A Chicago Cattle Dealer in Diff.
Guilty.

From the Cleveland Leader, March a.
One OF our largest and most fashionable
hotels was, on Friday evening last, the
scene OF difficulty which ended in show
ing up completely the frailties of a wealthy
Chicago cattle-merchant, well known in
Cleveland. 1t seems that this gentleman,
in coming west from Baltimore on Friday,
had formed the acquaintance, while on the
train, of young and interesting widow,
whose black eyes and raven curls were
rendered all the more beautiful by her
sOmbre robes of woe. Our cattle-merchant
was quite struck with the charms of this
new dulcinea, and fattered himself that
he had made considerable progress in her
affections. His gallantry toward her in
creased, he lowered near her through all
the journey, and, as the train on which
they entered Cleveland arrived late in the
evening, lie was assiduous in seeing the
lady and her baggage carried safely 10 the
hotel aforesaid. He even assumed that
such familiarity and friendship existed te-
tween them as to justify his registering
their names on the hotel register as "Mr.
- and wife, Chicago"
But he had miscalculated the character
OF his companion. On his making his an.
pearance in the sleeping apartment as
signed them, to which the lady had al
ready retired, she angrily ordered him to
leave the room, and, on his refusing to
comply, descended at once to the parlor of
the house and sent for the landlord. to
whom she told her story. A policeman
was at once summoned, and the cattle
merchant was accommodated with lodg-
ings at the police station. On Saturday
morning, as the lady and landlord, with an
almost culpable generosity, declined to
prosecute any charges against him, be was
released from durance vile, and took the
next train tor Chicago, wiser, and, We
Ope, better man.

Tbs New York Tribune is one of the

invents to damage Gen. MCCLELLAN, dis,
gust ell honest men and createthe impression
that the cause that bases its hope of success
upon the use of such contemplate means
must be in very bad condition, indeed,
A few days ago the Tribune told the truth
by accident. 1t copied a few stirring and
patriotic sentences from McCLELLAN's
West Point grafton, and, gnorantly sup
posing them to be a part of one Of DoUGLAs'
speeches, commended them warmly and
highly approved their sentiment, pronounce
ing them the words Of statesman and a
patriot. The conclusive evidence of the
insincerity and partisan bigotry of the
Tribune which this incident affords, must

can use against MCCLELLAN, and to refute

ONE very striking evidence of the waning
popularity of the LINCOLN dynasty is to be
observed in the difficulty experienced in
bringing ont the people to attend Repub-
hcan meetings. LINcoLN's nomination,
which ofice-holders and paid scribblers
said was made by" "a spontaneous uprising
of the people," called forth no rejoicing,
no hearty enthusiasm, but, on the other
hand, seemed to produce feeling Of dis
couragement. which has been growing, and
spreading, and deepening to this day. The
Administration newspapers are laboring,
amid many difficulties, merely to hold their
own, and keep their party from complete
disintegration. Hundreds of able and infu'
entail men who supported LINCOLN as long
as their self>respect permitted them to do
so, are now exertng all their weight OF in
Auence for General MCCLELLAN. The tide
has fairly turned, and will bear the Demo
cratic ticket on to victory as surely as Mo-
yember will come. t

IT is singular but significant fact that
there is no luminosity of feeling between tue
nriyatea Of the two armies. They are some
times caught enjoying their own private
little truces on the picket lines. On sucn
occasions they exchange papers, make col
fee, trade coffee for tobacco, &C., IN the
most amicable manner. A most amusing
occurrence happened on one portion OF our
line. The sharpshooters on both sides mao
got miffed about something. and had been
shooting at each other all the morning.
One fellow finally rose up from behind his
shelter, making some kind of Free Mason
sign, and shouts out, "Halloo, Reb! we are
getting hungry; suppose we stop while
and take dinner?" Reb answers, "Well,
Yank, say we do, will you agree?" The
word was passed along the lines, and all
parties made their coffee, the Rebs drink
ing sham and tho Yanks real coffee. When
they were through Yank says, care you
ready over there2" "Yes." Swell, then
the truce is up, and we will 60 at it again.
And at it they went again. These Incl
dents are cited simply to show how much
easier it is for soldiers to come to an under
standing than it is for politicians.-Arms

Nh. LINCOLN was constitutionally elect
ed. The people should never forget that
But in the popular vote the majority
against him was more than million in the
whole Union, and nearly one hundred
thousand in the free States. Mr.. Lincoln
should never forget that There is a moral
lesson in that majority which he ought to
respect, and moral force which be ought
to fear. The same majority still exists,
and it should adnonish Mr.. Lincoln that
he can never consummate his fanatcal and
reasonable schemes.-New Hauen Register:

Every man who agrees with the following
sentiment, uttered on the floor of the con>
necticut House of Representatives, by Rev"
Mr.. Gilbert, an Abolition member, Jan. 10,
1864, will vote for Lincoln:
"For one, am not afraid to say, that 1
had rather lie down and die in my tracks
to-day, than see any restoration OF the Un'
ion as 1t was"
This Reverend gentleman supports Mr;
Lincoln, because he is opposed to the olo
Union and refuses to negotiate unless upon
the basis of "the abandonment of slavery"
and is, of course, opposed to General Nc
Olellan, who says that "the Union is the
one condition Of peace"
