Change of I<wt Maatcra.
Thomas A. Miller Esq. Tost Master at
this place for several years past, has oeen
nmoved, ami William Burgess, the nigger
equality Editor here appointed in his place.
This change was made at the instance of a
few political adherents ot this "Loyal
draft-sneak." and without consulting the
wishes or feelings of the public. Mr. Mil
ler is an old and highly respected citizen
of our county, against whose integrity,
qualifications and fitness for the place not
a word can be said. His only fault being
the gH.n'ting oftoo many civilities and priv
ileges about his office to a set of sneaks
and ptvs who, finding their inquisitive
nnupincss was not longer encouraged by
Mr. Miller, nor the public, secretly and
with characteristic meanness contrived to
have him removed.
The public had in Mr. Miller a man in
whom they, without dstinctiou of party,
felt the utmost confidence. He had per
formed the duties oft his office, —and others
to which he had years before, been called,
by the suffrages of tlu- people, —with strict
integrity and so far as we know, with im
partiality. Of this man llilly Burgess but
is little known here. Having been bad
lv beaten as a candidate for the County
School Superintendent of his County
one l>r. John, his political God-father, con
cluded to send liim up into this benighted
region as a sort of missionary. Alter he
had arranged to tome, the Draft struck
him. In violation of the law, he was all
owed to sneak out,under the paltry and false
pretext that "the cause of education might
otherwise suffer !" His boastful annouuee
ment to u- heathens that he "could write,"
his bogus enrollment lists, are apart of the
history of the County. Having been al*
lowed to go thus far, through the corrup
tion and connivance of partisan office hol
ders, we fear he will not forget their teach
ings and example; and that, as he is now,
"Drest in a little brief authority," he
w ill show himself an apt pupil in the mat
ter of prostituting official position to the
basest and vilest of partisan purposes. The
sneaking planner in which he wormed
himself into the position, with the fact that
three fourths, if not seven eights of those
having business with the office prefer Mr,
Miller to him, is enough to satisfy us that
in thase matters Billy and his clique have
but little regard for the feelings or interests
of the public. But then it is said that this
long-haired apostle of Dr. John"can write."
Wonderful man ! Let all the people how
down in adoration and biing forth their
offerings. Make straight the paths of this
man "preaching in the wilderness." Final-
Jy, like other priest-ii Idea societies, lets
take the matter philosophically ; and now
that we cannot help doing so ; let's try
kirn.
fW Gov. Ftr e - °f Jamaica, in his re
port af the late insurrection in that island,
MTS that the design of the negroes was a
general revolt and massacre of the whites,
and that nothing but the premntureness of
tha outbreak and the promptness with
which it ■vas met by officials prevented its
full consumption. He charges Dr. I nd-r
--bill, a Baptist missionary, who visited the
island two vcars ago, with having kindled
the seditious spirit and other missionaries
and a portion of the press with having fos
tered it. Among the atrocities perpetrated
by the blacks at Mutant Bay, he mentions
that Rev. Mr. Ilerschel's tongue was cut
out while he was still alive; Mr. Charles
I'rice was tipped open and his bowvlstorn
out; Lieut. Hall wars roasted a!ive; Bar
on Von Kettlhoidt's fingers were cut off
for trophies; and the eyes of a number of
others were scooped from_iheir sockets.
Why.is it, with these facts before the
world, that the so-called Republican party
•f the dis United States (accorrding tc the
radical view) do not put J-A-M-A-I C-A as
the base course of their political victories
•s more than we can comprehend, unless
it i§ because the insurrection wa put down.
But, rtfjf have done- the next best thing —
tbey have justified the negro fiends and
ooaderaned the officers of justice who me
ted oat to them condign punishment.

Secretary MeCulloch.a Report,
The Secretary of the Treasury begins
hi* report by exhibiting the evila which we
are suffering, and the othsr evils with ;
which we are threatened, by the inflation
of our currency, lie remarks that "the
plethora of paper money is not only un
dermining the morals of our people by en
couraging waste and extravagance, but it is
striking at the root of our material pros
perity by diminishing labor." The paper j
circulation,on the 31st of October, was
over seven hundred and thirty-tour mil
lions of dollars ; and it has daily increased,
since then, by the reason ot the further is-,
sue of national bank notes. 'lf disaster;
followed the expansion, unless speedily !
checked and reduced ?" asks the Secre- J
tary.
He strongly advocates contraction, does
not believe that any measure which can he
passed bv Congress can cause embarrass— >
ment, either to the government or people I
or a crisis worse than is inevitable if we
continue as we are. The Secretary reconi- j
menus, therefore : First, that Congress de- j
clare the compound interest notes no long
era l.gal tender, after their maturity
Second, that the Secretary be authorized to
sell six per cent, bonds to redeem compound ,
interest and United States notes. He does j
not think contraction by these means will!
be injuriously rapid, but holds that it will i
not be necessary to retire more than one,or j
at most two hundred millions to reach the j
desired result.
The national debt will reach three thous- j
and millions on July 1, 18GC. "Nothing '
but revenue, 1 ' says the Secretary, *'will sua- j
tai'i the national credit, and nothing less
than a fixed policy for the reduction of the
public debt, will be lik -ly to prevent its in
crease." He proposes an act of Congress
that, beginning with the next fiscal year
two hundred millions per annum shall be j
applied to the paynffent of the principal and j
interest of the public debt. He suggests
also that Congress shall declare the priuci- j
pal as well as the interest of the five-twen- !
ty bonds payable in coin. I'e opposes the
taxation of government l>onds by states, j
As to internal revenue laws, he with
holds recommendations until the Commis
sion reports.
REFRLSUINOLT COOL. —The Cameron
Telegraph organ is showing how strong
the South was in men and resources, and
how weak the North was, and consequent
ly what a hard time "our loyal party" had
in putting down the rebellion, It says :
"The n-bel population of the South was
6,500,000, and they controlled the lnb-r of
3,000,000 of slaves giving them 9.500,000
of population, from which to draw tln-ir
resources of men. The copperheads of the
North represented a population of 7,000,-
000 out of 21.000.000, thus leaving but 14,
000,000 to afford the loyal resources of
men."
The "loyal" organ don't pot it strong
enough. In 1864, when the 4 loyal 1 party
was at its strongest, the 23 loyal states g ve
Lincoln a little over 300,000 in majorities
—New England alone aggregating 101,-
000. These majorities represented a popu
lation of about 1,500,000, so that the "loy
al' men, women and children only out
numbered the "copperheads" to that ex
tent —no more. This would make the
number of "copperheads" in the North 9,-
000,000 and the "loyalists" otdy 12,000,-
000, Thus there were nine million "cct|>per
heads" united to six and a half million
"rebels," and three million negroes, mak
ing eighteen and a half million pepl',(18,-
500,000,) who were pitted against tlie
twelve million (12,000,000) "loyal" fel
lows !
What a hard time of it the "loyal" fel
lows must have had —especially those who
fought with contraband and jailbird prox
ies ! How brave they must have been !
Just think of it—the "loyal" fell short of
the numler of "disloyal" by six and a half
milliou, and it will never be definitely
known perhaps, how many of that small
band of the elect were required to take
care of "the necessities of the Government."
But, worse ever than this. In 1863-2-1
the "copperheads" were vastly more strong
than in 1864, so that then the "loyal" pa
triots were but a mere handful. No won
der, that that band of braves was forced,
by drafting, to drive the "copperheads" in
to the array "like bullocks to the slaughter
pens;" no wonder ttjpy were forced to ra
tion, clothe and arm two hundred thousand
Southern slaves as a sham ; and no wonder
that so many "loyal" fellows felt it a duty
to get themselves substitutes from among
the criminals and lunatics in our jails.—
Even supposing there were 14,000,000
"loyal" people ; that would be only 7,000,-
003 males, of all aires ; and as there • ere
at least 2,000,000 men in the Federal ar
mies, it must have taken 1 out of every 3|
of the "loyal" males, from "muling and
puking" infancy to the "shrunken shanks"
of seconJ childhood. What a terrible time
therefore, our "loyal" brethren—especially
of the press —must have had in putting
down the rebellion ! Literally "the cradle
and the grave" must have been robbed (as
well as the Government) "to affbred the
loyal resources of men."— Patriot & Un~

President Johnson and Mr, Suttnar. |
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Herull report* as follows :
A Rich interview took place between the
President and Senator Snrancron the eve
ning after the Message was read in Con
gress. It lasted for several hours. There
were tluee or foui persons present. Sum
ner is represented as having been very ner
vous Soine of those present thought he
would go into a fit at two or three different
periods of the consolation .At any rate his ac
tions justified the application of the term
of being amonomaniae in regard to the ne
gro. Finding himself unable to move the
President, l.e finally broke out as follows :
"Mr President, 1 notice that the white
rebels down in Alabama and other localities
in the South are talking very strong a
ga>nst the Union, and denouncing it in
strong terms ;car. you not do something to
put a stop to it ?"
The President cooly replied : "I see, Mr.
Sumner, that the white rebels in Boston
are talking against the Union. Can't you
put a stop to it tliere ? "
This confused the Senator for a short
time, but after twisting in his seat for a
short time he again btokc out as follows :
"Mr. Johnson, the reports from the South
show that the white rebels in almost every
section are insulting the freedmen. Don't
you think that Congress ought to do some
thing to coirect this evil ?"
The President, with a significant wink
to the other gentlemen present, replied;
"Mr. Sumner, I notice by the papers that
the white rebels in Cincinati have be en re
cenilv insulting white people there and
knocking down one or two. Can t t Con
gress do something to crrct that evil ?"
It is need less to add that the stay of the
Massachusetts negr monomaniac at the
White House was of short duration after
that thrust.

short time ago, paity of proprietors
of landes on the James Island, South Car
olina, started from Charleston in a boat for
the ida'id, accompanied by two officer of
of Gen. Sickles' stuff, but were unable to
effect a landing— some, sixty uegroes
having appeared on the shore and theratend
to fire on the first man who should attempt
to laud. The negroes refused to listen to
the officers, and threatened to kill the negro
oarsman if the boat should not iiumediatly
leave. The boat was followed for two
tniles along the shore. Two companies of
the 6th Rc.'iilars have been ordered ovei
to arrest all who offer resistance. These
are some of the results of Gen* Saxton s in
cendiary teachings To those.and others
of the same kind of lawless blacks, Senator
Sumner proposes to donate all the coast is
lands and the. fetile lands along the rivers
for thirty miles inland. A pretty paradise
they would make.
