Copperheadism in Holmes County.

Eos. HERALD:--About ten days since Mr..
Elias Robson, whilst enrolling the militia in
Richland township, in this (Holmes) county,
was sect upon by number of Copperheads aud
beaten severely. He reported the facts to the
District Provost Marshal, who, with a small
posse proceeded 20 the township named, and ar
rested few Of the ringleaders. Before they got
out Of the township they were stopped by a
body ofarned men, who rescued the prisoners,
and, as the story goes, made the Provost Mar
shal promise that he would not attempt anoth-
er arrest, or ever show his face again inside the
township limits. The number engaged in the
rescue have heard variously estimated at from
fifteen to fifty, all armed with rifles and pistols.
The unterrifed Of that township, and, in fact,
other townships in this county, say that not a
man shall be forced 20 fght in this"damned Alb
clifton war"
A gentleman who was on the ground a short
time after the rescue, states that the woods and
roads in the neighborhood seemed 10 be swarm
ing with armed men. He thinks he saw at least
ahandred in one body, all armed with what
seemed TO him, new rifles.

ceedings in the matter. w.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribu


Indianapolis June l0.-For some days past,
the citizens of portion of Rush county have
been threatening the life of any one who attemp-
ted to enroll their names in accordance with
the recent act of Congress. These threats were
so numerous that Deputy Marshal Frank Ste
vens, with two Deputies followed close behind
the Enrolling Commissioner. While the Com
missioner was in a house, asking the ladies some
questions about their husbands ages, DC, Stew
ems and Clayfield drove up in buggy and
stopped. Some men who were hidden in a
wheat field rose up and fred, killing Deputy
Marshal Stevens, and mortally woundng Clay
field. The Commissioner, who was in the
house, fled, but received one ball through the
hat and second through his coat in escaping.
Mr.. Stevensis is highly respectable citizen, and
his death has caused great excitement through
out the district.
Provost Marshal McQuinston arrived here
this evening, after military force, and has re-
turned with two companies Of infantry and one
of cavalry.
He will arrest the parties, and enforce the en-
rollment at all hazards. si4r et
Gov. Morton sent Gen. Mansfield, Of the Le-
gion, with the expedition. He has instructions
to call out the militia if necessary, to preserve
the pence. h Ea*
