they will share with him, providing,
they are as accommodating and sell

About to Close. Tho Provost
Marshals office of the HUh district, is
about winding up business. The office
for the last six months has been locatcJ
.-it this phicc, on account ot this being
the most central point in tho district.
So far as eonsecriis the office, no matter
where located , it is an institution that
n-c, a3 well as all other rational men, ic
joice to sec closed ; in hopes that the
like may never be opened again to dis
grace a free people. We can cheerfully
say, that so far as the gentlemen that
officiated in the office, from tha Provost
Marshal down to even the orderly, (Po.
ncy) were men of talent and ability, and
treated all who Wire unfortunate enough
to fall in their hands, by way of draft or
otherwise, with due respect ; rendering
unto each iu turn, that which they by
regulations aud orders from the war do.
partment, were compelled to do. Wc
regret to part with those that composed
the booard, but rejoice at the closing of
the oflice.

be fortunate or not.

X7"The fact that slavery is dead, is
necopted by all, aud none realize it more
fully than the people of the South.
Democrats rejoice that this question is
removed from politics. The party nev

tended as it still contends that each
state has- a right to control its own do.
inestio institutions slavery included.

Stunning Letter from General
Sherman.
New York, May 25.
The following is the letter from Ocn.
oral Sherman complaining of tho sup.
prcssion of his official reports, already
referred to :
Camp near Alexandria, )
May 19, 18C5. j
Pear Bownian I I am just arrived.
All my army will bo in to day. I have
been lost to the world iu tho woods for
somo time. Yet on arriving at tho
settlements fouua that I have made
quite a stir among tho people at home,
and that the most siusiter motives nave
been ascribed to mo. I have made fre
quent official reports of my officialaction
iu all public matters and all ofthemhave
been carefully suppressed, while the
most ridiculous nonsense has been in.
dustriously spread nbroad through all
tho newspapers. Well! Yon know
what importance I attach to such mat
ters aud that I have been too long fight
ing with real rebels, with muskets in
their hands, to be scared by mere non
combatants, no matter how high the;r
civil rank or station. It is amusing to
observe how brave nnd firm some men
become when all danger is past. I have
noticed on fields of battle that bravo meu
never insult tho captured, or mutilate
tho dead, but cowards and braggarts al.
ways do. I cannot now recall the' act,
but Shakespeare records how poor FaL
staff, the Prince of cowards and wits,
rising from a figured death stabbed again
tho dead Percy and carried the carcass
aloft in triumph to prove his valor. So
now, when tho rebellion in our land is
dead, many Palstaffs'appcar to brandish
the evidence of their valor aud seek to
win applause aud to appropriate honors
for deeds that never were done. As
to myself, I ask no popularity, on reward,
but I dare the War Department to pub.
lish my official letters and reports. I
assert that my official reports have been
purposely suppressed, while all the power
of the press has been malignantly turned
against me. I do want peace aud secu
rity nnd the return to law and justice
from Jainc to tho Ilio Grande, aud if it
doe3 not exist substantially, it is for
State reasons beyond my comprehension.
It may bo thought strango that one
who has uo fame but as a soldier, should
have been so careful to try and restore
the civil power of the government and
the peaceful jurisdiction of tho federal
courts; but it is difficult to uifcover in
that fact any just cause of offenso to an
enlightened and free people ; but when
men choose to slander and injure others
they can easily invent the facts for the
purpose, when the proposed victim is far
away engaged in public service of their
own bidding. But there is consolation
in knowing that though truth lies in tho
bottom of a well, the Yankees have pcr
sevcrence enough to get to that bottom.
Yours truley,
W. T. Sherman.

Tho IlurahVs Washington special
says : Rumors of disagreement between
Secretaries Usher and Harlan have been
exaggerated. There is an unfriendly
feeling between theso gentlemen, grow,
ing out of certain appointments and
contracts. A difficulty has also risen,
relative to tho Pacific Railroad Compa
ny's claim to have completed forty miles
of road as lequired by law,, and to bo

occur which is not essential should be
immediately filled, they shall be kept
open until some wounded officer or sol.
dier shall bo found competent for posi.
tion. All minor places in departments
arc being filled as they become vacant
with wounded or disabled soldiers, and
applications from others aro useless.
Tho Times' special says : Secretary
M'Culloch, in order to meet all demands
upon the Treasury, has decided to pay
fifty per C2nt. in currency and fifty per
cent, in certificates of iudobtedness, on
all claims over two thousand dollars,

The Worhfs special says : The lie-
publican asserts with great positivcuess
thai the (iovernmcnt has not only not
decided to try Jeff. Davis before tho
civil court of this district, but it his not
decided to try him yet before any civil
tribunal. It intimates very clearly that
his trial will take place before a military
commission.

forward to try Davis before a civil court
in about ten das.

Tho journals continuo discussing tho
fato of Jeff. Davis.
The Daily News hopes mercy will be
extended, not but that ho fully deserves
punishment, but, because the principles
of the federal government represent the
already vindication so triumphantly,
that nothing canbe added.
No puuishiifCnt could bo greater than
failure, and mercy would cause no regret
in future years.
The Times says after the enormous

or unconcern. It may prove a fortunate
or fatal success, as tho policy of tho
government may be so effected by the
personal views of the President.

Her lip3 arc red aud finely wed,

Like snow flakes on tho snow ;
