So complete and successful was It Hint his political opponents, (says the correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer,) Hendricks.Doolittle, etc., and the Republican .

Having entered heartily into .the defense of our 31.

It will be seen by the following' extract from the correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, 'Mack,' that, like .the imcipnt Bob Acres, our M. C.'s courage oozed out at his elbows, and that he didn't mean fight when he i enm ..Bn.r imgui, . u n.-.e., ( f j r-t. .1. ah l. : 'at any time ! We knew he was lme i grained" and " tough in fibre," and thought the j time had arrived when we could award him -praise for possessing personal ' courage sufficient for self defense which ; is all that a constituent should demand in o distinguished representative. But hear " Mack: " ! !' ' The peace of Washington was some what ruffled the other day by the hostile words that passed between Julian, of ImliRrj, and Chanler, or New York. Chanler had called Julian a coward, or alluded to some of bU remarks as cow ardly, and. after -ilsv. interchange of o ; few further com piineut3, Julian protn- : ieed to settle, the matter outside of t!ie : Hou-se. ,1f thoughCof course that' this ! meant an immediate fight. I hud heard i something of the valor of both parties, and 'was fully prepared for 'something i deadly as the result As so: n nI heard , of 'what had occurred in the House I started for the Capitol; expecting every moment to hear the report of pistols, or j to see one of the parties run op the Av- i enue as if tho devil was. at hit heels, I ! did not know which. Judge of my surprise when, within two (squares of the . Capitol, I saw the valorous G. Washing- ; ton J. walking along linked arm in arm ; with a lady.; The wretched Chanler ; had been foiled in bis diabolical intent i nf a Midden and unexnected assault ud- ! on Julian, after the manner of Sol. Mer- j. . edith. G. W. J. had frustrated hie hell j i .i 1 J.n. n.n .1... s.mlinyv f r o tirjfotAI1 I Who would have thought him so "cuaniug o' fence ?" " " The New York Tribune, thus notices the Julian-Chanler difficulty? "Mr. Julian recently spoke in the House in favor of 'confiscating and puting into market the lands of the disloyal Southern railroad companies, who still hold 5,000,000 acres of lands granted to them by the United States, while thirteen -fourteenths of the Southern people are landless ahd homeless. In reply to his remarks ; upon , the disloyalty of these companies, Mr, .Chanler of New-York (Dem) denied that their disloyalty had anything to do with the question. Mr. Julian begged Mr. Chanler to "contain his soul in patienee under "the exposure of the Rebel character of his "frends in the South." Mr. Chanler retorted by styling Mr. Julian a coward. Mr. Julian informed him he could test the truth of his charge at any time. Mr. Chanler promised to tako an early opportunity to do so. Will the honorable gentlemen allow ns to inform . them that, if the people wanted blakgaurdism, they could get it jit a cheaper rate than 85,000 a year mileage, and stationery Alas 1 our disappointment it greater than could be expected, and to have Chanler calling our M. C, a coward "and the Tribune stigmatizing both these honorable gentlemen as "blackguards" is more than we can bear patiently ! It is humiliating ! We are not totally discouraged yet, . and, like Macauber, shall "wait for something to turn up !" A Massachusetts farmer says he can winter' his cows on steamed feed for one-third less expense than on dry feed, and eret one-fourth more milk. This is the result of five years' experience. A duel was fought the morning of the 16th inat., near Pater son, N. J., between a merchant of New York and a Wall street bank clerk, in which the latter shot the former in the head, inflicting serious scalp wounds. The trouble originated at a ball lately held at Irving hall. Go to Plummer dc Harrold's, 129 Main Street, sign of Golden Mortar, for Drugs and !dicini.

Letter Endorsing Gen. Sol. Meredith. We ore gratified to present our readers with the following copy of a letter written by W. F. Saxdbrs, Esq., or Montana, to Hon. O. V. Morton, a copy of which a friend procured jmd sent to us." Our Republican readers will rejoice with ua that the General is with our party and laboring for its success at his distant home, 'with the same zeal and fervency of soul that he has always been found battling for the success of the old flag on the field of battle. The socalled present Democratic party, with its opvn wad avowed sympathy for unwashed and linregeneraled rebels its repudiating financial theories its manifest intention io foist upon our beloved country, as its rulers, those evil spirits who plunged it into a calamitous war, Slled the land with mourning and bowed Us citizens with a life-long burden of taxation, will . find Gen- Sol. Meredith, its uullinehing and unj-ieldiug foe.: Vikgixia Crrr, Montana, Nov. 10, G7. Mt DrAR GovKuxon: 1 think in the controversy iu the "Senate, wliich resulted in the confirmation of Gen. Sol. Mkbbdith as Surveyor General of Montana, you were his champoin and devoted friend. Itwa9 my fortune to be the tjand dateof the Republicans this last election, for delegate to Congress, and in a contest, so hopeless as ours was and must remain for a year or two longer, when the temptation was somewhat strong to follow after the "strange gods" which Democracy, the king, had set up here, hi3 suppoit of our party was so cordial and his support of our principles so unconstrained an& hearty, that I

feel like bearing witness .to you of his fideUty to liberty in tbe Territory, and to the value of bis services to our people and party here. Even if he names his views "conservative," his love of country is too strong to permit him to act with the enemies of his country. His inculcation of a spirit of venernation for the flag, and respect for the Government of h'is country, early placed him outside the pale of the Democratic party of Montana, whose organs, in the hope that lie would be thereby reduced , into its support. complimented him on his arriva!, in flattering terms. They were met with eulogies on the dag, and took it as a rebuke. I write you this without liis knowledge, but as there was some opposition to his confirmation, 1 presumed it would be gratifying to you to find that that confidence which you placed in him was well founded, and if you have j other similar "Conservatives" send them on. Very truly, youra, W. F. Sakders. Hon. O. P. Morton, Washington, D. C. A NEW WORK BT HENRY WARD BKECHER- . Among the enterprises of the present year is a new publishing house, that of J. B- Ford & Co. Tbe senior partner of this concern has been for many year-3 in the trade, having., for the past eleven 3'ears, been manager of the subscription department for the ArrLETOKs. As the new house propose to publish chiefly on the subscription plan, they are evidently starting with fair prospects. The work which they will first issue is a Life ot Christ, by Rev. Hbsry ward Beechek; and it would be hard to find in this country a roan better fit, in all senses, to undertake the writing of such a book. It is already under way, as may be seen from the annexed letter from Mr. Bsechfr to his publishers; and, as it is to be issued in parts, we may soon look for the regular announcement of it Rroobxin, Thursday, Jan. 10, 1858. J. B. Ford d Co., Gentlemen, I am at work upon the Lift of Christ, with all diligence, and shall press foward as fast ts other engagements will permit. I have long contemplated this labor of love, and I rcjoii:e that 1 am permitted to begin it under such auspices. The materials are abundant. The difficulty lies in selection. The last thirty years have brought .to the consideration of this subject more learning and eloquence than were ever directed. Our locitl knowledge, too,bas been vasly augmented by the scientific topographical explorations of the Holy Land. At a time when a chill mist of doubt is rising over all tbe aacred Records from an excessive addiction to material science' it would seem that good .service might be rendered to religion by reasserting, in language and by methods congenial to the wants of moderen thought, the Divinity of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. . IlEKRr Ward Bbbchek V. T. Times. Jan. 13, 1868. jjWe perceive that the Democratic papers of this State are going into ecstacies over the "large attendence" at the Convention at Indianapolis, and complacently assume that it eertainly indicates that "the grand old Demorcratic party" will triumph at the coming elections. Not much. The Convention which nominated Vallandigham for Governor of Ohio, four yeares ago, was the largest and most enthusiastic conclave the "unterrified ever had in the Bncke3re State. Yet Val wa beaten at the eleetion more than one hundred thousand votes ! ISTThe New York Tribune figures out 134 electoral votes as certain for the Republican candidate at the next elect'ion against 98 for Democratic, including all doubtful States. Of coarse it counts only on such States as are now in tho Union

For the i'alladium. Richmond and Ft. Wayne R. R. ' Editor Palladicm: The last number of your " paper coutains a valuable artk cle from an Indianapolis correspondent, on the subject of Railroads, which he promises to say more about soon. In the meantime, and as it is a subject which cannot be dilated too freely, I will claim the privilege oi directing tbe citi

zens of Richmond to the Ft. Wayne road in particular, which jTour Indianapolis correspondent refers to ss already under contract to be built, when the facta of the case are, it is virtually-in a state of suspension, and consequently suffering great damage both to the road and prospects of our city, notwithstanding his encouragement to the contrary. We are well aware that Richmond possesses advantages that cannot be easly overcome, and we do not by any means entertain fears of being superceded "by the intrigues "and combinations of adverse Railroad interests," permanent. Tet we may,' and ' undoubtedly will suffer temporarily if we are not prepared to renew operations on this road immediately on the opening of Spring, and ' we are not ignorant of the probabilities or damage it may be to the community, and the cost of reimbursing our people for such toss. Much as a city may possess of local advantages, the establishment of manufactories, &c.,&c, it is necessary that -she should continue to progress.' No -country is considered finished until it begins to decline. : ' sr Richmond was always set down as a remarkable town strangers are ageerably disappointed in visiting it, "and she unquestionably possesses more of the common comforts of soil; ( limatn S.nd ! productions, than rmy place of the size, together with foou taste in improve- j roents, some of which are metropolitan in style: this is condcucive to health, ; wealth and wisdom, all of which is claim- j -ed for our city. Business i3 consequent ly divided up among the many, no one j mas being able to monopolise. Such is the case iu. our social relations also all trades and professions affiliatehence we have a model town. Shall we permit the present depression in business to 'destroy all this by withholding the small amount of means necessary to sustain it when business revives, or shall we suffer sosie of our elements to be diverted elsew'iiere? we will hope not, but if we would establish this hope, we must go right to , work. The maximum es timate necessary to complete this most important job is $250,C00, 8100,000 we have as a city subscription, 800,000 reliable conditinal stock to Ridgeville, where weconneei with a running road to the North-west, after having crossed the Bellfountain road at Winchester, where 850,000 more is promised, leaving only 840,000 to supply. This sum should at once be raised by our numerous capitalists who can surely realize a good per cent, in the enhancement of real estate, and tha increased business that the woil will bring to our city which otherwise must neces sarily be depreciated, as we have shown. There, is no Jebt on the road, but what is provided for by the Board all tho books are in their hands, together ' i with a email amount of subscription that I will be paid, the company owns the j right of way, several acres of valuable j land for Dipots a large amount of ties, timber, stone, See. The Pres't, and Directors are live men, and if the people were waked up once more by placing the means in their hp.n Is, or giving assurance that they will be forthcoming within the next twelve months, the Iron for the 32 miles will he purchased and put down, und the cars running in that time. It is understosd taat the work will ineure a through liee from Richmond to Chicago, and its eo-intiimanee to Cincinnati, by way of "BroelcvHle, or some other point, a foregone lO&eelusion tlvns affording competition aI cheap transportation, an Item ef nrore important' f'.wo is generally -onee-3vd. The coinj.auy will own tbe road and Js? aide to manage it to the interest of our city and the county through which it passes. Let us ,go to work and complete it at cr:c Tbe "Sober SeconJ Thought, T ' Flushed with the success of the Octo- J ber election, the Democracy of Ohio j kave been very jubilant and, deeming ; themselves invincible, they entered the; recent contest in the Sth Congressional ; District, to fill the . vacancv occasioned i i . .!, .i . u i . .. by the death of the member from that district, with all the hopes and pestige of the victor, only to meet with a com-t plete and overwhelming defeat. The I wavering ranks of the Republican Di-i vision in our sister State, rallied on Monday last, and elected General Beattt, one of the invincible commanders of the Grand Army of the Cumberland, by a majority rangiug from seven hundred to one thousand, against a Republican majority at the October election of only 246. Well done, Republicans of the Eight! This is only a precursor a first installment, of that which is in store for the so-called .Democratic Party, in Ohio and all over the free North. For the determination of the Republican army, is to scatter the pestilent sympathizers with the enimie3 of true liberty and equal and exact justice in the South to the four winds of heaven, like chaff before the wind.

The Cincinnati Gizeite says of the election of Gen. BkatttV " " This election shows that the reaction against tho Democracy has alread' set in Ohio. As it was in 1662, so it is in 1868. The Democrats carried Ohio that)ear by false pretenses, i f The election over, the cloven toot was exhibited, and in 1863, John Brough was elected Governor by over ' 100,000 majority. Already in 168, the Democrats, encouraged by the fall elections, have indicated what they would do if restored fully to power, and already have the people taken the alarm, and are prepared to give the party that sustained the rebellion, and would now restore rebels to power, aback seat once more. rThis" special election is, therefore, of great, signifl cance. It fairly foreshadows the vote of November, and insures a sweeping majority for the Republican candidate ' for

It will serv re at as an intimation to the President th his policy is not popular tn O'.tio.'" 5 ' 1 " The loyal people of the nation have been placed under obligations to the Republicans of the Eight District, who so vigorously fought and so gloriousyl won this short but decisive battle for principles."
