WASHINGTON, June 9.-Commentil on
the proceedings OF the Ohio Republican
convention the Washington Sentinel, the
organ of the brewers, says: Nevertheless
the Republican convention has fully en-
dorsed everything the last legislature has
done. The Republican leaders continue
their criminal policy against personal lib
erty- No defeat can bring them back from
their crusade against liberty. They
trampIe upon their German allies, and
boldly proclaim to them, we will win with
outyou, and if we cannot win we will rather
be beaten as We have in the last two cleo
tions before we will yield to you. Judge
Foraker is temperance fanatic, and so
are the other officers including the two
candidates for judges-the present in
cumbents. Sarcastically they have
nominated at the last end
German, Leo Weltz, for the board CT
public works. Probably they think
TO catch German-Americans in support of
their fanatical ticket aud platform. The
election of Foraker would also be vindi-
cation of Gov. Foster, whose candidate he
is. The position of the Republican party
of Ohio is clear and in favor Of force laws.
Not SO much the tax question, but the
prohibitory and tyrannical feature in the
Scott law create that general dissatisfac-
ton with it in all liberal circles. That
Republican legislature with such a plat
form and such candidates wi remove any
Of those bad features will hardly be sup
posed by any sane man who has watched
the course of the Republican majority of
the last legislature.
Under such circumstances, and if, as we
surely hope, the Ohio Democrats will act
in harmony with the old principles of
their party and nominate a good ticket
on an outspoken platform, every friend
of personal liberty in the Buckeye state
will shamelessly betray the cause if he
should vote the Republican ticket next
fall. To save yourselves, your property
and liberty, you have to defeat the Repub-
lican party so fearfully next October that
it will never attempt to ensIave you
again"
PHIL. TO TAKE CHARGE.
Lieut.. Gen. Sheridan will come to this
city from Chicago next November and re-
lieve Gen. Sherman of the command of the
army. 1t is Gen. Sherman's desire that he
should be here some time before the ses-
sion of Congress begins, in order that he
may be by that time fully co1versant with
all details Of the Office. 1t is said that
Gen. Sheridan has purchased for S45,-
600 the residence of Judge Adds
on Rhode Island avenue near the Scott
statue. His family, it is thought, will &C.
cuPy The house some time before the ar
rival of the general. Gen. Sherman will
leave here On the 18th inst, accompanied
ay two of his aids, Colonies Tidbau and
Bacon, for Buffalo, N. Y, where they will
be joined by Chief Justice Waite and AS
sociate Justice Gray, and together they
Will make trip across the country along
the northern boundary, inspecting all the
military posts along the route. Gen.
Sherman will return here early in October
and will remain during that month and
November i'll order to make a final ar
rangement of his papers and to complete
his reports. He will then turn the office
over to Gen. Sheridan and return to his
old home in st. Louis.

NICKERs0N's DIVORCE SET ASIDE.
Adjutant General Drum to-day received
an official telegram from Philadelphia an
nouncing that the decree of divorce in the
case of Major A. H. Nickerson, United
States army, had been set aside and the
former verdict declared null and void.
Immediately upon its receipt the general
of the army direcaed General Drum
to issue pare., for the immediate
arrest OF aaAIor Nickerson preparatory
TO his being tried by court martial on
charges of conduct unbecoming to an off
Ger and a gentleman. The papers were is
sued this afternoon and the messenger was
dispatched at once to serve them upon
hin. 1t is thought, however, there will be
difficulty in finding him as it is the gen
eral impression that he has left for parts
unknown. For several days past his where
abouts have been mystery to his most in
innate acquaintance.
Efforts to find any trace of Major Nick
erson in Washington to-day were fruitless,
and the secretary of war instructed the
paymaster general to withhold his pay as
a retired army officer.
