"United Brothers of the Great West"

There is said to exist in Philadel phia

Brothers of the Great West" which is
an offshoot of the K. G. C's. The New
York Evening Post hears that there is a
similar organization in New York city.
The following questions are put to can
didates before joining:
lst. Are you in favor of the abdica-
ton of Abraham Lincoln, by force, if
necessary?
I'd Are you in favor of Northwest
ern Confederacy?
3D. Are you in favor of resisting the
draft or CONSUMPTION?
The candidate must subscribe to all of
the above ---t
In the bylaws of the order, one of the
propositions. is, that the society is in ia
vor of peace on any terms that may be
offered within the limits of the conSti-
tuition as interpreted by the Supreme
Court.

B9 Brig General Harrow was in the
city last night, en- route east. We are
glad to learn from the General that he
has received commission for Captain
John J. P Biinn, formerly Adjutant of
the l4th Indiana, as his Adjutant Cen
eral on his staff
Capt Biinn served with great credit
to himself and profit to the old cast-iron
regiment Of the Gibralter Brigade as its
Adiutant, and proved himself an accom-
plished officer and brave and gallant
soldier, and we know him to be polish
ed gentleman. He followed the fortunes
of the old 18th through all its cam
paigns, and participated in all its bat
ties, including the bloody field of Ante
tam, where he displayed a cool courage
and dauntless bravery that would have
done credit to the veteran of an hundred
battles.
We rejoice heartily at the deserved
promotion of our talented young friend
and congratulate Ged. Harrow on pos
sessing chief of staff who has been SC
well tried and found so true, under his
own Immediate observation.

Incidents of the War,

A correspondent of the Louisville
Journal gives the following incidents,
which we have not before seen in print:
Gen. j. c. Davis had quite nice little
affair few days ago He, with his corps
was in front, and wishing to change his
camping ground, he ordered some worth
less old tents to be burned. The enemy
saw the conhagration and construed it
into "a hasty retreat a-
They rushed down, as they thought,
upon a terrified and retreating foe, but
to their deep chagrin found Yankee
trap set for them, into which they had
foolishly run; the consequence OF which
was that some of them were killed, and
as have been informed, about four hun
dred prisoners taken. Recently as the
cars were coming from Nashville, and
when about ten miles from the city, we
were attacked by party of guerrillas
Their number was, perhaps, forty or
fifty For a few moments the bullets
whistled about us, but the guard on the
mail train soon drove them away We
had two men wounded-one severely, the
other slightly. An incident occurred on
the cars during the fight that is worthy
OF note. 4 lady with three small chill
dren from Pennsylvania was in the car
with the writer When the firing COM
menced, most of the officers and men
laid down on the floor of the car. Some
gentlemen called to her and requested
her to lay down also. She replied in a
nleaeant tone of voice, "Did you ever
hear of any one that had the blood of the
Wynkoops running in their veins lodging
bulletY' l was struck with her reply,
and begged the privilege of asking her
name. She kindly informed me that she
was daughter of Col. Wynkoop of the
7lh Pennsylvania Cavalry, and the wife
of Lieut.. Wariield, of the same cavalry
regiment All honor to such indomita-
Bile daughters and wives.

Sustain the Union and the Schools.
What was tAe need for making our
Spring elections party contest? Now,
when party should be subordinated to
patriotism and the general welfare, is
noa the time for partizan squabble. Yet
certain Of the so-called Democratic"
leaders meet in secret caucus and bring
out party ticket, and send their whip
pers-in around to impress honest men
into its support Bat the leaders find
they have "a hard road to travel."
The true Democrats and the honest men
of all the old parties will unite to sus-
tain not only their Government but their
Free Schools The election of the Cop
perhead-Caucus Ticket will be the death
of the latter, and will work to the disad-
vantage of the former.

NJ Two communications have been

E&- Two communications have been
handed in to US by gentlemen on the
Democratic city ticket, 1isclaiming, on
the part of the writer's, any intention to
oppose Free Schools
If once our columns are opened to
this class of communications, there will
be no end to them. Every man in town
who imagines himself obnoxious to the
charge of hostility to the schools can
claim tie right to be heard through our
columns, and we would be able to pub
lish little else. So the best plan to pur-
sue is, not to commence. -
The gentlemen who wrote the com
munications have party organ, and we
would recommend that they publish their
views in its columns. That paper ap-
pears only one day later than this issue
of the Journal, and in time to be gen
orally read before the election. In the
columns of the Gazette the public will
naturally look for an authorized EXPOSE
ton Of the views of its candidates. The
movement that we have represented as
Anti-School was commenced under par
tizan auspices, and the organ of its
movers is the proper channel for their
communications.
