set N death, rested The last object upon
which the dying father booked was the image

them, his soul passed away
When, after ths battle. the dead we're being
buried, the soldier was thus found. The am

since been sent to this city for recognition
Nothing else was found upon his person by
which he might be identified His grave has

HE REVOLUTION IN ST. DOMINGO
ing to the latest advices from st DOMINGO. the
insurgents have been successful in two or three
encounters with the Spanish troops. The
eastern part Of the Island, it will be remem.
oered, was annexed to Spain in the spring of
1861, and the natives claim that it was broue ht
about by an act of treachery; that Gen. San
tana, together with the several Ministers of
Slate--on whose integrity the Domnicans re-
posed an unbouDded reliance-sod the Dom
lnIcan territory to Spain without the knowledge
or consent Of the natives A few weeks before
the change took place the national guard was
dlsarmed and dsbanded, and all means of re.
slstancs were put beyond the reach of the peo-
pie. The reason given for the dsbandnient
OF the militia was, that the country was at
peace and there was no necessity to keep up
military force. The traitorous designs OF
Santana and his ministers we're beyond the
conceptions OF the people. When it became
known that 1t was intended to change the flag.
several persons openly expressed their oppo.
sluon to the measure, the result of which was
that they were arrested and expatriated on
the ground of exciting the ill-wii of the peo-
pie by telling them that it was proposed To
transfer their country to Spain, than which no.
thing was further from the mind of the govern
ment. But few days after the stratagem
was completed, and the Dominicans found to
their intense regret that the annexation was
accomplished. The annexation has never
been recognized by the United States, France
or England, and the people count largely up
on this fact to aid them in throwing off the
Spanish yoke.

in other words, that one dollar and fNy-Gye

depreciation in the currency in the prices
placed upon all kind of property. AS il ad-

The ELECTIONS

So much is said about Mr.. Valandigham s
peace views being a prominent cause of his
defeat, let us look at few facts pertaining to
the recent elections. Mr. Vallandigham re-
ceived more votes at the last election than any
Democratic candidate for Governor Of Ohio
ever received-at least twenty-five thousand
more than were given for Mr.. Jewett who oc-
cupied the ,gar platform two years ago Gen.
Tuttle, the Democratic candidate for Governor
of Iowa, who took strong ground in favor Of
the war, and is himself at the head of mill
tary command, is the worst defeated Demo-
cratic candidate who ever run in Iowa The
Republicans of Ohio elected Brough on war
platform, while the same party in Iowa badly
defeated Tuttle, who stood on platform al
most identical with Brough's Judge Wood
ward, an unexceptonable man. in favor Of
the prosecution of the war, was also defeated
in Pennsylvania by Curtin The great lever
age Of the administration enabled it to COM
NIT a majority to its policy, and place its
avowed adherents in the gubernatoral chairs
of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Iowa, regardless
of the individual opinions of the opposing can
didates upon the questions of war or peace
