VAt the coppcrhead meeting in New York,
held to express sympathy for the unfortunate
men who, under undue excitement or no excite
ment at all, arc so forgetful rs to bctray their
country, quite "a episode" happened, which
illustrates the character of the sympathizers.
On the morning after the meeting stranger
rushed into bank on Broadway and hurriedly
told the porter that he wanted to stop the pay
ment on check. To do this he was requested
to write memorandum and sign II to be hand
cd to the cashier. The stranger did as request
cd, when the following dialogue took place:
$50 you arc James A. McMiastcr, editor Of
The Frceman's Journall"
eyes" .r-
"What has become of the checkl"
"It was stolen, with my pocket book, last
night, by some Abolitionist, at the Union Square
meeting."
"Abolitionist |! Why, did not suppose one
of that sort would dare go near the meeting"
"But they did. and have lost both pocket
book and check"
"whcrc were you when you were robbed ="
"I ,pas speaking on the stand oith Norton,
Tharin, .McCunn and Blackman.
"What do you mean to say that while
speaking for free speech in such company,
some abolitionist appeared on the stand and
plundercd youi An abolitionist hobnobbing
with Norton and McCuunr"
The member from Fort Lafayette could hard
ly insist that the democrats iraterniled with
the abolitonists to the extent Of filling their
platform with them to the exclusion Of their
own brethren.

RErALIArIoS-we are glad to sec that the
Government has declared Its policy to protect
the black soldiers against the rebel threat to
not regard them Us prisoners OF war. To do
otherwise than protect them, would DO to inau-
gurate system more barbarous than Southern
slavery. We are glad that this policy is to be
pursued, that is. IL the democracy don't think
It unconstitutional. Maj. Gen. Hunter has
written q letter, or some one has for him, to
jeff. Davis, and the letter is published in the
Free South (rather an irregular proceeding, II
gcnuinc), in which he says:
The u. s. flag must protect all its defenders.

employ of the Government In the Western De-
partment, have been cruelty murdered by your
authority, and others sold into slavery. Every
outrage of this kind against the laws OF human
ity which may take place in this Department,
shall be followed BY the immediate execution OF
the rebels Of the highest rank IN my possession,
man for man. These executions will certainly
take place for every one murdered, or sold into
slavery. In the month of August last you do
cared all those engaged In arming the negroes
to fight for their country to be felons, and d.
rected the immediate death Of oil snch that
should be captured. I have given you long
enough to reflect on your folly. now give
you notice that unless this order is Immediately.

every rebel officer and every rebel STAKEHOLDER
