Like the king Of Dahomey, who has become
the tutelsE saint Of Northern fsnaticism, sscri-
fee was necessary to satisfy the cApricss Of the
reigning monarch Of Lincolndom. From the
number Of victims offered up on the 8elda Of
Virginia and Northern Georgia, it would appear
that LINCOLN made no bad selection Ia choosing
his satrspB for the work. GRANT aad SHER-
Man, having offered up the sacrifices and deIud-

the gain Of territory, without other results, must
flank or lie dormant, until the nomination is se-

and BUTLER Of successes IS false as they are

Garibaldi in ENGLAND.

One OF the marked events Of the day is
the appearance of the great leader Of Euro
pean Democracy in England. The ovation
rendered him by the authorities and citizens
OF SOuthdmtOn exceeded III enthusiasm and
profound agitation anything that has been
witnessed In Europe for many years. He
arrived in the Ripon on Sunday morning,
and, Notwithstanding the sacredness Of the
day, multitudes focked to the dock to wei
come him. All classes of society We'd with
each other to do honor to the eminent rep
resentatiYe Of Italian Democracy. The bells
of the churches were ringing; flags were
flying from every window, and the popular
heart was stirred TO its lowest depth Even
those papers which have heretofore eagerly
embraced every opportunity to malign and
abuse him, now call him the foremost of
all the idols of the popular heart The
reception everywhere accorded TO the ltal-
ian patriot was most hearty and thoroughly
earnest. Addresses by the Mayor of South
anton were made to Gen Garibaldi in the
most cordial and fattering terms He as
sured him that his name was a household
word in Great Britain Everywhere the
people had heard OF his patriotic deeds and
the noble efforts he had made to achieve the
independence of his country. The General
was deeply affected by the address as well as
the tumultuous greeting or the people. In
reply he said that it was not the first time
that he had received proof of the sympathy
of the English nation Had it not been for
their help in 1860 it would have been i'm
poss bic to have accomplished what had been
done in Southern Italy. The English peo-
pie had provided him with arms, men and
money, and what they did was worthy of
the eternal gratitude of the Italian people.
w hat his DlguS ara IN E'uplanG ar thi- ,,.;-
ticular juncture has not been announced.
But wherever and whenever he speaks, it is
in the interest of universal liberty
1t Is intimated that the illustrous patriot
contempates visit TO the United States.
His reception here will be as hearty and
genuine as in England, for the fires of liber-
ty burn brightly in the hearts of our people,
and they cannot fail to feel and express ad
miration for one whose life has been given
to the defense and dissemination of liberal
views and human freedom

selves. When they have done so they viii prob
ably think, with US, that the conduct of the Com
missoners in this matter is entirely witho jus
tifcation or excuse. Had they been as prompt to
offer the bounty as they have been in haste to lay
the tax, they would have saved the people fully
one-half of the amount they called up
on to pay, while they would have rendered tha
certain which is now exceedingly uncertain, viz
the exemption OF the county from the draft.
Having by their neglect incurred such an enor-
nous debt they ought, at least, to have provided
for its payment in the way that could be most
easily borne by the people There are someother
things pertaining to this subject 30 which we may
allude hereafter. If we are mistaken in the data
upon which we have based these remarks, the
Commissioners shall have the full benefit of the
explanation
