Milligan and B0Wles.

These notorious men, whose lives have been
pending in the balance for some months, 1T is final
ly decided, are not to suffer the extreme penalty
OF the law The extraordinary efforts made in
their behalf, have resulted in an order from the
President, committing their punishment to perpet-
ual imprisonment.
We believe that this result will be acceptable TO
majority of our citizens, but we are we'll aware
that il viii be disapproved by great many pltri-
otto and excellent men. Not that they would take
pleasure in the shedding of blood, but because
they believe that these persons merit the punish
ment of death, and that the security of the public
against the repetition of such oenscs in the future
might thus be assured.
There are many considerations, however, in ia
of the course adopted by the President, and we
convinced that they will ultimately prove salts
factory to the most ofthose who have been in ia
vor of hanging the convicts.
l. The public safety does not require their exc.
cution, now that the is ended and the national
authority is firmly established; nor is the prospect
of spending lifetime in a penitentiary, q very
strong inducement to future traitors to repeat the
experiment that has been so unfortunate for MILL
gan and Bowles.
9 There were decided objections in the minds
of many Of the Presidents political friends, to the
tribunal by which the prisoners we're tried and
condemned. Such persons admit the justice OF the
sentence, but insist that the trial should have
been I'M civil court, and that it was dangerous
innovation upon the jurisprudence of the nation,
to nAct the punishment of death upon these men.
by the sentence of Military Commission. Our
r.a.lers know that we have mt s,mnithzad IN

d;crion; hut in question involving peril To tn"

for the general welfare. nd equally faithful to tbs
party which placed our President in power.

Many romantic incidents have happened in the
last four years, and Oft have we been made to be.
lieve that truth is stranger than fiction. Our citi
zens well remember that at the commencement oil
the war; George and Frank Frazier enlisted in the
service of their country, in company with many OF
our patriotic bows. George first enlisted in the 9th
Ind Reg, during the three months service. and
afterwards in the 9th Ill. Cavalry. Frank enlisted
in the celebrated Marine Brigade. After having
participated in all the battles aud skirmshes in
in which his regiment was engaged, George was
reported wounded, and captured at the fight near
Columbia. Tenn, on the 24th of November, 1864.
Il was reported here that he died at a small town
in Northern Mississippi, and the writer was shown
memorandum of the place of his burial, and even
copy of the inscription on the board at his grave.
His mother and friends mourned bin as dead.
Frank had not been heard from for more than
two years, and Mr. and Mrs. Frazier had come to
the sad conclusion, that the SONS they had fondly
looked on as the stay and prop of their declining
years, had preceded them to the tomb. The hope
that they would return when the war was over had
about expired, and their hearts ached when they
thought of the boys they should see more.
Thus it was when on Friday evening, few
moments after the arrival of the train from Chica-
go, George raped at his fathers door-not in the
spirit, but ia the flesh-and TO the JOY and amaze
ment of the family the lost son and brother stood
before them. 1t was happy meeting. but soon
came the thought that Frank is gone. Frank
never will come. More than two years hid passed
away and no tidings Whilst thoughts like these
moved the mothers heart, as only mothers heart
can be moved, an hour perhaps passed. and then
another rap was heard The door was opened.
and there stood Frank. We will not undertake
to describe that meeting. One had been captur-
ed and endured the horrors OF the Anderson Pris
on; the other had boon captured by Pirates the
Ocean, but both were now at home. God bless
them May they live long, and cheer and com.
fort their parents as age steals upon them and
ripens them fo1 the grave.-Val. Rep.

The Sherman Stanton Controversy.

w ASHlNGTeS, june u
Secretary Stanton does not nten to ALLOW him
self to be drawn into newspaper controversy with
Gen Sherman. TIE Secretary feels conscious that
his action in the Shern M Johnston armistice was
for the best interest OF the country. and he is
tent that the matter shall rest where il lies,
notwithstanding he has an abundance of documen-
tary evidence at his command to prove the fllacy
OF many of Sherman's arguments.
General Sherman as is well known, proclaimed
peace from the Potomac to the Rio Grande. Yet,
at that time, none knew better than he that two
large rebel armies wero still in the field. Dick Tav-
lor's and Kirby Smiths besides various dctach-
ments of hostile rebels, scattered throughout the
several Southwestern States, numbering aggrc-
gate of 100, 900 men, which Johnston did not even
pretend to surrender. In order to check false
impression which was rapidly spreading throughout
the country, Stanton's disapproval of these terms
was spread before the public Immediately upon
the receipt of the Sherman and Johnston memo
randum. Gen. Grant was sent 10 North Carolina
with orders relieve Sherman should he refuse
move against Johnston Immediately.

prisoners clearly subjected them to the punishment
of traitors, yet they had put them in execution
not from lack of inclination, but because of the
vigorous action Of the authorities; and thoy did
not actually strike the meditated blow, justice
can be satisfied with a punishment less than
death.
These views as well "a the general policy of
mercy, have been urged upon the President by
prominent Union men of this and other States,
and we believe that justice tempered with mercy
will, in these particular cases, have more bcne-
fetal influence than the execution of three wretches
who have lost all their former consequence, and
will hencefortf be powerless for mischief-Ind.
