We hnr.ard little in say ing that tlie speech of
the Prceidcnt at Miem la not snob, an the public
bad a right te expect frra Mr. Davis at this criti
cal junciure of onr affairs. The lca-( tlie Piosi
dml lays abuut the late campaign in Georgia the
tetter, lie ban shocked the country and tho
army already enough by what bits transpired
ander hie dirtctlon, to spare lliem a detcose of
lie policy. The evidence accumulates that hid
JobuMou been retained in oomniar.il of the Ten
nessee army, Atlanta would not only have been
laved, but Sherman's hosts would have b en
detttoyed. In the very plncb of bis campaign,
in the very vintage timuot victory, iho President,
wiitout i. no word of warning or remoiisiran e,
removed ".hat old und skiltul General" from tho
army. Sherman in his report of his opcralons

These periodical iutirlciciicts of tho President
are fast bringing Us to irricf, supping the co ill

encouraging our enemies, and paving the way f.r

menced early in tbe day. Our position was well
taken in an open Hold, ncir Sa.tvllle. lien', Irom

our position; but wore nwi.ed wi'tt sueu a

The total loss of the K- s rves was eighteen,

missing. The regular rc-ln,etits lost ttil."y n.ne
wom ded, none killed.
The men detuiled to hury the Ynkeo don t

I feel compelled, in self-defense, to trouble, you
pgaiti for the publication of a few lines.
I repeat ence more that I never did solMt any.
tbirg at all of the so-called Imperial Oovernnvnt

lul.nid to it j be who so suites falsely aittnua that
I bave done so.
It is a most Infamous calumny to insist upon

w.'tb il.a it.Vi dcrs to save my private property.
t but I possess in tbe Mtate of Guanajuato bus
bun acquired just as legally as any pniperty
bought by any one else politics have uoihlug to
do vitb n.y lortunc, which has been gotten by
loiicst labor; for that very rea-on I need ask no
p uatantie at all of the so-called Imperial Goveru
lnent. My piorarty. like everv other (Arson's, is
guarantied by the civil luws in vigor in Mexio
Ivrg eft re the country was inva led.
Of nil the national pro)erty sold in Mexico, I
bought but one single bonse, and that 1 paid
for aeeoidirg to the regulations of the laws of
ref'iim nailed thereby tbe legltiui'ito Govcrn
intiilof uiy tountiy. 1'he Fruiich intervention
bus tcter dan d to derogate them, In spite of the
ex'gcncles of the clergy and traitors, because
evi ty one knows tint, owing to idem, tbe I n Hci
rtsiumg iu Mexico l ave become possessors of
n oic tliim one-third of the so-called Church pro
pi n it e.
Therefore, that person asserts what Is untrne
W ho persists In i. MWnilrg Una I have endeavored
to cult r into uny kind of arrangement with thu
usurpti ol Mexlio to save uiy limine, end I dely
any t nu to show n.y signature uiitxcd to any
d a uii.ent oi the kind.
1 did pretend to savo my fortune legally tic

of a bill, in the om n held', nnd Ibis was bis
I,ca.diUarteis during the w.nter. His style o
living was of the pluimst kind, and such as
becume the tiue Ki.hiiir. Nothing could indued
him to enter Ibe huusi s of tho pe ipie, nor would
he p. mill any one of bis stall to occupy tnein.
11 is lent was his home and bis headquarters ; and
like a true roldier, he never forgot tintt he w is
placed bete to do hia duty to bis God and bia
country. Altai e und eour'eous In bis manners,
with a nainre kicniy auso pilule to the demands
of justice and Irue humanity, quick to interpret
betwten light and wiong, a rimd disciplinarian,
exacting in bis demands of duty from bia sub
oioinutis. you could tlud no truer friend or moro
ngiceat le companion when the work of the day
was over.
Luc uiraging, alike by tils triumph and prccct
true maiilincss iu bis oilie r, it was bis highest
aim to promote tbo interests of all under hiiii,
ard to In, prove their discipline, that ttiey would
rttltct honor on ifaclr country tu tbe day of

ronlidi uce and esteem oi bis soldiers, and with
tin ni be found the basis of wbat was ntVrwards
known in tho ai my as the "noble old 6th Corp,"
and which was so much feared by the enemy.
Franklin was a sincere believer in tbe pilicy
that it was onr duty to fight and conquer the
enemy whtrt vtr we found turn in arms; but that
const h nco mid humanity demanded that we pro
tect tbe di tensele.-a and the innocent. lie saw
that in the tarty stages of tbe war ottluors wore
too intit h inclined lo yield to nuaece-sary fears;
and in aiming thce frnra to use sucb means aa
I rouebt ai-treas upon the Innocent. And be wa
loo di ep a thinker not to know that justice and
moderation exercised in an enemy ' country are
ui ghtli r weapons thuu tlie sword.
1 nevt r saw a man who had a moro bono it and
outspoken contempt fur hypocrisy in whatevor
form it showed list II, and so tree was be to rebuko
itwlicnivi r it interfered with tbo discipline of
bis men that several of those tcltisb and purvcrse

to iiii.-et nstiue tbe acts of Geueiuls and cause tlis
sentioi s unning their men, In '.' in repaying Ins

Ai d it was a misinriiino fr in which both thu

CITY INTELLIGENCE.

Tun Election. The election of to-day ha
absorbed everything else of interest. But little
bnrlness la doing, and In what fewof theolllccsaro
open little activity is presented. Items of all
kinds, except election items, are few and fir be
tween. Tha nsual police rep irts woro not in 1 lo
to the Mayor ibis uioruuig, ueitliur were any of
the Couria in session. Tbe election is progress
ing quietly, and nothing of any moment, ao far
as could be ascertained, has occurred wuhia the
city limits to prevent our citizeus from exorcising
their rights at tbe polls.
As soon an the polls were opened this morula!,'
large crowds Hocked aronud, which eeein to lu
cres se In numbers as the day advances. Old
grey haired men and some of our most respect 1
blu cit lit ns, who were nuvur beforo seen to tarry
any longer than was Htilllt lent 10 deposit their
ballots, linger around the polls watching anxiously
how ibe day goes. Never befiro was such an
lull rest k it, every tuu is up aud about, aud the
rt suit is not feared.
I'p to noon to-day we had reports from aoverat
wards of the progress of tbe balloting, and tbe
indications are that a large Union majority will
be rolled np. Still our patriotic and loyal citizen
should be untiring in their efforts, and should
work like Leavers until tho chasing of tho polls.
F.very vote polled strikes tenor tu the hearts of
tbe 1 1 adore in car midst.
Political Mebtimos. A number of political
gathtrit ge convened in various parti of the city
last night. The only two of any note, however,
being one at Concert Hull aud tbe other at the
Continental Theatre. Speeches wore made at the
former place by N. K. Richardson, Hon. Chariot
O'Ntil), William D. Pierce, and others.
Iaist night the Union League of the Twenty
third Ward and tbe Union cititens of Frankford,
together with a delegation of tbe Republican In
vincible nearly lour hundred strong, p traded
through the princiiai streets of Frankford. The
nsual ealvauade and mouoed transparencies made,
np part of the attraction. A large portion of tho
re-ldetits, including the ladies and even tho
children, lined the sidewalks, applauding tbe
processionists with cheers and waving h tu I ker
chiefs. Residences on all tbe slice's marched
through were brilliantly Illuminated. When tho
procession bad pasted over Its route, which ended
at tbe "Seven Stars'' hotel, a large mee.mg was
held, presided over by Jamea Asbwortb, Jils...
