WEDNESDAY, NOV. 7, 1833. AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. the Demcrat and Republican in their last weeks issues, are received with that hearty appreciation which we trust is unaffected, the one and personal with the other, have surely existed, but the warfare is over now and the sting of the lan- cet thrust to the quick in an hour of heated contest has ceased its pain. We may have been sorely afflicted during the years of our brief exist- once, but it is no more than thous- ands of other mortals suffer and yet jive. However heavy be the hand friends are watching with sympz thizing hearts and cheerful words. Gentleman of the fraternity, we bow in humble acknowledgement ot your ous words that have been spoken. CHANGE OF CHIEF'S. The transter of the office of the commander inchicf of the army of the United States from Gen. Sner- man to Gen. Sheriden, was made in Washington on the tst inst. The ceremony was brief and unostenta- cious. Gen. Sherman retires to private life atter long service m_ be- halt of his country for which he | received ample vay which will not be discontinued now that he is re- —— — sepeeoemrnte tired from active duty. Hs record, though somewhat blemished, is a part of the history of the country. The new commander in chief, Gen. Sheriden’s best recommenda- tions to the present managment ot the Government, liesin the fact or the record he made in driving the Louis- ana Legislature from the Capitol ot the State at atime of peace. Hap- pily for the country we have past the ete at aes period in reconstruction history when epaulets and bayonets controled by intimidation and fraud the destinies ot the South. THERE HAS BEEN NO MOs. Had the parties who contemplated the ‘firing’? of a certam ex-citizen last week been armed with guns in- stead of last years aggs, with murder in their hearts instead of a ttle fresh thunder in their eyes, then the sub- ject would have arrisen to the digni- ty of serious consideration. But as this was not the case, to make it ap- pear so by serious editorial comment is to say the least tarfetched and un- nece + productive of more mus- chief than good. Mob law is usually bad and) must be condemned by the better part ot the community, but to. classify the afore-mentioned occurrance as mob violence is wicked perversion of English besides a wanton impu- tation upon the goo! name ot our people Communities sometimes adopt measures to get rid of a worth- less citizen which, if put to strict con- struction might be a tritle vicious, but what the law suffers mn such cas- es the communicy gains Butler, nor will there be, and we trust the outside world will not be mislead by some things that have been said reflecting that way. —_ are treated to a servitude almost as bad as Atrican slavery was in the to if a girl, whose salary is but $3.50 an her work she is torced to consent H to one of two alternatives, either to quit work—which means starvation— or submit to corporal punishment.
