A SIGNAL REHUKE.

The telegraph has already alluded to the war
speech made in Savannah by Senator John CONFESS,
of California. We find the speech in late California
paper, aud specially commend the following extract
10 lhose editors who claimed the election of Mr..
Conness as Democratic victory. Thopewly elec-
ted Senator said
ave have a noble President There is Pres
ident at the head OF the Government. Abraham
Lincoln may not be the greatest man in the United
SisteR but tell you fellow ctzenS, that our coun
try is blessed of God iE giving good and great
a man in the Presidency in this great crisis. Tho
cunning villain who, pending this great struggle,
seeks the qualification Of personal interest alone,
may nov and then have imposed upon that great
and good man, but IL ths main his measures have
been wise, at all times his conduct has been Just
Throughout this great trial aud struggling, his pa
triotlsm has been of the same character aud stamp
as that Of the great and immortal Washington.
Bot say these obectors, the supporters Of this Ad-
miniStratou aTe Alolitlopsts, Beauregard advises
his Southern friends TO denominate the soldiers Of
the Government AbolitiOnsts, and craven dirt-eat-
ing, false sons Of the North echo and follow the ad
vice Why, wcitizensi Abolitioust were the
basest creature that heretofore disgraced the
earth, he would yet be perfection compared with
the miserable gFstches who set up such pretenses
while thoir countrys life is at stake. What Is IL
to be an Aboltionist1 Ii is that the person, who
ever he may be, is in favor Of abolishng something
These men would not abolish slavery they would
not blot out or abolish Slavery, though il stood at
the nations throat, taking the Dation's life. But
they would stand by while their country was being
abolished and being stricken from the map of the
world. Shame upon such Abolitionists. Shame
upon the apolitopists who are in favor of, or who
stand quietly by while the attempt Is being made
to abolish country, TO abolish Government 80
bsnehcent so wise, so grand in the scope Of its
great work Of giving civil liberty 10 the earth"

A Badly Scared Comprehend.

From tho Fostoria Ne'u', Of last week, we learn
that a man living some two miles west Of Divers
Tavern, in this county, was out making speseh
some weeks ago, dsnouneing the war and the AbOli-
ioniSts in strong and bitter terms He came home
in the night and retired, with his sins proying upon
his mind the door being left ajar, large black
dog entered his house and was walking around
taking general view of thiags. The noise of the
intruder awakened the gentleman, who, whispering
10 his wife, said an AbOlitioniSt mob was coming
70 taxa his life,
HIS wife started from her bed, when the dog be-
coming frightened, turned over = chair in his exit
from the house; the inmates began to cry murder
ths son sprahs frOI his bed seized his gun, rushed
out OF the house, looking in all directions for An
AbolitiOnist He finally imagined he saw one, and
leveling his gun with sure and deliberate aim, be
fred and retreated TO the house. Resting upon
their arms all night, they sailed out in the morn

migrated TO Texas, and there joined the Confederate
army, came out of Nicksburg with dispatches from
Psmberton 10 Johnston, and instead of going tC
Jackson as directed took bee line for Grants

cous contents. Grant sent Douglas up the river
yesterday on the steamer Sutana.
1t is reported that Johnston has received large
achievements

The rebel garrison, said to be $4,000 strong, was
entirely hemmed in, with no chance of escape
Banks had built his lines Of circumvallation to pro
tect his rear and was in excellent spirits and hope
ful Of entire success.
On the cath, after furioAs cannonade, the rcb.

to march out with the hOnors Of war. Banks de-
sired unconditional surrender. subsequently
he sent flag of truce renewing this demand, when
the enemy replied that they would hold the position
while they had men enough to man the guns.
The news from Helena is interesting. General
Price is reported to have removed his entire force
from Little Rock to Fort Smith, leaving behind but

with weather more appropriate for March than

in its nature, than has exhibited up to this date
These June mornings are positively unhearable

can be duly appreciated. Some have predicted a
cold summer, from the fact that the past winter
was remarkably mild ana pleasant, Gpd refer to
the year 1916 as 4 precedent, in confirmation of
the correctness of their prophecy The summer Of
that year is recorded in history as the Cold Sum
mer. There was fros. and ice during every month
in that year and tine winter previous is represented
having been mild In a remark able degree. The
summer of 1888 may be a cold one-and it may
not. We shall see.
