men in this once happy land to cry aloud, no
matter when or where, Il an an dmeTtcan cIti-

dynasty. An American citizen is arrested at
the mid beur of the night, the time at which all
or most al dark and damnable deeds are com
mitted and his appeal for his rigtts under the
Constitution as sn American citizen are treated
with derision All that is wanted to secure the
arrest and incarceration of any citizsn is the
living affidavit of some Shiny, foul-mouthed,
cowsrdly hypocrite Is this great wrong, this
madness to continue The kidnappsrs knocked
at the front door, and were admitted by Mr..
Smith, Dr. Olds' son-iu-law. They insisted upon
seeing Dr. Olds when Mr.. Smith remarked that
he would notify himi they refused to awst this
decent and usual process, but rushed up stairs
to his room and unceremeni0usly burst open the
door This procedure aroused the doctor, and
he, probably thinking them sssassins or robbers,
made at them with the tOngs, and finally
chnched and lloored one Of them.

mentioned, seems 10 have been well understood
By numerous Republicans of this city, who con-

upon the arrival of the officers Before the doc

present, to whom he remarked that the papers
were regularly made out, and that he chose to
quietly submit believing that day of retribu-
ton was near at hand for those partisans, who,
through the utterancs of falsehoods, had caused
his arrest So mote It be.
A large majority of the volunteers from this
county now in the field are Democrats, and the
same IS true OF the companies now being raised.
And nOT We would ask the Republicans here
those who caused his arrest and those who
sppiauded the OQ5rage-Whether they are not in
fact chsrgeab.e with, If not talking, at least

II there is any forcs or virtue in S.ant0n's late
order upon this subject should it not be inforced
against such diacouragers of volunteering, for
they are and they will not Yolun-
teer and fall into the ranks themselves
The Democracy of Fairfield will be called
upon TO meet in mass meeting in this city, at an
early day, to give expression in this matter.
Bills viii be circulated, and we hope that every
Democrat viii turn out.
The doctor remarked to bis friends that his
kidnappers were ordered to take him to Fort
Lafayette.
The Political EmbrogIIO in Kentucky.
The Frankfort correspondent of the Cincin-
matt Commercial undertakes to explain the recent
political moves in Kentucky, whereby governors
were unmade snd made SO rapidly. We extract
as follows;

we're perfected, and the first step will probably
be taken to-day. 1 an Uniformed, however, that
