How the Civil War gees Oh ia NissOu-
ri.
We published an account of the hanging OF
Capt. Benjamin Sharp and Lieut.. Jaeger, near
Martinsburgh, OH the North Missouri Railroad, by
the rebels. We have now the awful retribution
visited upon the perpetrators of the foul deed
Sharp and his companion were hung on Friday
On Saturday morning, body of Col. smith 8 Zou-
ayes went to Danvie and arrested four citizens,
who were concerned i'll the transaction. Takin q
them to the outskirts OF the town, they made them
get down upon their knees and shot them while
in that position. Their bodies were then carried
back to their families by their neighbors, some of
whom had been brought along tor the purpose. The
names of the men shot were Granville Nunley,
Robert Terrill, lawyer, and formerly editor of
the Danville Herald, ana man named Hughes
and his son. Nunley was not Immediately killed but
received ball through the breast, from which he
died soon after being taken home. The others fell
dead, each receiving several balls in the body
The same day two men were shot near Mexico ,un-
der the following circumstances Capt. Smith,
commanding a company of cavalry, learned that
half dozen of the men implicated in the hanging
of Sharp and Jaeger were in house about three
miles from town. They Immediately started to
capture them, and while approaching tue house,
q woman standing at the gate gave the alarm
to the rebels, who we've inside eating din
ner. They Immediately mounted their horses and
attempted to escape, when the cavalry pursued
and ned upon them, killing two, one ofwhom was
Capt. Moultrie of rebel company from Mexico
The rest escaped.

" VINO DOES THE FIGHTISG ?''-The poll
tics OF the military who are now defending
our Government against treason, is Of no
consequences whatever, but the Argus never
loses an opportunity, in season OF out Of sea-
s0a, % turn every thing 70 some partizan
account. 81 last week it raised the above
question, and declares that majority Of tho
field officers Of the First Regiment arc not
Republicans, and that Of the Bradford Com
pany. ''0f 26 who went from Bradford village
only fire are Republicans, and that Of the
officers. '-tw, out OF fVe are Republi-
cans Now If this was true it would
be Of no consequence but il the next place,
the statements CT the Argus are uuquallfsdly
false. At least two-thirds, and probably
moye, of the entire regiment are Republicans.
We wrote to an intelligent gentleman in
Bradford, to know about the politics OF that
company-not of course that we believed tue
story of the ArguS, because we didn't, but
| in order TO see how big falsehOOd he had
! told, and found it was even bigger than was
supposed here, where people know pretty
we'll how much to subtract from his state
ments. Tue truth Is Just this: OF the twelve
officers, olly three were democrats; ; four whigs
or Bell-Evcret-men, and IRE repGbhcdn5.-
One Of the democratic officers did not go
fnally, and his place was fiied BY republi-
can, thus increasing their number to SIX. to
only tloo democrats, and four whigs Tho
Ar9u, says but five republicans went from
Bradford village. The truth Is, Is rePubli-
cans wen: from the village, and 10 democrats,
leaving doubtful, and of the whole eOmpa-
nv, they stand, democrats 10, whigs ), ard
repu bic1ns 40, and II doubtful. who were
mainly those who came from cut Cf town and
10. known. Dividing the doubtful. which
,s far more than the proportion of democrats
IN Vermont, and we have 48 republicans and
| 80 for all the others, leaving out two or three
Freuchmen who have never taken any pare
in American politics. Thus the republican,
have clear majority in the Bradford compa
| nv, and the statements of the Argus are thus
most eaectually exploded. The regiment is
commanded first by Col. Phelps Of Brattls-
boro, and second, by Il. Col. P. /. Wash
burn Of Woodstock, both staunch repuoh-
cans, but we claim nothing special on thai
account. Politics is of no account only with
such as the Argus who sympathize with the
South. "Who does the Sighting ?-SsAo,es
