RECONSTRUCTION.

Hon. Benz. F. Flanders Appointed
Governor of Louisiana-Further
Efforts for the Removal of Gener-
al Sheridan-Governor Orr's
Speech at Anderson, S. C.-Judge
Kelley's Statement Relative to the
Mobile Riot, DC.
NE' ORLEANS, June 7.--General Sheri-
dan has issued an order appointing BENZ.
+. Flanders, Governor of Louisiana, Cice
Thomas J. Durant declined.
Hon. b. +. Flanders, now appointed
Governor, called upon Governor Welles
this morning at the Executive office, and
made known that he came in obedience TO
the order of Gen. Sheridan, and was ready
to enter on his duties. Governor Wells de-
clined to voluntarily vacate the Office, and
protested In writing against the action of
the military. At l O'clock an order was
received at the Governors Office, addressed
to Flanders, but he was absent, so the ma
ture of the communication is not known.
NEW YORK, June THE New York
Times Washington special says: 1.-THE
ed reprimand to General Sheridan is en-
tirely unfounded in fact"
The New York Tribune's special says:
"Since the removal of Governor Wells, re-
newed efforts are making for the displace
ment of General Sheridan. If General
Sheridan is removed, it is expected there
will be July session of Congress
AUGUSTA, Ga, June 9.-Governor Orr
addressed the citizens of Anderson Dis
trict, South Carolina to-day. After re-
viz -iv,or ~
the close OF the war for the reconstruction
Of the Southern States, he earnestly insist
ed on the acceptance of the plan of recon
struction proposed, as the only means of
preventing the affairs of the country from
passing into the hands of the ignorant, and
consequently the barbarian and tyrant
classes, and the only hope of making this
country even tolerable. He showed me
derance of colored over white voters In the
State, and the utter inability of the whites
to defeata convention or protect themselves,
whenever an issue is made with the color
ed people. There are 10000 colored vo-
tiers in the State and only 10000 whites
Ii Is true that perhaps there are not now as
many colored men as in 1860, but he is sure
the proportionate decrease has been great
er with the whites than the blacks since the
commencement of the late war Governor
Orr insisted upon the cultivation of the
most cordial relations between the races,
and the formation of no alliances with the
great political parties of the nation.
NEW YORK, June Judge Kelley was
received by his political friends in Phila-
delphia last night. In his address he re-
ferrsd to the Mobile affair, saying the riots
were not chargeable as much to the citi-
zcns or disloyal authorities Of that place,
as they were to the fact that Andrew John
son had appointed to the post of profit
there a recreant Noftherner, who provoked
the disturbance by inflamatory statements
in the public journals days before he arri-
we'd. The riots, he says, were premedita-
ted, and were not brought or by words of
his own.

WHITE PINE COMPOUND

try, after having been proved by the test Of eleven
years, in the New England States. where merits
have become as well known as the tree from which,
in part it derives its virtues
The White Compound Cures
Sore Throat, Colds. Coughs, Diptheria, Bron-
chitis, Splitting Of Blood, and Pulmonary
Affections generally. 1t is a remarkable
Remedy for Kidney Complaints, Dia
betes, Difficulty Of Voiding Urine,
Bleeding from the Kidneys and
Bladder, and Gravel.

NEW ORLEANS.
Sheridan's Letter to Gen. Grant on
the Late Removals.


New ORLEANS, June 5.--Gen. Sheridan
having been asked for his reasons for his
late removals, has this day forwarded the
following:
To General Z. s. Grant, Command
ing Armics Of the United States,
Washington, d. G.
GESERAL-On the Goth of April last, |
removed from office Judge Z. Abel, of the
Criminal Court of New Orleans, Andrew
]. Heron, Attorney General of the State of
Louisiana, and John F. Monroe, Mayor OF
the city of New Orleans These removals
were made under the power granted me in
what is usually termed the military bill,
passed March 27th, 1861, by the Congress
Of the United States. / did not deem it
necessary after the investigation made by
the Military Board, on the massacre of Ju-
ly Both, 1866, and the report OF the Con-
gressional Committee Oh the same massa-
Gre, but as some inquiry has been made for
the cause of the removal, l would respect
fully state as follows: The court over
which Judge Abel presides is the only
criminal court in New Orleans and a pc
Rod of at least nine months previous to Ju-
ly 30th he had been educating large por
ton of the community to the preparation
of this outrage, by almost promising no
prosecution in his court against the Offend
ers, in case such an event occurred. The
records of this court will show that he full
filled his promise, as not one of the guilty
ones has been prosecuted.
In reference to Andrew J. Heron, At
tOrney General of the State of Louisiana,
considered it his duty TO indict these men
before this criminal court. This he failed
to do, but welt so far as to attempt TO I'M
pose on the good sense of the whole nation
by indicting the victims of the riot instead
of the rioters; in other words making the
innocent guilty and the guilty innocent
He was, therefore, an abettor of and coad-
jutor with Judge Abel in bringing on the
massacre of July Both. Mayor Monroe
controlled the element engaged in this riot,
and when backed By an Attorney General
who would not prosecute the guilty, and a
Judge who advised the grand jury to find
the innocent guilty and let the murderers
go free, he felt secure in engaging his po-
lice force in this massacre. With these
three men exercising large influence on
the worst elements of this city; giving to
these clements an immunity for riot and
bloodshed, the General-in- Chief will see
how insecure felt in letting them occupy
their positions; the troubles which might
occur in registration and voting in the re-
organization.
am, General,
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
p. III. SHERIDAN,
Maj. Gen. L. S. a.
General Sheridan also telegraphed to
General Grant:
sThe registry returns from most of the
parishes of the State have been received,
also the reports of the officers which SUI
pervised them, and can report to you the
greatest success. and that the best Of feel
ing is existing among the people"

As tbe young moon dipt and liftei
Her reflected bowl
Lived and disd dream OF beauty,

Something made the milk white blossoms
Eyen whittier grow;
Something gave tho dying Sunset
An iDtenser glow:
And enriched the cup OF raptnre,
Filled TO overflow.
Hope rms frail, and Passion heeting-

Visions born of golden sunsets,
With the sunsets go;
To have loved Is to have suffered,

None shall ever know
When n human heart was broken,
