iaji jg Cl)f piiili) Journal OGDENSBURG, MAY 28, 1810. gSVPrleeFtv* Cents. slnsi«eopy._ Gen. Sherman as a Letter 'Writer. Ever since reading General Sherman's famous I reply to the Ha; or and Common Council of Atlanta, Georgia, wo have been impressed with the belief that as a letter writer bis success was only equalled by his ability to handle a large army in an enemy's country. This impression has recently been confirmed by the appearance of another note from the hero of the \March to the Sea.\ A number of philanthrophio gentle- neb, shocked at the severe measures which Col. Baker found it necessary to adopt towards the Piegans, took it into their heads to hold a meeting in New York city, and agree upon some plan of settling the Indian question more in consonance with their humantarian feelings. The General found it impracticable, with his duties elsewhere, to be present, and therefore wrote a letter which we give below. It was addressed to the chairman of the proposed meeting: DEAR SIR—I have your note of May 18th, and regret I cannot be present. I doubt not the generous feeling of the good people interested in this meeting, but it does seem to me that they accomplish little or no good. Our Indian question is a practical one, and not one o f mere leeling ; and BO far as my observation extends, the wild Indians are rather damaged than benefited by the conflict of extreme opinions which these public meetings. engender. The real question can only be discussed fairly where the Indians are, and if yon will adjourn your meeting to Fort Sully, where you can see the Indians them- selves, I will feel strongly inclined to attend the adjourned meeting. With) sentiments Of the utmost respect, I am truly yours, W. T. BHBHMAN, General. This proposition has a practical air. Men who never saw, heard or smelt a n Indian, and living a couple of thousand miles away from the field of his operations, and totally unconscious of the nature of the outrages committed upon the . border settlers, cannot fully comprehend the Indian question; yet we doubt if they could have ever discovered this fact without the aid of General Sherman's letter. We hope it will have the effect to kill the maggot of error that has in some way got into their heads. To the Point. Fernando Wood said the other day, that it was a great mistake to confound navigation with commerce. A great deal haB been said about the decline of commerce, when in fact there Is no-such decline, and it is only meant that the carrying business has passed out of the hands of American shipowners and sailors. This transfer began some fifteen years ago, and has kept pace with the increase in the number of iron steam- ships put afloat by the enterprise of other na- tions. One of the beneficial results of the War was the sale of our wooden ships. To retain our lost supremacy in the carrying trade, we have now but to build better iron steamships and car- ry for less money than other nations do. If we are not prepared to do this, we might as well stop talking about the best method of remedy- ing the evil of a lost carrying business. Dastardly Outrage in Oneida Count v. The Borne Sentinel gives the following account of a devilish outrage perpetrated at Higgins* ville, Oneida County: \A week ago last Saturday night a most das- tardly outrage was perpetrated at Higginsville by four villains living in the vieinty, known as Jack Btitt, Jack Tice, Phillip Lore and John Brodbeck. They drank until grossly intoxicat- ed, then proceeded to the house of Mr. Snyder, and after stoning it a short time burst in the door, put Mr. S. outside the house, and securing the door on the inside found the inmates, Mr. Snyder's aged mother and his wife, whom they bound with bed-Cords securely, then compelled the poor women to submit to their lustful de- sires, repeating the crime at intervals during their stay.- After satisfying their brutal lust the ruffians departed. The alarm was a t onoe given, and officer Dennis Meegan succeeded !n tracing Britt and Tice to a piece of woods; here - the trail was lost. Brodbeck started for New York to take his boat, and a telegram was sent at once ordering his arrest, so that ere this the despoiler of female virtue is perhaps in the clutches of the law. The others may escape for a time, but their ultimate capture is hoped for.\ The good people of Higginsville should have turned out in force, taken the law in their own hands and hung the wretches to the first tree.— The people of Fort Scott, Kansas, would have dealt .the villains justice without loss of time. t^TThe Waterbury (Connecticut) American, as a preparation for the coming hot weather, promises a \red-hot Sunday school book\ to every boy who kills a dog. {2g\Our Canadian friends have little idea What going to war meauB. \Some of the men of the Royal Canadian Rifles,\ says the Toronto Globe, \grumble at the sleeping accom- modations, and one, of them made a very pitiful complaint yesterday afternoon to the Adjutant, to the effect that on the previous night he had slept on the floor without even a straw mattress under him—treatment to which he had not been accustomed. He then told the Adjutant that unless he got a bed he would leave the bar- racks.\ ,_^ A POSBR.—' 'Why,\ said Miss Anna Dickinson, on one occasion, stepping forward to the foot- lights and commencing a lecture with a lofty flight of eloquence. \Why was I born?\ She paused, and a thrill ran through the audience.— Again the rich tones of the , winsome woman rolled over the expectant people as she repeated . the question, \Why was I born?\ And again she paused, that the due impression might be made upon her hearers before she answered her own question. \Why Was! born?\ sheaeked once more in touching and almost painful ac- cents, when a wicked boy in the gallery shouted, \I give it up !\ J2g~The Kewburyport Herald states that two unmarried sisters, Ruth and Hannah Adams, died on Saturday night of lung fever, in Oldtown. They were aged respectively 11 and 75 years, and had always lived together, their deaths oc- curring within a few h/mrs of each other in the same house where they were born and had lived all their lives. They had been nurses in many families, and were widely known and liked. - - <m* - •—H jgg^Nicholas Strauss, a cigar maker of Rome, drew his wages at 2 P.

The Execution oi Goicouria. - The World's correspondent writing from Ha- vana on the 11th inst, gives the following ac- count of the elocution of the Cuban Geneva! Goioouria: The execution of General Bomingo Goicouria on laBt Saturday is yet a leading subject of con- versation and discussion in the City of Havana. I have additional partioulavs as to his capture and execution, that I think may not prove un- interesting to your readers, particularly as the unfortunate old man they relate to was so 'well known in your city. When captured. General Goicouria had been on Guajaba Key nearly five days, and most of the time had had nothing more than land crabs to eat, and had been without water for nearly twenty-four hours. He became separated from the companions who landed up- on the Key withhim two days before his cap- ture, they having gone to search for water, and probably were afterwards unable to find their way back to him. When the Spaniards landed their troops they formed them into skirmishers, and thoroughly secured the Key, which is about nine miles long, and from one to three wide, has a few trees, broken rooks, and a thick under- growth. Twice the skirmishers passed very near to General Goicouria without seeing him, so well did he keep himself hid, and they were preparing to give up the search, when two sail- ors, who had lingered behind, noticed the gener- al he having changed his position, believing all dangers gone. The two sailors immediately rushed upon him, when he in dcBpair at having been Been, and knowing all hopes of life to be over, attacked them with sticks—having loat his piBtol a few days previously—and knocked one of them down, asking to be killed, but was in turn knocked down and secured. When over- powered he at once gave^his tvue name and rank. INTIKVIEW WITH DE RODAS. , Tou know that General Goicouria was brought after his capture to Puerto Principe, where he was confronted by General Rodas. In this inter- view he stated that he knew the Spaniards would take his life, and that he was at death's door, but he had no regrets to express, and gloried in the thirty years' support he had given to the Cuban cause. He gave the names of those who had landed from the boat with him upon the key, and added that they were well armed, and if met would sell their lives dearly; but he be- lieved they had escaped to the mainland. In this he was probably correct, for all the after searches of the Spaniards upon the key have resulted in finding no one. Only a small dog, which one of the party owned, has been met, and in pure wantonness the Spaniards killed the poor animal. General Goioouria also told General Rodas that he had intended leaving the-island with Gener- al Jordan, but was prevented from so doing by President Cespedes, who retained him on busi- ness, and even offered him the position vacated by General Jordan, but he (Goicouria) declined, knowing that his seventieth year and other attend ant infirmities unfitted him for the position. Then President Cespedes charged him with an impor- tant commission to Mexico, and it was whilst on his way to discharge it that he was intercepted by the Delmater gunboat, Soldado, forced on to Guajaba Key, and then captured, his greatest error having been his failure to destroy the doc- uments he had in a valise, and which, when found by\ the Spaniards, placed 1 \ them upon his track. ' Some of the Spanish papers claim that he also told the Captain-General that the Cubans of New York were being deceived by the insurg- ents ; that, having seen the true state of things, he had become disgusted, and was leaving for Mexico, there to live i n peace. I have good grounds for declaring there is no truth in the -claim—that nothing of the kind was said. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. ROME, WATERTOWN AND OGDKNS. BURG, R. R. 1870, SUMMER ABRANGIHENT. 1870.

(my4d2w) ARRIVAL AT HAYAIU. On the way from Nuevitaa to Havana General Goicouria freely engaged in conversation with many of the passengers of the steamer he was on, warmly defending the Cuban cause, and hoping for its ultimate triumph. As for his personal fate he declared himself indifferent -, that he had already lived the three score and ten years allotted by the psalmist as the term of life. He was landed in Havana in an unex- pected direction, and hurried to prison through back streets, in order to save him from the in- sulting remarks of the thousands of Spaniards who had assembled on the wharves and on O'Beilly and Prado streets to see, him. Tou know that almost as soon as he had reached the prison a drum-head court-martial was assembled to try him. Only the identification of his per- son was required, and then the question of pun- ishment was taken up. One of the most brutal of the members of the court wanted him tied to the tail of ahorse and dragged through Ihe streets until dead and torn to pieces, whilst an- other brute asked that lie be tied to a stake and then stoned to death by the populace. Both of these barbarous propositions were voted down, and death by the garrote, the punishment of criminals, resolved upon, the execution to take place the next morcang, Saturday, at eight A. M., as it did. THE DECISION Of THR COIJRT. General Goioouria was not at all unnerved when told the decision of the court, but stated that he would have preferred being shot; but that he saw the Spaniards were resolved to treat him with the same cruelty they had Shown to his friends Lopez and Pinto, so he would not complain, but would meet death in any. form presented as a brave man should. At two A. M. he was placed in \capilla\ and furnished with a priest, and an hour later he was removed to Castle Principe, a distance of nearly two and a half miles, and was made to walk all the way, the Spaniards, no doubt, reckoning upon break- ing do *n the old man, and so cause him to meet death in a state of physical prostration, but in this they were egregiously mistaken. The Gen- eral's strength and courage literally rose with hia increasing embarassmtnt. The decision of the drum-head court-martial was known through/ oat Havana within an hour after it was rendered, and long before daylight thqre, were several thousand persons assembled around Casllej Principe and on the grounds chosen for tho ex-1 ecution. At five A. si. two nieces of General Goicouria, the Senoritas de Mora, dressed in deep mourning, went to the castle and had a short and last interview with him. Both in. going to and returning from the castle these: ladieB were hooted at and insulted by hundreds: of. Spanish wretches, and several times the ac- tual intervention of a number of Spanish officera,, who were detailed to accompany the Senoritas,, was required to save them from personal mal- treatment, so great was the Spanish rage against! their victim and his relatives. AT THE GARROTE. At f;30 A. M. General Goicouria W&B marched ' from the castle to the place of execution, his hands tied in front of him, and guarded by 300 armed volunteers. He had about eight hundred yards to go, and walked the whole distance wita great composure, twice on the way exchanging salutes with volunteer officers he knew, a smile each time playing over his features. Arrived alt the garrote, h e ascended the platform unaided and with quick steps, and turning towards this people, endeavored to address them, but, as 'old you in my last, the music of two bauds anid the roll of some forty drums were at once suc- CeSBfully employed to drown bis voice. Not- withstanding this, lie labored bard to have him- self heard, opening hia mouth wide, gesticulat- ing with his tied bands, and with his long white beard and hair, nankin pants and vest, and bot- tle-green colored coat, presenting an affecting Spectacle. Nothing that he said was understood, though everybody thiuks his closing words were: *' Viva Cuba, libre ! \ Apparently nettled at the success of the Spaniards in preventing his words from reaching those for whom intended, he resigned himself into the hands of the gar- roter, and was soon despatched, dying without any apparent struggles. Hia body was kept; in the garrote until three P. M., when it was removed and buried in the crimfoaVa graveyard, the au- thorities having refused to give it up to his rela- tives. From 25,000 to 80,000 persons witnessed the execution, and, beyond the mentioned iin- .sults to theSenoritaa de Mori, behaved through- out tolerably .well. This was no doubt greatly due to a proclamation from City Govern< r Roberta urging the people to thus 'act. 'J?he steamer Lloyd Aspinwall ha3 goM to Key West to undergo necessary repairs, so she is now beyond the reach of the Havana Volun- teers, who are not at all pleased at her return to the American' Consul-General. She left with- out her missing Fifteenth Amendment American citizens, the Spaniards holding out that he had taken leg bail from them.
