HARD CASE OF DEsERTIoN There is now
in prison at Camp Chase, o member of the
Goth Regiment New York Volunteer In.
f,ntry, who deserted from his regiment in
Page county, Virginia, and went over to the
enemy. BE was taken by them to Rich
mond and put in Libby prison, and subse
quently took the prescribed oath to the
Southern Confederacy and enlisted in Gil
more's rebel battery. In the fight at Har
risburg, Va, be was taken prisoner by the
Federal troops, and was sent to Camp
Chase. At the time it was not known thai
he was desrrter Sometime after he came
to Camp Chase, he and another rebe
prisoner were ordered to dig hole for the
purpose Ut planting flag staff, and whilst
engaged in this work one Of the provost
guard, who had been prisoner at Libby
recognized him, and charged him with be
ing deserter and taking thesoath &c. He
finally acknowledged the whole matter, wber
he was confined and will be tried by court

OoNFIscATIoN AND PLUNDRR.-The N. C.
correspondent of the World, shows that in
that State public property is often not tas
ken for public use, but for private plumber,
The following would seem to be reasonable
enough in principle, but it is not at all car
ried out in practice:
eff the property belongs to loyal per-
son, it ought not to b. interfered with at
all. lift is liable to con6scation, its use
and Its value belong to the government
certainly not to its subalterns. By the new
regulations of the Unitod States army the
soldier who sells sthe shirt which has been
issued to him by the quartermaster and the
man to whom he sells it, may be severely
punished; every thing 10 fact in which the
United States hold any right Of property is
contraband traffic, and cannot be applied
for private use. How much more forcitly
does this apply to the case Of property which
is devoted to the reimbursement of the ex.
penses of the war"
We do not vouch for the following, but
such statements need investigation:
BUFFERS TREATMENT OF MRS. CAMPBELL.
When Gen. Banks came here to take
command he found his predecessor in the
elegant dwelling of Mrs DR.. Campbell, on
st. Charles street. 1t is a noble mansion,
furnished sumptuousy with the choicest of
foreign material and redolent of LUXURY
Mrs. Campbell was residing in her house,
but military necessity" wanted the house
and he ordered her out of it, and took pos
session of it and all it contained. Soon
aftcrward the rich and valuable, plate of
Mrs. Campbell disappeared from the house;
and the robbers were vebemently pursued,
apprehended and punished. They were
charged with stealing Gen. Buffers plate;
yes, General Buffers plate.
Fortunately for Mrs. Campbell General
Banks arrived not long after her house had
been so summarily taken out of her posses
sion, and the hero who had captured it was
compelled to beat retreat. Mrs. Campbell
had done nothing to merit confscation;
was loyal, if not radical, and her house or
what had not in the meantime been abstract.
ed from it and destroyed, was returned to
| her.
The same letter says
1T is perfectly notorious both here and at
Hilton Head, at Pensacola, and elsewhere,
that whole cargoes of ''contiscated proper
ty" have been boxed up and sent away by
men connected with the army to their
Northern homes; that houses have been
completely stripped, and their contents
shipped to Boston and New York. Did not
chaplain from Hilton Head coolly tell
how he had been presented by some Capt.
or Colonel with piano taken from plant
ers' house."

Ma. EpIToR:-I am no secessionist. |
have always condemned the rebellion and
been sorry that there were any secession
lists among US. But have been taught
By Mr.. Jefferson that "error of opinion may
he tolerated" and that politics should not
degenerate into private animosity." As long
a these secessonists commit no overt act
ST treason and show no disposition to give
laid and comfort to the enemy, "they should
be allowed to enjoy their opinions in peace,
and a. long as they pay taxes to support
tho government it is bound to protect them
In person and property. 1t was for this
that governments were instituted. Will
eur chief magistrate please take this into
his serious consideration.
have neither time nor inclination to de
tail all the acts of violence that have been
committed by furloughed soldiers in our
village, suffice it to say they have wounded
and threatened the lives Of our peaceable
citizens and destroyed aud carried away
their property, and elected from a steam
boat, without any provocation, quiet, civil
u,en, going to Wheeling on their lawful
Business. And Why did they do so? 1t 10
60 COW down and crush out any opposition
b, the Reelection of Abraham Lincoln J!
There are many genuine Union men who
have been always opposed to the rebellion,
but who honestly believe that the only hope
for the restoration of the Union is in the
success of the Democratic party. These
are called rebels by those who are in real
ity rebels; they rebel against the laws Of
their country.
'Can such things be,
And overcome rs like q summer cloud
Without our special wondcr2"
Why this is the very way to make butter
outs. Intelligent men of all parties (ex
cept those swsyed by tho almighty Dol
tar," and fanatics) will rise in Indignation.
Was there ever community, in either an
sient or modern times that bore patiently
with sach injuries as we have received 2
And does it not appear incredible that there
has been no attempt either by the civil or
military authority to arrest these lawless
desperadoes. FAIR PLAY.
P. S-Since writing the above, in JUS
tee to Col. Lockwood, must say he was
absent; he has just returned aud says, bad
he been here he would have had the wretch
o punished.
