EDITOR: Murder wid out, and soi-will evidence. Having seen Dan Rice's testimony before the Destruc? tion Committee, I have felt sorter slighted, because no mention aiut been made of mine. I suppose it has been suppressed, but I am not to bo hid ont in obscurity. Onr coun? try is the special jury, and by-and-by this business will go up before i* on appeal. The record must go up fair ?nd complete, and therefore I'll take occasion to make public what I swore to. I said a good deal moro than I can put down, Mr. Editor, and at times my language was considered impudent, but they thought that was all tho better for their side-, for it illustrated the rebellious spirit-I heard one of 'em say : "Let him go on.-3-the ruling passion strong in death.

During the war, your folks said thal .a State couldn't secede, hut that while she was in a state of rebellion i she ceased to exist. Now, you sa\ we got out, and we shan't get baci again until 1870.

Right here the man with a merni randum scratched down a garble extract, and old Boutwell, says h "What do you mean by that, si What inference do yon intend?" "I'm statin facts," says I. "Y< must draw your own inference They are. raisin boy children. Ai harm about that? Auy treasoi Can't a man raise boy children? IV haps you'd like to amend the Consi tution ami stop it.

It's utterly imp? ?ssible fur : to tell the strength, and length, a hight, deptli and breadth of th contempt for that party. They lc upon a radical ns as - as- weil, a; beggar on horseback-a buzzard >: in round a dead eagle- a suck-< dog creepin np to the tail of a th lion.

If they lure Brownlow he'll spatter 'em, li daub 'em all over, and slime 'em ? slobber on 'em about right, am will stick, for the pores are open i their morals spongy. I'd Uk? stand off about ten rods and hear i spret 1 himself. It would be wo than a squirt-gun full of cow-sl and I have no doubt wouldgive ge ral satisfaction." "That's sufficient, sir," says Boutwell. "Kf it was in their po fco do so, would your people renew fight?" "Not unless they could fight radicals all alone, and all the wc agree to "hands off.' Even then tl wouldn't be no fight, for we coull cotch you." "What do your people say uj the subject of negro equality?" "They suv it's a lie, sir it. d< m ?fAw?B as? ncfrer can in prac- ' tice, g 'FoOcs were not created free and equal. Xh?t m?y be ft theoreti? cal truth, bot it's always been a prac ti cud lie.

There aint no equality, and you can't* make ono. We ll vote tho niggers certain. FI1 vote Tip, and Tip's a 'head center.' He'll vote about forty, and thc first thing you know we'? elect seven big, black, greasy niggers to Congress. We'll do it certain-seven of. 'om eighteen carats strong, with African musk. Tho other rebel States will do the same thing, and youll "have about fifty of 'em to draw seats with, and you can all stick your legs upon your desks together, and swap hes and vermin, and be sham pood at the same shop, and the lair sexes can sot together in the galleries, and mix odors and fan their scent about pro? miscuous.

We aro bidin our time- We are payin youl- taxes and your duties and back rations for 1864, aud licenses, and your infernal revenue, and obnyin your laws without havin any hand in makin 'em, and we aro cut off from pensions and publio lands; and you sold a poor man's still in my County, the other day, because ho couldn't pay your tax on some peach brandy he stilled for his neighbor two years ago; and soon you'll be sellin the laud for tho land tax, and you're tryin your best to play the devil gene? rally; but you'll catch it iu the long rmi. See if you don't. Talk about Fenians. When tho good men of the North and tho South all get together, they'll walk over the track so fast that you won't have time to get out of the way. You'll subside into ob scurity, and your children will deny that their daddies ever belonged t< such a party. Excuse me, gentle? men, but I'm a little excited. Five cents a pound ou cotton will excitt anybody that makes it. Tax on in? dustry-on sweat and toil. Proteo tion tariffs for Pennsylvania and riv?: cents a pound tax on Southern cot ton -half its average worth-ant your folks will manage some way 01 other to steal the other half. My ad vice to you is to quit this foolishness and begin to travel thc only road tc peace." Old Blow couldn't keep up wit! his garbled extracts. "What makes the President s< popular at the South?" "Contrast, sir-contrast. Thenior? he ain't like your party, the mort popular ho is. He would treat u? about right, 1 reckon, if you wonk let him alone, but you bedevil him sn that sometimes he don'-i undcrstan< himself. 1 don't think he knew f<> a while whether his peace proclama tion restored the writ of Jiabeas corpu or not. But do you go on and im peach him, and that will bring mat ters to a focus. I'll bet you'd be ii Fort Delaware in a week, and th Southern members be here in tlnd seats, and they'll look round at th political wreck and ruin and plunde and atealage that's been going o . am they might exclaim, in thc li iag of the poet, "Who's pin herc ??nee I' m pin gone?'' "Mr. Arp, suppose wt' shonld hav a war with England >>r France, wi ia would the rebels do?" "They'd follow tren. Eoe, and (ieii Johnson, and Longstreet, and Brag and old Bory. My opinion is, thu Gen.

Ni sir, our boys wonldent light under n such." At this timo the man with the nu morandum put down some moi garbled extracts. "Do you think, Mr. Arp, that the South should ever hold tl; balance of power, they would d< maud pay for their negroes?" "1 can t say, sir. But I don't thin the South has lost any thing that wa; We got their labor before the war h their vittels and clothes and doctor bills, and we got it now for about tl Hame.

At this time tho committee look? atone another, seemin to ho bot In cd and astonished. Garbled extrac were put down \\ itli a vim. Mr. Boutwell says he, "Mr. Chai man, [ think, sir, wo are abo through with thc witness. 1 thin! sir, his testimony settles thequestic :ts to what wo ought to do with Sont kU'ii traitors."
