and to vouchsafe 20 the army ana navy Of the
United states on the land and on the sea, so sig
able grounds for augmented confidence that the
Union Of these States will be maintained, their
Constitution preserved and their peace and
prosperity permanently preserved; but these
victories have been accorded not without sacri-
Zee Of life, limb and liberty, incurred by brave,
patriotic and loyal citizens. Domestic aflicton

bellion to change the hearts Of the insurgents /;
70 guide the counsels Of the Government with

Morgan and his Men in the PenitentiarJ.
The following are the instructions Civ
en- by Governor Tod to the Warden of the
Penitentiary, regarding the treatment of
Morgan and his men:
"You will carefully search each prison,
er ss he may be handed over to you, and
take from him all arms and articles Of
value money included), and carefully pre-
serve the same until you may receive fur
ther directions touching the disposition
thereof.
"YOu will keep said prisoners 50 far as
may be possible, separate and apart from
the conVicts. You will furnish them every
thing necessary in the way Of food and
clothing for their comfort, and impose only
such restrictions upon Them as may be
necessary for their safe keeping. You will
permit no one to hold interviews, or com
munIcations, by writing or otherwise, ex-
cept by written or telegraphic order from
General Burnside.
{" You viii employ such additional force,
for guard or other duty, as you NAV deem
necessary.
"Should clothing be required for the
prisoners, you viii make requisition upon
me for, the same.p

Ed. LEADER The tory nominee for
Governor of Ohio, in his recent letter
to the people of Ohio, dated Niagara Falls,
says, Travelling a thousand miles or
more through nearly one half Of the Con-
federate States, and sOjourning for time
at widely different points, met not one
man, woman or child who was not resolved
to perish rather than yield to the pressure
Of arms even in the most depsrate extrem-
ity."
General Grants experience is different.
Without travelling half the distance in
the Confederate States which this Copper
head claims to have done, he found in
single lot some twenty or thirty thousand
who chose to "yield to the pressure of
arms" rather than perish. Would it not
have been prudent for this would-be his
Excellency" to have left out the word
"msn" in the above extract. as facts with
respect to this class are much against his
statements for the last thirty or forty
days.

Oar National staff Of Life
The New York Times congratulstes the
country that bread is likely to prove the
staff Of life to the nation as well as to man.
Since the Crimesn war, America has, in
great part, fed Europe. The prospects of
European war at this time give assurance
that there viii be even more breadstuffs
needed from America than ever before.
In time Of war, agricultural pursuits do
not flourish, and war in Europe is thus
significant Of peace and unexampled pros
perity to the United States. The grain
crop Of America for 1868 win be immense,
and a very large portion Of it viii be
wanted in Europe. Any warlike eompli-
cation would cut of the supply, and hence,
the physical necessities Of the East and the
resources Of the West will be a better
guarantee Of non-interTention than treat
ies or promises.
Apparently this view is justihaBls and
conclusive. But it is nevertheless our
duty to make every possible preparation
for war, that we may be ready to negotiate
with either the sword or pruning-hook, as
may be desired.

Retaliation.


The Presidents order for the protection
Of those who wear the United States uni
form, whether white or black, from abuse,
causes no little vapOring on the part of the
chivalry, who are disposed to indulge q
trihe on the occasion, by striking defiant
attitudes. Nevertheless, it is gratifying
ly preceptible that the medicine is work
ing favOrably upon the barbarian symp-
toms of the rebels. 1t is asserted that
our colOred wounded troops in Chsrleston,
are cared for the same as the white wound
ed Yankee soldiers. The report that
oOlored prisoners Of war have been sent
into slavery, has not been contradioted.
The truth Of the statement viii be ascer-
tanned, and the Government viii take due
means to redress all such grievances.
1t certainly is not creditsble to chivalry
that their savage threats and practices
have made it necessary for the President
to issue such retsliatory order.

PerIls Of EnsIish Railway travelling.


PeTils Of English Railway Travelling.
Sundry inflated English travellers who
have written books about America, have,
when in want Of other material, filed their
space with dismal tales of the horrors Of
railroad travelling in America, until duels
and murderous ARRAYS in the cars, while
in motion, are looked upon by many Eng
lish readers as inevitable accomplishments
of journey through the United States.
But we have never had accession to chroni-
Gle more terrible affair than lately occur
red on board railway train on the North
western railway in England, and which
causes even the London Globe to say -
There is, literally, no security on any
English railway against outrage, fire or
murder" The English railway cars are
divided into compartments which seat but
very few passengers each, these compart-
ments being kept locked, and no possible
communication being had with the engi-
neer or the guard; hence a car may catch
on IRE and unless the officers happen to
see the fame or smoke, the car and all it's
occupants may be consumed before help is
afforded. So, too, q lady may be locked
into a car with villain and have no es-
cape for an hour from his insults or his
violence. In the case now referred to, two
gentlemen took passage by night express
from Liverpool to London. In their COM
partment was q moody looking Irishman
and an elderly woman. After the train
had left its last stopping place before
reaohing London, the Irishmsn, who was
maniac, suddenly attacked the two gentle
men with knife. After fearful strug-
gle, during which the lady lay insensibls
from the effects of terror, the madmsn was
overpoWered, but for forty miles, in the Ian
guage Of the Globe, the tragedy contin-
ued, one long act, a raving maniac held
down by the two men, all covered with
blood, lighted BY dim lamp and the gray
dawn" During all this time, neither the
noise of the struggle, the screams Of the
woman nor the yells of the madman, had
reached the guard.
Such scenes sre liable to be repeated
upon every English train Of cars. The
defamers Of American railway trains
will do well to turn their attention for q
time to the horrors Of an English railroad.

Postttoh of Rrutus D. CLAY.

a
This gentleman, just elected to Congress
in the Seventh Kentucky District (the
late Mr.. Crittenden's) is, it seems, one Of
the Pee1liar Kentucky Unionists, and, as
was his predecessor, Mr.. Crittenden, is in
favor efths Union but opposed to the Ad-
ministration and lis measures These Ken
tuozy Unionists are sell-stulti6sd men.
In letter accepting the nomination,
Mr.. Clay said "he was, and always had
been for the preservation Of the Gonstitu-
ton and the Union, and for vigorous
prosecution Of the war to sabdue the re-
beIliOn, and if elected would vote for the
necessary measures to carry on the war
to the extent Of the Nations present re-
sources" He also declares:
HAt the same time, am opposed to the
policy Of the Administration, as to the
abolition Of slavery, and the enlisting of
slaves as soldiers, and while in the State
Legislature voted for the various rssolu-
tions which were passed cOndemning
those measures"
al am not, and have never been, in ia
vor Of emancipation, either gradual, i'm
mediate or compensated"
1t may be that Mr.. Brutus Clay's posi-
ton is an improvement over that Of the
late John ]. Crittenden's, but we are un-
able to see it. These Kentucky politicians
are self-stultifed, self emasculated pOliti-
cal eunuchs, whose aid is negative
quality, and therefore inutile. They are
in favor Of the preservation Of the Union,
but oppose the most vigorous and import
ant measures of the Administration 10
save it. Can folly go further?

The following is doubtless excrutiat-
ingly severe, but after all is better than
murder. The chivalry permit some of the
black soldiers to live, in order to use them
as instruments with which to torment
"white Yankeesr The Charleston COu-
rier says:
"0f white prisoners we have aiken six
commissioned officers and 81 privates. OF
blacks it is said we have over 20, Of whom
several are severIy wounded. A wounded
negro is to be put into every ward Of the
white Yankees. The latter kicked at the
base alliance, but the surgeons have plain
ly told them that if they put themselves on
a par with the negroes as soldiers, the
same relation must be maintained under
all circumstances while Iney are IN our
hands. Public opinion will render the
verdict HSerVed them right"
"One Of the negroes is remarkably
sprightly fellow from Bermuda, where he
was educated as 8 soldier. His position is
that of an Orderly Sergeant"
