Immmanse aovernment Trains.

There is now en- route from Washington
City to Louisville, Kentucky, several i'm
mense Government wagon trains. They
travel the whole distance overland, and their
great extent excites the wonder and ourios-
ily Of the people along the route, who have
never seen so large number of teams in
one train. Yesterday the first Of the series
arrived in this city and passed over the
Suspension Bridge TO the Island, when they
will resume their westward march. This
train numbered two hundred and flty-two
wagons and two thousand and sixteen
mules, each wagon being drawn by six
mules, with two leading behind. The
drivers are all darkies, duly impressed with
the dignity Of their position, and, having
travelled over so large portion of Uncle
Sans domain they have adopted very large
views as TO the extent Of his possessions
and the amount of his wealth. They are
proud of their new master, and are willing
TO live and die in the service. The mules
coming in sight of the water, and being very
\ hirsty, set up such a hrayiug the like
whereof was never before heard in these
parts. The citizens on the island had the
benefit Of this concert free Of charge.
There is yet one thousand wagons to arrive,
and they will have the opportunity of enjoy
ing similar favors, for oil of which they
should be truly thankful. Each train is
from four to five miles long. As we be-
hold this one feature IN military operations
we wonder that the National debt is SC
small. 1t has been generally supposed that
this is Sherman's wagon train, but we are
informed such is not the fact. The train is
made up at Washington city from various
sources. Some of the mules are q part oil
those brought through by Sherman, but
how many we are unable to say.

A newspaper should reflect the business
Of town or city, as. truly as a mirror re-
fleets the face Of the person looking into it.
Observing men can form pretty correct
idea of the business capacity Of the people,
and the amount Of business transacted IN a
place, by looking at the papers published
there. Hence if you want to draw business
to a given point-if you want to give it
reputation abroad and life and prosperity ct
home, Advertise not grudsingly, but ex-
tensiycly and continuously.

of the Government will be m lst surely and
effectually subserved. l repeat that the
new system Of labor is TO be inaugurated
by sober, sound and discreet judgment.
The negroes are ignorant, and their minds

the master, provided you supply motive

wanting in their pledge Of loyal support to
the Government; there may grow out Of
this blessings which YOU sir, have not fore=
seen, and some pleasing rays now illums

will be taken with as much unanimity in
South Carolina as anywhere else, and we
will submitto the condition Of things which
Providence has assigned. We cheerfully
accept the measures in welcome, and would

Just about what can be condensed in one

"UNcovsTIrurIoNAL." THE Supreme
Court of Wisconsin have decided that the
law Of Congress, requiring stamps to legal
processes, In the beginning or other stoges
of suit, is unconstitutional, and therefore
void, and the stamps on legal papers not
necessary. The ground OF the decision is
that the imposition of a tax upon any pro.
oeedlpg in State Court is an invasion OF
the right of State to regulate proceedings
in its own court; that il Congress can tax
these proceedings at all, it can lay tax that
will practically amount 10 a prohibition,
and thus legislate the State Courts on. Of

Horse Thieves Caught.

We neglected to mention The fact last
week that two suspicious looking persons
were arrested by Captain Mayo while at
tempting 10 pass through this place. They
were riding black match horses. When
questioned closely, they acknowledged that
their names were respectively John s. P.
Johnson and James A. Bridges that they
were from Greene county, Ill.,-that they
had stolen the horses they were riding, and
were endeavoring to make their way TO
Kansas. The Captain thinking there was
a sufficient number of that stripe already in
that State, sent them 10 Macon, to await
the requisiton Of the civil authorities Of
Illinois. - Randolph Citizen.

PROPERTY HOLDERS ON THE Pc
NINSULA.

The negroes, il appears, have established
a perfect reign Of terror on the peninsula in
the region of Williamsburg and Yorktown.
They are assembled there from all quarters,
and so determined are they to hold posses
sion Of that district, that the farmers there
have deemed it prudent 10 leave, while
those who left in the progress of the war
TO avoid the dangers and inconvenience
entailed by the presence of both armies, are
afraid 10 return. That rich country is thus
left perfect waste, for to return there to
engage in agricultural pursuits would be
10 incur the risk of assassination at the
hands of these negroes. What is peculiarly
strange in connection with this matter is,
that the negroes are all permitted to carry
arms. " They are thrice armed" said a
gentleman from that locality to me to-day,
" and the white man who ventures in their
midst is certain to become an object of their
savage vengeance before long unless he
leaves No region Of the country offers q
finer field for an indolent race like the ne
groes than the peninsula. Fish and oysters
abound in the rivers on either side, and the
negro can live the year round without any
other resource. A derutatIou OF gentlemen
from Williamsburg and Yorktown waited
on the Governor to-day and submitted the
whole question to him. He promises, as
understood, to afford to the people Of tina
section all the relief in his power.

A voice through the din
Cried out, ''fall in!"

But the dawn of manhood breaking
On the side Of the hill,

Where the winds through the trees doth rattle
And the snow and sleet

RETURNING REBELS,

The Anzeiger has the following on re-
turning rebels:
The behavior and department Of these re-
turning rebels is, as far as we have wit
messed and heard, quiet, modest and correct.
The men feel and know that they are beat
en- that the phantom for which they have
fought is gone forever, and that they have
only TO thank the generosity OF their former
opponents that they are permitted to return
to their homes. They all, as far as we have
learned, possess the honest intention to be-
come good citizens under the Government
Of this State and Of the United States, and
to devote themselves again to civil pursuits.
The true good-ior nothings, who did not
fight like honest soldiers, but committed
crimes and are now in fear of justice and
the vengeance Of their neighbors, are said
to have staid behind in order 10 vagabohd-
ze or found home in other countries
where they are not known. Those who re-
turn take the oath of allegiance and are
taken by Government TO their homes under
The care of Provost Marshals.
We wish and hope that these men, where
ever they arrive, will be received, - though
not with love and joy like the returning
Union soldiers,-a at least in no hostile man.
ner, and that their return to civil lie will
be facilitated ss much as possible. Ii this
is done, we are assured that a majority OF
| them will in short time become good and
useful citizens again.
Our State can use every powerful arm
which wishes TO aid in its return TO pros
perity. Let us then not repel the 10000
$4,000 rebel soldiers, who will seek their
old homes here, but incorporate them into
our Commonwealth. We are sure of them,
but we are not sure of the population OF
our State through foreign immigration in
spite of all the means used 10 draw it tc
| other States.
The Westllche Post remarks on the same
subject:
These men are not welcome TO many o
our Union citizens, still we must take
things as they are, and SO long as these eX
rebels behave decently and true TO thei
oath, 10 objections can be made TO thei
stay. They have it in their power 10 cas-
their position by an orderly, quiet behavior
and, above all, by speedy return to peace
able occupation. Union citizens shout
throw no obstacle in their way by repul
sive treatment, if they really seem earnest
ly DESTROYS Of leading such new life. Cir
cumspeciOn and vigilance are undoubtedl
necessary, but must not turn into hostilit
and persecution, unless the ex. Confederate
provoke it. We are convinced that man
of these returned rebels will become goo
Union men and even emanoipatiOnist'
Quite as much depends upon the treatmen
which our Union men extend to them q
upon the behavior Of these paroled men.
