BURLINGTON HAWK-EYE.
COL. WARREN.

COL. WARREN.
The papers all over the country have had some
thing to say about this gentleman. We doubt not
that those who anticipated weaving political capital
| for locofocoism out of their attacks on him are
heartily sorry for having engaged in the business.
Their object has been counteracted. They dis
appointed. Their darling desires have been defeat
| ed. reaction in favor of Col. Warren has taken
place. The locos see it. They feel it. II is for
this they are sorry. They have made the man they
would have destroyed, stand out the most promi-
nent with the consciousness their part that
not particle Of the numerous charges they made
against him have been even partially sustained
He stands erect and unscathed. The petty annoy
ances of the Union'' and its coparners in detrac-
ton, have benefited, injured him. No dishon-
or, such as they had bespoke and anticipated, at
taches 10 the character of FrTz HENRY WARREN.
Loco focos here, already condemn the course Of
Father Richie, in no measured terms. They see
that neither the Administration Of Gen. Taylor nor
the official character of Col. Warren can be unpopu-
larised by such means have been put forth to ac
complish it. They wish it we're otherwise, and they
would have thrown up their caps in ecstacy, could
their wishes have been gratiied by even such
Although they are unit far as the wish is con-
cerned, they resolve themselves into various dis
cordant elements, when the measures to secure
their object are brought into the account. The want
OF success on the part Of Father Richie, is, after
all, what maddens them, and not the abuse that he
has heaped upon COL Warren. They would that
the Colonel had not triumphed over their malevo-
lence. They hoped that he would have had no
friends TO vindicae shield him from their charges
Mistaken, disappointed men. Ye have digged a nit
into which We yourselves have fallen. II 10 unne-
cessary for to extend our remarks, as the object
Of them now towers far above his traducers. II
any thing further were needfnl to expose the bitter
uncharitableness of loco focoism, it will be found
in the communication Of worthy correspondent,
in another column.
Lost WIFE.-Mr ARTHUR PIsNELL, Baker in
Syracuse, n. Y. advertises for his wife and Child.
They came to New York from London, in October
1913, on the way to her husband. They were five
or six persons in company, and from their move
ments in attempting to take her baggage and leave
mother and child in the boarding house where they
put up, it is feared some foul play has been used.
Mrs Pinnelps maiden name was Edwards, from
Westminster in Wiltshire. She is short in per-
son, Of good appearance, black eyes and hair very
quick in speaking, and about thirty years of age.
Sarah, her child, 10 four years old and is very like
her mother. Any information of them will be
thankfully received by the bereaved husband. On
their arrival Mr. p received letter from her stating
that she would join him at Geneva, via the canal,
since which time, although he advertised for her in
the N. Y. Sun, he has heard nothing from her.
Our Commissioner to the Sandwich Islands-Mr
Ten Eyck-has got himself into trouble. The gov
eminent sent agent California, and because the
ruling power did not consult and make him the chan
mel of communication, Mr. Ten Eyck took offence,
published several abusive articles in the Sandwich
Island News against the government and its officers,
and hauled down the American flag. We shall have
to go out there, after ALL to settle the difficulty, if it
is not soon healed up.
coSSIcTICuT.-The locos are Growing at their
late victory in Connecticut At this the free soilers,
who helped them achieve it, are grumbling most
The free sellers made nothing by
going over to their enemies and the enemies oftheir
pretended shibboleth. With four majority in the |
Senate the wings win have majority on joint bal
lot The result will eventually be beneficial to the
wings.
