Governor Brough.

In our last issue we published reso.
lutions from tho 11lth Regiment fa,
voring the reelection of Governor
Brough. In the present number, will
be found q series of resolutions to the
same effect, from the Goth Regiment.
That there is considerable feeling
in tho army against the re-elOction Of
the present Governor we have ne
doubt, but We believe that a vast ma
jority of the soldiers are decidedly in
favor of his reelection. The opposi.
tion is confined principally to officers.
We are not endeavoring now to array
tho privates against tho officers, We
are simply stating a fact. The pri.
Yates and we think a majority of the
officers are satisfied with Brough, and
have been so we'll satisfied with his
administration that they are insisting
upon his filing the chair a second
term. His administration has been
remarkable for economy, quiet onorgy
and prompt and systematic dispatch
Of business. lie is recognized as one
oftho very best executive minds in the
country, and as there are large settle
ments to make with the General Gov.
ernment and a vast amount Of busi.
ness to transact in clearing away the
remains Of tho rebellion, the people
will demand q business mind of the
frat order. We believe great ma.
jority of both soldiers and civilians arc
favorable 10 the denomination O.
Brough, and not disposed to asl
whether or not he will bo tho mos
popular man for the campaign, They
know ho is thoroughly competent, anG
has tho run Of the executive busi
ness.
Among the Military Candidate
prop )sed arc Generals Schenck, Cox
Garfield, Lcggeit, Hays and Stead
man. They are every ono of then
able men, and shall receive hearty
support If nominated
We arc satisfied that tho scntimcn
ofthis county is for Brough, and W
are only giving expression to it in thi
article.

therefore TO DO expected that a man Of

look upon il as II personal quarrel in
which the cause and tho Government
are not involved, 1t IL q personal af

How GRANT FAVORED SHERNAN-The New
York Times relates the following incident:

How GRANT FAVORED SHERNAN.-The New
York Times relates the following incident
just before General Grant initiated his
splendid campaign against ElcKsburg, in the
spring of 1868, and after all the preparations
had been made for swinging loose from the
base of supplies on the Mississippi river, to
make the circuitous inland march via Jack
son Miss, ITO the rear of Vicksburg. he was
called upon by General Sherman, and spok-
en- to as follows: . General Grant, ! feel it
to be my duty to say that as subordinate
officer | am bound to give you my hearty CO.
operation in this movement; but having no
faith in it, | feel it due to my military repu-
tation to protest against it in writing, and
hope that my protest will be forwarded by
you to Washington" "Very WELL Sher-
man." quietly replied the Commanding
General send along your protest I'll take
care of it,"
The next day General Grant received
General Sherman's paper, and The move
ment was then initiated which eliminated,
in less than three months, in the surrender
of Yicksburg and its immense garrison.
Prior, however, to Pembertons capitulation,
but after it was morally certain that the
rebel stronghold must fall, General Sherman
rode up to GeReral Grants headquarters
enc day, and found his chief stretched on
the ground beneath his fly" endeavoring
to keep cool as possible in the sultry midsum-
mer weather. They were chatting pleasant.
ly on the prospects Of the quickly approach
ing success, when General Grants Assistant
Adjutant General came up and asked for
certain paper of official Importance.
1t is well known that General Grant enter
ed upon the campaign without more person
al baggage than a oothbrush.' and this
acconnts for the fact that his official records
were carried in the brest pocket of his mill
tary blouse. Taking { handful of documents
from this receptacle. he selected the one
asked for, ard before putting the rest
away drew forth second paper from the
pile. Then, turning to Sherman. with
merry twinkle in his eye, he said "By
the by. General, here is something that will
interest you" Sherman took it, and saw
the protest. which little more than two
months before he had handed to General
Grant to be forwarded to Washington
through the proper channel. An expression.
balf astonishment and half qualification,
diffused itsslf over Sherman's war-worn fea-
lures, which quickly exchanged to one of
supreme satisfaction when General Grant
took the paper from his hand, and tearing
1T into small fragments, scattered them 10
the winds. No further aluson to the mat.
ter was made on either side

GENERAL GRANT KISSED by TUE FAIR La
DIEs.-On Monday at nine o'clock, the Gen
eral performed the creates. military move
ment of his life. He performed successful
flank movement on the people of Chicago,
and visited Union Hall in quiet and peace,
remaining there till ten o'clock. There were
present a large number Of the most beauti-
full 8 AIDS" and the General was instantly
surrounded by the volunteer staff. Here a
Imaginable incident occurred
Mrs. Livermore said to him, /" Ger eral
Grant, these girls are dying to kiss you
but they don't dare to do it," Well" said
the gallant General, IF they want to kiss
me. why don't they? Nobody has offered to
since | have been here" Instantly about a
hundred fabrics pounced upon him. He at
tempted retreat, but in vain, lie essayed
to break through the rosy ranks, with
out success. Then, for the first time. he
confessed himself vanquished, and calmly
awaited the event. Never was such a man
subjected to such an ordeal. On came the
maidens by squads in file or singy; they
hit him on the forehead pelted him on the
nose smaeked him on the check, chin or neck
There must be dozens of kisses lying around
loose, hidden in the Generals whiskers
During this terrible ordeal. the hero of a
hundred battle fields blushed till his face
became almost purple. At last the girls
were partly appeased in their noble rage"
and he escaped. Voice Of the Fair
