Yet, for all they appear to agree in sentiment,
one re Governor of bis State elected by tbe
Unionists, and the other is a candidate for
a State office on tbe Democratic ticket. We
here reprint Gen. Slocutn's reply to the offer
to put bim on the Mew York Democratic
ticket. It is dated Vicksburg, August 31st,
1865, and is addressed to John A. Greene,
r. a bitter and uncompromising Democrat:
"I would state that I am in favor of tbe
principles wbich appear thus far to have gov
erned President Johnson with regard to tbe
Southern State', that is, to allow those States
to decide who shall and who shall not be en
titled to the right of suffrage.
" In a lew words, I am in favor of return
ing, at tue earliest practicable period, to a
government of civil law. I believe the true
interests of the country demand a more econ
omical administration of atlairs, and an effort
to reduce tbe national debt, tbe substitution
of civil lor military courts, and a more careful
observance of the constitutional rights of
States and individuals.
"If these views are such as will be en
dorsed by your Convention, and if the Con
vention should nominate me for Secretary of
State, 1 shall accept the nomination."
He is in favor of P-iion.. policy and
the Derub"-',c l,artv nDd !el th, President
.s shown no feeling of affinity for the Dem
ocracy. On tbe other hand, many of that
party continue violently to oppose Mr. John-
eon, and tbe same is true bf a miserably
small section of the Union party,
city of provisions, the coining winter, are still
felt, and tbe question of supplies is engaging
tbe attention of a great number. Not many
of those who went to Montana from tbis side
will return to spend the winter. The induce
ments to miners and settlers are sufficient to
keep most of those who are now in tbat coun
try, there for another season at least.
