RAIIFICATIoN.-It seems lha. the
Lane men of Leayenworlh .were mol
satisfied with the ratification meeting
got up some time ago under their own
auspicies, and are going 10 try their
hand again tonight. What's in the
wind ? Was your former ratification a
failure, and this movement a confes.
sion of the fac. ? or, are Lincoln and
Johnson so hard up for supporters. you
have to get up another affair ? or. does
the nomination Of those worthy gentle.
man need ratification at this late day?
1t strikes US as being either very
stupid move. or mere trick Of dema-
gogues TO get the people together for
some sinister or selfish purpose. Ger
tahly it is the height of siIliuess to get
up meetings to ra,ify :hs nominations
made in June. Better be making votes
for the nominees.

point of talent hardly equal to Blair.

lcan. but Of late years has become
more radical. There are many abIer
men in the nation, bu, We believe he
will make good officer: and his hold
ing place in the Cabinet will give
more general satisfaction to the grea,
body of loyal men than that Of his pre-
decessor. He is sound and true, and
has no blemish upon his reputation or
record.

6ght was brilliant bu, short, lasting less
than two hours. Sheridan has now
over 5000 prisoners and 81 guns. and
at latest accounts was still chasing the

There is report that Mobile sur-

hope it is SO.
Nothing new from Grant or Sherman.
The rebels are in the rear Of the latter,
raiding and endeavoring TO destroy his

victories Of our arms will bring the

Of affairs will be the result.
