Colfax and Turpie at South Bend.

An eyewitness" (who we are assured
by responsible parties did not arrive at
South Bend until eleven o'clock P. NJ, of
the day on which Colfax and Turpie spoke
at that place) says in last weeks Ply
mouth Democrat, that Colfax behaved
himself very badly during the joint discus
sion at the above place. When 'eye-wit-
ness" penned that article he knew he was
penning falsehoods for the purpose of mis-
leading the minds Of the people Of this
place. The following article, signed by
two Of the oldest and most respectable cit
liens of South Bend, sets the matter in
its true light anu places the seal of wilfull
and malicious mendacity on the article Of
"eye- witness"
SoUrH BEND, Sept. %. 1862.
We were at the joint discussion here,
between Messrs. Turpie and Colfax, last
Saturday. standing near to and between
them. In Mr.. Turpe's closing speech, he
charged Mr.. Colfax with having called
him in the Register gambler and drunk
ard. Mr. Colfax denied it. and said it be-
ing new matter ought not to be introduced
in Turpie's close, by the rules of discus
sion Mr. Tnrpie turned and struck to-
wards Mr.. Colfax with paper in his hand.
saying very angrily. shut your mouth.

then instantly put his hand to mis- breast

great excitement prevailed in the crowd.

George. two Of Mr.. Colfax's friends, rush
ed to Mr.. Turpie's side AMI told the crowd
he should be protected in Smoking till his

all to hear Mr.. Turpie through. Mr.. Tur-

Last Saturday . man dressed in sol
dier's garb made his appearance in This
place, protesting to have authority to ar
rest Knights of the Golden Circle and all
disloyal persons. He stated to some of
our citizens that. he was Lieutenant and
that he belonged to Col. John A. Losan's
staff; that he was on his return from Wash
ington where he had taken % x. G. C.'s
whom he had arrested in Illinois, and had
accidently been left here that morning
By dint of inquiries he.obtained the names
of some five or six persons in this place.
who were suspected Of being disloysl. In
a short time he was seen conversing with
enc OF the most conspicuous of the number,
and innocently enough revealed to him
that he was authorized to arrest all per.
sons suspected of disloyalty to, the Gov
ernment. and that his name with five or six
others had been given him as belonging to
that class. '' ti' ''h'. % E
1t is more than suspected that the fel
low was himself X. G. c., and took this
method Of finding out from undoubted
loyal men who were suspected traitors in
this. community. so that he might give
them due warning. He did so, and we
learn that it created quite a fntter in GER
tain quarters Some of them even threat
ened to burn up the town in case one OF
them was arrested. Don't tear your shirts
gentlemen. You can frighten no one by
such threats. The time has come when
those who spout treason will be held &C.

and sedition another. The latter the Gov
ernment seems determined not to tolerate
any longer, and the best thing traitors car
do if they wish to avoid arrest is to hold
