the citizens Of Dayton, in front Of the Court
House on Saturday night, He made public
profession Of the faith he has privately held and
exhibited at the ballot box ever since the organ

ginning, but being engrossed wholly for several
years past with private and railroad business,
he has taken no active part in politics since
1854 Having now a season Of greater leisure
he made his FIRST appearance on the Republican
boards on Saturday night, aud was Publically

audience throughout. The speech, however,
was "fossiliferous" in its whole extent, remind

zens for it is really meritorious work oi
art, and not a mere daub as have been some
PanoTsnss exhibited here. 1t meets the
appreciation of all denominations of Chris

on the minds Of the beholders. 1t will be
exhibited here but twice more--to-night and
tomorrow night, when it will positively
leave Dayton for Richmond, la. We rather
insist upon all our citizens seeing this ad

MURDERKR ARREsrED-HE CoNFEssEsl-The
police Of Miami County, after pursuing every
possible clue TO the murder of Manning, near
oOvington on Friday morning last, have at
last been successful. II was ascertained from
two brothers named Mcdowell, that Manning
had but recently returned from California, in
company with man named o'Bstty; that they
had seen them together in California. OBatty's
father resides about four miles above jackson
ville Darke Co., and officers, in company with
one of the Mcdowell brothers, proceeded to the
place They found young OBJ, and discoy-
cred some specks of blood upon his pants
He accounted tor this by saying he had killed
a hog, and produced butcher knife with which
he had stuck it. BE was then charged with
the murder, which he at first stoutly denied
but when confronted with Mcdowell, he be
came confused, and then confessed to the W hole
affair. His confession is briefly this:
He and Manning were in California together
M. had been tOlerably fortunate, and intended
returning to his home in Kentucky, on a visit
OBJ. desired to come along, but not having the
means, proposed that NJ. should pay the ex.
pense; that he should get the money to repay
him from his father, whom he represented "well
off," when they would then go to Ky, visit his
friends, and then return together to California
They stopped in Dayton last Thursday
Manning purchased a pair Of boots of aA.
Phillips, Sd st., and he purchased a suit for
both at one Of the clothing stores, their clothing
being nearly worn out. They went up on the
evening train. and got of together at Piqua, and
started off for Jacksonville. When near Gov
ington, in the woods, OBJ. determined to kill
Manning, in order, a. he says, to avoid paying
him back the money for his expenses, which
amounted to a considerable sum, apd then tC
rob him of what he had. Falling back few
steps he shot NJ. in the head with revolver
and when he fell he cut his throat with hi
knife in order to make sure work. 0'BattS wal
arrested and lodged in Jail at Troy.
Our informant relates further that early yes
terdsy morning OBS counsel procured hors
and buggy for the purpose Of visiting the res
idenee Of prisoners father, and securing al
evidences Of he guilt Of his client. One of th
attorneys engaged for the prosecution also pro
, cured an outfit and started in pursuit; but law
yer No. had secured satchel containing tw
Tevolvers, money, and other matters. and mad
of before his arrival. On their return 10 Piqul
they had quite quarrel about the evidences,
but the prosecutor finally got possession Of ther
"in the name Of the State" Efforts are bsin
made TO break the force Of OBS confession
at present the chances look bad for him. Tn
murder was one Of the most inhuman ever CON
mitted in this part Of the State.

had the pleasure Of attending the review at
Camp Quitman on last Friday not having been
on the ground before, and having some offec

sources Of pleasure, On looking on the mimic

while the soldiers were firing blank, ] could not

another character Monterey, Cherubusco,
Contreras, Ohepultapec, and even that terrible
pedrigal had been crossed by men who were
figuring in the mimic battle Of Friday, and it
was pleasing to me to find no tyros at the helm.
The attack and defence were commanded by
Col King and Capt. Ernst, and the manner in
which the work was done, reflected credit on
the African as it did on the Mexican soldier.
But Just about the time the skirmishers were
fully extended, and Col. King was about out.
flaDking his African opponent, Uol. Tilton, in
undress uniform, arrived on the ground, and
with that presoience which belongs to the true
soldier, at once discovered that Col. King was
about taking possession Of the gallant son Of
La Belle France, and with the generous gals

The staff presented pleasing appearance, and
it is valuable to any community who possess
citizens who are at all times willing to dof the
habilments Of the citizen and don those Of the
soldier. There is indeed but little danger that
any people possessing such qualifications are
likely to be troubled from without That old
piece Of advice given by Gen. jackson, that in
time Of peace it is necessary to prepare for war,
is full guarantee that in these piping times
the cultivation of those qualities which render a
people ready for defense, is decidedly saving

adapt their fellow citizens to purpose like
that above indicated, aae entitled to more than
ordinary praise; even gratitude will not convey
it. The security to life and property which
this assures, should elicit the appreciation and
countenance of all citizens, and l cannot close
without rendering my tribute of praise to those
gentlemen who, with an abandon truly admira.
