Gen. SHERMAN proposes some very
radical changes in the equipment of
the regular troops. He is in favor of
doing away with the bayonet, the
sergeant's sword, the cartridge box,
the belt plates and knapsack, and
substitute in their stead a good re-
~volver, a leather pouch for cartridg-
es, a knife, a rubber blanket and a
provision sack. He says that the
blanket will contain all the clothing
necessary for a long march, and
should be worn GRO the body from
shoulder to waist.

The last Republican Legislature
was in session till the middle of May,
and the three most notable acts &C
complished in all that time were the
passage of the Registration Law, the
election of Stanley Matthews to the
q. S. Senate-and the imposition of
a special tax ON dogs. On neither of
these acts do the Republican politi-
clans now delight to dwell with spe-
cial fervor.

The sniveling Of Bro. Williams
over the removal of a few Republi-
can office-holders to give place to
Democrats, is really distressing.
Some of his admiring Republican

to him. In his present state of mind
he is an object of pity, and if some
thing is not done for his relief we are
afraid he willcome under our charge.

Ex-Governor TILDEN, in q CONVEX
satioa with a prominent political
friend on the recent Florida dvelop-
ments, said that he had no part what
ever, directly or indirectly, in pro-
curing the confession of the Florida
ballot thieves. He said that he had
neither advised in favor or against
the passage of the ELECTORAL commits
sion act; that he submitted to it as
the law and felt bound to obey the
judgment of the lawful tribunal that
decided against him and that he
could not disturb the peace of the
country by individually, or through
others acting at his direction, bring
ing exposures of wellknown frauds
to the surface. He spoke with great
caution about what might be his du-
Ity in case the frauds should be clear

nal, and reach to the presidential I'll

Francis c. Barlow, a brave officer
in III civil war, late attorney gener-
al Of the State of New York, and a
straight out Republican, makes a
very strong point against Mr.. Hayes
in connection with the Florida frauds.

Hayes was bound to inform himself
of the facts of the Florida case which
were easily accessible; that as q law
yer Mr.. Hayes was bound to know
that the electoral vote belonged to
Mr.. Tilden; and that though the of
fee was given to him under the
