The Chicago Bible Society donated a Bible
to each of the Chicago volunteers. There is
a vast amount of excellent military informa-
ton in that book of books" between whose
lids cannot be found one word in support of a
disgraceful peace, purchased by loss of liberty,
a folding of the hands when nation is i'm.
periled.
Thus it will be seen that this was great
exciting and patriotic day in Chicago, whci
the clergy, the soldiery, the men, women, anc
even the children were enthusiastic with dem
constructions of liberty and love of country.

A Very Broad Hint.


The capitalists who loaned the Government
FIFTY MILLION dollars, adopted the following res
olution; q.
"Resolped, That this meeting, 10 assuming
the grave responsibility Of furnishing means TO
sustain the Government In this important crisis,
beg leave respectfully to expross TO the Pfesi-
dent of the United States its confident expecta'
ton that the Government will, without respect
TO party or personal considerations, 30 conduct
Its affairs in every department Of administration,
as TO insure vigor, integrity, economy and eff
cheney to the triumphant termination OF the
war"
This 10 simply saying in very mild terms, you
have not done right heretofore, but after this
try and do better. The N. y Times says:
"To the President, this significant resolution
cannot fail to imply several things. One is,
that there was, 10 the opinion Of the bankers,
q need to give him the warning IL contains.
The capitalists do fear that all is not right in
the administration of the Government, or they
would never have told the President that he
would be expected 10 enforce Integrity and
economy In the application Of the money
they are advancing But the resolution signihes
more. Il reaches into the future, and means
that II the President shall TAIL to consult the OBJ
vious wishes Of the nation In regard to the
'vigor, integrity, economy and eficiency' Of the
Administration in the prosecution Of the war,
the grave responsibility OF furnishing means
to sustain the Government will be dropped by
the very capitalists by whom 1t has been as
sumed." egsa sl9s .agA~c

Recently brakesman on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, named Frazier, having been injured
by collision, which he claimed was the resul
Of gross negligence on the part of the Com
pany's engineers, brough suit for damages
and got verdict for $5,775. The defendants
appealed to the Supreme Court, and after q
careful examination Of the case, that Court re
vsrsed the decision OF the Court below. The
grounds of the reversal are thus summed up:
can employer Is not necessarily responsible
to his employee for injury arising from the
negligence Of bis felloW-servant. But If he
knowingly keep In his employ rash, careless
and incompetent servant, and injury is thereby
caused to another servant, the employer Is re.
sponsible for the damage. II, however, the
habitual carelessness or incompetency Of the
employee be known to fellow employee, who
remains In the service without giving notice
thereof to the employer, and receives an injury
+therefrom, the employer is not responsible. =
Character for care, skill and truth must alike
be proven by evidenceof general reputation, no

Cali Won this Sustaining the Admin
istratiOn!

THE CApNEr.-There is q class OF quasi
traitors in certain parts of the Northern States,
the chief headouarters of whom are at New
York and Albany, who labor to promote the
cause of the rebels by stirring up dissension at
the North, and particularly BY endeavoring to
break up the Cabinet.-Phils. Bulletin.
And there is class Of editors in Pennsylva'
MIA and few other States, who belong to 81
MON CAMERON, and who receive every sugges'
ton in favor of removing him from the Wal
Department, and putting more able and hon
est man In his place, as high treason aud the
sin against the Holy Ghost that Is tnpardona'
BILE.
We think it highly probable that Pennsylva-
mia politicians will presently come to be esti'
mated at their true value.
The removal of Cameron, and the appoint
ment of Holt In his place, would carry JOY to
every loyal heart in the land.
Evidences of the inoompetency and dishon-
esty of Simon Cameron are every day apparent.
They are perfectly appalling. The President
thinks this is not the time to swap horses, but
he is mistaken-it is the very time to make q
wholesome change.
We desire our friends to distinctly under.
stand that the above is from the Cincinnati
Commercial, the mouth-piece of Ex-Governor
CHASE. now the Secretary Of the Treasury.
And yet the resolution of the Democratic Union
Convention denouncing corruption in the War
Department is called trsasonabls. Evidence Of
incompetency and corruption is "rERrEcrLY Ar'
FALLING" but Democrat must not say so.
Further on this point.

ga Great Nuisance.n


A petition is In circuntion among the Ger
man Republicans Of Illinois, praying the Pfesi
dent to remove Cameron, as q "great nui-
sance." The following 10 copy OF the peti.
tion:
ITO HE Ercsllsney, Abraham Lincoln, Prs,ident
Of the United States:
''The undersigned American citizens, having
come TO the conclusion, and sincerely believing,
that Mr.. Simon Cameron, your Excellency's
present Secretary Of War, is In every respect
wholly unfit for the high and, at the present
time, doubly important position your Excellen-
cy intrusted him with, and further believing
that he is in fact great nuisance to the coun-
try, would most respectfully pray your Excel.
lenoy 70 rid the nation and yourself Of the said
officer, and 70 replace him by q nobler and an
abler man, in whom all loyal citizens may con
fde.
"Discbarge Simon Cameron, and you have
won the country dozen victories!
1--WE, therefore, will ever pray, etc. etc."
The Ansdoty dee Wsstsas, Of Illinois, hope
the petition may be efsctual in removing th'
"public nuisance" from the Cabinet.

The letter was filled With secession sentiments.
The writer, young Southern woman eepouses

and expresses IN earnest wish that the war
against the Government may succeed. one

from the lines Of our army, and py cl.cu''oSs
and fatiguing route succeeded In entering the
lines of the enemy. She had then no difficulty
in penetrating to the camp at Manassas, having
given the enemy's pickets abundant evidences Oh
her sympathy with their course, and was permit
ted TO proceed to Richmond without molestatlon
of any kind.
Arriving at Richmond, her trunk was imme-
diately sent to the Postoflice in order that the
immense number of letters which IL contained
might be properly assorted and forwarded. Inc
writer adds, that so great was the amount OF
the correspondence which she had thus convey

This story, which comes to US upon the Dess

Payne. a

Fayhe.
1--WE publish this morning the correspondence
Of Gov. DRNSIsos and HrSRY B. PArSE' In re-
la.ion to one Of tho revolutions of the Demo-
cratic Union Convention. Tne resolution re-
ferred to is that denouncing the "corruptlon'
extravagancs and fsvoritism" OF the war
Department Of the State and Federal Govern
ments. It's 90 very strange that the Governor
did not, previous to this, address letter 70 .ne
Cincinnati Commercial. Gas.tes and other Oh nis
political friends on the subject. Since tine war
comm menced these papers have, day after DAY
charged incompetency, proalgacy' corruption
and fayoritism, upon the war managers In Do'n
the National and State Administrations bu'
the Governor has not deigned to notice them
though they are all and each regarded responsi'
BILE.
So paluable was the incompetency OF the meu
who we're managing the war matters OF inc
State. that the House Of Representatives, the
majority of which were political friends OF the
Governor, passed resolution by nearly a unan'
imous vote, requesting the Governor to dismiss
men of his ''staff." and appoint men who were
competent to discharge the duties Of their re-
spective Offices.
Whether the outrageous contracts given out
at the commencement Of the war, were the re-
suit of corruption" "favoritism," or "incom'
petence," time and investigation will determine
We have not the space or the inclination, al
present, to 20 into the matter at this time The
Governor reported to the Legislature in re-
sponse to resolution, enough to satisfy any
man tha. the contracts were outrsgeously ex'
trayagant and unjustifable.
For instance, he made contracts without puo-
lie notice, for say ten hOussnd uniforms at SIX
TEEN DOLLARS each, two thousand OF which were
let to o'HARRA l. BREYFooLE, of this city.
These uniforms cost the contractors less than
ten dollars, making q clean profit on the ten
thousand, Of SIXTY THOUSAND DoLLARs. A con-
tract for four thousand overcoats was let at
80 65. We are informed that the coats cost
abou. six dollars, leaving q profit OF about
$4,000. These overcoats are now furnished
for seven dollars and twenty-five cents, and we
suppose, at this, the contractors have respect
able profit.
We need not allude to the contracts for sub
sissence, at fifty cents per day, at this time
The whole State has condemned them.
Whether these contracts were let through
motives Of "favoritsm," or from incompetency
or corruption, we leave our readers to deter
mine.
As to the very liberal offer made BY the Gov
ernor of the use of his "staff" and the records
of the Executive Office, we will only say, that
ali this will no doubt be examined by lessla-
tive committee, who will have more time to
devote to that subject than the committee on
resolutions. Indeed we have no malice toward
Gov. DESNrsoN; his fate at the hands Of his po
litical friends has excited our sympathy and
commiseration. When his political friends
sustain him, Il will be time enough for US to
