Eond, McCulloch Ranger, and another
member Of the same company, were sworn
as witnesses.
Hammond dcposea: was taking supper
last night at Eofd's, and the conversation
at the table turned on the late affair at Roam

any one ever had been maltrcatcd under the
s!aEs and Stripes. He said he himself was
soldier and member of the Polish Brigade
That be had been dragged to the recruiting
neck, and forced to enlist. He said he was. q
citizen Of FMlade1phia--that the Star Span
Eled Banner had once waved over this city,
and would soon do it aSain. This man Paul
ding, at this, spoke up and said: That's so."
thin left the table and went into the front
room, and when Gold and Paulding came out
arrested Gold and told my con,rade to arrest
Paulding, and we carried them to the watch

From the Richmond Examiner. Feb ISL
1t WIS observed yesterday morning that the
walls In different parts Of the city were scraw1-
cd over with indamnatory and reasonable
uaottocs. The circumstance attracted but little
attention at first, as the chalked letters were
supposed to be the amusement Of some idlers.
On further examination, however, it WIS found
That these mottota we're displayed all over the
city with system and consistency that show
cd that there we're purpose aud organization
in this appeal to the multitude. Tue follow
ing arr some of these mot.oes; they arc writ
ten in large and efngular3y well formed letters,
st 6ldt1cnt points in the city, extending even
to the subusba, on Church Hill, and show
literary merit that could hardly be ascribed to
black guards, and is seldom found in mere

The Death Of EitZ .Eanes O'Hsrien.

Poor Lieut.. Fi,z O'Brien was sacrificed
by ar Ignorant Methodist minister. who
had received an appointment. as surgeon
through some political influence. and who
dressed his wound SO unski!fully that for
more than month the gallant soldier was
supporating his life away. A re section
of the join. of his arm by compe.en,
person caused tetanus. from which he
died. The last words he ever wrote were
to friend, describing the painful opera
tior.
"All my shoulder bone and a porioo Of
my upper arm have, been taken away. !

The next morning O'Brien felt liule

The one Idea.

We publish this morning report of a
speech made by Wendell Phillips in Bos
toa upon his return from his Western
tour. MIR. Phillips is man Of great abil
ity and he is a consistent AboliIionist AS
he fairly reflects the sentiments and pur-
poses OF tie Emancipalionists. we repro
duce his speech to enligh,en the public
shereupon. Philips has but one idea. the
Abnlitonists have bu: one idea the en-
franchisement of the negro. and placing
! i'm upon a social and political equality
with the white citizen. T, accomplish
that end they make all else subsidiary
Before the war. they were in favor Of. and
advocated separation Of ninleen States
from the Union to he divorced from sla-
very. but how they are Unionists, not
under the CONSTITUTION, but with the hope
tha, The military power may override that
instrument. and under the plea of"necess
ity" by edict. abolish slavery wherever it
exists. AS evidence OF this We make a
single extract from his speech:
Mr.. Lincoln. the nation. may abe lish
slavery; they can not save it. God ap
pealed first to the pu pits-they were bar
sed against his messenger; he appealed to
ballois-they we're too slo v for his method
he appeals TO bullets. and the slaves Of the
District are the first trophies of his VIC
tory.
So. according to Phillips s-the Yankee
abolilionist--it was God. no, the Southern
men. who brought about this war. He
says it is Gods "appesl to bullets" 10
abolish slavery. Phillips and his CO
laborers not only intend that the negro
shall be free, but he shall be the equal Of
the whites Hear him:
He came home with one idea. No
Yankee. no Buckeye. no Hoosier. no
natives. no foreigners, no black no white.
no German. no Saxon. in that beautiful
future we behold-only American citizens.

On SIMON CAMERON FROM HONORABLE
JAMES w. WALL, OF New JERSEY.
Sir--My attention has been called TO the
following paragraph appearing under your
telegraphic head. in your issue Of yester-
day. and dated Philadelphia:
"Mr. Wall is present here from Burling
ton, with number Of his friends. intend
ing to cbastse Mr.. Cameron for the injury
done him last fall in locking him up in Fl.
Lafayette
Tho above statement is sheer fabrica-
;ion. l visited Philadelphia on Tuesday,
to fulfill an engagement made on the
Saturday previous. l did not even know
of the distinguished presence Of the ex-
Secretsry of War in Philadelphia, and
was only made aware of it upon entering
the Continental Hotel, by the number oil
police who appeared to be watching my
every movement. Upon inquiring the
cause, learned TO my surprise that Simon
Cameron was a. the ho:el; and. appre
hensive Of a personal attack from me. had
thus protected "his exits and his enter
ance" by an armed posse The announce
ment. while it surprised me, at the same
time was gratifying. as p manifestation
that the ex- Secretary was just beginning
to have a realizing sense of the enormity
Of the wrong aud outrage inflicted upon
me An awakened conscience fist makes
coward Of a man; ba, sometimes ,he
very fear 1t Provokes is the harbinger of a
genuine repentance, that induces the
awakened, frightened sinner to "go and
ain no more" Let us all try and pray
that ii may be So in this particular inst
ance.
The ex Secretary may. however dismiss
his fears Of isonal chastisement. and
and his starred body guard The wrong
he has inflicted uEcn me is Of a character
that an assault upon a grey haired man
like him will not remedy. The grave
issue between himself and the man he has
SO foully wronged cannot be dragged down
for settlement to the low arena Of the bar
room of AN hotel. or decided by struggle
TO which blackguards only resort for n
settlement of their difficulties. His ow =:
conduct. according to all the rulos. has
placed him ontside the pale within whose
limits gentlemen alone have their Iemedies
for grievances of this high grade.
The final settlement, therefore. Of this
question. must be left to the legal tribu
nails of the country at the proper time =
Therein. if the great principles Of consti
tutioLal liberty are not mockery. and
our boasted freedom sham, may YET be
left place Of refuge for liberty against
despotism. the oppressed against the op
pressOr.

4 Question and Answer.
The Cedar Falls Gazette asks:

The Cedar Falls Gazette asks:
What If the Abolilionists did cause
the rebellion; will the proof of it preserve
the Union?,
To which we reply no; the proof that
bolitionists caused the rebellion will not
preserve the Union, but it ought to inilu
ence those who are in favor Of preserving
the Union to have nothing more To do
with Abolitionists ss partisans than to
oppose their Vaccinations.
As it was Aboli,iouis,s who caused the
rebellion, let Aboltionis,s be treated as
the dsuniohists that they are. and the re
bellion must cease. The rebellion is

North and South.

The people Of New York are discount
ing the conquest of the South with con-
iidence truly American. They have set
tied what they will do with The Ccnfeder
ate Presidep. and his rebel associa,es--
They have decided precisely when, how
and where they will hang Floyd and
Toombs and Breckinridge. and by what
process they will pu. 10 death the Captains
of the Nashville and the Sumter. and they
have generously concluded in their own
minds how, when sa.iatcd by these sacri
fees. they will cease from their great re-
venge, and ponr general amnesty over
the treason of the srppliant millions at
their mercy. All this is very c"mpli
meniary to the men who have so exc'ed
their hatred. and very consoiins 10 the
millions Of Southerners WIN have not yet
succumbed TO their power. II seems.
however. that we English a:e To pay the

that the last scene Of this transatlantic
tragedy is to be grand spectacle. during
