dred thousand in Illinois, and its inAu-
ence on the canvass in that State will

the same order is now being eX-
tensively propagated in the East, and
II promises to embrace q membership
of two thirds Of all the soldiers of the

The Democratic triumph in New
York City, which is the remains of the
eontrol Of thanparty in the North, is
the triumph 0f party which has
made the government of that city the
viIest on Garth. This is not only an
opposition charge, but 1t is. the general
consent of all parties 1t is the tri.
umph of party which has made
stealing an institution OF government
which openly carries on plumber OF
tho public, that, it perpetrated by in
dividuals, would bring them to the
penitentiary.
Firmly established in the control OF
the city by means of the ignorant and
criminal and dangerous classes which
are gathered there, and which make
that city great ulcer on the body
politic, the Democratic party has therc
given its nature full play, and it has
placed the vilest scoundrels OF the
community in the Government. 1t is
an exemplification of pure Democracy,
such as it tends to everywhere, but
which has nowhere else had the op.
portunity to work out its nature.
as disloyaL as it is vile. it has made
New York City center for Southern
rebels, who have aided in this triumph
of scoundrelism. We speak of ras.
cality which men of all parties admit;
of official villainies which disgrace
popular government, and which the
enemies of Republicanism adduce to
prove its failure in government. No.
thing but moral revolution could
have overthown the Democratic con
troll Of New York City. That'was i'm
possible, and therefore the Democracy
carried the city.-Cn. Gaz.

THn snnMMAN MExICAN MISSION

THE SHERMAN MEXICAN MAsS1ON'
Lit General Sherman embarked on
Saturday the 10th inst. for Mexico, in
company with the regular Minister to
that Republic, Hon. L D. Campbell,
of Ohio. 1t is the general impression
that General Sherman is charged with
a special mission Of the highest impor-
tance, connected with the settlement Of
the vast questions arising out of the pc
culiar condition of the Mexican country
and government. We are impressed
with the belief that it is the hope of
the Administration that 'the General
will so popularize himself by some
magnificent arrangement conducting to
the territorial aggrandisement of the
United States, as 10 render him form
idable competitor for Presidential hon.
ors IN the next contest, with wlom u
head off the abhorred Radicals in Tho
terrible schemes they are supposed t.
entertain. Whether the General car
be moulded into an instrument for car
rying out the designs of those looking
to the strictly political ends of thi
mission remains to be seen. The i'm
mediate business intrusted to 1t. Gen
eral Sherman, We have no doubt will
be transacted in mastorly manner
and we trust it may bo such as to re
dound to his own true fame, and tn
best interests Of both Mexico and tn
United States.
