THE MILITARY POW-tYOW AT CHI
CAGO.
We waited with some interest for the report
of the proceedings of the gathering of the
officers of the Northern Armies at Chicago, in
the expectation that, we uiight see something
in their action indicative of the maguani-
moas spirit of soldiers towards honorable but
defeated antagonists—something that would
lusnire a hope of honorable peace, and the
return of mutual conciliation, confidence and
respect. But we confess that we have been
disappointed. We have read the telegraphic
report of the proceedings and of General
Sherman’s speech,' and find our opinion of the
whole affair expressed in the following -re
marks of the Baltimore Gazelle. The editor
says :
“It is perhaps natural that the officers of
the victorious armies which overran the
■ South should desire to assemble together
from time to time to again congratulate one
another on the result of the late civil war. It
is true they were once wont to term their dis-
comfitted antagonists their brethren, and it
is a sad fact that the habitations of the latter
are still filled with woe and surrounded by
devastation ; but, nevertheless, the conquer
or must sing his song of triumph. The
heroic men who have been overborne in the
cotpbat can afford to look with unruffled se
renity upon the ovation which commemo
rates their defeat The glorification at Chi
cago, therefore, rouses no bitter feeling in the
. hearts of those who are proudly con
scious of having gained, against desper
ate odds, a reputation for constancy
and valor which the world recognizes,
and which time will preserve for ever. But
while they hold their jubilee, the officers at
Chicago might content themselves with in
terchanging courtesies and recounting the
stories of their campaigns and of their do
mestie joys or sorrows. It is scarcely worth
their while to assail the South again, and to
denounce her for what they choose to regard
as political sins. Nevertheless, General Sher
man has thought it opportune to indulge in
such a tirade in his opening address of wel
come. He seems to think, too, that argument
is as simple a business as arson, and that all
the political theories of Southern statesmen
are ns easily abolished as was Columbia “My
friends,” he said, “you did not belong to that
class of our people in whose hearts was plant
ed from- youth the pernicious doctrine of
State power.” It may be a pleasant thing for
a Major General to talk glibly about politics,
but when it is remembered that what he dis
missed so lightly was the doctrine of Washing
ton, and of Madison, of Jefferson, of Jack-
son, of Clay, of Calhoun, of Marshall and
of Taney, and thousands of men, North and
South, compared with whom Generrl Sheb-
siae is but a pigmy in reach of intellect, and
but a school boy in point of erudition, we can
afford to smile at his complacent conceit.
He further stated that he aud his audience
were of those who “revere the Constitution,
and who “believe that the will of the ma
jority should rule,” and that in this they have
discovered a panacea for “ills that have from
the earliest history of the world ravaged aud
afflicted the human family.” Yet the vast
majority of tho3C who so profoundly Tevere
the Constitution have approved of every
violation of it which the Badical party has
perpetrated, and they see, without remon
strance, the people of ten States prostrate
under a military despotism, and in many
places ruled over by negroes. The great pa
nacea, too, has somehow failed to produce in
this country the soothing effect attributed to
it. The Badical party, we believe, claims to
represent “the will of the majority,” and it
certainly rules the country, and yet the South
is worse governed than a Turkish Province.
A thousand ills afflict the South, and under
the influence of the boasted panacea they bid
fair to become mortal. It pays, however, to
puff the specific, and hence this foolish po
litical speech from General Sherman to his
old comrades in arms and co-workers in Badi-
calisrn.
Newspaper Directory.—G. P. Bo well «fc
Co., theNew York Advertising Agents are
about- issuing a complete American Newspa
per Directory. It is a compilation much
needed, since nothing of the kind having
any claims, to completeness has ever been
published.
Messrs. Bo well & Co., have spared no
pains or expense to moke the forthcoming
work complete. We understand the book
will be a handsome octavo volume of about
300 pages, bound in dark cloth, and sold for
Five Dollars per copy
As the publishers are Advertising Agents,
their issuing a work containing so much in
formation, usurlly jealously guarded by those
iu that business, shows that they are confi
dent of their ability to be of service to adver
tisers, or they would not so readily place in
their hands the means of enabling every one
to communicate direct with publishers if they
so desire.
The Negro Suffrage Amendment.—The
negro suffrage amendment is not likely
to pass Congress. The Washington Express
says: “A canvass of the House, by some of its
supporters, shows that it will not get a ma
jority vote—to say nothing of the required
two-thirds. The proposed amendment is pend
ing before the Judiciary Committee of both
Houses, and that of the Senate is expected to
report adversely to it, and at an early day.
Among those who oppose the amendment
are some of Grant’s strongest supporters."
Personal Bencounteb.—The McMinnville
(Tenn.) Veto Era says: Attorney-General
Mohleb aud John Armstrong, had a personal
rencounter in one of bur* law offices a few
days since, in which Mr. Mohleb received a
slight wound from a pistol shot. The diffi
culty, as we understand, grew oyt of some
slighty remarks made by Mohler in Reference
to some member of the Armstrong family.
Departmental Estimates. —The depart
mental estimates before the Committee on
Appropriations for the next fiscal year amount
to §300,000,000, which is very much in excess
of the estimated revenue, and will be cut
down by tbe Committee at least $25,000,000.
It is expected that all appropriations for ex
tension of public works will, be stopped, and
the. sums for repairs cut down very low.
[COMMUNXCAIK).]
BABE OF CI*V STOCKS.
To the Elilor of the Savannah Republican :
Mb. Editor—Your remarks on the reported
sale of these stocks are just the thing. I am
a member of another* party -that owns one
million of these valuable Gulf 'Bailroad
stocks. You give me hopes that a public
meeting may defeat the trade. We wish to
sell out, aud will offer better terms.
When you call your meeting of indigna
tion, do head the call thus: Odious Monopo
ly ! Sai'innah and Georgia to the Rescue of
Alabama !! This would take like wild fire,
and the valuable Gulf stocks, together with
the Gulf bonds, would he all saved to the
people of Savannah. Milledgeville.
The New Y’ork limes says: “People in Ar
kansas—men, wemen and children, trades
men, laborers, and citizens of all sorts—are
flying from—whom? From rebels, negroes,
Ku Klux, cut-throats, the outlawed, the law
less? No; but from the militia—a body which
are supposed to be authorized aud enrolled
defenders of life and property, and guar
dians of peace and order.” This militia force
is composed principally of negroes.
Change in the Nickel Coinage.—A bill has
been prepared, and will be submitted to Con
gress in a day or two, which provides for a
change in the design, and also in the propor
tions of metals, in our nickel coinage. A
great improvement is anticipated over the
present inelegant coins, for the redemption of
which the bill mokes provision.
Thomas Weaver aud Bill Simfson, the
thieves who robbed Mr. Jesse Dalton, of
Oglethorpe county, a short time since of
$10,000 iu gold, were arrested in Atlanta
last week. Only some $2,500 of the money
was found upon tbe robbers.
Five degrees of divorce were granted in
New York city on Thursday last.
Why not abolish the institution of marriage
as a relic of barbarism, a species of slavery
not to be tolerated in this enlightened age ?
Gen. Howard Mustered Out.—By direc
tion of the President, Major General O. O.
Howard is honorably mustered out of the ser
vice of the United States as major general of
volunteers, to take effect January 1, 1809.
He falls back to his rank as brigadier general
in the regular army, to which he was appoint
ed December 21, 1864. He stands sixth on
the list of brigadier generals in the regular
army. He also holds the rank of brevet ma
jor general, from March 13, 18G5.

rpHIS GUANO DIFFERS from PERUVIAN GUANO
A simply in the RELATIVE PROPORTION of the
SAME elements of fertility.
Its use during the past four years for the culture of
COTTON and corn, has given to it a character for
standard excellence unsurpassed by genuine Peruvian
Guano, and when seasons of drought intervene, it
produces a large increase of crops.
The price at which this Guano is placed is so mneh
below that of Peruvian Guano as to constitute it am
object of material importance to Southern aericultGre.
The large capital and resources of the Company ena
ble it to furnish a Guano of the highest value at the
lowest possible cost to consumers, and the highest in
terest of the Company is recognized in this policy.
The Company looks to large sales, small profits and
a permanent business for compensation on capital
invested.
