AN IMPORTANT LEGAL DEcIsIoN.-The
Atlanta zntclliycnccr, of the 10Th, publishes
an interesting decision, made by Judge
Hook, in a case brought before him by B.
+. Jones & Co. of Augusta, who filed bill
against W. T. Howell, Captain Oommissary,
praying for an injunction to restrain the
said Howell from taking away quantity
of sugar seized by him under the impress.
mcnt law, until full and fair compen
sation, according to tho market value,
should be paid The Judge, says the IN
tc1tigcncer, held that the price agreed upon
by the Commissioners under the law was
fair and just, and as to the position assum-
ed that the seizure was unnecessary, it was
sufficient reply that "thc National Legisla-
turc has declared in favor of its necessity
by the passage of the law"

From Knoxville We hear stirring news.
On Thursday it became known that Burn

some removals of stores, etc. The report
was that his advance was ouly eight miles
distant. The telegraph and postoliices were
closed AMI moved toward Dalton, and the
express company moved its Office eastward.
4 fight was expected without much delay.
We can learn nothing of the probable force
of the enemy or by which route his advance
was made.

are going on, and we earnestly hope they
will be pushed egpedltiuusly, so that we

NAILED TO THE COUNTER.

Alta late Abolition meeting in Pitts
burg, a big-belliod lawyer of that city,
named Bighdm, asserted, of his own
knowledge, that aftor the battle of
Gettysburg, Judge WOODWARD told his
eldest son that instead Of being wound
ed in the foot, "hs ought to hare been
pousdcd in the heart, for fighting in
such a cause" This statement was
published in the Abolition papers of
Pittsburg, revamped by the Hunting
don Globe and Harrisburg Telegraph
and will probably be re-echoed by the
equally slanderous sheet in this place.
OF course this foul SANDER was
brought to the notice Of Maj WooD-
WARD. Nothing could better illustrate
the utterly unscrupulous character of
the assaults upon Judge WOODWARD.
Nor can anything surpass the manli-
ness, or the spirit, in which the SIAN
der is met by young WOODWARD, in
the following letter. Poor Bighdm!
ne should never show his face again
among honorable men.

Libby Prison in Richmond, and, after
being pafoled, was taken 10 my fathers

weary months ] was confined to my bed,
suffering intensely, but with that suffering
alleyiated aud finally relieved, by not
only The best medical skin, but also by
the constant kind, unwearying attention
OF my father, mother and sisters. During
all that time, as indeed during my whole
life no father could be more kind, more
soicitous for a sons we liarc, than was
mine. Almost daily conversations occur
red between us, in which the war, and
the present and the future Of our country
were discussed and, although he freely
and often condemned, the man
ner in which the war was managed by tho
Administration, never did he utter a SEN
timent in sympathy with tho doctrine of
secession, nor syllable ofapproyal Of the
course taken by the people of the South !;
and never did he say aught which was not
calculated to encourage me in the per
formance of my duty as a soldier.
! have Leen thus full, air, in my refuta-
ton of your SANDER, not because you need
or deserve this kind of attention at my
hands, but because this refutation must be
made as public as was the oalumny, and
| desire the public to have the exact
truth in regard to this matter.
In conclusion, sir, will remark that
1t is poor encouragement to our soldiers
in the field 10 find that while toiling and
fighting for their country, lying politici-
ans at home are using them as the instru-
mcnts OF their partisan malice, and such
an instance rs this is fair illustration OF
the pretended love for soldiers which
certain parties parade so constantly -
That love must be- sincere indeed which
while it orerlays the soldier with fulsome
adulation, stabs to the quick all he holds
near and dear

CURTINS PLATFORM.

Three Abolition PAY-triots recently made
speeches in favor of Andrew G.. Curtin,
the shoddy candidate for Governor. One
was Thaddeus Stevens, who playfully said,
"1he Union as il pas, and the C0aStitutio l
as il is-God forbid Il"
The second was VIM. II. Armstrong.
who coolly informed his hearers that
il ,oaS better to lose battle in the felS than
the election in Pennsylvania"
The third was the notorious Benjamin
i. Butler who boldly announced TO his
Abolition audience that "6s was not for
The Union as il lgdS
As these three worthies we're employed
TO help Curtin, by Mr. Wayne McVeagh,
the Chairman of The Curtin State Com
mittee, they undoubtedly expressed the
opinions Of their shoddy leaders. Those
who are willing to endorse the treasona-
ble and disgraoefu sentiments quoted
above east their votes for Andrew G.

county may know that at the late battle Of
Chattanooga he was not idle.
General Steedman immortalized himself
by coming to our relief with the Reserve
Corps, and when one of his regiments was
retreating in disorder, he seized the old
flag, and ciying out "You shan't dishonor
the Old Flag p he boldly dashed towards
the Rebs, and the regiment rallied and
drove the enemy back. 1t was glorious
feat, and nobly did he perform il. His
horse was killed under him, and he was
slightly wounded in the hand.

SPLENDID DEMOCRATIC SPEECHES The
addresses of Messrs MILES and NoRrHRoP,
Of Philadelphia, at the Democratic meet
ing in the Court House on Wednesday
evening last, we're the ablest we ever had
the pleasure Of listening TO. The house
was well filed the bar and front seats
were occupied by ladies. Mr. NoRTHRoPs s
address was, without exception, elegant
and eloquent in the highest degree. Nor
did we ever witness a better reception
awarded to an intellectual entertainment.
Had the foul-mouthed correspondent of
Forney's Press been present, we venture
to say that epcn he could not write il down
that the people of Clearfeld are "gener-

was when Curtin was attending TO the
soldiers wants; "that when Judge
Woodward's gallant son came home from
Gettysburg, wounded IN both legs, his
father told him he ought to have been
wounded in the heart for fighting in such a
cause"
As my only brother capable Of bearing
arms, who has made two campaigns with
the State militia, has never been wounded,

Woodward alluded to in the foregoing
