New YORK, July 12-By order of Major
General Duryea, the 18th and 36th regiments,
Brooklyn State militia are to be recruited

New YORK, July 12.-On Sunday night Or
ders were received at the Navy Yard here to
dispatch at once to Baltimore as large force
Of sailors as could be mustered at this station
to man the imprOmptu batteries in the neigh
borhood of that city. Admiral Paulding imme.
diately answered the call by sending quite a
number from the school ship North Carolina,
and it is presumed like drafts will be made on
other Navy Yards for gnnners.
New YORK, July 12.-The following is the
REL ly of Major General Sanford to the letter
from Gunther:
1sT DIVISION N. Y. STATE NATIONAL GUARD
New York, July -.
Hon. G. G,antter, -ndyor City Of New York:
S1R-Although cannot concur in your de-
finition of patriotism. 1 fully agree with you in
the necessity of retaining an organized and dis
ciplined militia force in our city sufficiently
strong to suppress all lawless and evil disposed
members of the community, by o renewal of
the scenes of arson and plumber which disgrace
ed our city last summer, during the absence OF
the regiments.
In answer to the present call of the President
on the Governor of the State, only 3, 500 men
have been detailed from this division, as our
quota of the $4,000 required, and after this de-
tachment is withdrawn l shall retain IL Of the
disciplined regiments of the First division in
the city, ready, willing and abundantly able to
put down promptly any demonstration against
the peace and good order Of the community.
regret that after the explanation of yester-
day in person you should have deemed it ne
cessary to publish your letter, and hope
therefore you will have no objections to the
publication of this answer to allay any fears
which you may have excited.
l am, very respectfully. your Obedient SER
want, G. N. SANFORD, Major Gen.

FROM sHERMAN,s ARMY.
News up to July 2...The Army after
the Assault.

CINCINNATI, July 8.-The Commercials letter
dated Before Kenesaw, July g." says:
Yesterday few shots were exchanged on
Davis front, and small number were wounded
on both sides, when men recklessly exposed
their heads above the breastwOrk on either
line. On other portions of the line however,
the same quietness existed, except when
mounted officers presented their bodies as
targets, when the sharpshooters paid them
their compliments. In the afternoon our ar
tillery opened few guns, to which the enemy
did not reply. This morning we are again
manifesting our presence by lOosing upon them
our "dOgs of war;" to cause a diversion from
other portions of the line, where it may not
nOw be improper to state, our attention has
been conferred for some days, with view to
accomplish by strategy what could never be
accomplished by direct assault.
Gen. jeff. Davis sapping of the rebel works
is progressing rapidly. His workmen are now
so near the enemy that ia the absence of being
able to fight with guns, the men crouch low in
their respective works and hurl rocks at each
other. All manner of missiles are used. Col
Dan. McCooks brigade is now commanded by
Col. Dillworth, 85th Illinois, who already has
made himself very popular with the command.
For three days he has spent most of the time
in our trenches with his men, with shovel in
hand, throwing up dirt and personally super.
intending the sapping operations.
Shermans premature announcement of the
flight of the rebels was based upon the report
OF the army commanders 1t, doubtless, orr
ginated in the fact, that on the morning of the
18th, John A. Logans skirmisher's occupied
the main rebel works at the base of the noun
tains, and they supposed the enemy had also
abandoned the SUBMITS and precipices. When
Sherman received the intelligence, he dispatch
ed to Secretary Stanton: IS start at once for
Marietta" and ordered the United States rail-
road train to proceed to that depot. Both
started and came back again. The boys say
that Old johnson was too busy to see them
that day. Next week will do justas WELL

ThurlOw Weeds Speculation In

From the Milwaukee Wisconsin.
While at New Orleans last winter. we heard
the following version of Mr.. Weeds specuIa-

Secretary Seward. Mr.. w. was informed in the
autumn that the President would recommend
in his annual message large increase of the
whisky tax. Mr.. Weed thereupon called the
large whisky dealers in New York together
and informed them that he had valuable infor,
ma; ion which must greatly increase the nrice
of whisky; in fact he intimated that the Pres

such an increase Of tax as would advance wh;s-

New York, and hold it at large advance al IN

The Late Josiah Quincy First
New England Secessiontst.
From the Buffalo Courier.

From the Buffalo Courier
Josiah Quincy, Sen., died at Quincy, Mass,
on Saturday last, at the advanced age of ninety.
two. He was born in Boston, February 18th,
TYP; graduated at Harvard in 1890; was elect
ed to the Massachusetts Senate in 1904, and was
chosen representative in Congress in 1905.
He held his seat by reelection until 1873 and
participated in the discussion of the events of
the last war with Great Britain, of which he
was bitter opponent. In an Grafton delivered
before the Washington Benevolent Society in
April, 1873 he took occasion not only to de {.
nOunce the war with Great Britain, but to i'm
pugn the motives of the national ralers.
whenever" he said. the rulers of nation
became the mere heads of party, the last and
least consideration with them is the good of
the people," In June, 1918, just after he had
taken his seat in the State Senate, he reported
and carried the famous resolutions, on q pro-
posed vote of thanks to Capt. Lawrence, tnat.
" In war like the present. waged without
justifiable cause, it was not becoming q moral
and religious people to express any approba-
ton of military and naval exploits not imme-
diately connected with the defense of our sea-
coast and SOIL"
In 1914, the question arose in Congress in
regard to the act enabling the Orleans Terrific
~, purchased from France to erect itself into a
State This bill was introduced in January.
and Mr.. Quincy resisted its passage with all his
energy, on the ground that Congress had no
right to erect States out of Territory not with
in the boundaries ofthe original thirteen States.
In q speech on the 14th of January. he assert
ed that it was ''his deliberate opinion that. if
this bill passes, the bonds of this Union are
virtually dissolved; that the states that COM
pose it are free from their moral obligations to
maintain it, and that, as it will be right of ali.
80 it will be the duty of some to prepare def,
nitely for separation amicably, if thew can.
violently it they must" This was the first as
sertion of the right of secession on the floor of
Congress, and the Iribuse, in an elaborate obit-
nary article, says . he adhered to the opinion
that the moral obligation Of the old States to
remain in the Union was released by the pas
sage of the bill, to the day of his death" In
this speech he said The bill is death blow to
the Constitution. 1t may afterwards linger;
but lingering, its fate will at no distant period
be cOnsummated."
Mr. Quincy claimed to be Fede.alist, and
while he never identified with any political Or
ganization after the Federal Party ceased to be
q power, he supported Fremont in 1855, and
Lincoln in 1860. The idea of the right of Sc
cession, it will be seen. is of Massachusetts, or
igin. Some ten years later South Caroline
adopted IL and Jackson sQuelched it.
