sHEnHDAx,s DISPATCHES.

The st. Clairsville Gazette, of last
week, published the mutilated copy OF
Gen. Phil. SheriJan's dispatch of Au-
gust 1st, to Gen. Grant, and accused
the CHRONICLE of publishing "bogus"
dispatch from that officer. We pub
lish the dispatch below, as we find it
in the Gazette, and ask our readers to
compare it with the genuine dispatch,
to be found in another columns
"You ore doubtless, aware of the serious
riot which occurred in this city on the 30th.
A political bpdy, styling themselves the
Convention OF 1864, met on tho 30th for,
as it is alleged, the purpose of remodeing
the present Constitution of the State. The
leaders are political agitators and revolu.
tioDary men. and the action Of the Convcn.
ton was liable to produce breaches of the
public peace. had made up my mind to
arrest the head men if the proceedings OF
the Convention were calculated to disturb
the tranquility of the Department but /
had no cause for action until they commit
ted the overt act. About forty whites and
blacks were killed, and about one hundred
and sixty wounded.
Everything is now quiet. but deem il
best 20 maintain military supremacy in the
city for few days, until the affair is fully
investigated"
Nothing in the whole history of our
late terrible war is so revolving and
cruel as the premeditated and cold
blooded butchery of Union men on the
3Oth of July, the st. Bartholomew day
of New Orleans, and the suppression
and mutilation of Gen. Sheridan's dis
patches by the President is fit accom-.
panilnent to the brutalities and cruel.

the assent of the President

A BRILLIANT COppERHEAD,

After Mr.. Bingham's nomination at
Cambridge, and while committee was
waiting upon Mr.. b. to inform him Of
his nomination, Dr. West of ST. Clairs-
vile remarked that some of our Bel.
mont delegates would like to hear from
Mr.. b. on "My Policy" The Con-
yention understood what he meant, and
80 would any person who "reads the
papers" But it seems the genius who
presidcs over the Cambridge Jeiierso-
nian did mt "seo the point. Hear
him:
After the farcical domination Of John a.
Bingham last week by the adherents OF the
Hump Cor gress, a call was made for my
policy, as Mr.. Bingham and his fiiends
faeeci9usly term his position on the negro
duesIi6d;'
And then in all hisradNnt simplicity
the editor proceeds to enhmerate the
points of Mr.. Bingham's ''policy,"
and winds up with the following.
We will now see how far the white men
Of this District will epdorse my policy. ("

SMOKED OUT, AT LAST +!

Ever since the publication Of Gen.
Sheridan's dispatches in relation to the
terrible massacre at New Orleans, the
Union papers of the North have charg-
ed the treacherous incumbent Of the
White House with suppressing some
and mutilating others of that officer s
dispatches. These papers, together
with gallant Phil. Sheridan and Grant,
have earnestly demanded the publica-
tion Of those dispatches entire. The
pressure became 80 heavy that Mr..
johnson was forced to yield to it and
furnish them for publication These
dispatches may be found in another
part of this paper, and we call especial
attention to them.
Gen. Sheridan writes as military
man and the commander of Depart
ment, to his chief; yet his language is
very strong and decided. He charac
terizes it rs an "Absolute massacre by
the police, which was not excelled in
murderous cruelty by that of Fort Pill
low" cit was murder
which the Mayor and police of the city
perpetrated without the shadow Of a
necessity" Munroe is bad man, ="
and he repeatedly recommends his re-
moval.
To appreciate the infamy of John
sons dispatch of August to Gen,
Sheridan, the reader must remember
that these queries of the President
were already substantially answered in
Gen Sheridan's dispatches of the lst,
I'd and 81. We can look upon this as
nothing less than an attempt to intim-
iistc and browbeat that officer into an
Endorsement Of the treachery and in
fanny of the President. But, thank God,
he had walked up the wrong man. Read
Phil, Sheridan's ringing response 1t
is as clear and unmistakable and patri
otic as the ring of his sabre in the
Shenandoah Valley or at Five Forks.
The suppression and mutilation of
these dispatches is decidedly the weak
est thing Mr. Johnson has been guilty
Of
I'm the meantime, the report comes
that Sheridan, the matchless soldier
and the hero of hundred battles, is
to be succeeded in command by Gen.
James Barleycorn Steedmani Com,
ment would be superfuous.

AFFAIRS I'm TEXAS.

Twenty one of the citizens of Dallas
County, Texas. in responding to the
call for a Convention of Southern
Unionists, send the following to Capt.
Bingham, Secretary of the Committee.
Itis terrible picture of the workings
of "My Policy"
The address says:
We in Texas are on the eve of another
war, which will be more desperate than tho
one out OF which we have just emerged. =
The former leaders in Rebellion, save somo
dozen Union men elected to gil unimportant
county offices, have all been elected, and
they are more hostile and rabid than they
were during the war or before the State
seeded. Unless Congress furnishes pro-
lection, by directing the troops to remain
and posting them in the most important
towns, there will not be Union man left
in Texas in six months.
The disloyal from other States are coming
in more or less every day, and thousands
are returning from Mexico who went off
with Prince and Shelby, and more des-
perate set never before infested any coun.
try. Murders are an every day occurrence

State in as strict bondage as before the war,
and Union men dare not speak their senti-

organized all over the State, and unless the
State is held under strict military rule we
will have another outbreak in less than six
months.
