A dispatch from philadelphia gives the
following report of remarks made by Gen.
sheridan in the cars between Washington
and Baltimore. On the, cars, coming from
Baltimore. Gen. Sheridan spoke as follows
upon the vital subject OF the hour
"The Reconstruction acts of Congress are
the only measures calculated TO benefit the
people Of the Southern States. All my acts
while in command of the Department OF
Mississippi and Louisiana were not only fully
Endorsed by Gen. Grant, but in reality might
be considered the execution of Gen. Grant s
own orders. IL the first letter written by
Gen. Grant to President johnson regarding
my removal was to be made public, the peo-
Pile of the North would be astonlshed at it's
Radical tone; and when it is published the
people will find that he Grant is Radical TO
the core.
GAS far as Radicalism is concerned, Gen.
Grant is more so than | am and in seve.
raj instances | have written to him asking
him to modify the instructions sent me, as
being too extreme to suit the occasion for
which they were intended
The General spoke freely and unreserved.
ly during the passage of the cars from Wash
ington TO Baltimore, on the prominent topics
of the day. and his views respecting recon
struction are of the most Radical stamp
When near this city Sheridan remarked:
eff the rebels get into power through the
policy of Andrew Johnson then lbe rebellion
becomes honorable, and loyalty and Union,
ism dishonorahle: and, after having sacri.
iced so many lives in the suppression of the
rebellion, am IL, faror Of depririnq them o,

HOWE AFTER BUSINESS HorRs-The road
along which the man of business travels in
the pursuit of competence or wealth is not a
macadamized one, nor does it ordinarily lend
through pleasant scenes and by well springs
of delight. On the contrary. it is rough
and rugged path, beset with '.wait bit =
thorns. and full Of PITFALLS, which can only
be avoided by the watchful care Of circum-
spection. After every days journey over
this worse than rough turnpike road, the
wayfarer needs something more than rest:
he requires solaee, and he deserves it. He
IS weary of the dull prose of life, aud ath,rst
Tor the poetry. Happy is the business man
who can find that soace and poetry at home.
Warm greetings from lovins hearts, fond
chances from bright eyes, and welcome shouts
from children, the many thousand little ar.
engagements for comfort and enjoyment that
silently tell OF thoughtful and expectant 'ove,
the gentle illustrations that disencumber us
into al old and easy seat before we are
awsre Of it. These and like tokens Of affec>
ton and sympathy constitute the poetry
which reconciles us to the prose of life.

A WRITER in the Muscatine Journal res
plies to Judge Mason's Address" Com
corning Masons statement Of our. debt, he
says:
You start out with speaking Of "the mag.
nitude of our national debt" In discussing
this branch of the subject you pile on the
agony hugely. The gods piiing Pelion on
0ssa was q mere potato on q gopher hill to
the way you pile up our different debts one
upon another. You are speaking. mark you.
of "the magnitude of our national debt. :.
You are irving to show that it IS at least
three times as great in proportion to our
means of payment as that of any other ma.
ton on the face Of the earth.' You knew
this was absolutely untrue. You knew, or
at any rate you ought to have known, that
the statement was entirely untrue, as COM
pared, in proportion to means of payment,
with the debt of Italy, or Spain, or Turkey,
or France, or Great Britain. You do notpre-
tend to compare it with the debt of any coun
try except that Of Great Britain, and, TO make
out your case, you add the trifling sum of $500,
Oo0, 900 to the recognized debt of the nation.
under he head of what you please to call
..other claims Judge Masonl you added
that $500, 900, 600 to the national debt, know
ing that it did not belong there. You did ii
TO impose upon the people. You did it in an
endeavor to obtain their vote under false pre-
lenses.
Moreover, you say. still speaking upon
"the magnitude Of our national debit tina,
'.every state has Debt Of its own Ion
then add this little item, which you place at
$500, 600 900, TO our national debt. OF
course you knew it did not belong there al
all Ton count also the s'bonded debts of
our cities and Complies, but fail to give the
tex payers the figures of this item. You add
these, which have as much to do with our ma
tional debt as last winters snow, for the pur
pose of shosing that our national debt is IS
great as that OF England. Not content with
frauduleatly putting your figures too high by
$500, 600 900, you add this indefinite sum
about cities and counties. What shall We
think Of the candidate for Governor of the
honest people of Iowa, who thus misrepre-
sent facts2

A Hint for Howe.

The Chicago Tribune of the I'd inst. has
the following polite allusion to the New
England senator from this State:
The fact seems to have dawned upon
senator Howe, OF Wisconsin, that the bur-
den of the proposed tariff bill is to be borne
chiefly by the agricultural sections of the
country-by those who must sell their sur
plus products to foreign nations, and who
cannot advance their prices to keep pace
with the prices Of the articles forced up by
the tariff The foreign market for bread
stufs and provisions regulates the home
market, and always will. The price paid
for the surplus fixes the price paid fer the
whole crop.
We suppose it was with this view that
Mr.. Howe proposed to increase the tariff on
wheat No farmer will be gulled by such a
vapid pretence Of protecting him. lie will
of course ask what is the use of putting an
important duty on an article of which we
are exporting some millions of dollars worth
annually. We warn western senator's, in
Guiding senators Howe and Yates, that they
cannot safely vote to tie such milestone
around the necks of the farmers of Illinois
and Wisconsin, as this tariff bill will prove,
if it becomes law We say this in spirit
of friendship for those senators. But the
facts will prove the truth of what we say.
