Rosseau and Burnside,

These two gallant officers, of whom
the country is justly proud, are xceeding-
ly odious to the conservatives as well as
the rebels. The Democratic organ in
Johnstown, Pa, thus speaks of Rosseau,
who made two or three Union. and anti
slavery speeches in that State;
GA creature from a distant State, a
renegade to his kindred and his nativity,
neither a Northerner nor Southerner,
a carpet-knight, driveller, liar, and
coward; the minion and paid tool of the
despotism at Washington, sent here to
tell the Democracy of Pennsylyania that
if they do not ike his masters policy
they shall leave the country; that If they
attempt to assert the right of free bal
| lot they shall have the bayonet, that as
they oppose the Administration they are
Copperheads and must perish ignomlnl-
| ously by the halter.
The New York World is equally slam
derous in commenting upon Gen. Burn
side. This is what it says of the execn
ton of the two rebel spies caught within
Burnside lines: .F-

Another EmancipatIon Convert.

The Detroit AdUertiser states the fol-
lowing, apparently on reliable authority,
in an article in reference to Emancipa-
ton in Tennessee:
"Cave Johnson, formerly Governor of
the State, Congressman, and U. S. Post
master General, is the latest convert to
Abolitionism He has written letter
to leading Anti-Slavery man at Gin
clnnati, Ohio-a welEknown "Under-
ground Railroad" manager-asking for
counsel and assistance in regard to free
ing all his slaves. Mr. johnson declares
himself positively determined to emanci-
pate every negro. The owns, and wishes TO
do it in the manner that will be best for
himself, for the colored people, and for
the State of Tennessee. He does not
ask compensation, only counsel what
course to pursue.
Hon. Cave johnson is one of Tennes-
sees most distinguished sons. His ad-
hesion to the cause of emancipation will
powerfully accelerate the movement in
that State. Indeed it may almost be
considers as settling the question 1t
is an ct tn Brute blow beneath which the
monster slavery will sink in despair, and
yield up its hideous ghost We fear,
however, there is some mistake, and that
the AdUeriser has been misinformed.
So violently pro-slavery has the honora-
BILE gentleman been all his life, that
change now will be almost as remarka-

In the early stages of the rebellion,
after South Carolina had passed her Sc
cession ordinance, and the other Con-
federate States had initiated secession
measures, and the forts, arsenals, and
Custom Houses had been seized, but
while yet most of the conspirators held
their seats in Congress, and there prose
cuted the plot, the following letter from
Vallandigham was received by the house
of B. Kittridge & Co., of this city, a
highly honorable firm, doing a large busi-
ness in the gun trade, and, previous to
the rebellion, having heavy trade with
the South:

A LA QUANTRELL.-The Terre Haute
Journal, in descanting ON the recent
setting up" given by the soldiers of the
63d Regiment to the infamous Daniel w
Voorhees,, says: !f,F
"Should he, (Voorhees), fall by the
hand of violence, the E9press, and the
leaders of the radical party will be re-
sponsible
Let then, one hair of his head be hurt,
and his friends will know who occasioned
it, and woe be to the guilty ones. 1t will
then be an eye for an eye and tooth for
tooth.
Let him be murdered, we care not
by whom the deed is done, and one uni
versal cry of vengeance will go up from
the Demo ssJ55d 'ailu caused
his death.
This is the true spirit Of Quantrell,
and is worthy of the source whence it
emanates. Cookery tried that game
when his Office was destroyed by Demo
cratic soldiers, two years ago, but the
thing didn't work. He and his serfs
found that they would meet fitting re-
ception if they ''tried it on" and hence
magnanimously forbore from wreaking
their vengeance on inoffensive type and
presses.
If Voorhees, should fall in some
drunken brawl, as is likely to happen, il
not hung for treason or killed by soldiers
/ incensed by his insults and abuse, the
Terre Haute Journal proposes to wreak
the vengeance of the Democracy upor
the Terre Haute Express, and on suci
men as Col Thompson, Rev. Lyman
Abbott, Lucius Ryce, Levi G. Warren
and indeed any respectable gentleman
who believes treason and murder is ;
crime. For all such the Journal call
radical.
The threats of the Terre Haute Joan
nal are not deadly.
