General Sherman-From the Crimea to the

General Sherman-From the Crimen to the
Caucasus.
General Sherman is about to leave Rome
and proceed to Naples. From this point he
will travel to the Crimea and extend his tour
thence to the Caucasus. So says our cable
telegram. The General will thus stand
at ''the fountain-head, whence Europe
spread" He will find plenty of matter
to moralze over, and for reflection, by the
way. In the Crinea he will again behold the
monuments of mighty war struggle; the
graves of heroes who were stricken down in
the death grip of battle while yet ''full of
lusty life, and also those silent mounds in
which ''rder and horse, friend and foe were in
one red burial blent." In the Caucasus he
will stand on the great Russian mountain line
which divides Europe and Asia-on the
boundary closing the isthmus which separates
the Black from the Caspian Sea- Here he
will see the location of the parent homes of
many of the great warrior races, both of the
Old World and the New, and may perhaps
ask himself what manner of primal man could
have dwelt in the region, who, from his SIM
ple wanderings to the plains, gave forth O
progeny so persistent, so warlke, so destruc-
tive, and yet so indestructible? Points Of
grand idea, particularly when they are toned
and softened by the Christian assuagemen'
which will flow to his mind from the consola
lions of visit to Rome, the centre from which
Christianity has struggled for the regeneration
of humanity from the consequences of it,

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD Snow BLOCKADE
The difficulties Of getting the trains through
70 snow this winter on the Union Pacific
Railroad show the necessity of other railroad
lines of Communication across the Continent
We must have the northern route, where the
snow does not lie so deep, and the southern
route, where there is no snow, but perpetual
spring or summer. There will be business
enough for all, and each will have some
special advantages.

licnn Party"
In making his obeisance to his brethren Of
the press on his return to active editorial
labors Colonel Forney, of the Philadelphia
Press, says:-
There are various theories as to the cause OF his
voluntary, glad retirement from the painful position
OF a placenian; but none are so true the recOg-
milton OF the fact that he comes back to his editorial
chair with an earnest purpose TO serve the public
and to cooperate IN the great work OF reform
within the lines or the republican party.
This is something like the declaration of
certain democrats during the war-to wit,
that they were ''willing to fight for the rights
of the South within the Union, but not out Of
it," The Southerners did not appreciate
the force of this sort Of quasi friendship, and
preferred an open and above-board fight for
complete separation. How the editor OF the
Press is to Cooperate in the great work of
reform within the lines of the republican
party" and appease tho angry elements now
disturbing its vitals, is a problem the solution
of which is not readily attainable. If Colonel
Forney intends to support or to oppose Grant
why does he not come out fiat-footed and say
SOP But perhaps the time for declaring war
or effecting treaty Of amity and peace has
not vet arrived.

General Sickles M Mediator-"Let Us
Have Peace.0

U
Have Peace."
General Sickles is at Albany on q special
mission of peace, love, good will and the
Governorship. He comes to our State capt.
tai fresh from the national capital and is
said by our correspondents to be armed with
authority to say to the squabbling fac
tons that the President desires them
to cease their unseemly brawls and
behave like decent men. It is limited that
he has also more personal object in
view, and that as he intends to retire from the
Spanish mission in August next he would
not object to taking possession of the figurative
Executive mansion at Albany on the LIST day
OF January succeeding. However this may
be, his acknowledged mission is a COM
mendable one. As he tersely remarks, when
he left for Madrid he left Senator Conkling
sulky and out in the cold, and when he comes
back from the city of the Hidalgos he dis
covers Senator Fenton in q similar uncomfort-
able position. He therefore tenders his we'll
known diplomatic skill to heal the difficulties,
and has set about to convince Senator Fenton
that General Grant Is not In terror of him as
a rival candidate for the Presidency, and next
to remind Senator Fenton's friends that all
men cannot hold Office at the same time and
that their hour for enjoying the loaves and
fishes may not be far distant. We fear that
even the persuasive Sickles will fail to bring
the factions at Albany in accord and to put a
stop to the scandalous proceedings of the ma
jority party. 1t is true that the operations
of reform Legislature, if the close of the
session should be such as the open
ing indicates, are calculated to seriously
damage the republican cause in the State of
New York; but the rings and the Hobbies are
all powerful at the State capital, and, as they
make their bargains for cash, it is not easy to
circumvent them with promises, even made
by one of the diplomatic corps and backed by
the President himself The quarrel of the
outs against the ms cannot be settled by soft
words. However, it is very well for General
Sickes to make the attempt, and if he should
not succeed he may at least be instrumental
in furnishing the republican party an availa.

BAMA FINANCIAL PROBLEM.-Lord Redesdale
is troubling his mind in the matter of the
future division of the Alabama claims
indemnity money between the Northern and
Southern States of the United States when
England pays the American bill of damages.
His lordship has placed the subject before
the House of Lords in the shape of an arith-
metical problem-a puzzling form, indeed, for
his aristocratic brethren. The QuOd erat
demonstrandum of the question may be safely
entrusted to President Grant. Let Britain
forward the cash Grant will use it equitably.
Lord Redesdale is, perhaps, liable to become
confused in the matter Ofinternational accounts
and balances, inheriting, as he must, from his
father-Chancellor of Ireland at the period
of the union with England-an idea of the
terribly muddled manner in which the money
matters of the two countries were at the time
of the amalgamation of the public ledger.
GAMBETTA.- unhappy condition Of
France at the present time attracts universal
attention. A storm approaches which may
prove terribly disastrous to the nation. The
radical republican element in the South is
ready for work whenever the watchwOrd is
given. The government of M. Theirs is not
over strong, and, what is more, it knows its
own weakness. lis pretty clearly understood
now that Gambetta is the head of this dan
gerous element, which only awaits an oppor-
tune moment to launch the country again into
the dreadful struggles of civil war. The
apparent inactivity of the ex- Dictator of Tours
is regarded with suspicion. How suddenly
he rose from obscurity in the early days Of the
republic until he exercised the influence of a
dictatorship over France is already matter
of history If the chance again presents
itself there is little doubt but he will attempt a

PROGRESS OF THE REvoLUTIoN.-A
new light dawned upon the world with
the introduction of Plantation Bitters
twelve years ago. Drastic purgatlon
went out-restoration and renovation
came in. The eyes Of the people were
opened to the great fact that the way to
cure disease is to strengthen and sup
port its victims, not to place them at its
mercy, by depriving them OF the little
strength they have. 1t soon became
evident that as a means Of infuslng
vitality into the feeble system, regulat-
ing the secretions, curing indigestion,
and reforming a bilious habit of body,
no medicinal preparation then known
was atall comparable to the new resto-
rative. Since then hundreds Of attempts
have heen made to rival the Bitters
They have all failed, and the grand
revolution in medical treatment, which
was commenced in 1860, is still in pro,
gress Nothing can stop it, for it is
founded on the principle, now univers-
ally acknowledged, that physical vigor
is the most formidable antagonist OF all
human ailments, and experience has
shown that Plantation Bitters is peer
less invigorant, as well as the best pos
sible safeguard against epidemic
diseases.
