A Jolly Old President.

Mr.. Lincoln is uncommonly full of jokes
at the present time. Accept the following
illustration: Complaint was made to him
by Western Democratic Congressman a
few days ago that Colonel of one of the
cavalry regiments from the Congressman's
State had sent home eight hundred and
sixty votes, of which there were seven
hundred ard ninety for Lincoln, and the
balance of fifty for Mcclellan. ''Now, MIR.
Lincoln" complained the irate M. c., shat
regiment has not to-day in its ranks, ac-
cording to the COlonel's own official return,
one hundred and fifty men present for duty.
The fact is," continued the Congressman.
that the Colonel and Adjutant Just took
the old muster rolls of the regiment as 1t
left the State over two years ago, and re-
turned the votes of every man they saw
thereon just as it pleased themselves" The
complainant wound up with vigorous ap-
peal for justice against the offending Off
GERS. 'sMy dear sir,' replied the President,
rubbing his lean hands together and chuck
ling away down to the bottom of his boots,
sit would seem that these officers have
taken my words, there is nobody hurt.
somewhat too literally; but the matter OF
correction is not within my power. 1t is a
State affair, and, If corrected at all-for
which, let me confess, | see no present
necessity-the proper remedies must be ap-
piled by the State authorities. What pro-
pose is to conduct my own campaign in
my own way, and to let the friends OF Gen.
Mcclellan conduct theirs as they please"
The foregoing may not be the precise words,
but they are the substance of that inter-
view.-V dshtngton Cor. N. Y. Herald.

The ARMY of the Potomac.

The Army of the Potomac have evacuat-
ed Harrison's Landing without the loss of a
man or a dollars worth of property, and is
on its way to new fields of battle. We
trust that the military critics who so highly
eulogized General Beauregard for evacuat-
ing Corinth, and General johnson for
evacuating Manassas without being mo-
Tested by our armies, will render to Gen.
Mcclellan his due need of praise for having,
under circumstances of far greater difficult
ty, accomplished this last evacuation with
at least equal success.
Whether our troops ought ever to have
gone to place from which it required con-
summate generalship to extricate them
whether Gen. Mcclellan would not have
acted more wisely in turning back from
Yorktown as soon as he ascertained that
the civilian commanders at Washington
had upset his plans for the campaign on the
Peninsula, by depriving him Of the army
of 10000 men led by Gen. M'Dowell, are
questions which can safely be left open for
discussion when the war is over. 1t is easy
to understand the reasons which may have
induced Gen Mcclellan to perscvcre in his
expedition even against the dictates of his
Judgment. But this is no time to consider
them.

Upon the eming events of the year. rest the hopes
# the People and Government. We are in the midst
Of bloody and protracted civil war. Its duration
aud close depend upon wise: truer and more patri-
cPolicy than we have seen lunng the present Ad-
nnistration. We owe it to the mencry Of our Faith
and to the hspes Of our Children, h The future Of
cur Country, ana to the best Interest," OF mankind to
shange Policy which is drifting us farther and lar
her from the landmarks Of our patriotic sires.
THE STATESMAN will do all it can to aid in ring
ing about this change and hence. the Publishers in
vite support and encouragement from all those who
while wishing for good NEWSPAPER, also wish to
have sound Constitutional journal.
We publish paper in which we seek to give the
TRUTH. Our Commercial Reports, our Markets, our
Political and General News, are carefully freed from
the ensational character and We seek to make THE
STATESMAN Trustworthy in every particular.

Bloody ARRAY near st. Mary's.--
Rescue Ofa Prisoner from II Pro.
yOst NIarshaI's Guard.
from The Auglaize Democrat, Nov. IL

ltr0m Inc AuglalZe DetnOcrht, NOV. ll
Yesterday afternoon Robert Stewart, act
ing Deputy Provost Marshal for the arrest
of delinquent drafted men, arrested man
named Thompson, somewhere in the east
part of Mercer county, and while on his
way with his prisoner accompanied by two
soldiers as guards, all in spring wagon,
was attacked about half mile this side of
st. Mary's, on the plank road-the horse
shot-Stewart and the two soldiers wound
ed.
This outrage is deeply regretted by all
our citizens, and by none more than the
whole people of st. Mary's. The men en-
gagged in it were evidently acquaintances
of Thompson's, who had followed to rescue
him; and when the officers stopped at st.
Mary's, passed on and took position at the
first covert-which was skirt of forest
a little out of town. We have heard no
blame cast on anybody living at st. Mary's.
1t is said that Stewart is pompous and
cruel i'm the performance of his duties.-
That fact is probably beyond dispute, but it
furnishes not the slightest apology for such
remedies. All good citizens are now invok-
ing the restoration of order all over the land,
and proclaiming the supremacy of consti-
tutional law as it was administered before
this unholy war.
The statements first received of this affair
greatly exaggerated the facts. The trouble
is bad enough, it is true, but nobody was
dangerously hurt. The following are the
names of the wounded soldiers Aaron
Freeman, of Wilkesbarre, Luzern county,
Pa; Frank Page, of Mass, both belonging
to Co. ID, 9th Regt. Vet. Res. Corps. They
are good soldiers, and while here won the
esteem of all our citizens.

An Abolition Prea cher Indicted for
Illegal Voting.

During the present term of our Court, a
Methodist preacher, by the name of Bush,
was indicted for illegally voting in Mt. Ver-
non, at the late election. He halls, we be-
lieve, from Lorain county, and although
he had been but 81 days in this county, lie
swore in his vote, asserting, as we under
stand, that he had been in the county &c
days! Whether this was obliviousness OF
memory or deliberate perjury, is known to
the Searcher of hearts and the gentleman
himself. Its said that Mr.. Bush was very
much disinclined to vote on that day, hay
ing serious doubts as to his legal right to
do so, but he was waited upon by COM
mittee of Abolitionists, with carriage,
who insisted upon his voting, stating that
the result would be very close, that every
vote must be polled that could be obtained,
and that it "would be all right" &c. Now
if this illegal vote was procured through
the agency and efforts of this committee, in
opposition to the private convictions of Mr..
Bush, they are more guilty, in morals, If
not in law, than that gentleman.
But we presume the Union League will
grant absolution and remission of all their
sins.-M. Vernon Banner. cW
