A PRISONER KILLED BY THE CARS IN
ATTEMPTING TO ESCAPE.-A shocking affair
occurred on the Central railroad at an
early hour this morning near Warmers
station. Garry Putnam, depot policeman
at Syracuse, left here on the LOS train this
morning for Syracuse, having in charge a
prisoner, whose name we did not learn,
whom he had been looking for some time.
Near the place indicated, the prisoner
rose from his seat and plunged head fore
most through a window. We do not learn
that the train was stopped and search
made for the man. This morning, men on
the mail train from Syracuse, which ar
rived here at 10 o'clock, discovered the
dead body of a man lying between the two
tracks, and were about removing IT, when
Putnam and two or three friends informed
them that they would take charge OF it:
One side of the mans head was smashed
in, and one of his legs was badly cut. The
injuries on the head were sustained doubt
less In striking the ground when the leap
was taken, and the leg was injured by the
wheels of a car passing over it,. What
crime the man wa charged with we did
not learn. It is said that officers have
been on the watch for him some time, and
Garry Putnam was fortunate in securing
him, We did not learn that any blame is
attached to Mr.. Putnam in allowing the
man to escapc.-Rochester Union, august 7.

the concluding paragraph:
at is the settled purpose Of the traitors
at the North and the rebels at the South
to involve the country in another bloody
war; and this they aim to do during the
next two years, under the lead OF Andrew
Johnson. An attempt to force southern
traitors into their seats in Congress with
bayoncts will be made the occasion for the
outbreak. Let the dcspot now at the head OF
the Government attempt u thing of this
kind ifhc dare. A million of gallant Union
men will at once appear in the District of
Columbia, surrounding both the Capitol
and White House, disposing ofthc heads OF
leading traitors after the most approved
stvle of the age in which the King Of Eng
land lost his head. If another war shall
be forced upon the country, the loyal

majority of the people Of this great nation,
intend it shall be no child's play. They
will. as they ought to do, make the entire

will not, and ought not, leave a rebel fence
rail, clubhouse, or dwelling, in the eleven
seeded States. And as for the rebel
population, let them be exterminated.
And when the war is wound up, which
should be done rapidly, and with swift
destruction, let the lands be ~resurveyed
and sold out to pay the expenses of the
war, and settled only by a people who will

On election day q man named Ham (Union)
knocked down q man named Kelly (rcbel)
for shooting Hams little brother some days
before. Kelly went to the place where the
voting wa going on, and had a hurried
consultation with his rebel friends. Kelly,
in about twenty minutes, walked up to the
voting place and coolly put q pistol to
Hams head and fired. Ham was shot the
second time in the side by another man.
At the same the rebels began to shoot
down Union men.
Willis, while voting, was shot and kill
cd; Major Roberts was shot In the hip.
Almost simultaneous with kelly's shoot
ing Ham, a party of fifteen rebels from
another precinct dashed up on horseback
and began to fire at Union men. The
Union men were driven of, went home,
got their guns and rcinforcements, and re-
turned to the sceneAf action and drove
the rebels, and have been hunting them
down ever since. Efforts to produce peace
arc in progress, but the Union men feel
themselves outraged, and are very indig-
nant. Some twenty rebels have fed the
county, or are hidden. Willis and Ro-
bcrts were shot down in cold blood, they
not knowing that Kelly and Ham had had
q difficulty. A rebel named Moore was
killed. No voting was done at the pre-
cinct after II o'clock.-Cinctnndti Gnzette.

PuILApELrnfA, August l2.-Thc great
National Union Convention to assemble
hero on Tuesday gives ample promise OF
banS obviously successful. The delegates
| and Visitors Interested in the Convention
! arc pouring IN from all quarters. rive
hundred guests arc already lodged IN the
Continental Hotel, and other ho'es are
filed in proportion.
Tho National Committee has already
done much to facilitate the organization OF
tho Convention. ~..t.l IL. "a
Representatives from nearly every State
are already here. There seems to be no
chance for q quarrel where double dclcga-
tions have been appointed, as they have
determined in every instance to unite in
casting the votes of their respective States
and dividing the honors.
The only disturbing element Is about a
single person, and the Ohio delegation will
settle that matter without serious diff
Guilty.
All the delegates now here arc for the
Union Of all the States and against a dis
union Congress.
The people of Philadelphia are struck
with the high character and dignifed con-
duct of the delegates, especially those from
the South.
There is q large lobby at work here in
the Radical interest, many Of whom are
the correspondents of the leading Radical
journals. These are doing their utmost to
induce Vallandigham to take a seat in the
Convention. They already declare that
without him in the Convention they will
not be able to stem the popular tide that
will flow from it. The Radicals rely wholly
on Vallandigham to help them destroy
the influence, power, and prestige of the
Convention.
Forncy is here actively at work. Strenu-
Gus efforts arc making to prevent his join
ing the new organization against o tJran-
nical Congress. Money will be raised to
keep him out. Clymer's friends are much
exercised, fearing that Forney Will aban-
don Geary.
From present appearances it is most
probable that the Convention will organize
promptly, Il series of resolutions adopted,
and q National Union Committee APP
pointed.
A few speeches will be made by men re-
presenting different sections, without vast
ing time, and the greatest dclibcrativc and
most harmonious body of men ever met in
the United States will adjourn probably OF
Friday.
