I believe the sentiment of the general community is great regret at this unnecessary cruelty, and that the po lice could have made any arresU they saw fit wilhout sacrificing lives. P. II. Sheridan, Maj. Gen. Couim'g. If the reader will look at these des patches critically, he will find that the copy in the Times was, as we suspected at the time, forgery. The sentence iu Sheridan's despatch which conveyed its wb) meaning, iiich showed that the mayor and the police had ' hud attacked tne members of the convention aud a party of two hundred negroes," and in so ' atro cious'' a manner that it could only be re garded as '"murder," was omitted; and, to cover the omission and straighten the senteuccs, the word ''thus," in the next line, was erased. The motive ot this garbling is apparent. This despatch came when the people were in a fever of anxi ety about New Orleans. There had been a massacre. The reports were vague and conflicting. Gen. Sheridaa had hastily returned to the city, aud the pecple were craving to know what the General com manding thought of the affair, for they felt that he of all men would not lie. The Times, with its peculiar sources of information, with the exclusive White House facilities of which its correspond eut boss's, obtaiued ihe despatch, garbled it and printed it. The nation read it with c'L-finay. It saw the General commanding, the tried and trusted Sheridan, coldly taking sides with the rioters, and giving their crimes no harsher censure than ''un uecessary cruelty." We read that des patch with grief. We knew that General heridau was not of cur faith we did uot expect him to show any sympathy with the Radicals of New Orleans but we knew he was a soldier and a gentle mau, and we expected justice. We ex pressed our regret in a paragraph ; but, hnpins that future information would con vince the General of his error, and wish ing to trust him to the limit of couSdence. cancelled it. We now see that General Sheridan was ail this time denouncing the riot as a "murder" ''an absolute massa cre by the police, which was not excelled in. murderous cruelty by that of Fort Pil low;" and that miserable hirelings of a Copperhead press and a Copperhead Ad ministration weie tinkering, and altering, and suppressing his despatches, in order that it might appear that the President was right in sustaiuiug Monroe and his assassins, and that Geo, Sheridan agreed with him. This act of baseness is as disgraceful as the following bitter attack on the same brave officer recently printed by one of the rebel newspapers allies ol the 1 lines, published at Uuiou Springs, Alabama, which every Uuiou soldier and Northern voter should read to learn rebel scnti tucLt : General Phil Sheridan grew, during during the war, to be quite notorious His blood is Irish, end, being an Irish man, he was full of fight. He commut ed Irishmen. They would fight. Hence, in an army of Yankee blue bellies, who were most splendidly drilled in retrograde tactics, aud against a niau whose taste for peach brandy was stronger than his sense of duty, this little five feet eight of reso lute Fiuneganism made some rcputatiou. We rather liked tLo little fellow on ac- cc'jut of his pluck, an 1 were glad to see him promoted, eveD in an army of era-1 ing in the past he'd many views at vari vens and thieves. He studied hura at unco with those of perhaps the Jurget West Point : he behaved well in Wash-1 ington Territory, and it pleased us to see him escape the paternal pick and shovel which bad contributed largely to the in ternal improvements of Ohio. Why, then, has Le spoiled all by his foolish show of authority ? Whv has he proved to the World that he is ouly a vul-: earnestly protest, aud shall constantly de gar ditcher at hcatt after all, tad that his ! tuaod the restitution cf cur rights, the higu rank is not the reward of merit, but j henceforth fo acknowledge these Yankee j j chin was a natural-born imp of perdition; Thou; as has displayed a remarkable apti- tude for giving white people's churches to his black betters ; Sherman found the torch a more congeuial weapon to his un- ' knightly nature than the sword ; Grant tried to be a politician, and failed as sig najly as ichen he uttewptid to defeat Lee fairlg ; and now one of the small fry, a short to. iUd, slimg tadpole oJ the latter spawn, the blathering disgrace of an hon- st father, an ei crlistlng libel upon his Irish blood, the scorn of brace men and the synonym oj infamy, Major General Phil II.

CONVENTION OF CONVICTS. At a large and enthusiastic Convection of the gentlemen at present sojourning iu the commodious structure located in Coates street, opposite Twenty-first, in the city of Philadelphia, held on Tuesday, August 14th, the following resolutions and ad dress to their fellow citizens were unani mously adopted : Whereas, We the undersigned, once 2ood aud respected members of society, but at present unfortunately residing within the walls of an edifies vulgarly known as the "Eastern Penitentiary ," feeling kctaly our martyrdom, and ac knowledging the justice cf our former fellow citizens, do respectfully submit the following resolutions. Therefore be it, Rcxohed, That it i3 meet and proper for officers of the law to visit punishment upon offenders, for the secuiity ot the m- noccut. Rrsohed, That while we see nothing amiss in our past lives, we claim the larg est liberty and fullest confidence for the future. Resoleed, Believing, as we sincerely do, that all citizens have a natural and inalienable right to go wherever and to do whatever they please, W9 uuhesitat ingly denouce, as tyrauny and usurpation, any attempt to deprive any number of fellow-creatures from the equal blessings of human rights. Resolved, That we heartily and sincere ly accept our present situation. We nei ther belive in, nor desire to practise in fringements of the law. Resulted, That while conscious of hav- number of our fellow citizens, and ac knowledging the support of such vies by, perhaps, questionable practices, yet, to day, admitting as we do, the lact of our confinement, nd deploring as we do, the fact of our couGucmeat, and deplor iu ' as we d-, the los of our liberty, we same as by u enjoyed, in common with our feiiow-citizens, before the unfortunate Ci'.raugemcnts of the jet few yeari. EDITOR AX O PIBLISUEU WHOLE NUMBER 1010. Signed -Ja. Jeyms Burglar,) Jxo. Smith (Peck-Pocket,) ' VV.M. White Highwayman) ... Committee. To the citizens of Philadelphia Hav ing met in solemn convention, oc Tuesday, Augbst 14th, at the above named placa ("which delicacy forbids the- more special meutiou of,) we herewith present to- your earnest consideration this declaration of ' the principles wo seek to promote. In the firt place, gentlemen of Phila delphia, we beg leave to remind you of the extreme liability ot human minds to differ. This difference very often extends to important subjects. In religion the tenets which to one may bo entirely or thodox, to another may be blasphemom aud heretical. But we need not multiply illustrations. Sufficient to admit that at various times in the past, there have arisen between us decided difference of opiuion aud practice. We have steaiily maintained that wbe pressed by necessity there was au inherent right in man fo acquire property whncv. er and wherever he fuund it. We hive, beloved fel'ow citizens, supported our pe culiar views. We have been rather sum mary in our treatment of human life, and perhaps, adventurous in respect to human property. You have differed with ns. You bav steadily uiaiutained that 6ueh view3 as ours required restriction of the law. You have conquered. Through the or ganized channels of "Quarter Sessions" and ''Oyer aud Terminer," your ideas have been triumphanc. We accept the victory. We admit cur defeat. We own our transgressions, but we claim our liberty. We claim it on the principle of the universal equality of man without which no society caa long endure. Again : Considei what we have suffer ed. While you were feasting, vre were fasting. While you enjoyed commodious homes, we pined iu dreary valrs. Ia short, for months, yea for years, all hap piness has been yours, all misery has beeu ours. Let, us, dear fellow-citizens ! live agaia in peace and harmony. We are all mem bers of the same community, we all have a common God. Let us trust, to each other, our pocket books : let us unbar to each other our houses; let us bear in eace other our bosoms. Then, indeed, will the past with its bitterness be assuag. ed, and the honor and freedom of Phila delphia be forever secured. Adopted wilh tremendous applause, and loud calls for the reader, who is sery tng out a life sentence. Philadelphia evening Bulletin. DISTRESSING DEATH- John W. Jordan, originally from Rock bridge Co., Ya., for a while connected with the Iliviere House, Lewisburg, as bar-keeper end co partner, but more re ceetly a resident of Wiikes fiiirre, came to the Iliviere House last Saturday, labor ing under the influence of liquor.

But all efforts proved in vaiu for rum had done its work too effectually. Wednesday night, about 11 o'clock, Le died, of delirium tremens, after suffering the most awful agonies. He was interred yesterday afternoon, in the Lewisburg Cemetery. His age was about 24 years. While living in Lewisburg, his conduct was not such as to indica'e so early and awful a death; but the demon works qui etly and effectually ; aud the only sure way to avoid ruin, is to neither touch, taste nor handle the infernal beverage.
