LAST WORDS OF GENERAL LYTLE.-This
glorious gentleman and soldier, "the mirror OF
chivalry," and the very idol of his friends, who
fell at the head OF his brigade at Chickamauga
as he often fell before in the battle front, but
this time, alas. never again to walk the earth
in all the pride of bis generous manhood, said
a few weeks before his death, iD the presence
Of his troops:
And then for you, soldiers-solders but
freemen and armed citizens of the Republic
it will be for you to remember the Roman
saying :-"Vel pace, rel beilo, clarum, feri
lieet; or, as old Milton has paraphrased it,
Peace has her victories no less renowned than
those of war"
Gen. Lytle further said:
at viii be for you to see that the powers Of
the government are restricted to their appro-
PIRATE channels, that each State has its full
and perfect rights uoder the constitution"
There is the ut;e-ance of true man, says
an Ohio paper, who has gwen up bis rich lie

with the outgiyings of John Brough-"The
States shall not hold slavery
Place it side by side with the ou;givings Of

Place it side by side with the declaration of
Thadeus Stevens The old Union? God

alton of Vice President Hamin, at the Coop

That is one way to look at the Ohio elec-

of Ohio occupied their old position of opposi.

Cox Wheat.

Mr.. Richard Jones, residing four miles
northwest OF Newark, has placed on our
table sample of wheat yielded by the re-
cent harvest. He gathered 270 bushels of
this wheat from field of nine acres, bein e
thirty bushels to the acre. The seed came
from Mr.. Stewart, OF Newton township,
who has been growing "WeevR Proof
Wheat" every year since Hon. S. S. Cox
procured and introduced it into this county
six years ago, when our farmers were suf-
fering so heavily from the ravages of that
insect. 1t will be remembered that the
Republicans, with characteristic dirtiness,
started the story that Mr.. Cox was trying
to gain favor with the people by sending
into the county parcels OF ordinary wheat
which he falsely represented to be a new
quality, proven to be "weevil proof" In
the spirit of derision, they called it " Cox
Wheat" but since it has been tested for
years, and become favorite with the farm
ers who have cultivated it, the Republicans
are hardly able to call to mind their dirty
attempt to injure Mr.. Cox by charging up
on him design to practice on his constitu-
ents an imposture that could have been con-
ceived only in the brain OF q modern shod-
dyite.-Neuark AduocGe,.

MONDAY MORNING, SEPT. r.
The Reason of the Cruelty to Our
Captive Soldiers.

Even the Administration papers are be-
ginning to open their eyes to the downright
duplicity of the War Department in the
matter of the exchange of prisoners. The
Springfield Republican gives the following
summary and Judgment of the case:
early in the present year Major Mulford
proposed on our part to exchange man for
man and officer for officer. The controversy
about negro prisoners was afterwards re-
newed by Gen. Butler, and the rebels made
no reply to this offer till the 10th of last
month, when Commissioner Ould signified
the acceptance of our offer. Major Mulford
sent his dispatch to Washington, and on the
last day OF the month informed Mr.. Ould
that he had received no reply from Wash
ington. Thereupon Mr.. Ould printed the
whole correspondence in the Richmond pa
pers, to show that the Confederate Govern
ment was not responsible for the failure to
renew exchanges.
'The letter of Gen. Butler to Mr.. Ould is
dated, In the field, August (no day., and
the purport of it is that the Government
will not exchange according to its own of
fer till the Confederates agree to exchange
black as well as white soldiers. There the
matter sticks. Gen. Butler argues forcibly
that the Government is under obligation to
protect all its soldiers, without regard to
recaptured slaves as property since we have
freed them and they are no longer proper
ty. But the fact remains that we might re-
cover all our white soldiers in rebel hands
by the proposed exchange, and yet hold
large balance as hostages for the colored
soldiers while their status is in controver-
sy. Gen. Butler wholly fails to make out
any necessity for leaving our white soldiers
to suffer and die in Southern prisons; it does
not help the case of the negroes one iota,
and we cannot find in his letter shadow of
reason why we should not exchange man
for man till we recover every one Of our
white soldiersfrOm the enemy. The honor
of the Government would not be at all
compromised by it, on Gen. Buffers show
ing, and we adjure the President to inter-
pose, and not allow this important matter
to be so cruelty mismanaged any longer"
1t will thus be seen that even this wretch
ed negro business offers no excuse for the
heartless conduct of the Administration to-
ward our unfortunate soldiers in the hands
of the rebels. 1t is clear that they do not
want an exchange of prisoners, for.when
their own offer was accepted they backed
out of it.
There can be only one motive, and that a
most villainous one, for this outrageous
cruelty to our captured soldiers. The Adj
ministration wants to keep them in South
ern prisons so as to be able to spread stories
of their sufferings about election time, and
thus help them in the canvass. They con-
denim our brothers and sons to cruel cap
tivity to make political capital of their
torments, and to keep up the enmity be-
tween the North and South. We defy any
one to give any other tenable explanation
of their conduct.-Ihe World.

paid Mr. Cox the following compliment
every word true:
Resolutions were then passed relative to
the organization of the Convention into the
respective committees, on credentials, Or
ganization, and resolutions, Mr.. Cox NOV
ing that, until they had first reported, the
rules of the last meeting should prevail.
Mr.. Cox at this time, and, indeed,
throughout the evening, could hardly rise
from his seat to speak without being greet
ed with tlattering compliment. He is
evidently popular favorite. His plucky,
decided, and self-contident manner, COM
mends itself to the lovers of public debate.
Mr.. Cox's reputation as dialectrician is
deserved, for few of the men in the last
Congress could bring to their aid such re-
serve of keen logic, ready wit, piercing sar-
casm and whitening denunciation, as lie.
