THAT ORDER.

We present in another column, IN er-
tense, the order of General Sherman, a
synopsis of which was given in our tele-
graphic columns at the time it was
issued. 1t is an elaborate piece of non
sense, of as little practical use in assist
ing the people subject to the ravages of
Indian warfare as would be the reading
of the riot act to band of Sioux. 1t is
piece and parcel after the style of
McClellan's famous idea of exhausting
the resources of craftsmanship after
three and half years of war. The
Sheriff of Big Horn county will form his
posse at once. The miners earning SO
per day will buy horses, arm and equip
themselves Immediately, and be ready
to march four months thereafter, if the
commander of the military department,
cut off from all communication, should.
in his infinite sagacity and unerring
judgment, determine that an emergency
had arisen, when the United States gov
ernment could afford to accept them at
forty cents per day. But, in the mean
time, if your homes are destroyed, your
wives ravished, your children slain.

that the fendishness of the incarnate

MONTANA AS A MINERAL CoUNTRY.-David
II. Cochran, n geOlogist from the East, of
considerable reputation, who has been passing
some time in Montana, writes, June Goth as
follows.
The country is rich in the precious metals,
but the rocks so heaved and tossed about
that il is very difficult TO follow n vein, and
besides, the rocks beng fe 'Gspathic granite,
rapidly decompose and WASH down into
crevices and valleys and form rich but narrow
and deceptive veins of Infltration and rich
gulch diggings. These narrow veins of in
filtration gand broken veins are sources of
great yeXation and waste of money. There
are no well developed quartz lodes in the Ter
ritOry yet Sacramento Union.
There has any number of such gifted
gentlemen as the above been in every
mineral country on the continent.
When they confne their attention
to writing squibs on geology, it's all
right, and no harm done. When they
manage mining companies there is gene

REoRGANIzED.-The order of Cover
nor Smith reorganizing the Montana
Militia is issued. 1t was necessary.
There were evils TO correct, abuses to be
remedied and order had to be evoked
from realm of chaos, or the movement
rest under dead weight that was crush
ing out it's vitality and bringing it into
contempt. In doing this, it would have
been almost an impossibility to have
avoided. in the details, creating dissatis-
faction. and even doing injustice TO some
of the parties 10 whom the order applied.
To what extent this has reached we are
not aware; but To the general principles
involved in this reorganization we give
hearty endorsal, and believe they will
meet with approval in the army and out.
While making the command more eff
cient, it will reduce the expenditures
two desideratums to which, without
doubt, even those who have felt aggreIved
by the order, will submit gracefully for
the good of the cause.
