if I did take part; I am disfranchised." All persons, residents of the State for twelve months, and at the- time of registration twenty-one -years of age, are undoubtedly entitled to vote, unless before the war they beld office and took- the oath of office, Ac Persons who took psrt In the rebellion are not disfranchised unless they were office holder pravioua to tie war. Thus far there c-tu be no doubt. Offlce-, bolder before the war are the only class of person) in the State who oaght to doubt or to hesitate. Ia regard to these, it is hoped that Gen.

The occasion of my present visit is rendered interesting by the trial oi John 11 Hurrntt and the Com mencement of the Law Department of the Columbian College. Surratt wat brought out oa trial on Moa dav. the 10th but a jury was not em naonetled untit Saturday. nbeStb.

The Court room was crowded all the while, highly odorous of the unwashed citizens of Alrican descent. By special favor of the Marshal at some timet, and at others of the Judee. I was allowed admission. Surratt is a delicate, feeble young man, with auburn hair, sandy coatee, neatly dressed, evidently but littlaamted for the active duties of the Pope's body guard, or for the rougher fare and drill or the Egyptian zouave, mi a more slender frame and melancholy aspect, he much resembles the excellent Clerk of the Superior Conrt of Bertie County, Mr. Winston.

We were painfully shockrd at seeing him brought into the Court room in handcuffs, which the. sturdy bailiff unlocked and clinked aloud inoat defiantly, with an air that seemed to say "what a brave man I am!" The testimony has elicited aorne incident hitherto unknown to the public in this painful affair. The prisoner's counsel, Messrs. Bradley, of Washington, and Judge Merrick, late of Chicago, are rendering their client faithful service. Collision with op posing counsel are sometimes so sharp that the Court interfere and orders their "private difficulties to be settled elsewhere." More blood may yet flow after the Courts have disposed of Jno.

H. Surratt The Jury is admitted, generally, to be a very fair one, and from all tbat I could learn in Court, and out, my opinion iathat th prisoner will escape the baiter by a compromise of live or ten years domiciliation ia some penitentiary. The annual Commencement' of the Law-Department of the Columbian College took place in Washington on the 10th -mat. The spacioua auditorium of the National Theatre was crowded almost to suffocal ion. There were sixty-one graduates, among- them a'son 61 your noble State, Captain Woodburv WhtSler.

The Columbian Colleee. lone depressed, has attained a high position among the literary institutions of ma country, its meaicaiuepanment, wuicu ha tent forth some of the most eminent physicians of the country, is in the full tide of success. No one should visit Washington without ffoine to see the Agricultural Department in the same building with the Patent Busy as 1 was, tatiguecl, oppressed witn heat, (for on Saturday of my sojourn several persons were struck to the earth with coup toleU) I went through the office twice.

On neither occasion did I tee the Commissioner, Hon, Isaac Newton, who waa very ill and since my visit has died, but I found the chief clerk Mr. Stokes, very attentive, ready to answer all my questions, and to impart information on every subject connected with this valuable department.

In addition to this, as the National IntellU genetr justly remarks, the publication of the dispatch "bv telegraph from New Orleant simultaneously with its transmission by te'-egraph to Washington, was an act of intolerable insolence.

Grant," If officert of the army may, with impunity, querulously object to the orders of their superiors, and even make a display of contumacy, by telegraphing it to the country, there must be an utter subversion of all military discipline. Even worse than this ia the virtual recognition, by General Sheridan, of the leaders of a party aa superiors to whom he is to report, as weH aa to bis commanding officer, and whose approval is to lie courted rather than that of his military chief."

Himry Wiltnnt Chief Military Committee, United Ht'ttet Senate Mi Drab Sir It is probable, in view of existingncircumttanccs, that Congress will convene in July. It is proper, therefore, I should inform you that the appropriation of $,100,000 to execute the reconstruction sett is altogether inadequate.

I am iufoim- ed Hint my estimatei for April and May are less than tuose ot other district commanders. Indeed, the whole sum was more than ab sorbed by the estimate for May. For the Carolinasat least $500,000 will be required. 1 have applied to the Navy and Treasury Departments for certain facilities, which, in view of the small appropriation, I presumed would be granted, but niy requests have not been favorably considered. I understand that the Secretary of the Navy assigned as hit reason that no aid must be expected from that Department in the execution of the reconstruction acts of Congress.

The Secretary of the Treasury expressed his de-tire to do all he oould, but did not feel at liberty to make any disbursements for objects not precisely within the jurisdiction of. bis Department. It ia us'ial, I believe, when the appropriation for an object authorized by Congress it insufficient, to make neces sary expenditures and trust to a "(lenciency bill but in the execution of these acts this course will be the principal disbursements are, for the services of persons who depend upon their pay for support. I have the honor to suggest for your consideration, and ot your colleagues as well, that the interests of the public service require, without delay, a further appropriation to execute the acts of Congress lor the government of the rebel Hespectfully SICKLES, Major General Commanding QBNE1UL SnERIDAtrH PROTEST AGAJN8TA Jie-OPEXlJfG OF TUB REGISTRY LISTS ASIIARPAROU- MEST AGAIWf THE ATTORNEY QKNERAL OPIMOy.

I have given the State two and a half mouths, and registration will be ex hniiBteri bv that time. I did not feel war ranted in keeping up boards of registration at large expense to suit new isauet coming in at the. eleventh hour. The registration will be completed in Louisiana at the time speci fied, unless I am ordered to carry out the law under Mr. Stanbery's interpretation, which practically, in registration, a opening a oroaa aaa macadamized roau ior perjury and fraud to travel on, I do not see why my registration should be dependent ou the time when other dis trict commander get turougn.

Ik VJosei.h u. ACKBOS, O.rk. Jnne7-wCw nity, and of a considerable trade, especially in tobacco. Journeying towards Richmond, by way oT flie" South Side' as far as ti "Junction, tne traveller is.uiet by constant and repeaUfd evidences of the "passage of the armies ot Genu. I.ec and Grant more than two years ago.

How vividly those days of unusual trial were brought back by these scenes. Here is where a line drew up, tired and hungry, to check "old Phil," in bin ubiquitous career. There is the blessed spot we drew our Vast ear of corn betore the surrender! Earthworks, here and there, mark the scenes of conflict. No one who has passed this road, will ever forget the "high bridge" the same structure that was partially destroyed by Gen. Lee (Win.) it is 'now repaired and is as "skeery" as ever.

The bridge (leVi- eighths of a mile in length, anil "high nt -cordin," though I do not know how high. Nor will' any passenger on the South Hide ever forget the exhilarating jolting of linear, aud the constant trepidation, from reading the accounts of recent accidents on the line and the tearful story retailed for the benefit of an tuncertain and timid old man, that only the, day before the train ran off the High Bridge. Hut let ns not forget how much this road suffered during the war, and that with return of real tranquility' and adequate means to the country, this "Ttld will le placed on -the same fooling with other "lilies, and kept in the order -Which it deserves At the Junction, we renew our -acquaintance with the. Richmond and Danville 11. which compares mnstfrlvorahly with the other.

Its convenient cam, arranged with high notions ol fcnmfort, its rapid and easy motion, and all the attentions which make agreeable travel, demand a passing com mendation. The tract ot country through which these lines pass is not very fertile or well cultivated the growing crops Beemed encouraging, and that was all. We reached the "hot bed of the rebellion" in lour or five hours after leaving Farmvillc Tbeupproach to the "doomed city" is beautiful. The expression of the "Richmond is beautifully situated on the North side of the James," does not begin lo describe tht extreme beauty of the site. I doubt not' that as many views of rich nut ral scenery anduyarled.

grouping, may lie obtained of Richmond on the James, aa of any city ot equal iliineusiijiis. The vistas opening from Hollywood, from fliini ble's Hill, from Chimboruzo Heights, an, I many other places, are very tine. Belly Isle, (well named,) Libby and Castle Thunder, with all the grim remembrances of war, the stilt standing sentiiiels ot the retreating army, in the bleak and blackened walls that mark thetourse of the fire, ith other drear mementoes of the hopes of the past all vanished, salute the inquiring eye in rapid succession. It was with sueh feelings that I approached the city, and, stopping "1ft the Depot, was in a fit frnme almost lo pen some elegiac verses or mournful threnody. But wo to sentiment.

The Interminable and abominable bleating and bawling, "Hexchange," "Ballard 'ouse," were enough almost to drive sense as well as sentiment away, and all thought of an immortalizing Eoem vanished into thin air I You will not' surprised, to learn that your correspondent lost, beside these- hopes of renown, an old and treasured gray tftawl. I had left the depot not more than a square beforethe loss beings discovered, I went back post-haste to search for the missing article, through tho cars and received only a few-smiles commuierating ratlier my ver-' dancy in looking lor 'the shawl, than the loss I had sustained. Farewell, thou relic of other days, farewell Richmond has rapidly recovered' from the disastrous conflagration as far as external appearance is concerned. Many very large and handsome edifices have the place of those far more unsightly which were burned and others still are in the course of erection. If, during the next two years, such rapid recuperation takes place the citv will have- lost every scar of the ercat agony.

I learned that business was rather dull for the season. We started early the next morning, in this direction. The Virginia Central Railroad has had the reputation of being the best road in the State, though I doubt not the roads since constructed may compare favorably with it. A gentleman who travelled with ut informed ns that, soon after its completion, he had written with comparative ease all the route from Richmond to Staun ton. Few road certainly evince such care and labor in it construction, and such comfort now.

The Countie nea'rest Ricfiiii'ondfcliave nothing of natural beauty to commend them. The lowlands are wide. Uninteresting, often marshy the, streams sluggish and muddy, while tticTngTierTanU seems to be uarren and sparsely settled. -Vet this wrrotecmtn try is hallowed by blood memorable for the great conflicts, mementoes of which are seen in tenantless chimneys, lines of fortification and military roads. Along some of these, streams, now clasaic, were some fine fields ot standing wheat, some al: iwadT cut and others ready for the reaper.

The yield promised to be abundant, judge, was all Harvested before tne recent runs. But speaking of itAmic, I never saw any before bardlv. There were seas and gulfs and oceans of it along the line of the road, especially as we approached Staunton. In Albemarle and Augusta the fields of standing wheat rem iu (led me of the splendid miles of grain in the lower Valley, before the passage of devastation over its fair border. Rve and oats likewise, but very little corn and tobacco, were cultivated.

Von remember, doubtless, the passage of the Bine Ridge, which this road makes. It is worth a trip to Staunton to see the mountains, even from the unsatisfactory position of a car. Hardly any scenery can surpass Rockflsh Gap, the toilsome. rugged aaccBLtoJhftJtnnBel, and the rapid, peaceful descenL tCL Waynesboro', know -not whether to reeard the mighty mountains as symbols of majesty and ttrengtb, of immensity, duration, or of solemn reposcV Certain it is, that th mind ia awed iu the -contemplation of these monument of a Maker's power. But I have notreachpd the "Hot" yet, in my letter, and have broken you down.

throughout the South to get full reglstra tion aud vote train the colored voters. The evidence Is plain, that almost every negro ia the South will register and vote. But this it tar from being the case with white. So far as Louisiana and Virginia have registered, the evidence I that not one white man. entitled to out of every three or five, arc registering.

They seem to have determined to give up the entire control of the Southern State to the negroes and the Yankee! and Southern Loy alista. Is that the determination of the white men in North Carolina I Are you willing that the colored people of this State, led by bad, vicious, white men, shall rule this State? If yoo neglect to register or vote, the colored rice" ihust and will "rule Noilh Carolina. The Congress ha deter mined that the negroes of the South, how. ever ignorant or debased, or nowever lncur-ferentthey may be, shall hays a full share In ruling the South and the whole country. Will yon, because you think that it I all wrong, cut yourself off from voting, to tpitt CuBgres I Our advieeUo every white man in North Carolina.who has determined not to avail himself of th right to vote by refusing to register, is to make hit calculation! to lie governed by the black race, We call upon intelligent gentlemen tbrouglwut the State to rally the White men of the State to register.

The blacks sxe fully aroused up they are being rallied and Utftured and taught, every day, to ter and vote. Will no one try to arouse the white men of the State Shall North Carolina be governed entirely by negroes and the white-faced enemies of our people! it the question, the real question, at issue. All calculations bated upon the supposition that Radical rule i of thort duration that the Conservatism i of the country will soon triumph, are unwise and dubious. The only ise course it to take things aa we find them, and endeavor to control them in Roister, we say. Let every white i I I tn a tor man to we DMIMS rauu and vote.

Our colored people will do it, almost to a man. No one ia disposed to dis aui aye or prevent thein. Special effort are making 'to force them all to registcrand to vote i men who are tho enemlce of the while. Let the white men, therefore, put mwlvetin a position, by registering, to ir ihtir fuU share in the- control of the t'ute government!.
