AVASIIINGTON NEWS.
The news from Washington is of the most
interesting character. The correspondence
betwetin the President and Grant, relating to I
the removal of Sheridan, is published, Grant
protests against the removal with much earn
estness, saying it is impolitic and that Sheri
dan has carried out the object of Congress in
'passing the amended reconstruction act. The '
President replies, meeting Grant's assertions,
and making Out a pretty strong case for' his
side. Thotnas is sick-and Hancock has been
ordered by the President to command in
Louisiana. ' To this Grant is again said to
have objected, on the ground that Hancock
is needed in the West, and a-rapture between
him and the President seems imminent 'Ru

The substance of all appears to
amount to this t that the President has re

authority none hut conservative officers shall

'RADICAL SKETCHES OF THE TWO
CANDIDATES.
'Arm Jane G. Swicshelm, of Pittsburgh, is
widely known as :v female political writer of
some merit, who has, for many years, earned
a support by contributing to the press of the
country. Tier literary acquirements 'anti
thorough Radicalism have secured for her a
place on the editorial staff of the Pittsburgh
Commercial, the most extensively circulated
paper of its party in the city, to which the
piquant productions of her pen lemi addi
tional interest.. Previous to this engagement
Mrs. Swisshelm was a regular correspondent
of the Chandierstairg 'Repository. and in her
dealing with State politics dealt out her crit
icisms upon prominent public men in a spirit
of independence rarely met with. Among
those who came undcrher special dislike was
Judge Williams, the present Bailie:II candi
date fiir the Supreme Bench, who had just
about that time been suggested for the posi
tion. Forrtwo or three weeks in succession
she directed her batteries upon him with ex
treme severity, ridiculing his pretensions,
doubting his honesty, and arguing against
the policy of making him the Radical candi
date; until the l editor of the Ilephsitory Mag,
compelled to interfere, lest his paper should
lose party preitige. As a specimen of what
Mrs. S. ilionglit of the Ridge, we quote the
subjoined extrirt
"It appears to be ,an acknowledged fact

The Pittsburgh Post, in publishing. the
:dime scorching critieism, adds: "In this
connection we cannot'avold quoting the nen
desered tribute to Judge S:harswood, print
ed in' the Pittsburgh Gazette the day after his
nomination. It is from the pen of Hon. F.
II Penniman, the editor of that paper, and a
gentleman whose long residence in- the east
ern part of the State, gave him ample oppar
tunitics to become acquainted with the pub
lic. estimate of Judge Sharswood. We ask a
comparison between it and the sketch 'of
Judge Williams, by the lady editor of the
Commercial : .
- In nominating Judge ghttr‘lwood as their

crats have made a wise selection for them

unblemished. Indeed, lie is a consistent and

Tot; llarrisburg Telegraph copies the plat
form of the Perks count• Democracy, and
under the beading of " Seeeqh itesolutions,"
proeceth , to denounce it as the c.... 3s ence of
treason and teeming with everything that is
unpatriotic and vile. Ono of the planks to
which the Tel takes special exception
is the following:
/?cg4ted, That the maintenance in - violate
of the rights of the States, and especial!: the
right of each-State to order and contrul its
own domestic institutions according to its
own judgment exclusively, is essential to that
leilance of power on which the perfection
and endurance of our political fabric de
pends.
It turns out, upon investiption, that this
resolution Lsa vcrhatim copy of the main
plank in the Radical platform adopted at
Chicago in 1860, on which Abraham Lincoln
was first elected President of the United
States. The Telegraph editor probably feels
a little silly by this time.
Tin; Harrisburg Patriot gives• us the en
couraging intiirmation that reports from both
the eastern atsd-we , tern sections of the State
are highly favorablelo the election of Judge
Sharwood. In the central portion his pros
pect., arc particularly bright, and the Patriot
feels unite sure that unless there should
occur Same great and unlikely adversity be
tween this time and October, he will be suc
cessful by a handsome majority,
OVER forty thousand Republican voters of
Philadelphia supported - Judge Sharswood
for - his present position when running on
the. regular Democratic ticket- Ile was con
sidered sound on all constitutional questions
and no man or paper of any character ever
spoke of Min except in terms of praise. lie
will be elected upon his character and record,
which are not to be damaged by the penny
whistles of the Radical press. •
Iltiffato Courier bays that Sheridan is

thltattO DOMINATION IN THE SODTD.
The registration of voters iraouislaia
gives ob i the bhieks - a recorded majority of
over forty thousand, and as hone- Ind regis
tered voters are to be admitted to the elec
tions for the State - reorganization, the blacks,
.. .
eounhng nil ,the. registered , whites against
them, will have the State by forty thousand
majority—for )ve may safely assume that
all will go to the polls. Hut ass, they will
be supported and managed by ii considerable
number, say from fifteen to twenty thousand
Radical whites, they will probably carry
.throtei the reconstruction elections of Lou
isiana by fifty, sixty or seventy-five thousand
majority: This, if Sheridan's registration is
to be adhered to, is - a simple matter of arith
metic ; for the Tennessee election establishes
the essential fact that the Southern blacks
are en masse with the Republican party and
with its extreffiest Radicals. In Virginia,.
shorn of the new State of West Virginia,
there is, perhaps, allowing fur the losses of
the war, au aggregate population of eight
hundred and fifty thousand, of which the
whites have a majority of about one loin:.
Bred and fitly thousand. But under the rebel
disfranchisements of the reconstruction laws
of Congress, and universal negro suffrage,
and with the-disgust of many of the whites,
the Radicals boast that they are sure of the
State, according to the books of registration,
by some thirty thousand majority. We dare
say, too, that they are not very wide of the
mark in their calculations. They :re equally
sanguine of securing North Carolina, Geor
gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas
and Tesas, with the solid negro vote. , As
for South Carolina, with its afgregate popu
lation of seven hundred thousand, made'up
of four hundred thousand blacks against
three hundred thousand whites, the case is
clear that as reconstruction is now going on,
the blacks will assume complete and absolute
possession of the State, and will have the
power, if they choose to exercise it, of mak
ing a Legislature of black men exclusively,
and of electing an unnilved negro delegation
to Congress—Senate and Rouse,.
All the evidence before us touching, the re
construction programme of Congress shows
that if carried out according to the laws as
applied by the commanders of the five mili
tary districts, the whole ten of the States
involved in this ordeal will be at their mer
cy. We are called to meet the question of the
probable consequences of this negro suprem
acy. The return of twenty, thirty or forty
itegfo Senators and Reptlesentatives to Con
gress is hut an item among the results which
tune he reasonably anticipated in conse
quence of this. The' consequences of negro
ascendancy in the Legiftatures are most to
be feared when we consider the unsettled
balances as slaves which thege Southern
blacks will l apt to enforce against their
late white nmsters. Some very significant
hints in this direction have already - been
thrown out in the resolutions• of the negro
reconstruction meetings of South Carolina.
We know, too, that those Northern white
Radical stumpers in the South, Who have
fittest broadly suggested the possible applica
tion from Congress of "Old Thad Stevens' "
panacea of confiscation, have excited the
liveliest enthusiasm among the blacks. Is it
any wonder, then, that leading Southern
Men counsel the policy of quiet submission
tO their present military government indefin
itely as preferable to thisgeeonstrne.tim»snd
restoration scheme, which will place the
Slate; absolutely under the control of the
blacks? There is no security, and there are
a thousand dangers, in the Radical pro
gramme, which now distinctly filk?sl2oows
the placing of the late governing whites of
the South under the political control and
subject to the caprices and revenges of the
black race, relieved but yesterday front the
moral darkness, oppressions, ivroug,s and dis
abilities of African slavery. .These dangers
are so menacing that they must be apprecia
.ted by thinking Northern men.
In the course of an able speech recently
delivered in Ohio by the Hon. G: If. Pendle
ton, that gentleman stated that the expendi:
titre of the United States for the year 18I6'
" was one hundred millions more than that of
England, and one hundred and eighty mil
lions more than that of France. The great
est.expenditure of England during the Na
poleonic wars, when even Russia was stimu
lated by her subsidies—when large • armies
were kept in Spain and on the Continent,
never reached one hmulred millions of pounds
—less than live hundred millions of dollars.
England has thirty-i4z thousand millions.
The United States have siXteen thousand
millions. With less than two-fifths of the
taxable property, our people pay largely
more taxes."
"Why are the expenses of the nation kept
at their present high ligure ? The war being
over, why cannot the disbursements be put ,
upon a peaec, flatting ? The answer is, the
party in authority will not :ID ye to such a
promeition. They are scheming for a eon
, timtution of political power, and in order he
Make that a certainty have refused to allow
the Southern States to resume their old con
stitutional relations with the Federal govern
ment. Ten States are governed as military
provinces,: and the army t.tattioneti within
their hbrders must he supported out of the
earnings of the people. In addition td that
the Freedmen's Bureau is feeding thousands
I of idle, worthless negroes, who should be
compellell to work tier the maintenance of
themselves and their fumbles. This item of
pullie expenditure will reach millions of dol
lars ea , !I year. Then again, the 'expense of
putting, tiw new governments of the unrep
resented States in operation is heavy. Reg
isters are appointed in all parts of the South,
whose expenses are paid, and there are also
other leaks of a simihtr character, out of
which the public money is running in a
steady and increasing stream. These are a
few of the reasons why -our taxes are so CX
,llorbilalli, but they ar s e far from being all In
addition to the huge ;.ums foolishly squan
dered to keep. the South under the heel of
Radical tyranny by military force, a tenden
ey to extravagance in 41111)11e expenditures
has sprung up which is absolutely appalling
to every man Attu) soberly reflects over the
situation of the country. Vast appropria
;dons are made for every imaginable purpose,
apparently without the least considemtion,
and often ivith an utter indifference to the
advice of our most thoughtful and trustwor
thy statesman. It cannot be that this course
can much longer be pursued without serious
- National danger. The time hits come when
safety dictates that >t halt must be ordered,
and the people have it in their power to de
cide whether it shall be immediate, Or post:
potted until disaster forces it uponlus.
THE BOYS VAt BLUE:.
The soldiers and sailors who have taken up
their residence in Riclunond since the war
ended ought to be good judges of what is
needed in that section of the country. They
can hardly be accused of being disloyal. At;
a meeting recently held by them the Repub
lican Convention, so-called, which was com
posed of a wild crowd of several thousand
negroes and afew score ofmean office-seeking
whites, way very strongly denounced in an
admirable series or msolutions. The tenor of
Some of the spmehes was remarkable. Lieu
tenant COonel Merrill said:
"That he would rather take by the hand
a Confederate soldier who fought front hon
est intentions in a wrong cause, ale honest
ly accepted the situation, than the so-called
Virginia loyalist—even if he does have a
newspaper—who voted for the ordinance of
secession, .-4 , ;•41 thereby put the' former. into
service against ins twill. " Colonel Egbert said he was not in favor
of keeping in office those renegade Virginians
who voted. fhr 84:evasion and then went-North
as ,Union shriekers,inpreferenee lumen who
had peri/hal -their lives in defence of their

One of our excitantierta, athidares
denial of its AlleTiticio, that but a islibrt time
mince an eminent -Pennsylvania littifical, iiQ
les., a person than -Ex-Governor Curtin, made
use of the.follonlarlan:gnago: -
Dutchman is not.likc another person ;
he has tiro skult 7 e, and in order to get an ide . a
into Ids head, you nitHt break one of his
skulls." '
Tiiis is tuighty cool, considering that Cur
tin owed . his election, on both Occasions, to
the German cote, bnt it k no more than'
might be expected from a man who was an
active Know-Nothing. Curtin ix not the
only Radical whit has the assurance to
openly insult the GennaWeliment. Horace"
Greeley,in speaking of some pilwtionS of Ohio,
says:
"Esiventl counties were settled years :Igo by
a athoot-hating, ref at-loring brio! of Pennoylrer
hid Dutch."
A 31assaeltusetts paper terms the notnina-
lion of- henry Williams for the Supreme
Court, "an-acknowledgment on the part of I ,
the staid Dutch elements of-the superiority
Nos England" men." ' It calls Pennsylvania a
poor, ignorant, stupid Old Dutch State, and
presumes that '.`the next Crop of Dutch vot
ers will be as completely l'ankee4ed' as it
is possible to effect out of such unpromising
material." - The Radicals evidently think'
they can get along•wlthout the German cote
in future, or they would he.more guarded in
their expressions. When it -VVas necessary
for party success that they should receive
German support, the'y were all milk and
honey to that element, but having, as they
suppose, fixexl their party beyond the
risk of overthrow, they are now disclos
ing their real feeling towards (heat. The
gross insults and unjust legislation to which
our German citizens have been
,subjeeted,
will be remembered by them at the polls. A
party which sets.the ignorant negroes ante
South above one of the most intelligent, or
derly and useful classes of our foreign-Vora
citizens, deserves the contempt of every white
man in the land. _
THE. fall trade in the large citiesi opens brisk
ly. Merchants are already thronging the hotels,
and all the leading wholesale images arc doing
far more business than they expected to
do for several weeks to' come. The chief
member; of leading firing lire behig hurriedly
recalled front their snootier haunts, and tele
graphic messages to Manufacturers to add
largely to theirordem are very frequent. All
Western and SoOthent advico are to the ef
fect that the inatitense crops will lead to large
consumption of goods this coming fall and
winter.. The Southern people cannot help
thentselves; if thjy have any crop they must
buy, ns - they are absolutely bare of goods.
Nor are the stocks in the West large. There
was enforced economy last winter and spring,
and the absolutely necessary trade wilt be a
large trade. All, the Indications point to an
early marketing of the wheat crop to take ad
vantage of high prices, so as to buy needful
goods.
Still it would be well for producers and
merchants to bear in mind that when bare
necessities are satisfied, consumer.; will insist
upon lower prices; and this consider:OßM
may check trade in the midst of the season.
Farmers. who have marketed their wheat,
oats, trarley, and hay at prices from one-third
to one-half less than they received up to this
summer will not be disiiosed to pay the old
prices fur groceries and tirl• goods. A large
trade can be dorie this coming year; but only
on condition of lower and still lower prices.

The Pall Mall Gazette tells• the followlint
romantic cat story. Since "Puss in Bows"
we have had nothing to equal it :
"A: man named - Anwy was charged at
Marlborough street polite court yestertlitY,
with assaulting his wife. j The only
,point of
interest in tile case was the way in which the
woman was saved from farther ill-treatment.
Her husband knocked her down, jumped on
her, and throwing himself on her seized her
by the throat, and attempted to strangle her,
but while she lay on the ground screaming,
a favorite cat named Topsy suddenly sprang
on her husband and-fastened her claws in his
eyes and her teeth in his face. Iler Inisband
could not tear the eat away, and he was
obliged to implore her to take it from him to
save his life. The husband got a month's
hard labor. The report does not say wheth
er the worthy magistrate 'ordered Topsy to
have a treat at the expense of the-poor-box.
