues of sooioty," to mingle at all with its representatives. But to return to these "viriuia of modern society." If by this phrase he pointe out the happy attribute of the Yankeo to be pleased at an insult, and highly delighted at the mere proapeot of a blow, aince he hopes always through its means to fill his pockets; if he means by'virtues the still moro Christian char? acteristic bf accepting pay from the seduce* of one'e wifo, and'claiming ono's rights only when tho Said pay is no longer forthcoming; if, in abort, the gentleman refere to the incor? rigible propensity of the Yankee to ignore ut? terly all honesty or veracity when placed in the scales against the "almighty dollar," we agree with him that the South is ranch moro Iree from these virtues, nnd wo hope utterly de? void of them. If tbia bo virtue, wo pray to Almighty God to be preserved from its influ? ence. Tho gentleman has devoted a great deal of paper lo a description of what he calla the "pugnacities" of the "chivalrous Southron." He Baya "the weakest man by nature, the man who, at Ibo North, wonld no more fight thau he would jump out of a second-story window, will, at t!>o South, resent sn insult by a blow, or, perhaps, a stab or pistol' shot." Here be brings in as instances several street rows, bar-room rencontres, ic, which, at the fou tb, are confined to tho low-downers of whom be speaks. The Southron he sketches wonld not be found here. He has mixed up strangely, too, this pngnaoity with self respect, and, appa? rently, without understanding the difference. We do not propose to explain it, nor to discuss the merits of duelling. We eau only he-e again regret the necessity which compels North? erners to sketoh society of which they have seen nothing. "The snporior civilization and higher culture at the North" have done away with duelling and taking to smashing each other's noses and pulling oat eiob other's eyes in a genteel and artistic manner. Where such innocent little amusements are enjoyed it is absurd to spsak of the outrageously bar? barous custom of putting a weaker antagonist on an oqnal footing with oneself. Io reference to duelling, bowevor, it baa evidently been the intention and desire of theautborto dMweome horrible picture-something terrific-to at? tract tho t tteutiou of readers, and ba bimsell the hero who can escape through the mighty dancers. He says: "The pugnacious customs ol Southern society explain in part the extra? ordinary courage which the Confederates dis? played during the io bull ion. A man might as well bo shot doing soldierly se -vice at Itali Run or the Wilderness as go back to Abbeville and be shot there in the duel or street en? counter which awaited bim. The bullet hoi. was a mere question of timo, and why not opec one's arms to it on the field of glory." Gae might suppose from this that all men at thc South died by the bullet br bowie knife. Hon terrible it must have been to this gentiemar himself to bein such constant expaotation ota bullet among bli ribs; and then In tho end tc be disappointed. To the shame of Greenville be it spoken. "Ob ye brave who fight fer glory'1 OT the Freedmen's Bureau, I fear veracity ii not one of tbe "virtues" of your "society." To prove all his bloody assertions, however, he mentions, as an instance, "a dignified old planter who won in his youth, by dint of fre? quent fights and aueis, theaimame of 'Tiger Bil].' In one famous encounter, this antiqm worthy, disarmed, prostrate and ueld donn doubled his legs over his adversary's back and rowelled, from loins to knees, with Span lah spurs." We should like to witness thi wrath ot the said dignified planter upon hear? ing latas litt lo "afflires d'honneur** described h t/v i words. We oan almost imagine bim bo ion as expressing his desire that the autboi b L? dlod at tho South, where all men dio b; tho same meant). It ls needless to say that this is utterl; false. Thoro ls tn old saying that no fal s i fl oat i on ia BO injurious as that which bears th? appearance of truth. Tho "Carolinians of th seacoast," upon whom ho eilis, will percol v. directly that this assertion is ono .of that cha racier. But the gentleman proceeds, and ob servos that "the high-toned gentleman is no ol vii to outside barbarians. He nea not alway civil to oar Congressmen in thc old days when h go ve rn od." Now, whether thia be true or not it is very certain that bis treatment of tb "outside barbarians" bad an eminently benefl cial effect upon their manners. We doubt exceedingly whether Mr. Diokeni encomium on the Senate, viz: "A dighifie and decorous body, and Its prooeedlngs cor ducted with muon gravity and order," would b at all applicable to that body at present. Tb member from Massachusetts, who, in the ol day? of which the gentleman speaks, was coe vlotedon tho floor of Congress of wilful false hood, was literally frowned (rot of hi* seat b Northern aa wella? Bo nth ern members, nc dtdhsdorato^^Vfr^tion. 0 tho other hand, it I? bn.k n fnw months smCO Bon Butler, recently major-general in tho Uni? ted States army, and then member ot tho Senate, eras con viol ed ot tho samo offence under uiuoh moro .aggravated circumstanaee, and not only retains his seat, but Is rc-eleoted by an overwhelming ma]oritv. Never before have Boch acenoB been en acted on tbe floor of Congress as bavo been witnessed there since tho closo t>f tho war. Members make uso of tho most abusivo language lu connection with each other's names, and to each other by name, without being called to order; honesty and truth in their intercourse with oaob other are utterly disregarded, aud tho accounts of thoir proceedings remiud UB more of the rowe in a brothel than the behavior we would ex poct from members of our supremo legislativo body. Better wonld it be for tho reputation of onr statesmen bsd they tho old "incivility" of tho high-toned gent loman. Ut tho "chivalrous Southron", as a class in connection with poht.es, the gentleman closes his article thus : "H?B day is passing; ia anothoi generation his material will bo gone; the chivalrous Southron will be as dead as the slavery which created bim.V Of this tho gent loman need not be uneasy. In spite ol tho tyranny of tho Radical party, bis Buporior character will yet govern tho South as of old, and there is yet within bim a feeling of contempt tor tho "virtues of North? olm mo'lorn sooioty" which will induco him to ding with still greater tenacity to bis old cus? toms. SOOTHBON. DENT ON TUB WAR EATB. Another Political Lutter fiona Judge Dent-Pungent Criticism of nee re tn ry Bontwell ?nd iii? Political Coarse. Judge Dont bas written to Secretary Bout well a pungent letter, ot which the followiog is a copy : WASHINGTON. D. C., August 17. To Bon. George t?. Boulwetl, Secretary of the . Treasury: 8ra-I shall mike little apology for asking your attention to my letter, and lc BB for the nature of its'contents. You were.the first .to deny the political orthodoxy of my friends and myself, and by alt the rules of the forum I am entitled to a defence. Again, you hold an office of the repnblio, and,yuur acts, therefore, aro legitimate subjects ot criticism by the bum-, bleat citizen thereof. Bat id some respecte we' are alike. For instance, we are both aspirants for place, tilth this difference: You aim tobo the next President, with overy assurance of success, "except" in the opinion of tho people. While 1 seek an humbler placo; with my hopes in disastrous eoliose,. ''except" in the judgment of Mississippi, no in the probable re? solta of the future we both stand adverse to tho judgment of tho country. In tho PUrault of your ambition you ero ungrateful and Un-, scrupulous as to tho meaos ol success..fWWp; organ, the Now York SUD, in the samers ridiculos the capacity ot your mastese^jna d wolle with om pu adi s upon your noonbar fit? ness for his office. Your tool. Ur. Bullock, be? came BO reckless in the manipulation of your department in the interest or your ambition, and so defiant of tho wishos of the President and the country, that to Bite" yourself from an explosion of popular indignation you found it convenient to transfer him to another sphere of scandalous activity, where hiB? talents might be exerted with equal effect and lesa effrontery. Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi and Texas not to mention anything ao bumble as myself were obstructions io the way of your success; because through 'President Grant's interven? tion in excluding the proscriptive clauses from their organlo law, these States are brought into tho Union sud firmly welded to bis support. Now thia is iq direct conflict with your sys to? mat ired plans. For what nouerai Grant rots in the ntXt presidential election, clearly Mr. Boutwoli will not get, and. thereto re have you denounced the conservative Republicana who are for Grant. That you may obtain the pro BCiipli ve Republicans who are for Bontwell, and by some strange, dexterous management and occult political ttratogy you have so worked upon the confidence of tho President ss to cause bim lo flourish tho club with which you intend to break his bead, hy inducing bim to Join yon io denunciation of the conservativo Republicana, a party created by bia magnanim? ity and triomphant through bis encourage? ment. " . But, air, "your purpose ia easily discerni? ble, and bas a two-fold object, namely, to de? ?troy the national Republican* party in the South, and then to reconstruct from the shat? tered fragmenta a Bontwell party, with one Riohme~3 in the field to strike for your crown. But if you cannot succeed in this sob?me of desperate enterprise, you moan to min," a re? sult, from present opp jaranees, much more likely to be reached. Your official intelTBTJHOO fpr Wells, forln ataoce. gave thirty thousand majority tor Wal? ker. Your letter to Stokes gave Ben tor Ten? nessee by au* overwhelming vote of seventy thousand. Your marvellous political sagacity now netivo in Mississippi and Texas will repeal your calamity and again overwhelm you with discomfiture and defeat. Sn pe rad d to these results of your unapproachable folly the impo? sition on these States of your iron-clad oath and the alienation is complote, landing them all io the outstretched arms of Democracy. But the consequences of your folly does not stop here-Oblo andgcVennsyl vania and othf rs will follow. Decide their political status in Octobt-r, and the North will echo back the condemnation of the South, and peal in your ears this fad, that there is still left enough of the incorruptible virtue of ' tho repnblio to ro buke you for a wanton repression of that most sacred right-the elective franohlse. But, sir, this will not deter yon from yonr mad course; you will btill persist until every prop that sup? ports oar party ls stricken away, and the whole grand superstructure tumbles about bur oars In hopeless ruin. When you were appointed Secretary ot the Treasury and unanimously, confirmed by a Senate of every shadoof political opinion, did yon tako on oath to administer your office im? partially and for the exclusivo objecta of its creation-"To collect tho revenue and control the finances ot the country ?" Ia not, that offico the property of the nation, and yourself only clothed for a time with a little bilet authority? Then, sir, bow do you explain this parveraion of its legitimate uses and functions into a means and instrument of oppression to foroe and oompel an election of obnoxious rolers upon the peoplo of the South. rn T> I Is each a oourse consistent with your oath of office, or do yon call this a great moral idea ? Bat, Mr. Bontwell, though you have thus proa. t itu ted the power ot your office for purposes*** oppression, ''without the warrant of con? science or law," it may be that you oan tell mo by what authority you assume to pronoanoo upon my political orthodoxy. Who constitut? ed you ibo infallible hope of Republicanism ? Who gave you tho authority to burl the polit? ical anatbemis of tba party? Asam, what right bad yon to commit tho administration to your policy ? Have yon to learn yet tbat yon are only a part of the administration, and not tbe whole ot it ? though your friends believe tbat a monomania bes seized your mind on that subject, and that you verilyabellevo your? self "the State."

Hie Discharge ito W ant of Bwldettee rna anal A tte nd a nea mt Conrt-Pre? ce ed tn gs Before tate United States Conamlaaloner. - Tlic casi of John H. Pratt, formerly a major . in tho Confederate army, who was recently ar? rested in New York on a charge of murder and treason, alleged to have been committed at Jef? ferson, Texas, came to a conclusion on Monday, a? already stated In Tare News. Alluding to this' case, which has ttl rac ted an uno tu tl share of p ubi i o attention, the New York Times ?V??.]- . . : , . lt was disposed of in s. quiet and legal man? ney, and without any of the turbulent loenes whinn marj persons conjectured would occur in consequence of tho lively excitement created by tho conflict or jurisdiction between Marshal Barlow and Judge ItloUrnn. Tho examination into the case was conducted belore United States Commissioner Osborn. ' Pratt made his outrance into the building several minutes before tho examination began, and was attended hy a company of United States artille/y. His' friends, who gathered tn considerable /oreo, awsited his arrival with great expectation, seomingly much concerned for fear that he would be remanded to the ous tody ,)f the Texas.authorities, io whose han 'e, it waa i.did, his life would bo saorifleod as an atonement for his misdeeds. A large number of people wero assembled in the street, being attracted under the supposition . that some? thing startling would take placo between tho military and the sheriffs forces. After the co oj m ia ii on er bad tasen his seat and called the case of tho United States TV Pratt, there was a general eagerness manifested to seo the prisoner, wbo wee brought in through a Bide door. He subsequently took a ?'?..rat between General Cochrane and General Pryor, his conn BO!. The proceedings held before Commissioner Osborn woro opened by Mc Pllor, who sa'd tbat he would not appear for the prisoner at that time, because be had been legally dis? charged by Judge MoCuun. Hs denied that he had any intention of abandoning his client's cause so lons as he had the poa er to invoke justice. The commissioner claimed that the Siate courin h nd no rieht to interfere in the case, and oitr-d tho decision of Chiet Jua tico Taiiey in tho caso of Abelman vs. Booth, to show be bad jurisdiction over the pnsouer. j Distriot Attorney Pierrepout subsequently ' made an addresB defending the aotiun of the i United Sta.es authorities io boldlng Pratt, for examination. Ho said that the question about the Jurisdiction of the United States bad already boen decided. Ibo debate commenced at Fort Sumter in 1861, and waa concluded at Appomattox Court? house in 1S65. Tbe argument was a rode [one, but it will never be repeated In our time. The District Attorney represented that tbe commissioner bsd precisely tbs ssmo ju? risdiction over the cue as Judge Nelson wonld have had if it had been conducted before bim, and that no one could deprive bim ot bis juris? diction, l?o eaid that Judge McCunn hod a right to issue s writ of habeas corpus, but that be should bavo remanded the prisoner back to the commissioner on his discovering that be was in bis bands." He said that Go vernor Hoff? man bad received a telegraphic1 dispatch from tho Governor of Texas, requesting him to re? mand Pratt ' lo his custody. After reading ? dispatch bom the ,Borrel ary of War, men Hop? ing the facts ooonected with tbs orime alleged against Pratt, the Distriot Attorney sn noun ted that the government wonld produoe Burn ?vi? dence against Pratt as bad been placed in its possession.' Deputy Mara?al Growly was then colled, and tee ti Qed as to the manner of Pratt's arrest. Ho said that the defendant had informed Mr. Tracy, tho warden of Ludlow-sUeet jan. that his hame wan Pratt, and tbat be waa from Jefferson. Texas. Tuts waa tho only witness iroluccd by tho prosecution. It waa under? stood that the Distriot Attorney bad a large mass of documentary ovidoico. but that lt was riftt^-'Xcper shape to bo tntrcjdaood in the ex fefBMhfi^ Attorney said that ho !B?af?tffllfM^ wno had heard tho Sa^jjS?*^'of il** partira implicated ?wy^FPtt^.and also papau-^relating to their trial, but it contd not bs legal evidence.

Nor bavo the ill-natured .flings of such newspapers sa tho Richmond Whig, evon after it bsd been made manifest tbat Grant had deceived those who had confided in biXu-bocu sufficient to induce the real friends oMMTSuuth io remind that people that "I txJWMS so" in the very boginning. No '.'Ho folly acquainted wieb the conversa? tions and circumstances attending the accept? ance, occupation and Evacuation of the War Department (as acting secretary) by General Grant, could have been deceived bv any of bis asBuranooa.

I can. however, vouch for an illuslrative incident, not letdown intbo b.tla of confidential revelations.
