1t is one Of the most cheering prospects
of the times that the people are coming so
generally 20 an understanding of the de.
mands of true loyalty. The contrast be-
tween the elections last year and this year
is due mainly to the p'ogress made in this
regard. The very same Copperhead argu-
ments and appeals which were so effectual
then, accomplish comparatively nothing
now. Ali the objections which are brought
out against the Administrations are nc
counted rs but dust In the balance against
tho vital necessities OF unfolding the Gov
eminent through its constituted Authori-
ties. The great majority of the people
have learned what unconditional loyalty Is,
and what its requirements are; and in
passing upon candidates they no more
think of making q distinction between
Copperheads of this stripe and that stripe,
than they do between this and that sort of
tories in the Revelation, or this and that
sort Of FederAlists in the last war with
England. They. who are not for sustaining
the authorities OF the Government in this
emergency, they put down as dnfaithfal
to the Government; and between such
they neither look nor care for any differ,
euce. They place the same. brand upon
the whole herd. L. - L - -

4 FORTHCOMING LETTER.

- z AAAAAVAAAI<AE LIZ
We learn upon undoubted authority that
among the letters seized at JEFF. Davis
place in Mississippi, was one from one Of
the LAHadoEs, in this city, dated in 1860,
in which the necessity, duty, and safety Of
secession were urged in such English as
those igDoramcscs know how to write.
The argument in the epistle was, that in
tie event Of secession, the North would be
divided, and that, owing to the division,
the Union might be broken up with per
Iect impunity to those engaged in the ne
furious work.
We state the fact, having no doubt ofits
correctness. The course Of the family, hc
and she, since the rebellion broke out, is
proof enough that there is in it the capa-
biiity for that sort Of treason, and that the
members thereof nre still active in their
tndeavors. We have sent for the letter in
question, and its publication at an early
day will justify and excuse what we now
say. It is well to have the traitors among
ne unmarked and exposed.
Until the letter comes. Gt may by this
.time lave gone beyond our rcach) We beg
our readers to remember that the writer
is one Of the model Peace Democrats, and
that, in his opinion, the war for the "suh-
jugation" Of the 8outh, the enforcement
of order and the authority Of the Govern
ment, is murder, for which the Federal
troops will never be forgiven. He is ,
typical representative Of the school t.
which he belongs fit mouth-piece fo'
that cry Of aboltionist;" ;" fanatic" mig
gct-worshippcr;" which the Peaee partl
lave sci up.

. Little Crow Killed.


Correspondence st. Paul Press.J
CAuF O1IS, July =, 1868.
The lrxss Of July 10th, contains spirited
account of the killing ofan Indian near Hutch
inson, Mcleod county, IN the course ofwhlch
occurs the following paragraph:
The body was Brought In about or o'clock in
the afternoon, and formed the center Of attraction
for an hour or two Many instantly reco 5aized the
body. He was well known In Hutchinson. he is
age. Both his arms are wtthercl and deformed by
evident breaking and permanent displaeenent Of
the bones-the palpahle result Of rough handling
be bears considerable resemblance to Little Crow.
who is also well known here; but this Indian is
lighter comple1ioned than Little Crow.
This paragraph Immediately arrested the
marked Intention Of Gen. Sibley, who ut once
stated that tho description in the Press an-
swe1ed perfectly to that Of Little Crow, with
whom he had long been intimately acqualut-
ed. Major Brown and Captain Forbes, for
many years familiar as brothers with Little
Crow, coucurred entirely In the Generals
opinion that the Indian Killed BY Mr. Lamp
son, was in al probability the yeritable
the Half Breed or Indian scouts In camp
whom they consulted, knew OF had heard Of
any other Sioux but Little Crow having this
peculia1ity Of "withered arms and perms.
nent displacement Of the BONES" The age
Of the Indian killed ta11ies exactly with that
OF LlIIle tIoW, hau IL IL cu4s!ueFe1 Us q
strongly corroboratiye circumstance that the
citizens Of Hutchfnson,. who knew Little
Crow, should haYe detected the resemblance
to TINT Chief.
In addition to this, all accounts received
from ynrious sources concur in stating that
Little Crow left Devils Lake some time ago,
for Yellow Medicine, With few followers.
It is thus almost impossible to resist the con,
clusion that Little Grow was the Indian killed.
We have travelled thirty miles since Monday
morning, and shall Tomorrow press forward
with ali possible speed to the described loca.
ton Of the Sioux camp, where We expect to
detach Standing Buffalo from the hostile
bands, If he does not advance to meet us hall
way, which ID considered probable.

there was any such armed organization IN the
State. On the other hand they have oee9 ae.
ncuncirg the Union Leagues as organized and

threatening that it would become necessary
for the Democracy to do the same. This vas
done to throw dust in the eyes Of the people,

Of 5000 men. The writer, in his exnltatton

to all the former protestations Of the Leading
Copperhead papers. He describes their dI1u
as perfect, eQualto that Of our best regiments.

The amount of sugar cane-C Chinese, Imphec
and Otaheitan-p1an.ed this season, Is very
large. We have not much Information, as
yet, aB to the condition Of its growth, but
have heard from few districts On the Illinois
Central Railwny.
In the town # PERA. Champaign county,
there have been about 500 acres planted. The
cane is growing finely, and will produce an
ayerage crop.
In the town Of BULKLET, Iroquo1s county,
about the came number of acres as In Pera
are under cultivation. A part Of 1t looks
promising, willie much looks thin and will
not produce more ttan half an ordinary crop.
In the township Of OSARGA, Iroquois coun-
ty, there were about 400 acres planted, and
The crop will prove fair one, the late show
efs having much improved it.
In the township Of CLIFTON, lroquois conn
II, the drouth see1ns to hare been more severe
than at any other point in that vicinity, and
the stand looks poor and small. There will
probably be not more than half crop.
In EASkAKrE, the sugar cane looks well,
and will be q medium crop. 4 considerable

Zee, but has suffered much from the drouth.
at BoraBoSsA1s GROVE, the French settle

At MlE1ENo, Kankakee county, there are
about 4C0 acres OF cane growing. This place

west, particularly those Of Illinois, propose
to incorporate into the " Constitution as it
