More SfraNS.

At a charter election held at Itch
field, Montgomery county, Ill, last
week the whole Union ticket was elect
ed by a decided majority. Litchfeld
was formerly one of the strongest Demo
cratic towns in the State.
The city election in Bangor, Ne, on
the l4th instant, resulted in the unani-
nous choice of Mr.. Honesdale for
Mayor, and Samuel D Humphrey for
Police Judge, and the election of all
the Union candidates for Alderman,
Councilman, and ward officers without
opposition.
But two towns in New York are
known to have gone against the Sol
dier's Voting Amendments-Co
and Trusten, Sullivan county, (Niven' 5
Disrict) Their behaviour Is not at all
surprising, for they gave Seymour 5S7
votes against l43 for Wadsworth.

Arkansas the First to be Free.

The Missouri Democrat, commenting
IN the almost unanimous ratification
Of the free State Constitution of Ar
kansas, by about 10000 votes-nearly
one half the State counted in 1860,
says:
Thus is the free State line drawn upon
another side Of Missouri. She is now an
ISOLATED slave State. We should like to
know what her institution is worth to her
under existing circumstances.
Missouri ought to have been the first free
State. The battle has been fought upon her
ground. Hers should have been the honor
Of the victory. Unfortunately, however,
our conservative, gradual emancipation ele-
ment, in conjunction with the rebels among
MS, have retarded her movement freedom
ward, and enabled Arkansas to get ahead Of
her. We rejoice for Arkansas, and see in
her deliverance another indication that
MissOur's day Of emancipation draws nigh.
The election of Isaac Murphy, as Cover
nor of Arkansas, is much to be reJoiced
over. He is a true and radical man, who
has from the first, and through every form
Of peril, stood by the dag. There was an
attempt made at one time TO organize oppO-
sitiOn TO him on account Of his antI-slavery-
ism, but this proved a failure and he has
been virtually elected without opposition.
What is said of the opportunity which
Missouri has lost, might, with equal pro
propriety, be applied to Tennessee.
Though as nearly cleared Of rebels
since early in 1862, as Arkansas was up
to the late election, there has been a
systematic dallianee which has placed
it in a fair way to be last in the list of
regcnerated States

An Important Matter.
The Dispatch of yesterday has the
following item in its local columns:

The Dispatch Of yesterday has the
following item in its local columns:
A case of much interest was brought be-
fore Squire Robinson yesterday morning; it
was a suit instituted by Mr.. Henry Driver
against McClay & Co., for the recovery of
S25, the amount Of one months wages due
from the above firm to Mr.. Driver, for the
services of Albert, a negro man owned by
plaintiff and employed by defendants. The
negro had left his master, and was employed
by defendant without Mr.. Drivers consent;
and further, Mr.. Driver had notified McClay
A Co., that he would hold them responsible
for the value Of the negroes services. Judg-
ment for plaintiff for the full amount claimed.
There is no doubt but the contro-
yersy involved in the above case will
absorb the attention Of the people, to
a great extent, this summer, and per-
haps longer; and the result will be
paralyzing to the interests Of the State
of Tennessee. Men disposed to hire
negroes will not do so, for fear they will
be compelled to remunerate the master
as well as slave; and the latter will not
work for any one without pay
The only way to dispose Of that mat
ter, is to call a State convention, and
place Tennessee along side Of Arkansas;
that is make it free Without that,
industry viii languish. We hope, when
Governor Johnson gets through engi-
neering matters at Washington, he Will
give a little attention to the interests
Of the State.

prosDeelire SaIit.

There appears now no cha zee to ques-
ton the certainty of a split in the
Democratic party, at Chicago. Judging
from appearances, the unconditional
Peace men will have a majority Of the
delegates, and viii nominate Nallan-

or Garrett Davis, of Kentucky, or Bay

and this viii cause a secession Of the

In the meantime the war Democrats
who have refused, for a year or more,
all utilization with the rebel sympa-
thyzers, are to hold a National Con-
vention in Cincinnati, we believe in

CopDerhead Sentiments.

The SlIingsgrove (Pa.) Times gives
utterance 10 the following emphatic
sentiment:
We would see Old Abe hung by order Of
Jeff. Davis before we would urge any man
20 volunteer ia a war like this.
This is a refreshing sentiment, GER
tainly. it surprising that soldiers
thus insulted 10 mob a copperhead
paper Office occasionally? We don't
Justify such violence; it is wrong; but
we candidly ask who there is that would
aot be liable to commit an excess after
such an insult
The sentiment written above is gen
orally endorsed by the Copperhead fra
ternity. Commenting on it, the Stark
CO., (Ohio) Democrat says:
The above plain and truthful talk We
Commend to our friends, especially those
who have been induced to aid, by their
money and otherwise, the bounty and
schemes Of the Abolition leaders.
Who Will say, after this, that Copper
headism can be cured? Hereditary
,crofula is nothing in comparison.

RumOFed Expedition.

The Annapolis (A1d) Gazette says
We hear itrumored but on what autho-

er expedition of some twenty or
twenty-five thousand men, under
Gen. Burnside, Is shortly TO be organ

by the Gazette is correct, the expedition

and entirely destroyed, together with five other ad-
joining one-and-a-half story buildings occupied
respectively by John ]. Binford and T. F. Minor as
stables, IL. s. Robosson as carpenter shop, and
Henry Stinard, free negro, as snack and fruit-
store. These tenements were very old and being
the flames enveloped the whole block in blaze,
rendering it impossible for the freengines do any
good. The ground upon which they built, and
all OF the shanties, except the stable owned by Mr.
Minor, belonged to Mr.. James H. Grant.
At one time the large four-story brick building,
owned by John ]. Binford, and occupied in part by
the Sentinel newspaper, was in great danger; but
the nreinen directed their streams upon it, and pre-
vented 1t from sustaining any other damage than
the loss of the rear window-slshes frames and
glasses.
Albert Brooks lost one fine horse six pigs, wa
gon four double sets Of carriage harness. and about
two thousand weight Vt hay; Henry Stanard lost
about fifteen hundred dollars worth OF melons,

and four hundred dollars in money; Mr.. Minor lost
about twenty-five hundred weight of hay; Mr.. Bin.
