The whoI country baa been mourning the un. timely end of the good man who uttered Ihwe noble ren ti menu, and hit character baa been held ap at in erery way worthy of imitation by bia countrymen, especially the christian and tol erant spirit he diipliyed toward tbofo who had been in open hostility to the goresnaatnt.

In striking contrast am tLcee sentiments with the cry fur rerenge, fur vengeance, for blood, which come from bitter and prejudicial partiaans, especially from that c'.ast cf stay at home patri ots who hare been fatteaiogVpon the miseries of the country for the past four years. The p"rit of good will toward all mankind animated the heart of the dead irawideut, while the spirit of hate tnduences those who wilf not be satisfied with anythicg short of the blood of their fellow men.

The action was brought by Leonard Sturterant ajrin?t A. II. Allen.

The charge of Judge Uiglow waa an impar tial reritw of the testimony. The accusation made to the United State marshal was a privi leget! one, if it were made in ide, even if it were false. If the worda were mallciou, however, and the malice had aggravate the injury of the plaintiff, they should give additional d imige. The verdict waa redered Friday morning in the following form: "The jury find for plaintiff, on the first count $50, and on the recond count 32 500 " We are told there was a sensation in court wbeo the verdict was announced. The second count is that which recited the fale information to the marshal. This verdict will act as a caution to fale ac cmers; especially to thoje who lightly assail their fellow citizets with grave imputations of dliloyalty and treason.

Cutbbert Baüitt, Eq .New Orleans, L: Sir. The copy of a letter aidres-rd to yourtlf by Mr. Thomas J. Duraat, his been shown to me. The writer appear to be an able, a duris eionate, and aa entirely nir.cere man. The rt part of the letter iT de voted to an effort to stow that the eectfci&n ordinance of Louiaiana waa adopted against the will of a msjority of the peo pie. This is probably true, and io that fact may be found soma matructioo Why df! tbey alio the ordinsace to go into c ffeciT Why did they tot exert thenuelve? Why ataod passive and allow taesnselvei to be troOden down dv a mi nority! Why did tbey not bold popular meet iocs, and have a convention of their own to ez cre3 and enforce the true sentiOiCnti of the stats? If pre organization waa agalnat them, then why sot do this, now that the United States army ia present to protect tbem ? The prlyzer the dead paly of the government in the whole struggle is, that this clus of men will do nothing for the governments-nothing for tbem selves, eicept demanding that the government hall not strike its enemies, lest they be struck by accident. Mr. Lurnt comrJaiiiS that, in various ways, the relation of master and slave ia ditutbed by tbe preeuce of our army, and be considera it par ticularly vexatious thst this, in part, is done un der cover of an act of congress, while constitu tional guarantees are euperadded on tbe plea of military cece-ity . Tbe truth ia, that whit i done and. omitted about slaves ia done and omitted on the same military neceity. It is military necessity to b.tve men and monej; and we cannot cat either, in audcient liumoers or amounts, if we keep from or drive from our iines slaves coming to tbem. Mr. Durant ctnnot be ignorant of tbe pressure uvthis direction, cor of cay efforts to bold- it with in bounds, till he, and such aa he, shall have. time to help themselves. I am not posted to speak urwlers'andirglr on the public regulations of which Mr. Durant com plains.. If experience shows any of them tobe wrong, let tbem be set right. 1 think I ein per ceivein the freedom of trsde which Mr. Durant urges, that he would relieve both friends and en eaiies from the prcnence of the blockade. By this be would serve tbe enemy more effectively than tbe enemy is able tu verve himself. I do not lay or believe that to serve the cxe mj ia the purpose of Mr. Darot, or that be is conscious of any purpose other thin national and patriotic ones. :ill, if there were a das of men who, having no choice of aidej in the con test, were anxious only to have quiet and comfort for themselves while it rage, aud to fall ia witb tbe victorious ride at the end of it, without lo to themselves, their advice as to the mode of conducting the contest would be precisely euch as his. He speaks of no duty, apparently think o none, resting upon union men. lie even tbiaka it Injurious to the union caue that tbey febould be restrained in trade and passage, without tak ing aides. They are to touch neither a sail nor a pumplive merely pissengers ("dead beads" at that) to be carried snug and dry throughout the storm and afely landed right side up. N ty, more even a mutineer is. to go untouched, le-t thcne sacred passengers receive an accidental ound. Of course, the rebellion will never bo sup-pre.-el in Louisiana, if the professed union men there will neither help to do it nor permit the government to do without their help. Now, I think tbe true remedy is very d'.llVr eut from what ij suggested by Mr. Durant. It doe. not lie in rounding the rough nngles of the war. The people of Louisiana who wi.h protec tion to pereou aud property, have but to reach forth their hands and take it. Lt-t them io good faith reinaugurate the national authority, and eet up a state government in conformity thereto under the constitution Tbey know bow to do it, and can have 'the protection of the army while doiag it. The army will be withdrawn so loou as such government can . dispense with its presence, and the people of the state can then, upon the old terms, govern themselves to their own liking. This ia verv simple and easy. If they will not do this if they prefer to hsz- ard all tor the sake of dettroviug the govern ment it is for them to consider whether it ia prpbable I will surrender the government to save them from Ioin all. If they decline what 1 suirrest, you scarcely need to ak what I will do What would you do In my position? Would vou drop the war where it i. or would you proa e?ute it in future with elder-stalk squ'rts, charged with roeewater? Would yon del lighter blows rather than heavier one? Would you give up the contest, leiving every available means unap plied? I am in no boastful mood. I shall not do more than I can, but I shall do all I can to save the government, which is my sworn duty äs well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing iti malice. What I deal with is too vat for nuli cioua dealing. Yours, very truly, Signed A. Lincoln. From Tie Philadelphia Ioquirer Opening of Uen. Urant's mansion.

Tbe mansion ia twenty-two feet front, one hundred and tire feet deep, and four stories in height. The front is of s indstoue. and has a balcony under tho firet story windows. In the interior the arrangements combiue elegance and convenience. There is a spacious hall and a htndsome staircase ascending from it to tbe fourth story, lighted by a window on the rocf. There is also a private staircise leading to the dining room and kitchen. Back of the chambers on the second and third doors are bath-rooms, which are elegantly fitted up Tbe ptrlor, about seventeeu by forty feet, 1 is superbly furnished, the carpets being ol vel vet, the furniture of walnut, and the cu.taics of the richest lace. The pitno and ail the articles of furniture in the room are in the highest style of mechsnicil art. Vases of an antique pit tern decorate the richly earved mtrb'e mantel, and an elegant clock, surmounted by a figure representing the historian, is in the centre of it. On the centre tab'e is a magnifi-ect copy of the bible. Pas-ing oa to the dining room are exposed to view, on an extension table, a silver tea set and Ch r.a dini er and tea set, together with pearl handled knives and silver frks A prominent figure on it is a lirgesilter candelabra and flower stand combined.

All portions of the bouse are furnished in tbe most complete minner, and whin the fs roily of the general takes pes?esion of it. which they are expected to do to day, they will find in the pantry some of the substantias of life and coal in the cellar with which to do the cook ing.

After his subordinate's failure in the unexplored bdJsef diplom cy, we expected ita- bis rightful prerogative tbtt the lieutenant gen eral would himelf receive the surrender ol Johnston, therenv adding one more to the many laurels which through all time will encircle hir name and memory. But (ten. Grant refrained from the course which who else in the wide world would not have pursued and left to hie brother officer the sole glory resulting from the tr umpp. Unlike other servants of tie people, be was too generous not to overlook a single fault in one ol his co-laborers; too fir removed from the spirit of rivalry to lend his aid in wounding the feeÜLg- or disparaging the refutation of one who had ac hicved ro tnuh for tbe republic.

Now. if ever, we should preserve those bulwarks h;ih are the protection ot individua liberty and virtue. A mob to hing a secession lawyer in Philadelphia, is an offspring of tbe same demagogue that incites a mob to resist the drat in New York. If General Butler can advise the treatment bv Ivnchiug process of Borthen disloyalists to day, there may be somebody pow erful eoouoQ to euget the aime application for General Butler to-morrow. Our regard for the cause of the republic will be best shown by our fidelity to the principles upon which its institu lions are founded. 1 here id no oueiise against the government that could furnish a pretext for a mob. which does not come within the ecope o legal statutes, and cannot be dealt with bv the courts. It is quite as effective discipline, ai.d far more creditable, to send a treason-talker to prison under sentence of a proper judge, as to have him pelted with mud aud rolled in the gut t?r by a boting crowd. Let us keep cool, and try to reason our way to conclusions. 1 ho president was murdered; but neither the democratic parly of the north, nor any considerable number of people in the south were parties to the crime. Poibly there is a conspiracy to continue the unholy work of slaughter; but it is bv no means probsble thatit is participated in by many persons there is cot a ghoul at every table." A good m my men have said foolish things in the past, which they heartily regret now. It does not follow that ev ery one who has suffered party bigotry to lead him a Io2g wav in opposition to the f,oveinment, is a traitor. On the contrary, ninety-nine out ol everv hundred men in the free states are pttriot ic at heart, and desire the union to be maintain ed. A good many ihink those measures would preserve the republic which really would destroy lt. 1 heir mistake is deplorable and often con densnabie; but it does not folio that it justifies mobbing and hanging thera.

To-day there is a strong and wide spread fear that peace ia afar off. hence this grett change? It come from tbe assaeaiaation of Abraham Liucoln, and from your taking bis place. 1st. For, while the inecss&tt demand for a rigorous and bloody policy toward tbe cot quered rebels met with no re?po&se in tbe temaikatle kindness and compassion of Mr. Lincoln, it is appreheodel tbit there miy be qualities iu your self to which such a policy, unless condemned by jour judgment, would be entirely welcome. Then, by your contact with the rebellion by your perrO.ial observation of its crimes, and es pecially by what you and your fam ly and friends bid suffered irom tho-e crime your temper, uales roarvclou'ly controlled, could cot have failed to be exciud. and to call for the severest pun:ehment on the leaders of tbe rebellion. 21.. While Mr. Lincoln was yet alive, govern ment was incessantly called on by press and public meeting, bv eeimons saturated witb the vindictive and bloodthirsty snirit of tire Jewish theology, and by veices innumerable, not to spare the.e letdmg rebels. No wonder then, that the manner of his death is made ue of to increase the thirst for their blood. For aburd as is the charge, that the assa-in wa their tool, it never ihe!e-g gains expended credeuce. Tbey all knew Mr. Linocln's characteristic clemeucy, and that ihe terms of the peace be was intent on were ex ceedingly mild. Hence, how insane is the sup position that any of them sought his death! Bat why should not government rctu-e to adopt, or, even for one moment, to listen to this rigoioui and bloody policy? Why houll not government deal with the conquered in lb s war ss it would deal with the conquered, were i:?ue cesefut, in a war with Mexico? The answer is because it is a civil war. Uut is it not eucb a cinl war as the ablest public!; hold thould be conducted by the rules of international war; ood forbid tht now, whea the tide of war t?et strongly ia our favor, we should be guilty of thrusting ihe constitution into the place of the code of war, and of holding ar.d try ing aa traitors those whomwe none the less really, if indirectly,) agreed to "regard but as enemies; and whom, by all the conclusive rea sons of the case, aside from such agreement we are bound to regard in that light only. We mutt not be guilty of this bed faith. We mu-t uot break this colemn bargain. The south would hate us for ii! Tbe world would de-p'.st us for it 1 And would not the north herself, if uol despising us for it.be, at least, fearfully di vided in regard to it? Greatly ibould we all love our country. But there is ouo thing we should all love more and that is fair dealing 0i country rijihi !" not "our country wroQ; !" sl Olid be our motto. 1 referred at the beginning of my letter to tbe apprehension that peace, which, only a few dtv ago, seemed very neir, is now quite remote. I cannot doubt that it is if the eevere policy to ward the conquered rebels, which so many sre calling for, etiall be adopted. In that event, hardly in my dav, or even in jours, will pence return to our afuVted country. For once let ir be known that the leading rebels, who shall fall into our bauds, will be doomed to punishment, be it deuh. imprisonment or exile, and iuime-ii s-ttly, among their followers, sympathy with 'hem and rage agtinst us will know no bounds. Tens of thou-auds will bu n with vengeance, and will care for nothing but to gratify it. This will be true as well of persons under parole a ol others. In that ate of things a guerrilla war fare would ensue, which, if not pacitied by con cessions, and euch concessions, too, as would tatilly if.va.le national and human rights, micht run through many years, hsrr.issing and wasting our armies, aud adding fearfully, if not fatally, to our already vast debt. It must not tie forgotten that it cost our nation many years, many lives, and thirty or forty millions of dollars to put an b 1 to the guerrilla warfare carried on in Florida by a bandlul of indians and negroes. I have glanced at the painful conequencs of barrh and unfair treitmentof our conquered enemy. But how b'e-sed would be the corse quences of a wire and kind treatment ot that en emy ! Then the outb would be at peace with tho north; would s on learn to like her; aud would soon welcome the tens ot thousands of families that would immediately begin to erni grate from the north to tbe south. Then the north aud the eouth (slavery hiving passed away) would rapidly become one in interest, and one also in character. Moreover, the whole work would be blest by the termination of this most h irrid war in a peace so full of reason, jus tice and love. Christianity would be boiiored sod advanced by a pejee made so striLinglv in kir own spirit. Iu that epiiit we cannot ehed oje crop of the blood of our eubducd foe. If possessed of it, we shall forgive and forcet the wrongs done to the north; and shall feel that tbe Duth has suffered enough, and that e-he uVerves to be soothed and comfened, and no more alHici ed by us. Largely on your wisdom and magnan imity do I found my warm hope of seeing this war give place to bloollet-s, kind, forgiving, aud therefore immediate peace. Bat this ie not all for whic'i I look to jou. Now, whilst we have this tresh sense of one of the worst wars now, whilst we can contrast its ugliness with the beau tiful peace, wh ch, unless we th'ut it from us, is just at haud now is tho time for our nation to be the fist of all nations to propose an end to national wars by means ot an international con gress, whose decisions upon the disagreemeuta and controversies between nations shall be final. Yours be the glory to ftvor a meisure fraught with more honor to God and more happiness to man than any or een all other measure I Yours b the glory of identifying your administration with the ou-e of international peace!

Wickham, of Hanover, a prominent politician of Virginia, who his never identified hira with secession, has published a letter on reconstruction in which several new idea.s are broiched. He say: Almost every one in Virginia accepts the re -ult aud is prepared to contribute his portion to ward the advancement of the common good ot the country. The few that do not, will, if per mitted, 1 doubt n t, .ve their tOuLtry for their country's good. AM, then, that I belief to be necessary for the full development of the union feeling in Vir inia, is to re-establish the means of intercourse and interchange of opinion among the people of the state, and thus give it an opportunity to ex hibit it.-tll. and I have r.o doubt but that the ate will stand forth prominent for her priue in the national glory, apprecialiou ot the national prosperity, admiration for the national power, atd devotion to the n itional iuterests all heigh tened by lh terrible ordeal through which our peor le bae passed. Wiih a redy return to a proptj allegiance to tbe Cuited State- overnmeut. the people hould at once be Calle: .?on to participate iu the uov ernment.both sire and federal, thus bein: nude to realize, as soon a poa-ible. that they are their own government, and giving them th it trau quility which ii tbe u-ry life of an agricultural community. The e is mwch for the ttate government to do, to aid in tbe re-e-t ibi shment of prosperity ar.d happiness. It has been for the four years past utterly diverted from its legitimate duties, and consequently our whole system his become de ranged. I be three grett points of state policy tint re iuire immediate attention are the reorcanizition of our svstem of lator, the resuscitation of our itternal imwovement system and the establish ment of a financial and mouettry ss etn. I do not propose to go into anv discussion of thee subject, bat merely mention them tos-hnw the importance to the welure of the people of th--taie of an early recognition on the part of the ieneral government of some authoiit.es to ex ercie trie tunctions r tne state government: tor, afier all. it is to the state govern rami thtt we must look for that legislation which will put in operation the machinery by which ihe ener gies of the peop'e will be directed to the geueral improvement of the country. Another most important subject which will de mand the early tni earnest attention of the state autl.o I h?n !nvetedwith governmental pow ers, in the question of a partition of the state I cannot bear to contemplate tbe fact that Virgin ia should lose the noblest part of her ancient in m. mon, and I cannot but hope that the immediate cues for the rartition hsrinz been removed, the peop'e of West Virginia, ia common with ourselves, will tub to see reunite.1 every portion of our old commonwealth, and tbey willcouilder favorably our overtures for that object. I am . aatisfied that, by the reptpf of our .'kes of communication, the re establ ahment of our p-et toutes, the recognition of a governor of the state, the regular meeting of our county courts, and tbe convening of a legislative body at 'parly a day aa possible, we could, in an in credibly short tim etour whole system smooth ly at work, and ficd our people better pleased with the government than they ever bad been, and far mrecaoable of appreciating the bless ings that will flow from it? Nor do I believe that a vital blow has been icfl cted on tbe properity of the state by the ef fects of the war. . It is trot that ber loss ia men and means has been enormous; even had there been stagnation alone for the past four yeers the effect would have been serious; but ber people htve shown an energy, which, bad it been pro perly directed, would have advanced her material interests to very h'nh degree of pro-perty; thai energy will now be pripeily directed, and the whole population of tbe s'ate, wiih one accord, will bend themelve3 to the effort to bring the atate forward to the highest täte of mental, moral, and physical improvement. Ooe unquestionable benefit will flow to tbe state from tbe ordeal through which it has pa-e l the people will select wier counselors thao those who have heretofore so grossly roismaoged their public afftirs. indy Johnson's ipnnk." When we were at Naahville, seven ter ago, anecdotes of the coolness and courage of Gov. Johnson were amotg the current coiu of couver r-ation. Ouegeutlemin, a political opponent of the governor, an eje witness of tbe occurrence, told me that a placard waa pes ted iu the town one morning, announcing in the well known lan guage of old Tennessee, that Andrew Johnson was to be hhot "on fight." Friends of the gov ernor a-sembled at his house to escort him to the State House. "No," said he. "gentlemen, it I am to be shot at, I want no mn to be In the way of the bullet " He walked alone, and with unusual deliberation, through the streets to bis official spmments on Capiol Hill. Another eye-wiiuess reined a similar story. He was announced to speak on one of tbe excit ing questions ot the day, and loud threats were uttered that if be dared to appear be should not leave the ball alive. At the appointed hour be ascended to tbe platform, ai.d, in advancing to the defk. 1 iid his pistol upon it." Liethen ad dres-ed the audience In terms as near like the following as our informant could recoiled: "Ftllow citizens, it is pro; er when freemen assemble for the discussion of. important public interests, that everything should be doue decent ly and in order. I hare been informed that part of the business to be transacted ou tbe present occasion is the assas-ination of the persou who now bis the honor of addressing you. I beg re spectfully to propose that this be the first busi ness in order. Therelore, it any man has come here to night for the purpose indicated, I do not say to him, let bim spetk, but let him shoot." Here he paused, with his riht hnd on his pistol, and the other holding open bis coat, while with his eyes he blandly surveyed the assembly. Alter m ruse of half mir.u e he re-umed: "Geuileraen, it appears that I have bern mis informed. I will now proceed to address you on the u'yeol that has called us tojetf;cr " Which he did, with all his a customed bold-ne-. and vivacity, r.ot sparir p bi adversaries, but givinethem pJenty of pure Tenneec. Tailor a he was, he is n i si ob. S jm after he was iniuurattd governor of Tennes-ee, a hieb fdlk-ial ot the state, who had been bred a black HUiiüi, presented him wi h a get of elegant fire irons, made with his own hands. " I will givo him a return in kind," remarked the governor He bought some of the finest black broad cloth thtt Nashville could luruish, procured a set of tailors implements, got the j ilge's measure from his tailor, ai.d made a complete t-u'u of t lo hes, setting evtry stitch himself, n? d present ed them to his friend. I he work, we .are told, was all done in the tovernor's room in the state house The happy wearer of the garments oro- nounccd them a perfect fir; and when we herd the story, in lcTitf, he had tTieni still.
