Without pretending to h7aow anything
about the feelings of the member elect from
the second, district in this county as to
what his official action should be, we
think the Journal is safe in assuming that
he will not act as partizan Democrat
He was nominated at Union convention
composed Of Republicans and Democrats
in which the Republican element was
far the stronger of the two, and ,oas cleo
ted by Republican uotes He could not
have been chosen without them. While
his majority was 1877, Harvey's maj. in the
district was los, and some of the other Rer.
candidates run even still higher than
that So that it would be manifestly un-
fair for Mr.. Green to turn upon these to
whom be is indebted for his election and
vote and act with the Democratic party
exclusively. We do not believe that he
will DO so. Our acquaintance with him.
We think, justifes US in saying that he will
arise at this time above the petty machina-
tons of party, and in all his official acts
and votes reflect the wishes of his con,
stituents, majority of whom he knows
are not attached to the Democratic party.
Time will tell whether we are mistak en- in
this or not.

GOING TO HELL UNcLEsAMFRsr


In one of the companies of the Eighth
Wisconsin Regiment was young man,
under age, who enlisted without his faith
er's consent, and contrary to his wishes. =
The father, farmer, residing in the
Northwestern par: of the State. wrote Sow
eral letters to his son, while the regiment
was in quarters at Camp Randall, for the
purpose of persuading him to return. At
last he wIote him that he must come
that be had large amount of tbreshing
to do-that he could not afford to hire
help, if it were to be had, which was bard
ly possible, owing to the number of enlist
ments-and that he must return home
and help him, even if he enlisted again
afterwards.
The young man replied:
Dear Father Il can't 90 home at
present. I should be very glad to help
you, but Uncle Sam has got ID sight
bigger job of thrcsbing on hand than YOU
have, and | am bound to see him cut Of

THE Spo1Is.-Among the spoils taken
at the fort captured at Port Royal, are
500 muskets. the complete camp equipage
of three regiments, 80 capnons and inn
mense quantities of ammunition. Most of
the cannons were columbiads of the very
largest size, l30-pounders, and of the most
admirable finish, being the finest and latest
productions of the Tredegar works, Rich
mond, and fully equal to any guns owned
by the North.
The muskets are cur own Springfield
rifed muskets. The camp equipage and
clothing are of the very best quality.
The powder is said to be the very best
English powder, and the cartridges are of
English make, and some of the projectiles
of rihed cannon they are supposed to be
an English invention.
One the soldiers is said to have dis
covered Si,O0Oin gold and silver in one of

discover considerable sums of South Caro-

THE RESULT DETERMINED.-Oure election
table is at length very nearly completed
by official returns. The majority for Har-
vey foots up 5000, and will not be dimin-
ished from that figure. The whole of the
ticket is elected, some of the candidates
having probably as high as 1000 majority.
There will be at least 10000 votes less
polled than last year. Had the vote been
full the majority would have been %, 900
at least. There has been no diminution of

WHAT CANADA PROPOSES TO Do.-No
doubt it is grand thing to get news from
California in twenty-five minutes instead
of twenty-five days, and the Americans
deserve great credit for running the tele-
graphic wire, as they have done, across the
continent.
They are little ahead of US, in this,
but they will not p' eserve their advantage
long. Before many years-perhaps by the
time they have extended their lines to
British Columbia-we will run ours to the
Red River and up the Saskatchewan, and
have telegraph, as we will have a rail
way, too, from the Atlantic to the Pacific,

Soon after the announcement was made
OF the contemplated intervention, by Eng
land, France and SPAIN in the affairs of
Mexico, our government despatched ship
of war, commanded by an experienced
officer, to the Gulf, to look after our inter-
ests.
Another vessel was also despatched up
the coast to Tampico, to prevent the tran
sit of passengers from the rebel Govern
ment across that country, and also to pre-
vent the shipment of cotton, SO, from the
rebel States This wise precauton it is
said, has suddenly put stop to an extern
sive traffic which was about being inaug-
urated. At about the same time Secretary
Seward sent respectful communication to
England, France and Spain, respecting the
alleged Intervention of those Governments
in affairs of Mexico but up to the last
adVices from Europe no satisfactory
answer has been received by our Govern
ment.
They appear to be quibbling upon the
matters, and seem to be disinclned to
state their real objects and designs. Our
Government is keeping a most vigilant
watch, and will not pcrmit this formidable
Erropean combination to make any advan-
ces CT aggressions on this continent.

A Strange Proceeding.

Considerable surprise was occasioned
few days ago by the announcement that
the War Department had disbanded Gov.
Barstow's Cavalry Regiment. No enc
can explain what it means, Tt has been
generally understood that the Depart
ment, subsequent to the removal of Gen.
Fremont, sanctioned bis action in the mat
ter in authorizing Gov Barstow to raise
the regiment spoken of; and if this be
true 1t is strange that now after the same
Is mere than half full and thousands of
dollars have been expended in getting it
up, 1t should be abandoned. Gov. Bar
stow has gone to Washington to ascertain
if possible, the cause Of this last move
ment We shall probably know all about
it in few days.
y Ohm c. Breckenridge has been ap-
pointed Brigadier General in the rebel
army, and ordered to Southern Kentucky.
to put provisional government of tie
State in motion. Humphrey Marshall has
also been made a Brigadier General, and
assigned tie rebel command in Eastern
Kentucky

Pilots for the South.

Rapidly, but quietly, the Government
is getting its second great expedition in
readiness. While the attention of the
public is Fixed on the armada now operat-
ing in the bay and inlets of Port Royal,
the vessels arc nearly fitted eut, and the
men encamped, that within a few weeks,
will strike quick succession of terrible
blows at unknown points on the Southern
coast. One expedition, led BY General
Of tried skill and gallantry, and composed
of picked New England troops, is nearly
ready for departure, and may be expected
to sail within ten days. With respect to
the details of these movements, the gov
ernmet keeps well its secrets, but enough
is known to warrant the belief that the
best hopes of the loyal States, and tie
worst expectations Ct the rebels will be to
great extent realized.
To handle these immense fleets success
fully, the government is now employing all
the pilots in this city, Boston and other
Northern ports, who are acquainted with
the enemy's coast. Many hardy captains,
who, in old times, lave been engaged in the
Southern trade, and know by experience
the approaches and soundings of every port
and cove where it might be d sired to land
troops, are Offering their services. They
are out of employment now and readily
embrace the opportunity to do the country
service, and earn $50 month, and ra
tions, at the same time Large as is the
demand for pilots of confirmed practica
skill, it is believed that the sea-going popu
lat;on of the North can furnish them, an6
that none of our transports or guns vii
be wrecked through the ignora nee of the
man at the helm.

A delegation of prominent citizens of
Baltimore have visited Washington to
make an appeal in behalf of the working
men of that city. They say by the vio-
lence and facetious opposition of trea-
sonable minority, Baltimore has been in
volyed in disaster and distress beyond what
is due to the mere existence of state of
war, and their troubles have been still fur
ther aggravated by the disabled condition
Of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the
principal artery of their trade and source
of their prosperity.

TINS distinguished Union patriot is mention

chosen few days ago will be called
upon to elect Senator for six years, from
the 4th of March, 1868, when the term of
Hon. Anthony Kennedy will expire. It

The capture of those two scapegraces-

credited agents and ministers of the south
srn confederacy, is one of the most bril-
liant and gratifying achievements of the

Naval Expedition down in Dixie-has been
