KENTUCKY.

Joshua f. Bell, the Union candidate for
Governor Of Kentucky, was elected to Congress
as Wing in 1oi5, turning out BY 70 majority,
ousting George A.. Caldwell, bis Democratic
predecessor He was the Wing candidate for
Governor in 1859, and beaten by Beriah Ma
coffin (Dem.) by s,9l6 minority: the vote
standing, MagoGin, 76,1s7; Bell, 67,Hl. He
is q resident of Boyle County, lawyer, and
an estimable citizen. SO many Democrats and
so few Wings have gone South to fight fOs
jeff. Davis that Boyle can hardly help beating
Lazaru, W. Powell, the foreordaned
Democratic candidate, now U. S. Senator.
Powell wa, chosen Governor in 1851 over
Archibald Dixon (Whig), having been beaten
at a former election. He is reputed capital
electioneerer, bu. bis notorious sympathy
with Breckenridge, Burnett and other
Rebel chiefs and leaders leaves him no choice.
Richord 7. Jacob, Union candidate for Lieut..
Governor, is, we believe, Of Democratic ante
cedents. If the Rebels should again overrua
Kentucky, as they mediate, they viii doubtless
take away good share OF Mr.. Powells rs.
naming voters to recruit their armies.
The fact that the large Union Convention
would not listen TO Copperhead incuicsIioas u

RIP VAN WINkIE Nv TIE ARMY

1t is popular legend, and therefore
popular belief, that Rip Van Wrinkle COM
menced his long sleep somewhere on the banks
Of the Hudson; and it is furthermore popularity
beliesed that after doing century or so, be
awoke to find himself behind the age. We
are sorry to be obliged to discredit this
venerable and respectable legend, but tradition
must fail if the light Of truth, thrown back
ward upon the past, betrayS the error. Ripley
Van Wrinkle is still asleep on the banks of
tho Potomac, in the War Ordnance Depart
ment, and has never woke up since his last
yawn in 1865, in which year French officer
named Gribeauyal, having settled system of
Field Artillery Tor France, Ripley the Sleeper

bercl by tho o.des. inhabitant that the sleep
Of the Old Man was very much troubled about
the year ls27, caused by some sacrilegious hand
daring to alter the trail OF tho Eeld.carriaCc.
The Old Sleeper was observed TO turn upeasily,
his face to assume an expression of deep disgust,
and his lips to muttcr, in broken manner:
" Keep him out Inventor new idea cant

he turned his back TO Time Us he passed along,
and slept moro soundly than ever. In the
mean time, the affairs Of the Ordnance Office
became, as it were, mixed up, entanged,
and confusion prevailed throughout all its
ranifcations. The system Of 1865 had
been departed from, aud tho variation
only increased tho difficulty. The guns,
instead Of being uniform in their calibcrs,
exhibited many different varieties; so tina. on
tho battlefield battery, having expended its
ammunition, could hardly hope to get fresh
supply Of the same sort among the infinite
varieties in sizo and shape of the projectiles in

old carriages, which were too weak to resist
their recoil, and so fashioned as to admit of but
little, il any, elevation. In accordance with

THE HEALTH OFFICER.

An Albany correspondent of one of tht
morning papers states that there is prOba
bity of the Governors nouHBating q new
Health Officer for this port, in place of DIR.
Gum, the present incumbent, and that the
nomination may BIO confirmed BY the Senate.
We do not know what ground there may b.
for the rumor, but should regret to find il
true. 1t ID in the power. as it IS clearly TIE
duty. of the Senate, to defeat the nomination
of any man to whom the Governor should pro
pose to give the Office for merely political rea'
sons, as the less power and patronage there ia
lodged in the hands of party in hostility t.
the Government the better. And there can be
no other than partisan purpose to be served
BY DIR. Gums removal. As o skiIlfcl physi-
clan aud man of unmpeached integrity, nc
is well qualified for an Office the duties OF
which he has discharged with eminent success
for several years, AND at period when the
facilities for their proper discharge were
almost entirely wanting. To preserve tho city
from the introduction of epidemic diseases
from abroad, and to Go this with the least
possible expense and inconvenience to the
commercial community, and az cheaply as pos
sble to the State, is the difficult task OF the
Health Officer. He has performed II COM
pletey. Not a case Of yellow fever nor any
epidemic of any sort has passed the Quaran.
tine station during his administration. ana
in the way of fees aud extraordinary
charges, to which, in past years, the mer-
chants had been subjected, he has saved Them
according to the universal testimony, many
hundreds of thousands of dollara These are
good and sufficient reasons for his being LETT IN
disturbed, even if the Governor had Senate
that would confirm the nomination of a mere poll
teal partsan; and should he even BE- disposed 70
name one of any other character--a not very
probable suppositOn--it would only be to ds'
place a good and tried officer for an untried
one. But the Senate, having power IN the
premises, viii, undoubtedly, consult the wishes
of the community most concerned in the mat
ter by leaving the Office in its present good
hands.

THE MEETING LAST NIGHT.

The meeting last night at the Cooper Insti-
tute to organize the Loyal National League
was gathering as remarkable in its way as
any Of the great meetings that have been held
in this city for the last two years. 1t was
great, fret, in numbers, for, admission beng
only by ticket to members, women were nee.
cssarily excluded-prcbaby not dozen being
present--and the immense ball was packed with
men, who, had they, as usual, been accompa-
MED by wives, daughters, or friends, would
of doors 10y thousands; secondly, in the evident
character Of the audience, in the intelligence,
respectability and earnestness of the men who
know what they mean TO do, and how they
mean to DO it; and thirdly, IN its enthufnatic
but serious earnestness, and in tie entire
unanimity and sympathy which bound 1t to-
gether aud moved it as one man. Though
the arrangements for the meeting seem to
have been somewhat hastily made, and
little pains taken TO bring to 1t men,
strangers among US, but whose fame would
attract an audcnce--all the speakers being our
own citizens, or gentlemen who happened TO
be in town-yet the assembage came together,
evidently not so much to hear distinguished
orators, 90 because they had signed o pledge
which they meant, then and there, to give an
earnest Of their intention Of fulfilling, and to
act with others moved by tho same high mo-
tive. AS the meeting, therefore, owed nothing
70 mere management, go its entire success is
oil the more gratifying and the more significant.
IL IL bu5 the precursor Of others which will
give completeness and momentum to great
popular movement which, we cannot doubt,
will carry everything before it, develop fresh
spirit throughout the North, and hasten that
triumph which tho people everywhere demand
and long for.

the Nation has committed suicide, at least II
the contemplation of that Union and its loya
upbolders seems to us too plain to require
demonstration to any loyal mind. And We
reterate the Illustration quoted from our forme'
structures by The World: "Whatever clause
[of the Consttution] warrants tho Fedora
Government in declaring that jeff Davis oil
Beauregard has forfeited his life by treason, ii
equally cogent to prove that South Carolina
has done the same" Now add, that whatever
Federal authority is competent to forgive or con-
dono the treason Of jeff. Davis and Beauregard
has Ike power to do the same by South Caro-
lima, and the illustration is perfect. No one
doubts that the Rebel chiefs have forfeited
their lives TO the Union. Does any one doubt
that. upon their renounciug their treason and
returning to loyalty, the Government would
have full authority, if it saw fit, to pardon
their crime ind remit its legal penalty
3. But chow can dead States perform valid
acts of legislation I" That is o question for
those who believe they can to answer. We
recognize the ability as inhering in lire States
alone.
4. We are quito willing that The World
should multiply and aggravato to it, hearts
content the obstacles to q restoration of the
reyolted States to their powers and privileges
90 living members of the Federal Union. We
only say tina. by far the most vital and formid-
able Of these obstacles is their rebellion, and
that, this being removed none Of the rest viii
be found insurmountable.
5. If Tie World will grayely and in good
faith affirm that State in the Union, Loyalty
and peacefully fulfilling all her constitutional
obligations, can be inhibited or prevented from
either establishing or sbolishing Slavery as she
may see ft, We will reconsider tae point.
Until it does so, we need say nothing further
on this head. Several of our anti-Siavery
friends have sent US structures on this point
which prove, if anything, that no State has or
erer had any constitutional rigM to Iegat-s or
recognize Siaeery at all. If the question were
new one, we might be inclined to favor that
view. Knowing wha. we do Of the formation
and cotemporaneOus exposition OF the feaeral
Constitution, we cannot

els, and they alone, are responsible for tho
continuance Of our terrible Civil War. Were
they ready to fulfill tho sacred compact which
they repudated in rushing into treason, we

shall be ready to do so, We shall have peace

THE ALABAMA AT JAmAICA.

The reception which was given to Capt
Semmey of the pirate Alabama at Kingston,
Jamaica, has been widely criticised as evidence
of the hostility of the people of that island r.
this Government, and their readiness to side
with the Rebellion. 1t appears from Inc ia
maiea Guardian. q very respectable paper pub
lished in Kingston, that the demonstration III
favor of Semrnes was inconsiderable in num-
bers, and that it was very generally and de-
cidedy condemned by the citizens Of all classes.
The Guardian publishes letters denouncns
Semmes as the representative of slayehold-
ers' rebellion, and his Commercial Exchange
leyee as disgraceful to the island-Hhlch 1t
certainly was. Editorially, the same opinions
are expressed. A handful Of the community
allowed themselves to be carried away by q
momentnry impulse, and to some extent com
promised the people OF Jamaica, who haze NJ
sympathy with Slavery iu any shape.
No doubt the Rebels have friends in Ja'
maca as elsewhere in the British possessions,
but the fact that Emancipation made that isl
and free lessons instead Of increasing their
number. The effort to make the contrary ap-
pear is defeated by the evidence above re-
ferred TO.
