| Mr.. EDIToR:--A correspondent Of last
weeks Cadiz Republican, who very appropri-
ately signed himself a."Dam phool," labors
very hard to convince the readers OF that
sheet that it is a very ridiculous matter to-
be conservative Republican" He Ieed
not have been so particular as to affix his
signature to the article, as the Broom ear,
marks betrayed its origin SO distinctly that
every person would know the class to which
the writer belonged. ~ 8smsa eal
There are conservative Republicans in
Harrison county-men who love their co un-
try--whose only prayer and greatest desire
is that the country should be restored to its
former greatness and prosperity. Men who
love the Union with as sine ere devo ton as
mortal man can know--who have been, and
are daily making sacrifices for its restoration.
They are not men of one idea, but men Of
large hearts, whose minds are not trained to
lore tte negro race abovs their country, and for
their Jensft sacrifice all that a patriot holds
dear 1key loUe the Union, and, as a conse
quence, hate the fanatics who are the de-
stroyers Of their country's peace. They are
Republicans, too, and stand upon the Chicago
/ Platform, and have for their leaders such men
as Lincoln and his Cabinet, Senators Harris,
Of New York and Cowen Of Pennsylvania,
and the great man Of their party, and they do
not consider themselves ridiculous because
they follow not such traitors as Sumner,
Lovejoy, Bingham, and the balance Of the
crazy ultra s. ssf es.H sT, ,S
The writer says, that Bingham has ability.
II he has, he has never shown it to any great
degree. During his long course in Congress,
he has acted as If he had never even heard
Of but the one subject. In.all his speeches
he has spoken but the same theme--the ey'
erlasting negro. Although the nation is sen-
gagged in Q great struggle for its very exist.

and making the whole country quake under

necessary to prosecute the war, Bingham,
although occupying The responsible post q

The Fair.


From present Indications, we think the
coming Fair will be one Of the very best ever
held in the county. Although al first there
appeared to be disposition manifested by
some to have it postponed on account OF the
war, that has all passed away; people have
commenced to see the folly Of such course,
and all are preparing to greater extent than
heretofore, to contribute to the Fair, and
have grander display than ever.
Harrison county has the material within
her borders to make Fair that cannot be
excelled by any county in the State. The
greatest wool-growing county in the United
States, and having a great many fine Sheep,
people from a distance, interested in this line
Of trade will naturally look to the Fair as
giving seme exhibition of her Improvement.
For fine stock Of every variety she cannot be
excelled. and no one can fail in being inter-
ested in the exhibition she is making in all
departments. ',aH Taao
BY this exhibition people can learn the
systems through which their ncighbors have
made improvements and learning, will pro-
fit by the example. BY assembling the fine
together qualities, the opportunity is given Of
seeing the different varieties, and judging
which is the best. This is the true method
that will bring about improvements in stock,
and improving will more fully develop the
resources of the county. .....-.... ss
Harrison county abounds in good mechan-
les, and it would benefit all if each one would
have some specimen Of his handicraft on ex-
hibition. 1t would do credit to the individual
and be fund of information to co lahorers
| in the cause. nat s-...t ~
Bring everything OF interest. Premiums
will be awarded to an endless variety Of ar
tcles, and it is your duty to bring th5m.---
Let us have good Fair and good time
generally. a ..E " e..
| Let all come, both old and young. Bring
your wives and children. 1t will richly re-
pay all. You Will gain enough information
to make the trip highly profitable. And
amid the ''wars ard minors of wars 1t is
highly proper that We should al NEE. togeth-

friends and neigh5ors in tine army. 1t cannot
fail to have a beneficial influence upon them

this coming winter, who would back
the efforts of Mcclellan and Halleck,
next Spring would, we verify believe,
see the rebellion in the struggles and
throes of dissolution. In England the
remedy for disaster to the government
is a change of ministry. 1t has been
tried there hundred times, and al
ways with good effect. Let us have a

Gossip From Now XorES.

The New York correspondent of the Bos-
ton Juurn0i writes as follows:
am told by what l regard as the very
best of authority that facts of great mo-
ment have been put into the hands OF the
President, in regard to the battle of Antie-
tam, which set out in an astonishing de-
gree the foresight and knowledge of the
commanding General, by which the army
was saved from being crushed by an over
whelming force. The statement shows
why the battle was fought at the time it
was, and why the victory was not followed
up.
Successful or defeated, General Burn
side can have little responsibility, as he
only fights by the Washington card. Gen.
Halleck scatters-Gen. Mcclellan concen-
trates. 1t is now question which will
win. Men from the seat of the war say
that Gen. Burnside is so hampered that he
has been heard to say that he must have
more freedom or he shall resign. l saw on
Sunday Brigadier General from Burn
sides army. He has furlough for twen-
ty days. He says he was informed by the
General Commanding that there would be
no fighting till his furlough was out. Pro-
badly winter quarters are the destiny of
the army of the Potomac.

Running in Debt and Gettin" Out
OF it.

The annexed creed of wisdom is from
Thompson's Reporter
Run in debt when the country is con-
tracted, but be sure you pay up when the
currency is expanded
From 1857 to the suspension of specie
payments in December, 1861, stringency
bore upon the currency, credits and trade
OF the country and even after the sus-
pension, for some months, the contraction
continued, for the reason that until Treas
ury Notes were made a legal tender cur
rency there was no safe way Of evading
specie payments. On the 2Jth of Febru-
ry, 1862, the act making Treasury Notes
legal tender was passed there being then
sixty millions Of Demand Notes outstand-
ing, all Of which were made legal tender.
debtors of all classes, including banks of
issue, were relieved from the danger of
specie demands.
We may therefore date the commence
ment OF the expansion from the 1st Of
March, 1862, not yet nine months ago.
During this time the increase ofthe Gov
ernment paper money has been, in round
numbers, one hundred and thirty-fve mil
lions; bank paper money, sixty five mil
lions; making Il total of two hundred mil
lions; and we may safely say that another
two hundred millions Of expansive ele-
ments, in the shape of Government Notes,
Certificates, Bank Deposits, Individual
Credits &c, have been added to the mo-
ney bubble Of the day.
The volume and velocity Of this expan-
sion admonishe5 us that it may eliminate
in an unprecedentedly brief period of dur
alton.
The question as to when is the right time
to pay up and get out of debt is an inter
esting one.
The philosophy OF running in debt and
paying debts is worthy Of more study than
the American people give it. We may
safely say that nine-tenths of our business
people rush into debt when it is easy to do
SO, and then are compelled to pay when it
is hard to DO SO.
1t will do to run in debt when q contrac-
ton has carried prices to a cheap point;
but when prices are high by reason of an
expansion, pay up; and if you have the
heart to make others suffer for your bene-
tit, get them TO be your debtors, that YOU
may make Ihcm pay when dollars are
scarce and property is cheap.
We do not say that the expansion has
reached its maximum, or that it is the best
time to pay up. We see no way for the
Government to do but to continue its legal
tender issues, and the banks will not have
occasion to contract so long as legal ten
der is abundant and available as redemp-
ton money.
Our object is only to turn the attention
Of our readers to the subject of the paper
money bubble, that they may take such
action as their interests may seem to re-
quire. 1t is q good time to get out of
debt, but whether the best time has arrived
is in our opinion very hard to tell

What u Rebel Officer SAYS.

\ recent letter from Warrenton, Vir-
ginia, says:
During our stay q number ot paroled
prisoners circulated through the streets
One Of these Gan Alabama colonel, who
had been captured on the 9th inst. stated
that he feared, from his Judgment Of the
detences of Mobile, that they would not
be long able to hold out against our naval
force. The distractions in the James
River he thought very strong, and he was
satisfied our gunboats would not be able to
demolsh them. He says the Southern
army in Virginia is now well provided for
Two months ago, being in Richmond, and
knowing the rebels to much need shoes,
he suggested to the Secretary Of War that
the hides OF the cattle killed in the army,
instead OF being thrown away, should
be dried and used for leather The
Secretary, to his surprise, said there was
no necessity, but that an abundance Of
shoes were coming from abroad. The
contracts were made, and the mode of
their introduction arranged. And sure
enough" said the Colonel, = they are COM
ing now as fast as needed" The Colonel
says that, on Il march, rebel soldiers do
not use the small shelter tents availed of
by our army, but either sleep in the open
air Or in huts OF boughs, hastily construct
ed. Much sickness constantly exists
among them, which is increased by their
apparent want OF ability to cook their food
III a palatable manner He considers them
far more shiftless and less adapted to emer-
gencies than our soldiers.
HIS FAITH IN THE CONFEDEEACY.
My acquaintance has a plantation near
Demopolis, Alabama, with many negroes.
The Presidents proclamation did not ap-
pear to disturb him he did not mention
it. He was quiet, countrytied man, who
had no part in bringing on the rebellion,
and appeared without vndictive feelings
against the North. Although he would
wheel quietly into line, in case Of a restor.
alton, his faith in the contederacy showed
itself by remark that either Lee, Long
street, or jackson, would bes the next
President. Considering that the term of
jeff Davis will not expire for five year,
the man seems hopeful.

A Washington correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Commercial gives an interesting
account of the Thanksgiving Dinner to the
Contrabands in Washington. There was
preaching, prophesying, and singing by the
white "pliilanthropists" and the negroes,
and among the incidents of the occasion
was the following, which shows the Negro
faith in the personality of the Devil:
A plethoric white man from Vermont,
listened to John the Baptist" on "de
prophesies" for some minutes, and broke
forth with mighty energy to assist in the
intricate work of expounding the Scrip
lures. Of coursehe was big with theory
about the Interpretation of the Prophecies.
lie was formdably in favor of the freedom
of the whole human race" and the ne
groes gathered around him in deep admir-
alton and reverent silence, which was
broken only by pious CALCULATIONS, intend
ed to express appreciation beyond the pow
er of words. But the fat Vermonter was
not content with delivering himself on the
slavery question. He became excited with
himself and roared like q threshing ma
chine, and proceeded to tell all that he
knew on all subjects. He declared there
never had been war in Heaven This
great country was Heaven, and the war
now going on was the war therein. One
third ofthe stars had fallen, &c. &c. From
this point he proceeded, by easy stages, to
the declaration, which he made with
most appalling emphasis ' There is
no such thing as personal Devil"
Now, ii there is any one thing the
unmit'gated negro believes in, with partic-
ularly pungent vigor, it is the Devil. 1t
seemed to be a good opportunity to head
OFF our eloquent friend, and bystander
interposed with the awful interrogatory.
'Can it be possible that you do not believe
there is real Devil--with chain upon
his neck-who roars like lion up and
down the world, seeking whom he may
devour ?" The Varmounter in the midst
OF q dreadful silence, took two or three
deep breaths, and threw the whole power
of his lungs into his reply, which was in
the one word, "No!" The negroes were
absolutely Mortified at the skepticism of
the Champion of Freedom. In vain he
protested that he was not an infidel The
intelligent contrabands couldn't see it.
The disbelief in the Devil was the worst
sort of infdelity. But he presently re-
deemed himself, to some extent, by assert
ing, with colossal emphasis, that he be-
lieved the Democratic party was the
Devil. So far as this was understood by
the "large and appreciatiye audience" it
was approved. would respectfully and
affectionately urge upon all champions of
freedom, who may be disposed to act as
missionaries among the Africans. not to
express the faintest doubt of the existence
and imminent presence of a personal
devil. If he believes in the harpoon-tail,
the cioyen hoofs, and hideous horns, all
the better

THANKSGIVING HYMN.
Thy Will BE Done.
BY JOHN G.. WHITTIER.

We see not, know not, all our way
Is night: with Thee alone is day.
From out the torrents troubled drift.
Above the storm our prayer we lift,
Thy will be done!
The flesh may fail, the heart may faint.
But who are we to make complaint.
Or dare to plead in times like these
The weakness of our love of ease?
Thy will be done!
We take with solemn thankfiilness
Our burthen up, nor ask it less,
And count it Joy that even we
May suffer, serve, or wait for Thee,
Whose will be done.
Though dim us yet in tint and line,
We trace Thy pictures wise design,
And thank Thee that our age supplies
The dark relief of sacrifice.
Thy will be done
And if, in our unworthineSs,
Thy sacrificial wine we press,
If from Thy Ordeals heated bars
Our feet are scanned with crimson scars.
Thy will be done!
If, for the age to come, this hour
OF trial hath vicariOus power,
And, blest by Thee, our present pain
Be Liberty's eternal gain,
Thy will be done !
Strike Thou, the Master, we Thy keys.
The anthem of the deStinies
The minor Of Thy loftier strain
Our hearts shall breathe the old refrain.
Thy will be done

Another Rochester Semsation--A Dc.
iheAtic Dranra.

From the Rochester, New York Democrat
Yesterday afternoon, by direction of
Chief of Police, Mudgett, man named
James L. Crawford, alias James Warren
Waliord was arrested on a charge of Big
amy. Crawford appeared at Attica, early
last spring, and opened an office as a ply
sician. While located there, he became
acquainted with Miss -, sprightly
young lady Of 10 years of age. Miss =
was residing with q guardian, and was an
orphan, and heir to property valued at
$4,000 or $4,000. The itinerant NJ. D.
who represented his name to be James W.
Walford, paid his addresses to Miss -,
and after brief courtship Of three months
the couple were married. The young lady
married against the wishes of her guardian
and friends, who assured her that Dr. Wal
ford was q ''bogus institution" and that
he already had wife living, but she dis
believed all these statements, and was
duly married on the 10th Of July last /
Things went on swimmingly until about
three weeks since, when the couple moved
to this city, and took board at the house Of
a Mr.. Newton, residing on Sophia street
On Saturday last the woman who claims
to be his real wife, discovered the presence
OF her iaithless spouse in this city, and the
fact that he was living with another
woman.
His former wife resides with her mother
who keeps q boarding-house at No. 63,
Clinton street. She put detective upon
the track Of her truant husband, and lie
was arrested and taken before Justice Veg
man, who committed him to Jail for fur
ther examination. The woman states that
Crawford was married to her, in Auburn,
fourteen years ago, in the presence of her
mother and other witnesses, and that he
has lived with her most of the time since :;
and that he has travelled considerably and
stayed with her at her mothers, at inter
walls. She also states that he has visited
her almost daily during the past three
weeks that he has been in the city, but re-
fused to lodge in the house nights, as he
was employed in a store where he was
obliged to sleep. The pseudo M. D. pre-
tended to his young and trusting wife that
he had an office in the city, where his prac-
tice required most of his time. The con-
fiding creature believed all that he had
said, and will not now believe that he has
ever been married to any other person.
1t is the same old story; the rosy God
is blind, and will see no defects in the OBJ
ject of affection. She will not believe that
she has been basely betrayed and deceived,
and thinks that it is base plot to destroy
her happiness The young and injured
wife is detained as a witness at Mrs. Glenn
inson's Hotel. She is quite pretty in her
appearance, and is tastily dressed She
appears quite intelligent, and bears her
misfortunes like heroine. Her guardian
told her that, if she married against his
consent, she should not have dollar of
her property. The evidence is said to be
overwhelming against the man who has SO
basely wronged her. If such is the case,
her condition is forlorn indeed. ~.

From a speech by James T. Brady, at
the grand Democratic rally, in New York,
on Friday evening last, we quote:
not, 1 want those gentlemen who disparage tho
patriotism of the Democracy to understand that
we have always carried forward the fights Of
this country, and we mean to carry this war
forward to the same results, always keeping in
mind the Constitution of the United States as
we advance. 5tai4ia A'.lt
