SPEECH OF GEx. LoGAs.-Major Gen.
Logan recently addressed q large crowd
at Jacksonville, Illinois, upon the occa-
sion Of serensde, and in referring to
the reconstruction policy of the Admin
istration, he said it was but an expert
ment, and he was willing to endorse it
so long as there was any hope of its
success. he confessed, however, that
be did not like this wholesale system of
pardoning rebels. He was opposed to
the restoration Of the rights of citizen
ship until the rebels had brought forth
fruits meet for repentance. He eau
toned bis auditory in the most pungent
terms to avoid companionship or frater-
nization with any person or party who
had sympathized with rebellion, or it's
aiders or abettors. His speech lasted
upwards Of an hour, and was frequently
interrupted by the most impressive
cheers.

GEz. BuTLER's REsIGxAr1ox. = The
New York Tribune says that the recent
statement that has found its way into
the papers, to the effect that Gen. But
Ter has never rendered bis resignation,
does great injustice to that gentleman.
The truth is, that the General not only
rendered his resignation, but called upon
the President and begged him to accept
it, as be desired to close up bis affairs
with the Government, go to New York,
and resume the practice Of Law. The
President declined, saying that bis pres
snt reconstruction policy was an expert
ment; he did not know bow it would
succeed; and, if it failed, he would want
the General to 90 into the South and
take bold. For this reason the resigna-
ton wNs'not accepted.

CoPPERHEAD FALsEHooDs.-The sys-
tematic and unblushing misrepresenta-
tons of Copperhead newspapers is I'M
paralleled in the history Of the world.
Some leading spirit in the semi-rebel
fraternity-some elder child of the Fa-
.her of Lies, such as he of the Chicago
Times or New York Nescs-puts forth a
lie, and straightway the whole family
pass it along, adding to and increasing
its magnitude as it goes "
No matter if it be contradicted by
official authority and the most irrefra-
gable documentary evidence, these pa.
psrs never allow their dupes to know
the truth. So r. 4'5-.t
The most silly falsehood recently put
forth was that the Fourth National Bank
of New York had earned in six months
1885, 900, while it's capital stock was but
$500, 900; and although it has been Off
cialIy announced that the capital stock
of the bank is $4,000, 900, not one Of
these lying sheets has had the honesty
to make the correction. Shame on such
mendacityl

A prominent Democrat of this city,

Judge EBoWman had no particular

racy.
The New Jersey Herald is very indig-
nant that this dashing officer should cut
loose from the opposition and join the
Union party, and claims that he is guilty
Of ingratitude in so doing, TO which
charge the General replies:
$50 far from being thankful for the
notice of me in the New Jersey Herald
during the war, and the alleged assist
ance rendered to secure my advance
ment, l WAS actually alarmed when any
article appeared in its columns in my
praise, and | at once asked my friends,
What blunder have / made, and how
have injured the cause2 / well knew
the New Jersey Herald only praised
those who blnndered most.
Besides, would rather not have had
the praise of those who had not the
manhood to join and fight for the trail
tors Of the South, but like towards re-
manned at home, encouraging, by all the
sneaking means in their power, the enc
mics of the Union"
Referring to charge that he had car
ried two newspaper correspondents with
bis command for the purpose of writing
up his exploits, the General says:
'For the past two years / have served
under that illustrious chief, General
Sherman, whose aversion to newspaper
reporters was long since established,
and during that whole time never saw
newspaper reporter-save one who
visited me on one occasion, when, for a
remark made in presence of my Adiu-
tant General, he YVES kicked out of my
headquarters, as any other lying news
paper reporters or editors, the editor of
the New Jersey Herald included, will be /
if they should chance to visit my head
quarters. / am well satisfied with the
good opinion the people Of Sussex have
formed of me, and have no fears that
the Herald can change that opinion by
cowsrdly attacks and false statements
made IN my absence.

We trust that the Union men of our
city win not forget tina. tia County Con-
vention is to assemble at the Court
House this afternoon at one o'clock.
II is especially desirable that the Con-
vention be well attended. The very
important Offices Of Auditor, Sheriff,
and County Commissioner are to be
filed at the October election, and il
behooves the Union men to nominate
good and capable men for those posi-
tons, if they expect to succeed in elect
ing them. Fs
Our Primary Conventions are never
attended as they ought to be. Business
men, especially, always have some ex-
cuse for being absent from the Conven-
tiOns, and yet are quite ready to find
fault if incompetent or dishonest men
are put in nomination. They should
take this matter into their own hands.
They should see to II that none but
good men are nominated, and then
there will be no occasion for fault
finding. Bad nominations are fully az
ehargeable to those who stay away from
Conventions and refuse to do their duty,
as to those who participate and make
unwise selections. .g8
The prosperity Of the county depends
largely upon the business capacity,
prudence, and integrity Of our County
Commissioners; yet how Indifferent are
the people as to who is nominated and
elected to that positiohl II not unfre-
quently happens - indeed, may we not
say it most always happens - that
men are chosen for the management
and disbursement Of thousands upon
thousands Of the peoples money who
are ignorant of the first principles Of
political economy, and who never, in
all their lives, we're personally inter
ested in any commercial or business
transactions that involved more than a
few hundred dollars. Our county has
been sdisgraced BY County Commits
sioners so deficient as to be scarcely
able to write their own names intelli-
gibly.
We repeat that we hope our business
men viii not suffer the. Convention to
go BY default to-day. To attend it will
require but an hour or two of time,
which could not possibly be spent to q
better advantage.

SwrSDLED OUT OF OsE HUNDRED Dol
LARS. = Last night gentlemen from
Kentucky, whose name we did not learn,
made complaint at the Hammond Street
station-house that he had been swindled
ont of one hundred dollars by the con-
fdsnce game, 1t is the old story of the
sharper and his victim. The Kentuck-
ian got acquainted with the "agres-
able sharper, and suspecting nothing
wrong, loaned the hundred dollars on q
forged check, till the bank opened. /"
OF course the sharper was not to be seen
after he received the money. If people
