It is a feeling not o alarm, but of indignation, that will bo raised throughout the land by the mili tary order that was issued from tho Wa Department to General Sherman. - New York Sun (Lid. Dem.) Alabaraa gets more and more one sided, Hko the jug handle, as the t'ull re turna come in. Nothing but an imme diate peace with Sitting Buil by a lib eral payraent to him and his braves fo the Custer-butchery, and the promp transfer of the whole army and a ful complement of Gatlin guns, will gwo Hayes more than a township here anc thero in the South ; and, what is worse the North doesn't look much more promising. - Phüadelphia Times (Ind.)

Worse still, the facts of our political history during tho last eight yoars it inake impossiblo for thinking men to imagine that this order has boen issued for no other purpose than that of euforcing the law and securing to every man the free exercise of his rights as a citizeu.
