rampant Americanism by a quotation
from the Book of Judges 1t is there told
as final effect of Israel's war with the
Phllistnes, that, "In those DAYS there
was no King in Israel, but every man did
that which was right in his own eyes,"

lions: yet the breaking out of this
puStule OF corrupt matter on the face of
our feverish nation-this one-man inso.
lence-is seen no more under the military
button than under the rags of the beggar.
Notwithstanding the prodigious multipli.
cation OF beggars, there is no longer any
humility in their behavior. Be II a sol.
der or an old woman,a child or a cripple,
the needed charity isinsolently demanded
-sulkilv or saucily-and the boon, if Civ.
en-, taken as right and without thanks
or, if refused, correspondingly resented.-
Nor can we contemplate with satisfaction
the change which we actually see in the
visage Of our young men, as made by war.
There is here and there a noblelOoking
fellow among them, it is true; but the
most OF the men, now met in Broadway
and the Bowery, (the hundreds of these
same heroes at home on leave are Sau.

in the twirling Of moustachc or the de.
flying Of an eye; but who that has occa.

stranger, now a-days, in any crowd of our
great city, can be pleased with the new

How MORTON WAS ELECTED. A gentle
man in New Haven, Connecticut writes
as follows to the4ndianapolis Sentinel:
Among the one hundred days men sta
toned at Indianapolis, are several mem
hers Of the present senior class Of Yale
College. who, last July, volunteered for
that period. y member of the class here
has lately received letter from one OF
them, in which he states that he person
ally voted, under different names, six
times, at the last election, and that one
member Of his company voted thirty four
times. These are plain facts, startling
and outrageous as they are, The voters
spoken Of are all natives and residents Of
New England, and had no more right to
cast single vote there than had.

LOYAL VuLAINs.-The Washin. ton
correspondent Of the Philadelphia Ledger,
writes as follows: g hear privately Of
the arrest Of some half dozen prominent
individuals in New Orleans, who are charg-

of cotton from the rebels, but also With
selling them contrabands who had come
within our lines. Among this party was
a settler from the Bay State, who had re-
Gently made New Orleans his home, with
the express purpose, as it appears, of ma
king little money out of the rebellion. !"
This settler from the Bay State" who
sold contrabands who had come within
our lines" is said to be a nephew of Gen
eral Butler, which accounts for the silence
of the New York Tribune and other Shod
dy organs about the infamous transaction.

every fall for this purpose. The matter
being explained to the people of Ogdens-

tiny. So ends the campaign Of Dix

We nave a report that would seem TO h

We nave a report that would seem 70 be
reliable that Gen. Kelley had second en-
counter with the rebels after their return
ON Tuesday to Cumberland, and that he
again repulsed them. We have nothing
official however. Some portion of the
rebel force were in his rear on Tuesday
and cut the Baltimore road and also the
tslegraphic wires.
1t seems to be leaking out that very
considerable rebel force occupy Martins
burg and vicinity, having its headquarters
ut Winchester, with Early in command.
Our regular dispatches mention force OF
80 900 as having crossed and recrossed the
Potomac. We cannot credit this, II is
hard to form reliable opinion as to the
situation either at Cumberland or Martins
burg.
