Why General StckIes was Removed.

The cause of General SICKLEs' removal
from the command of the Second Military
District is no longer matter for con ec-
ture. It is now definitely made known,
and, as was most generally apprehended,
relates to his exercise of the strong arm of
the military in obstructing the execution,
in this city, Of writs issued by the United
States Circuit Court OF this State in rela-
ton to causes adjudicated upon by that
body. We surrender large portion of
our space to-day to this matter, and else
where give complete history of the whole
subject.
This General Order No. 10 gave rise to
no little sensation in the States affected,
when first issued. AS may be naturally
supposed, the people viewed it as unconsti
tutional, in fact, as an act of usurpation,
Notwithstanding the high powers granted,
feeling it to be blow at the whole fabric
of our State government. The total disress
gard thus paid to code of laws, of which
any State might justly be proud, and the
substituting for our government modern
code of his own selection, and the
product, it may be, of his individ
ual brain, unaided and alone, was
an action on the part of General SICK
LES which the people of our State, although
open condemnation was futile, could but
esteem, to say the least of it, a high-handed
measure, even when emanating from a Mil
itary Dictator. But so far as that portion
of the order in relation to the staying of
executions is concerned, and which has
caused General SICKLEs' removal it was
most timely relief to the people. Though
they condemned the manner in which it
originated and was promulgated, failing
not to see that there was nc authority for
this course, except that asserted by the
power of might, still it was regarded by
the people of the Carolinas relief.
We are pleased at the stand taken by the
President in this removal, as vindication
of the fact that there is yet Constitution,
and that though it may be violated he has
not forgotten how to defend it. We trust
that he will go further still, and use the
utmost extent of his authority to do away
with all that which is unconstitutional in
ficted upon the people in this section, at
present known as the Second Military Dis

Oar Military Governments.

If anything was wanted to prove that the
purpose of the Radicals in the passage of
the unconstitutional Military bills was not
to reconstruct the Southern States, SO much
as to radicalize them, the fendish fury
with which they already assail Generals
HANCOCK and CANDY would be sufficient.
Th csc Generals have done nothing to JUS
tify this course. Their only offence has
been in being selected by the President to
supersede Generals SHERIDAN and SICKLEs,
and in having obeyed the orders of their
Commander-in-C Chief. There exists no evil
dence that these officers favored the re-
moval of the District Commanders, much
less that they sought the position. There
has been no effort on the part of any por-
ton of the people affected by the change
to control the appointments or suggest sue
cessors of the removed officers; and, so lar
as we know, in the case of General SICKLEs,
at least, has there been any effort to pro-
duce his removal. Yet the removal of
these two officers and the appointment of
their successors has been the fruitful
theme of party TRADES, not only against
the President, but against the unoffending
people of the two Military Districts and
the distinguished Generals who are to COM
mand them.
So far as we know there will be no
change in the rigors of military rule under
the new commanders, but we suppose,
| from the well-known character of Generals
CANDY and HANCOCK, as men and soldiers,
it is thought 10y the party leaders that they
cannot be used as mere party tools, but
will administer their delicate and important
trusts for the welfare of the whole
country. The progressed purpose of Con-
gress in the enactment of the Military
bills was to reconstruct the Southern
| States. It is feared that these officers
will not go behind the record and lend
themselves to the reol design of Con-
gress in their desire to radicalize the South.
Military rule is offensive to our people,
whether exercised by the just and impartial
officers who command in Virginia, and in
Mississippi and Arkansas, or by the party ty-
rants who have been converting the other
Southern States into political pandemoni-
ums for the purpose of securing favor with
| Presidential caucus managers and commit
tees The people of North Carolina have
been made to feel the weight of military
power more frequently and more unneces'
sarily than their neighbors in Virginia
high-toned and honorable officials have
been removed to give place to party favor.
ties, in many instances without capacity
and without character; our citizens have
been compelled to pay heavy fines or Ian
guish in dungeons for trivial offences; men
of character, social position and advanced
| age have been seized by force and dragged
to prison upon the most heinous charges
for which there was not the slightest foun
dation or proof, yet the orders of Genera
lS1cKIEs have been submitted to with the
same accomplishing spirit with which

The Future of the Government.

For two years the Radical party has
been endeavoring to reconstruct the coun-
try. And what has it accomplished P
The work which at first had for its avowed
object the restoration of harmony of rela-
tions, has, with scarcely an attempt at dis
guise, been merged into a partizan cam
paign and measures to insure party success.
If the Radical Republicans were at first
animated with desire for the good of the
country, which is matter capable of con-
siderable doubt, they have long since
thrown any such intention to the wind and
in their acts proclaim "party first and
country afterwards" And what is their
work of reconstruction about to be produc-
tive of Negro supremacy and rever-
sion of the order of things. bringing intel
lectual capacity into disrepute, and found.
ing the government upon Ignorance and
prejudice, soon to be followed, we fear,
either by anarchy or despotism.

saved from humiliations to which we have
been repeatedly subjected. Notwithstand-
ing this, both at Raleigh and Chapel Hill,
General SIoKLEs made public his official
experience as to how we have borne our
selves in the trying ordeal.
We know nothing of our new comman-
der beyond his military record during the
war, and the ability he displayed in the
management of the important department
committed to his charge. He has not
mixed with the politics of the country since
the war, but has contented himself in the
faithful administration of the military du-
ties with which he has been entrusted, and
until honored with the confidence of the
President was justly regarded as one OF
the foremost officers of the army. Dissat-
isfied that 4 soldier should supplant con-
venient politician, the ITiban4e says that
ss soldier without record goes to Charles
ton That this announcement is but the
frenzy of politician and not the utterance
Of O. candid and honest heart, the most
abundant evidences exist in the pages Of
GREELEY S AMERICAN CONFLICT, Il historical
work by the editor of the TibHne, where
the brilliant record of General CANBY's ser
vices and ability are clearly and, no doubt,
impartially portrayed.
Beyond doubt the war waged upon him
as well as General HANCOCK, is merely be-
cause it is supposed they will not use their
official positions to dragon the people of
these States into utilization with the Radi
cal party, but will administer their depart
ments with justice, equity and in conform
ance with true Interpretation of the acts
under which they receive their powers.
We hope the expectations of these politi-
clans will be realized, and in stating that
we believe they will be, is passing an opin
ion upon the merits of the new district
commanders, the full force of which may
not yet be wholly realized, but which, if
correct, will rebound to the welfare of tho
country and will not be the least priced leaf
in the wreaths which crown the brows of
these soldiers.

Great Celebration in Rome.

The New York Herald contains the fol-
lowing special cable dispatch:
ROME. June 29.-The religious cere-
monies in celebration of the eighteen hun
dreth anniversary Of ST. Peters martyr
fdom, and in reverence of ST. Paul and the
canonization Of twenty five Dutch, French,
and Spanish martyrs, who died in japan,
as saints, was one Of the most gorgeous
religious ceremonies witnessed in the world
since the days Of King Solomon. The OBJ
servances were commenced yesterday even
ing with general illumination of the city
Of Rome. ST. Peters shone like a great
church on fire.
At 7 O'clock this morning there was a
grand procession ofpYelates, priests, monks,
and soldiers from the Vatican to St. Peters.
His Holiness, the Pope, was carried on his
throne. There was an immense crowd as
sembled in the interior Of the church before
his arrival
St. Peters was most magnifcently deco
rated with cloths Of gold, silver tapestries,
paintings. and 100000 yards Of crimson
silk. The building was lighted with many
millions Of wax candles.
There were 100, 900 people inside its
walls, including the ex-King Of Naples,
the foreign ministry, 500 cardinals, arch
bishops and bishops, and many thousands
Of clergymen, priests, friars, and monks
There were even nuns and soldiers from
almost every country in the world present
and the assembled multitude made up a
most brilliant congregation.
Pope Plus the Ninth celebrated the
Gregorian Mass in Latin and Greek.
There were two Interruptions to the
ceremony. The curtains Of one of the win
dows Of the church caught fire at one mo-
ment, but they were speedily torn down
by the guard, and no damage occurred
After this, Il man who had become crazy
from excitement, produced by the pomp
and glitter and lights, cut his throat, and
died just under the bronze statue Of St.
Peter. The Pope at once proceeded to re-
consccrate the church stained with the blood
Of the suicide, and then proceeded with the
service Of the altar.

St. Peters made the angelical responses,
the cannon Of Castle San Angelo thunder
ing forth the Accomplishments instead ofthe
organs
The Pope's voice during the celebration
was clear and very sweet, and heard all
over the church.
It was most sublime scene when at the
elevation Of the Host the prelates, priests,
and mobiles, peasantry and soldiers, who
were spectators, knelt to earth to do reye-
renee to the Higher than the Highest, and
who had become for man Lowlier than the
Lowliest of all those present.
The city Nominations, fireworks. races,
and general festivities in honor of the cen
tenary anniversary: will continue during a

WITHOUT THE CHILDREN.

Oh, the weary, solemn silence
Of house without the children
Oh, the strange, oppressive stiffness
Where The children come no more
Oh. the longing of the sleepless
For the soft arms of the children
All, the longing for the faces
Peeping through the opening door
Faces gone for eyermore
Strange it is to wake at midnight
And not hear the children breathing
Nothing but the old clock ticking,
Ticking, ticking by the door.
Strange to see the little dresses
Hanging up there all the morning;
And the gaiters-ah their patter,
We will hear it nevermore
On our hearth forsaken floor /!
What is home without the children
IT'S the earth without its verdure,
And the sky without the sunshine
Life is withered to the core
So We'll leave this dreary desert,
And we'll follow the Good Shepherd
To the greener pastures vernal
Where the Lambs have '.gone before, y
With the Shepherd evermore
