GOVERNOR SEYMOUR REFUSES TC
FURNISH TROOPS.
From the Sacramento Bee.

Such was the startling heading to the fol-
lowing Geographic announcement which ap-
peared in the California press July IL, 1901
New YORK. July S-General Sanford received
instructions this morning not to issue orders Tor
the departure of any of our city regiments Tor the
scene Of the rebel invas n.
A few days previous it was published here
that
The President has called for Is 600 one hundred
day militia from New York and Pennsylvania, TO
drive the rebels back and to hold the borders.
This shows what Seymour's position then
time Governor Seymour was throwing all
possible obstacles in the way OF General
Dix. who was then commanding in New
York. Some process had been issued, or
was about to be issued, as was SAID, for the
arrest of General Dix, and 1t was reported
that he had been instructed not to obey 1t,
whereupon the New York Express, always
disloyal, said:
As at present advised, it is believed that Gov
ernor Seymour will if necessary, after showing
the powerlessness of the civil courts. call on the
militia of the State TO aid in executing the proc
of the Court, if it should issue warrant tor
the arrest Of General Dix and its execution be
resisted.
And the result was that rather than have
any conflict there with Governor Seymour,
General Dix had to be withdrawn from New
York. The Bee OF July l3. 1864, comment
ing on this state of facts said:
Grant is contending with the legions ef treason
in front of the rebel Capital. While his work Is
being prosecuted, rebel raiders are rrowling about

the women and children and Lees lett wing or
