1t is not impossible that Morgan may
be headed off in Ohio and forced to make
return raid through Indiana. Troops
rendezvoused at various points south of
Indianapolis will preserve their organi-
zatioSs, and hold themselves subject to
orders until further orders. Strict vigil

to make all necessary provisions for the

The Corpse Of a Union Soldier Dis
inferred BY Copperheads!

lasOnf "Wednesday of lsat.week was perpe-
trsted in our county, one Of the most dis
graceful acts which it has ever. been our
lot tosrecord. and which will brand the
guilty participants with infamy thro ugh
their whole fuIfre lives. -
Our readers will remember the announce
ment in our columns, a few months since,
of'the death OF our esteemed fellow-citizen.
F. e. Hamlet. soldier in the 10Th lndi-
ana " olunteers.. "A bout three months af-
ter his death, his body was sent home for
burial among his friends, in accordance
with his last wish, and was duly inferred
in graveyard not far distant from his
late residence. in New Castle Township
SO long time having elapsed since his
death, the, body was. of, course much de-
cayed, especially as it was impossible for
his son, who is still anember of the 10Th
to obtain an air-tight coffin Immediately,
aud for, these reasons. it was deemed inju.
dicious to open the coffin when it arrived
here
1t was but a short time until some cow
ardlys copperhead ste,ted the story that
Mr. Hamlet's body had not been brought
home, but that the cJffin. contained arms
with which the Abolitionists were abou,
to commence war upon the innocent and
unsuspecting Democrats With syes
starting from their sockets, these 6ravs
men rctalled the silly falsehood; aud. ab.
surd as the stupid invention seemed tc
men of sense. the whole hungry pack OF
cowardly New Castle hyenas swallowed
IL with delight. and threatened to disinter
the coffin. Few. however, deemed it pos
sble that the wretches would carry ou,
their threats. 1t seemed scarcely possible
that things could be found in the form o.
men. that would desecrate the grave of q
neighbor, who had fallen in the servic,
of his country. But partisan cowardice
and hate reach far enough to insult ever
the dead!
I Accordingly. on Wednesday Of last
week. a party of some 80 or 40 Of tn,
New Castle Copperheads. armed with ri
fes. shot-guns. revolvers. &c.. proceeded
to the grave, and having stationed thei
Ipickets. to prevent interruption. commea
ced their Infamous work.
I In the mean time, the wife Of the de-
ceased. and Mr.. Henry Hamlet. brother
having arrived. protested against the pro
ceedings. but in vain. The coffin wal
soon reached, and taken from the grave
The hyenas then proceeded to open it. bu
finding the lid well secured, they split il Of
scifh an or. and foand-the body of the
dead soldier! Their devilish malignity
being gratifed. they replaced the coffin il
the grave, and again filled it with earth.
| We have been unable to obtain a list o
the names of all the perpetrators of thi
outrage, as the leaders threatened TO kill
any person who should give the names o

GoIHo IT BLINp.-An . old sal" who
had been on bender, had got what
might be termed sublimely mystiied by
his frequent imbibing of the "crltter."
Shiyering along the streets he thought
lie would 60 TO the theatre and pass the
remainder of the evening. Following
some men he thought bound on the same
voyage, he found himself in what he
thought the pit, but it happened to be a
meeting house, and the minister was
preaching upon the text wherein is men
toned the sheep and the goats, and in
order to make an impress sion upon his
congregation he put the significant ques-
ton: "Who will be the goat ?" and
paused, and then with still greater EN-
phasis said "Who will be the goat .

delay, and he ut once responded A:

WAS AND PEAcE.-The last number
of the London Army and Vary Gazette,
in speaking OF the war in America, says !:
War, like an iron band, binds the
discordant factions of the North-aye,
and the jealous State autonomies of the
South-together now, and il IS only 0hen
the clasp may be lOosed by deceiyul
armistice, called peace, TIE scorld can in
deed see tie furies at aoork, rending euery
member Of great Repubiic."
The Gazette hits upon tie truth in this
paragraph Peace, on any other basis
than that of the Union, would unquas-
tionably be the signal for general dis
solution of all the bonds which have
hitherto held the nation together, and
made it respectable in the eyes of the
world. Is it at all strange, then, that
the great mass of the American people
should prefer war, willi all its horrors

FRIEND Rrcn In ancient times, deg
sis entered into swine, but in modern
times they have taken up their abode in
snakes an crawling things The swine,
abominating their domestic society, ran
down into the sea and drowned them.
King Copperhead swallowed the largest
devil be could find, of modern growth,
and ran off to Canada with him, where
in his subterranean den, he has been
rafting his lordshp's tail, TO intimidate
the loyal and encourage his poor father
less children-the imps and pimps Of the
once proud Democratic party. But.
alas, how fallen! The glory it once
had has forever departed--it dies-how
terrible its death--how tenacious of life
how it struggled for existence-but
all 10 no purpose. Freedom revives,
AMI slavery dies bastard Democracy
dies, and the heirs of freedom rejoice
rejoice in the triumphs of liberty-re-
joice in Abe Lincoln, the liberator Of
American bondmen- rejoice in the brow
beating Of Vallandigham, and the Stone
ing of his son Tuttle, even unto death.
No wonder that hallelu abs ascend from
the altar OF every patriot heart. Vallan'
digham is dead, gone TO his reward
political ignominy-D emocratic prosti-
tution-let him sleep the traitors sleep.
Storey, the bull dog Of all meanness, the
scum of the bottomless pit, would do well
to wrap his prodigal sheet, the ashy
Times, about him, and bury himself in a
like oblivion-treason's night. So
would advise D. A. Mahony, the after
birth Of secession, the apostle of bastard
Demo crazy patented in Iowa, and his
i,inerant" exhorter in Independence
The Democracy OF 1868 is worse than
Confederate scrip, full of rottonness and
putrid sores, and he who invests loses
all.
Let me, with the Guardian, rejoice in
your elections-rejoce that the light Of
freedom shines, that the scales are fall
ing from the eyes of the hitherto delu-
ded and blinded partizan-rejoice that
slavery and the power that rules or ru.
ms" is losing its supporters. that free
dom 10 all and righteous rule is in the
ascendency. The Government, the ad-
ministration, encouraged, supported,
backed up by the people, will put down
this rebellion, punish treason, and then
we shall eat our bread in peace, in peace
we shall live, and in death we will be
buried with our fathers, "with the flag
of our country proudly waving ovel

Let US thank God and take courage.

Among the curious phases of Iowa

of Iowa City. From the Muscatine Jcur-
nal we CLEAN the following facts relative
to this community. 1t says cit numbers
800 members and is divided into seven
villages. 1t is governed by trustees
elected by all the members Of the socie-
ty. The society has 10000 acres OF land
in one body. They have large stock OF
cattle, sheep and horses 700 head OF
cattle, 1900 head of sheep, and large
number of horses also 2,2O0 acres OF
land under cultivation. They are enga
ged to some extent in manufacturing, and
have good Touring and saw mill and a
large WOODEN factory in successful opera
ton. They card, spin, weave and full,
all kinds of wooden goods, running twelve
!ooms-nine narrow. and three for weav
ing broadcloth. Their machinery is of
the most perfect kinds. They will work
up this season from 5000 to 5000 bales
Of wool. The members Of the society
are all OF religious order. Everything
moves on in perfect harmony. When
necessary the women aid in outdoor
work. We saw twenty in ono carrot
patch. all at work. In the same field
eight teams were blowing. The society
is destined to become wealthy.
