The traveler who wanders to the seques-

his legal functions will hardly fail to encoun-

when the weather is fine he may often be
seen trundllng his wheelbmow to and item
the little field to the cultivation of which as
well as to his legal services, he looks'for sup-
port. The Squire, indeed, finds little employ-
ment in his chosen calling. Thp tide of im-
migration which brings with it the crimes
and vices of foreign countries rollsup the
well-worn channels of travel leaving here
, and there many a'favored nook unaffected
and uncontaminated.
In such planet there is usually a limited
amountlcf crime to be detected and punished
and of wealth to foster litigation and conse-
quently little employment for. the oficers of
the law. Though making the most 'of that
little our hero has been forced to resort to
various strategems—to tho birch in winter
and the spade in summer to gain a livelihood.

“Fernandina is situated on Amelia Island,
and is naturally one of the most charming
man of letters than agriculture. Soon, how-
ever, from their constantrepetition his inter-
est in the few primary studies of the schools
began to flag. The daily tasks failed to im-
part a sufilcient impulse to the ' ponderous
mechanism of his brain and now and then he
places upon the Southern Atlantic coast.”
So says Mr. R. C. Truman, “Our Own
Correspondent," of the N. Y. Tlmea'in a let
ter to that paper published in its issue of the
39“" ~11thlnst, and I think no one will contradict
the most to blame I shall not pretend to
give you a detailed sketch of the state of so-
ciety in :thia letter for fear of making errors.
Sufice it to ,saythat there is a line drawn,
and you must be clear on one side or the oth-
s'ent cuthere to buy property ‘at the direct
tax sales (which, by the way, are the most
shocking medley of fraud and rascality ever
pract‘ced upon our Government) have got
and threatened to resist the law, as, doc.”
"Ofccurse the entire portion of the Southern
people—good bad and indiflerent, loyal and
disloyal—aro denounced by these valerons
sailor’s clerks as traitors par excellence. , It
is no uncommon thing for ladies to be insult-
ed by some ofthisgaug, who are not associ-
ated with hardly at allby the few Federal
d ex-Federal officers who are stationed or
ho are residing here. On the other hand,
with but few exceptions, the Southern peo-
ple are doing very well, and, as far asIcould
perceive, arestrictly ‘lo ‘ .”
It must be that Mr. Truman, while pen-
ning the above, derived inspiration from his
favorite beverage, which i’m’t soda-water, for
I am sure that in his sober momenta—if he
has any,—lle would not care to append his
name to anything so palpably false.
Although, as‘many of your readers are
aware, I was not a “sutler’s clerk” during
the war. I am a member of the “secret soci:
ety” to which Mr. Truman refers end proba-
bly know as much or more about its oblects
and proceedings than-he does. The ‘fUnicn
Clu ” was organized,asits Constitution says
for the purpose of “making known to North-'
ern capitalists the great business advantages
of this place, to enccursge emigration here,
and-to endeavor topromote a healthy Union
sentiment in our midst.” The members of
the organization also agreed to “mutually pro-
tect their persons and property against the
attacks of lawless men.” Is there anything
particularly awful about that 7 Had we not
a perfect right to organize such a society i
That it is a necessary organization no one
can doubt who daily hears Mr. Truman’s
“strictly loyal” people, threatening to “make
Fernandina too bet to hold the d—d yanks."
and making their boasts that they “can get
any favor at Washington that they choose to
ask.”
Were it not for Mr. Trumaan responsible
position as “Cerrespondent of the Times” and
private Secretary of President Johnson his
absurd statementtli'at we have .“ armed the
negrces and threatened ti resist the law”
would nctbe worthy of notice, but, as such
an assertion from him, may be believed by
many who do not know the man, I brand his
stiltemeat as a deliberate falsehood, and can,
if necessary. substantiate myself by the ad!-
davits of fifty respectable, responsible men.
Wiler. Truman please inform the public
from whom he obtained hisinform'ation con-
cerning affairs down here ? Did he consult
one man whose record of loyalty has always
been clear and ’unqueationed 1’ After inqui-
ry I have yet to learn that he did so.
Mr. Truman in his letter talks fluently
aboutths colored schools here and says that
he accepted a klndinvitaticn from Mr. Kin-
ue, Superlntandent of the schools, to visit
one of them, Mr. Klnne says that Mr. Tru.
man did not accept his invitation to visit the
schools although it was repeatedly extended
to him. He made several appointments to do
so, but in every case “failed to connect.”
In answer to Mr. Truman’s statement that
Federal and ex-Fedcrsl officers here do not
associate with the “sutler's clerks" compos-
ing the “ ucret society,”I will only say that
a “mean.
not the members of our Clan—wet forty hi
would fall asleep in his chair'in the midst of
arecltaticn, to the great diversion of his mis-
chievous scholars.
As an agriculturist he cannot be called suc-
cessful , His method of husbandry is pecul-
iar. That the last frosts of Spring may not
blight his crops he prudently delays planting
untill mid-summer. The frosts of Autumn
reap the half ri pened harvest and our hero
gathers what they have spared. Though
thus compelled to find his chief employment
without his chosen profession yet, wherever
he goes, and whatever he does, the legal idea
is prominent in the thoughts, the legal way
in the manner of the Country Squire. He
was legally born, no doubt, and, we trust,
will be legally buried. ' -
As you pass, he gravely setsdown his
wheelbarrow which he seemed fated to be
forever trundling and eyes you with a care-
flil ainq'uisitive stare, as if he thought you a
fugitive from justice and was marking your
person for description. His curiosity is un-
bounded. He . may often be seen loitering
about the village post ofilce,eagorly catching
up stray bits of information which the coun-
try folks as they come and go drop in their
conversaticn with the post master ‘and each
other and listening with equal avidity to a
' tale of village scandal and the latest news
from Washington, or, he becomes one of a
knot of busy talkers discussing with great
profundity questions of local and national
politics developing astonishing plans for the
next campaign, or fighting over the battles
of the past. . '
In spite of his patched every-day dress the
Country SqUire is easily distinguished from
his compeere by the barbarous Latin phra-
ses with which he dexterously sprinkles
his discourse and by the cross questioning
way in which he dissects his interrogatories
He is always on the slit to discover the
faults and foibles of his neighbors and enters
with enthusiasm into their petty quarrels.
He is ever ready to new the secede of strife
and to foster their growth that he may reap
from them an abundant harvest.
“Foenum habet in cornu ; Longs fuge :"
He keeps a vigilant eye upon his brother
justices and their errors do not escape him.
Especially does he delight in detecting their
mistakes in the application or interpretation
of the Latin expressions of so frequent occur-
rences. -
It is a fortunate day in the life of our hero
when a suit is brought before him for trial.
08 such occasions he arrays himself in his
Sunday clothes ‘and brings forth from its
lon retirement his gold headed cane-— the
ving} of justice. Thus attired and followed
by a troop cf admiring urchins he enters the
hall of justice" and the court site. 'The Squire
presides with all the dignity due to his high
once, at 'ltiines', however, relaxing his stern
features to make afacetlous remark which is
received with great applause especially by
the parties interested. He is exceedingly
jealous], Of. his authority in court. Every
- slight. disturbance he looks upon as an act of
contempt and with an air of offended majes-
ty he warns its luckier. author of the penalty
of disrespect. '
Thus have we glanced at a few features of
an old acquaintance. Old age brings to him
but little honor. The craft and littleness of
his occupation have led their indelible im-
press upon his character, affording us ligtle
to imitate, much to shun. S.

'i‘nn OCEAN Tarr'orm Mamrouonon;
AThe successful trlp'of the monitor Minn-
tonomoh across the Atlantic is desewedly
attracting much attention as a great naval
triumph. she being the first vessel of the kind
that has ever crossed the ocean, although
the Monadnock has made an equally peri-
lous and much longer voyage around Cape
Horn to San Francisco. Being the first
monitor to visit European waters, she will
ofcourse attract great attention wherever
she goes. A correspondent of the Provi-
deuce Journal, who was with the fleet ac
companied her, furnishes some interesting
particulars respecting the Miantonomoh and,
her performances. Her appearance at St.
Johns, N. F., created great excitement, and
the signal than, dumb with amazement, left
his station on the hill, and reported “a sink-
ing steamer coming in.” No atom was en-
countered on the passge to Queenstown, but
high seas prevailed at times. The Miantc-
nomoh, steaming sixto seven and a half
knots—her maximum speed is much greater.
than this-with a moderate consumption of
cal, seemed to be not a whit behind other
sea-going vessels. Upon the great waves:
which now and then almost hid» the iron
clad, she would rise gracefully and .bouy-:
antly, and then fall away with the receding,
swell_sensitive as a yatch, just hardly rolling
from side to side, while the waters, which it
seemed at times most engulfher, were hardly
able to skim across her deck. Of her
arrival at Queenstown the writer says, under
date of the 16th:
“As we maths bluff head of Kinsele,‘
thell htk di pod the British ensign
whiclIheh hoisgd on the flag staff neat:
by—the first flag in Europe that saluted an
American monitor iron clad. We steamed
handsomely in line into the harbor, between
the two great headlanda, crowned with
En lish fortifications, from which we were
a n saluted by the English flag. 0
' tonomoh steamed in rapidly and so
finely that it was no wonder the people were
astonished and pleased to see her move-
ments. ' ' .
We passed close under the bow of the
English iron clad frigate Achilles, whose
officers looked down upon the strange iron
vessel unabl evidently, to comprehend her
character. We steamed up abreast of the
city and. came to an anchor. The British
fi was hoisted at the “fore” of the Augusta
an received the national salute. The Amer-
ican consular salute was then fired. The
national salute was returned » from lilo
Black Prince, a six thousand ton English
iron clad frigate condemned, and now .serv-
in as a guard ship here.
he town stands upon the side of elevated
land, and we could see the people «in the
streets and houses lookin down upon the
new comers evidently de ighted. And so
the p c has been made, and our Ameri-
can ‘monltor’ iron clad, with much credit to
herself for the excellence of the performance
now lays quiet at anchor in a British hare
bor." .
The London - Times Compli-
ments our Government.
The. London Times speaks of the conduct
of Our government in the Fenian basincss as
folloWs: .
Before congratulating ourselves and the
Canadians on this satisfactory result, we has-
ten to express our sense ofthead mirable spirit
displayed in these transactions by the govern-
ment of the United States. It would be im-
possible to exaggerate the good faith, the
friendliness, the sincerity, and the regard for
these energetic and decisive measures. If we
have sometimes thought that the American
government were tardy in discerning sum-
cient grounds for their interference, we must
now acknowledge that when the occasion
occurred they have acted in a manner which
even exceeds anything that could reasonably
have been expected from the most friendly
nation. The people will not fail to see the
most conspicuous evidence of this dispodtion
in the persons to whom they have intrusted
the duty of suppressingthis ignoble raid A
band of Police might have seemed the more
appropriate agents for capturing a more band
of robbers and murderers, and, at the utmost,
a subordinate military officer might have been
thought amply sufficient to deal with so tri-
vial a disturbance. But instead of this, the
Federal Government have employed the
most distinguished ofilcer in their service,
together with his most trusted lieutenant.
General Grant, in America, holds something
of the position which .the Duke of Welling-
ton held among ourselves, and Gen. Meade
was only subordinate to him throughout the
final operations of the war. To employ these
two officers is not only to insure that the re-
nian attempt shall be most efi'octualiy sup-
pressed, but to give the most conspicuous
evidence of thedetermination of the Govern-
ment to oppose, and if necessary to suppress,
the Fenian Society. In point of moralforce,
President J ohnson’s' proclamation itself could
hardlybe more effectual; This document,
however, and the arrests by which it has
been accompanied, are the most complete
blowiwhich could have been struck» at the
movement, and will do for us everything we
could have wished to do for ourselves.
These energetic acts of genuine friendship
on the part of the United . States Govern-
ment will be long and cordially remembered ;
and we are almost disposed to thank theFe-
nians for having given the Americans an oc-
casion for displaying so conspicuously their
friendliness and good feeling.
W
Tan Moran’s ArrnAL—In the Knicker-
bocker for January, we find the following
touching bit of human nature: -
In a metropolitan criminal court, eight
years ago, a poor Woman, whose boy had
been sentenced to a long term at the peni-
, tentiary, for some not well proved offence,
said :—“Won’t your honor give-him a short-
er term? He is a good boy to me, your hon-
or—he always was. I've just made- him
some nice clothes, your honor, which fit him
beautiful,” (and she looked, as she said, this,
as only a mother can look at her boy:) “and
if you give him a long time to stay in prison:
the clothes wont fit him when he comes out
—for he is a-growing boy.” Poor mother!
she had saved much (for her) from her scant
earnings, to clothe her boy “like the neigh—
bors children." This was too much for the
Judge of her son. He melted. The boy wept
-repented—-' was forgiven—and he is now
one of the most promising, enterprising and
honorable young merchants in our city.
Every word of this is true, and known to be
so to very many persons
