An Amusing Error Of the N. Y. Tribune.
The Tribune of Monday, in one Of its
leading articles, has the following:
All. The late House of Representa-
tiTes, on the 22d Of July, 1861, passed, by
8 vote Of III to (both CoPPerheads, if we
mistake not the following:
ResolUed, That the present deplorable
civil war has been forced upon the country
By the disunionists of the Southern States,
now in revolt against the constitutional
Government in arms around the capital;
that in this national emergency Congress,
bsnishing all feeling Of mere passion and
resentment, will reoollect only its duty to
the whole country; that this war is not
waged upon our part in any spirit Of op-
preston, or for any purpose Of conquest or
1ubjugation, or for the purpose of over
throwing or Of interfering with the rights
and established institutions Of these
States"
The Tribune makes very funny blum
der in calling the two members who op-
posed the above resolution {" "Copperheads."
One Of these members is the Hon. John
?. Potter, the man who scared the "chiv-
alrous Prior with q bowie knife and the
other is the Hon. A G. Riddle Of this city.
These gentlemen are among the most tho
rough-going And-slavery Republicans,
and we doubt not they must have felt
highly edited to be called by the ignOmin-
ious term Of Copperheads," and that too
By the New York Tribune.
MeDsrs. Potter and Riddle looked upon
the Crittenden Resolution (the one pub
Hshed abOve) as drawn up for the express
purpose Of pledging Congress not to pass
any eonfscation bill, not to interfere with
slavery, no matter how necessary such in
reference may be to suppress the rebellion,
and not to conquer or subjugste the South.
Since then, Congress and the President
have thrown the Crittenden Resolution
overheard, and planted themselves square,
ly upon the Potter and Riddle plat
form, BY passing the cOnhscation bill,
interfering with slavery by issuing the
emancipation proclamation, and literally
making this war one of conquest and sub
jugatiOn-by eOnquering and subduing the
rebels.
These gentlemen are entitled to the
greatest amount Of praise for the independ-
snce they have displayed in voting against
that resolution, and the sagacIty they have
shown in seeing through the motive that
influenced Mr.. CrittendeH to offer such a
milk and water affair as his resolution has
proved to be,

Death of Resse c. FIeeson, Esq.


We regret to have to announce, to-day,
the death Of Resse G. Fleeson, Esq, one Of
the proprietors Of the Dispatch, after
long and painful illness, which be bore
with christian fortitude and resignation.
Mr.. Fleeson came here originally from Mis-
sissippi, and for over quarter Of CEN
tury was connected with the press Of Pitts
burg. His first essay as q newspaper edit
or was in Greensburg, where he published
the Intelligencer for several years. Re-
moving to Pittsburg, he started the Spirit
of Liberty, and at later period, the Tenn
perance Banner, neither Of which, how
ever achieved any great success. He was
employed successiVely on the Gazette, Com
mercial Journal and Dispatch, and in 1850
became associated with Mr.. Foster in the
publication Of the latter paper For the
last two or three years he suffered much,
and was latterly so prostrated that he sell
dom left his room. The deceased was
gentleman Of fine education and a terse
and vigorous writer. Like his uncle, the
late Neville B. Craig, he was intensely
snti-slsvery in his political views, and was
one Of the first here to urge and advocate
that policy which has since obtained such
a foothold in the land. Mr.. Fleeson was
Q man Of generous impulses, exceedingly
warm in his friendships, and loved most
BY these who knew him best. He had a
large circle Of friends who will read of his
demise with the deepest regret. Peace to
his ashesl

The Michigan legislature has done
wise act in encouraging the cultivation Of
sorghum, by the passage in the House Of
bill which ordains that all personal prop
erty that may be used in its manufacture
will be exempt from taxation for an unlim-
tied period; furthermore the State will
pay a bounty Of 81 for every 100 pounds
manufactured from Michigan raised SOr-
ghuu, in case as large an amount as 500
pounds has been made. There can be no
doubt but that under these influences the
cultivation of Sorghum viii be one Of our
most important interests. The bill met
with considerable opposition, and, after its
passage, Judge Pratt moved to amend the
title SO that it shall read A bill to encour-
age the manufacture of emetics."
The Chicago Tribune says of the cult-
vation Of sugar cane in Illinsis .
ave do not hesitate to say that the pros
pect now is that we in Illinois shall be
able, perhaps this year, toput into the mar
ket, as the product Of our own fields and
refDaries, good merchantable sugar at just
as low rates as the same article can be
fuenished FOR in any other part Of the
world, where the prices Of labor cor
respond 10 the prices that obtain here
This is confident prediction; but one
who has watched as carefully as we have
the progress Of sorghum culture, and whC
knows as well as we do the improved ant
cheapened methods by which the conVer
sion into syrup and sugar is effected, viii
not deem its realization improbable"

Hnnlor.a Nearo Reelmenls.


So long as the present prejudice exists
a0aipst the oommingling Of black and
white troops it is better for the discipline
of both classes that they be, as much as
practicable, engaged in separate eEPedi-
tioparv forces. It will not be long before
this unreasonable prejudice viii wear
away, and the white soldier be glad to vel
come a black reinforcement Of his own
eorps and division. But until that time
comes. the colored troops can best be en-
ploved in movements expressly delegated
70 them. General Hunter, who has had
great experience with oolored troops, and
who has made the most liberal provision
fer their future employment, acts upon this
plan. Our readers viii remember the per
feet success which attended an expedition
I'd the Georgia river In search Of lumber
and other stores, which was made wholly
by colored soldiers. The universal testi-
mony was that they fought bravely, and
in sll particulars excelled even the expee-
tations which had been formed Of them.
Another opportunity is now open to them
70 win additional honor. We made men
ten, few days since, Of an expedition
which General Hunter was to send into the
heart Of Georgia and South Carolina to stir
up, and gather erreinforcementsfr from, the ne
gross Of the interior. Late letters from
Port Royal state that the expedition has
started. It is composed Of all the negro
troops now mustered into service in that
Department. It is isunaccOmpanied by white
troops, 50 that the negro will have all the
praise or blame which results. Colonel
Higginson, Of the 1st South Carolina Vol
unteers, and Colonel Montgomery, Of Kan
sas fame, 20 out as oOmmanders-the for
mer acting as Brigadier. These officers
take with them one thousand well armed,
drilled and disciplined blacks, and muskets
enough to arm several thousand more. The
expedition left Beaufort on the sth, Gen
eral saxton giving parting salute of
thirty-twO gnns. The force ascended
the St. Msry's river, in Florida, but beyond
that fact we have no adyices.
A correspondent writes that, notwitb-
standing General Order No II, these ne
gro soldiers will have more important work
on hand than standing behind breastworks
and Offering themselves up as food for the
forces Of the South. In Florida, if in no
ether State, they are to have the advance,
and will be ordered not only to hold forts,
but to advance from the sea coast and cap
ture them.

rhe FxecurIon of Doc. Fool.

The Wheeling papers bring Us full details
Of the execution Of Do. Pool, who suffered
the extreme penalty of the law in a ravine
near that city on Friday. About ten
o'clock on Friday morning the Deputy
Sheriff entered the criminals cell for the
purpose of preparing him for the galloWs.
The first thing done was to tie his arms !
this over, the shroud was placed upon him,
and then the rope was put around his
neck. While his arms were being tied,
Pool trembled very much; when the shroud
was put over him he manifested no little
emotion, and when the rope was put round
his neck he requested that it should be hid
from the public gaze, which was done by
putting it inside the shroud. Before leav-
ing the cell he asked for a chew Of tobac-
co, which was given him
After coming out of the cell into the
hall, he desired to bid goodbye to all the
prisoners confined, remarking that it
might have the effect of leading them to
repent Of their sins and turn toGod. The
outer do1r OF each cell was thrown open,
and the inmates extended their hands, but
Pool said, 81 can't shake hands-mine are
tied goodbye; take warning and believe
in God, who alone is able to save you"
This was repeated at each cell, and when
Peol left the hall but one cry could be
heard" Goodbye Doc" and the scream
ing and moaning was truly heart-rending.
Pool then visited the front rooms Of the
Jail and returned his thanks TO those In
charge Of the institution, declaring they
had treated him more like a son than q
condemned felon. Bidding them all final
adieu, he left the jail, and entered an ON
nibus there awaiting him. The Reverends
Mr.. Barnes and Mr.. Barnitz, the two min
listers he had chosen to counsel and advise
him, the Sheriff and two deputies, Doctors
Hfld1eth and Hupp, and reporters, then
entered the omnibus and proceeded TO the
place Of execution. Arrived at the place
Of execution, Pool with quick, firm step,
walked up the steps and took seat on the
| scaffold. Pool asked that friend might
be permitted to come on the scafOld, as he
desired to speak to him: He requested his
friend not to let his body fall to the ground
but to let it fall graduslly and have it
/ in the placed coffin.
Rev. Mr.. Barnitz read the first seven
teen verses Of the ffty-frst, and the first
four verses of the twenty-fourth Psalms.
Rev. Mr.. Barnes stated that, at the request
Of Pool, hymn would be sung; the hymn
"Shout the Tidings was sung, in which
Pool joined with will. Mr.. Bsrnitz then
delivered an address, after which the
wretched man stood upon the trap, and the
bolt having bsen withdrawn, he was
/ launched into eternity.
Pool was about twenty-five years Of age
and when sober, quiet, inoffensive man
There is brother Of his now in Jail al
Parkersburg, awaiting trial for murder.

The speaker Of the Indiana House Of
Representatives-one of the Copperheads
who have disgraced that bOdy-has made
a ridiculous exhibition Of his Incompetence
as presiding officer, by the contradictory
decisions he has made in his esge-ness to
serve his traitorous allies. The Indiansp-
oils Journal shows up some Of these deci-
siOns. At the beginning of the session he
decided that the House could not receive
the Governors Message, because the Con
stitution required it to be delivered to the
General Assembly and the General Assem-
bly, consisted of the two Houses in joint
convention. The next day he acknowledged
his error in this, but declared that the
House must return the Message to the Gov
ernor on the ground that at the precise
time of its delivery to the House there was
not a quorum in the Senate, consequently
no General Assembly. Only five days
afterwards he voted for a resolution recog-
nizing the Message of Governor Seymour
as having been delivered to the Legisla-
ture of New York, although the lower
House had net been organized. Finally
he made another decision which was, that
the House without quorum could receive
reports from the Committee on Claims and
communications from the Senate and Gov
ernor. At that time the House had nc
quorum, owing TO the absence Of Union
members.

The Results of the HOmbaTdment Of Fort
mcAlltsreE.
The correspondent of the New York
Times, after detailed report of the exper-
imenting bOmbardment upon Fort Nc
Allister, gives the following as the con-
clusion arrived at:
"For our own part, albeit to. days work
has not achieved the reduction Of Fort Nc
Allister, there is nothing but encourage
ment felt at the result. The iT0H-elads
have had their crucial test, and still merit
every confidence. From the circumstances
Of the case, the whole Southern coast does
not present g tougher experiment than
that which they have successfully stood to-
day. You will doubtless receive, through
the Charleston and Richmond papers,
report in the usual rebel style, Of our
utter discomfeiture and their complete tri-
umph. Dismiss it utterly. It is impossi-
bic for me at the present moment to enter
into the details which would inspire the
same confidence we here feel. But believe
it fully Justified All that the country
looks forward to- Of operations on this
coast, will be carried out, and they will be
entered upon with q sense Of confid0nSe
doubled by the result Of to-day's trial on
the Ogeeche."

Speaking Of the gunbOat panic in Ii

Speaking of the gunbOat panic in the
South, the Richmond Examiner says:
"They knocked down the mudbanks at
Hatteras, and alarmed the good people Of
the Old North State beyond measure.
Their next essay was upon Fort Henry, q
little pen, which Mr.. Benjamin supposed
to be placed, as near as he could guess, at
the confluence Of the Nile and the Ganges.
After that the gunbOat panic seized the
whole country, and it became q serious
question at the Navy Department whether
liberty and the Southern Confederacy
could exist in the presence Of . cannon
