Elsewhere in our columns Will be found
the details Of draft disturbance in this
city, yesterday, which may, from present
appearances, have fatal result. Il is tho
legitimate fruit Of Copperhcadism, and di-
rcctly responsive to the daily doctrines
and teachings Of sccesh journals and sym
pathizcrs here. Only yesterday morning,
the organ Of JEFF. Davis justified the in
tense dislike and disgust" Of its adherents
towards the enrolment officers, 1nalicious]y
printed Of the " 5oo'iM 1trseeuhons'' visited
upon citizens by these officials, and talked
Of "fhe spirit oroused,' &C., among our cit
liens. The very day Of the publication Of
the infamous item, which was but one Of
series, sawan echo to the appeal, in mur-
dcrous assault upon these foolish pcrse-
cutors" by the poor tools Of the men who
contro1 tie Chicago Times. 1t was q bru-
tai, cowa1dly affair, which will probably
prove murder in effect, as undoubtedly it
was in design. The purpose was to intim-
idate the officers of the Government. Per-
laps it may have been based upon the hope
Of again dragooning some tinid souls in
this city into telegraphing the President to
revoke the draft proceedings in Chicago,
and save bloodshed and riot. It will not
be done. The full power and weight Of
tic Government will be at the back Of its
officers, ard those who resist the draft will
do go at their own deadly peril
The Ohio Coppcrhcad Committee, con-
stituted at their late great pow-wow to
inquire Of President Lincoln the present
address Of the infumous Vallandi CHAM, are
now in Washington on that Grand The
mission is most touching one. They have
come TO ask A1r. Lincoln to giye them back
their gubc1natorial candidate. Of course
this will not be done, and they do not ex-
pcct it, but the Ohio farce would not be
complete without this mission to Wash
ington.
The anniversary week at Bloomington
has come to be period Of much interest
to the friends of Education and Science in
our State. Notwithstanding the engross-
ing topic Of the war, the exercises Of the
occasion, trnnspiring the present week in
the pretty Normal City, are unusually IN
tercsting. We devote due share Of space
elsewhere to the notes OF our special re-
porter ut Bloomington.
At Milwaukee, yesterday, Sunset Cox
and Sat. Clark, and other big and little
lights Of the Treason-shriekers, addressed
such Of the assembled Coppcrhcads Of
Wisconsin as could be got together. The
sameness Of these affairs would be simply
wcarisome, were they less dangerous in
temper and tendency. These men mean
the ruin Of the Government. VIII the
people be warned?
Doctor Madison Mills, IN old-style fossil
Of the regular army patte1n-callcd for
short [and for cause") Dr.. Nad Mills
Surgeon Medical Director in our army at
1icksburg, is impa1ed in column OF doc
umcntary evidence, elsewhere published in
this paper, as to his inhumanity and pomp-
Gus savagcry. For the sake of our brave
soldiers we trust that medical officials like
this Mad. Mills are scarce; but we fear
they are more common than they should
be. a little brief authority set off with
shoulder straps is the cause Of q great deal
Of suffering in our army. This DR.. Mad.
hills would rather ten brave fellows should
die, than tlat the order for phyaic for one
of them should not be tied up with its
quantum Of rcd tape. Read the evidence
against Mad. Mills.
The Illinois State Legislature has taken
recess, so the Copperheads say. A very
good name for it. Gov. Yates recently
c1ammcd it into the narrowest recess that
ever furnished grave for mingled cupidity
and treason The unfortunates who ut
their OWL expense hare just gone down to
galvaDize faint w1igGle ont Of the extin-
guished reptile, are content to pronounce
it dead. Their farce Of wake over it,
they could not keep up. Little Fuller likes
the floor, and Buckmaster likes the chair,
but when it Is only little Fuller and
Buckn,aster that are present, both floor and
chair lose their charms
