REBEL LOSSES IN BATrLr.-Among the uni

have published of their losses in battle, that o.

to have been five hundred and 80 it has BEEN

little more than two to our one. As long as

GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN NOV ~, 1901
The Calamities of the War Oh the People
Of the South

No one, who reads the accounts that are daily
reaching us through newspapers of the South,
can fail of being deeply impressed with the al
most universal distress and deprivation that
prevails among the masses of the rebel States.
And yet we know that, owing to the policy
strictly enforced on their journals, all the worst
features Of that distress are carefully concealed
from public view. OF this distress, the wealthy
and aristocratic classes of the South know COM
paratively nothing. The calamity scarcely
touches them, but falls on the common people
who, though composing more than three-fourths
Of the white population, are allowed, in reality,
no part in the government, and whose lips, by
the tyranny of their rulers, are sealed against
complaint. But they cannot long be kept down.
! Indeed, the long stihed voice of hunger is al
ready breaking out in their cities, and coming
up in tones that arc evidently alarming the
guilty leaders, who have caused all the distress.
The mayor of Macon, Georgia, has issued an
address warning all against specializing in bread
stuffs, and plainly intimatng his fears " of
bread riots among the exasperated people. y
And the papers of Nashville, Norfolk, and 9TH
er cities, raising similar notes of alarm and
yet Winter, the season most dreaded for dis
turbanccs of this kind, has yet scarcely COM
menccd What, then, may not those distur-
Dances be before Spring?
What, with the recent inroads of our arms,
and perhaps the still moro appalling danger
springing up among their own people, surely
the rebel leaders must have " beautiful prospect
before them.

Correction.

In our report Of the discussion on Monday on
the bill repeating certain sections Of the laws
Of this State against kidnapping, Mr.. Stewart
was made to say what be did not say. The err
roneous report, however, grew out Of the desire
of the Reporter to get the argument into as lit
tie space as possible.
Mr.. Stewards argument was in substance
that the laws ought to be repealed being in his
Judgment clearly in conflict with the Constitu-
ton, and Senator's in voting upon the pending
question, must pronounce themselves either for
or against the Constitution No reference wa;
in terms made to the - higher law" and GER
tainly no rcbukc was, either in terms or by i'm
plication, made " to those who on either side pre-
tend to be governed by higher law On the
contrary the right was distinctly conceded to
every man to obey the dictates of his own judy
ment and conscience, and to abide the consc-
qucnccs He said that such antagonism to the
authority Of the Government was, however, rev.
outionary, and analogous to the present atti-
tude Of the rebclious States and that the al
tentative presented in the pending question was
revolution or obedience. While we protested
to recognize the Governments as now constituted,
he preferred the latter alternative, and should
vote accordingly.

A Chance for the Curious.

We learn from Mr.. THOMAS P. UHL, that re-
Gently, while plUughtng in field of his fathers
farm, he turned human skull out from mound.
The mound was about twenty feet in diameter and
six feet in height After discovering the skull
Mr.. UHL's curiosity led him to search the mound
for further curosites, and it was not long till he
had exhumed six additional skulls, some very
large and others not more than three inches in
diameter. He, also, found stone tomahawk, a
flint dart, some eight inches in length and small
piece of iron about three inches in length. The
iron was rust.eaten till it was very thin. When
Mr.. UHL's father, GEORGE UHL, first came to this
county, some forty years ago, an oak tree was
standing on this mound which bore marks of age
and decay. 1t was three feet six inches in dame
ter, and many of the branches and much of the
bark had fallen off The curious can calculate
on tho age Of the tree, and from whence came
the iron. f|r.

A darling one, precious pet,
Has sweetly gone to sleep!
She IS so happy, now in Heaven,
Fond parents cease to weep!

With oil your wealth Of love;
You would not pluck from its bright place,
A shining star above.
And she is free from every care,
That mortal hearts must know;

A vacant spot is left at home,
That none can ever fill

Cancer Cured.

We are requested by Mrs. JAcon McCAUsLAND,
of Mechanic township, to say that some six years
ago cancer appeared in her mouth and continued
to grow until it seemed to be past cure. A num-
ber of physicians examined and pronounced it in
durable. Every remedy applied failed to give any
relief. In February, 1860, Dr.. A. L. w. Bow
ERs, of Winfield, Tuscarawas county, commenced
treating it with applications, and SO successfully,
thatin six months every appearance of the Cancer
was gone. The cure is so complete that no signs
remain Of the cancer having ever existed.
