The SECOND CAvALRY.-The Columbus
Journal, in speaking of the I'd Ohio Cav
airy, which has been ordered to prepare
to leave Camp Chase. and report to Gen.
Rosecrans at Nashville, says:
iAbout 600 horses have been recently
purchased by Capt. Burr for this regiment.
And, although obtained at the low aver
age of SSS, they are the best lot of horses
ever bought in Ohio for army service
Major Burnett has shown, in his inspec-
ton of these animals, that he has at least
learned in the wide experience of the
regiment in the far West. what " blood "
is fit for cavalry service. He had the en-
tire number brought out of the stables,
and placed abreast on the line of the Ma.
tional road. In a short time all the com
panies will be furnished-the division OF
horses being according to color"

The

1t is well known that the Committee
on the Conduct of the War. are at the
present time investigating, under author
ity of the Senate, whether any officers
under Burnside, while the latter was com
handing the Army of the Potomac, came
to Washington to complain of his plans
and to urge the President to intercede
and prevent their execution. To many
this has been a secret. Wilkes Spirit
has the following on the subject:
The secret is just this About three
weeks ago, or perhaps four, when Gen,
eral Burnside had prepared for a crossing
of the Rappahannock and a general as,
sault upon the enemy-the weather be-
ing such as to invite an attack-General
Franklin sent sent two officers on to
Washington. of whom was our John
Cochrane, to demonstrate with the Presi,
dent against the imprudence of the plan
and predicting its certain failure. Mr.,
Lincoln Immediately countermanded the
attack, and sent orders to that effect to
General Burnside. Burnside then went
to w lshington, but it was too late. The
mischief had been done, and when he
was next ready to advance the rain and
mud caught him in his movement and
he was forced to abandon the design.

New York. Feb. 20

Col. Charles C. Hicks, of the rebel ar
my, and late detective for the rebels in
Richmond, was arrested this evening at
the st. Nicholas hotel.
The Post has information through q
gentleman from Richmond, that the rebel
army has done growing that every man
in the South between the ages of Is and
40, who can bear arms, is now in the SER
vice.
There is a bill before the rebel Congress
conscripting even foreigners and Mary
landers.
The supplies of the rebel army, except
shoes, are better than they have been.
The rebels are reported short of pow
der, and forage scarce, while the people
on the route to Fredericksburg, are at
the point of starvation.
Our informant is certain that there is a
formidable rebel force in front of Hooker,
and laughs at the assertion that Lees ar
my has gone to Vicksburg.

The Appeal of the 9th saws, now there

Excitement in Summit ounty.

The Summit Beacon says, on Friday last
). 5. Wilson, Treasurer of Summit Coun'
ty, handed the keys to Auditor Grouse,
together with a paper, addressed to the
Commissioners of the county, rendering
his resignation, and then, instead of his
going to his home in Northampton. took
the cars for Hudson, and from thence
left for parts unknown.
There are many Iumors i'm connection
with the sudden departure of Mr.. Wilson.
mostly of Al scandalous nature, tile general
purpOrt of which is, that the cause of hi;
thus abandoning his family, and a honor
able. social and official position which he
held, was a too close intima'y with the
wife of one of his neighbors, by whom il
is said, he is to be accompanied on his
l~Journeyings, she having left her home on
the same day, ostensibly for the purpose
of visiting friends in the State of Michi-
gan. OF the truth of these rumors We
have no means of knowing, and would
caution the public against giving too
great credence or currency to them, lest
innocent parties should suffer thereby.
The funds due the State had been duly
paid into the State Treasury by Mr.. Viii
son, on the Tuesday previous to his res.
ignation, while every dollar of the Coun-
ty, School, and Township money was
found OF hand. and is now ready to be
paid out to the various persons author
lied to receive it.
Taken all in all, this is one of the most
singular and un|accountable circumstances
that has ever TRANSFERRED in Summit our
ty. Quiet and unassuming in his man
ners, and apparently ever attentive to his
official and private business, Mr.. Wilson
would have been almost the last person
to whom the community at large would
have looked for complication of any kind
whatever, calculated to bring disgrace
upon himself and family; and in common
with many others, it is still u hope that
there is some terrible mistake about the
matter.

A gentleman from Milwaukee, with his
daughter, visited Camp Douglas yesterday,
but could not gain admittance. Through
the gateway, much TO his establishment,
he espied his son in ragged butternut

his home in Wisconsin for the South five
years ago. and enlisted in Arkansas
The father told his boy (now probably
twenty-three years of age that he had
a good home for him. and food and clothes
"a plenty of eyerything-if he would
take the oath of allegiance and come
home. If not, that he must never cal

Negro Regiments in New York in 1914

In the last war with Greak Britain,
the State authorities of New York did
not hesitate to give colored men n
chance to enlist in IL armies. In 1914,
as is stated by the Buffalo Commercial, the
Legislature of New York passed an act
to authorize the raising of two regiments
of men of color. The bill was reported
by II committee of the Senate of which
Martin Van Buren, was chairman. Ii
had all but three votes in the Senate.
After passing the House the bill passed
the Council of Revision. which consisted
of the Governor. Chancellor and Judge
of the Supreme Court. Judge Ken was
a member of the Council. and he had
only one objection 10 the bill. He
thought negro soldiers should elect their
own officers, which bv the law were to be
white men and appointed by the Gov
ernor. The act provided that slaves
could be enlisted. and for their manumis-
sion when discharged.-C2ersland Herald

(Mr. J. R. TBoXPsoN) says in a letter dated
on the 7th of JanuaTy:-It is a little re
markable that, simultaneous with the
receipt of L1NcoLN's bloody proclamation,
we should have such a sweet little olive
branch held out to US as that which Mr..
JAS. BRooKs, of New York, extends in his
speech TO the Democracy of hat city on
the evening of the 30th ultimo. Mr..
Books would invite us TO meet in con-
v~ention at Louisville and reconstruct the
Union. Can it be possible that a man of
his sense does not see how utterly absurd
Is such a proposal? Shall We go back to
a political and social partnership with
the infamous herd whose utter blackness
and vileness of character has only been
revealed by tie lurid light of war, and
from whom We have been fortunate TO
make our escape, even at the cost of raw
aged fields and desolate homesteads?-
Oh, no. Nh. BRooKs, we would rather not
be bound to a oorp and condemned to

The Miseries of East Tennessee.

A Louisville exchange of the 18th says
"A party of sixty loyal East Tennessee
ans arrived in this city last night from
their homes, having been forced away
through fear of the application of the
amended CONSUMPTION act, which exempts
no citizen between the ages of fourteen
and fifty-fve. Indeed, no one who is
able to carry a gun is overlooked, even
though they have a legal claim to exemp-
ton. These gentlemen are from the vi
cinity of Knoxville, and have suffered
much for the sake of loyalty. A state of
affairs d~eplorable beyond description,
they say, exists in that portion of Tennes-
see They were twelve days on their
way from Knoxville to this city. A num-
Der of them have enlisted in the service
of the Government since their arrival"

many of the Democrats in Congress re.
pudiated Vallandigham and his senti.
ments. 1t says nearly every one of them
cordially agrees with him, and that the
report that Judge Jewett cut him after
he made his speech. is utterly false. By
this denial, the Enquirer at once confesses
its shame and that of the colleagues of
Vallandigham.
