GENERAL THOMAS.

1t will be seen, by the list of appointments which
publish to-day, that this gentleman has resigned the
Office of Assistant Secretary Of State, which he has
held for the last eighteen months, aud whose duties
he has discharged with intelligence industry and 6dsl-
ity. This testimony is fairly due to him the
of public duty, but the inclined to rem
der il because personal and friendly relations with
him have enabled to appreciate as they deserve his
many estimable qualities 1t is unnecessary to odd that
his withdrawal has not been induced by amy want of In
teres bis part for the success of the administrator
want OF confidence by the Executive in his ability
efficiency which qualities he has shown heretofore in
rous positions in the public service and will continue
manifest, we doubt mo-, in any sphere which he msy

Having accepted the appointment of Assistant Secretary
OF State practical connsron with the Union will
from this day. II has been neither long intimate for
at the very time Of announcing it, found ourself obliged
by sickness to relinquish oil editorial duties and apply
ourse exclusively to tie recovery of health In this pur-
suit we far successful that have recently been
able to assist in the Of the paper, although
quite sensbs that have not done adequate justice
either that may be pardoned perhaps for addn)
to ourself For the kindness which, under such crcum
stsnce have received from brethren of the press
we owe them cordial thanks and in now with
our best wishes for their health snd prosperity. How
necessary the former is in encounter with the
duous duties of newspaper life, have had ample
reason to understand, and how well the faithful dis
charge of suoh duties deserves be crowned with
porous success acquainted with them doubt.
The physical which first induced idea of with
drawa' led naturally to arrangements which have out
lived 1--WE glad TO say their original cause but
the less gratfsd with change which gives bet
prospect OF confirmed recovery to health than
could have expected to enjoy amidst the peculiar auxiees
and abo-s Of daily newspaper We had intended to in
crease somewhat the size of the Union to cohe il in
dress and 10 enlarge the sphere of its correspondence and
s contributions. The idea however which have seen
mentioned OF making it compete with the double sheets Of
the London Times occurred There place
England where the Times could sustain itself except
London and there is place in America where similar
journal could possibly succeed except New York. But in
Washington there ought to be- thought political
journal of The first class which, by the ability of its
tcles its general ard early political news, we'll its
foreign and local letters might make itself useful
panon TO every citizen who participated in public
affairs and thus might be of important service to the
Administrations and to the principles and policy which
it represents. Such journal hope the Union may be-
under the auspices Of successor whose views
this subject concur believe with ours and who has all
the necessary qualities to put them in practice He will
make bis announcement, however to the readers OF
the Uno in few days and except therefore, to add that
he is democrat of proved consancy to his principles and
will become it's sole and exclusive proprietor need

THE NEW ORLEANS DELTA AND COL DAVIS.
We give below article from the Sentinel published
near the residence Of Senator Davs of Mississippi.
The article bears evidence Of having been carefully pre-
pared with due authority and must therefore silence those
who assuming that the Delta spoke for Colonel Davis
seeking to place him in a false position
since the New Orleans Delta turned its batteries
against the democracy and engaged in the Quixoc
prise Of building up what II is pleased to call great
southern party it has labored assduoasy to create the
impression that Col Davis sympahi1ed with it in its plans
aud purposes While its denunciatons have been poured
out without stint upon all other prominent democrats it
have sought eagerly for opportunities euogize
Col Davs and TO hold him up rs the man TO whom the
South must look its only safe leader in vudicatng and
maintaining its constitutional rghts The object of that
erratic paper in adopting and pursuing this policy is
parent enough BY creating false impression the pub
lie mind TO The political sefu, OF distinguished
sor it aims 10 give force and efficiency to its ,u upon
the democratic party The co;ere disappointed polit
clans who control the Delta well aware that by hold
ing ii out the organ Of Colonel DAVIES sentiments,
consideration and weight would be gained for it which IL
cond not hope to acquire by simple advocacy of its Inn
practicable doctrines.
taking It for granted that injury could be done

the Delta have not heretofore felt called upon give
the matter importance by noticing IL ia columns. Al

estimated its influence for evil and therefore deem
