A REPUBLICAN GENTLEMAN, Just out OF
| Fort Lafayette, expressed his deep indig-
nation against the false charges which sent
| him to prison. We hope, with the New
York Express, that he and all his political
friends felt just as keenly the magnitude oi
the wrong when Others just as innocent as
himself were locked up on false afiidavits
| of personal enemies or on suspicion, and
mainly because they despised the despotism
and tyranny which imprisoned them, be-
cause they did not believe in the superior
| wisdom and patriotism of the President
the Secretary of State, and his two Secre
| taries of War. ~srg A gT.s41-~1

Three Of the New Philadelphia Lawyer

TAYLOR, Lieut.. Col; j.. III. Collier, Captain
and j. H. Barnhill, 8th corporal Compan,
A. These gentlemen exhibited great en-
ergy last fall in getting young men into tn
volunteer company, and by their own ex
amples induced many TO join. And we re
II joice to hear that they intend to 20 wit
and take care of the Tuscarawas boys, an
not desert them In the hour of trial.
INSANITY, says a "loyal" paper is on tn
increase among women, the cause being th
loss of relatives by the war. This is one {
the horrid results of war, and enough, on
would think, to make the most blood-thirs
ty pause and reflect.
