The TyEigss Treason--Cof. Waite.

The Journal Of Commerce. says that much in
terest Us to the future course Of Col. Waite in
his new command, is felt among the army Off
GERS in this city. From what is known Of the
man. it is supposed that he will hold council
Of officers and advise the reteking Of the prop.
esty which Gen. Twiggs has surrendered with
out the authority Of the u. Government to
t'somebody" in Texas,-the telegraph does
not say whom-but probably not Gov. Hous-
ton. Should the Colonel's views be sustained
by majority ofhis officers, he will act prompt
II and fearlesaly in yindicatinG the rights Of
the Government that he represents. Colonel
Waite is native Of New York, about sixty
years Of age, and has been in the nrmy about
forty years, aud filled many RESPONSIBLE posi-
tions, all Of them with high ability and spot
less honor. The army has derived great bene-
ats from his labora us Superintendent Of Tho
Recruiting service and assistant Qaarternas-
tcr. He fought gallantly in the MexicaA War,
was promoted from Major to Lieut.. Col. for
his distinguished services at Cherubusco, aud

Molino del Rey, where, he Was Berlousl wound:

t is within the recollection Of most men
Of the present day that when Gen. Jackson
took his stand against the South Carolina
nnllifers in 1882, the whole country rallied
to his support, and carried the government
safely through the crisis. The bitterness
Of party spirit at that period was certainly
equal to anything the country has subsc-
quently Witnessed. The animosity between
Wings and Democrats was slcepless and
unrelenting. From the iron-willed head Of
the Democratic party down 10 the hum
blest private in the ranks, there vas no
such thing as tolerance Of Wing men Or |
Wing doctrines. When, therefore, Ger. !
jackson issued his famous Proclamation,
announcing his innexible resolution to en- |
force the laws Of the United States with all |
the power Of the nation, a favorable oppor- |
tunity was presented to his political oppo-
nents to embarrass his administration, if !
not to destroy the party which had placed
him IN power. But to the impcrishable
honor Of the old Wing party, history re-
corde how, to nun, they rallied to the
cause Of their country, encouraged and
sustained the iron-C -Chiettain who had
oyerbo1ne them in political contest,
sank the partisan in The patriot, and, for.
getting all differences as to mere questions
Of policy, Joined heartily and zealously
with their latcopponentsin in patriotic cndea-
vortos save bet Union and preserve the gov
eminent on viii h it rested. Whatever may
be the opinions Of. the present generation
as to the political theories which the Wing
party struggled long and so unsuccessfully
TO maintain this one fact in its history
places beyond doubt or cavil its claims to
genuine and an inconuptib1e patriotism.
. The Democratic party raI1ied no less unit
edly to the support Of the administration !;
but it was their own President they were
backing, and party tealty would have been
satisfied with nothing less. While the Int
ter may have been quite as patriotic as the
former, there was this difference between
them-the csnduct Of the Wing party
could, not be explained on any other by.
poshesis than that Of the most unselfsh
patriotism; thatof the Democracy could

4 NOVEL Ice HoCsE.-The Win5t1d (Ct.,)
Herald gives this account of the manner in
which Mr. Goodwin OF New Hartford fills lis
ice house: +.
Mr. Goodwin is supplied with excellent
water from spring st considerable elevation
above his house. Connected with ipe which
supplies the latter is q branch pipe !radins to
the ice-house this pipe is pierced by twenty or
thirty small holes, from which as many fue
jets Of water rise 10 the ront, falling back in
drops to the bottom surf!ec Of the house.
These jets are only let on when the weather is
cold, and the doors and yeatilatoTs being
open, the water freezes as it falls, aud in few
days, or weeks at furthest, the house is filed
With single block Of pure, transparent ice.
Mr. GoodWia's ice keeps through the ectize

The New Flag.

We have not seen the new flag Of the Con-
fcderate States, and of course cannot speak
positively Of its beauty or it's faults. But so
far as VIC can Judge Of both from the lescrip.
tion, We doubt whether the yellow and red
stripes look 50 beautiful IS the old familiar
"Red, White and Blue" Something, it is true,
wns due to the prejudices Of South Carolina,
one Of whose sons said lately in the Conven-
ton that the stripes On the old Union banner
had been regarded Jtons earliest infancy as the
stripes Of degracat1on and disgrace. One
would hare thought the stripes Would hare
Carolina been the ruling motive But no, they
have been retaincd, and In q less striking form
as it appears to us. And then the cloud-com.
pelling esg!e On the old banner, is substituted
hy the new moon What does this portend?
We all know that the moon, the paled-tacc
moon, + -
Changes nightly in it, circllng orb +:
Is it for this that It WAS chosen az the emblem
We hope NOT, and yet cavilers might well OBJ.
ject shat since the precedent has been set that
q State can seccde at pleasure from the Con-
federacy, there ts q seeming recognition that
change is to be the order Of things IN The new
government The new moon, It is said, ia
emb}cmatic Of the new government, but do it's
fathers never expect It to grow Old. II this
were the object, why not have the young erey
| eagle? The grey might have been very easily
distinguished from the bald eagle, and to ,oui
mind there is no device Of beast or bird, tree
or flower, that looks 80 imposing and SO ap
propriate aa the majestic grey eagle. Besides
we naturally connect Republics with eagles II
our imagination. VINO dotR~1ot remember
with what pride the Roman regarded the eagles
Of his country, aud with what pride the Aneri
cans refer to the eagles Of the Onion upo1

TERRIBLE AFFRAr.-N~e learn from Mr.
Chas. W. Mumford, o. the Louisville & NASH
vile Railroad, that a terrible and prrhaps fatal
affay occurred near Eliz4bethsowu, Ky, on
Saturday. ur. Thomas Fl. Duncan, mer-
chant Of Eizaberhtown, paid a visit to his
brother, Hewson Duncan; who resides near
Stephensburg, with the view Of seeing his
mother, who had been an invalid for number
Of years~ While there AN a!teI cation occurred,
between the brothers, in reference to the
treatment which Mrs. Duncan had received,
in the midst Of which, UeWson ordered
Thomas away, at tho same tiue presenting a
shotgun. Thomas drew revolver aud shot
Hewson through the neck, intlictsug, in Ill
probability, fatal wound. Hrw=on's son
then caught up the gun, and beal his Uncle
Thomas most thockingly over tho head with
the weapon, whereupon, Thomas tired upon
the youth, the ball taking effect in the abdo-
men. None Of the party were Iii cd, although
it is feared they are fatally wouuded-Louis-

An Armory MT Chicago.

Chicago being the great commercial point
Of the West-the centre OF the whole western
trade-there is want of National Armory
to be established fo- the use OF the North
west, which would be OF immense service in
the equipment Of troops, IN case Of an inva-
sion, and a. the subject has been agitated, We
hope that those who represent the interest Of
Illinois in our national councils will bring it
before the new Government abuut to be lnau
gurated- We also need a national foundry Of
cannon and proje titles for the quali:y OF the
material used, and the test OF the same would
have more csacurity under Government officers,
and subject the War Department to 4 much
less expense, than being obliged to require the
aid Of private foundries.

neighboring restaurant, where the health Of
the honest driver was drank by all.
