the Seventeenth Ohio and citizens Of Lancaster
proves TO have heen quite as serious a. the first
reports indicated. The circumstances are as fol-
lows
The soldiers were assembling in Lancaster. pre-
paratory 10 leaving for Camp Deunison. The con-
versatl0n turned on the wdr during which the
loyalty and disloyalty Of certain citizens pretty
freely ventilated. Al old man named See 8 keeper
Of a saloon, seated himself IT window where he
could hear the conversation, having previously
armed himself with revolver. About ten oeiock
in the evening, soldier by the name Of Little turn
ed to MS son and remarked; b" George. | under
stand you have become Cepperhead. The young
man resented this and turning sharply upon Little,
the latter thrust him aside with his fist whereupOa
old See drew his revolver and shot Little through
the heart. The soldiers Immediately collected
! around their fallen comrade, when old See again
fired his revolver INTO the crowd, the shot taking
effect in the hip Of young man named Aichaels
and who died on Sunday afternoon. The murderer
and son escaped.
The soldiers were much exasperated at the mur
der OF their comrades, and threatened TO burn the
town. Colonel Durbin Ward, their commanding
officer, although partially disabled by his wounded
arm, rushed IN among his infuriated men and plead
with and commanded them TO deSist from their pur
pose he succeeded partially IN his efforts but the
soldiers determined and did demolish the saloon
where the murders were committed. They then
scattered themselves in search OF old See and his
son, securing the town and vicinity.
About two O'Clock on Sunday morning they found
young See lurking on the outskirts OF the town,
and brought him into the Market house square
when they assaulted and beat him almost TO Jelly.
Colonel Ward again rushed into the crowd and res
cued See from the soldiers, and had him taken 10
the house of a surgeon, and stood guard over him
while his wounds were being dressed. In speech
TO the soldiers. Colonel Ward told them he was in
formed that persons of Boone county, an entire Y
Copperhead district, had armed themselves and
were coming into Lancaster ,where-upon the soldiers
rushed to the armory for guns, took possession Of
the Court House and barricaded it, but nothing
came of the rumor.
During Sunday through the judicious efforts of
Colonel Ward and Gene raj Ewing who at home,
matters became quieted down, and the soldiers
were sent off to Camp Harrison.

Significant of Rebel Rule.

The Richmond Enquirer, of the 18th
inst, contains an invective-voluble and
full of reiteration-against bill intro
duced into the Rebel Senate itself The
measure and the editorial are of more than
passing significance. The billproposes ''tc
make the term of Cabinet officers expire
with each Congress, and to require nomin-
ations to be made with every Congress-
The object and end 5f this bill is to give
to the senate the power of supervision the
Executive and compelling the subservience
of the President to the viii and wishes Of
the Senate.
JEFF. Davis organ fears that hostility to
the present Cabinet is leading the Senate
into the adoption of law that must prove
destructive Of fundamental principle Of
the Confederate Government, viz: the in
dependence Of its Coordinate branches
the Executive, the Legislative, and the
judiciary.
IF this law passes, it continues, all in
depencence of the Executive is gone he
becomes the mere creature Of the Senate
that body of twenty. four members becomes
the Government, any thirteen of whom
may dictate their creatures to the Presi-
dent--impose their policy upon the Gov
ernment, and execute their will through
the Cabinet"
1t pictures the Executive subordinated,
the power of the House of Representative
undermined, present obnoxious Cabinet
giving place to one dictated by the SEN
ate, that Cabinet becoming the merest
puppet of the Senate, set up to spy upon
the President, to thwart his views, and to
execute the orders of its real master. 1t
foreshadows the Government of an oligar-
chy of Senators and Venetian Council Of
Ten ga revolution in the midst of the
present war"
Such is the gist and purport of the In
9urer's article; it forcibly betrays what
no ridicule of Senator Foote can obscure,
that there are discomfort and irritation in
Rebel States, and that this bad feeling is
taking shape When armies lose conf
dence in their Generals, discomfort atcon-
tinuod illsuccess points by the presto those
in power, TRADE appears in the Senate and
plans for changing parts of the Govern
ment are mooted, the friends ofJeff Davis
may indeed prepare for dangerous revolu-
tlons.

COMMUNICATIONS.



MEssRs. EDIToRs:-As Congress has
extended the time for paying the s4o2,
and 1902, bounties to volunteers; and in
asmuch as other counties, and some Of the
townships in our county, are paying local
bounty, thereby filing their quota |
would earnestly requst sub-districts, not
having done so, to Immediately call meet
ings; council together, and see what can
be done towards securing their quota of
volunteers; thereby avoiding the impending
draft.
The following is late order from the
Provost Marshal General:
Recruits will be credited to the To-
calities from which they receive local
bounties, provided the Muster-in Rolls
show them enlisted and mustered in as of
said locality. The Muster-in Roll must
show the facts of the case, and will be the
evidence"
Veterans in service re-enlisting will
be credited to the localities to which the
re-enlistment and muster-in rolls show
them as belonging; therefore, until vete-
rams have been re-mustered, it cannot be
determined to what particular locality they
will be credited"
The evident intention of the above or
der is, that the recsit whether vete-
ran in service, or new recruitl may have
the benefit of choosing what locality he
may wish to be credited to. Hence, a
sub-district not paying local bounty, may
fail to avoid the draft; at the same time,
more than sufficient to I'll its quota may
volunteer from such sub-distriet. A
word to the wise &c"
