Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-01-14
The CouspirarOrs Exposed.

In our abstract of "affairs at Washington
viii be found an exposure Of the plans Of the
Secessionists, BY which the Senators from
FlnriaA, Georgia. Alabama, Mississippi, Louis
lana, Arkansas and Texas, resolved to stay al
Washington to thwart the action Of the
Government, while at the same time they
telegraph to their several States to have all
the forts and public buildings seized
There is one simple thing which national
honor demands should follow this expose
That is, to arrest every one of those traitor
Gus Senators, and have them tried and hung
for treason. If they are not every whit as
guilty of treason as was Benedict Arnold or
Aaron Burr, then we fail to know the mean
ing of the word. The country demands that
the conspirators, who are thus acting the
part of advisers in the rebellion, and at the
same time spies in the Congressional Halls,
should be dealt with by the same common
law as any other felons. They are the arch
traitors who deserve the full penalty of the
law.
It viii be seen by telegraph that the House
members from the South are also in this
league. Very welI-let them share the same
fate.

- Gen. Scott is the largest man in the
American service. He is six feet six inches
tall, and weighs two hundred and sixty
pounds. He is seventy-four years old, yet his
health is good, and his whole system is appa-

doubtless, to his very temperate habits.
- Fighting men abound in the Office of the
New Orleans Delta. An editorial says -

ible parties can very easily be found by in

- Hiram Hamilton, of Stockton, Califor-

close Of his second season ne sold l03 stocks

ring the present season, are increased to

- Col. Peard, Garibaldfs Englishman," {"
says of rife shooting in battle: "Mind, if
you ever go rife shooting, use your rife in
a scientific manner. Recollect always not to
kill your man, but to wound him; then it
takes two men to carry him o., and those
two men never by any chance come back the

therefore, you may get rid Of six men at ev-
cry discharge"
- While a wake over her husband was
