For several days past the largest division of the

one drop his rock till I give the word, and
then all at once"
Peeping cautiously over the cliffs, James
Wilson saw the Tory boat slowly but surely
approaching. An officer stood on the bows,
guiding the oarsmen by his orders, and the
epaulets on his shoulder told that he was the
identical fiend, Major Bradstone.
Don't drop till give the order" again
whispered Wilson.
When the boat was about twelve feet from
the rock, the boy leader fell securely behind
his stout defence and shouted: "Who goes
there ?"
In a moment the oarsmen ceased rowing,
and gaZed with establishment about them
The impetus which the boat had acquired
caused it to drift slowly beneath the rock,
and just as it was fairly below, came forth
the loud doomed words
4" Cut loose in the name Of Liberty !"
Each boy pushed his rock at that instant,
and as if with one impulse the gigantic stones
fell. \ loud shrek from the dark waters
told how well the plan had succeeded, and as
the exultant boys again looked over the rocks
| nothing was seen but a few pieces of wood.
| The boat was burst in pieces, and the occu-
| pants found grave at the bottom of White
| Clay. A cry of victory burst from the joyous
| lips of the youthful patriots, and it was
echoed along in solemn grandeur.
Now for our prisoner !" cried Frank How
ard, bounding ahead but what was the as
constituent of the boys to find that in his eff
| forts to get free George Livingston had been
caught by the fatal cord and choked to. death.
There vas no time for repining; the traitor
and his son had met their deserved doom, and
there was no one to mourn their loss.
''Such be the end of Americas foes forev-
er !" said James Wilson.
Old Livingstons house was searched, and
to the surprise Of every one, not merely guns,
but three brass field pieces, several barrels of
powder, and an abundance of balls were con-
cealed in the tory's cellar. The military
stores found here were given over to the
American troops, and found joyous welcome
at their headquarters. Had not the British
party been so signally defeated along the
banks of the White Clay, the town of New
Of Delaware would have been overrun by
predatory bands Of British soldiers.
James Wilson and Frank Howard both
joined the army of Green, and served with
distinction in the Southern campaign. Frank
fell in the memorable battle of Eutaw Springs
bewailcd by all who knew him. James lost
to his native village, but modification ensued
and he expired with the ever-to-be-remem-
bered words on his lips, "Cut loose in the
name Of Libertyw
The village Of Newark still stands, and has
become a town Of some celebrity. The
scene of the defeat of the British by the boy
patriots is still pointed out, and is a sacred
spot in the annals Of Newark

The Cause of tie War.

The RYAN Address attributes the war to
the Northern abolitionists 1t denies that it
was caused by slavery, but by the fanaticism
of the opposition to slavery. On this point
hear two highly competent and creditable
witnesses, both Of the South, but one loyal
and one rebellious. First hear the testimony
of one of the party that fred the first gun
agaidst Fort Sumter.
The Richmond Enquirer, for more than a
quarter of century the organ of the South
ern Rights party in Virginia, on the 10th Of
September thus expressed its opinion as to
the cause of the present war:
ct appears that shareholders are averse, for
some reasons, to hire their negroes in the
Confederate army. The prejudice is certain
ly an ignorant and mean one. as tie WaT aC0s
originated and IS carried out IN great part for the
defense of the Shareholder and hiS property,
rights, and tie perpetuatjon Of tie institution it
is reasonable to suppose that he ought to be
the first and foremost in aiding, by every
means in his power, the triumph and success
of our arms"
Now read the testimony of a large meeting
Of Union men in North Carolina.
The Raleigh Progress says:
1.-The people of Chatham, Orange, and Ala
nance held large convention at which the
following resolution was passed:
s'The rebel CONSUMPTION law having exempted each
owner of twenty negroes, the plea that it would
take one white man to every twenty negroes to
keep them in subsection, this convention
''ReSo7red That the exemption Of the tgenty negro
Tar ought not TO hare been passed, as they are the
Cery men that ought to be in the field, fighting to pro-
tect their property, for there is doubt that they
are the sole cause Of the 1gar.'
The leading rebel journal in the capital of
the Confederacy tells its readers that 'TH1s
WAR WAS ORIGINATED AND Is CARRIED OUT FOR
THE DEFENSE OF THE STAKEHOLDER, HIS PROPER
TT, RIGHTS, AND THE PERPETUATIoS OF THE IN
sTITUToSn
The North Carolina loyalists of three coun-
ties assembled in mass convention, declare
that THE SHAREHOLDERS ARE THE SOLE CAUSE
OF THE WAR" And this declaration is made
in the heart of rebeldom, and far away from
the presence of Federal troops.
Who will deny the competency Of the par
ties above quoted as witnesses respecting the
cause of the rebellion, and the aims for which
it is prosecuted?

THE GERMAN NATIONAL ORGANIzATIoSIs
We learn from card in the Washington Re-
publican from the Central Committee of the
German National Organization, that it origin
ated in Council No. 10, the German branch of
the Grand Union League Thus far, 10 state
associations, together with great number Of
clubs and other societies, have declared their
willingness to cooperate and send delegates
to the National Convention, to be held in
Cleveland, Ohio, on the 18th Of this month.
The card says: "All liberal Germans stand
On one common platform. To bring them to-
gether and unite them more firmly, that they
may act in concert, has been our foremost
and chief aim. To perpetuate our glorious
Union, to promulgate and maintain every
where an ardent and answering love of free
dom, is our earnest wish"

Chairman Union State Central Committt
George B. Smith On the Ryan Address.

81 am saying what | believe to be true. And
in Democratic Convention, above all other
places, l claim the right of free speech. Sup
pose case, I am called out before promis-
cuous audience to appeal for enlistments
How 1cotld look to appeal to them IN tie spirit
Of that address, Would Republicans enlist !?
This address is virtually such stump speech
to 90 all through the State and wbat ociU Je rs
eject? 4 rojce-It's a good stump speech.
An0ther g0ice-I want it to so South.) That
last mans remark, continued the speaker,
suggests to me that IF JEFF DAVIS
SHOULD GET HOLD OF THIS ADDRESS
HE WOULD LAUGH IN HIS SLEEVE,
AND SAY "SEE HOW THESE NORTHERN
Frs ARE QUARRELING AMONG THEM
SELVES !" THE ADDRESS
WILL MAKE TROUBLE ALL OVER THE
STATE
The above is an extract from q speech
made by GEO. B. SMITH-the present Demo-
cratic candidate in this Assembly district for
the legislature,- in the Democratic State
Convention held in Milwaukee last year,
which originally adopted the address. He
was speaking to the question of its adoption.
JONATHAN E. ARNOLD another Democrat, OPP
posed it with equal vehemenee. Mr.. SHITH
has since apostatized; he has sacrificed his
conscience to his party and now supports the
Palmer ticket nominated upon platform of
which this Infamous address forms princi-
pal part. On the other hand, Mr.. ARNOLD
stands to-day, where ne stood last year, hold
ing his conscience above the control of party
caring more for his country than for building
up partizan organization, loyal Democrat
supporting the Union ticket

THE NATIONAL DEBT,-A Washington dis
patch says that the National debt is far less
in amount than the enemies Of the Govern
ment hoped it would be on the lst of Octo-
Der. They had prophesied that we would
owe three thousand millions of dollars before
the end of the second year Of the war. Gov
eminent enters upon the third year of the
war, with a debt of only twelve hundred and
twenty-five millions seven hundred and fifty
thousand dollars The increase of this debt
hereafter, will be moderate, the Government
being abundantly supplied with muskets, can
non and clothing.

~ The Richmond Ezana;,ae7 of the g.

- The Richmond Examiner of the 9th
has a long article on "the barrenness of Con-
federate victories" 1t says
At Charlottesville and at Chickamauga
were fought the two bloodiest battles of the
war each of them contested for three days,
and either Of them equal in size of the armies,
in carnage, in dramatic displays Of valor, and
in all the incidents of military pomp, to the
most famous conflicts of history. Yet the re-
suit of these splendid victories is only the
meagre qualification that we killed more Yam
KEGS than they Confederates. So in all the
war.
