Gambling was carried on in open defiance OF the
laws, aud no notice whatever was taken Of il by
the town authorities. We can but regret that
while these encampments serve to discipline our
military, they also serve to discipline hundreds
OF young men to acts of vice aud dissipation"
The Boston Republican says; "Although or
der and decorum prevail generally within the
lines OF the encampment gambling, drunken
ness, and rowdyism, ruled the hour outside the
lines. Liquor was sold without the least ate mpt
made to prevent it, and the gamblers carried on
their trade entirely unmolested. We were in
formed that much rowdyism and fighting took
place among the outsiders. Such scenes are dis
graceius to human nature. We see no way to
prevent such degrading exhibitions of depravity.
We are free to confess that there is and can be
nothlng derived from encampments and reviews,
that shall at all compensate even the militia, for
the exhibitions of such scenes OF Decentralization
and degradation. Unless some means are adopt.
ed TO prevent such scenes, the encampments and
muster had much better be given up aud alto

E1gT The New York Evening Post gives the
following rebuke to those Northern Democratic
journals which are rejoicing over the slave-dem.
ocratic victories in the South:
"Could the democracy of any free State have
been properly called upon to rejoice because a
windy declaimer, like Venable, had carried his
district on the issues of the confscation of north
ern property wherever found south of the line
Of free Territory, and the prohibition of the

1t a matter of true graduation that there the sue
cessful party emblazoned on its banner, non

proposed law OF Congress, at all hazards and to
the last ertrem,ty" These are sentiments so
closely allied to treason and dsunion, that it is to
us cause OF profound grief that they seem TO
have commenced temporary popular approval.
And as to Kentucky, we certainly cannot consent
that one word OF exultation shall go forth from
the ranks OF our party because the advance OF
freedom has received a check again and because
men have thriven on professions OF devotion TO
