Change OF Men-Nos Principles.

n Change OF Mon--Noe Principles.
~ The New Orleans Journals, COM
Jmenting on the recent military re-
movals, express views in concurrence
with our own, that the exchange of
officers is not n change of system,
and that the only practical effect is
to substitute the discretion Of one
{, officer for that Of another, The Pre-
dents order, assigning Gen. Han
cock to the command, of the Fifth
Military District, directs him. "when
necessary to faithful execution of
the law, to, exercise any and all pow
ers conferred by Acts Of Congress
upon District Commanders, and any
and all authority pertaining to Of
ficers in command of military depart
ments." No other directions are
necessary. Gen. Hancock is not
required to annul or to continue the
civil appointments of Gen. Sheridan.
but is sent to the command of the
Fifth Military District just as Gen.
Sheridan himself was, to deal with
the subject under the circumstances
and according to the responsibilities
which are placed on him. The New
Orleans Crescent expresses its doubts
OF the usefulness of reversing the acts
of Sheridan, and says:
"However desirable it might ha.
been that there should be no legisla-
tlon to authorize the overthrow of
civil governments, it is not now de-
slrable, after this has been done, to
undertake. to set up again the dislo-
Gated machinery, by placing deposed
off1cIals In their former positions. It
would be at least a patchwork and
spurious civil restoration, and would
tend to c. fuse and complicate the
situation. without any compromising
advantages. Military simplicity and
efficiency OF administration are better
than combination, of which the
civil element would have only enough
liberty to make itself detrimental to
the public service. Though our peo-
PIE would have preferred to see the
civil offices remain undisturbed, it is
doubtful whether thoy would now
vote for putting back all the removed
lncumbents, or, indeed, for making
any change in the actual situation,
between this time and the work of
rhe coming convention, unless such
change ShOu1d r,romiso m ofao1 ,
material difference, in the event of
reconstruction, from that which is now
anticipated"
The New Orleans Picayune speaks
to similar effect, SO that it appears,
instead Of the transfer of officers
having any of the political signifi-
eance which has been absurdly at
tached to it, the people have no
expectation even of q reversal of
.Sheridan's civil appointments.

SPARTANBURG AND UNION RAILROAD.
At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the above road, held at
Spartanburg last week, the following
officers were elected for the ensuing
year: President-Thomas B. Jeter.
Directors-S. Bobo, G.. W. H. Legg,
j. w. Miller, J. E. Bomar, j. 81.
Evins, T. N. Dawkins, B. Goudelock,
r. J. Gage, J. l.. Young, A. w.
Thomson, W. j. Aston and w. Fl.
Gilliard.
The Spartan states that an interest
ing discussion arose during the meet.
ing, on a proposition made by Rev.
.. w. Vandiver, proposing that he
and two other gentlemen would build
and finish q railroad from that place
to Asheville, N. c., by the year 1871,
and receive in payment one-half of
the whole stock of the Spartanburc
and Union Railroad, and should he
and his associates fail to fulfil the
contract, the stock should revert back
TO It's former owners. It was accepted
Dy the Convention so far as to express
their Willingness Individually to accept
the offer, this being all they had power
to 40. He is sanguine he can carry
out his proposal, if the consent of all
the stockholders can be obtained. If
the road from Spartanburg to Ashe-
yllle, n: O., some seventy miles, can
be built, the connection between
Charleston and Cincinnati, if we are
not mistaken, will be accomplished.

The New York Eoening Post, of
the 17th, says: A bale of new hops
was received in this city yesterday,
forwarded from Petersburg, Va.
This is the first consignment of the
kind ever made from q Southern
State, and is the result of late
experiment. A half acre was planted
with hops, and $50 pounds of the
popular material packed. It may
be added, that the quantity obtained
is fair and the quality excellent.
Lager beer is doubtless destined thus
to extend the range of its operations.

iae,s. E. n. .E. Candy.


This officer, who has been assigned,
by order of the President, to the
command of this District, was born
in Kentucky. and appointed to West
Point from Indiana. He graduated
in 1889, and served with credit in the
Mexican war. In 1860, he was O
Major of the 7th Infantry, and while
on duty in New Mexico, he conduct
ed o campaign against the Narvahoes,
with great success.
AT the beginning of the war, Gen.
eral Candy found himself Colonel of
the 10Th Infantry, and in command
of the Department of New Mexico.
He commanded the Union forces at
the battle Of Valverde, in which the
Confederate forces, under Sibley and
Green, gained decided success.
Finally, the Confederate forces, under
Slbley, returned to Texas, General
Candy claiming, in his official report,
that the latter (Sibley) had been
compelled to abandon q country he
had entered to conquer and occupy,
leaving behind him, in dead and
wounded, and in sick and prisoners,
one-half of his original force
Soon after this, General Candy
was ordered to Washington, and was.
for time, Assistant Secretary of
War.
In April, 1864, after the battle of
Pleasant Grove, and the consequent
retreat, which marked the failure of
the Red River expedition, General
Banks was ordered to bring his CAM
paign to an end without delay. Alex
andria was evacuated, and on MAY
20, 1864, General Candy having ap-
peared as commander Of the Trans
Mississippi Department, the army
was turned over to him by General
Banks.
During the summer and fall of
1864, General Candy remained in
New Orleans, but upon the overthrow
of General Hood, at Nashville, he
proceeded to attempt the reduction
of Mobile, then held by Gen. Maury.
This movement resulted in the eva
cuation of Mobile, which took place
in April, 1865. On May 4, the sur
render to General Candy of General
Dick Taylor's forces was effected at
Citronelle, and this, to the best of
our knowledge, closed General Can
bys active career in the late war.
OF General Candy We know nothing
personally, but he is spoken of in
high terms by the New Orleans cor
respondents Of various journals. One
of them, referring to General Sheri-
dan, says:
with these facts staring him in
the face, and the knowledge that his
immediate predecessor (Gen. Canby)
was high-toned gentleman and gal
liant officer, who had won the respect
and confidence of this people by
attempting to honestly and faithfully
discharge his duties rs an officer of
the Government and not the repre-
sentative Of a party, it is surprising
that Sheridan did not attempt to
remove some of tho odium that at.
tached to his name by following the
commendable and praiseworthy ex-
ample of Gen. Canby."
Gen. Candy is said to be O fine
executive officer, and thorough
military man. In his opinions, he is
said to be moderate Republican,
who takes no prominent part in poll
tics, and cares but little to have any
thing to do with political affairs.
