The Unity Of the North,

The New York Tribune prints letter from
the pen Of a President Of University, which
contains things that ought to come home to
every patriot, for 1t presents portion of truth
ss to the condition Of the country. We have
already published one extract from the letter,
In which the necessity Of unity 10 the North
was clearly shown. The following sentence
depicts the prospect with disunited North:
y The result of this, If not checked. will be to
divide the North into two hostile parties, end
Ing In civil war among themselves. Then will
come scenes of bloodshed, anarchy and desols.
tion that will throw the French Revolution In
p the shade, Until military despotism closes
the drama OF horrors,
ltis certain that. II the Abolition programme
ia made test Of loyalty, this result will ensue.
There is one basis of Union in the North: the
Federal Constitution. Fidelity to 1t will carry
the nation msjesticsliy through this gigantic
struggle. infdelity to it 10 producing division
at the North, and unless the Administration
changes its policy, the terrible result predicted
above cannot be avoided.

Northern Treason.

The VOlk'blaa of Cincinnati, the Abolition
German organ Of Ohio, talks Of President LIN
COLIN in the following irrevsreut manner. Oar
Teutcnic cotemporary evidently has no fears of
the thunders of the War office; 1t speaks it's
mind right out iust as IL there were no bastiles
to be dreaded: aa.4
1t 10 proven long ago that Mr.. Lincoln with
his dishonest honesty, with his imbecle smart
nees, with his decisive want of determine ton,
with his obstinate weakness, is responsible for
all sins committed, all che blood shed, all the
wasted money. He hes unnecessarily, publicly,
and In black and white, assumed the rascalities
OF Cameron, the follies Of Halleck, and Nc
Clellsn's treason. Why, then, should we not
turn to him in the name Of thousands of unfor.
traate parents and relatives, who have lost,
through hin, sons and brothers; in the name
Of the despsiring wives, whose husbands he has
taken; In the name of the deserted, suffering
children, whose supporters he has killed; in
the name OF that once happy nation, which he
brought to the brink Of ruin, and which by his
faults, ia now being hurried to inevitable ruin;
In the name Of liberty, which sees it's last refuge
defled, disgraced and destroyed, because Lin
coin has neither the ability 20 protect 1t, nor
the honesty to give the helm of the helplessly
drifting ship of State into such hands as alone
could save IL from miserable destruction.

re Late Raid on mIddIebury.

New YoRK, Jan. 3i.-The Herald has tho
following from Fairfax G. II. Jan. 29Ih. The
cavalry raid Of the 9th inst brief account
Of which has been already forwarded, Eas In
its results rather an important affair. The
force was composed Of one hundred and sixty
men under Major Hammond. By order Of Col.
Wyndham, the expedition left Fairfax at one
O'Clock at night, and arrived at Middlebufy by
daylight. Here they captured twelve rebels,
who have been for some lime annoying
our pickets, and recaptured fourteen psrot-
ed prisoners. Several of these lset were
evidently deserters. Some Of them admitted
that they were deserters, while others say
they were stragglers, who. had been captured.
They stated that they had been robbed Of their
clothes, but thia rebel prisoners Indignantly
denied, and said they were deserters from our
army and had voluntarily exchanged their
clothes in order to ESCAPE more readily. r
Among the prisoners was Rev. Mr. Lsnd.
street, the chaplain Of Gen. Stuart "''
All the prisoners seem to be well posted In
regard to what was going on within our linss.
Very important information was obtained In
regard to Stuart's movements, They ell ad.
init that but little Is to be expected from the
new conscription act, as nearly every available
man is already In the Aeld.

From the New York Evening Post. !
The Late DIR. Beecher.

The late Dr.. Beecher was eccentric in biz
personal habits He lacked system and order
both in the disposition Of his time and In re-
gard to his person. 10 Is, indeed, surprising
that one who 90 seldom had set time for ali
Hfetent duties should have accomplished any
thing. Careless Of his dress, bis personal ap-
pearance was usually negligent, though not
slovenly. His papers were scattered around
loosely, and his writing desk was always q
scene Of chaotic confusion. Yet, notwithstsnd.
ing, when it came to prepare matter for his
sermons or for the press, be developed an abil-
ity Tor order and accurscy which would hardly
be expected. He was very careful and faatidi-
ous In his literary labors, rewriting several
times sentences and phrases which did not suit
him. In this way he acquired : slearness Of
style which was particularly marked, and could
only have been gained BY this acrupulous par.
tlcularity. He was allTays terse, brief, and
concise In his statements.
In regard 70 his sermons, he Was very par
ticular He either wrote out the discourse In
full, or else prepared an elaborate skeleton
thereof, and read from the written page the
points and arguments, which were short and
Distinct. ln later years he always wore 'hir
spectaclee In the early part of BILE sermons
but after having read the points and got fairly
on foot, he would remove his spectscles ani
launch forth into those bursts Of orStofy 70,
which he was 90 distinguished. Once he Wal

described. He instructed them to allow their
eloquence to follow their reasoning, ."for,"
said he. "tfue eloquence is logic set Oh 6re."
There were many oontrarietiesin Mr.. Beech
er's character. .He waa very sanguine. always
looking on the bright side Of things, excepting
with regard to his children. They never suffer-
cd the slightest illness but bis soicitude became
extreme, and he anticipated the worst results
when there was little If any ground for fear.
The domestic bereavement which seemed to
have had the greatest effect on him was the
death Of bis first wife, who left him eight child
rem Az an evidence OF the intensity Of his sf-
Fiction, he ct one time gathered bsaketful of
his sermons, and calling his son, Henry Ward,
into his study, said, "There, Henry, are the
sermons that preached the year after your
mothers death. They are good for nothing"
The condition Of his mind during that year
aad, In his opinion, made Il impossible for him
to write anything worth preserving.

They agreed to meet at place near where the
murder was committed. After meeting there
they drank the liquor, and sbont that time Mrs
Jones and her two oohildrcn came along in search
of berries. Msddened by the liquor they had
drank, and made desperate by their brutal pas
eions, they ravlshed the unfortunate woman:
and then. reaec.ing upon the certainty of their
discovery and punishment, they decided to kill
the woman and her children. The father
sgreed to kill Mrs. Jones II James would kill
the children. The little boy aud girl, being
frightened BY the terrible scene, had gone away
q few rods, and were standing by Che fence
