The great stock in trade Of the Copper
heads has been arbitrary arrests. and ev-
erywhere they have howled loud and long
about the tyranny Of the Lincoln Govern
ment in arresting traitors and incarcerst-
ing them in prison. This has been one
Of the great issues in the recent elections.
In Pennsylvania, there had been many
arrests of traitors, and a tremendous
clamor had been raised by their friends.
That was the|great Copperhead card there
in the recent election. Though there was
forty thousand of . majority of Union
soldiers in the field, who did not vote, yet
the Administration is endorsed by twenty
thousand majority. In Ohio the issue
was particularly emphasized by the Gar
bitrary arrest" of the traitor Vallandig-
ham, under the Burnside order, and also
Of DR.. Olds. the pet Of the Galena Cop
perheads. and there the Administration is
endorsed by majority of more than one
hundred thousand, and larger than ever
known in any State election, where there
has been serious contest In Iowa, the
people have endorsed the "arbitrary ar
rest Of the traitor Mahony, by larger
majority than ever before given to any
party in the State. There is great les
son in all this.-[Galena Advertiser.

Life i'm cuba.

A frightful attempt at murder is des-
cribed by the Havana correspondent OF
New York paper as having occurred near
Cientuegos, on the person of q young la
dy named Seal, at the moment of her mar
riage. The nuptial benediction had just
been pronounced, and she was still stand
ing beside her young husband in the
midst of a large family circle, when sud-
denly the report offs gun vas heard, and
the poor young bride fell, pierced through
the breast by bullet The assassin has
not been discovered. Here is probably
story Of disappointed love. and fierce
revenge equal to any romantic felton,
AT last accounts the poor girl was alive,
and the ball had been extracted, but she
WAS believed to be mortally wounded,
consequently very slight hopes were en-
tertained of her recovery. The locality
where this tragedy occurred is becoming
noted for such deeds. A few months
ago young lady of sixteen years was
shot and killed. Shortly before, mar
ried lady was literally cut to pieces by
mschetes in her own house aud in the
midst of her family. A young planter,
very highly spoken of, was another vic
tim short time previously.

Anecdofe of Stephen b. Mum,

He hired Mr.. Hoyt, his ook-keeper,
from the Navy Yard. His duty was to
keep books and also the "petty CASH.
This cash is used to pay small bills-pos-
tage, petty expenses, and amounts it was
not worth while drawing check for
Mr.. Hoyt kept this cash, and every night
found himself short two or three dollars.
This, as an honest book. keeper, he chars.
ed to his own account, or made it good
out of his own pocket. Mr.. Mum. yerv
likely, helped himself. Atlast the book
keeper said to him, "Mr. Mum, would
feel obliged if you would leave memo
rsndum 10 the drawer, stating amour,
aud purpose, when you take money out
oil the drawer" No attention was paid to
this request. AT last the book-keeper
found 1t was becoming a very serious
loss. 30 he got lock smith, and had a
patent lock placed upon it. He went to
his dinner. When he returned he found
Mr.. Mum furious. 81 cant get that
drawer open" Mr.. Hoyt explained the
reason. In rage, Mr.. Mum went to a
neighbor. "What sort of book keener
do you think ! nave got? He wont let
me take my own money. 1t is my mo.
ney. What business Has he got to lock
it up?" His friend saw the matter clear
ly, and explained it to Mr.. Mum, and told
him he ought to be thankful that be had a
conscientious cssh-keeper.-W ". Barrstt's

TIE $50 LoAN.-The rapidty with
which the $50 loan is being absorbed
offers constant and obvious proof of the
patriotism of our citizens, as well as of
the wealth and inexhaustible resources of
this country. Thus the sale Of 5-9Os last
week amounted to the extraordinary ag-
gregate of 1878 $50. On Monday the
sales were $3.50, 800. Tho question of
shipping gold to Europe or 520s is being
decided by some parties in favor of the
latter, and more bonds will probably cross
the Atlantic during the present month
than for any three months previously
As these bonds find good market abroad !,
1t is more than probable that the 200,-
000,O 900 yet unsold will be taken before
the close of this year. Intending sub.
scribers should, therefore, lose no time in
securing their bonds, as it is the obvious
interest Of the country to retain these
bonds here, and have our own people
monopolze the advantage of the whole
loan.-TN. Y. Eve Post

the Defeat.

yaIIandIgham's General Of0eT Upon
the Defeat.
DEMOCRATS OF Ono: You have been
beaten-by what means it is idle now to
inquire. 1t is enough that while tens OF
thousands of soldiers were sent or KEEP
within your State, or held inactive IN
camp elsewhere, to vote against you, the
Confederate enemy were marching on the
Capital of your country.
You were beaten but nobler battle
for constitutional liberty and free popular
government never was fought by any
people. And your unconquerable firm
ness and courage, even in the midst of
armed military force, secured you these
first of human rights-free speech and
free ballot.
The conspiracy Of the eth of May fell
before you. Be not discouraged des-
pair not Of the Republic. Maintain your
rights; stand firm to your position; never
yield up your principles or your organi-
cation. Listen not to any who would
have you lower your standard in the hour
of defeat. No mellowing of your opin-
ions upon any question, even of policy,
will avail anything to concilate your po-
ltical foes. They demand nothing less
than an absolute surrender Of your princi-
Piles and your organization. Moreover, if
there be any hope for the Constitution or
liberty, it is in the Democratic party
alone; and your fellow citizens. in little
while longer will see it. Time and
events will force it upon all except those
only who profit by the calamities of their
country.
| thank you, one and all, for your SYM
pathies and your suffrages. Be assured
that though in exile for no offence but
my political opinions and the free express
sion of them to you in peaceable public
assembly. you will find me ever steadfast
in those opinions, and true to the Con-
stitution and to the State and country OF
my BIRTH

vent further than he had ever before ventured TO

Is far more ancient than has been generally De-
loved. Prot Agassiz, who has kept himself neu-
trial unon the question, for the trst time ex-
presses an opinion upon it, IN his paper IN the
Atlantic Monthly, for SEPTEMBER, entitled
.'lhe Tertiary Age and its Characteristic AM

subject: 4bo

GENTLY. because the evidence IS at present
too scantv to admit Of any decisive ludg-
ment concerning them It becomes, how
ever, daily more probable that facts Will torce

it. and that succession OF human races IS OF
