Dallas herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1849-1873, 1866-02-03

The first treason case, consequent
upon the late war, is now being tried
in the United States District Court
of Tennessee, before Judge Trigg.
The case is the United States vs..
John S. Gamble, who was an enrol
ling officer under the Confederate
Government in Blount county, East
Tennessee. This is the first treason
trial since the memorable Aaron
Burr case.
THoUGHT IT WAS A CoNUNDRUM.-
The last effusion of the renowned
Artemus we have not yet seen in
print. 1t is said that A. w. being
at one of the New York churches
recently edited the audience by his
unexpected reply to the preachers
text, which was as follows: "How
are the mighty fallen?" After a
short pause Artemus looked up in
quiringly, II give it up"
IMPEACHMENT OF THE PRESIDENT.
The Nashville Union of the 23d
ultimo, says that printed copies Of
a petition to Congress for the i'm
parchment of the President have
been sent to that city from the east
for signatures. This certainly in
dicates what is brewing in the rad
ical camp.
YANKEE INGENulTY.-A Northern
paper says:
A smuggling arrangement for
pumping whisky from Canada
through pipes at the bottom OF the
Niagara and thence underground to
concealed reservoirs, has just been
overhauled by revenue officers.
During the prevalence of the late
annual eclipse, an enthusiastic col
ored individual in Norfolk, Va, be-
came greatly elated, 'Bress de Lord"
said he, "nigger's time hab come at
las-hc's free, and now we gwine to
hab black sun-surely the Master
of glory am wild de colored folks"
A stray contraband from down
South was lately inspecting horse
power in operation, when he broke
out thus: "Mister, / has seen heops
of things in my life, but / never saw
whar horse could do his
his own work and ride himself tool"
At ST. Louis, Dec 90, 1000 head
of Texas cattle for Mr.. Alexander,
of Illinois, were driven across the
river on the ice
A concert is to be given in Mem
phis for the reliefof the widow and

that he took with him n note for

SUIT AGAINST SECRETARY STAN
ToN.-Ne,e York Jan. "a suit
commenced in the Supreme Court
to-day against Secretary Stanton by
Joseph H. Maddox, for alleged false
Imprisonment, the plaintiff having
been n purchaser in Richmond I'M
der permission of Mr.. Lincoln and
tho Secretary of the Treasury, of
large quantities of tobacco destroyed
by our forces at Fredericksburg, in
1864, and having been kept in the
Old Capitol Prison until President
Johnson came into Office. He claims
100000 damages. The defendant
claims that the plaintiff was guilty
of a violation of the articles Of war,
in trading with the enemy; that the
arrest was made, not by his order
but by the Provost Marshal, and
that the plaintiff is still on parole
in s., 1000 to await trial on such q
charge.

SOUTHERN INFLUENCE IN THE Fu-
TuRE.-The New York correspon-
dent Of the London Cosmopolitan,
writing Dec. End, says:
The cditorofthc New York Times
affects to laugh at my prediction in
Your columns that, at no distant
day, Lee, breckenridge and other
heroes Of the late Contodcracy,w6uld
become the leading statesmen of tho
United States. But | only predi-
cate my prognostics from facts that
pass before my eyes. A. III. Ste
phens, late Vice President of the
Conttderacy, in passing through
this city, isvisited and welcomed by
our most influential citizens. Gen,
10. Johnston is no sooner registered
at the Now York Hotel than he is
visited by all the leading "nobs" of
the Fifth Avenue, and Toasted and
fetcd like n prince; and should Gen.
Lee or Gen. Breckenridge drop in
on us, their presence would create Il
popular furorc.
Does the Times doubt or deny il e?
And why is it that our people are so
ready and eager to pay homage to
men so recently in arms against the
United States =? 1t is simply owing
to the fact that Il large portion of
the better class of the Northern peo-
pie deeply sympathize with the
South in its late struggle for indie
pondencc; while the right of coercion
denied by many leading Northern
men, as well as newspapers and po-
litical conventions, is still latently
doubted by all who were educated
in the State Rights School Besides
this the personal character and mil
itary achievements of the Generals
above named have surrounded them
with the halo Of military glory
which always takes the popular
heart. SO, in answer to the snecrs
of the Times, permit me to repeat
the prediction that the prominent
heroes of the South have only to
bidc their time to become the popu-
lar idols of the people Of the Union.
