s.THE NEGRO"-A WORD as TO HIS
MERITS.

To the Editors of the Union and Dispatch.
1 have read "the most extraordinary
production since the hood.1 The pamph-
let is too absurd for criticism, and too
shocking TO the moral sense to require criti-
cism; but, as some who have read it may
form very injurious notion of "the opin-
ion Of the learned of present and past
ages" beg to descry it to be that 10 use
his own GRAMMAR the present race of ne
groes are the descendants Of Ham, and
were made 30 By his name or the curse of
his father. He means that his opinion of
the learned is, that his own name or the
curse of his father caused the children Of
Ham to have the black skin, kinky hair,
etc, which are such marked but not orna-
mental peculiarities of that race of bipeds.
Patrick's Commentary gives no hint of such
an opinion in his day, 1884. ] find no
trace of it in Smiths Bible Dictionary,
which is the best authority for the present
standard Of opinion in the learned world.
In that work the fulfillment of the curse is
asserted to be found in the fact that Gin
every case the more energetic sons of Shem
and Japheth have at last fallen upon The
rich Hamistic territories and despoiled
ftASAAAF -AAcLtCAa MINT ~ FtuE 5dlAE WIN
says: "The subsequent history of Canaan
shows in the strongest manner possible the
Julflinient of the curse. When Israel took
possession Of his land, he became the slave
of Shem. When Tyre fell before the sires
of Alexander, and Carthage suecumbed to
her Norman conquerors, he became the
slave of Japheth." Although he says
good deal about the Philippians, the de-
scendants of Cush, not word is said about
black skin and kinky hair as the effect,
or as an effect of the curse. This theory
is, / believe, peculiar to the Armageddon
school. Some suppose the climate BACKED
the skin of the negro, and kinked his hair,
and did all the rest of the mischief Some
doubt and some deny the unity of the hu-
man race. Only those Of the Armageddon
school claim to know all about it.
The origin of the negro is in the dark.
Himself is black. He has been black
wave of calamity sweeping over the South
He is the blacklist sort of black portent
now in our sky. aels
1t is as hard, perhaps, to account for the
peculiariiies of some othtr races. The ar
gument from his intellectual and moral
susceptibilities to prove that he is man, is
just the same as that by which it is proven
that we are men.
The negro is not equal to the white man,
nor without the aid Of a superior race can
he emerge or remain out of a state of bar
barism. 1t is the more incumbent on MS to
help him on the road to civilization.
My sympathies we're with the South in
the war. The beliefs which led to those
sympathies have not changed. But we are
bound TO make the best we can of the re-
subtitle best for humanity, for ourselves
and for the negro. X

words, addressed to a Radical politician

Radical clique is backing Sheridan for me

can prevent his nomination, which Grant
will openly indorse. They claim that the
Radical party will split upon Grant, the

SHERIDAN AND ROUSSEAU.
The Sudden DeParture''-A sharp
Card from Gen. Rousseau.

Card from Gen. Rousseau.
From the New York Tribune.
SIR: Your special Washington CORES
pondent Of yesterday telegraphs:
at is said, on good authority, that Sher-
idan had made out an order for the arrest
and trial before a military commission of
Gems. Steedman and Rousseau, for impe~
ding reconstruction. The law gives him
that power. Rousseau and Steedman sud
denly left New Orleans, and the arrest was
thuz prevented"
That Gen. Sheridan made out an order
for the arrest for Gen. Steedman and my
self may be true, but / neither know nor
do | believe it to be true. The insinuation
in the above paragraph that Gems. Steed-
man and Rousseau suddenly left New Or
leans to avoid arrest" is simply mali
cious, if not malignant, invention, and
its author is either very credulous and
simple, or else a very artful or reckless
fabricator. As your correspondent shields
himself behind the words sit is said, on
good authority" he is supposed to be no
further responsible in the premises than
any other journalist in his particular de-
partment But as perhapsi ii viii moi do to
let the statement 20 uncontradicted, am
rather forced into the annoyance of this
reply.
Let me tell you, Mr.. Editor, that Gen.
Sheridan knew perfectly we'll, and from my
own lips, the day and the hour Of the day
of my departure from New Orleans, and so
had full opportunity to enforce an arrest, if,
indeed, he designed one.
Perhaps il is we'll enough to add, as a
fact within my knowledge, that General
Steedman, who was to have left New Or
leans with me, was detained in that city
for several days after my departure by the
serious illness of nephew. ! have not
heard that any effort was made to arrest
him.
1t is not the habit Of either Gen. Steed-
man or myself to depart suddenly"
Yours, very respectfully,

UNIVERSAL AMNEsTY.-Th New York
Herald, in urging the President to pro-
claim universal amnesty" says:
Besides the reconstruction of his Cabi-
net Mr.. johnson is master of the best
method for the reconstruction of the South,
and by a single stroke of his pen may, by
virtue of the power which the constitution
gives him, proclaim universal amnesty
amnesty for the white who was foolish
enough to run into rebellion with the idea
that he alone was created to govern the
country; amnesty for the poor negro,
whose intellect is completely unsettled by
our political quarrel over him; amnesty
for the North, which is heartily sick of
paying the bills for these Ethiopian theat-
ricals; amnesty for our commerce, our ag-
ricultural interests, our progress as a peO-
pie; above all things, amnesty for the
brains of our statesmen. Let US, therefore,
have new Cabinet and general am
nesty."

NEW YORK DISPATCHES.

The President and His Cabsnet-Gen.
Grant win Probably ask 10 be Re
IieVed.
I New YORK, August ya7.-The Times
special says il is well known that for some
time past the President has virtually been
10 possession of the designations of his
Cabinet officers which had been offered
verbally, but recent events have induced
them to repeat the offer, and | am able to
state on the best authority that the Presi-
dent now has in his possession formal
written designations of every member of
the Cabinet in this connection. The fact
that Jerry Black, who has been absent from
the city for several days, has been tele-
graphed to advising him of the change in
the officers of the Cabinet and requesting
him to return Immediately, is significant,
The Herald's special says: In the case
of McCulloch, though probably his resig-
nation will be the last accepted, from the
am pretty certaiR he will be permitted to
withdraw after some time and better man
appointed in his stead. The idea prob
ably is, to familiarize the public mind to
the proposed change in the treasury man
agement by degrees, and moi make too sud-
den a change.
Among the rumors afoat is one that Sec
rotary McCulloch has accepted an offer
from Jay Cooke & Co., to manage the new
banking house they are about to open in
London. Ifthis be true, it would certainly
bear out the probability of McCulloch's
probable retirement.
By the Tribune special it is intimated
that Gen. Grant will ask TO be relieved
from duty at the war Office soon as is
indicated in his correspondence OF yester-
day. This is but the beginning of plan
to carry the next Presidential election by
the Democrats. A change in the Cabinet
will certainly take place. Stewards friends
say he will surely go. The old man has
been keeping very quiet lately, and has
little to say at the White House. Mr..
Randall expresses to his friends willing
ness to resign. He had long interview
with the President last night. Before he
went to the White House he told his
friends that on the interview would depend
whether or not he would resign. Should
it not have been satisfactory last night, |
Randall will send in his resignation o,day.
Ward H. LamOn, law partner of Jerry
Black, once appointed Marshal of the Dis
trict Of Columbia by President Lincoln, is
being pushed for the position by the De
mocracy represented by the Intelligeneer.
The pressure on McCulloch has been
considerably checked. The feeling is so
strong against his resignation that his OPP
ponents have begun to give him up as a
hopeless case.
Jerry Black is spoken of as Mr.. Stewards
successor.
The Times special says: The President
has ordered the Bureau of Rebel Archives,
of which Dr. Francis Leiber was chief, to
be closed. This bureau was organized by
Secretary Stanton, and contains all the
captured records Of the civil and military
administration of the defunct Confederacy.
1t has been of great service to the govern
ment in its various Investigations
