Ey We are indebted TO our friend.
john GALLOWAY, for n late Iowa paper,
from which we extract an article entitled,
"Some Mistakes" We do this simply
to show the tratorous character and SEN
timent of great majority of the aboli-
ton falsely called republican, prints of
the day. Democratic presses, all over the
land, have been squelched without mercy
or consideration, for nothing else save an
unalterable determination to stand by the
constitution and the Union, while the or
gans of sectionalism, fanaticism, and dis
union have been and still are permitted
10 continue their terrible, blighting des-
tructive work Of running our government
unmolested. Read the traitorous extract,
We who advocate the suppression of loyal
democratic newspapers, by mob violence

How THE DISPATCHES WERE SAVED.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Daily NewS learns that when Mr.. Sill
dell was taking leave of his wife on board
the Trent, he placed bis dispatches in her
hand, told her to go to her cabin, sit at
the portfolio, and that if an attempt was
made to take the box from her, to drop il
into the sea. Mrs. Slideel obeyed his or
ders, was not molested, and took the dis
patches safely to England.
