Gen. Sickles INDICATED.
Condensed from the Tribune.

The letter of the Governor of South
Carolina makes it altogether clear that
in removing Gen Sickles the President
committed two-fold blunder. 81 desire
to express TO you the great regret which
l feel personally and officially at the
course taken by the President and his
advisers in this NATTER" writes Govern
or Orr. Could there be more unex-
pected and significant condemnation on
the one hand, and vindcation on the 9th.
err? South Caronlina herself, bitter and
bloody in some of her by-gones, declares
that the over-zealous Southerner, Mr;
johnson, is wrong and that his General
is right She protests that Democrat
ic President is far out-done in sensible
and generous forebearance and kindness
toward the Southern people by servant
of that Congress, they are both supposed
to hate with equal heartiness. The Exc
cutive has endeavored to lead another
raid on the Union lines, but there are
few Rebels in heart who thing 1t worth
while to follow him.. Even State Of
nulli6ers repudiates a nullifying Presi
dent.
The surmises of the motives of Gen.
Sickles' removal are confirmed by Gov
Orr's cordial and willing testimony. "lr
nv opinion" he writes, "General Order
No. 10 received the approval of very
large majority of the citizens of South
Carolina y and furthermore he remarks
that if this order had not been issued
last Spring, considerable increase Of
troops would have been needed to pro
tect sheriffs in executing civil process al
the instance of ravenous creditors. The
paragraph of the order seized by the
President as the text for the Generals
dismissal, was the one of all others most
priced by the people of South Carolina.
1t was by no means an obnoxious pro-
vision; nor was it combatted by the
courts, which, as a whole yielded 10 the
evident charity and necessity the order,
We see that all the trouble arising out
of Order No. 10 was in consequence OF
whimsical and sudden interference on
the part of the Executive, for the order
had been nearly half year in existence
when he gave to the world the charac-
teristic explosion to the effect that it
was unconstitutional. A modicum OF
forebearance, of patriotism, or of pru.
dence, would have saved the poor blum
der of reversing good order and dis
missing a popular officer But it is
plain that the President was disposed to
have another tilt with Congress, another
outbreak of the periodic Constitutional
ism. Don Quixote and the windmill
were not more uneqnally matched than
the parties of such duel.

SOME two weeks ago seizure was

District in the city of N. Y, the ware
houses and premises of the Kentucky
Bour bon Com pany: This Com pany
owns a distillery in Louisville, Ky. and
ships whisky, in bond, to the Twenty

Proceedings have been commenced for
the forfeiture of all the spirits found in
the warehouse at No. 40 Vessey-st., g.
mounting to-aboat 1000 barrels. Near

The DUNKIRK, WARREN P1TTsBURe
RAILRoAD:-We notice that the contract
for the building of this road has beer
let tc I. B. Simpson & Co., and that
the board of directors have called a
meeting to be held in Warren on the l4th
inst, for the purpose of enlisting the
money influence of Warren in favor OF
the road. The sum of 100000 have
been subscribed on the route from War
rem to Dunkirk, and it is expected that
this amount will pay the expence Of
grading the whole route The interest
so far is in the hands of New York capi-
talists. IfWarren wants to be properly
benefited by the road, she must put
Pennsylvania capital into it and by this
means CONTROL to certain extent it's op-
erations. Railroads generally operate to
pay its management first-the coun-
try through which they pass, or where
they terminate, last; and if the War
rem people are not awake to their in
terest, they will find another party ready
to STEP in and carry the road to Irvine
ton, West, and some other point East of
them, its not being TERMINUS so much
as connection which is wanted. Coal and
oil are both embraced in the transparta-
tion schedule. DisD0tch.

The orators of both parties in the
South are loud in their asseverations of
purity and patriotism, each declaring
that its respective party is eminently
fitted to take care Of the negroes. We
suggest that that is not the business OF
either. The negroes must take care of
themselves. They are now placed in a
condition to gain their bread in the same
manner that white men do. Except in
individual cases of want and suffering
the negroes rs class have no more call
to be "taken care of" than the whites.
They have their liberty, and we have no
doubt that they had rather be given
fair chance to show that they desrerve
it than to have either political party as
snme authority over them. Ali the pro
tection'" they need is to be let clone
and given fair Dispatch.

GAR1BALDl has at last published the
long expected .address. to the Party OF
Action, announcing that the time for the
liberation of Rome has come. The King
in reply, has promulgated proclama-
tion which warns Italians against taking
any part in the movement, and threatens
with vigorous punishment all persons
found engaged i'll illegal hostilities a.
gainst the Papal authority. The move
ment is denounced as a crime against the
laws of Italy and of nations. As far as
we can learn from the brief dispatch the
royaI proclamation docs not say that
Italian troops will cross over into the
Papal territory to crush out an insurrec-
tioEary movement. On this point the
success of the failure of the new enter
prise will p: obably depend. If the Ital-
ian Government observes a strict neu-
trality, Garibaldi feels confident that,
with the aid of the insurgents in the
Papal States, he can successfully carry
out his plan. Should the government
however, march an army into the Papal
territory for the suppression of the move
ment, there is no chance for its present
snccess. 1t will be remembered that the
Italian Government owes by far the lar
ger portion of its territory to exactly the
same kind of movement which it now de-
nounces as a crime against Italy and the
law of nations. However strong the
reasons may be which induce the Govern
ment to keel alooffrom Garibaldi's move
ment the proclamation is an act of base
coWardicc.

APPATHY.-Fears have been entertained in
the Southern portions of the State, where the
campaign has hitherto been prosecuted with
much greater vigor than hereabouts, that the
g Reserve would, through sheer appathy, be
found wanting on the sth day of October.
Indeed, those representatives of Democracy,
Vallandigham, Pendleton, Thurman & Co,
have used the argument with their party, that
success was expected from appathy of the loyal
masses. We may thank them for the admoni-
ton, and regulate our conduct accordingly.
The tone of our contemporaries in other parts OF
the % Reserve" are encouraging and assuring,
and leave no alternative, that if Ashtabula
county is right, the Reserve will not fail to
meet the important issues of the present hour,
as manfully as they have met and decided those
of the past. The Reserve" can be relied up
on every time.

ORGANIzE.-Thefe can be Eo success in any
warfare without organization. If our Kepuph-
can friends In the country expect to defeat
their always wide awake enemy, they must
know that they can do it only by concerted &C.
ton. With the country in peril, with the dam
ger of revolution hanging over US, and with
unexceptionable candidates, both county and
State, to be voted for, what need should any
true Republican in this Republican stronghold
have for extra incentives to duty ? 1t is shame
to the Republicans Of this county that they
should have to be appealed to, at all, at such a
time. That there is real, genuine, sterling pa
triotism in them, we know; and never was there
such need of showing it as now Awake, then,
to the importance of the work to be accom-
plished.
Ashtabula weekly telegraph. [volume] (Ashtabula, Ohio) 1853-1873, 1867-09-28

STATED.-The n. Y, Times, vigorous
ly states the issues of the present can
v ass, thus:
'sThe Republicans plant themselves on
the doctrines of the war, and the corolla-
ries which follow from them. l. That
the Confedeate States were conquered,
and therefore the Reconstruction Acts OF
Congress are just and legitimate. 2. That
slavery being abolished the negro should
Justly be on the same ground of civil and
political rights as the white man. 8.
That the finances of the United States
should be conducted with the utmost
economy, but that every dollar of the
debt should be paid fully, without any
attempt to diminish its value, by paying
it with an extraordinary issue of curren-
cy. These principles are plain, and no
man can mistake them.
To these ideas the Democrats, under
the lead of Vallandigham, Pendleton and
Thurman oppose: 1st, That the Recon
struction Acts are "despotism'-putting
the nigger over the white man 'always
spelling negro with two 'g's." I'd, That
the negro may be free, but has no right
to vote, and is and ought to be kept in a
state of inferiority. Sd, That we didn't
agree to pay gold for debts, and there
fore should pay them in currency-the
result of which must be an immense de-
probation of currency. These are the
exact points made in the speeches of Val
landigham and Pendleton. The issues
reduced to the fewest words, arc
"Whether the war was right?" Wheth-
er the negro is man p "And whether
we ought to pay our honest debts ?"-
This is the marrow of the whole Demo
cratic doctrine.

TRI KS OF THE ADvERsARY.-The Democratic
papers think they discover vulnerable point
in the Union ticket, and are using their wits to
assail the ticket and fritter its support by di-
recting their shafts at this point. The assertion
is put forth, that the executive committee have
issued circular advising the. abandonment of
the amendment as hopeless. Not only has no
such circular been issued, but the committee
assert their belief that the amendment will be
sustained, and that it will have an even run with
the ticket. Though some squeamish republ-
cans may refuse to vote it, there are Democrats
enough who recognize the justice of the thing
and will vote it, to counterbalance that loss.
