Con. oox,s Letter.

Some gontlemcn of Oberlin, Ohio,
have addressed letter to Gen, Cox
asking him 10 define his position on
como matters not contained in the
platform or resolutions of the State
Convention which nominated him and
particularly as to his views Of negro
suffrage. Though under no especial
obligation to reply, he has seen fit to
do so in lengthy letter, which we
will lay before our readers next week
Suffice for tho present to say, that tho
letter contains not a single "crumb Of
comfort" for those radicals who dcs-
pito the action Of tho State convcn-
ton, still wish to make the Immediate
right OF negro suffrage an issue in this
campaign. The democracy who hoped
by declaring him TO bo in favor OF no
gro suffrage, to create disaffeCtion in
our ranks will also find their "occu-
patton gone :" Whoever asserts il
now must fabTicate tho whole thing
and that too in spite of a lengthy ar.
gumont from Gen, Cox against il.

We clip the following from the, spe,

dated July 3lst.: hdigs ,i''. Z
An atrocions case Sf brutality, Illus.
trative Of slaveholding 'barbarism, was
told byia crippled negro, who appear;

Lee for a time kept the Knoxville Ho-

he was at length held and treated as

Leo hired him out to the rebel Quar-
tcrmasters at Jonesboro. After re-
naming there ten months he attempt

but was caught aud taken back, when
this rebel Quartermaster sent him tc
Surgeon Welin, in charge of the rebe

to cut off his feet and hands to pre-
vent, as he said, his attempt to run
away again. The Doctor partially
complied, amputating both legs JUS

companies formed against all law, and
especially to resist the draft.
The eensummate -meanness Of the
following, from the Holmes County
Democrat, will be apparent to almost
every one:
SFhe N. q 3 were legisiated into ex,
isience for clcctioneering purposes
Every man Of sound mind and in
good condition must muster or pay
ES4--but he can't muster unless he is
controlled by abolition officers and
used atabolition meetings"
To call this a downright lie, is quito
as much as it deserves, but we may
add that it is tortured out of the oath
which the commissioned officers arc
required TO take, "tbat they have not
borne arms against the United States,
since they. have been citizens there
of--that they have not given aid
or encouragement to persons engaged
in armed hostility thcreto-that they
have not held Office under, or yielded
voluntary support to any pretended
authority within tho United States hos.
tile thereto--and that they will bear
true allegiance to tho Govcrhmet Of
the United States"
Now, with no high estimate of the
loyal sentiment of.the Democratic par,
Ify, we believe there are plenty of Dem
ocrats who can take this oath and serve
as officers under this law, and on theil
behalf, we resent the implied assertion
of the Farmer to the contrary.
We close with brief notice of thu
following bit Of moral ethics from tht
Eagle: "Thcrc is no law in Ohio i'm
prisonng for debt, therefore the mar
not having moro git.at able property
than the law allows him exempt from
execution, may, without the least stig
ma of dishonor attaching thereby, re
fuse TO pay this 81 annual commuta
tion which this detcstable law de
. mands." Now reader of the EdgL
who accepts this statement and VIII
realizes that he has no moro right Il
dcfaud his State than no has to dc
fraud his ncighbor, will havo no diff
entity in transferring the logic OF thi
assertion to all hs other transactions
II he is so fortunate as TO be indepe nd
emily poor, "he may without the leas
stigma Of dishonor alta ching thereby
refuse to pay" his neighbor any Sui

Moro Indian Troubles. .

Fort LARAMIE, July 27.--One thou
sand Indians OF different tribes, at,
tackled Plato Bridge Station, on the
telegraph road onTuosday. Tho gar.
rison numbered less than $50. Tho
fight lasted two days and resulted in
u heavy loss to the Indians. Loss on
our sido was Lieut.. Collins and ono
enlisted man of the 18th Ohio Caval-
~, twenty-five men Of the l1th Kan
sas killed, and nine wounded. The
Indians retreated west, tearing down
the telegraph poles and destroying the
wiro. A note was picked up on tho
battle field, written bya white prison,
er recently captured on tho South
Platte, which says tho Indians do not
want peace, but are lighting for all
time; that we have killed one of their
chiefs in fight, and they arc going
to destroy the telegraph, and that they
expect renforcements. The body OF
Lieut.. Collins was horribly mutilated;
