New-Hampshire.

The Union party of New-Hampshire
started the ball in the great national cam
paign of last year, and have now started 1t
again for the local elections the coming
spring. Their State Convention was held
at Concord last week, and was largely at
tended, and harmonious in action. The
Hon. Frederick Smyth, of Manchester,
was nominated for Governor, and Milan
W. Harris, of Dublin, for Railroad Com
missioner. The Hon. James w. Pattcr-
son, of Hanover, the present able repre-
sentative in Congress from the river dis
trict opposite Us, has been nominated for
reelection. We trust there is no doubt
OF the reelection of the entire Union tick
ct of the State, and especially so since
they have one so good. To do SO, how
ever, will require active work on the part
OF the Union party, for the so-called DEM
ocratic party of that State is much more
welded to slavery, and in sympathy with
the rebellion. than in almost any other
Safe, and some towns-Swanzey for To-
stance--have made a record which, at
future day, a future generation, at least,
will regret.
The tone of the resolutions of the State
Convention have the right ring, as they
always have heretofore, and as they es-
peciaIly did when they started the ball for
the reelection of Abraham Lincoln, one
year ago, which afterwards SO swept al
most the entire country. They declare
for the total extinction OF slavery, and, OF
course, in favor of the constitutional amend
ment a5olsbing it. Good! A glorious
success to the Union party in New Hamp-
shire

The Destruction of the Savannah
and Gulf Railroad.

"A Savannah letter, after giving particu-
lars of the Thorough destruction by forces
despatched by Gei Sherman, OF the Gulf
Railroad, from Savannah to Altamaha, a
distance of sixty niles, adds:
"The destruction Of this road will pre-
vent its use by tn, rebels for any subse-
quent attack from His direction upon the
forces which we may leave 10 the city. 1t
was ascertained hat fifty locomotives and
several hundred ears, comprising large
portion Of The rolling stock which had been
withdrawn flom btfore Sherman, had been
run down upon this road for safety. This
course was forced upon them by the partial
success of Gen. Fosters expedition up
Broad river,by which part of the Charles
ton and Savannah road was commanded
by his guns. As this Gulf road is not
completed from Thomas to Albany, dis
lance of sixty miles, for all practical pur-
poses the rebels are as much deprived of
their use as if we had destroyed them.
The amount of rolling stock, added TO
our capture of fifteen engines and two
hundred cars in the city, and the train
taken at Briar creek by our cavalry, makes
up an item Of much serious loss to the
rebels. Besides, this portion Of the road
has been used extensively by those engag-
ed in bloekade-running. A well construct
ed road led from point on the railroad
to the coast. This has been in constant
use. Although the different sounds on the
coast from the mouth of the Altamaha to
Savannah are watched by our fleet, still
the coast abounds with inlets, navigable to
vessels of light draft, and through these
great quantities Of foreign goods have found
their way into the Interior

Peace Rumors.

Il
There are many peace rumors aiioa1, anu
we suppose ii is true that the Hon. fran
els p. Blair, senior, has gone to Richmond
10 see on what terms peace can be had
we do not think it belongs TO the Union
side. IN this contest, to first approach those
who have for the past four years been Try
ing to destroy our government, but never
,he,.ss peace is SO priceless Jewell that
~ any good can come from such mission,
we would not stand on a mere matter OF
a,iou,,te. As the JEFF. Davis govern
mrnt have, themselves, very nearly 1t not
ouite abandoned slavery, in their despera-
ito T.. some proposition may possibly be
made which will not only strengthen the
Union cement of the North, but also build
Il, Q Union feeling in the rebellious States.
MIR. Blairs mission can hardly do more
than, Ills at the best, aud will not, proba-
bly,, accomplish even as much and no one
seems to expect much. II is not UNDER
stood that Mr.. Blair has any particular
authority, but that he will ascertain wheth-
er true peace is now attainable.

Union Men of North Carolina.

The Cincinnati Commercial published
an interesting account OF the experience of
Captain Albert Grant, Of The Nineteenth
Wisconsin infantry, who was taken prison.
er before Petersburg in June last. and es-
capped from the rebsl prisou-pen at Column
bia, S. G. The Commercial says;
"The most remarkable of his operations
relates 10 the numbers and spirit of the
Union men in North Carolina. When he
had been twenty days out. and had just
crossed the line between North and South
Carolina, he was startled about the mid
die of the night, by hearing voices in the
middle Of the road and approaching. Step
ping aside and listening closely, he was
treasured by the discovery ,het one of the
voices was that of negro, and supposed,
of course, the other was negro also. He
called them, snd inquired the road to a
town not far distant, which was in the
direction he wished to 60. A white mans
voice replied:
"Men of your stamp don't want to go
to that town--you must flank it,"
"What 90 you mean by men of my
stamp p was the response.
"Why," aid the Carolinian, " / mean
that you dol't want 10 go there, that's all I;
and YOU must flank it,"
"But what do you suspect me of being p
Capt. Graft inquired.
You are Yankee replied the Caro-
lnian il you go there you will be made
a prisoner.
And # | am Yankee" said the
Captain, sand wantedhto flank the town, is
there anybody about here who could show
me how Il do its there such man p
"That be-" was the reply, and the
Carolniat parted from his negro compan-
ion, who turned out to be woman. and
took Captain Grant TO his house, and called
up his wife and had her get supper for the
stranger. Capt. Grant had been for months
IN rebel prisons, and Jared hard, and for
twenty days had been sleeping by day in
hiding pieces, and crawling weary and
sore footed, on his way by night, living on
raw corn. The supper at the hospitable
Carolinians, he says, was the best he ever
tasted. There were hot buckN heat cakes
and cold chicken and preserves, and every
thing was inexpressibly good.
Here Capt. Grant got his first insight of
the faithtulness, earnestness and hopeful
ness of the real Union party of North
| Carolina, His host told him how and
where to find Union men, and marked out
the most favorable roads for him TO take,
giving many directions, all of which were
proven to have BEEN given in good faith.

CoNeREss.--Congress has again assem-
bled, and in the Senate on Monday, Sena-
tor Wilson's bill 10 emancipate the wives
and children of colored soldiers occasioned
an animated debate, and was passed by
vote of q to 10. 1t is estimated that the
bill will Immediately make free, in Della
ware, West Virginia, Kentucky and Mis-
souri,, from eighty to one hundred thousand
women and children, who will owe their
liberty in great measure TO the persistent,
uncompromisins exertions of Senator Will
son, which have secured the passage of this
important measure.
In the House on the same day speeches
were made on the constitutional amend
ment abolishng slavery. As it requires
twothirds to carry the measure, and as
most of the democrats in the House still
cling TO the corpse of slavery, its passage
is hardly expected, but when the new con-
gress assemblies, elected the past year, it
will be passed without delay. Among
those who spoke in favor of the amend
ment on Monday, was the Hon. JUSTIN S.
MORRILL,, the representative from this dis
triet.

The Paper Question Again.

If any one thinks that it is newspaper
and book publishers alone that suffer from
the exorbitant price of paper, we would
like TO undeceive them at once. 1t is the
people themselves that suffer from the en-
HANGED price of paper stock. Whereas,
few years ago, every leading city in our
country had a penny paper, and many
two cent papers. There is not now a pen
ny paper in the Union, and the two.cent
papers are four or five cents each, and the
large weeklies and illustrated papers that
formerly sold for five cents now sell for
ten or fifteen cents. The same ratio in
the advance on books is made so that al
though publishers have been losers to
greater or less extent, the main loss comes
upon the people who buy.
Two years ago every man had his CON-
plement of weekly papers, and most fami-
lies had daily. Now the daily has TO be
discarded in most cases, and not few
deny themselves the weekly or take it in
company with neighbor. Here is where
the great wrong appears. 1t is anti-re-
publican to keep Information out of the
reach of the masses but the high price of
paper does just this. 1t not only affects
newspapers, but school and other books,
until what was formerly common article
in every family, is now discarded in many
as being of so high price as TO bring it
among the luxuries which must be done
without.
The question of suspending the duty on
foreign paper is now before Congress.
The paper manufacturers are alarmed, and
are resisting it. We shall watch with
some interest to see which has the most
weight on onr representatives., the good Of
the people or the money of the paper
makers Caledontan.

the amount Of insurance, $4,000, will re-
place the building as good as it was befe re.
A subscription is in progress TO raise the
amount needed. As TO the origin Of the
fire, he says: We suppose that it must
have taken from burning chimney, as the
fire appeared in room that had not been
occupied for months, but was directly be-
low ore in which there had been fire dur
ing the day. The Gre had made consid-
cradle progress before it vas discovered,
the engine was delayed by the deep snow,
and when ready to begin its work, the fate
of the building was decided" ,

WAR NEws.-The war news of this
week does not present features of much
interest. Sherman, it is understood, is
making some movement which will be
likely to stir up the rebels. The people
at Savannah are adapting themselves to
the new order of things, and coming out
for the Union, and the old flag, with con-
siderable alacrity, and it seems evident
the people there rejoice at the change.
This has alarmed the Richmond dynasty,
who fear that Georgia is about to give up
the coniederacy and 60 back into the I'm

-Four Months of Victory.

The Burlington Times, in discussing the
progress Of the war and OF our victories
during the past four months, says that
" during the first two years of the war an
unpleasant and Notifying feature ofnearly
all our great battles, was the frequent and
numerous captures of our cannon by our
rebel foes. Whether we suffered utter
defeat or, after long, desperate, and va
rying contest, won possession Of the field
fought for, the result was always the same,
so far as our suffering heavy losses of ar
,illery was concerned. Bragg, defeated at
Stone River, carried off nearly as many
captured cannon as he did when complete
" victorious at Chickamauga. The ex-
PLANTATION is probably found in the fact that
the defective disposition of batteries, as re-
lated TO improperly placed infantry sup
ports, exposed them to quick capture by
the enemy. 1t is also noticeable that dur
| ing the first two years Of the war, when
we saved our own artillery, we seldom
captured any from the enemy. Since
Grant began to loom up into notice, these
" er porte" captures have been entirely
reversed, and wrestling cannon from the
enemy on the battle field was inaugurated
by him at Champion Hill and Chattanooga.
The record of the last four months, how
ever, presents the most remarkable and
brilliant evidence of this very desirable
change in the fortunes of war"
The following is, we believe, correct
statement of the number of these "dread-
full engines" of war taken on the battle
field since the first of September

To these enormous captures the rebels
cannot offset more than ten cannon cap
tured from us. ......
In the capture of prisoners we have
been equally fortunate, having taken since
Sept. LIST more than $4,000. During the
same time our forces have destroyed some
500 miles Of rebel railroads. The rebel
killed and wounded for the same period
will probably amount to at least $4,000.
Add to these results Of ~ie.ery s's is-a,s's--,-~
quantities of cotton destroyed and captured,
the cattle horses, ard stores that have fall
len into our hands, and the sum total is
big enough 10 warrant us in the belief that
the Confederate ship of state has been
made to leak too badly 10 keep much
longer ahoat.
