"On tbe whole, then, I am of opinion tliat
the provision of the act of Congress of Feb
ruary 25th, 1802, declariug the notes leaned
in pursuance of tliat act to be lawful money,
and a legal tender, is unconstitutional.
"This renders it unnecessary that I should
consider the other question which hue been
made, as to the effect of tliu special agree
ment to pay in lawful silver money of the
United States. I am in favor of entering
judgment tor the plaintiff, but as s majority
of the court are of a different opinion, judg
ment for the defendant." Corned from the
Philadelphia Age oj Hid of February, 1804,
where the opiuion is published in full.
It may also be found in the Isgal Intelli
gencer of March 18, 1864, page 03.
. In the same copy of the Age is a carefully
prepared eulogy of the judge and this opin
ion, in which is the following :
"Judge Sharswood reasons upon and de
cides the case as if he were some lofty spirit
sitting far above and out of tbe contentions
and strifes of the world."

Government bonds consider tbe judge as

J3f Ghaut vb. Johnson. We refer our
readers to the correspondence between Gen.
Grant and President Johnson, in regard to
the removal of Gen. Sheridan from his com
mand, at New Orleans. If anything in this
world can make tbe President more con
temptible in the eyes of all honorable men
than heretofore, this correspondence will ac
complish it. The President's reply is so liimo
and impotent that even his own partisan
organs cannot defend him. His stereotyped
plea and affected regard for the Constitu
tion, which his rebel iriends repudiated,
and are now endeavoring to overthrow, is
ton bIirIIdw even to attract attention. No
Executive, if even a military man, who pos
sessed common honesty and ordinary lctelli
gence, would attempt to overrule the officer
at the head of the army, especially one so
distinguished as Gen. Grant, and who pos
esses the entire confidence of the people.
The people of the South are beginning to
see that the President's reckless course has
retarded reconstruction, and is bringing
ruin upon themselves, and many of their
leading journal are now proclaiming this
fact to the people.

war between the President and Gen. Grant

The Tribune says also that the New York
Herald, which has invested heavily, of late,
in Johnson, under tho impression he was
backed by Grant, is dumb founded by his
letter, and now plainly sees that it has, for

PRESIDENT JOHNSON TO GENERAL GRANT.
Executive Mansion, )
Washington, D. C, Aug. 19, 1807. (
General : I have received your com
munication of the 17th inst., and thank you
for the promptness with which you have
submitted your views respectinff tue assign
ments directed in my order of that date.
When I stated, in my unofficial note of the
17th, that I would be pleased to hear any
suggestions you might deem necessary upon
the subject, it was not my intention to ask
from you a formal report, but rather to in
vile a verbal statement of any reasons affect
ing the public interests which, in youropin
ion, would render the order inexpedient.
Inasmuch, however, as you havo embodied
your suggestions in a written communica
tion, it is proper that I should make some
reply.
Yon earnestly urge that the order be not
insisted on, remarking that "it is unmistak
ably the expressed wish of the country that
Gen. Sheridan sl.ould not be removed
from his present command." While I am
cognizant of the efforts that have been made
to retain Gen. Sheridan in commnud of the
Filth Military District, I am not awnro that
the question has ever been submitted to the
people themselves for determination. It
certainly would be unjust to the army to
assume that, iu the opinion of the nation, he
alone is capable of commanding the States
of Loaisiuna and Texas, and that, were he
for any cause removed, no other general in
tbe military service of the United States
would be competent to fill his place. Gen
Thomas, whom I have designated as hi
successor, is well known to tbo country
Having won high and honorable distinction
iu tho held, ho has since, in the execution of
tbe responsible duties of a department com
mander, exhibited great ability, sound (lis
cretiou, und sterling patriotism. Ho has
not failed, under the most trying circum
ntances, to enforce the laws to preserve peace
and order, to eucurage the restoration ol
civil authority, and to promote, as fur as
possible, a spirit ot reconciliation. His ad
ministration of the Department of tho Cum
bcrlaml will certainly compare most favor
ably with that of Gen. Sheridun in the
Fifth Military District. These affairs appear, j
to be in a disturbed condition, aud a bitter
spirit of antagonism seems to have resulted
from Gen. Sheridan's management. He has
rendered himself exceedingly obnoxious by
the manner in which be has exercised even
the powers conferred by Congress, aud at ill
more so by a resort to authority not granted
by law nor necessary to its faithful and effi
cient execution. His rule has, in fact, been
one of absolute tyranny, without reference
to the principles of our Government or the
nature of our free institutions. The state of
affairs which has resulted from the course ho
has pursued, has seriously interfered with a
harmonious, satisfactory, and speedy execu
tion of the acts of Congress, and is alone
sufficient to justify a change. His removal,
therefore, cannot "be regarded as an effort
to defeat the laws of Congress;" for the ob
ject is to facilitate their execution, through
an officer who has never failed to obey the
statutes of the land, and to exact, within his
jurisdiction, a like obedience form others.
It cannot "be interpreted by the unrecon
structed element in the South those who
did all they could to break up this Govern
ment by arms, aud now wish to be the ouly
element consulted as to the method of re
storing order as a triumph;" for, as intel
ligent men, they must kntrw that the intro
change of military commanders cannot alter
the law, aud that Gen. Thomas will be as
much bound by its requirements as Gen.
Sheridan. It cannot "embolden them to re
newed opposition to tho will of tho loyal
masses, believeing that they have the Exe
cutive with them for they are perfectly
familiar with the antecedents of the Presi
dent, and know that he has not obstructed
the faithful execution of any act of Congress.
No one, as you are aware, Las a higher
appreciation than myself of the services of
Geu. Thomas, and no one would be less in
clined to assign him to a command not
entirely to bis wishes. Knowing him as I
do, I cannot thiuk that he will hesitate for
a moment to obey any order having in view
a. complete and speedy restoration of the
Union, in the preservation of which he has
rendered such important and valuablo ser
vices. Gen. Hancock, known to tbe whole country
as a gallant, able, and patriotic soldier, will,
I have no doubt, sustain his high reputation
in any position to which he may be assigned.
If, as you observe, the department which he
will have is a complicated one, I feel con
fldent that, uudur the guidance and instruc.
tions of Gen. Sherman, Gen. Sheridan will
soon become familiar - with its necessities,
and will avail himself of the opportunity
afforded by the Indian troubles for the dis
play of the energy, enterprise, and daring
which gave bim so enviable a reputatiou
duriug our recent civil struggle.
Jo assuming that it is the t pressed wish of
the people that General Sheridan should hat
be removed front his present command, yon
remark : 'This is a republic where the will ef
tbe people is the law of the land,' and 'Beg
that, their voices may he heard,' This is
indeed a , republic, baaed, however, upon it
written Constitution. " That Constitution is
the combined and expressed will of the peo
ple, and their voice is law when reflected in
the manner wnicn mat instrument presun
bet. i While one of its provisions makes the
President Commander-in-Chief bf the army
and navy, another requires that bo shall take
care that the laws be faithfully executed.
Believing that a change in the command of
the 6th military district is absolutely neces
sary for a faithful execution of the laws,
I have issued the order which is necessary
for a faithful execution of the subject of this
correspondence, and in thus exercising a
power that inheres in the executive under
tho Constitution as comniandtT-in chief of
tho njiitary navy forces, I am discharging a
duty required of me by the will of the na
tion, as formally declared in the supreme
law of the land. Any other course would
lead to destruction of the republic, for the
Constitution once abolished, there would be
no Congress for the exercise of legislative
powers, no cxecutivo to see that the laws
are faithfully executed, no Judiciary to
afford to the citizen protection for life, Hnil
and property. Usurpation would inevitably
follow, and a despotism be fixed upon the
people in violation of their combined and
expressed will.
"In conclusion, I fail to perceive any mil
itary, pecuniary or patriotic reasons w hy thi
order should not bo carried into effect. Yon
will remember that in tho first instance I
did not consider Gen. Sheridan the most
Rtiitablo officer for the command of the
Fifth Military District. Time has strength
ened my convictions upon this point, and
has led me to tho conclusion that patriotic
considerations demand that he should be
superseded by an officer who, while he w ill
faithfully execute the law, will at the same
time give more general sntislaction to the
whole people, white and black, North und
South.
"I am, General, very respectfully, yours,
"Andrew Johnson.

War ad inkrim."

Wa8HINoton. Aug. 27. It is believed by
prominent gentlemen here that tho differ
ences between tho President and General
Grant in relation to the removal of Generals
Sheridan and Sickles are irreconcilable. The
orders issued by the President yesterday,
directing General Hancock to relieve Gene
ral Sheridan, and' General Can by to relievo
General Sickles, have not yet beeu executed.
It is said thut General Grant, in a letter
to the President, declines to direct the order
to bo executed, aud states Ins relusal in
strong terms, virtually denying the right of
the President to mterfere in any ono ot the
five military districts created by Congress,
asserting that the entire control ot the de
partments rests, by the supplemental Kecon-
struction act, on the General of the Armies
of the United States, and thut therefore he
is cot at liberty, aud will not transfer it to
another.
The letter has not been made public, but
the above statement is believed to be relia
ble, as it is derived from usually well inform
ed sources.

forty horses. The Indian loss is reported at
about one hundred aud fifty.
After the battle was over, the savages
sent in a flag of truce with tho following
message : "Tell your officers we do not want
peace. We are for war. We shall keep on

again.
Three hundred men, embracing tho Kan

Immense swarms of locusts were in the

The first extract is beaded ecidenceof loyalty,
and is well worthy of earful perusal by those
who believe in the loyalty of traitors :
EVIDENCE OP LOYALTY.
A squad of the Democracy of Forsyth a
few days ago, entrapped a teacher of the
colored school, ut that place, into their
clutches, and brutally shot him in several
places ; and so severe are the wounds that
his li to is despaired of. These fellows are
of the cIses that claim that they are tbe beat
friends of the colored people. They say
they were raised together, that they "played
marbles together," "went in a swimming"
together, and other tbiugs together ; aud
consequently ought to vote together. They
have the interests of the blacks so very much
at heart that they are willing to ribk the
consequences of killiug an einUtary, that
they way be saved from that "dangerous
tbiug," "a little learning." They burn col
ored school bouses out of pure kiuduess and
friendship.
Tbe second extract is beaded rtld defini
tion of freedom as rendered in practice. Mr.
Senator "Wallace, Chairman of the Copper
head State Ceutral Committee, should adopt
this extract as a text for his forthcoming
sententious address s '
, ItKBKL DEFINITION OF FUEEDOM.
Tho only idea of freedom that a rebel can
comprehend, is to set at defiance all laws,
atd tyrannize over those thoy pronounce
their inferiors. They are now prating about
the Constitution, and insisting that it guar
antees liberty to all, and security agains
arbitrary arrests by the military ; yet, they
themselves, without any warrant of even
their own rebel law, seize a negro and drive
hlni, like an ox, to some place Of confine
ment. A case of this kind occurred here a
few days ago. Three of these irentlemcn
who have such a high appreciation of free,
diini came riding into town on their chargers,
driving brbtrc them a fellow-mutt I Uut,thcu,
"he was only a nlpger 1"
Do such people deserve freedom, until
they are willing 16 I concede freedom to
others? ' -" " -'

11AILI10AD COMI'ANT,
THEIR
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
AS AN INVESTMENT.
THE rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad,
now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and farm
ing, with its western connections, un unbroken lino
across th continent, attracts attention to the vnluu
( of the First Mortgage (lords which the Company now
oner to itiessnnuo. me nrst question asae.i i.y pru
dent investors is, "Are these bonds secure ?" Next,
' Are they a profitable investment ?" To reply in
brief:
1st. The early completion of the nholo creat line
! to the Pacific is us eertain us any future busine
i event can bo. The Government grant of over twen
j ty million acres of land and filly million dollnis iu
i its own bonds practically guarantees it. One fourth
j of tho work is already done, and the track continues
I to be lnid at tho rate of two miles a dfiv.
2d. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are Issued
upon what promises to be one of the most pinfitiiblii
line of railroad in the country. For many years it
must be the only line connecting tho Atlantic and
Pacific ; and being without competition, it can
maintain remunerative rates.
3d. 425 miles of this rood are finl-hed, and fully
equipped with depots, locomotives, ours, Ac, and
two trains are daily runniug each way. The mate
rials lor the remaining D2 miles to the eastern bsso
of the Rocky Mountains are un hand, and it is under
contract to be done in September.
4th. Tho net enrniugs of the sections already fin
ished are several. times greater than the gold interest
upon the First Mortgage Bonds upon such sections,
aud if uot another milo of the road wero built, tho
purl already completed would not only pay interest
and expenses, but be profitable to the Company.
5th Tbo Union Pacific Railroad bonds can be is
sued only as the road progresses, and therefore can
never be in the market unless they represent a bona
fide property.
tith. Their amount is strictly limited bylaw to a
sum equal to what is granted oy tbe U. S. Govern
ment, and for which it takes a second lien as iu se
curity. This amount upon tho first 517 miles west
from Omaha is only (16.111)0 per mile.
7th. The fact tbat the U. S. Government considers
a second lien upon the rood a good investment,
and that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of
the country have already paid in five million dollars
upon the stock (which is to them a third lien), may
well inspire confidence in a first lien.
8th. Although it is notolaimed thut there can bo
any bettor securities than Governments, thero nro
parties who consider a first mortgage upon such a
property as this the very best security in tho world,
aud who sell their Governments to re-invest in these
bonds thus securing a greater interest.
9th. As the Union Paoifio Railroad bonds aro of
fered tor the present at 90 cents on the dollar and ac
orued interest, they are the cheapest security in tho
market, being more than 15 per cent, less than U. S.
Stocks.
10th. At the current rate of promium on gold, they
pay
Over lne IVr Cent. Intereat,
