demonstrations from the Copperheads,
SAEBoRN. moving to table it and JOINS
moving to refer it to the Republican Gen.
trail Committee. That class of Democrats
are continually complimenting the -Re-s
publican party by caaracterizing and treat-
ing every loyal utterance from whatever
source as being substantially Republican
utterances Gen. RosKoEANs has always
been Democrat. But no sooner does he
whip the rebels, and declare himself in
favor Of enforcing the constitution and
laws in all the States, than q resolution
complinenting him Is treated by such
Democrats as Republican resolution
Several local bills were introduced, and
also bills for printing and distributing di-
gests Of the Supreme Court reports, insre-s
gard to rights of joint owners OF water
powers, amending the statutes, concerning
the support of the poor, chartering copper
mining company of Douglas county, sup
Elementary to chap. 70 OF revised statutes
concerning railroads, and prohibiting the
allowance of fees to witnesses in criminal
trials. Among the bids. passed was an
appropriation of $4,000 to pay the in
debtedness of the State prison and sup
port that institution tor the coming year.

THERE is long article in the January
number of Blackwood. purporting to come
| from the pen of an English officer who
| spent some weeks lest year at Richmond.
| The writer is an extravagant admirer OF
JEFF. Davis, and his associates, and his
production is long eulogy of the genius,
proves and spirit of the rebels, with
copious episodes of abuse levelled at the
vulgar and cowardly Yankees. OF course
such an article is intensely gratifying to
| Coppcrheads IS well as to rebels, and the
Chicago Times quotes largely from it,
Some of its extracts, however, have o
somewhat different bearing perhaps from
what it intended for them. Thus itquotes
from the writer in Blackrood to show that
| the rebels by their superior management
and proves have been able to equip their
armies from the spoils taken from federal
soldiers. Speaking of what he saw at
Richmond, this Euglishman says: Faai
"It was amusing to see so. s." marked upon ev-
lad upon North M mott onv oas
| ed and equipped the million OF men whom they
boast Of having had at various times enrolled, but
they have similarly supplied the southern arraies.
| Into whatever camp you 60 you are sure to see
tents, carts, horses, guns, all marked with the gu.
So OMcsrs have declared to me that they have
seen whole regiments 60 into action with smooth
bore muskets and without great coats, and known
IN the TO ss their 9s
fss The southern troops have been SO literally
supplied with ALL and, indeed may say, more than
q soldier wants in the field, that they do not value
their knapsacks blanket and in acton invaria-
| bly, throw them away before they s'sAedaddle ~
/ living to eight anotner day." their governments
will provide them with q new kit, rifle and all -
| A little further on the Times remarks
| s1The perfect ease with which Communication liz
| kept up between the North and South by contra
band routes is exemplifed by the manner in which
| this Englishman ran the blockade from New York
| to Richmond. He took it quite as a matter OF
every day business: It Is scarcely necessary to
and forwards from Richmond to the northern States
| almost daily. Now and then some unlucky fellows
|
have generally succeeded in destroying the papers
| and letters of which they were bearers"
| We regret that the Times has omitted
to inform its readers that these things all
occurred when the " Young Napoleon y
was in command in Virginia that it was
while his hugest com binations and grand
est strategy was in full play that these
| wagons and carts, these arms and equip
ments, were taken from our soldiers and
that it was through his lines that this
perfect line of communication !" between
traitors in Washington and traitors in
Richmond was kept up.
