HTwo gangs Of rebel. visited Re

ETwo gangs of rebels visited Red
House and vicinity on Kanawha, last
Monday. They numbered about 100
in each band. composed mostly Of men
raised in that section OF country, and
familiar with roads. Plunder seems to
have been their chief object. We are
informed they captured few soldiers,
and paroled them. They also took
with them the sheriff Of Putnam coun .
ty, and after robbing all the stores,
and stealing sny horses that were to be
found on their march, retired without
being molested. 1t does seem some
what strange that these gangs OF horse
thieves, can roam ad k6ifuBa over the
low er portion OF the Valley, regardless
OF the troops at Charleston. Geuernl
Scammon's force seems inadequate TO
protect so large an extent of territory,
as that from the Ohio river, to Fayette

T The magnificent Chandeliers in
the Presbyterian Church at Gallipolis,
were furnished by Cornelius & Baker
Of Philadelphia. The order was given
by the Ladies Social Circle Of that
church, and Fifty dollars remitted-the
style and quality lett to Cornelius 4
Baker. They at once forwarded pair
worth $40. thereby donating the sum
Of $40. For this evidence OF liberalty
and christian spirit. they have the
thanks ofthe congregation and Pastor,
with the hope shat il may not 60 IN
rewarded.
We think our merchants who deal 10
Lamps. would find il to their interest
to order directly from Cornelius d
Baker, who are at the head Of the
market in that fine, and the largest
manufacturers IN the Union.

syJudges Wood ward and Lowrie

SJudges Woodward and Lowrie,
of the Supreme Court Of Pennsylvania,
were both candidates on the copper
head ticket last fall, the first for Gov
ernor, the other for reelection as Judge.
They were both defeated by large ma
jorities. Shortly after, in a case then
pending in that Court, Judge Lowrie
delivered an opinion deciding the Con.
scription act to be unconstitutional, and
therefore null and void. In this de-
cision, Wood ward, Of course, concurred.
A few days since, Philip johnson Of
fered in Congress, preamble and reso-
luton, declaring it the duty of the
President to either acquiesce in the de-
cision of the copperhead Judges of
Pennsylvania, or bring the question be-
fore the Supreme Court of the United
States, for final adjudication, &c. In
other words, allow Judge Taney to de-
eide as he did at Baltimore, IN a cer-
tain case of habeas corpus involving
the same question. A motion was
made to lay on the table, and carried
80 to 43. The name OF the member
from this District does not appear on
either side. Why?
S Green Clay Smith, member Of
Congress from Kentucky. and a
thorough Union man, threw a shell
into the copperhead camp in the shape
Of the following resolution:
RESOLVED. That as our country, and
the very existence of the best Govern.
ment ever instituted by man. is Imper-
lied by the most causeless and wretch
ed Rebellion that the world has ever
seen, and believing as we do, that the
only hope Of saving the country and
preserving this Government is by the
power of the sword, we are for a vigor-
Gus prosecution of the war until the
Co Institution and laps shall BE- enforced,
and obeyed in all parts Of the United
States, and to that end we oppose any
armistiee, or Intervention, or mediation
or proposition for peace from any quar-
ter, 50 long as there shall be found
Rebel in arms against the Government,
and We ignore all party names. lines
and issues, and recognize but two par
ties in this war, patriots and traitors"
The resolution was supported by a
decided majority from the Border
Slave States. We refer to it only to
show the vote of the Ohio delegation.
Look at it Union men, and see who
are in favor Of vigorous prosecution
Of the war, and obliterating party.
