Gov. STONE VINDIcATED.-No can.
didate for office was ever more wantonly
sud persistly slandered than Governor
Stone has been during tho late canvass
He has been accused Of nearly all the
crimes in the catalogue. Were he one
tenth as guilty as his opponents made
him out to be, instead Of the executive
chair he ought to occupy cell at Fort
Madison. The fslsehoods Illuminated
against him were SO numerous and so
widely circulated through the State, it
is not strange that they diminished his
Majority in some localities. Many Of the
stories told were so absurd that they car.
ried with them their own sntidote. 9th
srs rad an apparent plausibility, and,
though totally unfeunded, were we'll cal
culated to deceive. These. with his bold
advocacy Of equal suffrage, will n.Ao hts
majority few hun drsd loss than that of
his associates on the State ticket. But
notwithstanding this, the Governor and
his friends may we'll be proud of the vim
dicstion he has received at the hands Of
the people; they can we'll afford to for.
get, or to remember only with the silent
contempt they deserve, the foul calum.
nies which have been heaped upon him
by his enemies. A gallant soldier, an
able and faithful executive. an spprecia
tive friend of the laboring masses from
which he sprung, an uufailing defender
of tho Union and freedom, fearless and
eloquent champion Of the rights Of the
poor and the oppressed-hc need not fear
to trust tho verdict of his contemporaries
or of history in relation to his pu y
acts. .-Burlington Hack Eye.

A GooD CREATURE OF GoD.-The
Rev. DR.. Guthrie says: II have heard
man with bottle of whiskey before
him have the impudence TO say Every
creature of God is good, and nothene to
be refused If it received with thankseiy-
ing; and he would persuade me that
what was made in the stilI>pot was a
creature of God. Ia one sense it Is so,
but in the same sense so is oil of vitriol,
so is prussic acid. Think of fellow
tossing off a glass of viioril, and excusing
himself by saying that is a creature of
God. He would not use many such crea-
lures, that's all I'll say. Whisky is good
in its own place. There is nothing Ike
whisky 10 this world for preserving a
man when he is dead. But It is one of
the worst things in the world for preserv-
ing man when he is living. II YOU
want 10 keep a dead man put him in
whisky; if you want 10 kill living
man put The whisky into him. 1t was a
c,pitaI thing for preserving the dead ad-
miral when they put him 10 a rum punch

! DAMAsCUs.-Our readers who have
perused the last two letters of our "Pil-
grim" on Damascus, will read with in
terest the following extract from letter
of a missionary of the American Board
to tne Christian Intelligencer, illustra-
ting Moslem fanaticism, as set forth by
our own correspondent:
A FRENCHMAN EATEN BY DOGS.
The dragoman of the French consul
at Damascus, having been long in office
and greatly respected by the foreign pop
lnIaiian it was ihanGbt very becoming tC
honor him at his burial. So last week
when he died, something of a display
was devised. The priests, as is usual in
other cities, although not in Damascus,
preceded the cortege, bearing the cross
and other insignia of office, as eros
lers and their banner. The friends fol-.
lowed the corpse, In passing through
the Mosem portion of the city, they
were attacked by Moslems, stoned and
pelted with mud, and the cross was
broken. The party, however, proceeded
to the grave, and inferred the body
But at nighttime the Moslem, repaired
to the grave, dug up the body, and after
cutting it into pieces, gave it to the dogs.
This is no triding insult. Perhaps
the collision was designed by the French,
however. They certainly will make the
most of it, and will show that a French
man cannot be insulted with impunity.-
1t will make new capital for them
Mosem zeal is fierce as Jehu there. No
consul dare raise his flag in the city, and
no Christian dare pass or meet Moslem
on his right side. Moslem delights TO
spit in a heretic's presence, and when
homage is required it dare not be reiuS-
ed. This fanaticism has been very
strong since the massacre, and of late /,
has greatly increased; and these facts
indicative of it, and mentioned above,
are only few of many which might be
enumerated.
The affair has caused great consterna-
ton i'll the country, and by this time is
under consideration in Paris. Since the
at Constantinople, last summer,
a great change has come over the Mos
lem race. We see the old spirit OF big
otry and persecution again at work, al
though smothered for the present.

Boston Corbett.

A New York Correspondent OF the
Boston Journal says Sargent Corbett
who shot Booth, is well known in this city.
| He was a constant attendant to the Fulton
Stree. Meeting, aud greatly annoyed il
by what was considered his lanaicism.-
He took part frequently, and in his
prayers was in the habit of adding "er''
to all his words, as 20, Lord-er, hear.er
our prayer-er." When anything pleas
ed him he would shout, "Amen," GLORY
be TO God, in sharp sbrill voice, TO the
great horror of some in the meeting. All
remnnstranoe vas in vain. and he Shouts
ed TO the very last. He enlisted in the
18th regiment, and made conscience his
guide there. He was perpeually in hot
water because he would follow the order
Of bis conscience rather than the military
order. He prayed in the corner of his
tent regularly night and morning nor
could the taunts or jeers of bis associates
turn him aside. | have seen him often
in the guardhouse with his knapsack full
of bricks as punishment, with his tesla
ment in his hand, lifting up his voice
against swearing, preaching temperance,
and calling upon his wild companions to
seek the Lord" One day at dress
parade in Franklin Square, Butteffeld
cursed and damned the regiment for
something he did not like. Corbett
stepped out of the rarks aud reproved
the Colonel for breaking Gods law
He was of course put under arrest. He
made up bis mind that the time for which
he enlisted expired at twelve o'clock at
night on certain day. lie gave notice
that he should 20 home when his time
was out. He was put on picket duty,
and as the hour Of midnight was sounded
he laid his gun down on the line and
marched off. He was tried by court
martial and was sentenced to be shot
The order was not executed, but be was
drummed out of the regiment. Moth
ing daunted he enlisted again. lie was
in a detachment of the New York six
teenth who were hemmed in by Mnshy
near Culpepper. All surrendered ex-
cept Corbett. He stood out mantully
with his revolver and breech- loading
rifle. He killed seven men before he
surrendered. He brought his man down
every time he fired, and as each rebel
fell he shouted: "Amen! Glory be to
God" Just as he used to at Fulton street
Meeting. Mosby liked his pluck, and
ordered his men not to shoot him. He
was a prisoner at Andersonvile. lie
now passes down to history, immortal
zed as the avenger of the President.

oath that every other Southern man has subscribed
to. Yes, says the Vicksburg Herald, the grand
old man. in rct;.ing to the mountains of his native

life is to be spent in training the minds of her
sons for the future welfare of the State, has re-
