Of cavalry, numbering 1900, on the Rock

all the citizens living in that vicinity, and all
concur in saying that the rebels had 10000
men and forty pieces Of artillery, and that
their intention was to attack Washington

The riot at Greencastle, Ind, on Wednes-
day of last week, during the copperhead con-
vention, commenced by one Of the followers
Of VOORHEES, shouting for JEFF Davis. A
soldier Of the 42d Indiana knocked him
down on the spot. Lieut.. Cooper of the
43d, who backed up the soldier, was set up
on by several hundred copperheads, who
shouted, Kill the id soldier-hang him.
He defended himself with his pistol, and
beat off the whole pack till he managed to
escape. The crowd gathered about the house
where he entered, but were kept at bay by a
Miss Wallis, who stood before the door with
saber, and beat of the cowardly traitors
with the pluck of veteran. She wounded
two of them, and narrowly missed running
Judge Hanna, copperhead supreme judge,
through the body. The political contest in
Indiana bids fair to he very exciting, and the
copperheads threaten that this row is only q
beginning Of the fighting that will take place

As this was the substance used by the
incendisries in their Internal attempts to
burn this city, few words in regard To it
will be in place. Some of the properties
of phosphorus are generally known, but
not all. This substance is one Of the ele-
mentary bodies, and is an essential ingre-
dent in many tangible and intangible sub
stances. Pure PHOSPHORUS is q semi trans
parent, nearly colorless substance, flexible,
and so soft that it can be cut with knife.
and then exhibits a waxy luster. It. is
tastelesS, but exposed to the air, It enits an
odor like that of garlic. Both this vspor
and the phosphorus proper are LUMINOUS
in the dark, as every one knows who has
handled match in dark room. 1t melts
at Ills degrees, and if benesth an aka
line liquid may, if undisturbed, remain
liquid when cooled. It takes fire IN 6
warm atmosphere, and is consequently
most safely kept under water, in which
liquid it is insoluble. This is the manner
in which it is generally kept in drug stores.
Even at ordinary Temperatures, phospbo-
rus slowly and insensibly melts and disap-
pears Common phosphorus is prepared
from eslcined bones-those of sheep fur
nishing the largest proportion, 1t burns
with dazzling brillisney, and when brought
in contact with human Aesh, the wounds
1t causes are extraordinarily severe.-Nslo

/ Foreign view OF the American War.
A Berlin correspondent of tIc London
Star gives in s recent number of that pa.
per an interesting review of the opinions
OF the leading daily papers of Germany '
| respecting our war. He divides the Ger
man papers into two classes, official and
reactlonsry on the one hand, and indepen-
dent on the other. The papers of the sec
| ond class, almost all belonging to one or
the other section Of the Liberal party, are
nearly unanimous in their sympathy with
the policy Of the Governments Of the Uni
ted States. The only notable exception is
the Rot7iSehe Zsittng, the leading psper
In northwestern Germany, which on all
non-German questions follows the lead of
tue London Times. In Berlin, the Ma
tto7sat Zeltlt'ig, the chief organ of the Pro
gressive party in Germany and the VoLks-
Esit'7lgy cheap Democratic paper which
has the largest circulation of any German
daily, issuing a daily edition of over 42.OOo.
are the champions Of our cause; so are six
other papers which are enumerated -
Among the numerous other daily papers
which are on our side, only mention the
ALtgen'Si''s ZeitaeHg, of Augsburg, of all
German papers the best known outside of
Germany, the DeULsehe ALlgenaeins Zeitayau.
Of Leipzig, the ablest paper of Central
Germany, published by Mr.. Brookhaue.
the greatest German publisher; the lead
ing papers Of Wurtemberg, Baden, Ham
burg, Hanover, Frankfort, Bremen, Lu.
beck, Weimsr, etc. The .SehLesi0i5- HoL-
stem Zsitatng, an able organ of the two
duehies which have become 50 famous bv
the Dano-German war, is likewise among
the number. All the papers above refer
red to are daily, and most cf them issue
both morning and evening editions.
The rebea In Europe are deeply sensi-
pie oi the unanimous opposition of all the
leaders and organs Of the Liberal parties
OF Europe to their schemes. At home.
where they have to some extent succeeded
IN establishing pro-Slavery Society, thew
can well afford to laugh at and denounce
public opinion and liberalism but in an
atmosphere where public opinion enforces
respect and homage TO the spirit of prog-i
ress and the spirit of universal freedom.
they become aware of their anomalous po-
sltlon In the nineteenth century, and, in
order to secnre hearing at all, they have
been compelled from the beginning of the
war to dissvow the distinctive doctrine Of
their Society, and to appeal TO public sym
pathY by representing their struggle as
one, not for the maintenance Of Slavery,
but solely for the establishment of theft
independence. But even this dishonest
diguise of their plans has hardly deceived
a single public man in Europe. Ali the
leaders of the Liberal parties have en-
phatieally declared their sympathy with
the emancipation policy of our Govern
rnent and their hope for the suppression
of the Rebellion.

General Sherman hiss with him, in bis
Georgia campaign, one of the best and
most reliable scouts" or guides" in the
Southwest-sn cid man, native Georgi-
ian, and wealthy planter and STAKEHOLDER
at that. It would not be proper, of course,
70 mention his usme, but he is well known
TO all who were in the habit of visiting
headquarters 9 year ago. When the war
broke out be denounced the Southern lead
ers, sndfn consequence of his Union sentI-
nents was compelled TO leave his home,
near Macon, between two dsys. His
neighbors missed him, and suspecting
rightly, that he had gone off to join the
Yankees, they followed him so closely that
he was obliged to hide in the mountains in
the northern part Of the State for several
weeks. They have since organized all
kinds OF raids for no other purpose than to
catch this one man.
After being in the North some time, he
volunteered his services TO General Buell.,
but that officer didn't need much southern
Hguidanc =" Next he received a position
as volunteer aid to General Rosecrans, to
whom he was of great service in the cam
paign terminating at Chattanooga. he
has been with General sherman since last
June. There is not highway or byway
in the interior of Georgia with which he
is unacqusinted, and scarcely town or
village in which ne is not known.
he used to say that with brigade Of
cavalry, he could find cotton and niggers
enough within a hundred miles Of Atlantis
70 liquidate lhe National debt. He is one
OF the rich men Of the South who have re-
msined faithful to the Union cause, when
they knew that to do so was to lose their
property, their homes and their comfort.
On his present trip he carries with him q
black list of those who took pleasure in
him four years ago. Hetbinks
be will make IT more than even with them
before be gets through.
