The aggregate poll Of tho State. at her most
recent elections, was as follows:

A great many soldiers last year came home to
vote, nearly all OF whom voted for Curtin. They
now vote in the field, and it is claimed that a
majority will there vote for Mcclellan! We
do not believe it,: but the result will show.
The rival candidates for Congress, with the
vote of their respective districts in 1897 ore a

ONO was formerly preponderantly a Wing
State, and has been usually Republican since
the formation of that party in 1854. In 1862
she went wrong, choosing fourteen Democrats
to fee Republicans to Congress, by an aggre'
gate majority of 6,7l7. Last year, she went
heavily against the "Peace" party, but more
especially against yallandgham, their candidate
for Goyernor-6l, y20 on the Home and 30, La
on the absent Soldiers vote--total l0l ,099. II
is not likely that so large majority will soor
again be given by her for any party. Her az
grecate vote at the recent elections has been a'

CoPPERHEAD COMPLAINTs-TH

| COPPERHEAD COMPLAlNIS-lHE HEN
AND Now.-Scarce Copperhead paper falls
under our observation, bat we note in it some
complaint about somebody or something. 1t
really seems to be constitutional for the copper
heads-alias, anti administration democrats,
| to complain. If they have no real grievance,
| they will make one If nobody has struck
Them they will imagine somebody is about to
strike. If Mr.. Lincoln does anything, they
find fault, and if he does not do anything they
find fault with him. They complain of confis-
| cation, emancipation, and, strangest of all, of
''miscegenaton."
The poor fellews-with the constitutional all
ment have great deal to say about the
freedom Of tie press. They complain that
their rights have been invaded-that the free
dom OF the press has been restrained They
hare not bten privileged to blurt out treason
to their hearts content Poor souls!
Having very short memories, these copper
head complainants have forgotten all about
the past. They do not remember how they
once favored mob violence" in the destruc-
ton OF the anti slavery presses. They have
forgotten how they murdered Elijah p. Love
JOY, at Alton, Ill, in 1887! 1t has never oc-
Cured to them that they destroyed Mr.. Love
joys press, and killed him, because he insis-
ted upon the enjoyment Of his legitimate rights
as losdl cltHeh! NO, NO--Luey nave no rec
objection Of that event. Nor have they the
slightesc idea that they were once in the habit
of ridng the mails-taking therefrom and de-
stroying respectable journals, at the bidding
of the slave power! They plead innocent, to
be sure, bat this is often the rogue's plea.
We would suggest to these sore heads, that
while they complain of the now, it would be
perhaps profitable to remember the Men.-
The truth is, they have sown to the wind,
and now they are reaping the whirlwind-
They are being rewarded according to their
deeds.-JanesuUe Gazette

A REMARKABLE NIsIoN.-A physi-
clan, resident in the Isle of Wight, had bus.
ness at Southampton. He stayed at one of
those hotel for which the town Of mail steam
ers is famous, and after dinner he was look
ing over his war papers while he slipped his
port. He was aroused from his foolscap and
red tape by the opening a door: his wife
(whom he had let at home in the Isle of
WiSht) entered, gazed at him steadfastly, and
passed out through the opposite door. He
naturally thought that it was an hallucination
and resumed his reading with wondering
smile at his own weakness But within quar-
ter OF an hour the very same thing occurred
again; and there was on the countenance of
the specter an imploring look which terrified
him. He at once resolved to return home /;
with some difficulty he got boatman to car
ry him across; and when he reached his house,
he was struck by the ghastly and alarmed look
Of his maid servant, who opened the door
The woman was SO frightened by his unexpec-
ted return, that she spontaneously confessed
her intention to murder her mistress: and her
confession was confirmed by the fact that she
had concealed knife under her pillow This
IS a very perplexing case for those who think
spectral phenomena can be phiiosophicallye ex-
planned. Here you have the phantom of a li7-
ing person projected entirely without that per-
sons conciousness Let it be assumed that
person IN extreme peril can, by intense vo-
lltion, act on the nervous system of the uni
verse, SO as to influence his nearest friend :;
but here the person whose likeness appeared
was entirely devoid OF apprehension, while
the servant, who alone knew what was likely
to happen, would naturally exert no volition
towards revealing it.-Dublin University Mag

Hon. w. u. McISDoE-The La
Crosse Republican,, alluding to the opinion OF
an exchange that the voters OF the 9th dis
trict, would desire the return to Congress OF
their present representative Aclndoe, says:
'Gen. McIndoe will be renominated by ac-
clamation. He is no splurger; but is an at
tentive industrious and efficient Representa-
tive in Congress. He has already acquired a
fine reputation among the public men Of the
country for his prudence in counsel, and the
frmness, integrity and ability with which he
executes his purposes"
Gen McIndoe, a short time since, spent q
week in the State on imperative private busi-
ness. lie paired off, however, with an un-
qualified democrat on political questions dur
ing his absence, and secured the postpone
ment Of local matters until his return He
was at his post before the expiration of his
furough. Our observation has been that Gen
McIndoa has been most faithful to his duties,
and We presume the Rela,btt"an truly repre-,
sents the feeling of his censtituents.-llk

G8 The Chicago Post, comment
ing on the Pope's assured sympathy with JEFF
ferson Davis, because he wrote q letter ex,
horting his bishops to pray for peace, says
"Wen, letter from Gen. Rufus King, the
American Minister at Rome, has just been re
ceived, in which the Minister states that the
Pope and his Prime Minister, Cardinal An
tonnelli, hare joined nth the A,nsricans II
Ro,ne IN sending contributions to the g1,eat SAM
tGry Far, just opened in New York. This
Fair is given in the interest and for the bene
fit of the soldiers engaged in putting down
jeff. Davis and his rebels by the sword Tc
this object the Pope and his Prime Ministe,
have given direct and practical aid in send
ing contributions to the Fair We suppose
now that JEFF Davis and his sympathzers in
stead of speaking of the Pope as Copper
head will call him an 'Abohtionist'

Artemus Wards Adventure.

| The following is too good to be lost. For
the sake Of the good reputation of our town,
we wish to state that Claretta Rosetta Belief
ia, the tender parieqt of Lincoln Burnside
Mcclellan Beazor, is not resident Of Grand
Rapids:
[ must relate a little incident which hap
pened to your humble servant on his return
home from the wars
| 1 was walking along the street. lookin so
gallant and gay in my brass kote and bloc bot
tons, and other military harness. when an ex-
cited female rushed out of house, and throw
| ed her pump handles aroun' my neck-which
part didn't mind much, as they were round
ones-and exclaimed:
'Doo behold the once again"
| '4ou doo-an | think you are holding me
too fastly,' sez [, trying to release the exeen-
trick femaifs arms
| 80, hev you cum back-hev YOU cum back?'
she wildly cried, hangin' tighter to my neck
"Certainly Eve cum back" sez |, 'or else
wouldn't be here. But don't think know
YOU muchly."
| Not know me-your own Clarretta Roset.
ia Beletta-she who has not sot her eyes on
to you for moren two years?
Yes" she continued, placin' her hands on
to my shoulders, an lookin' up into my face
like dyin' hoss-fy-'yes, l see my own AL
tred's eyes, his nose, his ears, his"
Madam" sez |, 'excoose me, but allow me
to correct you. Eff l air not mistaken, these
earses an eyeses an noses belong to myself
individually an your Alfred never owned 'em
scarcely
Away with this farce" sez she. "Yoa
cannot deceive your Claretta; cum into the
house and see your little son Lincoln Burn
side Mcclellan Beazor"
| 1t was evident that the fsmail was mista-
ken that it was not me, but another man she
wanted.
How old is he?" sez l.
"Which?" SAYS she.
''Them little son, Lincoln Burnside McClel-
Ian an SO 4th."
Hes just six months-the little darling -
well, madam" sez l, ''ef little Lincoln
Mcclellan Burnside and so 4th, is only six
months old, an you havnt sot your eyes onto
your Alfred for moren two years, 1 think

your Alfred, but another man altogether"
| The woman shot into the house like forty,
an that was the last Of her, but pity her

HOPEFUL FOR SLAvEEY-TheR Rich
mond Wig IS very hopeful paper. Having
been charged with saying that Slavery has
stabbed itself to death" it Indignantly denies
the impeachment, and continues:
SO far from believing that slavery must die
we have long held the opinion that it is the
normal and only humane relation uIich laJoy
can sustain t0ward capital. When this war is
over, we shall urge that every Yankee who
ventures to put foot on Southern soil be made
slave for life, and wear an iron collar as IA
badge Of infcriority to the American.
We commend the above to the careful atten-
ton of those politicians who are anxious to
patch up peace with the erring. brethren,
leaving the door open for yankees" to
put foot on Southern soil apd and assume
the "iron collar" so cowardIy rendered to
them by their rebel friends If slavery is
not already dead, it is about time that it re-
ceived its death blow, together with the dev,
iliSh spirit it has engendered in the hearts oi
southern people. This war should never close
until the demon is destroyed, if this is speci-
men of its spirit

Grant appears to have been acting from the
beginning of his first campaign upon fixed
principle-to take away from the rebels what
ever they declare themselves least able to
spare. In January, 1862, it was rumored that
the rebel capital would presently be removed
to Nashville. Grant determined to be before
hand with Davis, moved upon the works of
Fort Donelson, and after handsomely captur-
ing the garrison, with General Buckner, took
possession of Nashville
Next Mr Davis announced to all the world
that the fate Of the Ccnfederacy depended up
Oh the fate of Nicksburg. Hereupon Grant
moved down and captured that place.
East Tennessee was next declared to be
absolutely necessary to the safety Of the reb-
el cause. The untiring Grant no sooner heard
this than he sent Sherman to Knoxville to
drive off Longsueet, ,and leisurely drove Bragg
away from Chattanooga.
II is now Mr., Dayiss turn; will he kindly
mention another point the possession of which
is necessary to his peace Of mind and to the
success OF his plot against the Union? Gen.
Grant waits.
