Douglas and VnIIand x Ina I'm.

The willy party OF which JOHN BRoUGn
is the exponent and standard bearer, are
trying to wheedlo few votes Of incau-
tious people, by claiming that Mr.. VAIL
ANpiGHAM did not do the fair thing by
Mr.. DOUGLAS at the Charleston Conven-
tion. We find published in the Chicago
Times letter from Judge DOUGLAS which
will put an eflectual quietus upon this last
slander concocted by cunning and un-
crupulous party. We challenge the Alb
oition sheet OF this place to publish the
letter:

Espionage over VailanGighnn

The espionage by the " Government"
over Vallandigham must be nearly as
amusing as annoying to him. We on
Monday gave an account of the patrol
of the Detroit River maintained bv the
United States States steamer Michigdn,
and its chase after the Morning Star, in
which it was rumored Mr.. Vallandigham
had taken passage for Cleveland. Two
revenue cutters lying idle at Detroit are
being fitted ont to watch the avenues OF
escape across Lake Erie. As there are
thousand ways in which Mr.. Vallah-
digham can get back to Ohio whenever
he chooses to go there, these measures
of the "Government" are as absurd as
they are disgraceful. They are ordered
from Washington at the dictation OF
Chandler, at Detroit. This vulgar igno
ramus, saturated with alcohol. has at
last, in the vocation of spy, found his
proper level. EavesdropperS, sufficiently
dehased to be his creatures. report the
movements of Mr.. Vallandigham to him,
and he reports them to Washington,
whence are ordered armed vessels of the
Government I" to follow his suggeS.
ton.
Nice employment for the United States
navy. How does this occupation of the
steamer Michigan, barring with her arm
ament the return of a loyal honored
and honorable citizen to his home, con
trast with the inquiry and declaration o
lngraham to Kozta. in an Austrian port
care you an American citizen? If so
will protect you" Those were words
fit to be spoken by Commander in tn,
United States navy, and to be engraved
on sword presented by the Congress
Of tho nation. Now tho Commander
in our navy are degraded to Thugs. an,
our vessels -of-war are placed as spies t,
watch the movements of citizens who's
only oflense is devotion to the flag whicl

MODEL SENTINEL.-An anecdote Is related
of one of the citizen soldiers in the expedition
ofthc MACPHERSON Blues, againstthe insurgent
of IVA, which is worth being recorded, as it
may be OF service TO some OF the Weather sol
diers in our ranks. The person referred to
was German by birth, by the name of Koch,
and well known in his day as. a large under
writer. He died some twenty years ago in
Paris, whether he had gone for the benefit of
the climate, leaving fortune of one million
dollars. Koch, then young man was pri-
waite in the MacPilerson Blues. 1t fell to his
lot one night to be stationed sentinel over
baggage wagon. The weather was cold, raw
aud wet. This set the sentinel musing.
After remaining at his post half an hour, he
was heard calling Justify: Corporal Of der
quartz? Corporal Of der guartzr' The corpor-
u came and inquired what was wanting Koch
wished to be relieved few moments having
something to say to MACPHERSON. He was
grained, and In few moments stood in the
presence of the general. "Well Mr. Koch,
What Is your pleasure p asked MACPHERSON,
why, general, wish to know what may be
der value OF that wagon over which, am pac-
ed as sentinel ?" How should know Koch p
well something approximative-not to be
particular" "a thousand dollars perhaps"
"Well General MACPHERSON, j will write
check for der money, and den l will go to

MISCELLANY.

THE LEGAL CHARGE.-In old Massachu-
sets. in former times, if not now, the statute
defined the fee Of clergyman for officiating
at a marriage ceremony, and made one dollar
and half The legal charge. Rev~C. I. Of f.,
father oil present member OF Congress, from
the same district, used to laugh over the in
depreciation one of his parishioners gave the
law. He was an honest hard working yeo-
man. who was more literal than literary. He
came to the minister" with his rural bride,
as customary with the middle classes, and had
the knot tied in the presence Of the family
Feeling "good" doubtless, that the event was
over, and wishing to square accounts with his
pastor, he looked up sheepishly, as he stuck
his hand into his pocket, and asked, "Wa'al
parson what do you tax for splicin, me ?" Mr..
T. smiled in his genial way, and willing TO
bother the fellow little answered, The law
allows me nine shillings, Mr.. JONES'" Yankee
currency Of course )Thrusting his hand deeper
into his pocket, and drawing out new "quar-
ter the smiling @happy innocent" replied.
"The law allows We a dollar half, does it ?
Wa'al then, I'll put in a quarter, and make it
one seventy-fivew The simplicity was so real
that Mr. T. took the Sinner" and realized
the balance in the fun he had in telling the
Joke.

his wife asked him to get up and see If he

nothing but his and his wife's clothing, which
he gathered up and packed upon the bed, and
