You are hereby charged with the execus tion of this order and will cause the withdrawal to take place on Tuesday next, the twenty-fourth of April, at 12 o’clock ineridiau. Very respect fully, your obedient servant. Geo. W. McCrary, Secretary of War. LEGAL BLANKS, Neatly printed and for sale at this office. Chicago, April 21,18?7. To Gen. C. C. Augur, New Orleans: Sir—By direction of the Lieuten- nianity and in the lull consciousness of his sovereign duty as the natural protector of the Slavonian nations in the East, has been compelled to re solve on obtaining by force of arm® such guarantees for his distressed fellow believers on Turkish soil as appear absolutely necessary for secur* ing their future welfare. The mani festo disavows the desire of conquest, but will hold Bulgaria as a material guarantee for reforms. A special from Vienna to the Times says that quite a panic reigns in Rou mania about the Turkish invasion. The Roumanian Government has ap plied, in its extremity, to the Powers, and it is becoming more pressing in its demand to be saved from Circas sians and Bashi Bazouks. They heve also turned to the Tui’kish Govern ment, remonstrating against the occu pation of Roumania by Turkish troops. The answer lias not been reassuring, Turkey saying the passage of Turkish troops to the Roumanian side would depend on Turkish military affairs, but that if this happens in consequence of the entry of Russian troops the Porte declines the responsibility for Roumania being turned into the thea tre of war. A special dispatch from Vienna to the Telegraph says that Roumania cannot prevent the passage of the Russian armies through her territory, as she has vainly sought support to do so from the Powers, but she can and will vigorously abstain from armed participation if Turkey does not cross the Danube also ana will herself occupy Kalafat with her own troops and prevent the Russians get ting that position, but if Turkey per sists in its proposed action Roumania will be compelled to cast her lot with tlie only power capable of affording her material protection against such a terrible calamity. Roumania’s po sition is one of critical and imminent peril. A Reuter from Bucharest has the following: The Russian General and conditions.' prevailed. THE PARADE Was formed at the appointed hour and in the following order: Charleston Light Dragoons. Washington Artillery. Music. Charleston Riflemen. Sumter Guard. Palmetto Guard. Montgomery Guards. Irish Rifle Chib. Wagener Artillery. Irish Volunteer Rifle Club. Carolina Rifle Battalion. Music. German Fusiliers. Washington Light Infantry. The line was reviewed by the Gov ernor on Meeting street, and the command also passed in review before him on South Battery, opposite Church street Tlie line of march was through Broad to East Bay, down East Bay to South Battery, and from thence through Meeting, Hasel and King streets to Calhoun. The display was extraordinarily fine ; indeed, it was a grand pageant. Governor Hampton was attended by Colonel Barker, General Capers, General Moise, and others. His ap pearance was the signal for ringing cheers, showers of bouquets and waiving of handkerchiefs. At 8, p. m., qjHE ACADEMY OF MUSIC, Was literally packed with the au dience, every member of which freely partook cf the spirit of tlie occasion. As Governor Hampton took his seat, he was subjected to a perfect torrent of bouquets. After prayer by Rev. Toomer Porter and the introductory address of Capt. Courtney, the audis ence rose to their feet and called for Governor Hampton till he yielded. He said this was not down in tlie programme, and the call, therefore, was unexpected. He considered it a privilege to participate in the pro** staff have left Kischeneff for Urgheni ceedings. By their unexampled con and Sculcni. The cavalry force is I duct, South Carolina had written the weight has b.en removed from this- shoulders of the people, and they feel as joyful as birds on tlie wing. Hampton is a guarantee of home rule and reform. These latter have cre ated a new spirit within the people, and called into existence a day that shall grow brighter and brighter. God bless South Carolina, and give to her people all that can make them prosperous, happy and powerful. Might. Vs! Right. Au Interesting lilt of Personal Correspondence— Charles Franris Adams to Samuel J. Tllden. Washington, April 17.—The fol lowing letter is now made public for the first time. As will be seen it was written on the day of the inaugura tion of President IIayes: Boston, March 5, 1877. Hon. S. J. Tildcn, New Y’ork: My Dear Sir—On this day when you ought to have been President of the United States I seize tlie oppor tunity to bear my testimony to the calm and dignified manner in which you have passed through this great trial. It is many years since I ceased to he a party mail. Hence I have endeavored to judge of public affairs and men rather by their merits than by tlie name they take. It is a source of gratification to me to think that I made tlie right choice in ’the late elec tion. I could never have been recon ciled to the elevation, by the.smallest aid of mine, of a person however re spected, in private life, who must for ever carry upon his brow the stamp of fraud, first triumphant in American history. No subsequent action how ever meritorous -can wash away the letters of that record. Very respect fully yours, Charles Francis Adams. « Sir,’’ said an okl judge to young lawyer, “ you would do well to pluck some of the feathers front the wing of your imagination, and stick tkctn in the tail of your judgment.’’ 1
