the Froedmen's Bureau. ^ Generals SUdlmmi and Fullerton btre at length made their report of the working of thin institution. The re port ielong and very interesting, giving^ lb fail account of the i||epeet1on made in the Sutea of Georgia. AUhamx.

All the labor performed by these employees, except, perhaps, the occasional cervices of a contract surgeon, migln be discharged by details from thn troops. In previous reports we have recommended the merging of the diniv* of the Bureau and the military. We would agajn respectfully urge this amal gamation. and that one'.set of officer? ctioutttbe required to perform tb? jnin> .duties thus avoiding "he expert** of ? maintaining two establishments. The Bureau in. Georgia, under the tnanagemeil of the present aide and efficient assistant commissioner, JlrcCet Major-General Tit-on. brut been bpne*! ly .tdministered, and has accomplished ell the good of which the system is ca pable. It has l>?en assisted by the Governor, the Judges of the Supreme Court, by the civil authorities, and to onto extent by the citizens. The mended Uws of Georgia are fully as liberal as those of any Northern S'.ate. fnd place the negro in all respects on peifect equality with the white man - as to bis.civil eights. - * $ r a t tt s In I l?l? ff I ulo Wuir?e. General Swayne, the assistant cotuiuif ioaer, ha* pursued a di crcet rtJjd ?n* lighted policy ill adininieteriiig the affair* of the Bureau, laboring on all occasions to secure the .co-operation of - the civil authorities.-and to obtain from the judicial machinery of the State a recognition of the right* essential to the security ami well being of the freed people. This policy of General Swavne nas produced a tpttoli m->re kind j feel iog toward* the Bureau than exis's where its agents have us.-utned to exercise judicial power*.

In this, a* in others we have ?jested, the officer* of the Bureau formerly imposed and collected fine*, ami many kept no record*. We found a marked ir stance of (hi* kind at Grenada, where a former agent of the Bureau, Chaplain Livertnore, did a thriving bunne** in the way of collecting fine*, nailing ratios* and Government horses and . mulo*. This officer seem* not only to ftare collected fines ranging from fifty cents to fivedoilare from tha freed men for marrying them, bin al*o attempted * . to exact feet from resident wl?ite ministsr* for giving them permission to mar-' ym.- wj ireeamen. ? * ", -f zm S* \ . la cn^es. where the negroes were tin *? " . able to pay the rum demanded of them ft?r approving ikeir contract* of marryipg them, the Chaplain levied on their personal property, in ony c*"e seising a negroV empty wallet and jack knife for a balance of fifty cents, Thi? i-kxe driving ii?"]trobably tcfbe accounted.for by the fact that Chaplain Liverinnse ?>peniy expressed hi*, intention ,lr> return* to Illinois with.(10.000 in hit pocket. After he had b? en removed from hipost, he offered a military. officer (SOfor his influence to retain him in hfc position. Chaplain Livertnore h-ft no /?. ffieial papers behind to show the di* petition he had made of the fund* re reived. A farge amount of innney was i?o collected by the fliet two agents at Columbus, in -the shape cf foes 'and fines, and, so far &* we could learn, no , account was ever renrlered of it. This class of officers Lava lately bean usustared out. or have dinappearjd. Under tbe present administration, the agents ?ierci?e no judicial powers. Louisiana.?The Bureau in t^ts de partment hi more in need of retrenchment and reform, than in any other State wa have visited. More inonev has been collected, and more money has been squanderer] in Louisiana than in any other three Southern States. The expenses of the Bureau,-as account ed for. for the fiscal year, emlirig the 1st of June, 18U0, were over $.100,000.To meet this- eajreuditure, there asere collected in taxes and rents the follow. *ii|f JiiiiiiuniB i.

From The sworn testimony it will be seen that Capt, Morse, appointed provost marshal of the Bureau,by Mr. Con way, made the provost inanhal'* oftico a slave pen, arresting freed men ami selling them to planters at $5-a head, and sharing the proceeds with his special p- liceinai\~ who made the arrests This officer further collected a large-amount u$ money from freedenfti ar.d white per ?on? aneated .bv him Tot various offences, and his book* onl> show Receipts ftotn .his source antontiiitig to $073-10 .
