From Gen. woors Army.

We make the following extract from lettel
by the Picayune's correspondent, dated 25tt
ult, at Camp luena Vista, the headquarters
of Gen. Wool. 1t was brought by the U.S.
steamer Telegraph, which arrived on Sunday
from the Brazos, having sailed on the 18th inst
Col. Hays was at the Brazos with one company
Of his battalion. He expected to leave for
Vera Cruz in day or two on the James L. Day.
The Yellow Fever is said to be raging with
| severity in Matamorous. This arrival confirms
the news that Gen Taylor will establish his
headquarters at Matamoros by the 18th OF No
vember.
While Gen. Wool was engaged in the inves-
tigation Of the murder Of Dewitt, the private
in Capt. Meer's company of Volunteers, much
excitement was produced by the commission
of another murder on Wednesday, and which
is still on the tapis.
Two men attached to the quartermasters
department, named Raynes, from Kentucky,
and Patterson, from Illinois one blacksmith
and the other a wheelwright, had been in the
habit of meeting aparty OF Mexicsns rear
a rancho about half a mile from camP and
gambling with them at monte. On Wednes-
day they left their quarters to meet their Mex
lean friends, but not coming home at night,
Search was made for them the next morning,
and their murdered bodies were found in
ditch, partially buried, and near them evidence
that they had been playing cards. Immediate
measures were taken by Gen. Wool to have
the murderers detected, arrested and properly
punished.
BY untring perseverance tn ZEE Mexicafs have
been arrested, about whose guilt there is no
donbt. One of the rascals, doubtless upon
the principles that misery likes company
peached on his comrades. A military com
mission, composed Of Maj. T. Houzard. quar-
termaster, Capt. Buckner, of the Dragons,
Capt. Harper, of the Virginia regiment, Capt
Napier, assistant quartermasters, and Lieut.
Benham, Engineer Corps, with Lieut. Frank
lin, of the Typographical Engineers, as recor-
der, have been sitting to-day. Ii they find
the prisoners guilty they will be hung to O.
dead certainty, and very excellent effect il
will have upon the Mexican community. One
Of the poor devils, real Mexican black-leg,
very handsomely dressed. hand-cufed and his
legs connected together by an ankle chain quite
short, has just passed my tent. Although this
unfortunate wretch must take highland fling
with hearty-choke sauce, as the saying is,
could not help laughing at his manner Of
getting over the ground. He is evidently ao-
customed to have his legs fettered, for he goes
along with a sort of swinging, easy, dancing
sort of gate, very graceful, such as suppose
the small-footed Chinese ladies' are compelled
to adopt. The commissions will sit tomorrow
and suppose settle the business.-T Wh,g

WHY OihCcs
the tickets printed at this Office We're printed
for pay and according 10 the order OF ind'vid-
nails. We have not inserted, or left out any
name on our own responsibility. Therefore
every Wing will see the necessity OF carefully
examining his UNDERSTANDING every name on
il and see that it is right. For Secretary Of
State, w. II. H. Patterson, Taylor democrat,
and whose services in Mexico entitle him 10
some consideration, and whose qua!ificatlons
are undoubted, is an independent candidate.
Let every foe to caucus dictation, every man
who is in favor of rewarding patriotic services,
vote for him. For auditor of Public Accounts,
franklin Smith, our townsman, is an indepen-
den, Democratic Candidate. Asyou all know
him we need no, say another word Give him
vour votes. Our County and District ticket
in the Legislature is composed OF as able, IN
tellipent and honest men as can be put forth IN
anv county in the State. Let every one who
calls himself Wing, laying aside piques and
preiudices vote the ticket. Above all let every
Wing yo,e--let him bring forward any hesita-
ting wing and urge him to vote-let US see IT an
irresponsible caucus of a few Democrats, who
even quarrelled among themselves at the meet
inc Of the caucus, can dictate whom the people
of this County shall be represented by. 1t we
are to be caucus ridden, let 1t be by caucus
Of ouv own.

II there is any one thing more than another,
which the Wings Of this or any other county
should avoid, Il 10 the Suse which -is practicsd
on them by democrats-s,oeppAg votes. A

enough to trace the matter further
ain the number Of Wings to whom
rat has made the same and exacted
lodges. Perhaps it may be to one,
five, ten or twenty, and thus he 10
make his single democratic vote,
seular candidate, with five, ten or twen-
yotes.- We once knew this game sue
Darried out, in county not five thou
Odnd miles from the centre Of this state,--a
good wing candidate for the legislature was de-
feated and on embittered iocofoco elected
thereby. One locofoco loudly boosted after
his election, that his single vote had offset sir,
teen Wing eotes, and SO it had. The sixtee9
Wings looked very sheepish, as soon as the
ascertained the adroit manner in which they
had been fooled, duped; and made tools Of ~
forward cause utterly repugnant to thl
principles. We relate this anecdote merely
to put our friends upon their guard against the
wiles Of their opponents, who will strain every
nerve, have recourse to every subtsrfuge, falter
at no obstacle, if by any such means they cam
ensure the success Of their candidate. Let the
Wings take warning in time--let them at once
go to work, energetically, industriously, and
faithfully, and SO continue, until the polls are
closed, for we doassure the Wings Of the ccun-
ty that both energy and industry will be re.
quired to save them from an ignominious and
disastrous defeat at the ensuing election. -

Carlisle Riot Case.

1t is already known to our readers that
Professor McClintock was acquitted by the
Jury, and thirteen OF the colored people con-
victed. Last Tuesday morning these were
sentenced by the Court; one to an imprison.
ment Of ten days in the County iail-another
to SIX months, and The remaining eleven 10
three years each in the Eastern peniten,ia-
ry.
The Erening Bulletin says: ga Carlisle
paper states, that when the verdict of the in
ry was rendered, acquiuing Professor Nc.
Citntock, Judge Hepburn, who presided, en-
pressed a very decided dissatisfaction with
the verdict, and went so far AS 10 condemn
the action OF The jury in open and express
terms, adding that if il We're a civil case he
would instantly set the verdict aside"
We have no means Of knowing how true
this report may be, but the sentence passed
upon the eleven colored men, of three wears
for each, indicates a temper unsparinp enough
to desire the conviction of the Professor

Sale at RaVenna.

We stated in a recent number of the Bu-
gle that there would be a sale of Fair goods
at Ravenna during the meeting there. 1t
took place as announced, but the opportuni-
ty which the Convention afforded for dispo-
sing of the articles left on hand at New
Lyme, was not so good as anticipated, al
though over 800 was realized. This, with
the proceeds of the Fair during Anniversary
week, together with private sales, donations,
&C., give a total of 1896. This does not,
of course, include the amount received from
ii. w. Curtis for tavern CUSTOM, or the mo-
ney taken at the Jefferson and New Lisbon
tables, all Of which would make about SI25.
We were surprised and pleased with the
Willingness of the people in the West to
contribute so literally to the support of the
Fair; many towns did well, and no inconsid-
cradle aid was also rendered by the friends
in the East. We have before noticed the do
nations from Philadelphia and Boston, and
take this opportunity of acknowledging a
contribution from a friend in New York city,
a donation in goods from another in Buffalo,
and $40 in money from the friends in Lynn
al acceptable gifts TO the cause of human
lty, and the more grateful as they give evil
dence OF The donors interest in the progress
of anti-slayery in the West.

VIM. Lloyd Garrison.

Our readers will be surprised and sadden-
ed TO learn that this devoted friend of human

pointments in New York, is lying ill at
Cleveland. lie was taken the day after the
last meeting appointed for him and Douglass
in this State, and though he went on board
the boat intending TO go 10 Buffalo, he was
too Ill to proceed, and returned to the house
OF our friend Thos. Jones with whom he is
now staying, and from whose family he re-
celves the kindest attention. He was attack
ed with a fever, which though intermittent
at first, his physician was fearful would as
sumo the Typhoid form. We have not
heard from him since Sunday, at which time
he was not considered dangerously i'll. We
are looking anxiously for further intelligence,
and confidently hope that his life may yet be
long spared for future usefulness.
