The Acting AttOrney-Genera

The most remarkable thing in the re-
Gently published report regarding Dun
ham, al5as Sanford Conover, is the fact of
its showing who is occupying the respon-
sible position of acting Attorney General
of the United States 1t is a place one
would think that calls for high legal learn
ing, and yet it is filled by certain John
M. Buckley. He is noted for being q
strong Southerner in feeling, and for his
brass He was clerk in the Land Office,
under the Administration of President Blu
chanan. When Mr.. Lincoln came into
office he knew that he and others who had
been equally violent in their disloyal dem
onstratons would be removed at once. In
order to stay few months longer, he sent
in his letter of resignation, to take effect
four months from date, thinking he would
thus be permitted to stay until that time.
He was disappointed, being at once re-
moved. He then went with his family not
very far from Fortress Monroe, Va, where
he stayed until 1864, reading law and loaf
ing. In 1864 he returned to this city, and
became claim agent. 1t did not pay, and
in 1866 he obtained a vacant editorship on
the National Ln,telIigencer here. He was
discharged from that in 1866, partly be-
cause of his worthlessness, and partly be-
cause he represented himself to outsiders
as runping the paper himself From then
to the early part of this year he idled and
read law; he was then given cletkship
in the Attorney Generals office. He is
now acting Attorney General, and distin-
guished only for his ignorance, Southern
sympathies, and brass His mother-in-law
is sister of the rebel Gen. Joe Johnson

1t is evident that the people of the North
have no great reverence for the leaders in
the great rebellion. 1t is only few days
since JEFF. Davis was Kissed, and even
stoned, in Vermont village; and now we.
are informed that Generals Beauregard and
Magruder were introduced in the Stock
Exchange of New York, ON Friday, and
Kissed as they left. Both were officers in
the service of the United States at the out
break of the rebellion. Beauregard was in
command of West Point, and swOre and
cursed thence all the way down to New
York, when he was compelled TO surrender
the. command by an order from Washing
ton Magruder commanded a battery,
subsequently known as Ricketts, Battery,
attached to Summers Corps, Sedgwick's
Division. AT the battle of Fair Oaks he
encountered his old battery, and is said
to have declared he would take it if 1t cost
thousand lives, He charged on it three
times successfully, with desperate valor,
leading his men into the very Jaws Of
death, in the vain hope OF securing the
coveted prize. His men exhibited extraor-
binary steadiness, moving up and closing
the thinned ranks with a precision worthy
of the bravest veterans But the battery
poured its deadly grape into their faces !;
the traitor was unable to recover the guns
he had so basely deserted.
Like jeff. Davis, both of these Generals
are unrepentant rebels. They had both
eaten the bread of the United States Gov
ernment and lived on its bounty prior to
their treason. JEFF himself drew his sal
airy up to the time he left the Senate TO
take the lead in the rebellion. The people
of the North are a forgiving people. They
have no vindictivc feelings toward the
people of the South. They are ready to
bury all feelings of unkindness for any
rebel who repents of his sins, or accepts
the situation in good faith But for
snch rebels as these, who betrayed
the Government whose bounty they
had shared, and still cling TO the
" lost cause" and mourn on account of it's
failure, they have no sympathy. Treason
is rapidly becoming odious, and such reb-
els as these had better quietly pursue their
own business at home, and not attempt to
thrust themselves on Northern society,"

POLITICAL.
property.

gY Happily the franchise question is
removed from Tennessee politics, for five
years at least, it being impossible under
Andrew Johnson's constitution, to disturb
it within that time.
gB Gen. Grant holds his commission in
pursuance of law and he cannot be de.
prived of it by the President His Office
as commander of the military forces is
held "under the direction and during the
pleasure of the President of the United
States" The President is Commander-in.
Chief of the Army and Navy by virtue of
the Constitution.
gSB John w. Clampitt, who, 1t will be
remembered, was associate counsel with
Mr.. Aiken in the defense of Mrs. Surratt
in the conspiracy trial, and who subse-
quently received clerkship in the Post
Office Department, and who was, during
and since the war, prominently identified
with the secession element in Washington,
has been appointed special agent of the
Postoffice Department for Utah, Montana,
&c.
gY- In the Surratt trial, if the Philadel-
phia Press is to be credited, every juryman
that was Southern born was in favor of &C.
quittal. Of the four jurymen who stood
out for conviction, one was born in Massa-
chusetts, one in Pennsylvania, one in Ger
many and one in Scotland. If the prisoner
is tried again it will probably be after the
meeting of Congress, fact that may have
an important bearing on the result IL
will be remembered that bill was passed
at the late short session abolishing all dis
tinctions as to color i'll the selection of jul
rymen. This bill the President defeated
by neither signing nor returning it. Of
course Congress will re-pass it, and the eff
feet must be to secure fairer men than
could be got at the last trial.
GY The President sent General Grant
an order directing the removal of General
Sheridan, and the assignment of General
Thomas TO his command General Han
cock is to replace Thomas, and Sheridan
is to be sent to Missouri General Grant,
on receiving, the order, went directly to
the White House and earnestly urged the
Withholding of the order. The President
emphatically refused. 1t is understood
that Grant then suggested some modifica-
tions. Whether these were allowed is not
known, but, as far as the removal of Sher-
idan is concerned, the President gave
Grant to understand that the order was
final. Subsequently correspondence pass
ed between General Grant and Mr.. John
son, which was, on General Grants part, q
protest against the contemplated removal.

able mode of passing away the tedious
hours between the point of departure and
your destination; you may tell of beauti-

amuse yourself watching the trees whisk
past, or the hills, forgetting their dignity
and losing their stability, rush along in
shameful confusion, but get o newspaper
filled with well displayed advertisements

mind lazily follow the eyes through the
columns of important announcements and

as you could wish.

perfect health, that Gastric's compound
