BADLY BEATEN.-The Democratic
party in Oregon, as the returns sh ow,
were badly beaten in the late election
We are notsurprised at the result. When
Democrats adopt a platform, as the Ore
gonians did, that may be described as
"neither fish, flesh nor fowl" simply to
gain the favor of, or to compromise with
a few secesh sympathisers, they desire to
be beaten. Bnt, even with their wishy-
washy platform, they might have still
kept their heads near the surface had
they, or any portion Of them, paid no
attention to the rantings Of such men as
Jimmy O'Meara and 10. Lane, and, in
stead of allowing them to take stun p as
spokesmen for the party, contributed
a sum and sent them off to bask in the
sunshine of their great light Vallaud

TAX ON MATCHES U nder the new
law each "block" or box Of matches sold
after the fret day of September next,
requires stamp in accordance with the
number of matches it contains; and the
stamp duty cannot be paid by placing
the appropriate amount of stamps upon
the whole package of "blocks" or boxes,
for the reason that every "block" OF
box sold must have stamp or stamps
upon it. Such is the decision of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

General Burnside.

Gen Burnside arrived in this city

spirits. 1t is not correct, as stated by
the telegraph, that he has been relieved.
The Court of Inquiry in relation to the
assault on Petersburg has not reported,
and has not examined any witnesses ex-

being the subordinate, preferred, as he
always does to sacrifice himself rath er
than to cmbarrass the army in the field
by any controversy. He rendered his
resignation, which Gen. Grant refused,
and also refused to relieve him. The
Court OF Inquiry was temporarily adj
journed on acc Junt of the necessary alb
sence of some Of its members Gen.
Grant then offered him twenty days leave
of absence, by virtue of which he is at
home We have no doubt that his testi-
mony before the Court of Inquiry will
acquit him Of all blame, and that he Will
soon be called to his old or to some new
command.

The Copperhead Flag.

We have Mt last in this country breed
of scoundrelsi claiming TO be the Demo
cratic party, who. dare not unfurl over
their heads their country flag. What
better proof would we have that they
know they are traitors. The reports OF
the Springfield peace Democratic Con
vention state that
The principal flags were white, with
notices of various kinds. Many of the
horses had small white flags fastened to
their head gear, and a large number Of
the crowed wore white rosettes and but
ternut badges"
Thank God, traitors love not the Stars
and Stripes. No sooner does party
become ripe for treason. than it hauls
down the old Flag of our Union, and
runs up its traitorous rag in opposition to
it. So did the rebels III 1860. At first
their flag was the white flag to indicate,
as Currie of Alabama expressed it, the
bloodless nature of the revolution they
had accomplished (under Buchanan adj
ministration. When they suspected
some fighting might after all result from
their peaceful secession, they adopted
a new deyice-the Palmetto flag, or the
rattlesnakc coiled around the palm-eX
pressive of the copperhead party clinging
to the South. At last they adopted Tie
'sstars and bars. The copperheads
have thrown off the mask-laid aside the
national emblem-and adopted the first
design of the rcbeis--the white flag
that which they used to represent peace
full secession, and which their Northern
friends now use to represent peaceful
disunion and falsehood more
bloody and deceptive even than peaceful
secession The New York peace riot

A Peace Speech.

j II Woodward, a young man, resi-
dent Of Indiana, and at one time Adju-
tant Of an Indiana regiment, was called
ont at a recent peace meeting, and re
sponded as follows:
GENTLEMEN
The great cry that have heard to day
has been peace, peace, peace. l tell you
that there is no man in the nation who
desires peace more that / do-a perna-
nent, lasting peace Cheers. And,
gentlemen, i will tell you how we can
get It. Fight this war out. Take every

nate every ID rebel, no matter where
yon find him. Kisses. Gentlemen. you

ers of Tennessee. l know was called

Sodom if ten righteous men could be
found there | have no doubt he would
have done it: and to-day, if You all

This individual, who has suddenly

IA the factotum of the reasonable con
spiracy in Indiana, known rs the ''Sons
of Liberty" spent most of his life in
Toledo, having left here some eight years
since We hear that he was aided in his
education, with the understanding that
he was to become an Episcopal minister,
but cannot say how true that is How
ever that may be, it is plain that such

When the Republican State Conven-
ton met at Columbus in the summer Of
1883, Dodd was an earnest and anxious
candidate for member of the Board of
Public Works, but failed to get the
nomination. Soon after that, his brother,
then State Auditor Of Indiana, employed

up his residence at Indianapolis.
