ET Within the last week, mirubile
dietu, two Hibernians having not the fear
Of public opinion and established custom
before their eyes, as it appeared upon good
and sufficient testimony before the court,
did imbibe certain quantities of stimulus
with malice prepense, whereupon, beocm-
ing eShilerated beyond that point at which
forbearance ceases to be virture, certain
officials likewise knowing the same, they
were straightway caused to appear before
the Recorder and answer for the same as
unto them charged, in that, upon certain
day, as set forth in the said indictment,
they did then and there become seized or
possessed of certain unknown potations,
liquors, wines, and did wilfully, and against
the public peace and quiet of the loyal
and true city of keokuk, in the County
of Lee and State Of Iowa, become drunk
and intoxicated herewith, and did cause
an affray, noise or other disturbance to be
enacted and done within and upon the
streets of the said city Of keokuk; where
lore, upon due hearing and testimony, the
court adjudgcd that they be fined and
lnucted in the sum of three dollars each,
good and lawful currency, and that fur
thermore they do pay or transfer unto
this court the additional sums of money
against them entered as costs and fees in
this suit !; which being done, the parties
were dismissed. X. G. r., Vol. 2, Oh.

Sensible Talk.

The Cincinnati Times, speaking of the
effort to distract our citizens Of the loyal
States by party issues, has the following
sensible language:
"If they had any doubts as to the com.
parative valor, manhood, and civilization OF
the two sections, they will now have abun.
dant reason 10 be convinced that We are n
nation Of freemen, valiantly defending our
liberties by every honorable means of war
fare, against a horde of ruthless savagcs
who shun the open field, fight only with
overwhelming numbers, behind masked
batteries, use every petty advantage un-
known to any but barbarians, slaughter our
wounded and dying men, and inhumanly
deny our "red-shirts the ordinary rites Of
burial.
No-no-let us cease all idle croaking.
and stop this miserable tn quoque sort Of
quarrel We cannot permit anything Just
now, TO disturb the unanimity among loyal
men, or the concentration of all our strength
into one focus.
Let us simply take and use this reverse
as an invaluable lesson, and so long as We
do so, we have nothing to fear. The disas
ter at Bull Run has only increased, at home
our strength and reliance in our good
cause, while, as to its effects abroad, nc
foreign statesman can bo so shortsighted
so thoroughly misunderstood us and the
terrible energy with which we have taker
up arms, as to think our temporary reverse
affords them any inducement for holding
out aid to those who arc aiming deadll
blow Mt our national existence.

| The above is the language of Mr.. Bean, but
! it applies to no one with much force and
truthfulness as it does to himself Having rem
dered himself infamous by his opposition to
the Government, and a stencil in the nostrls of
decent people by his wanton attacks through
his paper on private citizens, and by that means
losing the patronage of large number of those
who have heretofore supported him, he now re-
sorts, as a last hope OF sustaining his decaying
paper to system of Matchmaking. Let our
readers imagine, for moment, the kind of OBJ
ect that would demean himself to so despica-
BILE business. A description of such char
acter is unnecessary. Our readers have all
seen or read of such person. Mr.. Bean is a
fair type of the race. He hesitates at nothing
that may realize him few pennies. His attack
on Messrs. Everett, Stilwell and Clapp, was for
the purpose of soaring little hush money out
of them in the way of patronage. This was his
object when he attacked most of the business
men in town by saying, "A Democrat can by
comparing our advertising colums with those ol
the Journal see how far politics has worked in
this matter" Bean also wishes his readers tc
understand that the business men of Fremont
have withdrawn their patronage from him be-
cause he isa Democrat Nothing is farther from
the truth. Bean has received from the Repub-
licans of Fremont more advertising patronage
than he has from the Democrats, and they now
withdraw their patronage because he is hGitorl
That's the secret He is openly denouncing the
Government, and no doubt wishes its destruc-
ton. The Republicans being Union, Liberty

Are you from foreign land, and did

oath is recorded on earth as well as in
Heaven.
Were you born on this glorious inher-
tance of liberty, an heir to the protection
Of the stars and stripes9 Then your duty
is also plain; for an obligation stronger il

cuse the American citizen for such crimes
Each ono has his own separate duty t
perform, and the errors or faults of on

acts or language of tho others.
The man, who at this hour Of his country
peril, thinks more of his party, and som
petty little office it may bestow, than h
does of liberty, the constitution and hi
country's flag, is base wretch, undoserviul
