Is This Treasonl

The New Haven Courier, an Abolition paper
which flies q. its mast head the name of old
Abe for President in 1864, "talks out In meet
In" in the following style:
Contractors have clrried on the war. The
D ood OF our men, the groans of the wounded
the tears of the orphans, and the wall Of the
widow, have been coined into money. .
They have swindled the Government out Of
hundreds OF millions. They have piled fortune
On o. fortune, aud as a distinguished officer at
Washington writes us, all the operations OF this
war are even managed by political sEindlers."
There is more truth In this than we USUALLY
find In Abolition newspapers, aud we can ONLY
account for 1t one way--the editor hasnot been
appointed to office or furnished with q fat
Government contract. This Ia the secret of bis
apparent honesty. OF course he will not long
DO permitted to talk "ireason" in this way, and
ias contract will be forthwith rendered him
to close his mouth from telling tales out Of

A tragedy occurred In Manhattan township

character anything which has ever tIanspired
in this vicinity, resulting 10 the death of Mrs

went out of the house, and after an absence OF
couple Of hours returned, and Was met at the
door by his brother Alonzo, having o gun In bis
hand, who informed Amos that he had killed
bis wife and two daughters, and Intended to kill
him alec. On this Alonzo drew up his gun and
snapped 1t at his brother, and soon after snapped
it again, when he retired TO another part of the
house. Mr.. Amos BfoWn then managed, In
some way, to send for some of his neighbors
residing at some distance whom, he knew to
have gune, but while awaiting their arrival
others OF his neighbors, among whom was Mr..
Jonathan Wynn, came with arms, prepared to
shoot the murderer on the spot, upon the fret
demonstration. Seeing there Was no chance for
escape, the murderer deliberately swallowed
the contents of vial of strychnipe, which II is
said he carried with him tar month. He then
threw the vial out Of doors, then vent up stairs
with his rife cooked and knife drawn, prepared
TO kill any one who might attempt 20 arrest
him. There he died in about twenty minutes
alter swallowing the poison. ,1..S
