WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec, 1860.
The undersigned have commenced the pub
lication, in this city, of weekly newspaper,
called the National Republican.
1t is printed on a large sheet q by AZ inch

below.
1t will contain all the original matter Of the
Daily National Republican, with the exception
of local news not interesting to country sub.
scribers
1t will give full reports of the proceedings Of
Congress, and of the other departments Of the
National Government.
1t will contain all the news of the day. for.
eign and domestic, markets, de-, DC, as well
as an original correspondence from all parts Of
the country. The miscellaneous department
will receive special attention, and, in all res
poets, the effort will be made to establish the
character Of the National Republican as a
FAMILY NEWSPAPER.
In politics, the paper will be Republican,
sustaining the incoming Administration of Mr.
Lincoln, but disclaiming, however, any preten-
sion to be the organ of the President elect.
There is no other Republican paper in the
District of Columbia, or in the vicinity of it.
and it is believed that recent events have open
ed to such paper an important sphere Of USE
full effort. The time has come, when the actual
administration of the Government upon Re-
publican principles will explode the misrepre
sensations which have made those principles sc
distasteful to the South.
But it is not only here, and in this vicinity
that the projectors of the National Republican
hope to make it useful TO the whole countr,
they offer journal which will discuss Nation
al politics from National standpoint, ant
which will never be swerved from patriotic
duty by any overpowering pressure of local in

How the Rebels Do It.

A correspondent of the St. Louis Re-
publican says:
A gentleman from Barry county, who
left home on Monday last, gives the par
ticulars of the shooting of Messrs. Cox and
Davis, near Galena, Stone county, by the
rebels. A considerable force visited Gae-
Ia, arrested these men and the son of the
latter, and after plunderng and stealing all
they could, started to return with these
three prisoners. When few miles from
the town, the prisoners were taken out and
placed short distance from a file of SOL
diers, who were to execute the cruel orders
OF their destruction. They were then told
that they could either run the chances of
being shot in their flight or stand still and
be shot. Knowing the chances to be about
equal in both cases, Mr.. Cox covered his
face with his hands and stood his ground.
The other two attempted to escape, and
one of them, the younger Davis. succeeded.
The father and Mr.. Cox were killed on the
spot. The cause OF their offence, my infor.
mants state, was none other than they had
been warm Union men, and that they had
been accused falsely, it is believed, of aiding
in taking certain goods from the store of Il.
W. Crawford violent secessionist, now
an officer ID the rebel army. Such deeds
of wilful murder, without even the forms of
trial, can find no parallel in the annals of
civilized warfare.

DEAR SIR IL have been honored by your
kind invitation as chairman of the appro-
pirate committee, to attend and address a
Union meeting of the citizens of Chester
and Lancaster counties, to be held at Hays
vile on the first of October. This | should
gladly accept, proceeding as it does from q
much valued portion OF my old Congress.
sional district, but advanced years and the
present state of my health render it impos-
sible
You correctly estimate the deep interest
which | feel, in common with the citizens
who will there be assembled, in the present
condition of our country. This is indeed
serious; but our recent military reverses so
far from producing dependency in the
minds of loyal and powerful people, will
only animate them to more mighty exertions
sustaining a war which has become
Inevitable by the assault of the Confeder-
ate States upon Fort Sumpter.
For this reason, were it possible for me
to address you, waving all other topics,
should confne myself to a solemn and earn
est appeal to my countrymen, and especially
those without families, to volunteer for the
war, and join the many thousands of brave
and patriotic volunteers who are already in
the field.
This is the moment for action; for prompt
energetic and united action and not for the
discussion Of peace propositions. These,
we must know, would be rejected by the
States that have seeded, unless we should
offer to recognize their indepen ence, which
is entirely out of the question.
Better counsels may hereafter prevail,
when these people shall be convinced that
the war is conducted, not for their conquest
or subjugation, but solely for the purpose of
bringing them back to their original posi-
ton in the Union, without impairing in the
slightest degree any Of their constitutional
rights.
Whilst, therefore, we shall cordially hail
their return under our common and glorious
flag, and welcome them as brothers, yet,
until that happy day shall arrive, it will be
our duty to support the President with all
the men and means at the command OF the
country, in vigorous and successful prose-
cuti0n of the war.
Yours, very respectfully,
JAMES BUCHANAN.
