Newberry. Samuel Droutkitt, Greenville C. H. Wm. Moore, Abbeville C. II. Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. The President and I^reedmen. The Richmond Times, says: President Johnson in his recent speeches, in placing himself fairly and squarely before the emancipated slaves, as a far more disinterested and judicious friend of the black race than those negrophilists who are simply using the negro for political ends, took a wise and timely step in the right direction. The thin varnish of philanthropy with which the radicals glossed their true designs aud objects has already cracked, and pealed oil' in ninny places. As a former owner of slaves him? self, President Johnson regards the late masters of the freedmen as their best friends. Ha explodes tho shal? low pr?tentions of those agitators who feel no moro real interest in the negro than the famous demagogue, WUkes, did in those huge London mobs which ho used to accomplish his purposes.. ?Since the fall of the Confederacy we cannot recall a singlo instance of a late slaveholder having embezzled the funds of a confiding "freedman.'* They have not been parties to any of those deportation and kidnapping schemes about which Mr. Sumuer had so much to say in the Senate tho -??\\2x day, Tlicy-have, not collected money for the purpose of getting them imaginary homes, and then left them iv. the lurch as a Northern ad? venturer did tho other day in Rich? mond. It has not been necessary to lock up Southern lawyers to keep them from fleecing the "freedmen," as Gen. Miles had to incarcerate and Gen. Terry to reprimand a New York lawyer a few weeks since. Wherever colored troops and unprincipled emissaries have not demomlize.l thc blacks, their relations with their former masters have been infinitely better than any one could have anti? cipated. We believe that at no distant day the most obtuse, thick-headed cuffee, who is now sweltering at the plow tail, will discover thc truth of what the President told tho Washington negroes tho other day. THE EFFECT <>K TUT. TARIFF ON NAILS.-Thirteen of tho leading nail manufacturers of Pittsburg, Wheel? ing and Ironton met in Pittsburg, on the 12th instant. It was discovered that the present stock does not ex? ceed 15,000 kegs, while at this time last year the stock was 100,000. Who pays for this? Tho people! Who make enormous fortunes? The ma? nufacturers! General E. P. Connor, who lately commanded in Salt Lake City, in an interview with Congressmen in Wash? ington, stated that Brigham i'onng had 10,000 men in Utah capable of bearing arms, and was very desirous of driving the United States soldiers ont. It is now presumed that Con? gress will augment the force there, and change the laws so that soldiers in that Territory may vote. RAILROAD FROM CINCINNATI TO CHATTANOOGA. -A meeting was held in Cincinnati, on thc Illili instant, to concert measnres for the construction of a railroad from that city to Chatta? nooga. Large subscriptions were made, and it is thought the road will be built. - -. % Mr. Gordon Cumming, whose mar? velous hunting adventures in South Africa, some twenty years since, gave him a world-wide reputation, expired at his residence at Fort Augustus, Scotland, a few weeks ago. lt is the opinion of various promi? nent Congressmen that the jue cut session will be closed early in June. Apart from the subject of reconstruc? tion, all other business can be closed in several weeks. The destructive mule distemper, prevalent in Mississippi, is increasing to an alarming extent. The planters are called up to take stops to arrest tho disease, if possihlo. Tho Richmond Wh?h of Tuesday, j rays: The South is this dav Hie only tran quil section of the Uniou. There aro neither wars nov rumors of wars j here. Varty strife is unknown herc, j "We are as calm as a May morniug, j and as peaceful as though -we had never known war. If tho Committee of Fifteen would now turn their attention to the Northern States, and summon witnesses to testify ns to tho state of feeling there, a very differ? ent condition of things would be illustrated. All of tho agitation, ex? citement and disaffection that exist in the country exist there! It is all astir with passion, prejudice and dis? content. It i ; this day as much ex? cited as it was during the war. Compare, for a moment, some of the prominent men of the two sec? tions; which is the most composed, General Lee or Charles Sumner; General Johnston or Thaddeus Ste? vens; General Beauregard or Senator Wade? These men are types of the people of the two sections. No man living can lay his hand upon Iiis heart and say that the safety of thc country is threatened by the South. Radicalism is the source of our peril, and that is all beyond the Potomac. The wi 3 South is solidly in favor of the res ?red Union; its only oppo? nents aro at thc North. The wh?le South admits that the attempt at se? cession failed ; thc controlling party at tho North and in Congress act npon tln; assumption that it was n success. President. Johnson lately despatch ed Maj. (len. .'Jamos li. Stecdrnar and Brig. (icu. Fullerton to inform him upon the social status of thc Southern States. Gen. Steedman i: well-known by Iiis military career a: Colonel of the 14th Ohio, whic! fought tin; battle of Carriel;\s Ford Va., one of "McClellan's first victories for gallant conduct at Mill Spring, tc tho commander who led Gordoi Granger's reserve corps to Thomas assistance at Chicltauiauga, and as ? corps commander in th?; battle o Nashville, Tenu., in December, 1S6-1 Gcu. Fullerton was for many mouth Gen. Howard's adjutant, and was a . .nc time a principal agent of liv iiree-Uueu-'s Buve.-.u. . Thecxpcrienc of Gens. Fullerton and Steedman, v. traced by our correspondent, is iden ticid witli that of Gen. (?rant, an shows conclusively that the repri sentations of radical loaders an papers, showing antagonism betwee the races and outrages upon th weaker one, are exaggerations of ii dividual cases, and wholly inapplici ble to thc people generally. Ot correspondent was shongly impresso with the idea that the antagonis: between the races was bitter an relentless, und has been astonished I find its entire absence. Ho repr< senta the reliance, respect anddepoi dence of the days of slavery as st: existiug, and pictures thc native Vi gininus as the friends and tutors i their former slaves. [ Neic York Herald, 23d. Judge Smalley, of the Unit? States Circuit ('oort, has decided th an assessor has no right to revio any assessment made by him, ai which lias boon transmitted to t! collector and paid, and that the ii sessor bas no authority, under tl law, to require any man to appear f examination in regard to such reiurr nor compel him to submit his boo for examination. Madame "Murat, of Tallahas.se Florida, widow of the late Color Achille .Murat, and first cousin to t Emperor of France, has received as gift from Louis Napoleon a life u unity of 511,000 francs, in eonsidei tion of her losses by the results the war.

Tho radicals aro boasting that tm of the scoundrels in j.iii La Maine 1 long to their party. The seomidr ofthat parry seem to it-; to be out jail in all the Stales. Mr. Griffith, of the "Crater Farn near Petersburg, .shot a "biaekbh Thursday morning, who was diggi Up his place to get" ullet ; and Wol not go away. * Benjamin F. Caswell, the other J day, at Memphis, tried to kill the sister-in-law of a Mr. Henry Taylor, because she rejected his suit. He i fired at lier four or five times, but j missed. A. G. Chisholm, who killed Charles j P. Shepherd, at Atlanta, Ga., has been acquitted on the ground of self defence. The third attempt to lay thc Atlan tic cable looks well. All the stork ! taken up, and nineteen milos of cable j manufactured daily. lt is authoritatively stated in New ?
