impu,sye and laxative by sOIne regarded as half mad
when the III il on him, General Sherman possesses
character which unless am mistaken is Of the stuff
IF which great and mysterious actors In history are
ofien made"
Such are the allegations quoted to fix the
stigma of treason upon Gen. Sherman, and to
prove that his negotiations with Johnston
were the elimination Of deep-lald
conspiracy between himself and the
Rebels to overthrow the Government OF
the United States, and to put in his hand the
scepter OF O Dictator "Flapdaldlc' is de-
fined as " the stuff that fools are fed on" We
have here a striking illustration. Gen. Sher-
man has done an unwise thing, unquestionably,
but thing perfectly characteristic OF the
man. But wise or foolish he left it
open for the decision OF the Govern
ment at Washington which, had it been
meant TO be reasonable thing, he certainly
would not have done. Let US not be frightened
out of our common sense by such hobgoblins As
these even if such high authority as the War De-
partment assures the country that the removal
of military force from little village III a
sparsely populated region Of North Carolina
opened the gates of Mexico, 1900 miles away,
to the escape OF jeff. Davis.

GEN. ALBERT PIKE, of Arkansas,
presided over the recent meeting of
Free Masons of the "ancient Scottish
rite" at Charleston, s. O., and made n
speech, in which he said:-
SIN war, when hell legislntes for hu-
manity and all the horrible influences
that can debase and demoralize men
nre husily at work, Masonry can do
little even to soften the horrors and
temper the hatreds of strife that She
was powerleSS to avert. In some omar
tiers, indeed, her laws were sought 10 he
trainpled under foot, and Masonic priv-
ileges to be denied to those whom her
brethren thought it Masonic piety to
brand as rebels" ~
If hell legislated during the war. Pike
was one of its chief executive officers.
and there was nothing more hellisb
in all the outrages of the rebellion than
Pixies organizing the western Indians
forthe murder and pillage of loyal men.
We should hope that northern Masons
would modify their official respect for
the Industrious brother Pike" with a
large amount of manly contempt for
Pike, the renegade Yankee and organ
izer of Indian butchers.

THE New York republicans have con-
cluded to mix in with the other parties
in the coming municipal election, and
have nominated Marshal o. Roberts, a
well known and wealthy shipper, for
mayor, and Murray Hoffman for cor
poration counsel. The campaign is
now fairly inaugurated, and the week
that intervenes before the election will
be lively one. The Tammany demo.
Gratis, tho real unterrified, go in for
John t. Hoffman, the present recorder
and very good man for Tammany
democrat, for mayor. Fernando Wood
and his companions of the Mozart
clique want to spite Tammany, and so
support John Hecker, who is the nomi-
nee of the Citizens Association, which
aims at reform in municipal affairs.
Mayor Gunther has been compliment
ed by a denomination by "A handful of
democrats, and the Army and NAVY
league and the workingmen have nomi-
mated John w. Farmer, of free soup
house notOriety, but the contest will
really be between Roberts, Hoffman
and Hecker, with the chances against
Roberts, certainly. Either Hoffman or
Hecker will probably make better
mayor than New York has had for
some time, but their political antece-
dents are not of the republican stamp,
and the election of either of them will
be claimed as democratic victory.
Possibly the republicans may succeed
in squeezing in Mr.. Roberts, in oonse-
quenco OF the divisions among their op-
Ponents, and if so it will be all the bet
teri but whoever of the three shall be
elected cannot fail to make n better
mayor than Gunther has been. In fact
the mayor of New York is hardly more
than municipal cipher, any way, and
there are many other city officers that
hold much more important and respon-
sible places. Richard o'Gorman has
the support of Tammany, Mozart and
the Citizens,.Association for corporation
counsel, and will probably secure the
election.

Having Travelled over considerable of
West Virginia, have heard the Capt.
tai discussed at every point, and with
out an exception citizens, outside of
Parkersburg, Clarksburg, Weston and
Buckhannon, are unanimously of one
opinion. And as the above places, eS-
pecially Parkersburg and Clarksburg,
desire becoming commercial towns, IL
is to their interest, as we'll as the inter
est OF the State generally, to improve
and open up the interior that they NAV
find market to exchange stores for
produce. The unanimous opinion seems
as follows: Let the State purchase q
thousand acres:or more of cereal land
with water, coal and stone in album
dance, on or near the line of the talked
of Central railroad, and near the centre
Of the State, and there lay. out a city
on modern plan, with the Capitol
buildings and parks to be in the
centre. The lots to be sold accord
ing to value, and the proceeds go to
paying the expense of capitol buildings,
&c. This plan, without a doubt, would
be the only one that would open up that
part of the State; and which will never
be of any benefit without something of
an inducement is offered for it is i'm
provement. This situation of the Capt.
tai would make the centre of the State
the most important, and being SO, bust
ness and improvements of the surround-
ing country would finally meet those
of the borders, and the already improv-
ed interior country along the line of
railroads, thus giving the benefit of the
Capitol alike to every one OF the States
citizens. This plan was unanimously
adopted by some twenty-five who were
| at Huntsville attending court, besides
each one agreed to emigrate there with
his business. There was almost every
branch of business represented, farm
ers, tanners, blacksmiths, wagon ma
kers, lawyers, merchants, with Two saw
and flour mills. tits the desire of Richie

IT has been said that the Republicans
will endeavor to unseat John P. Stock
ton, who was declared to be elected
United States Senator from New Jersey
last Winter. The facts in the case are
reported as follows: By thelaws of New
Jersey majority of all The voters pres
ent must support a man, in order to
elect him. The whole number of votes
cast at the election last winter was 81,
of which Stockton received 40, a plural
ity, but not majority. The o. S. SEN
ate will now be asked to declare that he
is not entitled to seat.

An election not held according to law
is not in essence an election, unless the
noncompliance be of a merely tech
meal and non-essential nature. No
one can pretend to attribute this nature
to a total disregard of a special enact
ment of the Legislature, SO vital in its
character as to excite a fortnight's ami
mated discussion in that body and
months of discussion throughout the
State. The Boards of Supervisors of
Jefferson, Morgan and Hardy in the le-
gitimate exercise of the judicial powers
conferred by section 81 of the election
law, upon the evidence, sworn or other
wise, which they had authority to sum-
mon, decided that no elections, under
the law, were held at certain precincts
in those counties, and in SO deciding,
we cannot doubt, performed duty and
exercised an authority with which they
were fully invested. @
In Hampshire county, which gave the
copperhead candidates a large majority,
the proceedings on the day of the cleo
ton were similar TO those in the coun-
ties mentioned. At one precinct neith-
er inspectors nor supervisors took the
official oath required by chap. log, acts
1868; large number of the votes cast at
the poll were by men who had Just re-
turned from the rebel army; a party
attempted to challenge their votes and
was ordered away by the Supervisor,
and threatened with arrest and impris-
onment.
At another, the supervisor neither
took the oath referred to nor required it
Of the inspectors, and allowed rebels to
vote Unfortunately.
AT another, the rebels went to the
poll before sunrise, took possession,
appointed as supervisor a man who had
recently come out of the rebel army,
and he appointed inspectors of the
same stripe-none of whom qualified
according to law, of course.
AT another about the same state of
facts existed. The polls were kept open
till after dark, and third of the vote
cast were by men who had been in the
rebel army throughout the war.
These three precincts went almost
unanimously for the copperhead ticket.
Doubtless other "irregularities"-or de-
fiances of law-existed in other parts OF
the county. 1t strikes us, If Messrs.
Downey and Kennedy contest, they are
likely to lose much in Hampshire and
gain little in the rest of the circuit. II
the supervisors of this county had done
their duty, their return would have
been very different from what it was.
There are many facts connected with
the election in other quarters that OK
hibit equally AS shameful conduct and
bad faith on the part of the returned
rebels and their friends as those al
ready noticed in the Tenth; but we
have no space to speak of them to-day.

A PERSONAL COLLISION AT RICH
MoSD, 1ND.-Yesterday afternoon about
3 o'clock, while Hon. Geo. w. Julian
was waiting in the lady's room of the
depot ut Richmond, Ind, he was APP
preached by Sol. Meredith, Esq, who,
after speaking a few words, struck him
(Julian) and partially knocked him
down. Meredith then drew a cowhide
from under his coat and proceeded to
apply it to Mr.. Julian, continuing until
by-standers interfered. The immediate
cause of the difficulty we have not
learned. The remote cause is, we sup
pose, political jealousy. Mr.. Meredith
was lately candidate in the district for
a nomination 10 Congress, but was de-
feated by Mr.. Julian, which, we sup
pose, was in accordance with the wishes
of the people, and it is not probable that
the knock down argument which Mr..
Meredith has tried will be effective in
changing the views of the majority who
exercise the elective francise in that To-
cality.

in the appointment by the President of
the 9TH of December as Thanksgiving

The Organization of the Next I,ert,.
lalura

An article in the last Clarksburp
Telegraph INDUCES some speculations
concerning the organization of the two
Houses of the next Legislature. 1t
suggests that Messrs. Peck and Max
well, as the only lawyers in the Senate,
cannot be spared for the chair and thinks
the probabilities favor the reelection
AS president, of Mr.. Stevenson, of Wood,
and gives our friend Ellery r. Hall,
Esq. present Clerk of the Senate. IA
passing compliment, as a probable
candidate for reelection.
The singular fact is noted that there
is not a single lawyer elected to the
next House, and it is claimed that Har-
rison is the only county that has sent
back its delegates more than twice-they
having been reelected for the fourth
time. 1t is suggested in the same con-
nection that one or the other of these
gentlemen will be the most available
Union candidate for the next Speaker
of the House.
Our talented young friend, w. p.
Hubbard, Esq, present Clerk of the
House, comes in for friendly mention
as prospective candidate for Clerk OF
the next House.
