PHIL SHERIDAN.

Grant seems to have that Same un.
erring instinct in the selection of men
which characterized Napoleon. He
picked Sherman to command tho great
Army of the West, and 10 "ATLANTA
IS OURS AND FAIRLY woNl" When
Early and Breckenridge came down
like q wolf on the fold" to invade
Maryland and threaten Washington
he chose PHIL SHERIDAN to command
the Middle Department, and 10!

And the Army is broke In the Shenandoah vNlo,
And the might Of the Rebels, with cannon ant
sword,
Hath melted like snow In the glance Of the Lord"
Sheridan is from the neighborine
county of Perry, The 18th District
has the honor of giving to the country
Sherman and Sheridan, and Ohio sends
the distinguished three headed by
Grant. When President Lincoln needs
men, he will please call on the Buck
eye State.

SllerIdan,s Victory.

No official dispatches have been re-
ceivod from Sheridan for several days,
but those published show that his vic
tory over Early is complete. The re-
bel army in the Shenandoah Valley is
routed, demoralized, and fleeing
through tho mountains. Sheridan ia
after them, far up the valley. We
should not be much surprised if Mon

guns should yet become true. Good

BISHOP SIMPSONS ADDRESS.

Bishop Simpsons Address upon the
"State Of tho Country" is spoken of by
all who attended the late meeting Of
the Ohio Conference, at Chillicothe, as
the most original and eloquent Grafton
which the times have produced.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial, who was present, writes
as follows concerning the effect Of the
address: ......
at has been our privilege to hear
most of the great speakers of the age,
East and West, but to Bishop SIMPSON
we give the palm. During the whole
tine of his lecture every hearer was
held in silent attention, unless, by some
sentence of beauty, some sentiment Of
patriotism, or some flight of eloqucnce
he would evoke applause. His pero'
ration was sublime above description
Laying his hand on the torn and ball
riddled colors of tho 73rd Ohio, he
spoke of the fields where they had
been baptised in blood, and described
their beauty as some small patch o.
azure, filled with stars, that an ange
had snatched from the heavenly cano'
py, to set in stripes Of blood. With
his towering flight began scone tina
Demosthenes wo'd have been proud of
All over tho vast crowd handkerchief
and hats were waved, and before thu
speaker sat down tho whole throns
arose, asby magic charm, and scream
ed and clapped, and stamped, and sa
luted, and shouted, and wept, anC
laughed, in wild excitement. Colone
Moody sprang to the top of a bencl
and called for tho "Star Spangled Ban
ner," which wasSung, or rather shout
ed, until tho audience dispersed"

Two OF FlnOl,. Constituents.

Among the constituents of Mr.. Finck
are Sherman and Sheridan. While
they have been achieving immortal
honor defending the Government
against its foes, the man who mis-rep-
resents them in Congress has been vo-
ting side by side with those foes. Mr..
Finck is pledged to say by his voice
and votes that they are prosecuting an
unjust and unholy war, and he would
write over their graves "In memory Of
those who fell in a useless war" Will
the district which gives to the country
two ofits most gallant and distinguish
ed defenders, allow itself to be repre-
sented in Congress by the man who is
in favor Of base submission to the
insolent rebels against whom Sherman
and Sheridan are defending the ma

ECESaION.

Dispatches from below state that
negotiations Of some kind are going on
between Gen. Sherman and Governor
Brown, of Georgia, looking to the Sc
cesson of that State from the Confed-
eracy. The doctrine for which the
rebels are fighting is turning upon
them to rend them. They have been

tion has overleaped itself, and Haman
is being hung on the gallows erected

Frcmont's Letter OF Withdra wal

BosToN, September 22.-The follow
ing letter of General Fremont with
drawing his name as candidate, is pub
lshed to-day: 50
"BosToN, September 81, 1864.
GENTLEMEN l feel it MY duty to
make one step moro in tho direction
indicated by my letter of the 25th Au-
gust, and withdraw my name from the
list of candidates. The Presidential
question has, in effect, been entered
upon in such way, that the union of
the Republican party has become one
of paramount necessity. Thepolitics Of
the Democratic party signify either
separation or re. establishment with
slavery. The Chicago platform is sim
ply separation. General McClellans
letter of acceptance is establishment
with slavery, The Republican candi-
date on the contrary, is pledged to the
re. establishment of the Union without
slavery, and however hcsitating his
policy may be, the pressure of his par
ty will, we may hope, forco him to it.
Between these views, | think no man
of the liberal party can remain in
doubt, and believe / am consistent
with my antccedents in Withdrawing !;
not TO aid in tho triumph Of Mr.. Lin
coins but to do my part toward pre-
venting the election of The Democratic
candidate.
In respect to Mr.. Lincoln, I contin-
uc to hold exactly the sentiments con-
tainod in my letter Of acceptance. |
consider that his Administration has
been politically, miitarily, and finan-
cially a failure. and that its necessary
continuance is q cause of regret to the
country. There never was greater
unanimity in the country than was
exhibited here at the fall of Sumter,
and the South was powerless in the
face of it. But Mr.. Lincoln complete
ly paralyzed this generous feeling
He destroyed the strength of the posi-
tion,, and divided the North when he
declared to the South that slavery
shoulu Uo prolecleu. LIZ UullI uP loi
the South II strength which Otherwise
they could never have attained, and il
has given them an advocate in the Chi.
cago Platform. The Cleveland Con
vention was to have been the open
avowal Of thecondemnation which mer
had been freely expressing to eacl
other for the past two yeas, and which
had been made fully known to the Pre-
sident, but in the uncertain condition
of affairs, leading men were not founc
willing to make public dissatisfaction
and condemnation which could hav,
rendered Mr.. Lincoln's nomination
impossible, and their continued silenc'
and support established for him char
acter among the people, which leave
now no choice until the Republican
party is reasonably sure of success
divided the result of the Presidentia
election is, at the least, doubtful. / am
gentlemen, respectfully and truly
yours. j. q. FREMONT.

HON ALEXANDER LONG, for hi

This is the platform for which Mr.

which, ifgranted, must end in the es
tablishment of theindepOndence of the
Rebel Confederacy.
In presence of the great victories of
Sherman and Sheridan, how despica.
bic ana contemplate are themen, and
how abject is their attitude, who stand
through all these glorious days; with
bowed knees, holding out their hands
to the whipped and flying rebels, cry
ing out for peace. If for no other rea-
son than for shame, let no man who
has any self-respect vote with party

Of President Lincoln toward the re-
bellion. He tried remonstrance first,
then he threw a tuft Of fgrass-Gen.

Davis, wouldn't come down. Then
he threw three large stones-Grant,
Sherman and Sheridan, and before
long jeff will climb down and beg Old
Abe's pardon.
