THE CASE OF COZ. SWEENEY.

The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Tribune writes under date of
the 4th inst as follows:
The proceedings of a court martial that
has lust finished trying Breyet Colonel
Thomas w. Sweeney, of Fenian fame, have
been published officially. Col. Sweeney
has been in command Of the post of Aus
gusta, Ga, and was tried on three charges.
The FIRST was for having a cyprian in his
barracks all night on two occasions. The
second was for an indecent exposure of his
person in the streets of Augusta, and the
third was for sending troops outside of his
command to interfere with the civil au>
thorities. The court found Sweeney not
guilty Of the two first charges, on some
technical points, but on the third charge he
was found guilty, and was sentenced to be
suspended from rank and pay for a period
of six months, to be confined within the
limits of his command for the same period,
and he reprimanded in a general order
Gen. Pope, in approving the sentence and
reviewing the proceedings, says; e..
| The accused committed grave military
offense in sending soldiers beyond his mill.
| tary jurisdiction TO execute his orders,
which ofiense, in this case was aggravated
by the fact that the accused was informed
| ding with civil affairs, with which he
properly had nothing to do. The court
| plso find the accused guilty of wrongfuliy
| appropriating the money and property OF
| a citizen TO his own use. An officer has no
right TO use the military power to assert or
maintain his rights as TO property, and
when he applies that power in appropri-
ating TO his own use that which does not
belong TO him, he should justly fear heavier
punishment than has been inflicted in this
case. The court improperly rejected the
first. second and fourth specifications to the
first charge This action indicates an IN
disposition on the part Of the court TO hold
the accused responsible for a violation Of
the rules of common decency. The char
acter Of a woman who would remain with
a man, not her husband, all night as al
legged in the first and second specifications
is not matter Of doubt, nor is the pur'
pose of her visit and the allegation thai
her name was unknown was sufficient
reason for it not being given. II Is hoped
that no person, except the officer who was
in company with the accused at the time o
the commission of the ohense alleged IL
the fourth specification, witnessed the in
decency charged. Nor was it necessary t.
state that others witnessed it. The aver
ment that the nuisance, as alleged, wa
committed in a public place in the streets
Of Augusta, Georgia, was sufficient, anc
the accused should have been required Il
plead IL the specification.

GEN. GRANT NOMINATED FOR THE
PRESIDENCY.

The Galena Ills.j Gozetts, of the It'll
inst, referring to the action Of the 10 Da-
viess County Republican Convention of the
9Th. raises the name Of General Ulyssus S.
Grant for President, subject to the decision
of the National Republican Convention.
The editor says:
We this dav place at the head of the col
nmps oC the Gazette the name of Ulysses s.
Grant. of Illinois, as a candidate for the
Office of President OF the United States, TO
no s,nported at the election to be held in
November. 1868. We do this IN full ac-
cordance with our own sense OF ats pro-
urietv, aud also for the more public reason
that the sturdy Republicans Of 10 Davies
eoantv. at their convention, held at bllza-
beth on the 9Th instant, gave such action
| their full Endorsement.
The state of the country, the perils Of the
times. and the character of the men pro-
posed for this high Office are such that no
| apology is demanded for this decided aG-
| ton. But little more than one year wlll
expire before the people will be called to
the election of President and wee Hresi-
dent The vital welfare Of the country de
mande that those offices be filled by single
hearted statesmen, pure patriots, unyieid-
inc friends Of the rights of the people indl-
viduallv. and Of the highest well being OF
the collective whole This general oondi-
ton is a necessity. Freedom of opinion
with all is the rule of action the Repubh-
can party must carry the next election n
union OF action is the essential OF success.
Time is required to perfect this harmony OF
free, intelligent action. Hence the Repnb-
lican citizens OF 10 Davies speak thus early,
that opportunity may be given for coTParl-
son of opinions with others; that error may
be corrected and doubts removed, if they
exist; that We may all unite in the accom-
phshment of our most momentous and nos
lie purpose, bound together by the wisdom
OF an enlightened Judgment, and moving IL

WASHINGTON, Oct 9.-The Democracy
are Joyful over their great victory. The
result in Pennsylvania was glad fldings,
but that of Ohio electrifies them The
Radicals are dumb at this popular uprising.
The splendid triumph Of the Ohio Democ-
racv astounds both friends and foes. In the
Departments, where there are six Radicals
to one Democrat, silence is the order of the
dav. A week ago they were loud-spoken
and impudently denouncing the President
and his Copperhead friends, but they are
now silent l1tfiG ftuHN 14st :
All Democrats have been respectfully
treated today, the first time in six years.
The President accepts the result as a
condemnation Of Congressional usurpation,
and announces his purpose of strengthen
ing the hands y tie people. This means
the roofing outof Radicals with Democratic
successors. 8
Among those who called 10 rejoice with
the President were Generals Sherman,
Ewing, ex-senator from New Jersey, and
many others Sherman was particularly
hearty in his congratulations. One Of the
| results certaiR to follow this is a recon-
stnIction Of the Cabinet which win meet
with the approval of the people.
There is a very strong pressure against
McCulloch especially.
