THE entire Breckinridge party Of
1860 in this city have eased themselves
down into the embrace Of abolitiouism,
and we're the most enthusiastic support
ers Of the abolition ticket Of last Tues.
day. We believe their entire force con.
sisted of two forlorn iudividuals who
have just got into tho family in time to
be chief mourners at the funeral Of the
Republican patty. We congratulate
them on their prospect OF obtaining an
Office in the abolition ranks.-Buvlin0-

COMMISSIONED Corror SPRcULAroRs.
Tho Chicago Journal publishes the
following from it, war correspondent at
Helena, Ark:
"Afost grievous complaints are made
BY all soldiers returning from that place
that The army has been lett there to
sicken or die, and have accomplished
nothing but to gather cotton for the
benefit Of private spectators at the risk
Of their lives. Grievous complaints and
grave charges are made against Gen.
Curtis particularly, for the part he is
supposed to have played in The cotton
business.
The writer undoubtedly tells the
truth, though perhaps not the whole
truth. Gen. Curtis is one Of the few
abolition generals in the field, and Of
him we should expect nothing better
than to use his position to steal cotton
to speculate upon, while soldiers under
his command we're suffering for want Of
proper attention. The principal aim Of
these hounds is to make money out Of
the war, and they ere bound to do it,
no matter who Or what may suffer in
consequence.

FORGERY. = The Chicago Journal
claims that the Scott letter recently
read bv John Van Buren, at q democrat
10 ratification meeting in New York, is
q forgery, because the State Department
don't know how such letter-first hav.
ing been writtcn-could have got into
Van Burcn's hands. The reason for
the charge Of forgery will hardly hold
water. We believe that Gen. Scott did
write it. II not, it will not take either
him or Mr.. Sec. Seward a great while
TO- deny it. When Gen. Scott disowns
It's authorship, we shall believe it is a
forgery-and not before.

Gov. KIRKwooD AT HOME.-The
voice Of Governor Kirkwood's neigh.
bors is against him. Those with whom
he has lived for many long years
those with whom he has done business,
who have associated with him and who
have from day to day marked his walk
and conversation, do not hesitate to
throw him overheard. They hold him
in contempt, and tell him by their votes
that he is not man they care to respect.
He has told all his old friends and
neighbors about johnson county, that
all loyal men voted the abolition ticket !;
tt At every man who did not endorse the
Presidents emancipation proclamation
and prove his endorsement by voting
the abolition ticket, was an enemy to
the Government, and rebel against the
old flag. How have those same friends
and ncighbors hurled the lie into the
liars teeth How nobIy have they
answered the base traducer of honest
mems characters. johnson county puts
her foot upon bis neck; those who
know him best condemn him most.

The HOMESTEAD BII.L.-The following
important order is Just issued from the

March 20, 1861: u
The privileges ofthis law are extended to

lily, or who has arrived at the age of 81
years, and is a citizen OF the United States
or has declared his intention of becoming
such. and who has done no disloyal act.
direct or indirect. An exception, however.
to the foregoing requirements, as to age is
made in the 9th section Of the act, in favor
of any person who has served not less
than fourteen days in the army or navy of
the United States, either regular or volun-
teers, during actual war. domestic or for
eign. Any person coming within the fore
going requirements will from and after
january 2. 1868. have the right to enter
one quarter section, or less quantity of
unappropriated public land upon which
said person may have filed preemption
claim or which at the time of application is
subject to preemption at S1.25 per acre.
or eighty acres or less of such unappropri-
ated lands at $3.50 per acre.
FRoDUcTroSs OF lNDIASA.-It may not
be generally known that tobacco is fast
becoming one of the staple products of our
State. The counties of Warwick. Spencer
and Dubois have each sold 500. 900 worth
of tobacco this year. or 100000 for the
three counties. Large amounts have been
sold in other counties, and it would be in
terssting to know the income of the State
from thatoproduct. Q The hills along tho
Ohio river produce the finest grapes. and
indeed the crop is q paying one all through

EE- We make the following extrac,
from the late report of the Secretary of the
Navy:
The number of persons employed on
board of our naval vessels, including re-
ceiving ships and recruits. is about 3d.
900; and there are not less than $4,000
mechanics and laborers employed in the
different navy yards and naval stations.
When entered upon this department,
in March. 1861, there was but AZ vessels
then in commission, and but 76 vessels
then attached to the navy have been made
available. Most of those in commission
were abroad. and of the 1900 seamen in
the pay of the Government, there were, on
the 10Th of March, 1861. but 207 men in
all the ports anu receiving ships on the
Atlantic coasts to man our ships. and pro-
tcct the navy yards and depots. or to aid
in suppressing the rising insurrection.
We have at this time ahoat or approach
ing TO rapid completion a naval force of
427 vessels; there having been added to
those of the old navy enumerated in my
report Of July. 1861. exclusive OF those
that were lost. 353 vessels. armed in the
aggregate with l,0tI guns, and OF the ca

The annals of the worll do not show SO
great an increase in SO brief q period to
the naval power of any country. In no
respect during this war, has the Govern
ment been better or more economically and
faithfully served than in the additions that
have been made by construction and pur-
chase to the navy.
