1t seems that the Department at Wash.

correct the returns OF Income Tax. The
Cincinnati Gazette says:
The Assessor Of Internal revenue in the
4th district of Indiana is proceeding vig-
orously, under instructions from Wash.

ing extreme measures. This work was
commenced last week at Brookville, and
the Assessor will attend at Lawrenceburg,
Dearborn county, commencing to day, for
the same purpose. 1t is the duty of citi-
zens who have made full returns to give
information to the Assessor that may aid
him in the discharge of his duties, and
those who have committed errors will find
ii their interest to see the officer immedi-
ately. We presume this notice will ap-
ply, in substance, to other districts, for
the instructions from Washington are
general and everywhere investigations
must be thorough, if Assessors do their
duty as Mr.. Kgger is doing his.

A Democratic President.

Since the Inauguration of Andrew johnson
as president of the United States, we have
failed to disco er anything in the numerous
speeches that have been made by him to the
delegations from the several states, to con
denim. Indeed, things look hopeful. Ten
nessee gave US one model president, why
cannot she give us another?
Already the abolItionists are becoming
alarmed at the evidences OF democracy which
are daily furnished by the president. His
declaration in favor OF the principle of popu-
lar sovereignty, and the doctrine of states
rights, and opposition to consolidation and
Capitalization, korrifes them extremely. OF
one thing abolition may be certain, President
johnson, whatever may be his action on Ger
tain measures advocated by them, has no
feelings IN common with them. He was born
a democrat, and, as yet, has not departed
from the old landmarks of the faith.
President johnson has an open future be
fore him. 1t is true he was nominated and
elected by party he had not belonged to-
Not because they approved of his principles
but because his name strengthened theil
ticket. He is therefore bound by no political
alliances. but is free to shape his admins
tration for the good of the whole people,
Before the end of his term of Office, we shall
expect to see the abolition heaping all man
ner of abuse upon him. The democracy will
stand by him IN every wise and liberal man
sure he may take.-Joliet Signal.

General sherman

When the intelligence first came of the
terms of the agreement between Generals
Sherman and Johnston, which the radicals,
led by Mr.. Secretary Stanton, made the occa-
sion of an attempt to destroy In the public
mind the fair fame of the brilliant Union gen.
eral, we asked for supervision OF the public
judgement respecting the transaction until
all the facts could be known aud Gen. Sher.
man himself heard. confident that these facts
would fully exonerate him and his own ex-
planatlon would perfectly vindicate him. The
public has not had TO wait long for the facts.
Gen. Grant brought them ON his return
from South Carolina to Washington. and they
are such as will as entirely satisfy the cuun-
try as they did Gen. Grant. They show
that Gen. Sherman though he was carrying
out the policy of the government as it had
been disclosed ia the terms of the surrender
of Lee and in the permission of the president
for the assembling of the rebel legislature of
Viaginia,-these events being the latest
advices from the north In the pos
session of the federal commander
He was striving TO do that which seemed
to him to be right according to the light by
which he was compelled to be guided Or
the perfect purity and patriotism of his mo
tlves there is not the remotest shadow of
doubt. His error was wholly from the in
suffciency of the information upon which he
acted, and the alacrity with which he pro.
ceeded to repair it, when informed of it, is
another jewel in the chaplet with which the
country crowns his great services.
We submit that nothing more brutal has
occurred during the whole war than the radi.
cal attempt against Gen. Sherman 1t i'm
pagned not only his wisdom and discretion,
but his fidelity. 1t suggested that he med
tated treason and military dictatorship in
his own person! 1t demanded that he should
be crucihed, aud we have seen how willing a
leader was Mr.. Secretary Stanton in the
crusade
1t is is difficult to understand this radical hos
tility to Gener Sherman We know that it ex
ists and that it is equally intense against General
Grant. The especial objects of it are the two
generals by whose genius the rebellion has been
suppressed. 1t has been repulsed for the time.
but we see that it only awaits opportunities
for action hereafter. lts hero is Ben. Butler and
1t must be his malignity that stimulated it on the
late occasion and that will stimulate it in the fu-
ture. Ben. Butler is the leader of the radicals

JEFF. Davis.

NV YORK, May IA SPECIAL from Rail
eigh, N. c., says
JEFF. Davis left there April 25th, bound for
Texas, escorted by detachment of cavalry,
under Generals Eehos and Basil Duke. They
numbered about 5000, and had with them a
train of about 20 wagons. Gen. S,oneman
was within ten miles of Charlotte, his pick.
cts being on the banks of the Cstawb a river
1t is his opinion that Stoneman could have
captured the whole command, if not Davis
himself, If he had attacked any time previous
to the 25th.
Davis made speech at Charlotte few
days before he left, promising to have anoth.
Basil Dukes command burned the public
buildings, ransacked private stores and com
mitted various outrages on property and the
persons of citizens. His men are mainl Y
Kentuckians and Texans, and were formerl Y
under Morgan.

Chief Justice Chase and Gen. sherman.

WASHINGTON, April 90, 1855.
VIM. G. Deshler, Treasurer Sherman Testimonial:
MY DEAR SIR: Inclosed IL q contribution to
the Sherman fund.
Il take this moment for making it, because, just
now, many seem to forget his great deservings,
and remember only his recent convention with
Johnston.
But that act, however regretted and disap-
proved, must not cancel in our memories, or even
obscure his splendid services.
His patriotism is no more doubted than his
courage. No mans achievements have contribu-
ted more TO the grand triumph Of Union and free
dom over rebellion and slavery. His deeds are
among the choicest treasures of our own Ohio
as well Of our whole country. And We, the
children of Ohio, are bound especially, and by the
most sacred obligations, to defend and protect
the good name of every brave and loyal son she
has. She has none Drawer or more loyal thar
Sherman. Yours, most truly,
S. p. CHASE.
