ROBBERY IN BUCKINt:HAM
LAR DETECTION OF THE THIEVES ~.
the l4th of February, Mrs. John Do,,;1h
OF Buckingham county, and her familSs.'
went out to spend the day. and n,l:s.,
theirreturn found that theirsmoke.b dp,, oh
had been broken open and twentv.e,s.'e
pieces Of meat stolen. No trace Of w.
thieves were found, but dav or t ,,.e
afterwards Mrs. Davis noticed that IVY
dog appeared to be unwell, and admir- MIR
tered an emetic, which, when it onaro
ted proved conclusively that the do q.
had been devouring an unusually lar,.s'
quantity of raw meat. The dog Vs. vs.
locked up until he became ravenousis
hungry, and then turned loose and FIJI
lowed. He ran off into the woods. ana
soon hunted up a ham, which was takan
from him. The dog still continued bi1
search, and in the end the whole of t H.,
twenty five pieces of meat was Recovered
in the same manner. a young nav
then lay III wait near the place WHORE
the meat had been hidden, and in tha
night ten men camestealthily up. Thew
We're fired on Immediately, and ono
named Lane, was shot in the neck. Int
made his escape, while the other man
named Thomas was wounded in the
face, and is now in custody. The ey.
IRENE hunger Of the dog detective douht.
less sharpened his faculties, and he fair.
ly earned an honest dinner for many y
day to come.

without the slightest foundation in
truth. General EwELL did, in the WIN
ter and spring of 1864, twice write to
Mr.. FAULKNER, and, unasked and I'M
solicited by him, and tender to him the
position of Inspector General of his
corps, but the position was not sought
norapplied for by Mr.. FAULKNEE, nor
was il accepted. held, nor its functions
exercised by him fer an instant.
This attempt upon the basis of idle
street talk to impeach the character of
an honorable man, and to wound him in
his tenderest sensibilities, will excite the
indignation Of every right thinking
man in the community.
Will not the Spirit do itself honor by
retracting the gross and unfoHnded I'M
putations contained in its article.

A FAIR indication of the motives
which rule those who rule Congress, is
seen in late editorial of the Washing
ton Chronicle, in favor of the admission
of Colorado as State. The argument
therein first presented, and last repeated,
is, that the Senators and Representa-
tives elect from the proposed New State
are "loyal and earnest Repu6licans"-
"among the most thorough Repu6llcdns
in the Union" This unblushing intro
duction of a circumstance that has NJ
honest connection with the question ull'
der consideration, and the reiterated N.
sistence that constitutional function OF
the highest dignity, is to be administer
ed for a miserable and passing party az
vantage, indicate a hardihOood OF polll'
zeal depravity that was not deemed po''
sibIe before the present domination
Such outgivings, however, must not sur
prise. A "dead duck" must needs po'-
lutte the air.

The most remarkable document con-
nected with contested elections Is the
brief prepared by Hon James Brooks, i'm
the contested election case of Dodge vs..
Brooks, now pending before the Flee
ton Committee Mr.. Dodge who is a
very rich man, having an income of one
thousand dollars a day, contests Mr..
Brooks right to his seat on the ground
of fraud on the part of Mr.. BIS friends
in conducting the election. There has
been a great mass of testimony taken on
both sides, covering nearly one thous-
ant printed pages. Mr.. Brooks sums
it all up, however, ina little brief, which
for pith and ua0,as,Uerdbte argument has
never been equalled by any document of
the kind. It turns the tables complete
ly on Dodge, and shows concluslyely
that the fraud is altogether on his OBS
side. 1t convicts him of violating the
laws Of New York relative to the use of
money to aid elections. and discovers
over fifteen thousand dollars spent by
him for the purpose of securing his own
election. 1t also shows up his corrupt
bargains with Barr and others of the
Tammany organization-made on S,ua-
day, in violation of the New York statute
against the transaction of business on
that day. The subscription list gotten
up by certain prominent citizens of New
York to aid Dodge's election is also re-
ferred to, together with the names of
the subscribers, and the amounts sub
scribed, making total of sl5,5OS.I,
Among these subscribers is Mr.. Marshal
O. Roberts, who leads off with $1,000
There's little secret about this sub
scription, which perhaps everybody
don't know. 1t seems that Mr.. Roberts
was the owner of the steamer Illinois,
which was sold to the government I'M
der appraisement for thrice os much as
she wds ororth. Mr.. Dodge contestant
was one Of tie appraisers, and signed the
award upon which Mr.. Roberts got the
money. No wonder he could afford to
subscribe literally toward Dodge's cleo
ton. This steamer transaction will all
come out when the House resolution of
Thursday last, requesting the Secretary
of War to furnish information on the
subject, shall have been answered.

Oh. SwlNDLEs.--An old comrade in
the Agricultural laboratory at Yale
College, who has for many years re-
sided III southeastern Ohio, except
while absent in command of an Ohio
regiment during the war; sends us a ia
miliar letter, from which, though pri-
waite one, we take the liberty to publish
the following extract: 6 | think
you were wise in excluding from the
4griculurist all advertisements of Oil
companies. From my location, and
other reasons, l have practically been
obliged to study oil in its geological re-
lations more than most geoligists in the
country, and | haou that a very large
part of the oil companies are swindle,
their lands being worthless. Buying
stock in them would be like buying a
lottery ticket at two prices and finding
at last that the ticket itself was bogus.
There is little oil to be found almost
anywhere in the West-just enough to
delude-but good locations are only in
limited areas. '-American Agricuttao-

The Earthquake IN Pennsylvania

At the time President johnson vetoed
the Freedmen's Bureau bill, Thad. Ste.
vens, trembling with rage, remarked.
there are earthquakes all around US. #
he thought he heard the rumbling of
political earthquakes then, his nerves
must be unstrung now with the rumb.
ling Of the earthquake which has exten.
ded throughout the length and breadth
OF the glorious old State which he at
present nais-represents.
We have already given returns from
the principal points in the State, but we
could FIJI our paper with the accounts
contained in our exchanges of the glor-
ous result throughout the State. The
returns from the different towns show
the most surprising Democratic gains
over the vote oflast fall. In every town
or city of any Importance the result is
the same. Thaddeus, look out for an
other and more destructive earthquake
in October.-Age.

SINGULAR CAsE.-One of our ex-
changes says there is a young man in
town in Vermont uho ca1 not speak to
his father! Previous to his birth some
difference arose between his mother and
her husband, and for a considerable
time she refused to speak to him. This
difficulty was subsequently healed-the
child was born, and in due time beganto
talk-but when sitting with his father
was invariably silent. 1t continued so
till it was five years old, when the faith
err, having exhausted his powers of per-
suasion, threatened it with punishment
for its stubborness. When the punish
ment was inflicted, it elected nothing
but sighs andgroans, which told but too
plainly that the little sufferer was vainy
endeavoring to speak. All who We're
present united in this opinion that Haas
impossible TOR the child to speakto itsfath-
er-and time proved their opinion to be
correct. AT a mature age its efforts to
converse with its parent could only pro-
duce the most bitter signs and groans.-

VETO OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL

President JOHNSON, on Tuesday,
transmitted to the Senate, his veto mes
sage of the measure known as the Civil
Rights Bill. The message is an able
and unanswerable document. He bases
his objections to the Bill on the ground
of its nconstitutionality its invasion
of the powers of the States, and declares
it a slide towards centralism, fraught
with evil to the best interests of the
whole country, and Republican insti-
tutions. We will give the message en-
tire in our Issue of next week.

AN amusing scene occurred on the car.

AN amusing scene occurred on the cars
between Schenectady and Utica last
Friday. A gentleman and his wifetook
passage in the cars at Schenectady for
the West, and came away without their
infant child, which had been left at the
depot in Schenectady, each supposing
the other had "took the baby" They
were not long in discovering that they
had "left something" and, getting off at
St. townsville, telegraphed back for the
missing responsibility, which was
brought to them by a blushing conduc-
tor on the next train.

WE regret to observe in the last Spirit
Of jefferson an assault upon Hon. c. J.
FAULKNER, which seems to spring
more from personal unkind feeling, than
from considerations connected with the
public good. Why should a private cit
izen thus be made the subject of news
paper attack: What justifies this drag
cling his name in this manner before the
public? Mr.. FAULKNER is no candidate
for public employment; on thecOntrary,
he stands, under our existing system Of
laws, disqualified from voting from
holing office; from even sueing in the
Courts of the State, and in a few months
by the probable adoption of the Consti-
tutional Amendment, will even cease to
have the rights of a citizen. Is not this
enough to satiatc the malice ofthose who
are using the columns of a public Press
to defame and calumniate him: Is the
mere privilege allowed him to labor for
his living a justification for such an as
sault: In that he is doing no more
than the editor Of the Spirit himself is
doing, pursuing his trade and occupa-
ton under the laws of West Virginia.
We are satisfied that the article in the
Spirit does that gentlemen great injus-
tee. 1t cannot be true that Mr.. FAULK-
NEK accompanied General EARLY's
army in its entrance into Martinsburg
in the summer of 1864, with his uniform
on his back. No one ever heard of any
such fact hereabouts, and certainly if
such an event had occurred there would
have been many here to have observed
and remembered it. Besides, the judi
cial evidence now filed in our Courts and
taken in his defence to repel some viii
famous damage suits, shows conclusive
| ~ that he did not leave the county of
Appomattox until after information had
| reached there that EARLY's army had
passed through Martinsburg.
Equally unfounded, we are satisfied,
is the alleged report of his application to
General EwELL in 1864, for a position
On his staff We have satisfactory au-
| thority for saying that this statement is

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT


At nothing are We more astonished
than at the apparent apathy of our citi-
zens on the proposed Amendment of
the Constitution OF this State. The
vote on The question is to be taken on
the 18th day Of May next. II the
amendment shall be adopted, from one
half to two-thirois OF the present citi-
zcns Of the State will thencetorth he
denied the rights of citizenship, and the
prosperity and honor of our State blasted
for many years. For a generation, at
least, there can be no union among the
people of the State-no harmonious CO.
operation for the development of its re-
sources, and no efficient inducement pre-
sented to a desirable population from
abroad to settle among us. The inhab-
tants will be divided into two distinct
classes, with mutually hostile feelings,
and antagonistic nterests-the one class,
usurpers and oppressors, the other the
defrauded and oppressed-th one en-
acting the laws, administering the
Government, and rioting in the spoils-
the other crushed with taxation to pay
the expense. Those who shall thus be
Wronged, will look, and justly too, upon
the dominant party. and all who sup
port 1t, as their enemies, who seek their
disgrace and ruin. Social intercourse
between these classes will cease, and
business relations, as far as possible, will
be dissolved and terminated. Nor could
amy one justly find fault at these results.
The man who should aid in perpetrating
such an outrage upon the rights of his
tellow-citizens, as the one proposed in
the pending amendment to the Consti-
tuition OF this State, would justly be re-
garded by the subject of his injustice
and wrong, as his malignant enemy,
and if he had the spirit of a man would
treat him as such.
But these results should, if possible,
be averted, by using every influence,
employing every possible means to vote
the amendment down. Every man who
can take the oath incorporated in the
Registry Law, should unhesitatingly do
so, and when the day arrives cast his
vote. The more rejecting men of the
Radicals should be approached, and
reasoned with, and, if possible, convinced
of the great wrong to individuals and
to the Slate, which their party propose
to commit. Light should be diffused,
and discussion had on the subject every
where over the State Every honest
Union man-every supporter of justice
and right, should spare neither time,
labor nor expense to avert the terrible
calamity, which the adoption of the
proposed amendment will bring upon
the dearest interests of West Virginia.
