looking objects. Our clothes were so
badly torn that they barely clung to US,
and to add TO our discomfort we were COW
cred with sand feas, and vermin. We
were supplied with new clothing, and
soon made ourselves comfortable.
From Pensacola We were forwarded to
the Provost Marshal at New Orleans, who
forwarded US to New York.
No one who has never been in SINH
lar situation can imagine the JOY we ex-
perieuced on once more finding ourselves
within the Union lines, and once more
beneath the protecting folds of the starry
flag, Since we made our escape, We had
travelled over 600 miles, through the
rebel territory, mostly by night, with no
compass but the stars, and no chart save
a small map of the United States, thro'
the swamps of Florida, dependent on the
meager food We could steal, for our sup
port. For thirty-fve days we were thus
exposed to greater hardships than we ever
before endured. Nothing sustained US
but our longing desire to once more
breathe the free air of heaven, and once
more greet the dear friends from whom
We had SO long been separated.

MIGRATION CHECKED.-The Copper
heads, who have been unwilling sojourn-
ers, says the Reading journal, for the last
five years at the head waters of "Salt
River" and who made extensive and con-
fdent preparations to return this Fall
within the pale of civilization, have had
their fond hopes crushed by the result of
the recent election. In view of the dis
mai prospects that their ostracsm is like
ly to be perpetual, they are now cogitat.
ing the erection of permanent quarters in
that dismal abode. A very large num-
ber of the original "emigrauts" have con.
cIuded to avail themselves of the oppor.
tuuiiy of being pardoned for past offences,
by taking the oath of fallegiance to the U.
U. Government. Some Of the more dis.
gusted even go SO far as to declare them
selves the blackest of "Blaek Repubi-
cans" and to aver, moreover, that as their
party has been the means of setting the
negroes flee, they ought in justice to be
considered on par with the original
AboIi:ioniSts.

In spite of the most unscrupulous eff
forts to defeat him, Morton McMichael
is chosen Mayor of Philadelphia by over
5000 majority. Although he has given
the best energies of his life to defend the
great industrial interests of Philadelphia
aud the country on all occasions, he was
assailed pcrsistently and bitterly as the
foe Of the laboring classes, and while most
of them disregarded these falsehoods, still
a few were de!uded to vote against their
best and ablest friend 1t will be mat
ter of congratulation among the Union
men of the State that Mr.. McMichael is
chosen to the Chief Magistracy of the
great emporium of the State. He will
discharge the grave duties assigned him
with dignity, ability aud fidelity, and
maintain the high character of Philadel-
phia for devotion to order and law.

charge with such fury? They spplauded
the rebellion. They reviled the United
States Government. They sneered at
the idea of ever subduing the rebel States
They extolled the rebels as high-minded
patriots and honorable men, exercising an
undeniable right aud gallanrly striking
for liberty. Mr.. Laird defended them in
Parliament and built vessels for them
The Morning Post cIung to their fortunes
to the last, and refused to believe their
overthrow. Mr.. Gladstone declared that
Jefferson Davis had created a nation
What possible reason was there that these
gentlemen should not aid by money a
cause to Which they gave praise SO freely
There is no shame in helping honorable
men gallautly striking for right and lib
erty. There is no disgrace in the state
ment that they showed their faith By
their works. The gallant gentlemen
have indeed come to grief. Mr. Jeffer-
SOC Davis's nation died before it was born.
But is it disreputable for an English gen.
tleman to have helped the unfortunate
May he not honOrably jump in to rescne
a drowning man, even though his effort
be, in vain? Is simple humanity not es-
timable in England? The English gen.
tlemeu hurry to exculpate themselves
from the suspicion of actually aiding the
American rebels with as much alacrity
and indignation as if they were Irish
FenIans.
It is a painful and ridiculous spectacle.
If all these gentlemen were not ashamed
TO countenance and encourage rebel
lion waged against equal civil liberty, an
insurrection to overthrow free govern
ment aud establish slave-empire, surely
they need not blush at the imputation of
honestly meaning what they said, and of
supporting with their purses cause to
which they devoted their tongues and
pens.-Harper's Weekly.

THE TRIAL OF JEFFERSON DAVIS
1t is understood that the delay in the
trial of Jeff Davis is not the fault of the
Administration. 1t is the business of
the judiciary and not of the Executive to
initiate proceedings in the premises but
shere is difference of views among ju-
rists, and the opinion has been advanced
that in the paesent unsettled condition of
the Southern States, which are still under
martial law, Gin one of which the trial
would have to take place, } and no general
peace having been proclaimed, further
legislation by Congress may become nee.
essary; and, further, there would not be
time enough between now and the first
Monday in December to try the case, for
at that period the Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States will commence
their regular term at the Capitol. What
ever may be the ultimate disposition Of
Jefferson Davis and others, this appears
to be the present condition of the import
ant subject.

There seems to be no limit to the ia
taiity that follows the ambition of the
Woodwards. Chief Justice Woodward
was defeated for U. S. Senator when reg
ularly nominated and his party in power
was subsequently rejected by the United
States Senate when nominated by Presi-
dent Polk as Judge of the Supreme Court
of the United States, and again rejected
by the people in 1868 when presented for
Governor. Weary of defeats with the
father, and desiring in some measure
to retrieve his memory, the Democracy of
Luzerne, his home, nominated his son
Stanley for the Senate this fall, and the
people Of that strong Democratic county
have rejected him by 235 majority, while
the rest of the Democratic ticket is elect
ed. Verify the sour grapes which the
father has taken has set his chlldrens S
teeth on edge.

THE ENGLISH REBELLOAN HOLDERS

The London Times Indignantly de-
nouDccs the list of Englshmep suffering
by the rebel loan as malicious impos
ture, and declares that it is a complete
falsehOod to assert that the editor of the
Times loses ten thousand pounds or more
by the loan. Several of the other gen.
tlemen named are writing letters to the
same effect. Hon. Evelyn Assley denies
that he had any of the loan. Mr.. Ridout,
proprietor Of the Morning Post, makes
the same denial. Mr. Laird, of Liverpool
whom we trust Americans will remem-
Der as the builder of the AIaJan1a-au.

The CHoLERA.--There can no longer
be any doubt that the Asiatic cholera has
made its appearance and is spreading in
England. Another fatal case has occurr-
ed at Southampton. From there it has
spread to Sholing Common and Bitterne,
situate about four and two miles from
Southampton. The two cases at ShoiiDg
Common have proved fatal of seven cases
at Bitterne two have proved fatal, while
the other patients were improving. There
is also a marked diarrhea all over the dis
trict of Bitterne.
In France, the disease is likewise on
the increase. A letter from Toulon states
that it has broken out with staltling sud-
denuess at Soelies Pont, little town of
5000 inhabitants. In the course of the
first night in which it made its appear
ance there were sixty cases, and thirty
six hours later there had been 55 deaths
out of population reduced to 1000 souls
by a panic stricken people. In Toulon
it has a peculiarly virulent character.
1t has also made its appearance at Paris,
where, according to the testimony of DR..
Vacher, the condition of the stagnant
water of the basin causes serious appre-
hension of its rapid spread.

'Ehe Verdict OEBSS5.

Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont
Rhode Island aud Connecticut held theil
State elections prior to Tuesday of last
week, and the Union men gaiEed in Con-
gressmen and swept every State.
Pennsylvania elected Union Auditor
General, Surveyor General and abort 81
majority on joint ballot in the legislature.
The State ticket is chosen by from $4,000
to 10000 with a very light vote.
In Ohio the vote is very light and the
Democratic candidate, Gen. Morgan, be-.
ing much less Objectionable that Vallan-
digham, the Union majority is reduced
to about $4,000. The Democrats made
an exhausting effort, and elect as near
nothing as possible.
In Iowa the Democrats nominated a
General also and endorsed President John
son, hoping thereby to deceive many
Union voters, but they arc defeated by
from 10000 to $4,000.
In California there was no State ticket
to elect, but two,thirds of the members
of the Legislatuse chosen are Union thus
settling another coppery as Senator--Mr.
McDougal.

The LEersLArURE.--The Legislature
will convene at the capital tomorrow
It will be the most important session ever
held in Mississippi. aud its action will be
looked to with an interest only exceeded
by that Of our late State Convention. In
looking. over the list of members elect
from the several counties, we are grati6ea
to see the names Of many able and con-
servative men whom we can trust in such
an hour as the present. We hope that
a spirit of wisdom. justice and moderation
will mark the deliberations Of the Assem-
bly,.
There is one thing. however, we hope
the Legislature will NOT do. and that is,
to elevate the negro one iota above his
present status. We we're required to
declare, or at least concede the fact. that
slavery was abolished. We have done
so 10 good faith. Now let the Legisla-
ture pass law empowering the negro TO
make contracts, which contracts shall be
made and signed in the presence Of two
or more Witnesses, who shall also sign the
contract as such. This instrument would
thus become evidence in court. We are
satisfied that some such bill can be framed
which will secure the negro against fraud
and injustice, and a. the same time avoid
equalizing him with the white man as q
competent witness 10 our courts.
If we admit the negro to full equality
with white men 10 the courts. we had as
we'll bestow upon him the right Of suf'
frage at once. There would be no dan
ger of a negro voting away the life or
liberty of the white man, but there would
be danger Of bis swearing them away.
We are the Incorporating opponeyt
Of "negro equality" in any shape or
form.
