Thr Ohio Drmorrallr The Democratic State ConTention of Ohio wae largely attended by the representative men of the party, and its proceedlngs throughout were spirited and enthusiastic. The platform is lengthy, but it is bold, straightforward and aggressive, manfully meeting thequestlons that are agitating the public Mind, and it can not fail to be acceptable to all who regard a radical change in the oondnct of public affairs as necessary to secure reform, retrenchment, permanent prosperity and progress. The nomination of General Honf-crams, for Governor, although unexpected, can not fail to give strength to the ticket. His integrity and patriotism, as well as ability, must be conceded by the Radicals generally. The Cincinnati Commercial thus sums up his military career: " Kosecrans was a brave soldier and a capable General. Some of the best battles of the war were won by him. The first victory, that of Rich Mountain, was his. The bloodiest and completest triumph of the national armies In the Mississippi Valley was his. We refer to the crushing defeat of Van Dorn at Corinth. The most splendid display of personal gallantry by a General commanding an army was his, as he galloped through the fiery tempest at Stone River, restoring the day when his right wing had been beaten. One of the most masterly movements of the war was that beyond Murfreesboro, and there is no doubt that nothing but a fortnight’s rains, sudden, heavy and unprecedented at the season, saved Bragg’s army. Then .there came the fierce battle of Chicamauga, and the misfortune of the second day, and the accident that gave Thomas all the glory of saving the army. The man with such a military record was displaced by General Grant from the mission to Mexico, and the position given to a politician of this .State, who was safely ensconced in South America, while Rosrcrans was gallantly struggling in the face of the armed foe to “save the life of the nation.” The war ended, General Rosrcrans believed that the peace and unity of the country should be restored in reality, and that this could only be brought about by restoring self government to the people of the South. In September last he wrote a letter taking that ground, from which we extract the lollowing: “I believe our free institutions and highest material Interests are in grave peril. I should, therefore, perform a solemn and responsible duty to my fellow soldiers and countrymen who love this nation more than party, by stating what I think the most vital Issue before the people in the approaching Presidential election. "Above all other issues—expenditures, taxation, bonds, ‘greenbacks,’ or anything else—stands that of restoring the people of the Southern States to hopeful, cheerful self-government. “Hestore them this, and as certainly *» the day follows the even, our political stability will be assured, our financial prosperity will speedily follow, the value of property in the South will increase,our public securities will go to a premium, our greenbacks will become par; separate cash accounts for coin and curaency, with all their evils and complications, will disappear from the books of our business men.” Such sentiments are alike creditable to the head and heart of a brave soldier. The Democracy of Ohio not only planted themselves upon a platform that will be acceptable to the people, but they opened the door wide for all to outer who desired to bring about a reform in the administration of the Government: lleaotvrd, That we extend the right hand of lellowshipand recognize aa brethren in a common cause all conservative men not heretofore Democrats, who will unite with us in rescuing the Government from the unworthy bands into which it has fallen. And we have not a doubt but the thousands of Republicans who are tired of the misrule of the party In power, will accept the Invitation and unite with the Democracy in rescuing the government from the perils that beset it. ^ —.— — The election to Virginia—The Beginning oi the Knd. The result of the election in Virginia is a certain Indication of the wiping out of carpot-bagism In the Sou.hern Stales. The success of Wai.kf.r, by an overwhelming majority,is gratiiylng evidence that the sober second thought of the people is resuming its sway, and that hereafter wiser counsels and a better policy will prevail. It is said that more negroes voted for Wai.KKU than whites for Wni.i.s, and this fact confirms what wo have always predicted, that the blacks would eventually vote with the whites to protect their peculiar local or sectional Interests. Sumo of the Radical papers bewail the result in Virginia us a calamity. This view of it satisfies ns, although both ol I lie candidates for Governor were nominally Republicans, that t he Radicals have met witli a Waterloo defeat, It was charged, and without contradiction, that the Intluence of the National Administration was given to Wki.i.s, but even tills powrful aid did not avail him. The revolution that has been inaugurated in Virginia will go through the South. Srxtkr, Republican, will bo elected Governor of Tennessee, over Storks, also Republican, although the latter Is the administration candidate. The latter represents the dead issues of the Republican party, tlie spirit of hate and vindictiveness that would disfranchise the brains of the South to perpetuate a miserable party or partisan ascendancy, while the former, no less Republican than the lat« ter, reflects the more generous sentiment of universal suH'ragc and universal amnesty—or In other .words, the great Republican idea that all good governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. It is the policy ol the narrow minded and bigoted partisans, of which Morton Is a type, to retain power if possible, no matter what burdens are imposed upon the people, or what rights they are deprived of, but the folly of this course is becoming so n|iparent that the people every wliore are placing their broad seal of condemnation upon it. This is the lesson of the recent election In Virginia and the lesson will bo repeated in every election that transpires, until the people are relieved from both the oppression and the oppressors that weigh so heavily upon both private and public welfare. HlllllCIII * IIKtlll'IOf lug. The Had leal papers claim a great deal ot credit for the economy and financial ekill of the Grant administration, because the receipts llius far have been In oxeess of the expenditures. In other words, great credit is claimed for the Administration for results wbieh it could not avoid. The Cincinnati Tunc*, Republican, is of the opinion that the Treasury atatemenls do not muko much of a showing for Radical financiering. It says: “Of course Uoctwki.i, should pay largely on the principal of the debt, since we have ceased our expenditures on the I’actfic Railway, have additional custom duties, have Alaska paid for, have no more expenses on account of the Freedmen's Bureau, have military government discontinued iu seven Htates, there hss been a cessation of extra bounties, and a dimunitiou of general expenditures. Boutwkli. will have nearly $iK),iX)0,000 of additional resources os compared with hi* predecessor.” In fact, we may Inquire, under these circumstances, It Bovtwkll's surplus foots up what It should

be?

oar State Beat. It baa been ftnmd, upon exatnlnetlrm, that the State will be able to redeem about 9800,000 of the Indiana five per cent. State etoeka after the flret inatant, A sufficient ammonnt of innda to pay the semiannual intent has also been transmitted to New York. After these payments, there will remain about 91,000,000 of the principal of the five per cents still un>aid, leaving the entire State debt, on hat account, in round numbers, 91.800,-

000.

A oorreepondent of the New York Tribune, who holds some of onr old internal improvement bonds, which wete not anrrendered tinder the “Butler Bill,” and on which he has received no interest since 1842, and for the psyment of which no provision baa been made by the State, wishes to know If this ia what Indiana calls paying her debts. For answer, we refer him to Governor Baker’s last annual message, in which that question is

discussed at some length.

The "Batler BlH’ r was, in effect, an act of volnntary bankruptcy upon the

part of the State, and those at her creditors who did not then take the benefit of tt, are left to "whistle for their pay.” We don’t say bow honest this is, nor do we expect soon, to be called upon to record a “case of conscience” in the matter of the honest payment of the old bonds not surrendered nnder that bill—Greewr-

burg Standard.

The doctrine of repudiation is virtually justified in wbat the Standard says about the Indiana bonds not surrendered under the "Batler bill,” and which the State refuses to pay. The compromise under that bill was a virtual repudiation of one half of the then debt of the State. The Standard, and it only echoes the sentiment of Baker and the Republican party generally, says that the creditors or bondholders who refused to accept the Butler compromise, are left to "whistle for their pay,” and it seems to be of the opinion that the trusting of the honor , ot the State was folly that ought to be thus punished. That paper says the “Butler bill was, In effect, an act of volunta^r bankruptcy on the part of tke State,” which left the creditors no option in the matter. They had to accept the terms that were offered or lose the whole. When this action is weighed by the standard of morals set up by the Radicals In regard to the sacred character of the public debt—that the last cent of principal and Interest must be paid in gold, although such rigid conditions are not in the bond or contract, it will be found to be repudiation of the rankest kind. The debt of Indiana was contracted upon a gold basis,' yet we are paying both interest and principal in a debased currency. Is not that repudiation? If a compulsory reduction of the debt of Indiana one-half was excusable or justifiable, and tbe people take the ground tbat it was by Indignantly spnrning tbe idea of now paying the old bonds tbat were not surrendered under tbat bill, or nnder the altered circumstances of tbe Htste, booting fairly at the demand for tbe payment of the compromised half of the debt, would not the compulsory reducing of tbe public debt one-half be eqnally moral? Most of tho States, all we believe, are paying the Interest upon their State debts, although they were rontrncted In gold, in greenbacks, a currency some forty percent, less vaieo than gold. How can this action be justified when measured by tbe Radical idea of the sanctity of the public debt? in the first place, Indiana compromised by agreeing to pay one-balf of her debt, and now she Is repudiating one-half of that, by paying the Interest and principal in a debased currency. The politicians of Indiana should never say a word in condamnation of repudiation, until she has purged herself of the crime, and it is by tbat term the Radicals classify repu-

diation.

t enaty OIBrers. The Crown Point Register has been "lifcing the scalps” of the county officers of Lake with the sharpest of knives, cutting into them with the "following sample of oharaes: ” "Lake county pays an amount averaging 91,300 per year for blanks, blank books and stationery, at rates set forth by the following sample of charges, taken from recent bills of Messrs, WUIIam A J. Braden, of Indianapolis: One thousand No. 0 bulfenvclnprs, 9s ,vi. The same envelopes can bo furnished at home lor 93. Two dozen Faber's pencils, 92 73. Can be furnished at home for 92. Two dozen penholders, 92 40. Can be furnished at home for |1. Twenty poll books, April election, 9b> 73. Can he furnished at borne for 9s. Twenty-six shoots lilotting paper, $:'• 73. Can be furnished at home for 91 30. One ream foolscap pa|H<r, |0 S3. Can be rurulsbod at borne for90. One gross penholders (common wooden holders), |s 40. Can be furnished at home

for 94.

Go on, gentlemen; pay your llttlo eleven and a half cents each' for lead pencils at wholesale; pay' your little six cents each for common wooden penholders by tho gross; pay your little oighty-Avn cents cacti for poll books, worth about forty cents. Don’t lie niggardly with your Indianapolis friends—it’s ‘county money. We are receiving statistics from various counties upon the stationery question, which we propose to make public at the proper time. When a county officer pajs from twenty to fifty per cent, more for books and stationery than their worth, It ia fair to infer that he is either a tool or a knave. If the former, he should not have been elected; it the latter, he certainly should not be re-elected. T<r.Mr. Flnnerty, of Illinois, says it seems to be a question whether women are to remain women, or he turned into men. With whom is Ibis a question? We have hoard it mooted nowhere; and, in common with tbe real of mankind, we most decidedly object to the turning oi women into men, unless the men are forthwith turned into women. Whatever happens, let the distinction bo kept up.—CVi cugo Tost. We have no doubt If the question of keeping up distinction was submitted to a vote of women exclusively, that it would carry unanimously. Many ol thorn might wish to be turned into men, but even in that event they would want the distinction kept up, for what would become of woman’s rights, or man’a prerogatives, which are ao much coveted by tbe opposite sex, if there wore no subjects for their exercise? When the whole question is Investigated in all its bearings, tho question of turning either men into women or women into men, will be as vexed aa when it was first originated. aa > y jc-fr The Democrats of Maine have selected General Franklin .Smith as their standard bearer in the cnmlng*contest for Governor. He is thus spoken of by the Rlddeford Democrat; “General Smith is one of tho most able and reliable business men of tho State, and well qualified for the office for which he has been put in nomination. He is a self-made man in the true sense ol the let m; respected and esteemed by all who know him, and the convention did well to select him as tbe standard bearer of tho Democracy, at this important period in the affairs of the State. His well known integrity, eminent business capacity, and fidelity to tbe interests of the country, entitle him to the oouitdeooeof the people.” ^“The Philadelphia Age aaya wo have not surpassed In anything the men ol 1770, except in rapid locomotion. We are not hotter versed In political knowledge, nor in moral or religious truth. Wohave made war ou a vaster scale, and our armies have fought bravely, but nowhere, North or Houth, ia there any instance of resistance by a hasty gathering of citizens from their fields and workshops against successive assaults of tbe beat regular soldiers of the age. Bunker’s Hill has no parallel in our times. We lately read a cotemporary criticism of General Howe's report of it, in an English publication. General Howe praises the valor and persistence of bis troops, and exertions of hit officers—“and all ibla,” exclaims the astonished critic, "was required against an array of American peasants) 7 '

The Demeeratle rmHr. The Louisville Daily Times, the organ of the Workingmen's, or National Labor party, of Kentucky, thus eels forth the aims, tbe purposes and the principles of the Democratic party, the trinmph of which in the direction of public affaira It regards aa not only for the beet Interests of the masses, bnt as an event certain to transpire. The TVmea says: "The abiding hope of tbe people Is in the ultimate triumph of the Democratic party. It Is the only present reliance of the oppreaalve industrial interesta of the oonntry. It ia the only present hope of the preaervation of liberties long trampled by the rode heel of a mighty, but inaane party,whose aim la spoils, plunder, aggrandizement. The people look to It for a remedy of wrongs barely bearable: they look to it for an amelioration of their aiifferlBgs; they look to It for a return ot peacefnl and prosperons times. Its grand old principles are the foundation atones of whatever personal liberty we still possess. Its doctrines are the

stones of

corner stones of a union of hearts and hands—such a union aa we once had and must have again. And look to it aa we do, for the return of a better day, when criminals shall be punished and patriots rewarded—when Federal positions shall no longer thwart penitentiaries of their own, and when bastiles shall no longer hold in chains tbe spirits of freedom—the sons of American llbertv—la it not onr high duty to stand by tbe party which rears the banner of eouallty and justice,

and to strengthen ita hands?

"Whelmed It may be to-day by the floods of passion and folly, but It will spring up again with renewed vigor. Tbe democratic principles ot government can not be extermirated—they will live while patriots live—they will rise again when tbe storm of folly is ended and when reason ascends its peerless throne. The people, especially the great Industrial masses, who are those most grievously oppressed snd robbed, should now more than ever ally themselvea earnestly and zealously with the only party which possesses an organization equal to the emergency. and which has shown a determined purpose at all times and under all circumstances to defend and protect the Interests and rights of the workingmen and people against their oppressors and

robbers.

“The Democratic party urges the adop tion of its sound principles of free trade, by which the numerous monopolies of the East will be wiped out and white sla-

very abolished.

"It demands a uniform Federal currency; the closing up of tbe swindling Nltlonal Banks; the paving off of tbe Federal debt in greenbacks; paper money for the bondholder, and paper money for the mechanic and farmer, and plenty of it; the atopplng of taxation; the dismissal of the great army of office-holders, and a return at once to simple republican practice in the administration of govern-

ment.

"Tnls is a workingman’s plstform, snd it is also truly Democratic. It is the platform of the people, and when they nave learned to know their interests they will no longer hesitate to perform their duty in co-operating with a hearty will in suet tbe ba

It was revived last May nnder a new management, eompzMog Meters. John R. Stuart, of Jeffersonville; D. C. Robinson, and William H. Fry. On Saturday last Mr. Robinson sold out his Interest to Benjamin F. Temple, who goes into tbe concern under the style of J. R. Stnart A Co. An evidence of tbe vigor and energy with which they arepoahing things, is the fact that in the two moutna they have been in charge, two new boats are nearly completed In hull and cabin. The one for Captain Root, will be launched this day, and the other for Captain Reeder, on Saturday next. Immediately on the lannching of these, the keel will be laid fora large aide wheel steamer for Captain Greathouse, and the “Leonona” will go on the ways for repairs. The "Annie Lanrle” was launched on Tuesday, having been thoroughly lepalred and painted. The "John Shalicroas” was launched last week, after a caulking and putting in new bulk heads. A contract has also been made with U. P. Schenck A Son, of Vevay, to build a- model barge one hundred and fittv-flve feet long, thirty-three foot beam, four and a half foot hull, and cargo box thirteen feet high. Under Its present able management the Marine Ship Yard mast succeed. Mr. Stuart comes with a fine reputation from fifteen years experience as a boat builder, and proves himself a man of great executive ability. Backed up with such aids aa Mr. Temple In the mechanical department, and Mr. Fry In the finances—the "power behind the throne”—they know no such word as fall. Youra truly, P. BTATB ITKUB.

"We say to tho people: Be true to yourselves; stand iiytlie only party which can save us from the power of overgrown monopolies, corrupt money centers, a general wreck of republicanism, and a retrogression to Imperialism. "There can bo but two parties In the future. Tho one will be the Workingmen's, or Democratic party, defending tbe Institutions of the Republic. The other will be our enemies, the Imperialists: and Imperialism la tbe child ot tbe Black Republican party. When the suffrage is debased and degraded, when the semi-savage African Is fully enfranchised, and the white man leaves the polls Iu disgust, then we shall hear more of it. aud the Imperialist party (now the Radical party) will defiantly raise Us banner. Mark the progress of events; note the drift of things; examine cause aud effect. To one of these two parties tho Times belongs; and it takes occasion now to say that that party Is tho old time-tried ‘Democratic party of the people, embracing, aa it does, the masses of the wealth-producing people—the real republicans of America. ^ —• Tke West Freslttency. Tho Cincinnati Times, Republican, protests in advance afeainat a Yankee for tbe Presidency, in view of the effort among Eastern men to bring out Boutwkll as a candidate. It aaya "It will be no go. No Eastern man can again become President for many years. The Yankees have been too shrewd fortho West and Mouth in money matters to permit jealousy to allow llieiu a President.” How will the Yankees like this sietlonal feeling among Western Republicans? ^ » The Irish Hepabllemi Farce. We print In this issue of the ledger tbe "platform” adopted by the body recently assembled at Chicago, facetiously culled an "Irish Republican National (‘ouventlon.” The names of one hundred and twenty-two persona were sent up to the .Secretary as delegates, but It was ascertained that many of these were bogus,and their names stricken off, and it is probable that there were not to exceed three or four dozen genuine Irishmen preaeut, the balance of tbe crowd being made up of Chicago Radicals, who went to tbe place of meeting to prevent the affair from bocoming contemptible as well aa farcical. It will be observet) that in aome instances one person is made to do duty as Vice President, Committee on Resolutions and Committee on Permanent Organization. Of all the delegates present it is probable that more than three-fourths are, like Hodnett, who protends to represent Dacotah, ofll.cehoidera qnder Grant, who, for the sake of a little Uadioal pottage, have sold out to a act orpollticians who despise the mass of Irishmen, itlsslgnlffcant that although Chicago, where this “National Oonvefition” held, Is within an iiour’a ride, by p-gil, of tbe borders of Indiana, not a single delegate, or person pretending to be such, was present from this Mtato. Not a single Irishman within the limits of liidfang sought to identify himself with fh)e movement. Some of them perhaps remembered tbe case of the gallant Captain Jack Filun, who, having fought through the war, been wounded, and laid for months in rebel prisons, was a few days ago removed from the petty office of route siient. for the only reason that he was an Irish Democrat. The piuilorm speaks for Itself. It will l>e seen that at the very outset these radicalized Irishmen not only avow themselves in favor of negro but also of woman suffrage. They iiiant themselvea upon the platform of Mrs. Mtanton, Lucy Btone and Musan Anthony. Wo do not believe one Irishman In a thousand desires to see tforaeu dragged Into the political arena, nor are they in ftygr of black suffrage. The members of theGonveqiipn also avow themselves in favor of a high protective tariff, tbe greatest curse wblch ever afflicted the poor laboring man, compelling him to pay double price for every article which he consumes. They sustain a party wblch also imposes an enormous tax upon wblaky and tobapoo. almost tbe only luxuries which the poor map U> able to afford. They pretend to want the country to maintain Mumner's position In regard to the Alabama claims, but at the same time demaud the repeal of the neutrality laws, knowing very well that if tbe neutrality laws are repealed we should nut have a half decent pretext for demanding a dollar of damages against Englandon account of spoliations by rebel cruisers. But It Is unnecessary to pursue the sublect. The effort to Induce Irishmen to identify themselvea with the Radical Republican party has proved a dead failure, and the members or this convention know and feel It.—New Albany Led-

As tbe statement of Ed man Kpangler, lately madp public, together with tbe dismissal from the Government employ of an bumble official, whose crime consisted in having tbe audacity to marry the daughter of a legally murdered woman, have directed again the public attention to that Infamous bloody commission—I take this opportunity of bearing testimony to the entire truthfulness of Spangler’s statement with regard to tbe cruelties and atrocities practiced by Federal officers, or, to speak more plainly, shoulder strapped ruffians, upon both prisoners and soldiers in the dismal prison house on the Dry Tortngss. Having been statloiie<| there, while in tbe military service, for over two years, I had ample op-

portunity ot obsarvation.

With the proceedings of the military commission, which lawlessly sent some to the gibbet, and others to dreary imprisonment, in a pestilential climate, I have nothing to do. Public opinion has set tbe stamp of Infamy upon the court, whose proceedings will forever remain a foul blot npou the pages of onr national history. No sane man believes, for a moment, that, could Mrs. Surratt be brought back to life again to-day, and placed on trial, that a hair of her bead coaid be toacned. Tbe Radical Government, after spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, and with all its influence and corrupt means, could not convict her son. The inference Is plain; If the son, a man, supposed to be a chief actor and varticeps eriminis, is guiltless, how could the mother, a kind, tender-hearted woman, have been guilty of the great crime charged

against her?

Hpangler’s statement is very moderate with regard to the diabolical cruelties practiced at Fort Jefferson. I shall endeavor to supply some omissions. Home time in tbe fall of 1867, a prisoner named Winters, a soldier sent to the fort for some military offense, managed to get bold of aome bad wbiafcy. Toward night he became noisy, and aa the liquid llgntnlng operated on his brain, commenced giving aome trouble as a half drunken man will do. He treated one of the guards, a man named Koffman, to the contents of the bottle. He waa afterward placed in a cell. Getting out of this, on some pretence, for a few mlnatea.be went up to tbe general prisoners’ casemates. Koffman was stationed at tbe bastion, at tbe foot of these rooms. Winters being bunted up by some of tbe guards sent after him, ran down tbe bastion. Koffman

unexpected high water.”

crop. If so, bre

over one half what tho

will not cost did one year ago,

never looked more nromlsing than now, aud vegetables of all kinds are plenty

aud soiling at reasonable prices.

—The Petersburg Press says: The wheat harvest is about over, and from all accounts the crop is by far Hie largest ever produced In this county in any one year. There waa a greater' breadth of acres sown, and the yield per acre on an average exceeds that of any previous year. The corn is growing rapidly, and bids fair to make a good yield. Small fruit of all kinds are abundant, while the apple and peach trees are already groaning un-

der their loads of maturing fruit.

—Tbe Franklin Jrffersoniantnya: This week will about wind up the wheat harvest through this section of country. As a general thing the crop stood thick upon tho ground, the beads are well filled, and there can not fait to be a very heavy yield. We have heard considerable complaint among farmers about “spot,” "dry rot,” rust, etc,. In the wheat, but we are satisfied that the extent which the crop is Injured amounts to but little. We never saw the year when some farmers did not take a pleasure in grumbling. The Chops.—The unprecedented rains which have lately fallen, have bad their effect upon tho crops. Afost of the wheat is flattened down and tangled into an awful mass. Reapers will be of little use this year. Many oflh? fanqers are mowing their wheat, aud eve^trying to save It with sickles. The ber^is reported as very little tnlqred, ifiMch leas than was expected, and if the crop can yet bo saved U will be large anil good; but the continuance of wet weather will ultimately destroy it. AH other oropaare suffering se-

—The Dearborn Independent says wheat harvest la about closed. A good crop Is being secured. Other small grains will return a fair yield. Hay will be much better than was thought a few weeks ago. Corn ia promising. Potatoes and other vegetables bid fair. Fruit will be abundant. Truly Ibis bids fair to be a fortunate year, Tbougn mere is unmistakable evidence that too few people labor at tilling the soil and saving tbe crops. The agricultural s-tcletl >s should direct attention to the fact that there are too many

oousumefs for the producers.

—The Heymour Devyocrat of Wednesday says: The wl;eat harvest will probably bo ended by to-morrow evening. We have heard reports fyoiq every portion of tbe county, afid »U glyo glofirlnt accounts of the yield- The wheat crop oT Jackson county this year la double that obtained

On Monday afternoon It was slumbering in the field, but Golonel K. being a model farmer, cut, gathered, thrashed aud sacked it iiefore dark, and shipped it by steamer the next morning. Within twenty-four hours the lot of wheat was transferred from the field to New Allisnv, a distance of thirty miles. The New Albany Ledger inquires,

"Who can beat It?”

Coal.—Tho new Covington coal continues to arrive at tho rate of Bbout a boat load per day. It is more than coining up to the most enthusiastic prophecies made with regard to it. It is almost an identical formation with the "Brazil” or Clay county coal, which has long been so peculiar here. It burns all up to ashes, and Is perfectly free from the clinker and rubbish which has almost abolished the Danville coal irom family use. It was tested Informally a week or so ago, at the oil mills, for steam making purposes,and in an eight and a third days’ run demon' sirated a gain of about twenty-five, per cent., burning about that much longer than the same amount ol Danville coni, A strict tost is now, however, being made.

waa thanked in a special order, and his conduct commended as sn example to other soldiers. It was some litre after this that an order was issued by the commanding officer, Major G. P. Andrews, and posted In tbe guard house, directing sentinels in charge of prisoners, In case of the slightest disobedience on tbe part of the latter, to “use tbe cartridge first and bayonet afterwards.” Such was tbe ex-

act language made use of.

^Viewing such a fact as this, one may well ask,Ts this a republican government and free country, where such things are done by tbe honored and well paid servants of the people? Would It be tolerated in Kueaia, Naples, or Poland, or In

Previous to tho impeachment of Mr. JnbiiHon, a carpet bagger, named Oleeson, armed with s roving commission from that illustrious warrior and immaculate representative of a free people, Benjamin F.

Ho was lavish of promises of getting them out of prison, if they would only make tlie required statements. The men refused, one and all, to lend themselves to

su baso a piece of villainy. Ills minsion was, iu this respect, a failure, but he was

afterward rewarded by being

Lieutenant Governor of Florida. Some time ago, bo and Heed, the Governor of that unfortunate State, fell out about the plunder, but have since patched up

peace.

Colonel Grenfel, to whom Spangler alluded, was literally driven to desperation by bad treatment. He was a highspirited gentleman, of good birth and liberal education. Tbe clownish, illiterate officer of tlie post,'unable to tamo his indomitable spirit, determined it would serve to break tbe life in biin. It was, indeed, a sad »]>ectaclii to see that fine old man, who had braved death on many a well-fought field, kicked into the sea with a rope around his body and irons attached to his feet, while the provost marshal, who occasionally attended negro prayer-meetings on the island, exclaimed: “D—u him, drown him if he

won’t work.”

All the hard blows did not, however, fall upon the prisoners. Holdlers were frequently made the recipients of similar favors. 1 have seen, on a blessed Sabbath morning, more than forty ot the “boys in blue" carrying a fifty-six pound shot on their shoulders in the sun, in front of tbe guard house, while the thermometer stood 120 degrees in the shade. They were assigned to this agreeable relaxation on this Christian day ot rest for not pleasing their company officers at inspec lion, it a brass plate was not bright enough, or a speck of dual waa disceruable upon their arms and equipments. I know of one case of a soldier who carried a fifty-six pound shot for ninety-six hours, without intermission, day and night, except at meal limes, because the First Lieutenant found fault with his gloves at guard mount. When these hellish tortures are practiced in tho army, is it any wonder that In 1867 the desertions amounted to over

13,000?

Ou another occasion some of the members of one company made a respectful statement that they were robbed of their rations, and half starved. The signers of this petition were all severely punished. Half the rations allowed to soldiers were swallowed up by "company savings.” This money goes Into tbe officers' pockets. Where it goes afterward is a mystery that it would take an advanced spiritualist to discover. One of the officers of tbe Fifth artillery possesses tbe diary of Colonel Grenfel. If he had the eourage to make it public, some very startling revelations as to
