ASHLEY.

The President gives, as his reas-
ons for removing Governor Ashley,
of Montana, that, IN the first place,
he was not fully satisfied Of his fit
ness, but allowed himself to be over
ruled by the almost unanimous re-
commendation of the Republicans in
Congress, which Ashley brought
Next after his nomination, his atten-
ton was called to the Dyer Case
letters, upon which he believed the
Senate would reject the nomination.
After confirmation, Ashley made a
speech, in which he expressed the
,plnion that the repubicans should
not desers the administration because
OF the many injud,cions appointments
II must be conceded it had made,
which, the President thought, came
with very bad grace from Ashley.
Aud, lastly comes the report of The
speech In Montana, where be declared
hat he was prepared aud quite will
ling to represent the views Of ma
iority in the Territory upon the
negro questions. Such a bid for the
favor of the Democracy the Presi-
dent thought a very pnpromising
sign - Chi ago Post.
Per contra, Washington cores.
pondent OF the springfield Republican
has the following to say in favor OF
the "Ambrosial Ashley"
Gov. Ashley thus far has done
better than any governor we have
had since Edgerton, and the intense
prejudice against him is fast wearing
away. lie has already visited near
ly every part of the territory and
selected a location for colony that
is coming from his old Toledo district
in the spring. in the Bitter Root val
ley. The eastern papers are making
a desperate attempt to show that our
governor has, like his predecessors,
lowered his banner Of Radicalism
and gone over to the Democrats.
There is no shadow of truth in any
such charges. The Governor is fully
as radica still as the Republicans
and Union men of this section.
Heretofore there has been no con.
cert of action among those who have
held the federal offices in Montana.
Instead of organizing and building
up the Union party, they have been
engaged in personal contests with
one another, and left the field to tho
undisputed occupancy of the Mis-
souuri Democracy. By judicious
management and by the aid OF the
new immigration, this territory could
soon be redeemed politically.
