been marked st times by remarkable demon
stratlons OF personal eccentricty. We are in-
formed that he would make bis appearance on
the public squsre, with most sustere counte-
nance, and discovering group of the male
inhabitants talking or playing marbles, that

; TRAITORS osFt Of my sight r. "Rats, to yoEr

or alarmed
The substances OF these charges have been
formally placed before the President, and Col.
Norton, OF the Twenty-frst Ohio passed
through the cny the other day with bundle
OF documents, with which he proposed to suh-
stantiste them. He informed Us that it wss
no secret that ths great majority of the efR-
GERS who have served under Mitchell are deer-
ly dissatisfied with him, believing him to
abound in vast vague schemes, and to be in
hrn of purpose, and that he is restless and en-
ergetlc without being executive, while it would
take far higher order of talent than he has
displayed to atone fol. his enormous excitsble
and exacting vanity.
Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette1
WASHINGTON, July lO.-The whole story
TO which the Louisville Journals distorted
charges vaguely refer is this:
Some of Gen. Mitehers troops were at ons
time driven out of the town of Athens. Ala.
BY superior force of rebels A few of the
inhabitants were charged with uniting with
the rebels in the attack Subsequently, other
troops, under Col. Turcain, one of Gen. Mitch
eiis orlgade commanders, retook the place.
On taking possession, our soldiers, in revenge
foF the sympathy few of the inhabitants had
shown for the rebels, committed the grossest
outrages. The town was literally sacked and
plilaged. What added to the enormity Of the
case was the fact that Athens was really ope
of the staunchest Union towns in Alabama.
and had actually held out for the Union and
against the Confederacy, till after Bull Run,
and till there was danger of having troops
quartered on them. They made tough resis-
tance. The infamy of giving up such people
to be robbed and plundered by Union troops
Is unQuestioned.
But let It rest on the right head General
Mitchell was not there; the outrage was in
direct violation of his ORDERS and he used every
possible energy alike to repair the injury and
to have its perpetrators brought to condign
punishment. OF this the records of the War
Department themselves furnish ample evil
dence. Since Gen. BuelPs arrival he has been
at empting the same thing; and without being
placed in perilous and exposed condition,
and without having, like Gen. Mitchell, wary
foe of superior force lowering along bis unpre-
cedentedly extended lines, and taskiug every
exertion to hold him at bay--withouL any of
these other cares with which Gen. Mitchell
was compelled to be absorbed, Gen. Buell. has
hitherto found it impossible as did his prede-
cessor, to secure the evidence that might war
rant the punishment of these offenders.

Tine Cotton Trouble.

From the New York world, July Is
England is sorely troubled respecting the
future of the cotton supply. At last accounts,
there was only 213, ,27o bales in Liverpool,
against l,l23, 900 at a corresponding date last
year. Were mills to run on full time, every
pound of cotton in England would be used up
in four weeks. What adds to the prevalent
distress is the fact that India, so much relied
upon, has failed utterly to meet the public ex-
pectation that she would supply, partially at
least, the deficiency occasioned by the loss of
American cotton. Instead of sending more
than usual to market, there was afost, at last
accounts, of India cotton, only A, 600 bales
against 100000 last year, and 2s5, 900 in 1860.
Hence the excitement in the Liverpool cotton
market, and the distress, present and prospec-
tive, of the manufacturing districts The past
year was, On the whole prosperous one for
Great Britain, as the profits on the French
and Italian accounts made up for the loss on
exports to America. The coming year will
witness tbs effect of cotton famine in Eng
land, for it is now vely clear that no American
cotton can possibly be made available for the
commerce Of the world before mid winter, il
even then.

The Murder Of samuel Gaston.
rom the Lexington ONO, Union, ,u,yp1

From the Lexington (Mo.) Union Juyls.l
Mr.. Samuel CASTOR, an old man and an old
citizen, residing on the southern line of this
county, near the Columbus road, was Tuesday
night about IL O'clock brutally murdered and
robbed. The circumstances are briefly as fol-
lows. Mr. G2ston has been = loyal citizen,
and like The rest of his loyal neghbors has
been fron, time to time robbed, until he had
almost cen deprived of all his property
Sometime in February last, band OF men
came to his house, took his stock ard $50 in
money, and carried him of q prisoner, and
after OBTAINING him several days be vas re.
leased, after which he came to Lexington to
take shelter in the Federal lines. He renamed
here few weeks, and at the earnest invita-
tion of his rebel neighbors returned to his
home.
After he had put in his CROP he was at
tackled, robbed of his last horse, shot at and
compelled to hy for his life to this place, since
which time he has been here, except when ac-
companied by the military to his neighborhood
in the hope Of securing some Of his property.
This is the whole of bis offending. Tuesday
night he was determined TO go home to see his
| family, and was accompanied by MIR. Van
| Hook, his nephew; about twelve miles from
this place, near Greenton, they were halted in
the road by four men, who stepped from the
| bush in front of them they were ordered to
| dismouut, and surrender their arms if they
| had any, and their money, which they did
they then led them some forty PAGES from the
| road where they shot CASTOR dead, putting a
full charge of buck shot into his right side.
The assassin stood so close as to force even the
gun-wad into the wound. He died instantly.
Van Hook ran, was shot at, but escaped. He
arrived at Lexington early Wednesday morn
ing.
One OF THE MURDERERS OF HR. CASTOR
KILLED.-The scout under command of Lieut..
+, Wightman, which went out the morning after
the murder of Mr.. Castor, returned yesterday,
bringing with then several prisoners. They
succeeded in finding one of the murdererg,
who they killed on the spot. Lieut.. w. found
the body of Mr.. G. and buried it with military
honors, compelling the secessionists to attend
his funeral.

Yes, and the official returns show that
in comparison with the vote last year, the
Democrats are coming up, and also stand
better in the Legislature by one Senator
and ten representatives,
Th c Republican Committee canvassed
the whole State previous to the election,

ny WE publish, in another column,
extracts from Speech recently delivered
in the U. S. Senate by Mr.. Doolittlo, n
Republican Senator from the State Of Wis
consin, which will repay pcrusal. AL
though we do not concur in all his views,
those which relate to the relation of the
white and black races in case of the eman-
cipation of the latter, are, in the main,
sound and true, and their exposition in.
structive. 1t is very true, as stated by
him, that our principal difficulty is not
one of slavery but of race; that the two
races cannot be placed upon an equality in
the same community without shocking de-
generacy, or an determination of one by
the other and, consequently, that the
only reasonable alternative is between the
control of the inferior race by the superior
on the one hand, and their entire geograph-
ical separation ON the other. The former
plan is chosen by the Southern States
either voluntarily or upon compulsion oi
circumstances, while the latter is advoca-
ted by Senator Doolitte, and (and if VIC
understand him) by the President of the
United States.
Most certainly we have no objection tc
the plan of Mr.. Doolittle if it be practi'
cable but upon this very point it is want
ing. At least it does not seem to US to be
practicable. The mere expense of his
plan would break it down if it were seri
ously attempted Besides, before a single
step could be taken by the United States
a grant of power from the States would
be necessary, and afterwards concurrent
action by each State to be affected by the
scheme.
But the remarks of the Senator arc
timely and just upon the intolerable evils
of emancipation without a removal of the
black race, and may be studied with pro
fit by his Abolition brethern.
