don't mean to intimate that the old bachelor is t_j

peat, he's a poor critter. He don't live here; h
suly stays. He ought to. 'poiogize, on behalf of
bis parieuts, for bein' here at all. The happy married man dies in good style at home, surrounded
by his weeping wife aud children. The old bachelor dou't die at all—he sorts of rota away, like a

" That," said the landlord, " is the stage. Sixteen able-bodied citizens lias lately bo't the stage

I saw that each stage-driver carried a latter in
his left hand.

"'It's quite proper you should eat a little suthm'

"A blessin," be cried ; " a blessiu on the bed of

*■ Wbieh his name is Gilson! He is a first family of Boatou," said I.
This is a specimen! of how things was goin' in
my place of residence.
A few was true blue. The schoolmaster was
'em. He greeted nm warmly. He said I
Skim to tbose shores. He said I had a mas-
id. It was gratifying be said, to see lhat
tntelleek stalkin in their0midst onct more. I bave
before bad occasion to notice this scboolinastec.
He ia evidently a young man ol far more than
ord'uary talt'Uls.
The schoolmaster proposed wo should git up
a mass meetin.' The umetin' was largely atteud-
We held it iu the open air, round a roarin'
bonfire.
The schoolmaster was the first orator. He's
pretty good on the speak. Ho also writes well,
hia composition bein'seldom marred by iugarm-
matticisms. He said thia inactivity surprised bam
"Wbat do you expect will como of this Isind of
doin's i JVihtl fit ."
" Hooray for Nihil!" I interrupted. "Fellow-
citizens, let's give three cheers for Nihil, the man
who fit!"
The schoolmaster turned a little red, Ital r
peated—" Nihil Jit."
"Exactly," I Baid. "Nihil fit. Ho wan't a
strategy feller."
" Our venerable friend," said the schoolmaster,
smiliu' pleasantly, " isn't posted in Virgil,"
" No, I dou't kuow him. But if he's a able-
bodied maim he must stand a little draft."
The schoolmaster wound up iu eloquent style,
and the subscriber took the stand.
I said tbe crisis had not only cum itself, but it
had brought all its relations. It has cum, I said,
with a evident intention of makiu' us a good long
visit. It's goin' to take off its things aud slop
with us. My wife says so too. This is a good
war. For those who like tbis war, it's just such a
kind of war as they like. I'll bet ye, My wife
says so too. If the Federal army succeeds in takin?
Washiugtou, and they seem tobe advancin' that
way pretty often, I shall say it ia strategy and
Washington will be safe. And that noble banner,
aa it were—that banner, aa it were—will be a emblem, or rather, I shaold say, that noble banner—
as it were. My wife says so too. [I got a little
mixed up here, but they didn't notice it. Keep
um.] Feller citizens, it will be a proud day for
this Republic wheu Washington is safe. Giouces
ter, Massachusetts, is safe. Gen. Fremont ia there.
No danger of Gloucester, Massachusetts, as long
Gen. Fremont is there. And may the day be
not far distant when I eat* say the same of Washington, But if it is saved, it will ba by strategy.
Vermont will be safe. Geo. Phelps is cousin' home.
Let us all rejoice that Vermont is about to be safe.

New York, November 11.—Tiie Richmond Whig
ofthe 8th, apeaking ol the recent Northern e.leo-
tionfi, says that ihey show plainly tbat the tide is
all one way, and tbat agaiust Abraham .Lincoln
aud bis rampart was- party. If electioneering asseverations aud appeals to tbis party oouH be cred
ited, this success of the Democracy is about equal-
to a deolaia'tion of peace :. but they are not to be
credited, and we are not permiled to take that com
fort to our bosom?, We have reason to hope that
wiih the Democrats iu Congress and, a Republican
Administration, tliey wiil regard euch other as men
who aro ia duobt v/hetlier to-morrow, tliey may
not be cutting each otber la, throats. Tbe people
mean by this remarkable revolui
tiieir deep dissatisfaction, and also decree that important changes must be made. Having found their
strength, we may uow expect Hint tliey will now
speak their sentiments with boldness, whicb they
had not dared to do before.

But my heart bleeds partic'ly for Washington. My
wile says so too.
There's money enough. No trouble about money.
They've got a lot of first-claes bank-nole engravers at Washington (.which place, I regret to say, is
by no m/aans sale) who turn out two or three eords
of money a d-ay—good money, too. Goes well.
;These bank-note engravers make good wages. I
expect they lay up properly. They are full of
Uuion sentiment. There vs considerable Unlet
sentiment in Virg'umy, more specially among tin
honest farmers of the Shenandoah Valley. My
wife says so, too.
Then it isn't raoney we want. But we do waut
merit, and we must bave them. We must carry a
whirlwind of fire among the foe. We must crush
the ungrateful rebels who are poundiu' the God*
desa of Liberty over lhe head with elung-shota.an*

Betsy says ao too.
This war han't been too well managed. We all
know that. What theu ? We are all in the same
boat—if the boat goes down we go down with her.
Ileuce we must all fight. It ain't no use to talk
about what caused the war. That's played out.
The war 13 upou us—upon us all—and we must all

are tryin' to kick over the Republic ? Betsy, my !
wife, says fo, too.
I have great confidence in A. Linkin. The old
fellow's heart is in ihe right place, aud his head is"
clear. There's biu sura queer doin's by some of
'his deputies—civil aud* military—but let it pass.
We must save the Union. And1, don't let us wait
to be drafted. The Republic is our mother. For
God's sakei.don?t let us stop lo draw lots to see

Ileiglvt of Absurdity.
The editor of the Stockton Independent, wh
especially distinguished for his frequent efforts in
that direction, has finally reached the summit o
absurdity in the following declaration :
'■ The New York Tribune has constantly main
tained through this fall's political campaign that
Seymour and the Woods were from the beginoin
ofour troubles, the friends nnd backers of the
rebels. We have never beheld a more spirited
fight than was made by that journal, in belialt of
tbe Union, against the so-called democratic partj."
Horace Greeley battling for the Union against
Horatio Seymour! Horace Greeley, the lifelong
abolitionist, who has vied with Garrison and Phillips in denouncing the Union as a " compact with
hell ;"'■ who exclaimed, in relerence to the American flag—'" Tear down the flaunting He j" who has
e and agaiu wished for a wall of fire or an impassable gulf to separate the free from the slave-
holding States ; who would not give up the Cbi-
cago platform for fifty snch Unions ; who defended
State secession as a right and denied the authority
of the Federal Government to coerce a State iuto
snbniis=ion to the Union-—this same Horace Greeley is now held np to the admiration of Union
loving men as the champion of the Union and the
embodiment of republican principles! Horatio
Seymour has ever been the political antagonist of
Greeley in nil hiYpHnciples and declarations, as
he is now. Can any one tell us when they reversed
positions? Can a single argument in favor ol the
restoration of the Union be pointed out in the Tribune—ox: a sentence or sentiment uttered by Horatio Seymour in favor of secession? We cau
scarcely imagine a case which would present the |
absurdity of republican professions in bo strong a
light as this comparison between Seymour and
Greeley.— San Joaquin Republican.
Pnrlc KflcclMiilly Freexes Fremont Ont.
According to every principle oT manly honor,
social ethics, and human gratitude. Park phould
be the firm and devoted friend of Gen. Fremont
Fremont bas bestowed wealth, position and repu
tation upon bim; he ban loaded him with favors,
lilted him Irom a business in which he was an adventurer, and shone only by chance, to a proud
prominence before the world, as ths manager of
tbe famous Fremont minep. With all these incentives to prove true to Fremont, one wnuld naiur-
ally conclude tbat Parle mu«t be his faithful
Achates—that should Fremont take snuff Par[-
would sneeze. It was because we knew that Pad-
rested under tho most extensive obligations to Fre
mont that we classified him among Senatorial as
pirants 39 a firm friend ot the fallen General. Had
he been a man ofuoble instincts, snch a classification would not only have been true but to bin
credit. But Park, it seeing, is made of different
..tuff; gratitude does not belong to his composition. Whilst tbe master is abroad, the unfaithful
steward takes advantage of his absence to become
possessed of bis property by a trick — a trick none
the less discreditable because it it enveloped wiih
the sanctity of the law. When Fremont left this
State for Europe, he appointed Treanor W. Park
his agent to manage his business and protect his
title in the celebrated Mariposa estate. How faith,
fully he has fulfilled his trust let the sequel show.
Before leaving, Fremont executed a mortgage for
§450,001) to secure Park and otber parties for certain indebtedness incurred. Since that time Park
bas been in possession of tbe mines and property of
the Mariposa estate.
His short experience as manager doubtless convinced him that the estate was too good a thing
to belong to his benefactor, and hence we find that
a judgment wa* procured some time since by a man
named Heap, against Fremont, on which execution issued, and Fremont's reversionary interest in
the Mariposa estate was sold at Sheriff's sale and
purchased by Park. The transaction was kept,
quiet until yesterday wben the time for redemption expired. Is not this a beautiful commentary
on the morals ofa man who aspires to the magnificent position of U. S. Senator lor California?
If he would play Judas with the man who had
loaded him with benefits, what would he not do to
betray the interests of a State which had sent him
to Washington to represent ber in the most important branch of the Federal Legislature? If
greed of gain ia his ruling passion and principal
characteristic, how plentifully he could line his
pockets by trading his influence as United Stales
Senator for the advancement of monopolies, for
the procurement of contracts, for fhe million purposes of corruption which tempt venal public men
at Washington. The worst feature of this transaction, however, is yet to be told. Fremont has been
kept so completely ignorant of (he legal proceedings referred to above, that instead of writing to
Park relative to ibe position of liis Mariposa interests, be recently wrote a letter to a third party,
beseeching him to make inquiry and send him
whatever information he could gather. This shows
that while poor Fremont was losing laurels in the
field, his agent here was playing a double game
which has resulted in his total pecuniary ruin.—
This, then, is tbe^ret of Park's enmity to Fremont. He hates him with that most implncable
of all hatred—tre hatred which emanates fiom a
consciousness of having wronged a benefactor.—

HEI.KASEOF REV. JIDSONI). ItEIVKOICT,
This clergyman, who was arrested 60 the charge
of preaching a disloyal sermon—who was stibse-
quenity discharged by Judge Hall, only to be arrested again in defiance of law, and taken to Wash
inglon — was discharged in thatcity, on the 2d insf,
upon faking the oath of allegiance. This case will
rank among the Causes eefebre of our history. Ar'
rested in geflaoee of the laws for no crime kOOwn
to the laws, defended by a Republican lawyer, discharged hy a Untied States judge, kidnapped from
the pf reefs of BnjTalo \,y a jJ.-.-pnlilif an marshal, under the order of a Republican administration, and
brought to Washioirton to be discharged again tip-
on taking the oath ot allegiance j everything about
the case is curious nnd noteworthy. Why Mr.
Benedict was arrested at al! is the greatest mafvel
of all. It was the very wantonness of power to do
itatall.-.V. V. U-'.n-hl.
Rehkls' PBoWBtr int Washinstos.—OrdeM haffl
been issued directing the occupation for Govern-1
ment purposes of the property in Washington city
of persons known fo be In the service of tbe rebel
government, as follows : Five houses belonging to
Commodore French Forrest, of fhe rebel navy, two
houses on Four—and-a half street, near PennSyl-
"n"T" —nue, the properly of Dr. Cornelius Boyle,
bouse belonging to Dr, Garnet, on Ninth
street, near K House on New Jersey avenue, occupied as the Coast Survey Office, the property of
Wm. R. Smith, member of the Rebel Congress
from Alabama. House (nearly opposite the last
mentioned) on the same street, the property of ex-
Sixth Auditor of the Treasury, Wm. F. Phillips.
House on south B. street, Capitol Hill, the prop-
erfy of Captain Dunnington. House on Maryland
avenue, owned by a Mr. Clark, now in service in
Richmond. House owned by Frank Hanna, cor-*
ner of south A. street and New Jersey avenue.
The Federal Rbtc/i_sb at PerryviLt-E.—Says
the Cincinnati Gazette:
The various statements about the battle at Per*
ryville having been brought on contrary to BuelFa
orders, and about arrests growing out cf It, etc.,
have, aB near ae we can gather from all Bources,
this foundation I Tbe army was moving on Perry-
ville in (hree corps, hy three different roada, expecting Bragg's army would make a stand tbere.
McCook had the entire column, and of Course Was
not expected to do more than feel of the enemy
until the othei^corps were in position for the com*
bincd operation. But. McCook exponed his corpa
in such a way that Bragg attacked and repulsed it
with heavy loss, before (he other* were within supporting distance. The baftle seems to have been
more distinguished for the want of generalship
than any in the war—and tbat is saving much.
Aside from the division of Gen. Roasean, who handled it well, and bore the brunt of battle, there
Was an absence nf management. Although tbe
fight was a protracted one, the whole corps was not
got into action, uor wns Gen. Buell apprised of it,

was the sacrifice of our mDn, and the safe With-'

Lob Angeles, June 14, 1862.
A Wail from Ex-Govern'or Lowe of Mary-
sd.—E.Louis Lowe, formerly Governor of Mary,
land, wrote along letter to the Richmond Dispatch
on tbe25th of September, deprecating the censure
cast by the rebels upon Maryland for her failure to
into the arms of Lee, and requested a " suspension of judgment.7' He declares thut the people of Maryland are all rebels, ready to join the
South, but kept under by fear of Federal bayonets
andthe lack of support from tbe rebel armies;
and in one passage thus indulges in a fling at Gen-
Lee for his sudden evacuation of the State ;
"Consider that the people of Maryland never
had arms or ammunition ; that for fifteen months
their houses have been searched, and their private '.
arms taken from them ; that they have not been
permitted to hold meetings, public or private \
that they have been completely isolated and constantly subjected to the most vigilant espionage ;
that no effort at organization cnnld possibly be
made ; that in this condition of things our army
suddenly appears in a remote part of the State, and
as quickly disappear*. Surely, Bir, no reasonable
man could expect an uprising of the people of
Maryland under such circumstances."
What Does it Mean, if True?—The New York
Tribune of a recent date has the following : " It
is said that the Secretary of War and the Com-
mander-inchief(General Halleck) now refer all
inquiries nbout matters and movements in the. army
of the Potomac directly to the President, Mr. Lincoln haviug taken special and excluBiv
that army. What does it mean—if tru
fliay
rmy of the
kind of property
It is a mistaken idea
aste. Away from the
es. the crops are as large and
the farmers as prosperous, as they were before the
war. I have visited during tbe last two weeks
all ofthe principal localities in the valley formed
by the Bull Run and Blue Ridge mountains^-trav-
elingfurthe most with small forces over unfrequented routes. To one who has heretofore formed
an opinion of the condition of affairs in Virginia,
by following the worn-out track of the armies, the
change iu the appearance of everything forms
remarkable contrast, The valley to which I have
relerredis one of the richest grazing sections of Ihe
State. The hills are covered with caftle, and
stacks of htiy and fodder are everywhere conspicuous. Large flock? of sheep browse on the side
hills, and the woods and farm yards are filled with
swine. Gorn, wheat *vid oats fill the granaries to
overflowing, and instead of their being any indication ofthe people starving, they are, on the contrary, sleek and fat, and talk treason boldly. In
this oue valley alone an immense crop of meat
cerials has been and is now being raised for the
Rebel army. Gen. Lee, it is well understood here
is only holding out at Winchester until he can
send South the immense products of ihe valley of
the Shenandoah and its sister valleys, and then hi
will have uo further use for his present, position.—
For (he last few weeks the Rebel supply traini
have heen running regularly and full toward Rich
mond, instead of Lee's army, as is generally supposed.
The PEN-xsYrvAxiA LEOiatATCRB.—The entire
returns ol the recent election in Pennsylvania for
members of the Legislature have been received.—

NEoro Equality.—Tl.e New York correspondent of the San Francisco Call, eives the following
nteresting sketch of the first fruits of negro equal'
ity-:
The colored people are getting quite beside
themselves with jey over the new emancipation
policy of the Government, and of course tbe untruly ones behave themselves accordingly. Soma
of their preachers, I see, already announce that
this is hut the first in a series of events designed
by Heaven to elevate them lo a level with tho
white race, and (hen mingle the two on a bnsis of
a perfect social equality. This and similar doc^
trincs moke some of the baser sort of negroes wild
enough to get drunk, wander the streets and fight,
stab, and otherwise injure tbe white men tbey encounter. Over in Brooklyn, the other night, five
such black fellows wandered about to " horsefly'-1
tlieir neighbors—that is, to amuse themselves by
slappinjrin the face any white man ihey might
chance lo meet whom they ihought tipsy, asleep*
or iiiiahln to resist. Tbey soon got into a row
with three Irish laborers, stabbing all of them and
killing one. They were subsequently arrested,
when one of tbem betrayed bis accomplices and
confessed the whole truth. Of course the Irish
population are greatly incensed, anrl it will be
difficult by and by to keep tbem from retaliating
on the negroes en masse. The riot in Brooklyn a
few weeks ago waa between the Irish and the ne-
gro"s. One of the latter, it was said, had insulted
the wife of one of the former, and the leer talionis
was put in force at once. To add to tbe trouble
over th<>re. a negro was arrested yesterday on
board of n canal boat in an endeavor to horribly
outrage the person ofa young Irish girl, a servant
who was sleeping In the cabin. A private watchman, alarmed by her shrieks, rushed on board juet
in time to reseflfl her ri il catch the negro. There
is trouble brewing In this matter. The negroes aro
too impatient fur the mileuium Ihey hope to wit-

election news from t'ie Kast, the Republicans of
this city spiked the cannon, expecting never to
bave any further use lor it themselves, and unwil-

This is a specimen! of how things was goin' in my place of residence. A few was true blue. The schoolmaster was 'em. He greeted nm warmly. He said I Skim to tbose shores. He said I had a mas- id. It was gratifying be said, to see lhat tntelleek stalkin in their0midst onct more. I bave before bad occasion to notice this scboolinastec. He ia evidently a young man ol far more than ord'uary talt'Uls. The schoolmaster proposed wo should git up a mass meetin.' The umetin' was largely atteud- We held it iu the open air, round a roarin' bonfire. The schoolmaster was the first orator. He's pretty good on the speak. Ho also writes well, hia composition bein'seldom marred by iugarm- matticisms. He said thia inactivity surprised bam "Wbat do you expect will como of this Isind of doin's i JVihtl fit ." " Hooray for Nihil!" I interrupted. "Fellow- citizens, let's give three cheers for Nihil, the man who fit!" The schoolmaster turned a little red, Ital r peated—" Nihil Jit." "Exactly" I Baid. "Nihil fit. Ho wan't a strategy feller." " Our venerable friend" said the schoolmaster, smiliu' pleasantly, " isn't posted in Virgil" " No, I dou't kuow him. But if he's a able- bodied maim he must stand a little draft." The schoolmaster wound up iu eloquent style, and the subscriber took the stand. I said tbe crisis had not only cum itself, but it had brought all its relations. It has cum, I said, with a evident intention of makiu' us a good long visit. It's goin' to take off its things aud slop with us. My wife says so too. This is a good war. For those who like tbis war, it's just such a kind of war as they like. I'll bet ye, My wife says so too. If the Federal army succeeds in takin? Washiugtou, and they seem tobe advancin' that way pretty often, I shall say it ia strategy and Washington will be safe. And that noble banner, aa it were—that banner, aa it were—will be a emblem, or rather, I shaold say, that noble banner— as it were. My wife says so too. [I got a little mixed up here, but they didn't notice it. Keep um.] Feller citizens, it will be a proud day for this Republic wheu Washington is safe. Giouces ter, Massachusetts, is safe. Gen. Fremont ia there. No danger of Gloucester, Massachusetts, as long Gen. Fremont is there. And may the day be not far distant when I eat* say the same of Washington, But if it is saved, it will ba by strategy. Vermont will be safe. Geo. Phelps is cousin' home. Let us all rejoice that Vermont is about to be safe.
