It., F. AND A. L.,
Washington, May 21, 1866,
In order to answer numerous in
quiries from officers, agents and
others, and if possible prevent mis
understanding wltb regard tochanire
of orgaaisalion in this Bureau, this
circular ii issued.
First The commissioners recom
mended sometime since that the
functions of the military command
er of the State and Assistant Com
missioners be performed by the
same officer; wherever practicable,
tins is oeimrcnectcn, as in Virginia
and Mississippi.
It la not done in condemnation of
the Assistant Commissioners, who
have labored bard and successfully,
but to secure the more prompt en
forcement of administration than
can otherwise be done.
Second The Commissioner calls
attention to all officers officially to
the reports in circulation as to the
acta of severity and cmelty toward
freedmen on their part.
At to the carelessness in return
ing their monthly accounts and oth
er offences every officer or agent al
ready accused shall hnve the oppor
tunity of a thorough vindication
belbre a court-martiul, but the oc
casion for such trials are to be de
precated, and they must be fore
stalled by a thorough system of in
spection and a prompt removal of
every unfaithful officer.
Third Special attention is again
called to tbe difficult duty of caring
for tbe indigent Wbere intense
anxiety prevails to get rid of the
Bureau, surely Stato and County
officers will make some arrange
ments to relieve the General Gov
ernment of this expense. If tbe
County officers will adopt measures,
the Government farms 'which are
now to mnch complained of, can bo

In order to meet an emergency in
which the whole system of labor
was deranged, the. Commissioner
orged the forming of Joint compa
nies tor the encouragemcut of the
emigration of those accustomed, to
free labor, to as to afford promptly
at many examples as possible of the
successful employment of negroes
under a free system.' Apparently,
In kerning with Oiese regulations a
few pffioert have invested their own
means, Wlth .citlMus, in the plant
ing interest. ' I know of no law, or
regnhnion of the array or of this
jWreaa against this, yet It will al
most inevitably load V corraptioir.
It bat already too bitter accusations.
Hereafter such investments, within
their own jnrisdiUoa,b officers
on doty in this Burnt-rare strictly
prohibited., i ,i O- CLIIawauk,

those pests of the earth who, under
the pretense of religion and philan-
tlirophy, are ieeclng lite nogroes of
all their earnings, aud teaching tbe
old and the young to hate the whiter,
and inciting then to do all maimer
of annoy ing things we mean " x an

beads of the negroes to go," two
days aftr)tO flie same cumetory to
decorate the graves of the Union
" school manns " and of a Captaiu
Bryant and a Mr. Ebehart, they
tried to keep it seerou (if not con
scious of some impropriety why the
advice to observe secrecy j) '' but ii
leaked out The tale is thus told
by the Augusta Chronicle and Sen
tinel: "Our community were consider
ably excited yestordar afternoon by
the rumors, which were .in circula
tion, or uu apprehended difficulty
at the City Cemetery, between tbe
citv Suthoritia and n nivtinn of the
black people, headed fv Capt Bry
ant, n Mr. Kbrhai-t, and sotuo other
white people (not cituenn.) who
had gone there with a view todoco
rate the gmven of mouio Federal
soldiers (white) who' are there in,
terrcd. The tacts, as we hare been
able to obtain them, arc as follows :
A number or negroes or both sexes,
and all gen, under the instigation
and by tho advice of the white men
before mentioned, aud some others
connected with the colored schools,
had been Induced to collect in a
considerable body to repair to the
Cemetery, w 1th flowers, to pay hon
ors to the Federal (white dead,)
there buried. This Intention on the
part if C:,pl, Bryant and his coadju
tors coming to tho car of tho city
authorities (imofliclully.) the Mayor
with Bouie of our moiit prominent
and cotiHcrvative eitiwim called on
Gen. Bratiuau, the efficient aud
polite commaudcr of the depart
ment, and laid before him the infor
mation flilrh ilioy had received.
Wo Icaru that the General express
ed bis disapprobation of the con
templated movement in tho strong
est terms and assured the Mayor of
bis sympathy with him and tha
people of the city at tUc most unpar
alleled procedure, but said that he
had no power to forcibly interfere
lii the movement, unless violence
was threatened or commenced.
That he believed the .movement
would ouly be productive of harm,
ffad that what influence be possess
ed would be exerted to prercut the
display.
"Tbe Mayor then called iu com
pany with tho other gentlemen upon
Gen. Tillflon, and made a similar
statement to him. He informed
Gen. Tillson that uo application
bad been made to him or uuy of the
officials for pcrmissiou to use the
cemetery for this celebration, and
that, as the chief executive officer of
the city, he should interpose the
power of the city to prevent a con
summation of the proposed cere
monials. Gen. Tiilson, wo are in
formed, assured the Mayor that he
was totally opposed to the whole
movement, and that, in his opinion,
it could ouly lead to an estrange
ment of the two races, and, doubt
less, would arouse and excite bitter
feelings ngainiit the blacks. Uo also
informed the Mayor that he hud no
power to prohibit the contempla
ted movement, and no force at his
disposal, if he had the power."
The demonstration was prohibited
by tbe Mayor, and flio police were
stationed at the cemetery to pre
vent it. (For this our authority ia
the Tribune). It was no more the
wish of the Mayor and peoplo of
Augusta to prejeiit the friends of
Union soldier from paying honors
to their remains, than it was the be
nevolent doBi(jjj)f t he school inarms
to render thoseTionori. The object
of tho latter was a mischievous ob
jectit was to jjet up ill filling, and
to put the negroes forward to re
buke the ladies. Else why did they
fix upon a day so near to that on
which the while demonstration took
place ? Tlit Tribune, which can see
nothing to condemn in the conduct
of these pestilent female nuisances,
nothing to approve in the conduct
of the Mayor of Augusta, says,
"That is Southern chivalry, mag
nanimity and loyalty all rolled into
one," ad ting :
"It is humiliating to be obliged
to add that the ivfusul of the rebel
Mayor toailow Union graves to be
garlanded with flowers was sus
tained by two Union officers by
General Brnnnstt, commanding the
District, and by General Tillson,
whoU Comtniss'lonor of the Freed
men s Bircsu for Georgia! These
two otiitSdlB united in attempting
to restrain the slight tribute of re
spect to thoir former comrades, ou
the ground thatitwbnld create III
feeling betwedu the whites and
blacks ! It would be charitable to
disbelieve them' capable of such an
act, but both the rebel and the loyal
accounts agree on this point, and
General Brannan even regretting
that be had no troops at hand to
prevent the demnnstration by force.
While sacb officers command at the
South, what reason is there to hope
that the bitterness and hatred shown
by tbe rebels' Will be softened?
What right have we to demand that
the rebels shall respect a flnsr which
Union Generals combine to insult?"
It should be borne in mlud that
ever since the close of tbe war the
most active search, conducted by
officers and men detailed for the
purpose, has bee u mode .for (he

The Tribune' it located In New
York ; Generals Brannos and Till
son aro statioued in Augusta, fend
yet the editor of the tribune as
sumes to know more about the af
fair, which happened right under
their eyes, than they do, and has the
audacity to condemn thoir conduct !
What docs the Tribune mean by
the last sentence what right have
we to demand that the rebdts shall
respect a flag which Union Generals
Combine to insult 'f Does it mean
that the mob of "school manns" and
negroes bore or represented the
flog of tho United States? It does
mean that or it means nothing, aud
it is a false suggestion. They did
not propose to go in the name of
the government or under its flag,
but hi their own name ; of their
own motion, and for no other pur
pose than to create a difficulty, and
they were foiled by those officers
to whom the honor of the flag was
entrusted, and who have done them
selves liouor by refusing to prosti
tute it to mischievous and partisan
purposes.
fir The Missouri Supremo Court

nies aro not responsible for error

neglect is shown. A suit to recover
damages for substituting the word
rail for sail, in a order to ship salt

ia favor of the telegraph company.
Taa LU Sarkat AcllTa.
Generals Fullei ton and Stcadmau
have evinced such a spirit of im
partial justice, that tbe Radicals
have taken alarm. They have gone
to work to discrcditall the Commis
sioners can say or do. Their report
ou the state of affairs in Virginia
aud North Carolina, and their ex
posure of some of the speculations,
malfeasances and cruelties of offi
cials connected with the Freedmen's
Bureau, have so frightened and in
censed tho politicians of the negro
school that they have become stim
ulated loa more than usual activity
in their unscrupulous efforts to dis
credit these gentlemen and their re
port. Forney has been called Into
service, and he is now endeavoring
to smut them all over. The Radicals
have found it necessary to discredit
the commissioners and their report,
and they will leave no means unem
ployed to accomplish it We learn
General F. D. Sewall ' has com
menced making an inspection of the
Bureau in North Carolina by order
of General Howard, tho king bee
in the negro gum. General Howard
is himself busy writing letters to
break the force of the startling re
port of those comnutxioncrs. , For
ney calls upon Congress to appoint
a committee "to examine Into tha
condition and operations of the
Bureau throughout tbe South." The
meaning of all this is that the Radi
cals cannot stand the truth, and find
it necessary to hunt up hireling wit
nesses to contradict it Ariel was
not more serviceable to Prospero
than the emissaries and agents of
the Freedmen's Bureau those
"provident men," as General How
ard calls them, who, when that
Bureau ceases, will have no means
of support, and are hence trying to
make a good thing out of lb are to
the Radicals. '

Gov. Foole is the modern " Ben-

or die." He has recently furnished
to the New York Ledger a copy of
thu following letter from President
Johnson. It appears in that nanor
buried midway in Mr. Foote's com
ments, which we omit ; .
Executive Mansion, )
Washington, D. C, Aug. 15, 1865.J
Oov. W. L. bbii kry Jackson :
I am gratified to see you have or-
Sanized, your convention without.
Ifficulty. I hope thut, without
delay, your convention will amead
your State constitution, abolishing
slavery, and denying to all legisla
tures the power to legislate that
there it property in man j also that
they will adopt the ainemlmsnt to
the constitution of the United States
abolishing slavery. If you could
extend the elective franchise to all
persons of color who can read Uie
constitution of the United States in
English, and write their names, aud
to all persons of color who own
real estate valued at not less than
$250, and pay taxes thereon, you
would completely disarm the adver
sary and set an example the other
States would follow. This you can
do with perfect safety, and you will
thus place tho Southern States, in
reference to free persons of color,
upon the same basis with Uie free
States. I hope and trust your con
vention will do this, aud as a conse
quence the radicals, who are wild
upon negro franchise, will be com
pletely foiled In their attempt to
keep the Southern States from' re
newing their obligations to the
Union by not accepting their sena
tors and representatives.

nicated to the convention.' It was
said the telegraph wires had broken
down ; and, singular as it may ap
pear, tne wires gavo oat juU be
fore reaching tbe ncgrosnffrage por
tion. Tho reason of the strain
upon Uie wires is now accounted
for. Why was uot that dispatch

which he alwaya' wore' in taking his
rides to UiejlnctaronndRlchtnoiid.
Subsequently the gentleman had
aplcaesrit Interview with Mrs.' Jef
ferson Davis, It tfi'tf. residchce of
Df. Cooper, the post Surgeon. He
found Mrs. Davis "at home," In an
apartmcotN:oiDfortnbif, tliough not
elegantly 'furnished, "and she did
not seem to waut foi'nnyUiihg. Her
conversation wat tbe sumo thut so
oftfen charmed visitors when she,
t'.e wife of the president of a brave
nation, struggling for their liberUos,
dispensed the courtesies and hospi
talities of tho presidential munition.
She spoke freely and fccjlngly of the
health of Mr. Duvls. Tliougli weak
from lomf confinement and want of
change of air, hit general health, she
thought, was good, and his spirits
had revived since she had boon per
mitted to visit nnd be nigh him.
Mrs. Davis spoke- warmly nnd
frequently of the kindness of Dr.
CooiH-r ; also, of all tho officers of
the furt and post She was drctsod
In black silk, her trstial toitet in
IUchinoud, and without ornameut,
and seemed happy in the privileges
allowed her. He youngest daughter,
Gcorglc, is with her, a beautiful lit
tle girl, with somewhat of sadnes
in her eyes and face. The other
children, Jcffy and an elder daugh
ter, aro in Montreal, Canada. Mrs.
Davis' old dining-room servant,
Frederick, who waited at tho Presi
dential iimnn'oii, is also with her.
He snys he never Intends to leave,
her, ami is exceedingly faitliful and I
attentive, almost auticipatiug her
wants. Ho accompanied Mrsbavin
and the children in thoir journey to
Charlotte, N. C, previous to tho
full of lUchmond, aad heedless of
the allurements of the Yankees, has
remained true to the eud.The South
ern peoplo will not forget this faith
ful negro, who, though a freedman
by the result of tho war, elects to
remain the trustworthy servant
still.
Mrs. Davis' horse, Mary, is also
at tho fortress, in attendance upon
little Georgie. She, too, is very de
voted and attentive to the health,
and wants ef ber mistress, by which
name she yet addressee her. Mrs.
Davis, in the course of conversa
tion, spoke kindly and feelingly of
the sympathetic expressions of the
Southern people, and their condo
lence expressed for herself-and hus
band, touching the- situation in
Which the latter had been placed by
the untoward fortunes of War. Sho
expressed a desire to see some of
the leading Southern newspapers,
and in this connection alluded to
the lUchmond Examiner, express
ing her gratification at iU altered
aud sorted tone of common t upon
the ex-President For this we claim
no credit Mr. Davis is a prisoner,
not a fulou, aud so long as it is at
tempted to make him one, ho will
find in this journal a champion and
defender to the last
In the course of one of Mrs. Da
vis' interviews with her husband,
Mr. Davit expressed himself as
much relieved and gratified by the
fact that an indictment against him
had been found. He now hoped
for a speedy trial ; he was easy in
his mind as to the result Mrs. Da
vis was of the opinion that tho im
provement in his spirits, though ap
parent' from her first coming, lmd
Increased since the announcement
of the finding of tho indictment
against bira.
Some of the unpleasantness mid
petty annoyances that have iiiude
Mr. Davis' prison so irksome to a
great caged mind like his have been
done away with by tbe authorities
at Washington. Mrs. Davis is per
mitted to visit him any Uine from, 10
A, M. to 12 M., and after 1 P.
M. to Uie hour of closing Uie gates,
which is 0 o'clock.

JctL Davis, I am iaformed, on
reading this morning tho exclusive
publication in the Ilorald of tho
late indictment found against him
expressed great suVprisc at the
brevity aud comparative simplicity
of the document. He evidently ex
pected to find it a much mote elabo
rate paper and embodying a great
multiplicity of charges against him,
including not only the gravo one of
Inciting and directing the rebellion,
but the grave accusations of instl
gaUng the assassination of Fresldont
Lincoln, conducUng the- Canada
raids, setUng on foot tho whole in
cendiary schemes against Northern
cities, authorizing and controlling
the piratical expeditions on the
high seas, that played such havoe
with our maritime com toe roe, coun
selling and abetting the inhumani
ties pracUced upon oar prUonert-u
in short, as being tbe bead and
front and impersonation of Uie re
bellion, and alt tbe battles and loss
of lives and waste of money,' and
tufferiofft and miseries irrowluir out
out it Seeing but Uie tingle count
that is brought against nun, I am
assured, gives him more abiding
nope or a ravoraoie result to him
self in hit coming trial. Each day
only increases his anxiety for the
speedy approach of the tune of hit
trial. ' -. ' .,
