Political FaIsehoods.

The people should be constantly awake
to the fact that there is party interest
ed in preventing the speedy restoration
of the Union The radicals who thanked
God from the bottom of their hearts for
the defeat of Bull Run" will be equally
grateful for the defeat of President john
sons policy of restoration To that end
they do not hesitate to coin and dissent
nate reports calculated to irritate the
South. and stir up distrust and suspicion
in the North The radical press is n'w
full of tales of disturbance, of threaten
ed attempts to re-establish slavery, and
of negro Instructions therefrom, OF at.
trocities committed upon the blacks, OF
reasonable aud factiOus u.terHnces OF
Southern speakers and .presscS,-while
they habitnally suppress all the reports,
so numerous and cheering, of contrary
character. One of their most atrocions
fabrications, by which officers Of the
late rebel army were made responsible
for the terrible gunpowder explosion at
Mobile has just been disposed OF by the
official report, which distinctly attributes
this sad event to the careless manner IN
which these dangerous stores were han
died by our own men.

The common people are well satisfied
with the termination of the war, and the
rebel soldiers who have been longest in
the field appear TO be the best satisfied
with the present condition of affairs. The
preachers, editors, and politicians of the

Gen Price. Adiu,ant General Killed.

We learn from Kansas city paper
and person in this city, that A. /
Mclean, formerly of Lafayette county,
Missouri, was killed at Washington, Tex
as, IA short time since, by Colonel Robert
Wood, son Of Milton Wood.'nf Saline
county.
Mclean was Gen. Sterling Prices Adj
iutant General from the first outbreak OF
the rebellion, in 1861, and it is said, was
relied upon by the General as chief
counsellor and director in business mat
ters He was Scotchman by birth, OF
good education, pleasing and courteous
manners, and was credited by those who
knew him with the possession of I'M
doubted courage and skill as an officer.
The circumstance of his violent death
grew ont of the application of Wood for
a furlough, which was not granted, as he
supposed, on account of the objections OF
Mclean Meeting shortly after III sa
loon, an alteration sprung up between
the tN o, when Wood shot Mclean and
killed him as stated Persons here re-
port that the fatal event had caused
Wood most intense anguish.
1t has been stated in some OF the pa
pers that tho homicide was committed
by Carroll Wood, son of George Wood, OF
this city This is not correct, however,
as we are informed through source very
likely to be well informed in the matter

butafterwards discovered that they were

Ccaern, Sickle. ON Maguanimi,y.

In his speech at Washington the other
evening, after an interview with the
President and just before starting to as
snme the new command in the Depart
mcnt of the East to which he has been
assigned. General Sickles said, after re-
marking that the army and navy had
conquered peace ITO make that peace
perpetual, and to make us once more a
fraternal and united people, it is necessa
ry that the victors should be magnani-
nous. The soldiers of the Union armies
who shared their rations and their blan-
kets with the foe who had lain down his
arms, gave an example worthy of all
honor and emulation. Honorable com-
bat oftentimes inspires those sentiments
of respect and appreciation which are
the best foundations of good under
standing, not less between great COM
monwealths than among individuals -
Will those valiant radicals who would
like to stand at safe distance and see
somebody else cutting the throats of the
PROSTATE enemy, read and ponder these
words of General Sicklesl He was at

TPress DISPATCH |

NEwBERN, n. c., July 29--Maj. Gen.
Ruger, commanding the department of
North Carolina, by an order dated the
21st inst, has suspended the publication
Of the Daily Union Banner, published
at Salisbury, in this State for promul-
eating dislOyal sentiments There are
several new papers which have recently
appeared in different parts of the State
of the same stamp, which will soon be
suppressed by Gen. Ruger. as they are
publishing Idisloyal sentiments of the
most dangerous character.
The Fayetteville Daily News is one of
the number. 1t says that the people of
this State will stultify and degrade them
selves by adopting the Constitutional
amendment abolishing slavery, and that
the new State Convention must leave
slavery where they found it, as it existed
before the war.
Many of the southern tier of counties
in this State bordering on South Caro-
lima, have instructed their delegates to
to the State Convention to take this po-
siton and insist to the last on the adop-
tion of the same by that body.
The health of Newbern was never bet
ter than at present. Such appears to be
the case throughout the State. The pop
nlation of Newbern is increasing at the
rate of ten thousand a year. The city
before the war numbered about 5000
1t now numbers over 10000, which makes
it the largest city in the State.
The rapid growth is owing to the Ell
terprise and wealth of the Northern ele-

started in Newbern this fall, which will
make three, the names of which will he

Horrible Murder-A Son Kills his
Mother and Sister.

HARTFORD, August IA horrible innr-
der was discovered today at daylight at
the village of Oakland, nine miles east
of this city. Mrs. Jane Starkweather
aged forty-six, and her daughter Ella,
fourteen years old, were chopped to death
in bed with an axe. The blows severed
the skull every time and the bodies pre-
sented horrd appearance. They were
also stabbed in many places with a
butcher knife, which, with the axe, has
been found.
The son of Mrs. Starkweatner, named
Albert, "a years ofage, is being examined
to-day, and it looks as if he committed
the deed for sum of not more than $500
in money, which was found in his draw
er with the knife. He first gave the
alarm, and tho beds were found on fire
his own and his mothers. The daughter
still breathed, but died in ten minutes,

Health Of the President-Great IBdi-

WASHINGTON, July 3l.-Although Pres
ident Johnson has derived much benefit
from his frequent water excursion OF late,
his health does not appear to be COM
pletely re-established. He was Obliged
to limit himself very briefly in his audi
ence to-day, aud was unable to see any
one this evening. Hopes are entertain
ed that he will be able to hold the usual
Cabinet meeting tomorrow, though it is
by no means certain that he will.

Gil of Indians ever held upon this cOnti-
nent will assemble at Fort Gibson asout

relations with the Government, and give
new and positive assurances of their good

sentative tribes of undisputed bravery

more or less in aiding in the late rebel
lion of the South. The representatives
of the Government who will confer with
them upon the forthcoming occasion, and
dictate the status they will be called up
on to assume towards the Government,
are Commissioner Dale. of the Indian

Is Lager Beer IntoxicatiugS

For the thousand tn time this question
is being tested. The Albany and Troy
courts have the subject under considera'
ton, as an attempt has been made to sup
press the sale of liquor on Sundays in
those cities. Ii is shown that in 1858
when such trial was progressing in
Kings county, Prof Chiffon testified that
of lager beer contained * TO 4 per cent.
alcohol; cider per cent; claret wine l;f
brandy 30; Madeira vine 20; cherry wine
10. Hehad analysed each of these liquids
He did not believe lager beer was intoxi-
eating unless taken in very large quanti-
ties. Another witness testified that he
drank one hundred and sixty glasses Of
lager beer without being drunk. A
physician testified that there was not
enough alcohol in lager to make person
intoxicated. Another witness had drank
thirty or forty glasses per day and it had
no effect upon him; another had drank
forty to fifty glasses without any effect :;
another had drank thirty-two glasses
and his friend siXty-fonr glasses in two
hours without being intoxicated Anoth
er drank a keg of lager containing seven
and a half gallons, in two hours. and did
not become intoxicated He conld not
earn enOgh to cool his thirst, and he aver
aged from sixty to ninety glasses per day
Another witneSss saw a man drink seven
to-two glasses of lagerin two hours, and
gohome sober Another corpulent wit
ness, weighing upwards of Two hundred
pounds, said he did not reel well unless
he drank forty glasses oflager per day
1t is unnecessary to say that on the
strength of this evidence the jury rem
dered verdict of mot guilty" and the
accused was discharged
The local of the Albany Express, who
seems to be posted on the subject, says:
From what we can learn the lager beer
dealers of this city expect to be able to
produce witnesses who will testify some
thing similar to the above. Lager is
queer beverage-four glasses will up
set" some people, while Others can carry
a keg without sweating hair"
