as spy by the Military Court at Cincin-
natl, was legally and properly tried, ac-
cording to the rules. and articles; tried
and convicted-that that was clear case
where the Court had jurisdiction?
A. 1t is my recollection that he de-.
nounced the Court as an unlawful trbu-
nal and did not make the distinction.
@. by Judge Advocate. Did he refer
to the case Of Campbell, the rebel spy, and
make any distinction?
Ans. No. He denounced the Court
first. and then gave the instances, which
| have already related in my direct te,ti
mony.
@. by Vallandigham. Do you not
remember my speaking Of the Campbell
case, and saying that he was properly
tried
Ans. He may, but I do not recollect
ii. He probably did refer to the Camp
bell, case.
Q. May not have made the distinc.
ton and you have not heard it
The Judge Advocate said he would al
nit that the accused did draw the dis
tinction between the cases. and that be ad
mitted the rightof the Court to try the
spy. In other words, that he condemned
the trial Of the Butler country man ant
approved the case of the spy who was
tried and convicted.
@. Did not distinctly, in the conclu-
sion Of the speech, enjoin upon the pco-
pie to stand by the Union at all events
and that if war failed, not to give up the
Union, but to try by peaceable means,
by compromise, to restore it, as our faith
ers made it, and that though others
might consent, or be forced to consent
would not myself be one of those who
would take any part in agreeing to dis
solution of the Union =?
a. Yes. He said that he and the peace
men were the only ones who wished tn
restoration Of the Union?
@. Did not one of the banners you re.
ferred to as decorated with butternuts
bear the inscription, "The Constitution
as it is, and the Union as it was ?"
A. The banners were numerous. On,
of them, l believe, did bear that inscrip
tion,
Q. Do you mean to be understood t.
say that | heard the reference to Jeff. Da
Wis in the crowd, or gave any assent tc
it whatever
A, l cannot say that he did. Did moi
see or hear him give any assent to it.
There were many other remarks of tina
character uttered.
Q. What was the size of the crow,
assembled there
A. do not know the proper estimat
but the crowd was very large.
The Court then adjourned to Tuesde
morning at 10 o'clock.

ings and testimony were read and APP
proved, and were signed by the President.
Captain Hill was again called to the
stand, and his cross examination resum-
ed by Mr.. Vallandigham.
@. In speaking of the character of the
war, did not expressly say as Mr.. Lin
coin in his Proclamation Of July l, '62.
said: "This unnecessary and injurious
civil war"
Judge Advocate, to Mr.. Vailsndig-
ham, was that used in your speech as a
quotation from the Presidents Proclama
ton
Mr.. Vallandigham. Yes, it was.
Witness. do not recollect that he
did. The language he made use Of un-
derstood to be his own.
Mr.. Vallandigham. OF course I cod
not put'the quotation marks in my speech
@. Again: in speaking of the charac'
ter of the war, did not expressly give
as proof the Presidents Proclamation OF
September %, 1862, and January l, '63,
declaring the emancipation of the slaves
in the Southern seceeded States, as proof
that the war was being waged for that
purpose ?
The witness was about to answer, wher
the Judge Advocate checked him. Ht
said it was bringing out matters which
were foreign to the cnarge and speeifica
ton, and that the Court was not called
upon to pass upon the merits ofthe Pres
ident's Proclamation. He then desire,
that the Court should be closed for delib
Grafton.
Mr.. Vallandigham. l desire to shoy
this fact, in explanation of the purpos
and object of my declaration as to tn
presen character of the war; and as IN.
authority for the statement, for assum
that tho president is not disloyal.
The Judge Advocate insisted that tn
question required the Court to pass judg
ment upon the merit of the President
Proclamation, and not whether hi
TMr. ", was expressing his own senti
ments or those of the President.
The Judge Advocate said the question
could not be admitted.
@. Did you continue at the sam
place during the delivery of the whol
speech ?
A. I did.
@. Were your notes taken at the tim
or reduced to writing afterward
A. They were taken at the time, sn
as they fell from the speakers lips.
@. Were you not in citizens clothes
And how came you to be at Mt. Verno
that day? Did you go to Mount Verno
for the purpose of taking notes and re
porting the speech
Judge Advocate l object to this quei
ton on the ground of its immateriality
Mr.. Vallandigham insisted on the que'
ton on the ground that it explained Il
temper and spirit of the witness, and hi
preiudices, and as showing that tho notC
f were taken with reference to the ARE
, and prosecution before this Commission

The question was objected to by tn
Judge Advocate, and the Court was clea

would be allowed.

ANOTHER DEMOCRAT KILLED.-On Thursday
OF last week, about three hundred soldiers
passed the Wooster Station on their way II
Columbus. While the train was stopping, some
dozen went into the bar room of the Slegel
House, kept near the depot by Dutchman Of
the name Of Limp, and called for whisky
They oil drank, and told him to charge 1t to
Vallandgham. He said "all right" and they
went out. He locked the door and they de-
manded admittance again. He told them they
could not come in, as he had treated them once,
and that was all he could do for them. Imme-
dIately they broke in his doors and Windows.-
Limp ran. They cut him with ssbres and bay
onetted him In the arm and side. He rau
through three lots and tried to get over fence.
They caught him and threw him oyer--being
man who weighed two hundred and forty
pounds. Ills shirt was torn of his back. His
children were crying for them to desiat. and
his wife begged them TO spare his life. They
pushed her away, damned her for all kinds Of a
bitch, aud dragged the poor man off on the
train. The Military committee telegrsphed 10

Removing the Cause.

Quacks are great on removing the causes Of
disease. The noted empiric who Was shell on
its," derived his confidence from hs power Of
striking at the cause. Every new nostrum makes
lite way directly to the root of all our ills. II
renovates the physical constitution, and gives
It new life, vigor and endurance, and all by vir.
tue of its power OF removing the cause of sick
ness, decay and death.
The quack' In medicine is fair type Of the
quack In politics. The latter, like the former,
finds out, or fanoes he has found cut, the source
of all the troubles in the body polite, and forth
with raises terrible outcry about removing
the cause. He denounces every sane man, who
don't believe in the nfallibility Of bis prescrip-
tion, as o rebel and Q traitor.
There may be rebellion-a formidable one
existing In the country, requiring the most
cautious as well as the most energetic treatment
for its suppression; yet the Political quack,
having penetrated. as he imsgines, down deep
into its latent cause, would, for the cake of
removing that cause, get up q counter rebellion
or revolution more formidable than the one fret
started This, he insists, with great pertinao
ity and never-ceasing volubillty, is absolutely
necessary 10 order to utterly and totally ami.
hllste the cause. Proceeding on the same
principle, the medical qusck snnihilsses the
patient, when 10 becomes useless to inquire
after the cause Of the disease The political
quack, with his nostrum for annihllating the
cause Of rebellion by getting up countef-re-
belllon, would annihilste the Constitutlon and
the Union, and extlnguish the Republic of
WAsHIReroN and the fathers.
But such consequence is very trifng mat
ter In the eyes of your genuine political quack.
he is a bloodless, cold-hearted animal, who
ptides himself on nothing go much as in the
power and venom with which he hates and per-
secutes those who differ from him, and especial
ly those who think his scheme OF saving the
Union by encountering one rebellion, for the
maintenance Of slavery, with another for lie
destruction, would result in the utter and total
dissolution Of that Union. Like oil blgots, the
political quack is blatant In his professions for
justice and humanity, while showing no real
practical regard for either.

There are two or three privations herenbout
