Hon. BEN WooD's SPEEcH. For this able,
manly, and highly eloqueut speech, which we
Pablish in another part Of our paper, we be-
speak perusal by every reader; it will well
repay the trouble. 1t is really refreshing to
the patriot in these times Of political wealth
ercocks, to fn6 that there are some whose
hearts beat true TO the principles Of constitu-
tional liberty, as taught by the fathers, which
include the sovereignty of the States, the free
dom Of speech and Of the press, the subordi-
nation of the military TO the civil authority,
the protection of .he citizen from arrest and
imprisonment, except upon due process Of law
aud a speedy trial by jury.
The DRAFT IN MAINLAND rigadier Gene
raj SHRIvER has recently made a report to
the Governorof Maryland upon the late draft
in this State, from which it would seem thai
it cost more than il come TO- This report states
thatthere arestll some substitutes coming iu at
Camp Bradford, provided by parties who failed
to report before, but who are now coming up
since an extension of time was granted to the
whole State. To obtain these who will not
report, lists will he at once placed ia tie
hands of the Provost Marshal General. TO
whom a reward Of twenty dollars and all ex-
penses viii be paid for each drafted nan
brought ia-that expense, if the party then
furnishes substitute, will be charged to him.
Gen. s.. recommends that the camp be closed
at an early day, if the recusInt drafted men
are not broughiin.
NEw HAMpsHRE ELEcrIoS.-So far as the re-
turns from the New Hampshire election have
Leen received, the probabilities now seem to
be that the Democratic candidate for Govern
or has been defeated by the combination OPP
posed 10 him. But, whether he is elected, or
falls short of an eection by few dozen votes,
it is still Democratic triumph New Hamp-
shire--whieh, in the Presidential election,
gave Mr.. l.INcoLS majority OF nearly twelve
thousand over Mr.. DouGbAs--now gives an
anti-slavery majority OF ut least seven thou
sand, showing, in that small State, Republi-
lots Of nearly twenty thousand votes. II
they regard this as a victory, how many such
Victories can they stand without utter prusti a.
ton For Congress, MACY democrat, is
certainly elected in the Frst District; and the
contest between 2oLLxs and GEORGE in the
Second District, is SO close that il can only be
decided hy the official returns.
Is The Oh CAPIroL-We have teen inform
cd that Messrs J A. b. LEONARD and SAMLL.
GLoYD, Of this county who we're arrested by
the military last week, aud carried to Pooes
vile, we're transferred to the Oid Capitol pr-
son On Tuesday last. The Washington Star,
Of Wednesday, says
"These men ! appears, have leen among
fhe most active Of the Rebels in their section

Gloyd shot 1t a solaer VINO was attempting
To capture the Rebel Captain Owens and two
other Rebel officers who we're secreted in his
house, and concealed the horses of Rebels in
the pines
We incline to the opinion that, whenever an
investigation Of these cases shall he made, it
will appear that there is some mistake ia the
above specifications
