General Fremont has got q
? 2-5il Com mand. II -e.f j

A special dispatch to the New York Tribune
under date of Washington, May 81, reads as
follows: .,.s-.s---5S
A committee from New York, originating in
Dr. Cheevcr's Church, and indorsed By such
men as Horace Greeley, George Opdyke, Viii
liam Cullen Bryant and Daniel S. Dickinson,
arc here to request the Government to give a
command to Gen Fremont at some point where
he can rally around him tho colored men of
the country. Yesterday, at 10 o'clock, they
were presented by Senator Sumner to the Pres :
dent, with whom was Secretary Chase. The
President declared that he would gladly receive
into the service not ten thousand but ten times
ten thousand ceiored troops; expressed his
determination to protect all who enlisted, and
said that he looked to them for essential service
in finishing tie war He blieved that the COM
lr,and of them afforded scope for the highest
ambition, and he would with all his heart offer
it to Gen Fremont. -, -.
specialize the Cincinnati Gazefte,s dated
Washington, june I'd, says:
The Presiden5 has formally communicated
to Senator Sumner his conclusions respecting
Fremont and the colored troops, to wit "that
he can command them if he will. No doubt
is entertained of his acceptance. 5a. sass,e

The Black Republicans, excessively fond Of
applying pet names TO their opponents, are
now very industfiously applying the name of
,ssCopperheadsr to the Democrats. We like it
much There is an applicability about il
which speaks out boldly and has p,lpable
meaning. s 1t f1sT gsiE ea'
The "Copperhead" is peculiar to this coun-
try a fearless, independent snake that knows
its power and when disturbed or interfcred
with, uses it; it is a brave snake, and there
fore naturally tolerant, harmless and passive !;
but take care ycu do Dot trample upon it !; for
it never runs except to attack its foe, and its
bite when once aroused, is fatal. s8aiY9I
Now, the Representative of the Republican,
opposite to the copperEeads, is the Biaeksnake.
And here, too the analogy is completes. The
Blacksnake is cowardiy, Kissing, thieving
reptile. He possesses somewhat the power
to charm, but he always charms the inocent
to destruction. He rcbs birds nests, visits
the barnyard and sucks hens eggs, and will
often be curled around the legs of ascow suck
ing her milk. just as Black Republican con-
tractors, jobbers aud Office holders are now do
ing with Uncle Samuel's COW. 1915 4

IMr, vaIIandigham,s Case.

Messrs Wade and Chandler are urging the
President to send Vallaudigham South. As
yet Mr.. Lincoln has not agreed to their de-
mands, but should he not do SO, it would be
their first defeat--M Y.oAers. pa =
Messrs Wade and Chandler were success
full; Mr.. Lincoln changed the essentence impo-
sed by Gen. Burnside and yesterday Mr.. VAL
iandigham was sent South. ,. 'is9a 1-A'
How mean is such proceeding on the part
of the part of the Administration Mr.. Val
landle ham has opposed disunion and .separa-
ton with his ability. He does not sympathize
in any efforts, Moth or South, to divide the
States into seperate Confederacies. When he
gets with the Leaders of the South, he will be
as much opposed to their schemes of disunion
as he was, and always expressed himself to be,
at home. They OF the South kt ow that Mr..
Vallandigham is opposed to their efforts to dis
member the Union, and, therefore, can not
regard him as desirable addition to their
population. If they permit him to come with
10 their lines they may treat him respectfully,
but they will require him to leave the first
bidding opportunity. His friends may rely
upon one thing: he will be faithful wherever
he goes, to the Union Of the States and the
peisona rights and liberties Of the citizen.
But Wade and Chandler urge Mr.. Lincoln
to send Mr. Vallandigham South If there

.A Dry CIeese Room.

presided over in most admirable manner by
Mrs. Willis, Il was struck IN fnding perfect.

vent dampuess in any shape coming into the
dairy. She would not allow any one to bring
the milk in. The servants, by "a very simple
arrangement, poured the milk through a sort
of funnel, connected with tube from the
outside, into tbeschcese vat. They were not
allowed to enter with their wet, or perhaps
dirty boots, but delivered the milk outside OF
the door, Then all the servants were obliged
to wear pattens-a very excellent plan.
You ought never TO let any one go in with
damp rair of boots on If by any, accideni
milk was split, there was not pail of water
thrown over it to wash it off, bat dry cloth
was used.
She assured me that she had never done
any scrubbing, except when they made no,
cheese, and then she would not make any
cheese for week or so, until sne was perfect

dairies in Gfousestershire and Cheshire, ;s
