fr .HtHHI rates.

r .af1E"I rates.
The Socrates OF our imagination is
very different man from the Socrates of
cotemporaneOus Athenians. To them he
was no more than an idle lOunger in the
public places and corners of the streets;
grotesque, severe, repulsiye in his person;
affecting in the oddities of mis- walking
and in his appearance many of the man
ners of the mountebank Neglecting the
pursuit of an honest calling, for his trade
was that of a stOne-cutter, he wasted his
time in discOursing with such youths as
his lecher0uS cOuntenance and satyr-like
person could gather round him, leading
them astray from the gods of hisIcOuntry;
the fiimsy veil Of his hypOcracy being too
transparent to conceal his infidelity. =
The good woman, Xantippe, is, to all APP
pearance, one of those characters who are
unfairley judged of by the world. Socra-
tes married her because of her singular
conversational powers; and though he
himself possessed extraordinary merits; In
that respect, he found, to his cost, when
too late, that so commanding were her
excellencies, that he was altogether her
inferior. Among the amusing instances
related of his domestic difficulties were
the consequences of his invitations to per-
sons to dine with him, when there was
nothing in the house wherewith to enter
tain them; proceeding severely trying
to the temper Of Xantippe, whose course
would ,unquestiOnably be defended by the
matrons of any nation. 1t was nothing
but the modification Of a high-spirited

sixty days ago, George E. Cole, over his own sig.
nature, applied to the United States Assistant
Assessor at Lewiston, Idaho Territory, for q
License as merchant at that place.
Remember That the said Cole is not citizen
Of Walla Walla county, and has not been for
over year; that Lewiston, bis place Of busi.

Perces county, which in March, 1858, became a
part Of the Territory Of Idaho.
That said Cole is in the interests Of the Orc.

their candidate for Congress; and that they seek
by his election to secure the annexation Of the
country east Of the Cascades 10 idaho Territory,
with the view Of ultimately adding tho remainder
Of this Territory to the State Of Oregon.
That this scheme Is intended to give TO that
great monopoly the control Of the Columbia River

sentiments, and crying out for "a more vigorous
prosecution Of the war;" let no opportunity es.

adopted to crush the rebellion; and yet they
claim to be good citizens! They are known as
Peace Democrats or COpperbcads. They are not
peculiar to Washington Territory. Wefind them

the Knights Of the Golden Circle and secret foes

Sept. 3Oth, 1868.


In consequence of an unfortunate disagree
ment, between myself and the Comma nder-n-
Chief of this Department, have been relieved
OF my command, and am about to retire from
the Army.-Without attempting to explain
the circumstances of this disagreement, or pre-
judicing the public mind, by premature ap-
peal to its judgment, must be permitted to
express my unqualified conviction of the rccti-
tude of my conduct and that time and investi-
gation will amply vindicate my action on the
field of the Chickamauga.
| cannot, however, part even temporarily
with the gallant officers and soldiers of my old
Corps, without the deepest feeling of regret
and a heartfelt expression of my gratitude for
the courage, conduct and devotion they have
always manifested while under my command,
Belmont, Shiloh. Perryvillc, Murfreesbor-
ough and Chickamauga all attest on your part
the very highest soldiery qualities and arc

and ever yielded ready and cheerful obedi-

Soldiers who struggle in such a cause and
with such hearts "can never be conquered"
Clouds and darkness may enshroud you ior
time, but the sunlight of the future is bright
and glowing the blood of patriots is never shed
in vain, and our final victory is certain and as
surcd.
Whoever commands you, my earnest cxhor-
tation and request to you is, to fight on and
fight ever, with true hearts until your indie
pcndence is achieved of hearts
may fall crushed and bleeding under the weap-

friends, hut the great cause must never be sac

just and your duty to your country and God
is as clear as the sun in the heavens.
leave my command in the care of the
bravcst of the brave, who has often led them
in the darkest hour of their trials he and you
will have my hopes and prayers to the Ruler
of the Universe for your happiness and success.
Your kindness, devotion and respect for. me
