Editor* of the Herald: Nw YOBK,. August 8, 1867. I thank you for your manly an? nouncement, in thia morning's He? rald, in tho article headed "Tue New Crisis." Your views in thati article are so wholesome, that I can't leave the oity this morning-being tr?nsi torially hore-without expressing my gratitude.' I assure you, sir, that the present effort of party leaders to se? cure political power by : making the Southern States negro States, is most elating, and the people of the North 'must not allow its success, if they value their own freedom and pros? perity. If the people stop to think, they will spurn such an attempt with indignation; nothing bot false issues can possibly afjow suph a ruinous pro . ject to succeed. To cheat tho people, tho advocates of thiB nefarious scheme will keep before tkenxthe idea of mar? tyrdom, and all that sort of thing; but the true issue should be ever pre? sent to our minds, and might be re? warded, at less expense, than the.over? throw of our institutions. Now, sir, I have done ray .humble part in thc late war for the Union. Two of mj sons have fallen under the Union flag, and my "part has beeny in coutribu ti?h, and not in the inception of pen .ny'e profit? during' the strife; bm never have I wished' anything but r restored Uni?n. Fot this, and tim alone, I have sacrificed, and not fo; the elevation of the negro, nor tin disfranchisement of the people of th? Southern States. If the people o the South are not to bo restored t< the Union, -then the bid oopperheac cry, that the Union could not be re stored by arms, is verified. Theidei that the Sooth must be Africanize* before its States are allowed to re turn, is an admission that the war ha been a wicked, failure, and has be ci waged for the destruction of the re public It is not a debatable question We did not send our sons to dio fo the creation of negro States in th South. I appeal to the great masse in the North, who generously poure out their blood in the conflict, if th) waa their object. Mr. Editor, yo have hita t?nder chord in your, rc marks, this morning, and I know i will awakon the sleeping sense of th people iu this crisis. I have,jam chased a plantation in Alabama, nu contemplate removing there and el couraging others at the North to fo low me; put if that State is to be negro State,'farewell to my purpose The reasons are obvious; fanatic may not see therm but men of con mon sense can. I thank you egan from my heart. IRA E. HARRIS. CHARLESTON-, August ll.-The ore accounts from nearly every Distrii in the middle and upper sections < the State represent corn and cottc in fine condition. The damage of ti caterpillar along the coast is, so fa inconsiderable. RAMSIOH, N. C., August 12.-Tl following telegraphic correspondent between Gov. worth and Gen. Siokl took place this evening: STATB OT NOBTH CAROWRA,1 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, RALEIOH, August 10,1867. Maj. Gen. J). E. Sickles, Commandi, Second Military District, Charlesto 'S. C.: Tho Country Courts, whose duty is to revise and provide juries bo for our County and Superior Courl in many Counties have not ma such r?visai since your Order No. ? This omission has not sprnug frc any disposition to disobey yo orders. Yonr order qualifies jurors those who have been assessc and who shall have paid taxes for t current yonr. The words "enrre year" have boen construed as t presbnt fiscal year, ending 80th day September next.' Our rovenuo A section44, page 12,'requires tho! lists to be placed in the collecto hands on or before tho 1st day of Ju The machinery of our revonuo li makes it impossible that the clei can lmvo the tax lists ready for di vory milch before tho 1st of Ju Sheriffs usually begin to j coll about tho 20th of July, and aro lowed nutil October 1 to oorhpl collection and make return. 1 County Courts canriot1 kppw v have paid taxes this .year, uutil sheriffs shall have made their' turns. At the first term of ? County t?ohrt<;, occurring altor. 1st of Ootobcr* I have no doubt the County Courts will comply M yonr order. The Fall Circuit of " 'ii in iV 'in 11 h' j Superior Court is just commencing; it is believed that in many, and pro? bably in all, the Counties, the jury lists will not have been revised. Two of our judges how in my office, on their way to their circuits, report to me that they have just commited Col. Bomford, and that he construes your order as forbidding them to try any suit before a jury not drawn con? formably to your Order No. 32. If it be true, us'I think it is, that tho County, Courts have construed your ord?ir as above set forth, tho cala? mity '.?ll result that no courts will be held on the fall circuit in very many of its ?ourUs. If you can suggest any mode of avoiding this calamity by telegram, I will communicate it by telegram to the judges. (Signed,) JONATHAN WORTH, Governor of North Carolina. HBABQ'HH, GHA?RIJESTON, S. C., August 10, 1867. Hts Excellency Jonathan Worth, Go? vernor of ?for?i Carolina: The circumstances set forth in the telegram of your Excellency show that it has been impracticable to re? vise the jury lists, in compliance with General Order No. 32, in tim? for the prescht term of tho' courts. Paragraph 2 of General Order No. 32 is therefore suspended, in its ap glication to the present term of th? uperior and County Courts foi North Carolina, abd the juries foi said term may b? enipanneled a? hereto fe? provided by law. Tho pub lication Sf your Excellency.'^ telegran and this reply is authorized, for th? information, and guidance of all con cerned. By command of Maj. Gen D. E. Sickies. (Signed,) J. W.

WASHINGTON, August 12, -The 1 sident, at 10 o'clock this morui sent a communication to Stant snspoUdmg him from office as Sc? tary of War, and directing bim transfer,the records,* books, etc., Gen. Grant, and informing Stan that Gen. Grant had been empoWe I to act as Secretary of War ad i nier ?t tbosame hour, authority was fi en. Grant authorizing him to ac I Socretnty of iWar ad interim, tlir I ing Hird to nt1 once enter upon' I duty. At noon, the President recei -.? ? a note from Stanton, denying that the -President had the right, under the , Constitution and laws, to suspend him (Stanton) without the consent of the Senate or legal cause; but inas? much aa .the General Commanding i the Armies of the United States bad I notified him (Stanton) that he (Gen. I Grant) hod accepted the appointment I of Secretary of War ad. int?rim, he I (Stanton) had no alternative but to. I submit, under protest, to superior I force. Gen. Grant has assumed charge of the War Department, and ap? peared at the Cabinet meeting, to? day, for the purpose of considering certaiu questions with reference to territory recently acquired from Rus? sia. , The first communication from the Executive Department to Gen. Grant, as Secretary of War ad interim, was issvujd at 2 o'clock to-day, and, refers to louisiana matters. The order, it is said on good authority, is in har? mony with the views of Cutler. Internal revenue receipts to-day $1,062,000. There are further changes in tho Cabinet probable. The papers presented by Dunham, alias Conover, as ground for pardon, contain no words impugning Ashley, Butler or auy other person. Those which professed to disclose the, plot were filed subsequently, and appa? rently in despair of proouring par? don without them. They are alto? gether distincl from the original pardon papers. There is higher au? thority for saying that, when the dis? closures came officially before tho President, he decided to submit them to tho public without further investi? gation, or any attempt to gather addi? tional evidence, which was said to exist. It is officially stated that the value of the New Orleans and Carrol ton Railroad, assigned to the United States in part payment of the recent New Orleans defalcation, is not af? fected by the mortgage held by the Fourth National Bank of New York.
