That was ata timo when passion ruled in the public councils and military power was exertud to silence civil authorit. The temptation wa3 stroog tc with the rushing current, for an in- flamed pa fon was too ready to condone excesses and to applaud oppression. Gen. Hancock's order No. 40, In assuming c of the fifth military district, announced that the right of trial by jury, the habeas corgus, the liberty of tho press, the freclom of speech, the natural rights of persons, and the right of property, must be respected. The principles are the ba- sin of free goyernment, and the pro- climiug of them by Gen. Hancock stands out in striking contrast with the action of his superior who, soon after, rebuked and dreve him from the command for uttering _ sentiments worthy of a eoldier. The soldier, clothed with extraordinary power, voluntarily uncovered befcre the ciril authority, sheathed his sword and te tified his fidelity to the constitution and set an example of obedicnce to law which will pass into history as his strongest claim to distinction. The man who, in the midst of the excite- ment of that stormy period, was cool enough to see his duty clearly and was strong enough to execute it fis Iy, may well be trusted in any cri His letter to Gien. Sherman, recently hrought to light, lifts Gen. Haucock far above the past appreciation of his civil ability. It marks him as one of the wisest of his time, with a states- man’s grasp of mind and the intearity of a patriot, whom no sense of expe- dien uld swerve from his honest convictions. A long and unchecked position of power by any party, leads to extravagance, corruption and looso practices. After twenty years of domination by the republicans, chronlc abuses have become fastened to the public service like barnacles on the bottom of a stranded ship. There is 10 hope of reform by the leaders who have created a sytem of maladminis- tracion and who are interested in per- petuating its evils. Nothing short of the sternest reform gives any promise of effective reform, and the first step towards it is a change of rulers. The government must be got out of the ruts in which it has too long been run. New blood must be infused in the management of public affairs before relief can be expected. The people demand a change and, being in~ earn- est, are likely to be gratified. Yours sincerely, Davip Davis. To Hon. James E. Harvey, Washing- ton City. Base Ball. Special dispateh to The Bee.

Special dispateh to The Bee Loxvox, August 9, 1 a. m.—A Ber- lin correspondent says: Mil tary pre- parations are the order of the day in the Balkan peninsula. The Turl are repairing the fortifications at S. lonica. Troops* continually arrive from Galliopolis, some befng sent norch while others remain to protect the impor t harbors. The Monte- negrius have called on every able-bod- ied The Antivari forts are be- ing_constructed under the superin- tendence of the Russian Col. Count Solohub, a resident for some time at the exposed fort. The Greek govern- ment has invited volunteers from Thessaly and Epitus, but as yet havo come. The signal for war bei expected from the powers,orders ha been given to the border brigands to stop operations until further notice; accordingly the frontler has never en- Jjoyed astate of more ABSOLUTE ORDER AND QUIET than upon the eve of war. Neither are the Bulgarians behindhand in their warlike movements. The lead- ers of the eccret commission of Bul- garia and East Roumelia have met at ‘Tirnova to concert the details of the joint action to begin as socn as the order is given at St. Petersburg. All the leaders, as well as the members of these commissions, being civil and military officers, it is by courtesy that they are callad secret, and their ac- tion is represented a3 distinct from that of their respective governments, co-operating with the cer..ral Pan-Bul~ garian commission at Sophia. There are secondary frateruities in the Ro dopoe Hills, and other localities in Macedonia, pledged with money and arms by Russian vatrons through the ag, ir_East Roumelian com- patriots. The Turkish TROUBLES ARE NoT LIMITED T0 B Itis well known that apart trom the religious hostility common to the Enst, the Armenians, who speak the Turkish language as a second mother | tongue, but very recently, did not be- long to the Ottoman empire, whose trade and_finance they largely con- duct. Things, however, ha changed lately. The porte, for politi- cal ascendancy on the Bosphorus, and for the custing of their commercial competitors, the Greeks, having aroused the Constantinople Armen- ians, numbers of them are now Russians to the core, no endeavors of the porte to brivg them back to their ancient allegiance being of avail. The other day the porte, to curry fa- vor with these novel recusants, ap- pointed Artun Dadisn Bey, one of the richest Stamboul Armeniavs, under secretary of etate in_the hosrd af trade. No sooner did this appoint- ment transpire than the Armenians, who two yeats ago would have con- gratulated themselves upon the eleva- tion of their po-nationalist, assembled in front of hjs house and denounced him as a traifor to their cause. To obviate worsey consequences, Artun, the following day, eolemnly assured the ROPE. | Armenian patriois that, though he might be_rendering commercial ser- vices, ho had no hand in refuting the arquments of the powers. Among the many strange features of the pres- ent criis, it Is one of the strangest that the porte is endeavoring to keop Russia from Coustantinople. ANOTIER BRITISH Loss.

" Batler, who is at his home uth Carolina, on being asked what action he intended to take an abusive letter of Col. Cash, the duellist, which had been addressed to him, and had been_sent, to the pressand published, re- ““Col, Cash’s letter to me shows him to bo a lunaticor a blackguard, and, of course, I cannot notice him in cither capacity. I have done him no harm, and if I had injured him, it ie usual among gentlemen, as a firststep, to ask for an explanation. Tnstead of this, he lis chosen to write me a let- tor by mail which does him more harm than it does me. He is welcome to all the notoriety he may acquira in this vulgar, coarse exhibition of a hard and malicious heart. I have not noticed, and do not intend to mnotice anything he may say.” The animua of the attack made by Cash on Butler arises from Butler’s having written a very strong letter denonncing the ac- tion of Cash in bratally forcing a ducl upon the venerable Judge Shan- non, who was killed by Cash at the first fire. The people generally ap- plaud Butler in his lotter, as they do the Charleston News and Courier for the courago displayed in making war upon the barbarous practice of duel- ling as carried on in some sections of South Carolina. FATHER TO SON. Still a great deal more trouble is expected to grow out of the Cash- Shannon difficulty, that Is, provided Cash is not convicted and sent to prison. Even then it is expectod that his son will take the father's place and challenge at least some of the promi. nent citizens who have denounced, his father. « 1A COTTON RUSTING. Advices from Georgla stato that Dlaok rust has appeared in tho cotton fields. Tt is feared that the plant will ticted seriously by its ravages, but ouly in certain sectlons. With this exception, the crop is doing re- markably well. In several promiment counties in the stats, it fs thought that the crop will not be an_average one, notwithstanding an_increascd average in some sections of the state. The corn crop is turning out badly, and the planters say they will be sat- isfiad if they make a half crop. PROSPEROUS SOUTH CAROLINA. From South Carolina it is reported that the crops generally throughout the state are exceptionally fine, and an abundant harvest of corn is_ex- pected, also s fine cotton crop. Tt is thought that if there is no backset the plant cotton yield will te the largest made for years. It is estimated that many acres will yield twelve to eigh- teen hundred pounds of seed cotton. The oats crop s also reported to be first-class.

Ho was apparently bearing up well as he asked to have some Cal- ifornia grapes_ to-day, declari he was not afraid of them for the day. He held auother interview w his brother-in-law and tears wer scrved rolling down his cheeks while talking with Gardner who married his younger sister. The attending physicians wished to provent any pro- longation of the interview, but Tan ner said he knew his own business and talked on.
