MAKE HIM CAPTAIN.

We have just learned from an un
doubted source, that boy named Geo
Deweese, 1G years of age, living a few
miss from Ripley, in jackson Co., Va.
on Tuesday last, killed two bandits o.
one of the rebel squads, which infest
that region. Capt McCloud, who heads
guerilla band prowling through the
country, robbins and numbering Union
men, came to the house ola Mr. Deweese
at tie place above named. There were
three of the rebels, and Deweese, his
son George, and Il neiyhbor nance
Slaughter, was their intended prey
McCloud. the rebel leader, shot Mr.
Slaughter in the face, making terrible
but not supposed mortal wound, when
George seized rifle and shot McCloud
dead. The other two rebels attempted
to break in the door, when one Of them
forcing it partly open, got his hand

Outrageous Conduct.

On Wednesday last, as the steamer
Fanny McBurnie was on her way from
Cincinnati to Marietta, when below
Greenbottom, the officers discovered a
solitary man on the Virginia shore,
hailing the boat. Little suspecting foul
play, the boat made for the shore
When within 3 few rods of the landing,
they were surprised at seeing the man
retreat with all haste. Presently,
however, and before the boat had time
to back out, about thirty five despera-
does, armed to the teeth, and headed by
the notorious DR.. Jenkins, rHshed down
the bank and boarded the steamer
They took control of the boat, and soon
made known their object, which was
that of plunder
Summoning the passengers, they drew
them up in line, and demanded their
private arms, under threat of being sum
marily treated with if they refused
Having collected all their means of de-
fense, they then began searching the
boat. They found one case of revolvers
and one of swords, which they appropri
ated, and took ON shore. They then
asserted their right to take the whole
cargo and destroy the boat, but in con
sideration of cold acquaintance sake,
they left it without further damage. We
have this from one of the passenger,
who was on the boat, and who is a resi-
dent of this place. Il is certainly time
that such outragas we're put stop to il
this region. <

We publish to-day, to the exclusion
of many other articles intended for this
week issue, the Message of President
Lincoln to the Extra Session of Con-
gress, which convened on the 4th inst
/ 1t is needless to ask for it careful pc
rusal. No State paper was ever looked
for with greater interest, and none was
ever read so universally as this will be-
Under the circumstances of the country,
this first Message Of President Lincoln
has been looked to with intense solici-
tude, not only by the loyal citizens and
disloyal traitors of this country, but by
the statesman of all Europe as we'll
The fate of millions seemed suspended
on the fact of whether the President
was equal to the great occasion. The
doubt is solved, and the verdict of ev-
cry man, not at heart a traitor, will be,
that he is the ri ght man in the right
place.
We have not time or room for exten-
ded comments, nor does it need them.
For calm, clear, comprehension of the
position of our country-tor forbear-
ance of all partisan feeling-for digni-
fed truthfulness of statement-for un.
shaken confidence in the sentiment Of
eyalty and patEiotismss: iasssthe.sp papFls.
to carry che Government triumphantly
through tie storm oftreason now howl
ing around it-in short, in all the qualities
of statesman, this Message shows Lin
coin as superior. to the narrow minded
partisans who Immediately preceded him.
as truth and patriotism are superior to,
lying pretension, and that selfshness
that would ruin the fairest Country in
the world to crafty the morbid revenge
of thwarted ambition.
Let every one read the Message. It
but requires the cordial support of Con-
gress in upholding the Executive, to in
sure the speedy suppression Of the ter
rible rebellion through which wicked
men hoped to blast the present prosper
ity of thirty millions of people, and in
overthrowing the Government of the
United States, blot out the hope Of free
dom throughout the world.
History, in all its blood stained rec
ords, has no single chapter which por-
trays crime so utterly and irredeema-
bly, devilish as the conspiracy for the
destruction of constitutional freedom in
our country. Thank Goi, it is not
given to mortals, however wicked, to
succeed in so unnatural crime. The
':dead point" is passed! The Govern
ment stands firm The loysl people
have but to be true, and our country is
saved!

GOOD FOR THEM.

An Ohio Company in Gen. McClel-
lan's army in Western Virginia, was re-
Gently disarmel, and disgraced before
the whole Regiment. The cause was,
that some six or eight of the mea, with
the knowledge of the Captain, were found
pilfering in the style of the Secession
lists. This, not being in the tactics of
the loyal soldiers, met, as it should, the
stern con lemnation Of the General
The whole Company was considered dis
graced by the small number who proved
themselves unfit for soldiers, by their vile
conduct, and to wipe out the stigma
from the army, was disarmel and de-
graded in the public manner stated
Bat on the earnest petition of the limo
cent majority, and the loyal men ot
other companies, the order was revoked
so far as the company was concerned
and only the Capt. and the guilty par,
ties were finally driven from the service
They were sent to Columbus under ar
rest
This is as it should be. Let the Sc
eessionists have all the glory Of theft
and plumber The armies Of the Union
should be kept pure from all dishonor,
able acts, and men capable of commit
mitting them. We sincerely trust thai
every outrage committed by any rufian
who may find his way into the ranks Of
our noble soldiers will meet with the
most summary punishment. Let oul
troops return with unsullied honor.
We see that Gen Patterson has ISSUED
an order directing that every soldier
under his command who is detected il
pilfering, or other outrage upon the
property or persons of the private citi
zens, shall be instantly shot. This con
duct is in noble contrast with the pratt
cal proceedings Of the rebel forces. Blu
it is what is due to the cause in which
we are engaged

Local Papers.


In these piping times of war when
men are impatient to get the news, they
are apt to neglect their home papers and
read only the city dailies. Anything
of metropolitan character is greedily
deyoured, though there may not be one
grain of truth to the column, while the
local paper which sits the wheat from
the chaff and cont9ins truthful digest
Of the whole, besides all the local news,
is sneered at and voted bore. Alas,
how easily people are humbugged!
Daily papers are good things in their
place, and we have no objection to peo-
pie taking and reading them; but if they
do so, to the exclusion of their home
papers, they will find themselves very
considerably taken in.-Buchcye State.
