He tieolared it was not his intention to introduce a single personal matter, but to speak of public no to. He then referred to the re? moval of Sheridan from the command of the Fifth Military District, in 1867. It was in consequence of tho wail which camo up from the people of that section. Why was it Sheridan was selected to send back to these people, who before condemned him and prayed for his re? moval? Ho. (Johnson) know the deter? mination of the people of the South; their great object was to be restored to tho Union. Referring to the action of Grant toward Louisiann, he would sav to this Emperor what Cato said to the Am? bassador of Crosar, "Let him disband his legions and restore ' tho commonwealth to liberty;'' let him do that, and he, (Johnson,) as humble as he was, would mount the rostrum and strive to have an indignant people forgive him for his violation of law. The Department of tho Interior will send geologist to the Black Hills coun? try, to investigate the reports of its great mineral wealth; in tho meantime, tho War Department will be asked to protect the Sioux in all their treaty rights, and allow no whito persons to enter that country. *|apid steps are in progress to? wards * entering negotiations with the Sioux, for the extinguishment of their title.

[ Execution or a Bandit. ? A roan who resembled tho traditional bandit of the I novel and. the stage more than he did the ordinary 'American criminal, was hanged on Friday, in San Jose, to the general relief of the community he had so long plundered and menaced. This' I was Tiburoio Vasquez, a robber and mur? derer of the ancient type, who was to California what Fra Diavolo was to Italy, who, it is said, certainly killed eight persona, and probably killed many others, and whose robberies it would bo difficult to record. Ho was the terror of Southern California, and was leagnod with other desperate men as wicked but not as intelligent as himself. Of his crimes and tho long war he waged with society, an interesting account is given. He died bravely, as such men generally do, and professed his innocence of mur? der to tho last, although the evidence of his guilt is convincing. An Emphatic Denial Fbom Gen. F?h? rest.?A few weokssinco, tho Washington National Hepuhlinan published editorially an extract which it declared had been taken from a speech made by Gen N. B. .Forrest at Muldon, Tenn. The sub? stance of the extract was that another war was inevitable, and therefore the white paople ought to commence and kill off all tho carpet-baggers and scallawags, or run them out of the country. This editorial was sent to Gen. Forrest by a friend, in reply to which the genend has written a letter, in which ho says: "In the first place, there is no town in Tennessee, to my knowledge, called Mul? don, and in the second place, I have not made a public speech of any kind for more than two years?have never uttered in the article1 you enclose attributes torne." It is safe to assert a lease for 999 years has never run out in this country, but this hus recently occurred in England. An estate let for that term has reverted to the original holders, or rather their rep- j resentatives. The land is at Woolwish,1 and was church property 1,000 years ago, but was leased to the Crown for military purposes. "Few incidents," as an Eng? lish exchange remarks, "could speak more eloquently of the stability of Eng? lish institutions, and tho law-abiding nature of Englishmen and their respect ' for the rights of property, than that there should be an unbroken continuity of posessions from the time of Alfred the Great to that of Queen Victoria." A seventeen-yeur-old boy in Paris re? cently induced a companion of eleven years of age to steal nine hundred francs in gold, and then strangled him, threw 1 him into the Seine, and then walked off with the money. He was sentenced to twenty years in the galleys, "having es? caped the death penalty," wo are told, "on account of his youth." That boy wasn't voneruble for his years, certainly, but that he was as good material for as pretty a little hanging as could have been furnished by any sexagenarian in France, nobody should pretend to deny. The .Miles' Alarm Monet Drawer, is an article almost indispensable to mer? chants. Being capable of a variety of] combinations, and simple in its construc? tion, it recommends itself to merchants iui an important part of their store fix? tures. Till-tapping has became so pre? valent that an ingenious arrangement like that of the Miles' Money Drawer is indeed a necessity. They are sold by Messrs. Fairbanks ?fc Co., 311 Broadway, New York, and the. hardware trade geu?? raliy.?-Veto Jork Repress, March ISM. Petitions in favor of hanging a con? victed murderer are not so familiar to the {mblic as sentimental appeals in his be lalf, but that such things do occur, is pointedly demonstrated in Boston. Efforts having been made to procure the pardon of Jesse Pomeroy, tho boy mur? derer, by petitions signed by ladies, a delegation of ladies, numbering about twentyifive, waited on the Governor and urged the execution of the young barba? rian, as a measure of safety to society. When a man comes home and tries to bolt his door with a sweet potato, pokes tho fire with the spout of a coffee-pot, at? tempts to wind up tbo clock with his boot-jack, tries to cut kindling-wood for the morning fire with a paper-knife, takes a cold potato in hand to light him to bod. and profers sleeping with his hat and boots, you may reasonably infer thut ho has _bocn making the acquaint? ance of some very friendly people. It is said that at a recent temperance meeting in Illinois, a leading clergyman who refused to sign tho customary pledge, which was rather too stringent "for him, was permitted to sign one which would allow him to "oat and drink to the glory of God." The amount of "glory of God" concealed in a quart of ten-cent whiskey is a thing, some folks think, which no "leading clergyman" can afford to Bee wasted. The following is one of the sweet little ditties of tho Western spelling-school: O, lead my infant feet to walk Into the spelling-school; Let other children sneer and laugh At nuthographio rule. But me that better way will lead Till perfectly I spell; So may I shun the path that loads To where Josh Billings feU. A Tax on Bachelors.?A bill has been made the special order in the State Se? nate of Tennessee containing the follow? ing seotion: 4 'That baohelorism is hereby declared a privilogo, and overy male in? habitant of this State over thirty years of age, being of sound mind and enjoying good bodily health, remaining unmar? ried after tne 1st of May, 1875, shall pay a fine of ten dollars annually." An editor must be stirred up to hia vory dregs to be compelled to read his own files. Tho editor of the Cleveland Herald has been doing it upon some sub? ject connected with the Bender subject. Every one of his files from 1855 down ! That he has been ablo to do this and live, is something worthy of inquiry on the part of tho medical fraternity. Talk about a doctor taking his own medicine! A mother-in-law has sent a communi? cation -to a Milwaukee magazine, de? nouncing1 "the vile rabblo of coarse, low? bred journalists," who make paragraphs About men's wives' mothers. We'll bet tho woman keens her son-in-law within the traces.' Perhapa sne et en stood over the poor devil and made him write that com? munication for hot. Mr. J. :B. Ott't-n, of Charleston, died suddenly, on the 21st, from apoplexy. i A few years ago the authorities of Bos? ton, agreed that thoy v.ould incur no debt which they could pay the same year. As a consequence taxes have been wKlnfjed ten per cent., and more, than 000,000 of the municipal debt has, _ paid.off. In the-meantime many ?matiai improvements have boon made. Other cities might find a lesson tattiis. , Thomas H. Goodwill, d practicing pky-1 eioian of Windsor Township, York County, Pennsylvania, has been arrested and committed to prison there for the seduction of Miss Mary Eichelberger, of Lancaster, and attempting to commit abortion upon her. from the effects of I which she died to-day. The victim was of a good family, was twenty-three years old. The Australian gold production much smaller than the yield of precious metals in the United "States.

Fire Near Lanoley. ?On Friday night, i the barn of Mr. Wm. P. Purdue, two I I miles South of Langley, was destroyed by fire, together with its contents, con? sisting of bacon, corn, fodder and other articles. The fire was the work of an in? cendiary. Mr. John W. Pettigrew. a wealthy New York turfman, died in New York last week. Only a week before his death he expended over $30,000 for three trotters, paying $15,000 for the fast mare Maggie Wilson, $10,000 for Nat Woodcock, and I $6,000 for Tanner Boy.

While Mr. Robert Foster, a ? lantor, was in the field working, some unknown persons entered his house und murdered his wife, Mrs. Lena Foster.
