by the community, went to Brown and
told him the consequence of such con-
duct, whercupon Brown leveled his gun
at HIM and shot him through the heart
Brown was arrested yesterday and lad

THE REJECT OF THE NEWS FROM
sAA SHERMAN. t&. S*S

From Aarpsr's wsekly..z~
There Is not a5man who did not feel
that Mcclellan chances were diminish
ed by the glad tidings from tlanta !
nor any one who does not know that if
Sherman had been defeated, the friends
Of the Chicago candidate would have
felt surcr Of his success. When people
eole,nnly resolve, as the, party which.
has nominated General Mcclellan did
at Chicago, that "the experiment Of
war" to maintain the Government and
restore the Union is "failure," how
can they be glad to hear Of d great and
vital victory which bellies their theory
No unconditional Union man could
have asked a more significant commen.
tary upon the true character Of the
Chicago movement: For suppose the
great Mcclellan ratification meeting had
taken place upon the Saturday the news
of Sherman's glorious victory was re-
ccivcd, how like soaking storm it
would have fallen upon an assembly
whose cardinal principal is "demand
that immediate efforts be made by a
cessation of hostilitics {" Sherman has
done more. in his capture Of Atlanta, for
cessation of hostllitics than Vallandig-
ham and his Convention could do in
twelve months of abuse Of the Admins
tration and Of the war.
1.-THE American people were craven
fthcy were so utterly Inundated and
Frustrated THAT they could hear of the
success Of our soldiers only with abject
regret ; if they were really willing to
surrender the victory of their Govern
ment and laws in the hour of its ap-
preaching triumph; if they truly
thought that the men who managed the
Convention at Chicago were more SIN
cerely patriotic than Grant and Sher-
man, than Farragut, Granger, and Sher-
iden, then we too could almost be sor-
~ for the glorious news; for it would
be clear that such people were not
worth saving, and that the life of every
devoted soldier who had fallen was
wasted in the cause of those who were
too contemplate to respect themselves.
