Under instructions from President JohnsoP-jOvn. Grant yesterday issued orders to muster cut of the Federal service , all .that remains of the colored troops. . *iicw.,ijgkwauHUii v oc?iy'.u.ituRi:iuiiic ...v < 'conntry.- ' * ' - This should he considered good news, Norh nif] South, as it marks an important epoch in the history of the pacification of the country. Apart from the un. necessary drain upon the Federal Treasury for their maintenance, these negro troops were a source of special social disturbance at the South. Their presence galled and irritated the whites, while they fostered insolence ar d idleness among the freed negroes The di sbindment of these troops will do more to pacify the South than any other single act of Pres. Johnson. After the negroc3 are got rid of, there ' will yet remain 75,000 white troops in service. It is the intention of the President to reduce this number to 50,t)00 as soon as it is practicable. The disbanding of ti e immense armies the Not th and South, within the spare I of five KU'T.ths. will he justly I' gnrdod hereafter as one of 'he marvels of history. In no other country than . the United States would it have ben possible. Not a little of the credit for this miracle just Jy attacbeato the wise and /conciliatory j policy of Pres. Johnson.?New Yoik\ Herald. Lee at the Grave of Jack- j son. A correspondent of the New York Daily. Nacs, writing from Lexington, Va., giving seruc.; account of .the place and its attractions, says: But the greatest attraction to the vis~ i itor to Lexington, and indeed, the Mec-X ] ca to which, in years ,to come, many i . pilgrims will-resort/,';is "the grave of | --MSte&eyalLJa "territioo, the i>umi ot * a~rosmberoi^jrre* f( Order attracted to the beautiful cemetery of the town a long procession of Odd Fellows, and en'immense crowd of citi- i Bens, and .1 went, that l rmgnt avjul ray?> self of the opportunity of visiting the i < grave of the great chief whom I had so j < often 'followed to vietory. No stone i marks the spot, which is indicated by a 1 staff, upon which the Confederate flag i once floated ; but the wreath of flowers, laid by fair hands on the grave, and kept fresh by daily additions, is a fi* emblem of the place the hero holdsin the mommy i and affections of the people of the South. As long as true greatness, honor, purity . of character, and decp^toncd piety are esteemed, Jackson will not be forgotten. I was told, that immediately on' hi* ar- , rival in Lexington, to assume his piacc in the Washington College, Gen. Lee paid a visit to tho grave of Jackson, and lin- | gered for a long time around the hallow- , ed spot. Lee at the grave of Jackson, would form a picture which a master hand might delight to paint. Staetukg Discoveries- at Nash-* | < ville.;?A special despatch to the New f York world, dated Nashville, October 20 ) ?avs ? _ J t A startling discovery has been made in | ( this, city within the last few days. A|j large piraiber of thieves have beeu deprc-11 datinparound the city for some time past. All efforts to catrh them have beeu'una vailing until lately. It has been asccr- ^ . tained that there are five different caves nnder the city, which are occupied bv thieves, burglars and counterfeiters. The ^ McNary vault in the graveyard has been pnt under guard, and men set to work to effect an entrance into the cave. As fast F as the eiftth is removed, fresh earth is o thrown up from the inside of the cave. F This is the same cave that Murrell snd n . his gang occupied when engaged in run- i ning off negroes and horses. The affair e; has been kept secret, but leaked out in c spite of the military. A year ago it was f reported that the McNary tomb was used us a nlaoo to store nlnndi-v and it ic <vun. monly reported that a lake, covering five r( acres and very deep, is directly under the C city. One man swears to having throughly explored the entire cavern, from one end C to the other. A guard has been stationed c over the Acklcn and Harden touibs. The Sl locksmith gives liis opinion that the lock D on the McNary tomb has been used re- tl cently. The entrance to the cavern is C at the foot of Summer street. The mil- it itary are-determine to find out the outlet tl of the cave. The entrance look3 iike a ai fissure in the rock. The discovery originated from the fact that quite a number al of murders have been cofnmitted in the SH immediate vicinity, ??ch led to an in- ti veBtigation, disclosing the above facts. ? ' m There was a dissolute boy, who, when sh he was told that the best cure for the ar palpitation of the heart was to quit kissing the girls, said, "If that's the only sa cure for palpitation, I say let her pc pip-".

Our space will not allow us to notico all tho Ictails of this message as we desiro to do, eslecially ns wo wish to sny a word or two more if Gov. Terry's administration generally. For four months lie has not only been conpicuously before the scrutinizing eyes of this State and of the United Stales, but, as the rcvilution just closing attracted tho attention of he whole civilized world, aud as South Carolina vns regarded as the' leading State in that rev>1 ut ion, all the civilized world has watched the .dministration ol Gov.

There will no doubt be. dissatisfied, cuvious, iscontcntcd and suspicious minds which will tlribute to Gov.

Federal Presidents.?The following is an extract from a speech of John Vdn Bnrcn, made at Albany, Now YcrkOctiv ber 5: It is a very curious fact, that during the last sixty-five years only three Fed- J craliet Presidents have been elected? Generals Darrison and Taylor, and Mr. ' Lincoln, Each one of these died in the Presidential office, and the Vice Prcsi dents who succeeded to the office ir? each j case was a Democrat. So that, during the whole of these sixty-Svc years Dcm-? ocratic principles have been in theascen^-j dancy. I wonder that some of these t clerical Republicans who look for the c fioger of God in everything, do not sec 1 what a providential dispensation it is? No Democratic President has ever died in office, and no Federalist President ever lived out his tehn in it, showing the trn fp.ll fill PQPP nf PfAtfi/lonno vmiv v* x tvTiuuuwu urgi tuo United States.
