GENERAL KILPATRIcK IN THE PoLITIcAL
FIELD.-General Fitzpatrick arrived IN New
ark last evening, to begin an active and
thorough canvass of the State of New Jersey
in support Of the Union candidate for Gov
ernor, Marcus L. Ward. -
In one of his brief and happy speeches,
delivered at the Fourth Ward meeting, the
General announced his intention to visit ev-
cry town and hamlet in the state during the
canvass He denounced the copperheads,
who had opposed the government and refus-
ed aid to the soldier; argued that these
friends of the rebels at the North should be
fought as vigorously with the voice, the pen
and the ballot, as the enemy in arms with
bayonet, sabre and bullet, appealed to all
loyal men in New Jersey to remove the stain
of disloya]ty from her record and when his
earnest words brought down storm Of ap-
plause remarked that he ''liked this enthus-
iasm; 1t was the same spirit be had seen
among the men of his command, when, as
they saw the flash of the enemy's sabres, and
heard the roar Of his cannon, he had given
the word, 'Onwardr " He added that he
had left his department in North Carolina
for the sole purpose Of fighting copperheads
at home, and he meant to do it--Jersey

The Loyal Legion.

The soldiers Of the late war evince no dis
position to let die the associations and mem
ories connected with their campaigns. They
would not be Americans if they did not
cherish with an undying love the precious
associations Of the glorious battles of the
rebellion. Theirs is a glorious record, and
they do well to perpetuate the glories Of the
strife. We have received pamphlet enti
tied "Constitution and Bylaws of the Mill
tary Order Of the Loyal Legion of the Uni
ted States" We learn that the Legion num-
bers many thousand members in every loyal
State of the Union. The Order was insti-
tuted April Is, 1865, though the officers are
not yet all chosen 1t is stated that General
Grant will hold the highest official position
in the organization, and that other distin-
guished Generals will occupy prominent
positions in the society. 1t is designed that
the Legion shall bear the same relation to the
late war that the Society Of the Cincinnati
did to the War Of Independence The pre-
amble sets forth as follows:
We, the officers and honorably discharged
officers Of the Army and Navy, and Marine
Corps of The United States, whose names are
do acknowledge as binding upon the
conscience and required by all the precepts of
our holy religion, as a part of our allegiance to
God, unqualified loyalty to the Government of
the United States of America; and in rcmem-
brance of the dangers and gories together
shared in the support of this sacred duty, do
hereby solemnly associate and combine togeth-
er in the establishment of permanent and
perpetual organization"
The object of the order is stated to be to
perpetuate the memories and associations of
the war to strengthen the ties Of fraternal
fellowship and sympathy which prominently
exist between mpanions-in,arms to ad-
vance the best interests, individually and
collectively, of those associated together as
members of the Order; and to extend all
possible relief to their widows and children;
to protect the rights and liberties Of Ameri-
can citizenship, and to maintain national
honor, union, and independence, Gas.

Copperhead Consistency.

The Copperhead papers have been getting
enthusiastic over talked of approaching vis-
it of John Bright to the United rs. 1t
is enough to make cat laughVto read
laudatie ms of the great English reformer in
the World, which John Bright would not
have touched with pair of tongs during the
war. But these fellows swallow their own
words as easily as Ancient Pistor' did the
Welshman's leek. They are running after
Andrew johnson and John Bright as they
used to run after jeff Davis and Vallandig-
ham. a#

The Copperhead Nominee.

The Democracy, as they delight to call
themselves, have put their candidate in the
field. We all, Of course, are anxious to
know something about the kind of man
" hom the party heretofore dominant have
selected as their banner bearer.
OF course, there were difficulties in ma
kingka selection A man had to be found
who would prove not unacceptable to men
of the Vallandigham stripe, as represented
among us by J. W. Wall & Co. At the same
time he must be man who in some way or
other had been connected with the war, 9TH
erwise patriotic men would none of them be
gulled into voting the ticket.
Now the Convention had difficult task
Gen. Mott had good record as ar man
but then he could not see that traitors had
any rights which needed to be respected in
time of war; He had proved himself man
true to his country, and would not do. Mr..
Randolph had been the leading man of the
party in the Senate, of late, but he had too
ugly record of old as Know-Nothing,
and too clear record of late as copper
head. Besides, he had made speech against,
ratifying the amendment to the constitution
which would kill his chances in many quar-
ters. General Runyon was really the most
available man. He went to the war. He
rode horse we'll, and was creditable Brig
adler General for the whole Of three months.
He had never said anything particularly me-
morable, and has exposed himself to no CEN
sure from the traitor faction Of his party by
too earnest love of country. Accustomed
to divide his religion between the Roman
Catholic and Methodist Churches, people can
adopt the showman's alternative and take
their choice of his christianity. If they
prefer Roman Catholic. he is that If they
want Methodist, he is that; and once in a
while he goes among the Baptists, to which
Church, we believe, his ancestors belonged,
and doubtless he can say something to tickle
the Baptists. What more do the party
want. The less fixed principles, SO that he
will serve them, the better.
But what does the State of New Jersey
want? 1t wants a patricia large minded
man, who hates oppression, and believes in
the Declaration of independence. And it
| will have him! He comes from Essex
county. But his name is not Runyon..

The New Railroad 10 Deans Pond.

Workmen are actively engaged in the
construction of the branch railroad from
Deans Pond to Jamesburg. This branch
will make direct communication, by which
the coal trains from the Belvidere road can
pass to South Amboy without going around
by Bordentown. Preparations are made at
Ambey for the shipment of coal, and with
the completion Of the new road, Ambey will
probably become great coal depot. 1t
possesses advantages over both Elizabeth
port and Richmond, the harbor being never
seriously obstructed by ice, and offering a
sufficient depth of water for the largest
vessels.

Miscellaneous,

The Grand Jury in New York have pre-

1t does not necessarily follow, if you find

may be relief to some people.
Mrs. Coleman, living at 90 Pitt st. N. Y,

Mrs. Coleman was conveyed to Bellevue Hos

Another Atlantic cable is projected by .
French company, to be laid down between

'.Monroe Doctrine" will settle ali that mat
ter before long, perhaps.
It is evident that the shoe business IS

Something fol, a -negro- fearing democracy
of New Jersey to think about. Statistics

A straw. al,,


We take the following from the Washington
Republican: .s- 3fe
Mr.. Young, Corresponding Secretary of the
New Jersey Union Club of this city, has just
returned from an extended political reconLoi-
sance Ct his State, and reports the campaignto
have opened with most uncommon omens of
success. He thinks the Democracy never be-
fore showed such signs of disiniegration. To
his certain knowledge large numbers of them
have already deserted. In all his tour he did
not meet a single returned soldier who would
not vote and fight for Marcus Ward, altho'
it is militia General who heads the other
ticket. The accursed record of that State du-
ring the war is now, at least, patent TO the most
bigoted and if the Augean stables are not
cleansed at this election, it will only result from
the absolute, moral callousness of New Jersey
men. ..s-

The Louisville Journal, thinks that if J.
@. Breckenridge were to run for Governor Of
Kentucky, he would get nearly all tke votes
cast for the anti-amendment ticket. And if
either Breckenridge or Robert E. Lee was the
candidate of the sham democracy of New
Jersey, they would get as many votes as
Runyon will, and on the party platform
would be as well entitled to them.

Federal prison camp there, says:
There are still in the stockade here ten
thousand prisoners, over one thousand
having died from scurvy and their own
natural filthiness. They are we'll fed,
drawing the same rations We do, but they
crave vegetables, which, except potatoes,
are not to be had by any of US. They
have booths inside, where they sell
BACON, tobacco, potatoes, red pepper,
: and pea soup, to ono another, carrying
on, perhaps, old trades, except that their
swindling operations are confined to one
another.
They have yet some specie among
them, though the currency is mostly
greenbacks, for which the soldiers are
not allowed to trade. Potatoes is our
currency most available with them
These are bought outside at Eve dollars
