/" Arbitrary Arrests.,,

COpperheads are invited to read the fol-
lowing paragraph from the Richmond
Whig:
"JOhn A. Hannah, Presly A. Howard
and L. Dudley Nelson, arrested at Mount
Sterling, Kentucky, for uttering treasona-
bic language, arrived here yesterday and
were placed in Castle Thunder to await
trial"
To be consistent, the whole horde Of Val
landighammers should at once hold indig-
nation meetings and denounce, in the
severest inVeotive of which the dictionary
furnishes the material, the despotism of
the rebel Government in thus violating
the Constitution, suspending the ha6sas
corpus and destroying the liberties Of the
people" But they will do nothing of the
kind. That sort of criticism they reserve
to hurl at the Administration which has
its headquarters at Washington, and not
at Richmond. Still, We wsuld be glad to
have the matter brought before the Copper
head meeting of Thursday next, to see
what disposition would be made of it.

Response TO the Cnn.

In view Of the delay and disappoint-
ments which war-as every war must dc
has brought upon US, and of the dissen-
sions and disafection which the Copper
heads are so industriously spreading in
the North, it is gratifying to find that the
public heart is still in the right place.
The uprising of the North to repeI the in
vasion Of Pennsylvania is worthy Of great
eommendatiOn. This has been particlarly
manifested in the Eastern States, Ohio
not having done mnch yet toward it. The
City Council Of Baltimore appropriated
100000 to the public defense. The City
Council Of Philadelphia Appropriated $500
600. The Banks of Philadelphia put
Sl,0O0,OOO at the disposal of the State to
arm the militia. The Bounty Fund Com
mittee appropriated S15OOOO to be paid in
bOunties to those who should enlist for
the crisis. The Corn Exchange of Phila-
delphia gave 81, 600 toward putting reg
iment in the field; and this was but one
Of many similar acts of munifoence. Re-
oruiting was commenced under the person
al efforts of the oldest and most eminent
citizens, and the sum Of the movement, it
is believed, will be that Philadelphia will
send three full batteries Of artillery, one
regiment Of cavalry and ten regiments Of
infantry to Harrisburgh, in time to relieve
1t. New Jersey, on appeal from Governor
Curtin, forwarded instantly two regiments
Of returned soldiers to the rescue. The
Empire State has equaled Pennsylvania
and Kew Jersey in zeal and prOmptness,
and is sending regiment after regiment of
her State militia to the valley of the

"HOist by their own Petard."

Hoist by their own Petard.o
For twenty years the leaders of the
Democratic party have controlled the low
and uRthinking masses Of society. In ev-
cry city, the ignorant and depraved are
Democrats. For this reason, out Of an
equal number of votes in city and country,
those Of the city viii contain the most
Democratic tickets. The men of the cOun-
try are readers and thinkers. The papers
they receive are studied, not hurriedly
glanced over. The nature of agricultural
employment tends to thought and refec-
ton; and thought and reflection are enc
mics to the Copperhead Democracy
In the city, the degraded and 'Iicious are
in ninety-nine cases out Of one hundred
supporters Of the Democratic faith. This
element-tne brute force of community
the Democratic party has oourted Wise
men saw, long ago, that this element might
at some time be troublesome. The tanned
elephant is made exceedingly useful for
drawing heavy burdens, but the old pas
sions Of the jungle sometimes return up
on him and he turns and rends his keeper.
This was just what was done at the Demo-
cratic State Convention at Columbus. The
long headed men, no more, Vallandigham
nominated for Governor, than they did
Beelzebub himself. Such men as Henry
B. Payne and H. J. Jewett would have
Stunned him as they would a peslilence.
Bat they could not help themselves. Their
tools, the ignorant masses, who have usu-
ally been so obedient to the guiding lines
Of their leaders, took the bits in their
teeth aud dashed pell-melI into the very
quagmire that those leaders would have
avoided. Vallandigham had proved a
good subject for exciting a rabid hostility
to the Administration, and exalting Dem
cratic free speech and "peace" doc
trines, but that was all. To'nominate him
for Governor was to damn the party, as
was done in Connecticut and New Hamp-
shire. It was saddliDg the Democratic
party with a load it could not carry. But
thanks to previous glorifcatiOn of Vallan-
digham and his goddess crew, the masses
Of the party came up to Columbus, mad
for Fallandigham and nobody else. The
great gEsaEiRay rqaripG- " kO.WliRg, mass bad
tered the men who dared oppose them
The masses were the masters now and the
% 5iIom leaders were the slaves. It was de-
manded of them that they nominate VAL
landigham, even as the release of male
factor was once demanded of Pontius Pi-
late, and they had to do it, although each
one Of them knew it was signing his pO-
litical death warrant. Their curses had
c0me home to roOst with vengeance.

Restored to Command.

teer Infantry, A. A. D. c., lately dismissed
the service on charge Of having sold ne
gro at Memphis, Tennessee, has, by order
Of the War Department, been honorably
restored to his command The whole affair
proves to have been mere farce, and an
imposition upon the authorities by citizens
who were without any real knowledge Of
faots as to Captain Dewey's guilt. In the
examination Captain Dewey readily proved
himself, in the fullest sense, innocent Of
any such action, and returns at once to
duty in the field.

the rebels on many a hard fought battle

men and women who have been sent South
from St. Louis, for dislOyslty, by order OF

to General ROsecrans, at Murfreesboro,
with directions that he pass them through
the lines. This General ROsecrans refused
to do, lest they should give important in
formation to the enemy. They were then
forwarded to Memphis, to be sent to Gen
