Judge S. NJ. Breckenridge made pow
erful speech in the Missouri State Con-
vcntion day or two since, in which was
the following truthful passage.
l think may say, that without any
opinion on this subject that would justify
the charge, there is not to be found in the
State Of Missouri a single man Of marked
loyalty who has not already been denounc-
ed as an Abolitionist, when, in point Of
fact, he is as far removed from them as he
is in thought or sympathy from those who
prefer the charge. This charge has been
so often and so hippantly made, that
have come 10 consider it as, perhaps,
the most unfailing test of mans loyalty,
that he has been denounced as an Abo-
litionist. That man who has been so
successful in tempering his loyalty
throughout this struggle as to avoid incur
ring the hostility of the class engaged in
treason, and their sympathizers, to such
an extent as not to incur the application
Of that epithet, will not say he is not
loyal, but | will say his loyalty has, in III
probability, not borne any very distin-
puished fruits,

Wool Circular for June.

s. N. Goodale issues the following
circular for June:
About the goth of May, the weather
became stormy, und continued so, with
cold nights, until the second week in
June, which has retarded "wool gather
ing" in the country very materially, but
the few days of warm weather has dis
persed the army of wool-buyers who had
congrcgatcd in the city waiting for the
"heeces," so that through their demon
strations, we can now very readily dis
cover what the prices of wool are, which
opens higher than they talked at the be-
ginning Of the season. Forty to fifty
cents are the prices paid for medium
wool throughout the country; some
coarse lots are bought under, and fine
lots over so cents.
The excitement is in the medium wool
for which as to As cents are paid.
Notwithstanding the fact that a great
surplus of money, and tho near approach
of peace, which will enable our loyal
manufacturers to supply the loyal citizens
OF the destitute South, aud the great scar
city of cotton, which has been used in
place ol wool, and differing from many
people who believe that prices will
run up from 60 to 75 cents, am still Of
the opinion as expressed in the last circu-
lar, that when an average of the wool of
Ohio could be sold at 40 to 90 cents hold
ers should lose no time in closing them
out.
| had hop.d to'have seen not less than
four million pounds of the medium wool
offered at the State Fair sale in this city
in September next.
Can see no possible advantage in hold
ing this class Of wool, which now sells at
from 40 to 90 cents. / have no doubt a
very large exhibition of fine and choice
wool will take place, judging from the
inquiries, END will here say in answer to
many, that the plan adopted for exhibit
ing woods will be satisfactory to all,
drawings of which may be seen at my
Office.
Any quantity Of room will be furnished
for storing clips by themselves, designed
for premiums, if advised by the middle of
August.
Any information respecting wool, or
catalogues, will be furnished by address,

was one of the men in the House that
was voting with Cox and Vallandigham

In the Senate and in the House, the
men who were chairmen of the leading

on the side ofthe rebels; in short, il the

Appearance OF the Battle Field

A correspondent Of tho New York
Times thus describes the battle field
where Casey's division was surprised and
routed:
The scene Of atunequal and terrible
conflict the battle field, yet red with tn.
blood of It's victims, on which we are now
encamped-no pen can convey an ade
quate description of its revolving horrors
Everywhere about us are strewn all the
trappings ofthe surprised camp, trampled
IN the mire, or piled in heaps, to be con.
sumed by fire, while blistering pools Of
blood and new made graves interrupt oul
footsteps at frequent intervals.
Alabamians, olinians G eorgian ,ant
Virginians are buried ia long rows al
around us scarce dozen yards beyond
and all through the felled timber, anc
swamps, and woods and fields, lie hun,
dreds and hundreds of unburied dead
black, dishgured and corrupting, beneath
the sweltering skies-alI traces of rec
ognitlon gone, and myFiads of worms rap
idly reducing them to skele tons. Th,
woods, ior.milcs, present the same sick
ening and disgusting spectacle, and thou
sands Of unburried skeletons will indicat
this terrible battle field long after peac,
is restored. The stencil is intolerable il
many places, and the horses, which Ii
lhickly scattered upon the field are beinI
buried.

HOW THEY LOVE TO LIE.

Such quasi Union papers as the Seneca
A dvcriiser are continually asserting the
most bnre-lGccd falschoods about the cx
pcnscs Of the war, the only effect of which
is to encourage the rebels, discourage the
Union men and prolong the war. We
wonder how much jeff. Davis poys these
papers for doing his dirty work. They
would make the people believe that the
expenses of the Government are from
three to four millions a day, whereas the
official exhibit of Secretary Chase shows
that the daily expense docs mol reach one
million, and that the public debt is less
than $500 10000, Of uhich $50 900 900
rere contracted BY buchanan IN time of
peace. These papers know they lie when
they make such bare-faced assertions, but
they have All object to accomplish. They
expect honest democrats will suck these
yarns and cling to the old rotten organi.
cation, I'll! after the next election.
We never denounced the A drertiser
for exposing corruption H. high places
This is right aud Republicans have al
ways b,en foremost in exposing such ras-
calitlcs. but We do blame the A dperti-
ser for its wholesale charges against all
our public men without word of proof
to back these charges up. The great
majority OF these charges are withou;
foundation. We think this Adminstra-
tion 0S.ThJURy as honest as he one hat
preceded in-Ec0 The people have had
enough Of democratic finoncicring.
