THE NEW TACK,

The Copperhead party with all its help
lessness of factions and want of principles, is
possessed of mixture of shrewdness. 1t
excels in knowing how to appeal to preju-
dice. Just now, in despair of any true affir-
native ground TO plant its feet upon, 1t turns
instinctively to Its old resource-it makes a
dead onset upon the Union cause by trying
to stir up the old bias against the blacks, un-
der the newly found term Of ''miscegena-
ton. " Years ago it was 'amalgamation ;"
but new words create a new interest in old
things; they import some new discovery, or
new turn to an old question; and you can
always get few converts by a skillful use of
newly found terms.
Ii now they can make set Of green gulls
believe that ali distinction of color is being
obliterated, and a general mixing UP of black
and white is inaugurated, as a consequence
of setting free the, slaves-that intermar-
Tiages are to be the order of the day-why,
the said gulls can perhaps be caught. So
all the newspapers, of a coppery cast, are
reveling in 'miscegenation. 1t is subject
which they appear to understand
tastes and instincts seem to run in that way
and to read their efusions one would al
most think that this is 'miscegenating
world, and perhaps that portion of it inhab-
tied by copperhead editors is, for all that
the balance Of it knows
To give color TO all this fuss and stir, some
ammunition must be found-some show of
facts or pSeado-fa facts-for democratic facts
are largely ofthe pseudo kind; and so some
liar has set afoat the story about the female
teachers In South Carolina. OF course, it
was all warp and woof, lie-a lie up and a
lie down lie longitudinally and latitudi-
naliy. But what of that ? 1t suits the
copperheads just as well ; and their editors,
being expert in that sort of argument
will be at no loss how to use it promptly
The thing might succeed better if it were
new But it is an old and exceedingly bad
smelling affair. 1t was turned over and o.
yer in the last Presidential canvass and all
honest and decent people heard quite e.
nough of it then. The people understood
it to be all lie SO far as any assertion of
fact is made and that it is only a vagary
ola very poor and polluted imagination, so
far as it is a fancy. Much JOY to the copper
heads with 'miscegenation

CIRCULAR,

Questions Respecting the Education Of IN
digeat Children made Orphans By the acar,
to be onS,oered by Secretaries of School
Boards
The Governor, in his annual message, ur-
ges upon the Legislature the claims of the
poor orphans of our soldiers, who have given
or shall give their lives to this crisis, and
expresses the opinion, that their main
| tainance and education should be provided
for by the State" OF the justice of this
claim no one for an instant can doubt. The
first step toward carrying out this humane
suggestion of his Excellency, is TO ascertain
the number of such children in the State.
This can best be accomplished by the of
fcers of the school boards, in the several
counties and cities 1t will be an act of be-
nevoence that will result in good to those
who have been made widows and orphans
by the war. You are, therefore, requested
to forward to this Department, answers to
the following questions viz:
lst. What is the nunberof INDECENT chill
dren in your district, whose fathers have
been killed, or have died in the military or
naval service of the United States
I'd. Are there any institutions of learning
in your county, that will undertake TO pro-
vide for the maintenance and education ola
number of said orphans, if security be given
that al reasonable expenses shall be paid
by the State
Sd. If there are any such schools, how
many children will each take?
1t is highly important that this circular,
with the questions answered, be returned
by the fifteenth of April if possible. This
Department cannot too strongly urge upon
the officers herein addressed, the necessity OF
prompt action in this matter. They may
thereby bring JOY to many sorrow striken,

A Youths History Of the Rebelliop,

--~SNNJ ~ VIZ -sS@SA-AOA-'
We are glad to see that Rev. William
NJ. Thayer, author of Pioneer Boy and
other popular works, is engaged upon a His
tory of the Rebellion for the young, and that
Messrs. Walker, Wise, & Co, of Boston,
viii issue the first volume about the first of
April. The impo rtance of such work can
not be over-estimated The young ought
to understand the nature and history of this
struggle, as ameans Of inspiring their hearts
with patriotism, and attaching them with
all the ardor of youth to free institutions
There are lessons for them in this war that
can be derived from no other source, and we
rejoice that they are going to appear in per-
manent shapes All intelligent parents
will desire to have their children instruct
ed on subjects that they may not lose the
lesson of the hour The value of this
History will not be confined TO the young.
Many families cannot afford to purchase
either of the histories of the Rebellion
written ayowedly for adults, the cheap
est of which will cost seven or eight dol
lars. As this work of Mr.. Thayer's
when completed, win not probably cost half
that, and yet viii contain the substance of
the larger works, families who cannot afford
the larger works (lnade large by the intro
duction OF public documents, long speeches,
&C., that few desire to read) will find this
valuable history for their use, whether they
have children or not Condensation-the

The Plot DeYelnning.

1t is becoming more manifest, daily, that
the so-calied Fremont movement" isin the
interest of the Copperhead Democracy. One
proof of this is just furnished by the fact
that the Cincinnati FoLtsf-eund, the only
German Copperhead paper published in
that city, has placed the name Of Fremont
at its head, as an independent candidate for
President, accompanied by the following
comment:
General Mcclellan was our first choice
We were determined TO exercise the infiu-
ence Of our paper in favor of General Bic.
Clellan, but III order to beat Abraham Lin
coin, Mcclellan Is not strong enough IN the
West. Influential leaders of the Demo
cratic party argue that if Fremont shall
stand up against Lincoln, we shall perhaps,
be able, cutting through between both, to
effect the election of Democrat ofour col
er, who willrecognize the South Abraham
Lincoln must be beaten at all hazards. This
Is the leading thought to the step we have
taken to-day
The Republican Germans Of the South
West and elsewhere, discovering the geau-
me motive which propels this Fremont
movement, are rapidly abandoning it and
expressing determination to support the
nominee of the Union National Convention.
We hope that Gen Fremont has nothing to
do with this movement, and that he will
admonish his German friends, throughout
the country, against the designs of the orr
ginators and fomentors of this plot to secure
by dissentions and divisions in the Union
ranks, the election Of the Copperhead can
didate to the Presidency next fall

Copperhead Rebellion in Illinois.

A special dispatch from Charleston, Cole
county, Illinois. TO the st. Louis DeBa0crdt
says the Copperheads came into that town
to attend court, on Monday the 2Sth March,
with guns concealed In wagons and armed
with pistols. Some soldiers in the court
house yard were drawn into the affray and
a general fight instantly occurred. The coun-
ty sheriff sprang from the judge stand and
commenced firing pistol at the Union men.
Major York, surgeon OF the 54th, was one
of the first victims. The Union men be-
ing outnumbered at the court house, ran to
the houses and stores for arms and were
fired upon from the windows and ten or
twelve wounded. Col. Mitchell, of the 54th
regiment was wounded badly Oliver Saler.
James Goodrich, William Hart and j. c.
Jetfreys killed. Several soldiers belonging
TO the 54th were wounded severely The
54th regiment arrived In the afternoon. and
formed on the square. Nelson Wells, the
man who fired the first shot, was instantly
killed. John Cooper, a prisoner. was shot
while trying to escape. Col. Brooks, with
squad of men, went in pursuit of gang of
Copperheads about seven miles distant
Captain Williams has some twenty promi-
nent secesh implicated III the affair. under
guard at the Court House. Col Mitchell
had a conference with Hon O. B. Ficklin
and Judge Constable, who seemed very anx-
ious that steps should be taken to prevent a
further outbreak.
Later advices state that the rebels 800
strong, are encamped near Mattoon, and that
they are receiving accessions from the neigh
boring counties. Troops have been sent on
from indianapolis and other places, and

The Ferry Boy and the Fiuanoier

Is the title OF new work announced by
Messrs. Walker, Wise, & Co, of Boston.
to form one oftheir popular series including
the Pioneer Boy and the Farmer Bow. 3
1t Is narrative Of the boy-life of the en-
ment Secretary Of the Treasury, Hon. $. p.
Chase, whose prominence among the candi-
dates for the next Presidency, as well as
his distinguished services in his important De
partment, renders his biography of interest of
tens of thousands ofreaders We are assured
that the main facts in the sketch are entire
ly authentic. The author is a wellknown
literary man Of wide reputation, author of
the article, A First Trip to Washington, -
in the Atlantic Monthly of April Among
the numberless books nowadays published
tor the young, none are at once so fascina-
ting and so useful as the class to which the
forthcoming volume belongs books which,
while presenting truthful incidents in the
early experience ofdistinguished public men,
exhibit how, by adherence to certain fixed
principles Of action, by honest industry, and
conscientious discharge ofthe smallest duties,
they have risen, often from the humblest
stations TO eminence; and from obscurity,
have come to possess the respect and admi-
ration OF whole nation. Such books can
not be too widely disseminated. No town
or village in the loyal States but can employ
the services of one agent, at least, in its cir
culatlOn. The volume in question viii be
ready about the first Of April, and sell, we
