[Gen. Pope’s Letter to Gen. Grant. TH-] WESTERN ELEPHANT BECOMING DANGEROUSLY UNMANAGEABLE. The following article, from the Richmond Enquirer and Examiner, will repay perusal. The intolerable Puritan oppression that drove the South to madness will, eventu ally, drive the West —to sense: “ The military strategists of antiquity placed grett faith in elephants, although those gigantic belligerents were sometimes exceedingly dan gerous and unruly. When clad in armor and lai-tcned to armed chariots, they sometimes turned tail upon the enemy at a critical mo ment, and dashed furious and headlong through the ranks of their friends, traTnpling whole le gions under foot, and slicing them up with the fleythes which were designed to make mince meat of the enemy. “ Daring the late civil war the West was the ■elephant of the Puritan. The cunning New Unglanders harnessed that mighty sectiou to their war-car and drove it furiously against the armies of the Confederacy. The West went into the tight with the powerful valor of the back woodsmen, and did by far the bloodiest work. The hardy sons ol the new Stales spent very little time and money in buying up and dedi cating foreign and negro substitutes to the cause of “ glory,” but went in with their rifles and won the day. “The Puritan having put in his negro substi tute, devoted all of his spare time to those pur suits and occupations upon which speculating carrion crows and vultures fatten, while brave men are cutting each other's throats. He patted his war elephant on the back with one baud, and kept his carpet looms and manufactories at work with the other. He coined the whole of his superfluous loyalty into money, while the Western warriors whitened the South with their patriotic boues. While his precious car case was safe, bis pockets were bursting with The unholy fruits of knavish legislation. He heaped empty compliments upon the Western elephant, but burdened him with the most ini quitous protective tariff beneath which an agri cultural people ever groaned. He imitated the Tampire iu fanning the West with praises for its valor, while he depleted that section by means of legislation the most seltish of modern times. “ And this occupation was as pleasant and profitable as was the famous practice of blood letting which Dr. Sangredo pursued with so much substantial benefit to himself, but with such terrible fatality to his patients. And when the war ended, the Puritan who had become enormously wealthy, generously proposed to reward his negro substitute with the elective franchise, and almost every Western officer was made a —brevet Brigadier or Major General.— The brevet honors cost nothiug, but the Puri tan, thinking that the virtue of such wholesale liberality to the West should not be its own re ward, tightened the screws of his protective tariff, while parting his elephant ou the back. “ But as the West has had no lighting on its hands for more than two years, it is slowly waking up to the discovery that it had been cheated in a thousand ways by its Puritan driver. The conviction is slowly finding its way into its thick skull, that the ciamorous patriotism of the Puritan was a snare and a delusion. “ And the Western Elephant i 6 becoming un manageable, and has turned upon its New England driver with savage flourish of trunk and gleam of tusk. One by one, in obedience, doubtless, to the ground-swell of popular opinion in their States, the Republican leaders of the West are demolishing the New England idols which they have been imperiously com manded by Sumner, Fessenden and Morrill to fall down and worship. The citadel of Puritan principles is being rudely assailed, and there is acarcely one which the West is not contemptu ously trampling under foot. “ Sumner’s threat to thrust his black draught of negro suffrage down their throats, the lead ing Radical statesmen of the West have re sented with crushing power. The seed of Re pudiation dropped in Ohio has ripened in the rank of Radical soil of that State, as if it had been specially prepared for it. New England, having invested much of the profits of its war goods in national securities, denounces as the greatest of crimes a proposal to pay the interest of those securities in greenbacks. The West ern Repnblicans are evidently so much de lighted at the thought of substituting tbe engraver’s burin and a printing press for assessors and collectors of the internal revenue tax, that they are jealous of the great and growing popularity of the Democrat who originated that idea. A protective tariff, also, which every New Englander regards as a cardi nal doctrine of faith, the Western Republicans are very properly denouncing as the invention of the Evil One. “ But more frightful than all this i 6 the oppo sition of the great and hungry Western Laborer, who, casting greedy glances at tbe accumulated capital of New England—tbe fruit of oppressive tariffs and swindling con tracts—demands that he shall have a share of what was coined from the sweat of his brow, and the blood which he shed lor a‘Union,’ which Puritan machinations still prevent from being restored to its ancient strength ana harmony. “And if auything should give to the patriot more sincere pleasure than these indications that the West is throwing off the yoke of New England, it should be the spectacle of Massa chusetts honored and petted robber, mercena ry and political Judas, assuming the form of the Nemesis, which is to puuish her most sore ly whefi the West breaks forth in terrible re volt. The coolness with which Butler is evi dently preparing to strike New England as soon as he can do so with profit must be re freshing to every gentlemau of well regulated mind. “ Until that noted brigand had made himself thoroughly infamous by robbery, treachery, cruelty and cowardice, Massachusetts despised and dishonored him ; but when the cup of his infamy was full, aud all Christendom poiuted at him the finger of Scorn, that State embraced him with demonstrative affection and heaped honors upon his head. The promptness with Butler now endorses the Western idea of ma king the greenback printing presses pay the interest upon the national debt, shows that he is getting ready to wage as furious a war upon the “advanced moral ideas” of New England j as when he swore by the doctrine of secession, J and was the most zealous partisan of Mr Jefferson Davis for the Presidency of the Uni- ' ted Btates.” • ' University of Georgia.— The friends of this venerable institution will rejoice to learn : that its session of 1867-8 opened on the sth i t instant, aud the attendance of students is much larger than at any former year of its history, . ther s being about three hundred in the Uni via sity coper and University High School.

Mechanics are organizing associations to in; intain the rates of wages which they demand. The manufacturers are shutting rp their mills—the country is full of goods. Machinists are discharging laborers. Far mers are not getting rich. Wliat is the matter? Briefly we will tell you. One-half of the producing portion cf the country is throttled by the military 1 and. A great army is kept in the field to force unconstitutional measures upon the t enth. The people of the North are taxed t > support the costly military despotism— t iiey are paying smartly to aid the work of subjecting the white race iu the fairest por tion of our land to black domination. What follows ? Trade, labor, manufac turing, planting, are all .deranged and choked down. The people at the South i ted the Northern surplus of goods, but la ve no money to buy them with. The i i ndrecls of millions of gold formerly brought from abroad in exchange for cot ton, have not appeared the past two years. The North feels it. But the North feels something more. She is made to pay for the support of the despotism which drives at ray this wealth, and crushes out a valua ble customer. Reflect, continues the Hart ford Times, for one moment upon the enor mous amount of money drawn from the people—mostly from the North and West during the year ending June 30,1867: It teraal re\ enue $310,006,984 17 From > customs 179,046,651 58 Total U. S. taxation $489,053,635 75 All of this, except about $60,000,000, was pc id by the consumers of the country. Over $400,000,000 was added to the price of food, clothing, fuel, rents—to the articles of con sumption—and it fell upon the laboring classes mainly. The proportion of this burden to Connecticut was over $12,000,000 (twelve millions.) This is in addition to our own State and town taxation. It is well to look upon the figures occa sionally, and reflect upon them—otherwise we shall not be able to understand how much we are paying to the tax gatherers. The taxes of the United States Government are laid so that we do not see tile tax bills, but we pay them every time we buy a dol lar’s worth of food, of clothing, or any ne cessary of life. A good share of the yearly expenses of every person goes to the tax account. Wc paid in 1866 four times as much in taxes as the people of Great Britain did, in proportion to our wealth. W hat is the matter ? Let the people re flect. They have thirty thousand tax gath erers to support. Congress is squandering money to an alarming extent. The slioddy ites and speculators are clamoring for war. They keep up the war upon the South, with a large army there. They are making an Indian war—forcing it, exaggerating it, and speculating out of it. Already they claim the Indian war will cost us a hun dred millions of dollars. They are familiar izing the people to this monstrous sum, for they mean to steal it ftom them through congressional appropriations. The loyal leagues are filling the land with armies of office holders, most of them worse than use less. What is the matter ? The greatest pro t' ucing portiou of the country crushed by Military despotism—its $200,000,000 in gold trampled out by the soldier’s tread ; l ite South made poor and kept poor, while Millions on millions of dollars worth of goods lie upon Northern shelves without a 1 urchaser—every yard of which is needed i-1 the South. What is the matter? Disunionists are c ontrolling Congress. They are destroying c ivil liberty in this country. They make 1 iws at war with a free government. They are squandering the public money, and c rushing the people by the weight of their monstrous taxation. Matter enough! It is suprising that the people have borne it so well, and that the distress is not greater. [From the Freeman’s Journal (Catholic). Naughty Phil. now HE CAM* TO BE EXCOMMUNICATED. Our atteution has been drawn to a paragraph | i n the Herald and Vindicator , a weekly paper ia Philadelphia, owned and edited by an lrish j uian. It refers to a suggestion made by the ioston Pilot of the name of Phil. Sheridan, as : candidate for the Presidency. The Philadelphia paper puts on ’umble airs, and says it will not do for an Irish paper to propo.se an Irieh-Amer i can Catholic for President. If that is all the matter, General Phil. Sheridan can get a clean >ir dirty “ bill of health !” It is true he is of rish Catholic parentage. We have heard that le was once in the Dominican College in Ohio •a a student. If so, he is the poorest specimen j >f haudwork that we have known the Domini- I '-iris to turn out. We have beeD assured that he j s a Free Mason. If 60, and if tbe lodge he | iclongs to is in good standing, it would cer : ainly and of necessity expel him, were some | >f his doings in the Valley of Virginia to be >rought to trial—that is, except Free Masonry ; s as much altered as “ Methodists North” have i >eeu. If Phil. Sheridan wants to run as Radical audidate for President we can be of service to tim. We ean get him certificates of ipso facto by the Catholic Church. Free ilasonry is badly run down from what it us#d o be among American Masons if he cannot ;et the same certificate from that religion—if hey ever had the misfortune of having him among them. If Phil. Sheridan wants a through ticket— >roviug he is excommunicated from the Catho 'ic Church—and a reserved case at that, he can apply at our office, and we will make out his capers for him. The memory of what he did o the devoted Father Shceran, who came into ’iis lines, on proper permission, to care for dying soldiers of both armies, will haunt Phil. Sheri dan on his death-bed, and a great deal lower down, except he has the grace to get relieved rom the terrible penalties he lia6 incurred, and which it is not every priest that can absolve him from. If Phil. Sheridan is not a fool he had better hunt up Father Sbeeran, in New Orleans, and see if tbe good lather has, or can obtain, the power of absolving him. Information Wanted —There dwells in the city of Mobile a creature by name Griffin, editor of a nigger newspaper, who formerly re sided somewhere in Georgia. Whenever the Mobile Tribune has occasion to refer to this first-class specimen of a Radical, it invariably styles him, Giiffln, tho “ Poultice Eater.” For a long time we were greatly perplexed to know what the Tribune meant by this unique soubri quet. If it had called him a thief, a coward, rascal, scoundrel, sneak, skunk, or anything of that kind, we should have easily understood the thing, as these appellations are of right the peculiar property of the Southern disciples of Radicalism. But “Poultice Eater” stumped us for a long time. Afier diligent enquiry we learned that Griffin sheltered himself during the war nuder a hospital appointment, and whilst performing the arduous and dangerous duties of his office, he was caught eating the poultices prepared for sick soldiers, such as flax seed, slipery elm, mush, &c. Having sur mounted the first difficulty, a second one pre sents itself, and we are compelled to go to "the Tribune man for its eolation. We desire to know, indeed we are anxious to be informed, whether Griffin ate those poultices before or after they were used on the sick soldiers ? We pause for a reply.

Cleveland, September 10. The Cleveland Herald this evening con tains an extended account of the proceed ings of the Fenian Congress, which closed its week’s session. Last night the Congress sat with closed doors, and every part of the building was guarded with armed soldiers, and the members were sworn not to divulge its proceedings even to the Circles except as permission was given; but the Herald contrived to get all the most important facts tbit were omitted from the published finest. The proceedings throughout were stormy, ar.cl several times there was danger of the Congress breaking up in a general row.— (k nsiderable feeling was manifested at the r>roposition to swear the members to secrecy; ia t after hearing instances narrated of pre virus bad faith, it was determined to bind every member by stringent oath to secrecy. The question whether women should be ac’ mitted to Circles was answered in the nc gative because of their inability to keep a secret. The message of President Roberts, occu py ing several columns, was given to the pi bite, but the supplementary message, cc ntaining accounts of his mission to Paris, wis reserved for the private consideration of the Congress. In that document, Mr. 3 rberts said that after visiting Circles in (5 -eat Britain and Ireland, lie went to Paris, w iere he met the representatives of the Irish Revolutionary Brotherhood. He found the Irish people very much discouraged since the failure in Canada, and it required liis best efforts to convince them that the Fenian Brotherhood, as now organized in America, were not responsible lor the dis aster ; and to lay the blame upon the pro per persons, the Stephens party. These men had been sent to Europe to work for the cause, but instead of doing the work aid out for them, they had put up at the best hotel, kept fast horses, and faster women, and had squandered the money which the poor, hard working Irish people had freely given for the independence of Ireland. He had labored until the fourth of .July to effect a bond of union between the I. R. B. of the old country and the F. B. of America, and upon that day it was ac complished, and to-day the two were one in purpose. He said the time and place to make a strike came up, and was fully dis cussed by the gentlemen. Some suggested six months from the 4th of July, but he told them that he did not think that the two organizations would be in perfect work ing order so as to strike together before twelve months, and the matter was so de cided. He stated that the Irish of the old country were warm upon the subject, and only wanted the co-operation of the Irish men of this side of the water; but that the Irish of the old country would never rise again until an army fully equipped and armed stood upon Irish soil to defend them; that it was extreme recklessness, and would lead to nothing but butchery for them to make a strike without the aid of American Irishmen. During this Paris meeting Ste phens and his party were denounced in most severe terms as adventurers, and they have resolved to hold no communication with them. The organization here must be in perfect working order, and be able to make a grand strike before another yea l- , for “ hope deferred maketh the heart sick,” and Dish people of the Old Country were look ing across the water for aid. Mr. Roberts read a long document from the “ Irish Republic Brotherhood” organi zation iu the Old Country, to the “Fenian Brotherhood” in America, pledging for a grand union and aid in the common cause, which was addressed to the Congress as sembled in Cleveland. He then said he left t le entire matter in the hands of the Con gress, hoping that they would be guided by wisdom and the love of country. General Spear, Acting Secretary of War, reported that the whole force of the Fenian 1 irigade numbered 9,300 enlisted men, with about 15,000 rifles, 16,500 accoutrements, and 120,000 rounds of ammunition; in ad dition, there were 100 rifles along the bor der from St. Albans to Oswego, in the lands of private parties. At Sackett’s I larbor about 2,000 stand of arms, aud at Platt’s Point about 1,200, at Oswego 119 rifles. In all about 20,000. In addition to mis force, the Stevens wingclaimed to have 15,000 stands of arms, 15,000 sabres, and a 1 trge lot of ammunition and a vessel in New York harbor. It was decided that four military organizers should be appoint ed to raise troops; that an Inspector Gen «ral should also be appointed. Ten batte ries of field artillery, three cavalry regi ments of ten companies each, and two light 1 atteries, mounted, to go with the cavalry, are to be appointed. Casey’s tactics are to lie adopted. A fund to defray army ex penses is to be raised by collecting ten cents from each soldier. The soldiers of the Ar iny of the Irish Republic, by which name i he military organization is hereafter to be known, are to be sober and discreet men, as 'veil as good fighting soldiers. No man addicted to intoxicating liquors is to be ad mitted into the ranks, and any man found drunk will be dismissed. A committee from the Stevens wing of the ! brotherhood sent a communication asking that a committee be sent to confer with them on the subject of the union of the two wings. After sharp debate a committee was appointed, and the result of the con erence was an arrangement for perfecting he union of the two factions of Fenians in America together with the Fenians in reland into an organization to be known ;,s the Irish Republic. Colonel Roberts was rc-elected President, but declined unless the Congress would r aise $500,000 for the cause. Half that amount was pledged, and after further cou ; Col. Roberts accepted the nrosi ion. It was decided to call ou all Circles to im mediately send to headquarters what funds vere in their possession, and to waste no nore money for flags and trappings. Every available dollar is to be used for the pur chase and refitting of arms and the procural of ammunition. The bonds of the Irish Republic were re ported to realize only twenty cents on the dollar, so that the |strictest economy is ne cessary. No definite time has been fixed on for the grand movement. The Congress agreed to leave the determination of the time and general plan of the campaign to a convention of the military officers of the Irish Republic, to be held in the Spring. A resolution of respect for the memory of Thomas Francis Meagher created a heated discussion, there being a wide difference of opinion as to his merits and the services he had rendered the Fenian cause. Applause and hisses greeted every repetition of his name, and the resolution was at last de clared carried, amid vociferous dissent. A resolution was adopted by a large ma jority appointing a committee to draft an appeal to the United States Government in behalf of the Irish patriots, prisoners con fined in British dungeons. In the debate on the passage of this resolution, the spirit of the Congress was in favor of such ac tion, and that the two great political par ties in America should understand that whichever party proved friends of the Fe nian Brotherhood would receive the pledge of support from the Brotherhood, and that this should be taught to different circles at home. In this way the Fenian Brother hood would become a power to be felt and heard in America. It was the feeling that all parties should lie ignored, and that the Brotherhood should be the enemy of its enemies, and the friend of its friends no matter who the party or what their prin ciples. A declaration of principles was after wards adopted and given to the public as were a series of resolutions, which profess ed hearty co-operation with the friendly press, disclaiming and forbidding any use of the Brotherhood for political purposes in connection with present parties in this country; of thanks to prominent citizens who aided in the recovery of the Fenian arms; and of acknowledgment to the Irish Nationalities of Cleveland, and discounte nancing any applications of funds except for the purpose of arms and other revolu tionary purposes.
