him again.
FoUN9.-The Copperhead flag which the
Union men were accused with stealing last
Fall, was found yesterday, under sofa in the
Parlor of the Bedford Hotel. 1t is needless
to say who secreted it.
Ras-We have been requested to say that
Mr.. Howard Dramatic and Musical Gompa
ny win exhibit at the Court House tonight
Mr.. Howard is the lessee Of the Cumberland
Theatre where his Company has held forth
for the last eight menths.
RpWe had the pleasure of taking our
young friend Capt. Josiah Hyssong, of Co.
H, 55th Reg P. v, by the hand few days
since. He was severely wounded some time
ago but is rapidly recovering. We are conf
dent he makes good officer.
RAJ Persons handing in advertisements
viii be charged with them, unless otherwise
directed. Professional gentlemen handing in
Auditor Notices willbe charged with them,
and in no instance viii we depart from this
rule. When they collect their own fees they
must also collect printers fees, or do as we
have done, time and again, loose them.
Rag~An order has been issued by the War
Department, placing the 1S6th and 18th
Regiments of Pennsylvania Volunteers at this
and other points along the border. One
company of the 18th has already arrived
here and encamped above town in Mr.. Sam
uel De6baugh's grove This precaution is
taken to prevent evil disposed persons from
making sudden inroads across the border in
to this and other counties of this State and
Maryland
E@- We stated last week that Mrs. Imler
who was arrested and incarcerated for the
murder Of her child is soldiers widow. We
were misinformed, and therefore take so much
of our statement back. She was brought up
on writ Of Habeds Corpus before His Hon
or, Judge King, on last Tuesday, and we un-
derstand, remanded for further hearing. We
have no opinion to express in regard to her
guilt or innocence.
THAT WHICH IS BRED IN THE BoHE WILL.
APPEAR THROUGH THE FLESH. We are in
formed that "seceshn woman in st. Glars
vile, Bedford county, displayed her breeding
by tying Grape upon her dog, when the news
was received of the. assassination Of our la
mented President. This female has certainly,
through ignorance and political malice, ex-
ceeded all the Northern traitors who have so
disgraced themselves by exhibiting their dis
respect for the Nations great martyr.
The above we clip from the HoIlidaysbuUg
Register We have made strict inquiry to as
certain the truth of the averment, and it is
with shame that we are compelled to admi-
its correctness. It is said that the dog even
,spurns his mistress. But this is only another
instance Of the barbarism OF the Copperhead
party in this county. By their works shall ye
know them.
The CAPTURE AND D1sPosAL OF JEFF-
He OF THE PETUcoAT.-A worthy friend
hands us the following ehich we think highly
practical. The idea if carried out, would be
an immense source of revenue. All his Cop
perhead friends in the country would feel in
duty bound to pay their respects to the great
fallen And he having iniated the new order
Of the petticoat it would be an additional at
traction to see the man who said after ''all this
destruction of life and property we viii
be compelled to acknowlede the Southern
Confederacy,' in company with his followers,
robed in these
Garments of a mystical sublimity,
No matter whether russet, silk or dimity,"
vending their way with yisages long and seedy
to pay their respects to the man who they
have always claimed was a PRODIGY of chival
ry an6 magnanimity. Oh wouldn't we en-
JOY it. Editors generally get free tickets, but
rather than any body's feelings should be |
hurt, we viii pay the dollar and think it
good investment But read our friends sug
gestions
MEssRs EDiroRs: see by the papers that
jeff Davis is captured. i infer that it is true
as it is official, and don't doubt but that it
viii be confirmed by the Bedford Gazette |
OF week afteF next. WITHOUT WalllHg tOF bHe
above paper, we viii concede that the chiyal-
ric president has been arrested and will
be found guilty of treason, if not, of being
accessory to the assassination of our late
worthy President If found guilty, the SEN
tence of the Court, and the sanction of the
civilized world viii be that he shall hang by
the neck until dead
But lis man who has made so much mis-
chief to be let Off SO easy? a man who has
starved thousands ofour patriotic people. who
has sacrificed thousands Of human lives upon
the battle field, and who has done our coun-
try inealcullable mischief, only that he might
crafty reasonable ambition, deserves not
to have his own private feelings consulted
with regard to the manner Of his stalking off,
nor with regard to tho use to which his body
may be put before hstis called upon to doff

tried and convicted traitor, - and prior to
the day appointed for his execution, that he
be conveyed from one point TO another over
our great country and exhibited, Just as cap &
tired, an admittanee fee of-say one dollar
to be charged as revenue to the government,
