Governor RAMSEY, in justifying himself,
through the Press, Of the 10th instant, for
the appointment OF JOHN A. HADLEY as
Major Of the Third Regiment, pronounces
him "gentleman of intelligence, high
character; and civil ability" We have in
our possession toe first document peuned
by Major HADLEY after the receipt of bis
commission. 1t is addressed to his superior
in command, Lieut.. Col. SMITH, and is,

follows

Maj John A Hadly
We are glad to be able to present before
the public sample of what constitutes,
according to Governor RAMsEY's standard
"a gentleman of intelligence" and civil
ability" We are of the impression, that
if Major HADLEy's case shall ever be
brought before military commission. he
will be d" oblige to bee absent on important
business from the army, during the bal
ance of his natural life.
We shall preserve the original of the
document above printed. as a literary and
military curiosity, and as an evidence of
the " intelligence" and "civll ability" Of
Governor RAMsEY's pet military appointees

nations and humanity alike require, in this in.
stance, full and ample retaliation.

The undersigned has purchased the Pr

Binding establishment, with its good will
and subscription lists land, after to-day, will
assume the publication of the newspapers
issued therefrom.
In making this apncuncement, the UNDER
signed desires simply to state, that it shall
be his best endeavor to maintain for the
establishment the enviable reputation which
it has enjoyed during the past seven years,
in its mechanical and newspaper depart
ments. In the former, arrangements have
been made for an increase of materials and
facilities for doing work and in the latter,
able accessions will be made to the editori-
al corps.
As, in our country, it is almost impossi.
bic to divorce the newspaper from politics,
the new publisher deems it but just to state
that be is, and has been from the organiza.
tion of the party, Republican in political
belief and conduct. VI mele partlzan pol
itics, however, he feels that there will be
little need of present discussion-so com.
pletely are the attention and passions of the
people absorbed and enlisted in the conflict
now going forward between Government
and Anarchy, Loyalty and Rebellion.

paper will yield firm and vigorous sup
port to the National Administration and
support inspired by the most confident
reliance on the wisdom as well as patriot.

The dispatch elsewhere, furnishes the par.
ticulars of their seizure. The fact that they
were taken from British steamer seems
like applying England's poisoned chalice to
her own lips. England has always insist
ed on the right of searching the vessels of
all other nations, and of retaining from
them all British subjects found thereon.
This right, always denied by our Govern.
ment, has never been relinquished by Great
although, from motives of policy,
the exercise of it has been for some years
back abandoned. The archives of our
State Department are filled with the argu,
ments of her ablest diplomats in vindication
of her right of search, and we shall be
curious to see bow the British Government
will now treat this practical application of
it's favorite doctriBe.

Governor is obliged to bolster his bad
cause with shameless lies and 10 amous ca
lumnies. To sustain himself, he does not
scruple to blacken the reputation of patri-
otto citizen, who, yesterday, at the head Of
a body of patriots like himself, and at an
age which would excuse him from military
service, left his State and home, to vel
come, for his country's sake, certain danger
and probable death. We leave the public
to judge between the Executive calumni-
ator and the gallant soldier who is the SUBJ

After landing and taking possession of
the forts, Gen. Sherman issued proclama.
ton TO the people of South Carolina, saying:
In obedience to the orders of the President
| have landed ON your shores with a small
force of National troops. We come among
you without feeling any personal animosity
and with no desire to harm your citizens, de-
stroy property or interfere with any of your
lawful rights, or social or loyal Institutions,
beyond what causes herein alluded to may
render unavailable.
Gen. Sherman then reviews the action of
South Carolina in the present rebellion, and
implores the people to pause and reflect
upon the consequences of their acts, and
says:
We have come among you as loyal men,
fully impressed with our constitutional obliga.
tions to the citizens of your State. These OBJ.
legations shall be performed as far as in our
power. But be not deceived. The obligation
of suppressing armed combinations against the
constitutional authorities is paramount to all
others. If, in performance of this duty, minor
but important obligations should be neglected,
it must be attributed to the necessities of the
case, because rights depending on the laws of
the State must necessarily succumb to the
military exigencies created by insurr cotton
and rebellion.

MO guilt is intended. Many time would

stern requirements of the service. In other
cases, where there is an evident intention to
disobay, and when the penalty is a court

then would part with all my honors and

four men to Camp Lyon under guard. for Of

Another slept on his sentinel post, a crime

to the good conduct and character of the

the opportunity to winas many laurels as
fortune may assign to them.
The people have come to regard General
Scott almost as a member of the administra-
ton God forbid that any hand should pluck
single honor from the old mans brow
Providence always has its instruments ready
Ter great emergencies, else we should say
that Gen. Scott could not be spared There
is probably no one man in America for whom
so many prayers are put up every day as for
Gen. Scott. There Is no man in America SO
deeply yencrated as he With the burden
of sevcnty-fivc years upon. him. he, has. en-
tered into this war, and he seems as capable
Of managing c1mpai,, as ever He is
working upon gigantic scale, and seems
bent UPON making the campaign
the most brilliant and the most hu.
name of his life. Ifhc is permitted to live
through this war, and to witness the tri-
nmph of his efforts for the restoration of
peace and unity to his country, he will have
testimonials OF the love of nation such as
few mea are permitted to enjoy. He stands
today in the hearts of the American people
second only to George Washington God
spare him to US yet, these many years
We have called public attention TO these
men because, in the study of the events
which iostlc each other upon the stage OF
public action, we are aptto forget the power
that sits quietly behind tn, curtain anl ar
ranges all. We are apt to forget the bur
dons Of thes, men when we bec,n, iinpa-
tient for results. With our business sus-
pended, an nothing to do but to read the
newspapers, it is easy for us to fad fault
but it is neither consideratc nor generous
for us to do it. The daily progress has
seemed slow; but when we look back and
see what has already been accomplished, il
seems miraculously fast. And when the war
shall be passed by, we have no doubt that
we shall look back with wonder that such a
multiplicity of events and sue, an aggregate
of action could possibly have been crowded
into so short a space Of time. We are soon
to have the presi Tents programme. No
message except the inaugural by the same
hand, has ever been looked forward to with
more anxious curiosity than this Still we,
all know what it will be; and we believe
that men ofall parties stand ready to re.
ecive it as the message of their president,
and to sustain him in his determination to
carry through the war rcsistlessly, and re-
store the unity of the country Springfield
Republican.
