Buried alive What fearful import is
conveyed in those two words What
visions of horror do they conjure up, con-
stituting in anticipation at least, one Of
the most exquisite tortures imaginable !

horrible circumstances, conscious of the

Un1aVOrabIe News.

There comes confirmation Of the sad news
that our forces in Plymouth were oyerpow.
cred and the place, with all its stores and
munitions of war, captured by the enemy.
y few days ago the country was positive,
ly informed by dispatches which passed
through government inspection at Washing
ton, that Plymouth was so fortified as to be
mprcgnablc, though defended by small
force. Now we are informed that General
Vessels, commanding the post, several
weeks since, called for five thousand men,
stating in the most solemn manner that il
would be impossible to hold the place with
less There is trifling here with impor-
tant interests which demands rebuke
The enemy are reported moving on Wash
ington and Newbern, so that exciting intel
ligencc may be daily looked for.
The news from Gen. Banks command
is not what the people expected. 1t was
understood that after the second day fight
ing in Louisiana the Advantage was com
pletely ours, the rebels were thoroughly
crippled. On the contrary, the telegraph
ic advices now are that the enemy remain
ed on the ground after Saturday, $ fight
that Gen Banks retreated forty miles ano
is tortitying his present position.
1t is about time that we should begin tC
achieve some military successes, for tn,
popular confidence in tho existing man
agement has been shaken to the core.

The Louisiana Battles.

We have further particulars, by mail ant
telegraph, Of the late battle in Wostcrl
Louisiana The rebels loss on the 9th i,
stated at 1900, and the Federal loss at l.,
500. Great dissatisfaction is expressed at
the GcnoraIship Of BANKS, who proceeded
/ in his movements against the advice o.
Generals FRANKLIN, SMITH and RANSOM
| The whole Federal army has returned to
Grand lcOrc and Gen. SMITH $ command
has left that point for Nicksburg, under
orders from Gen. GRANT Three of Ad-
mlral Portcr's vessels arc aground above
Grand Ecorc, and four others have been
ordered out Of the river, in consequence of
of the falling water. Gen. STEELE has ar
rived in the vicinity of Shreveport, with lj, o.
600 men. The result Of the Red River ex-
pediton, it is stated, is difficult to deter
mine.

4" Nary split"

The different views expressed by the dem
ocratic press concerning Mr.. LoNG's speech
nave led aundry mlscegen newspapers to in
dulge hope that there may be split in the
democratic ranks They are only laying n
hattering JUNCTION to their souls that time
will speedily dissolve, There is no demo
crat who does not fully realize the necessity
OF "squelching' the misccgen party. There
are no democrats who propose to run an in
dependent candidate. Let the miscegens
attend to their own domestic affairs, with n
we!l-grounded fear that hatred of abolition
ism and scccssionism bind the democratic
party in indissoluble union.

The Capitol,

There is much complaining of bad air in
the Capitol at Washington, resulting from
inefficient ventilation. The death of OWEN
LovEJoY is attributed to this. When the
Capitol is infested by such foul-mouthed
abolition bloyiators, dwelling demagogues
and miserable party hacks, it is not to be
wondered chat foul air abounds. Perhaps
bad air is an instrument used by the Al
mighty to clean out that Augcan stable. -
We would not interfere with the instrumen,
talitics of the Almighty.

LINCOLN went to work to free four mil

of them he has enslaved thirty millions o
white people Great art thou, oh, LINCOLN!
Thou are the dispenser of many offices, the
glyer of 'hoddy contracts, the proprietor Of
ponderous taxation. Thou hast armies to
do thy bidding, pimps to apologize 70,
thee, and hireling5 to plead thy cause. -
Thou art he'll for the niger and particua

A MiScegen Republic.

Wendell Phillips Garrison, son of Lloyd
Garrison, addressed the Brooklyn, n Y,
Young Mems Christian association, last
week. He said he felt happy that the peo-
pie were ready to rcicome The dloody tern'ia-
alton of the 0M Constitution and old Unton
rdhoW regret, for both had been bm rot
ten concerns? We never had been Re
public, The present nation was soon to be
no NOSE and the new nation was to raised
upon the basis of the Declaration of indie
pendence. There was to be no difference
between whites and blacks. In the new
Government, for ,ohich contention ,oH
soon be called, there was to be no sexual ol
generic difference; but white and black side
by side, the sexes hand in hand. "
That is the class that has the control o
the Government, and is engineering thu

establish a new one, which shall recognize
in all its departments, the negro as the equa

Abolition Justice.

Abolition justice is queer affair, as may
be seen in the following Washington tele-
grams
Captain +, d. Stevens, I'd Wisconsin
Cavalry, has been dismissed from the ser
vice for abusing the President in disrespect-
ful language "
This is what men are dismissed for Here
is what they are restored for
Captain Edward Foster, 9lst Illinois
sentenced to be cashered for surrenderlns
seven companies of his command at Eliza
bethtown, KY, in 1862, has been restored
to his regiment by the President,
Captain FOSTER is evidently 'sound" ol

other party questions, hence his restora
ton.

:. Much Ado About Nothing"

The Akron Beacon publishes what it rep
rcsents to be an address which was prepared
by the peace Democrats, and rejected by
the recent Democratic State Convention. -
The Beacon prefaccs the said Address with
/ the following
on the evening of the late Democratic" Con,
vention ot Columbus, a citizen of our county,
ut one of the principal hotels of the city. The
gcntlemanly clerk was unable to furnish him
with room, but rendered him with bed In an
apartment in which some two or three other
persons would lodge, which was accepted. our
friend retired to bed at the usual hour, and haN-
ing soon fallen asleep, was at a late hour Of the
night aroused by the entrance and loud talk of
his fellow loigcrS, whom he soon discovcrd
were distinguished members of the "Democrat-
lc" party, and no less personancs Than Attorney
General Critchfeld, Jim Estill, of The Holmes
County Eo,p'er, aud AlCck Ramsey, the Copper
head nominee for School Commissioner,
The conversation of these gentlemen was of
course mainly in reference to The proceedings of
though they had not succeeded in getting exact
ly the platform which they desired they had
got the right sort of men on the ticket &c. In
diVesting themselves of their clothing, num-
Der of papers dropped from the pockets OF one of
the trio, upon the noor and on leaving the room
in the morning although it was suggested by
carefully gathered up, one OF them was accdcn-
tally left under the edge of our friends bed; r
Considering It fair trophy abandoned by the
enemy, il was duly confscated, and on his arri-
val at home placed at our disposal.
" Attorney General CRTcHFIELD, JIM
EsTlLL, Of the Holmes County Farmer,
and ALEcK RAMSEY" had no such conver-
sation as represented by the Beacon. The
fact is they had no conversation that even
Ting at all nor were 'the trio together at
"a respectable Hotel, " or any other place.
1t is also a fact that "Jim Estill' voted in
the Convention in opposition to the others.
VIM NJ CoRY, Esq, of Cincinnati, had,
on his individual responsibility, written an
Address, and secured the printing of a large
edition Of it, which was libcrally circulated
about the city. 1t was this address Tho
sharp man of the Bedcon got hold Of |
was not gotten up for the use of the Con
3 vention but it was an individual enterpris
of the authors, who is given to the issu

proclamations. The Beacon man must b.

Militia Called Out,

The Cows Of Illinois, Indiana, Wiscon-
sin, Iowa, and Ohio have offered to raise
"a, 600 troops for a service of one hundred
days; and the offer, it appears, has been
accepted, as Gov. BRoUGH has called ont
the National Guard of Ohio, and Governor
MoRroN has called for 10000 volunteers
from Indiana. These forces are to relieve
veteran regiments from post and garrison
duty.
