The thought which caused me to write that portion of my letter quoted by you, and wliich is e till my opjmon, s, that in the condition of things afpresent exist- ing, the result of war, and not of the free action of the DeoDle. the action of the civil courts and gracd juries, however honest, would not prevent the recurrence of frequent acts of violence, par ticularly towards Freedmen, during the time in tervening between the complete restoration of civil law. Military law is, I thick, a necessity in tho transition state in which the States lately I hostile to the Government now arc.

Such action by the officers of the Freedmen's bureau would be in violation of their instruc tions. I have myself cautioned the Assistant Commissioners of the necessity of getting at the truth in all cases. There has been no complaint made of the action of the officers of that Depart ment, and I think that their conduct has been j discreet. I'ermit me, in conclusion, to say, I think there j can Le no real conflict between the civil and mili-: tary authorities in the State. This question of j difference between us, has come up whilst I have i been temporarily in command of the Department, : and my action iit the matter is founded on what i conceive to be the rights of the case.

In commercial circles yesterday everything was unsettled by the exciting news in Wall street. The reports of bank robberies, forgeries, failures, if., followed each other in quick succession, and each evinced great excitement, which seemed to prow more and more intense as the extent ot the disasters became more generally known, business was nearly up?cf, everybody beinq; on the lookout for a gold panic and large fluctuations in prices of l;M and merchandise. Prices of nearly every kind of merchandise foreign and domestic were nearly nominal. jVcw YorJc Herald of the IGth. Elaine Democratic Convention The Presi dent and State Sovereignty.

The latter expres sion was received with great applause. The resolutions adopted were in consonance with the spirit of these remarks. Mr. Jefferson vpton Tories. A strong argu ment in President Johnson's favor may bo drawn from Mr. Jefferson's reply to a lady who appealed to him in behalf of her son, who was a Virginia Tory during the Revolution. lie wrote to her as follows : "I suppose him to have taken sides with the Uritish before our declaration of independence; and if this was the case, I respoct the candor of j the measure, though 1 do not bis wisdom.
