FREMONT New York Com
naerciaz Advertiser concludes an article
on Fremont's late labors in Virginia,
by saying: "In fact the rapidity Of his
movements on this occasion, and the
modesty of his language used after the
sanguinary battle at Union Oh urch.
remind one of the career of Mcclellan
in Western Virginia last summer.
Fremont has honorably won his spurs
and if he committed errors in Missouri
last year, he has now by unremittine
toll achieved success, and deserves
commentator. He has doubtles prof
ted by the criticisms that his mistakes
called forth.

To BE HUNG-BALL AND CHAIN

To BE HUNG-BALL AND CHAIN
About three or four days ago the house
No. 63 Toulouse street was entered by
three men claiming to act under author
ity from Gen. Butter, for the avowed
purpose of searching for arms, but III
order that their contraband enterprise
might not be frnitless, they robbed t III 9
house Of sl,445 in gold, silver and
bank notes. Of this amount about
$500 was found on one Of the parties
when arrested, and returned to the
owners. The balance was probably
squandered in lewd company, or con
cealed so that it may never be recov-
cred. The offenders were arrested on
Thursday evening and tried before the
the commanding General In person.
Their names are StaniSlans Roy, Pat
rick Carey and James McDonnell.-
General Butler sentenced Mcdonnell
to FIVE years imprisonment, at hard
labor, with ball and chain, and con-
demned hoy and Carey to be hung by
the neck until they are dead, On Mon
day next, between daylight and noon.
Notice will probably be given Of the
place of execution,-N. O. Delta June
l4th.

tons offered to the Convention have

olutlons, without debate.
Tie Convention reassembled at P.
NJ. Stirring speeches were made by
Hon. Henry Secrist, Martin NJ. Ray
and Geu. Breekel, all claiming to be
life long Democrats. They advocate
a vigorous prosecution Of the war, and
if necessary for the preservation ofthe
country, the extinction OF slavery
The Convention then proceeded to

State, Albert Lange; Treasurer Of
State, Jonathan ". Harvey, all repub-
Hcans, and the present incumbents At

The people Of ind. render their pro-
found thanks to Union soldiers every
where, and deep gratitude to Indiana
troops while conquering Southern trail
tors. The people will condem at the

tons, Gov. Morton made. a patriotic
and stirring speech. Convention adj
.ourned amid great enthusiasm.

S1M1LAR1TY.-In each ofthe Wausau
papers,, which are published on the
same day, we notice an editorial urg-
ing that the coming Fourth be cele-
bfated by the people of that village,
which with only one or two variations,
are clothed in the sane language.
Have Hoffman and Chase struck hands,
formed co-partnershlp, or does this
coincidence happen upon the same
principle that great minds often run in
the same channel :? Both are well
posted as to the ''prophesy'' of old
John Adams.

The PER DIEM QUEsr1oN.-The
question of the right of the members
of the Legislature to receive per diem
during the recess, from the 18th Of
April to the Sd of June, was argued
before the Supreme. Court yesterday
afternoon, on the application of John
Boyd of Fond du Lac, for writ of
.manaamus compelling the State Treas
urer to pay such per diem. The case
was made up. as we understand, by
agreement to the parties so far as the
facts are concerned, and the whole sub
iect presented to the Court.
James Ell. Knowlton, appeared as
counsel for Mr.. Boyd, aud Attorney
General Howe and Joseph Mills, Ill be-
half Of The State.
The question is now with the Court,
and what the result will be, Of course
is not known; bat if it should be in
favor Of the paying of this per diem,
the sooner our Constitution is amended
in this respect, the better it will be for
the State.-Jiudiso7a Journal 1871.
