Dcmecratlc State Tlcfcct. SECRETARY OF'STATE, Gen. MAHLON D. MANSON, of Montgomery. auditor of state, CHRISTIAN G. BADGER, of Clark. TREASURER OF STATE, JAMES B. RYAN, of Marion. ATTORNEY GENERAL, JOHN R. COFFROTH, of Huntington. SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION. ROBERT M. CHAPMAN, of Knox. CONGRESSIONAL. CONVENTIONS. The following are the places and time at which Democratic Congressional conventions for this State are to be held: First District—Vincennes, July 25, I860. Second District—New Albany, June 28. Third District—North Yernon, June 13. Fourth District—Greensburg, June T. Fifth District—Cambridge City, August 7 Seventh District—Grecncastle, Juno 14. Tenth District—Ligonier, June 14,18C0. Senatorial Oeclenaione. Senator Lane, of this State, is a man who likes to work, and is not stingy in tho use of ink and paper. Indeed, he is so intensely absorbed in business that, on some points, he falls behind the times, he fails to keep himself fully posted. A remarkable instance of this want of knowledge of current public sentiment has recently been exhibited by this eloquent Senator of Indiana. It appears from the papers that he has actually prepared and published a letter which must have required some ink and paper, at least; certainly enough, had it beeu devoted to that charitable and holy object, to have sent forth to the world several sympathetic appeals for tho loyal “ culled geman ” of the country, with an appendix of certiflcates to the superiority of the negro over the white soldier; he has prepared and published, we say, such a letter, saying that he will not go back again to the United States Senate! "Work of supererogation! He might have-saved himself all that trouble by taking the Herald, from which ho would have learned, months ago, that it was perfectly settled that he was not to go to the Senate again. The people had reported the fact to us long before Lane took the unnecessary trouble of announcing the fact to them. And lest Morton should feel bound to go to the extra work, even »t the expense of his feeble health, of preparing such announcement in his ease; and lest Orth and Julian should, to that extent, neglect the nigger by withdrawing for a short time, their attention from his dear soul, wc will just mention to them that it will be entirely unnecessary that they should inform the people that they arc not going to the Senate. The people are already fully advised of that fact. _ Tl»c Republicans of Husbvillc. AVe had not supposed that there was another place in the State, except this city, where the Republicans were in the habit of deliberately taking Democratic votes out of the ballot-box, and replacing them with Republican tickets. The Rapublicans here have boasted that they understood the art of counting from the bottom in a degree of perfection to which it had never been carried; but it seems that the Republicans of Rushvillc have either taken lessons from the villains of this city, or made a brilliant exhibition of their native talent for the invention and practice of fraud and crime, an exhibition that compares well with metropolitL n infamy. lUe are indebted to that thorough and persevering Democratic paper, the Rushville Jacksonian, edited by Cv. Crawford, a gallant soldier, and no less gallant Democratic editor, for an expose of the Republican Rushville bald face infamy. At the corporation election, in that town, on the 7th instant, the Republicans counted out to the Democrats but one humlrcd and two votes, and declared their ticket defeated. The Jacksonian contains the names of one hundred and thirty legal voters, who have voluntarily come forward and offered to swear that they voted the Democratic ticket, on that day, at the election in Rushville. This number gives the Democrats the majority, and legally elects the ticket: and yet the Republican sneaks will holil on. What is the country coming to? Of what value are elections? Tlie right of suffrage is a mockery. General Grant-Thc Radicals—.unitary Power. According to a talk of General Grant, as reported by a man down in Maine, he is one of the bitterest of tho radicals; says the South is acting badly; that Lee is acting badly; that the women are acting badly; that they arc worse now than at the end of the war; that the war ended too soon; that the army ought to be kept up, and.that military despotism ought to be continued as the government of the country, so that tho copperhead papers could be squelched out, etc; that the South would rule the North, etc. To all this, we simply say, that Grant, if course, in the keeping of the radical Washburne, wants to run against Johnson for the Presidency; that his talk about the Sqpth now ruling the North, is absurd; that he manifests more hate to the Southern people than a mag. nanimous man would exhibit; that he ahows a lack of discrimination in not seeing that the faithless, persecuting course of the radicals is changing the feelings of the South; that he has no conception of constitutional government when he talks now about suppressing the papers and opinions of those whose opinions are as good as his, and more likely to be right, as they arc the opinions of those .who have less interest in keeping up military rule than he has; we honor General Grant as a warrior and a patriot, and hope he will not suffer his heretofore honored name to be, in any way, injureil under the influence of the big head. Wc hope he will not let flattery and presents, and power and ambition mislead him to his own and the country’s injury. The Civil Uiffhts Rill. Serctary Seward says this bill is unconstitutional. That it is, we have not the slightest doubt, though it will be decided constitutional by many of our Northern State courts, who inquire no further,on constitutional questions, than simply to ascertain whether the party is for so anti so; and, in eases, where prominent Republicans are concerned, on which side their interest lies. Here is one point, wherein the law is unconstitutional, viz: that it controls the State courts in questions of evidence, relative to persons, just as the internal revenue law does in relation to things, thus: the internal revenue law says a note shall be stamped, or a writ shall be stamped to be evidence in a State court. Congress can not make a law saying what shall or shall not be good evidence in a State court. The Civil Lights bill says the State courts sh ill adi:.^ certain persons as witnesses; and, if it can say they shall admit, it can say they shall reject; but it can not say

either.

Indiunnpol is—Cincinnati. “ In the year 1800 Cincinnati had but 400 inhabitants; in 1810 it had 2,540; in 1820,9.602; In 18:iO, 21,Hal: in 1810, 40,3:>8; in 1850, 115,456; in 1865 it had 230,000.” In the years 1800, 1810, 1820, Indianapolis had no inhabitants but native Indians. In 1830, when Cincinnati had 24,851, Indianapolis had near 1,000 inhabitants, about onc-twcnty-tifth. In 1810, when Cincinnati had 46,338, Indianapolis had 2,600, more than one-tvven-tieth. In 1850, when Cincinnati had 115,436, Indianapolis had 8,100, or more than onctifteenth. In 1805, when Cincinnati had 230,000, Indianapolis had 40,000, more than one-sixth. Let us us havq our newly projected railroads, and what may not Indianapolis be? JfcWe hear, on good authority, that beside Messrs. Charles O’Conor and George Shea, heretofore named as counsel for Jefferson Davis, Messrs. James T. Brady of this city, Wm. B. Read of Philadelphia, Brown of Baltimore, and Pugh of Ohio have been retained. The trial, it is understood, is to commence on the first Monday in June, at Richmond Virginia.—York Tribune. Congressman Culver, of Penn, Culver aVo., has been again arrested—this time on the chane of trover, and hold to ball in the amn of 123,006. 9 . .

Tlie Caae at Fir. Milligan. We publish the following article from the Huntington Democrat, simply for the purpose of making a short statement, in connection with giving thut paper a hearing among our subscribers. We do not exactly understand, we may rat, mark, whether the Demon at complains of us, or not, but rather Infer that he does. When Mr. Milligan returned home and the proceedings on his reception occurred, we were East, and knew nothing about them, nor whether they appeared in the Herald or not. The first notice of Mr. Milligan that attracted our attention, after our return, was a statement in the Madison Courier, we believe, that he was the Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. We at once remarked upon it by saying that we were not advised that Mr. Milligan was a candidate, but that the Republicans had nominated Morton for their candidate and Milligan for ours, and that we thought Morton far more guilty of crimiaal lawlessness than Milligan, and we think so still. We are not aware that Mr. Milligan was ever guilty of any, it has never been proved that he was, and his cruel and ruinous confinement, without law, shows that he would have been justified in shooting dead upon the spot, those who were lawlessly robbing him of his liberty and seeking for his blood. The law would have held him guiltless in taking life in self defense under the circumstances. We sympathize with Mr. Milligan. M e wish there was some way in which he could get redress for the infamous wrong he has suffered. We shall aid him in all practicable methods. Wo esteem Mr. Coferoth, and shall earnestly support him. At tha same tiup?, the campaign can not bo made alone on Mr. Milligan. “a few plain remarks. “The New Albany Ledger and Indianapolis Herald have recently busied themselves very much about Colonel Milligan’s candidacy. The Ledger, in noticing the remarks of the Madtson Courier^ in effect that the Herald had nominated Colonel Milligan for the United States Senate, takes occasion to give expression to some sinister remarks intended to injure him. The editor of the Ledger is oue of the few men who prostrated themselves at the feet of Governor Morton for a commission in the army, and did not receive it. The editors of the above named journals are the kind or men we expect to hear abusing Colonel Milligan. It was for just such men as these busy editors that he had to suffer wrongs, because Morton & Co. knew only too well that by arresting Milligan he would scare a whole army of them, and make them shut their mouths to open them only to reiterate the slang of Morton’s subsidized Journal. Morton understood them, and that was why Milligan woa arrested. He knew that Milligan had too much nerve to be silenced by the arrest of such “ wet roosters” as the Ledger. What objections have you to Milligan ? What did ho do that all good Democrats did not do? What do you know about him? Simply nothing. “But you say Milligan's arrest had a bad elfeet upon the elections of 1864. This is no doubt true, and that is what it was done for; but if you. aud those who arc helping you to furnish gossip for Republican journals at the expense of our State ticket had possessed a particle of the nerve of Colonel Milligan, you would not have been seared from the advocacy of Democratic virtue, and your followers would not have beeu scared away from the polls. You are not only doing Milligan injustice, but you are doing your own sympathizers injustice in furnishing missiles to the Black Republican papers to cast at some of our own State ticket. And they have used them, as they have used both your papers for years past, to the detriment of the Democracy of the State. ... . Encouraged bv your scandal, they navo attacked Mr. Coffroth, candidate for Attorney General, liecause, as an attorney, he defended Colonel Milligan, and as a neighbor rejoiced at his liberation. Sir. Coffroth knew Colonel M. publicly and privately, and knew that he stood above suspicion. And when he was arrested, 3Ir. Coffroth with other neighbors who knew he was not guilty, went immediately and demanded that he be let to bail, and offered ample bonds. This, too, when Mr. Coffroth aud Colonel Milligan were not personal friends. As counsel for Milligan he attended the proceedings before the commission, heard all the evidence, and still believed, as do all his neighbors, that Colonel M's. character stands above suspicion, and as all the honest portion of the military commission freely admit, as you will see from the following letter, from one of the most responsible and upright of the commissioners who tried him. Terre Haute, Ind., Jan. 16, I860. To His Excellency the President of the United

States:

Dear Sir—As a member of the “ Military Commission,” convened at Indianapolis last winter, by order of General Ilovey, to try the so called “ Indiana Conspirators,” Messrs. Dodd, Bowles, Milligan, Heffren and others, permit me to sav in reference to the ease of L. F. Milligan, one'of the defendants, that I was compelled to dissent from the findings of the Commission, believing that the evidence adduced wholly failed to sustain the charges of the conspiracy preferred against him. My opinion has not changed since the trial; and permit me also to express the opinion that Mr. Milligan's release from further punishment upon these charges is dictated alike by common justice and the popular sentiment of the people of Indiana. I am, sir, with great respect, your obedient servant, William E. McLean, Late Colonel Forty-third Indiana. Other commissioners have offered Mr. Coffroth similar letters. We are seeking no controversy with the Ledger or the Herald. But if they expect Colonel Milligan’s friends (and no man in the State has more of them,) to support a party of which they claim to be the leaders, they will have to conduct themselves differently. There is not a day that we do not hear complaints at the course of these journals toward him. The friends of Colonel Milligan have not announced his name for any office, and they will not permit these journals to do it with impunity merely for the purpose of joining with the Republicans in abusing him. The gentlemen on the State ticket had better see to this matter, for weean assure them that Colonel Milligan is not the man to be disposed of, and trifled with, in this way.

■ ' : •. The RepaMlcaaa and the SMdlera. On last Saturday, the Republicans of Marion county, right under the nose of Morton, in presence of the State House group of powderlese soldiers’ friends, and amid the pretended Soldiers’ Home clergy, who pay their devotion 4o their patron political saint, in the Executive Chair,when called on to do so; these soldier loving fellows, we say, who only take a sham fit of it when a political campaign opens, last Saturday slew General Maginnis, Colonel Kneffler, Major Wilson, Captain Wiley, and voted for stall fed stay at home civilians in

preference to them.

In passing, we may say, that we are in favor of a Soldiers’ Home; one ought to be erected by Congress, in every State, and the bounties ought to be equalized in full; we are in favor of all these things; the soldiers fought for the United States, and the United States ought to build them homes, but the project here is operated, not to accomplish any thing real, but as a matter of demagoguism, of trick, of political deception; a political bobby, which, let all ride who can mount. But, while Morton and his political toadies are most fiercely rocking the hobby horse and shouting, so loud that everybody can most certainly hear them, in the intervals between Lozier’s Glory Hallelujahs, their amazing love for the soldiers, which shouting they have agreed to keep up jtijl after the flection, the soldiers are sitting about on the corners talking

thus, among themselves:

English Injustice te Ireland. 1. In enabling the English officers to pack juries so as always to convict. It would seem that this outrage is practiced in England upon the Irish to nearly as great an extent, as it is in this country by the Republican* against Democrats. 2. On the subject of marriages. Says the Freeman’s Journal: “ One of the proposed reforms, recently canvassed in Parliament, was a bill to amend the law relating to marriages by Roman Catholic clergymen "in Ireland; prepared and brought in by 31 r. Sergeant Armstrong and Mr. Bryan, which we published in last week’s paper. As the law exists, and has been inforced for the last hundred years and more, every marriage celebrated between a Papist and any person who had been or had proiessed him or herself to be a Protestant at any time within twelve months before such celebration of marriage, or between two Protestants, if celebrated by a Popish priest, should be and was thereby declared absolutely null and void, to all intents and purposes, without any process, judgment, or sentence of law whatsoever. The necessity for a reformation of this enactment has been, we think, most aptly demonstrated in the case recentlv decided by the Irish Court of Error. The following synopsis of the decision is from lie Cctk Examiner of the 10th instant: “A decision of a very Important character has just beeu made by the judges sitting in the Irish Court of Error. A fellow named Fannin, indicted for a bigamy and sentenced by judge Keogh to five yeara’penal servitude, ap* pealed against the conviction. The ground of his appeal was that the marriage with his second wife was illegal, he being a Protestant at the time, whilq the woman with whom he knelt before the altar was a Catholic. It was true that he represented himself to the priest by whom they were married, as a Catholic, and neither the clergymen nor the woman he affected to make his wife, had any reason to doubt the truth of his statement. Evidence was, however, given, that in this representation he lied, and the jury found that he had been a Protestant, though they also found that he had pretended to be a Catholic. It was upon this finding sentence was passed upon him, but his counsel argued that the fraud should save him—that the fact of his being actually a Protestant, no matter what representation he made, invalidated the second marriage. Five of the judges were of opinion that the intention oi the prisoner legalized the marriage sufficiently for a criminal conviction, while six of their lordships held that the marriage was not valid in law, and should, therefore, be treated as void altogether. “The fellow escapes therefore without the punishment of his guilt. . Which side was in the right in its version of the law we do not pretend to say. There arc authorities for both views which are of considerable weight. Nor Is it of much consequence, so far as the individual case is concerned, however indignant one may be, at such rascality escaping scott free. But it is of very serious consequence that such a scandal should be suffered to exist as the statute which is supposed to give sanction to this fraud. Now, that, in the abolition of the Catholic Oath, a general sweeping of the cobwebs of bigotry was commenced, we do not see why a statute should be suffered to exist which marks out Catholics for a peculiar degradation, and lays a trap to convert a Catholic priest into a felon. Many of the Judgea, while they felt themselves coerced to obey their interpretation of the statute, denounced the scandalous nature of its provisions. A bill bos been introduced by a private member into Parliament for its abctifton, bnt the wroa* is one worthy the special attention of the <&▼• eroment, and ought not be suffered to (UbtiM beyond the present seeston.”

The Frcedmen’s Bureau.

Wo publish the (bllowing extract, the mildest portion, of the operations of the party, self styled the Bepublican party of loyal patriots, but understood by the public, judging them., by their actions, us the party of loyal,

What the devil did I go to war for? That’s the question. Wbaf did t eat hard tack for— drinK commissary whisky—carry a mule s load—sleep in the mud—suffer in hospital, and

lose this limb for? Who knows?

I enlisted to save the Union,

I went to war to put dowu the rebellion.

I fought to punish traitors.

I killed people to restore the harmony of things. ,, I went to war because that was in “old

times ” the way to patriotism,

And what was there gained? I bad thirteen dollars a month. I rod* shank's mare from Bull Run to tho Red river, and tramped from high living to hell almost all for nothing. I fought to keep this Union whole, and now, when the war Is ended, j am told that fighting divided, and that legislation alone can restore the Union 1 Then why in thunder must I lose three years of time and a limb, if all this work must be done by Congress? What djd Congress want of men ? Why were a million of us killed by drunken, thieving, cotton stealing, silver ware bunting, conceited, upstart, political generals, who went up like rockets and came down like sticks, if Congress can or could restore the Union by legislation?

I went to war in good faith.

I fought a score of times, and the more I fought and the less I “stole,” the slower came P Thdped make a dozen generals, fifty colonels,

and a dozen officers rich.

I have lugged many a piano, rosewood bedstead, marble-top table, cabinet of books, mabogauy sofa, and such stuff, out of Sonthem homes, to be sent North for the use of my “superior” officer, and the adornment of his home in the $ortb. This was the big dart for putting down tfie rebellion! Great God, what

fighting some of our generals did!

And I went to war for less w»gcs than I could have earned at home. And »J>y wife was often starved while I was away.. Aud my children became dirty and ragged—my farm went to weeds—my shop ran down—my tools were stolen or lost—my place; is filled bv another—I came home a cripple, filled with disease, and am now looked upon by the same men who wanted me to go to war, much as some people look upon some dead-beat who has gone through them for all their spare

stamps.

And the abolitionists who forgot to take care of the soldier’s during the war—the abolitionists who told us that the Democrats wanted the Union dissolved—the abolitionists who said Democrats were traitors—the abolitionists who staid at home and dare not fight, except in the form of a mob, in the attack of some defenceless Democrat, now tell us—the d—d cowardly traitors, and rascally thieves we

have found them to be, that

The late war did not restore the Union! The war was therefore a failure!

The white men of the North were no match

for the w hite i»en of the South;

Tho war would have ended in defeat for the

North but for the niggers!

This is what abolitionists tell us. Reckon they would have a good time getting us returned soldiers engaged in another crusade for cotton, niggers, mules, and stolen plunder taken by force of the bayouct from women and

children.

It seems to me as if the late war was a gag, a humbug, a d—d wicked, treasonable, unconstitutional gag. It did not restore the Union, but it made a pile of abolitionists and war

Democrats rich. ,

It never prevented sscession, but it leit this Union in the shape we did not find it. It never benefited any one, North or South, except thieving soldiers, army chaplains, swindling contractors, drunken officers, incompetent generals and other such pets of the

late Administration.

it didn’t help the white people. It didn’t help the niggers. It impoverished half of the Union. It didn't make the South friendly to Northern ideas, interests, or people. It piled a big debt upon u«, and took from us two-third* of our means to pay it. And now I am back from the war to find that I must pay the most exorbitant taxes, and to find that old Grudgings, a d—d mean, narrow minded, stay-at-home coward, is rich, with a safe full of United States bonds or notes, on which I must work the balance of my lift out to pay interest on, while he escapes taxation and lives in idleness. I had a hundred dollars bounty to go to war. Now I come home to find the town, county, city, and State in debt for the money I had. The wealth of the county is bonds—the school houses in ruins—the bridges in ruins—the court houses, etc., in ruins—all these things to be built up— the bonds and their Interest to be paid, besides all the other taxes, and the holders of bonds liring in luxurious idleness, with large incomes, and not one cent of tax to pay anybody

or for any purpose.

It was bad enough to fight for such cowards. It is bad enough to have it said we could not have whipped the South without the aid of those high flavored nigger troops who are

now to be our equals.

It is bad enough to have enormous taxes to pay to repair the damages time and war have wrought. But it’s worse than all to have to pay six hundred millions a year of interest to the men who hold bonds exempt from taxation ; in other words, to go to war, and then come home and pay ourselves for being shot

vd killed.

eastern district of North Carolina. 3Ve at once proceeded to investigate the affairs of the Bureau and the conduct of the officer in his district. Captain Seeley Wus interrogated as to whether he was interested in any manner, directly or indirectly, In the cultivation of lands, or in any other private business requiring the labor of freedmen. He answered that he was not, except indirectly in manufacturing lumber, having purchased, or being about to purchase, with two of his clerks, a saw mill about forty miles down the river. Dr. Rush, medical purveyor. United States Volunteers, stationed at Newbern, and a Mr. Potter, a citizen, were subsequently examined, both of whom stated that Captain Seeley, superintendent of the Freedmen’s Bureau for the district, entered into partnership with them, about December last, in a contract to cultivate the farm of Jlr. George Collier, a citizen of North Carolina, near Goldsborough. They commenced operations by planting seven hundred acres of cotton and soujc corn, this work ucccssarily requiring a large of freedmen. Dr. Rush stated that some two weeks since he had conditionally purchased the interest of Captain Seeley in this plantation, hut had not yet consummated the contract. 3Ir. Potter stated that about a fortnight ago, Dr. Rush, he himself, and others had conditionally purchased a part of the interest of Captain Seeley, and that Captain Seeley still owned an interest in the plantation. Without being able to determine from the testimony, how far Captain Seeley is | interested in thjs plantation. is perfectly evident that be prevaricated in h|s answer to

our interrogatory.

Captain Rosekranz, sub-agent of tho bureau at Newbern under Captain Seeley, and commissary of subsistence, as will be seen by reference to the paper hereto attached, is also engaged in cultivating a large plantation near Little Washington, 3i orth Carolina, with tho labor of freedmen, which be supplies with ra-

tions as a part of their wages.

In one of our interviews -with the freedmen at Newbern, some of them, who were em-

A number of the freedmen of Newbern expressed dissatisfaction at the manner in which this case had been passed over, without investigation; but as the plantation is quite remote from any line of public communication, we arc unable, owing to the want of time, to in-

On the 2d instant we left Newbern for Goldsboro, and on tho way stopped at Kingston long

I wear no badge of servitude advertising that I am a fit subject for shoulder strapped damns, cuffs, kicks, guard bouses,- etc. I’m a returned soldier — a poor man, who must work or starve. I love my country. I’m a better patriot than the man who asks the poor man to pay taxes and interest on bonds exempt from taxation, and I say boldly that the next time I shoulder a musket it will be for equal taxation, equal rights, and a free country, I don’t like the idea of repudiation, but if Government don’t tax her bonds, may I be d—d if I ever pay a cent of taxes, for my crippled limb is a better and more honorable bond than the Government ever issued.

Santa Anna.

There is a version of the Santa Anna programme, which we find in the New York Neictf Washington correspondence, and which

runs thus:

Those who are best informed upon the subject do not hesitate to say that there is a perfect understanding on the subject between 3Ir. Seward, Santa Anna and Senor Romero. It is said that Santa Anna will be here within ten days, and that Mr. Campbell is to be here to meet him and Senor Romero. It is said furthermore, and indeed I know this to he true, that great efforts are being made to get Congress to indorse the $50,000,000 loan. It is also said that this measure will be consummated within three weeks, and that Santa Anna will proceed at once to Mexico, accompanied by Mr. Campbell. Backed up by this Congressional indorsement, and under the quasi encouragement of the United States Government, on arriving in Mexico he will announce himself as the liberator of this country. and it is expected that his old popularity will rally around him both of the Lel>cral factions, and that he will lie joined by thousands of volunteers from the United States. It is expected that he will expel Maximilian and the French, and cause himself to be proclaimed President of the restored Mexican Republic. Dog Story.—The following occcurred in Newport, R. I., a few days ago: A fort soldier, about two-thirds drunk, was loafing abont the wharf, when a large Newfoundland dog, noted for bU sagacity and good nature came along, and the soldier commenced playing with him. which the dog appeared to relish equally with the other. At length the contest waxed warm, and the dog rearing upon his hind legs placed his fore paws on the breast of his antagonist, throwing him off his balance, and ♦he two fell into the dock together. The soldier either could not swim at all or was too drank to help himself, and was ha danger of drowning without assistance from the bystanders. At this juncture, however, he was seized by the dog, and borne, his bead above water, to a boat near by, into whieh he was lined-by two men, who also subsequently rescued the dog which had become exhausted by his exer-

at unusual hours, before the doors wore open for the transaction of business, and hauled off In carts and wagons, and that on one occasion they had followed a cart containing four barrels of pork to see If it went to the freedmen’s ration house. They ascertained that It did not. We investigated this particular case. Captain Rosekranz stated that he knew nothing about It. His brother, a citizen whom he has employed to act as commissary sergeant, stated that the four barrels of port alluded to were ordered by himself to be taken from the storehouse to the building from which rations are issued to the freedmen, but that the driver of the cart had made a mistake and took the pork to tho wrong place, a provision store kept by Mr. P. 3Ierwin, and immediately on discovering the mistake, he bad it rectified and the pork returned to the storohouse. Afterwards we called upon Mr.3Ierwln, who stated that about the time Mr. Rosekranz said the pork had been sent by mistake to his store, he borrowed four barrels of pork from Captain Rosekranz, which he bfid Pel yet returned. He also stated that Captain Rosekranz on that day, and after bis examination before us, called at his store and requested him to return the four barrels of pork immediately. Mr. Merwin further stated that he bad exchanged with Captain Rosekranz two barrels of brown sugar for two barrels of white sugar, and paid Captain Rosekranz five cents per pound for making the exchange. Opposite Newbern, on the South side of the Trent river, there is a settlement composed exclusively of freedmen, and containing a population of about four thousand, whose condition is truly deplorable. These unfortunate people came within our lines and were located there during the war. They aro living in small huts, built by themselves of lumber manufactured by hand; these huts generally containing but a single room, each of which is occupied, in most casos, by large families. The appearance of this settlement, recently scourged with the small pox, is well calculated to excite the deepest sympathy for the helpless condition of its inhabitants. The decrepit and helpless among them are supported by the Government of the United States, and the remainder procure an uncertain and scanty living from little Jobs about Newbern, from fishing from small boats, etc. The Rev. Mr. Fitz, formerly an army chaplain, presides over this colony as assistant superintendent of the bureau for tho Trent river settlement. This agent has exercised the n^ost arbitrary and despotic power, and practiced revolting and unheard of cruelties on the helpless freedmen under his charge. The outrageous conduct of this man was brought to our attention by a delegation of freedmen from the settlement, who called upon up and made statement in relation to his oppressions and outrages which we could scarcely credit. After hearing their statesments, we visited the settlement, convened the freedmen. investigated the charges against this mao, afid ascertained that he had been guilty of even greater wrongs and oppressions than had been complained of. In addition to the testimony of the freedmen, we took the statement of four intelligent ladies from the North, who are teaching school in settlement. Among the many acts of cruelty committed by Superintendent Fitz, we found that he had. in two instances, suspended freedmen with cords around their wrists, their feet not touching the floor, and kept them in this position, in one ca-ie four, apd in the other case six hours; that be sentenced » freedman to an imprisonment of three month* for a trivial offense, that of wrangling with hi* wife. Fie kept another man, who was arrested for debt, shut up in the black house—the prixm—for months, while his wife and children, reduced to abjeet destitution, died with the small pox, and took him from the prison undprguard and compelled him to bury Uis last-child in the eradle in whieh it died. On another occasion, v\ hen one of b|s guards reported to him that a colored woman had spoken disrespectfully of him. without even inquiring what the woman had said, he ordered her to be imprisoned until the next morning at nine o’clock, when she should be brought before him to answer for tho indignity. In one instance he imprisoned six children for ten days for playing in the streets on the Habbath day. He imposed a fine of sixty dollars upon an aged freedman for having told another freedmen that he was about to he arrested by Mr. Fitz. This poor old man, not having the money to pay the fine, w as imprisoned until the next day, when his son paid the same, with thr;e dollars additional, as jail fees. The lands upon which tho huts in this settlement are built is owned by certain heirs in North Carolina, and is held by the Freedmen’s Bureau as abandoned property. A tax, which Superintendent Fitz says goes to the support of the bureau, U imposed upon the owner of each hut for ground rent. If the occupants fall to pay this tax promptly, they are either turned out into the streets or imprisoned, and in some instances huts have been torn down by order of the superintendent for non-pay-ment of the tux. Ail business transacted by these people is taxed for the same purpose. Five dollars per month is levied upon every little shop; two dollars on each fishing boat; five dollars on each horse and cart, etc. The failure to pay these taxes when due, at once subjects the property taxed to confiscation. We were unable to ascertain what amount of money had been collected by Superintendent Fitz, or what disposition had been made of it. The imperfect manner in which the books were kept, would have rendered a lengthy and detailed examination necessary to arrive at even an approximate idea of the amount of money collected. In answer to a.question as to what justification there was for the oppressive burdens he had laid ui*on these people, Superintendent Fitz replied that Captain Seeley told him. “ I must have a thousand dollars a month from that settlement.” He also furnished us with a sworn statement, herewith forwarded, marked “ E,” in which he attempts to defend his conduct by stating that he acted in obedience to the orders of his superior officers in the bureau. In an interview we had with Captain Seeley, that officer evinced a desire to shield Superintendent Fitz, by stating that a great deal of what was said against him resulted from prejudice, notwithstanding that he had the sworn testimony before him that the charges against Fitz were true. While at Newbern, investigating the conduct of the bureau, and the reported oppressions of freedmen by this class of persons, our attention was called to the alleged killing of a freedman by a white employee of Colonel Whittlesey, assistant commissioner for the Bureau for North Carolina, and the Rev. Horace James, assistant quartermaster, on their plantation in Pitt county. 3Ir. James, while in the United States seivice, was superintendent of the bureau for the district now under charge of Captain Seeley, and is now an agent of the bureau, without pay, for the district in which he is planting. The cire jmstances under which this freedman was killed, as stated by Mr. James himself, are as follows: The freedman was accused of stealing provisions from the store of Mr. Whittlesey and Mr. James, and Was arrested, tried and convicted by 3Ir. James, as agent of the bureau, and was sentenced to dig ditches on their plantation. While working out this sentence, he ran away, and was pursued by 3Ir. James and his clerk, Boyden, who arrived at the bank of a river while the freedman was attempting to cross in a canoe. Boyden ordered him to return, telling him that if he did not he would shoot, and the freedman disregarding this order, Boyden fired. Boyden states himself that he thinks he hit him, and as nothing has ever been heard of the freedman since, it is generally believed in the neighborhood that he was killed and foil from the canoe into the river. These facts were stated in a letter forwarded to Colonel Whittlesey. who returned it to Captain Seeley with the following indorsement: “ Raleigh, March 28. 1866. “ Respectfully returned, as the affair seems to have occurred at night, and, as the body of the negro has not been discovered, it does not appear certain that the shot took effect No further action In the case seems to be called for. By order of “ Colokil Whittlezet, Assist. Com. “Beecher, Assist. Adj’t Gen.”

..... ui .u... point, is engaged . u working a large plantation on his own account and employs thereon quite a number of freed-

men.

At Goldsboro the superintendent, G. O. Glavis, chaplain Uinted States Army, is cultivating one farm on Government account, and is interested in cultivating two farms on his own account. This oflicer stated, in his examination before us. that he was not interested in the cultivation of plantations, except indirectly, by loaning money to a Mr. Brooks, a friend "of his from the North, who was engaged in planting; but we ascertained from Mr. Carr aud Lane, citizens of the vicinity of Goldsboro, that he is interested and joined with them in contracts for the cultivation of their plantations. He and his friend, 31r. Brooks, entered into a contract with 31r. Lane to furnish rations and pay for forty laborers, and to provide eight good mules. Mr. Lane oflered to furnish the land, to superintend in person the cultivation thereof, Htc crops to be equally divided, otic hu|f to Mr. Lane and the other naif to Brooks and Glavis. 31r. Lane states that the enterprise failed alter the freedmen had worked over two months; they then left, Brooks and Glavis having failed t° P a y them according to contract, The freedmen received for their lal>or a little clothing, such as coats, pants, shoes, etc., furnished by Captain Glavis, and but little or no money. A similar contract was made by Glavis ami Brooks with 3Ir. Carr, who stated to us that Captain Glavis is paying the hands in “a littie of everything, hut cllietfy in clothing,’’ We accertained by (he testimony of Messrs. Barham # Ballard, auctioneers, at Goldsboro, that they had sold at auction for Captain Glavis forty blankets, marked “ U. S.,” and that a quantity of clothing had been sent to Goldsboro for gratuitous distribution to the needy by a Freedmen’s Aid Society at or |n the vicinity of Rochester, New York. \\ T c learned also that he hud disposed of alafge amount of such clothing at private sale. The chaplain stated himself that he had received from such sales two hundred and sixty dollars, ($260,) though subsequently he asserted that the total cash receipts of his office from all sources amounted to one bqudred and twenty-six dollars and fifty cents, ($120 SO.) He kept no books or even memoranda of moneys received or expended. On the 4th instant wc arrived at Wilmington, the headquarters of tho bureau for tbe Southern District of North Carolina, of which Colonel Rutherford is the superintendent. The Colonel has been here but a short time, and is not yet fully acquainted with the operations of the bureau in his district. He was so unwell that ho was obliged to rptlre while we were engaged in examining his office, and we have not since conferred with him. 31ajor J. C. 3iann, assistant quartermaster and financial agent of the southern district, is engaged in the cultivation of a rice plantation a short distance from Wilmington, on which arc employed forty-flve freedmen. The major stated that while he would not object to making money, he engaged in this business to convince tho Southern people that the negro would

work.

Major Charles I. Wiekersham, sub agent of the bureau, whose headquarters arc at Wilmington, U also interested in the cultivation of a rice plantation Within h(s sub district, and he is to receive one-fourth of the crops from the same for compelling the freedmen employed on said plantation to work faithfully. He explained the manner in which he compelled freedmen to comply with their contracts, by stating that i..‘ pul them to work with ball and chain on (he streets of Wilming-

ton.

Without attempting to discuss the propriety of officers of the bureau iu the military service of the United States, who are paid by the Government for tbe performance of their duties, engaging in private business, ami employing freedmen for such purposes while coutrofling through their official positions that class of latior. we deem it our duty to state some of the effects produced both upon the officers themselves and upon the planters wjth whom they come In competition, Major Wiekersham, in contracting to furnish forty laborers to work on a rice plantation, !»ecomcs at once interested against the laborers, when he compels to labor, perhaps unjustly, when unfairly dealt with by the person working them on the plantation; aud, on their refusing to work, he inflicts upon them unlawful, and, for a breach of contract, unheard of punishment, putting them on chain gam;* as if they were convicted criminals. Colonel Whittlesey, or any other officer of less rank and influence in the bureau, who is engaged in working plantations rented for cash or on shares, Itecomes interested in securing a low rate of .wage* and ill making the most stijngciit labor regulation*, to the great detriment of the freedmen. They thereby give the sanction of the Government to the establishment of wages far below what the labor is really worth. Officers of the quartermasters’ and commissary departments who are thus engaged, are - objected to the temptation of appropriating to tie ir own use quartermaster's stores and rations to supply and pay their own laborers. Complaints Iia’vc been made to me by the | t int) t s that these agents of the bureau it-. -.er of their position* to obtain and control the best laltor in the State. There is no doubt that some of the 111 feeling manifested toward the bureau on the part of tbe planters is attributable to tills fact. The arbitrary power exercised by some of the officers and agents of the bureau tn making urre-ts, imposing fines and inflicting punishments, disregarding the local laws ami e»|>ecially the statutes of limitations, creates prejudice against the Government. If the officers were all honest and intelligent, with even limited legal information, it might be safe to trust tin m with this extraiT.linary power, but in many instances the oiliei t - do not posses* the slightest knowledge of law. At Goldsboro, the agi lit. Captain Glavis, imposed a line of tvYriiU-live dollars on one freedmen for stabbing another *o s. verely as to endanger his life, and when interrogated by us relative to tins ease he stated that he did not know enough about law to distinguish a civil from a criminal case. We arc satistied that the recommendation which we made in reference to the withdrawal of the otlicers of the bureau in Virginia, anil the transfer) lire to the officers comumudirg tho troop* of sueli duties as it may still be necessary to perform in connection with the freedmen, is equally applicable to North Carolina. Very respectfully, your obedient servants, James B. Stf.edman. Major Gen. Vol. J. S. Fullerton, Brig. Gm. Vol.
