A Contrast.

The English Journals express great
admiration of America for the faithful
observance Of international obligations
during the late Fenian troubles. This
admiration is in no degree lessened by
the contrast which American conduct
presents to that of England during our
civil war. IF our Government had con-
nived al the invasion and subjugation
Of Canada, in what respect would IT,:
have been worse than the material and
moral aid in England, which the Brit
ish Government never prevented, to the
disunion and ruin of our country p
Nevertheless, one wrong does not war
rant another. We are proud that no
provocation has induced the United
States to render to England the same
injustice she has suffered, and hope
England will show her appreciation and
gratitude by acceding to the PRESIDENT
request for the release of the Fenian
prisoners -BaH. transcript.

Itiis not surprising that the Chief
Justice should not exhibit any ayidity
for the privilege of presiding at the
trial of Mr.. Davis. What is the differ
ence between the platform on which
Governor Chase stood in Ohio, and that
upon which Mr.. Davis stood in Missis-
sippi I? Both took shelter under State
sovereignty" and both asserted the
right ola State 'fto act" The only
difference is, that Gov. Chase invoked
State sovereignty" against slavery; and
Mr. Davis invoked it for slavery.
We remember hearing an old politi-
clan once say, who had been somewhat
annoyed BY persons bringing up for
mer expressions of opinion by him in
consistent with his subsequent course,
that there should be statute Of limita-
tions applied in cases of that kind, that
no mans opinions should be quoted a.
gainst him where they were over four
years old.-Nat Intel.

Mr.. EDIToR: Some very sensitive individ-
ual, who seems to be a Union man fallen
from grace, in your last weeks paper, is very
hand cutfed white man-and South Car
DINA confederate son of chivalry at that--to
a negro ]. woman. The facts in the case,
which hope will relieve the pain and sor-
row OF your correspondent linear Westmin-
ster,'' are these: George Campbell, q white
man, and Mary Thomas, anegro woman,
were each declared by a jury of Carroll coun-
ty to be thief. In that respect, at least,
they We're equal without the assistance of the
Civil Rights Bill and they were on par so
far as character and responsibility are con-
'cerned. They were sentenced to the same
place-the Pentitentiary ; he for four years,
she for three.
1t was necessary for safety to hand cuff
them, as well as six other violators of the
law. He preferred to be joined with the me-
gro, and | gratiied him in that respect In
stead ofshedding tears over his disgraceful
connection, he purchased candies, cakes and
other delicacies for his companion, on the
way to the depot; and on the cars, insisted
upon reclining his head lovingly and affec-
tionately on the lap of his colored associate
IN crime. She, however, objected to such
intimacy, even from son of chivalry, and
declined his endearing embraces. Ifany one
suffered an insult, it was the girl and not the
South Carolina gentleman, who was endeav-
oring to play the gallant under suchunfavor-
able circumstances. Your delicate stom-
ached correspondent will hardly agree with
me, but l think thief is a MteGbe he
white, or black; Rebel, or Union; first
| family gentleman of South Carolina, or a
mean low cuss of a niger. IT. very funny
notion your correspondent has got that a
South Carolina confederate soldier cant be a
thief. He thinks, [ suppose, that it is chiy-
alrous eccentricity Of conduct, such as was
practiced by his gentlemanly brethren under
Rosser, Stuart, Harry Gilnorey Brad. john
son and other christian and humane gentle
men, who belong to yourseorresponden.'s
political church. Your correspondent ought
to quit farming on the Gettysburg Turnpike
and take to writing witty books like Arte7
mus Ward. His success would be certain.
The negro stole property of the value of fif-
teen or twenty dollars, the confederate
South Carolina gentleman, of the value of
some two hundred. Part of his booty was a
horse, for which kind of property he, no
doubt, formed quite an attachment, whilst
IN the patriotic service of Mr. Davis | ask
your funny correspondent seriously which of
the two he ought to pity the more; the ne
gro, who has had no moral nor educational
training; or this son of South Carolina with
all the advantages he has enjoyed?

Death Of a Prominent citizen

CeatM o. q prominent Citizen.
When the rumor was first started up
ON our streets yesterday that George B..
Jones, Esq, one Of our most worthy, in
fuential and responsible citizens had,
IN tit of mental disorder, committed
suicide, it seemed SO shocking as to be
incredible. Mr.. Jones had been known
and universally respected as an upright
man, warm friend, a successful mer-
chant and an earnest, benevolent Chris
tian. Having retired from active bust
ness at the close of 1865, with hand
some competency for himself and family,
living with the happiest Of domestic
circumstances around him, his lot
seemed a favored one indeed; and, to
those unacquainted with the state of
his mind and health, rendered the nun
ner Of his death all the more shocking.
g The facts Of the case are briefly these:
For some months past Mr.. Jones'
health has been slowly undermined
Seasons OF great excitement or complete
dependency would come upon him, and
he had on more than one occasion init
mated to his family that his mind was
being impaired. For days before his
disappearance the worst apprehen-
sions Of his friends were excited, and a
watch was kept over his movements
On Thursday night his quiet demeanor
and apparent good spirits threw his fam
lily of: their guard. A son who had
watched with him the night before, left
for his own residence when Mr.. Jones
retired for the night. At five o'clock
the next morning it was discovered that
Nlr. Jones had got up from his bed, and
he could nowhere be found His
watch, bank book and pocket book were
found in his bedroom.
Shortly after this it was announced
that about four o'clock he had been seen
on the bank of the Mo,ongahela river,
near Lock No. l.. There his coat, care
fully folded, was found, and his hat laid
on top. This was the last and only
trace of the missing and unfortunate
man.
1t is supposed that under some .aber-
ration of mind he has either leaped or
fallen into the river. Although cease
less search was made for him yesterday,
his body has not as yet been recovered
A large and interesting family circle
are thus bereaved in a manner which
calls for our tenderest and truest SYM
pathies.
The rumor that large losses had in
yolyed Mr.. Jones in financial difficulties
which he was unable to surmount, we
are assured, is without any just founda-
ton. The losses which fretted him in
his weakness and nervous irritability
were small and unimportant, while, as
we are assured by one Of his intimate
friends, his assets are large, solid and
valuable. 1f s 81
At a late hour yesterday evening,
and after the above was written, the
body of Mr.. Jones was found floating in
the river, about one hundred yards be-
low the place where he had deposited
his coat and hat. His arms were folded
and his face was calm and peaceful
Coroner Clawson has been notified, and
will hold an inquest to-day.-PittsJmy

The Late Child Murder.

More About the Minister aoho Whipped his
Child to Death for not Saying his
Prayers. ~
III The account Of the whipping to death
OF a child three years old by.it father,
a clergyman, because it would not say
It's prayers, near Medina published yes
terday, awakened the greatest indigna-
ton ofour citizens against the inhuman
father. The report was hardly credited,
SO unnatural and monstrous was the
crime committed. We blush to say it,
but the most sickening and dreadful
part of unparalleled horror was not pub
,lished. aso
Lindsley's Chats the monsters name)
statement before the Coroner's jury,
given yesterday, was corroborated by
other witnesses before the jury. The
body of the child told more plainly and
pathetically than words could, of the
terrible punishment it had undergone.
Several of its fingers were broken, and
the blood had oozed from every pore.
10 conceal the crime the father tied the
little ones hands behind its back and
placed it in its cofip. While physicians
were makinga post norton examination
Of the body, he sat by, coolly looking at
the proceedings. After awhile he spoke
and asked them if they had not carried
Ethis thing about far enough" The
physicians discovered no disease about
the child-it died solely from excessive
and cruel punishment. The little one
would have been three years old next
August-whipped to death because it
would not say its prayers
We are told that Lindsey justifes
his horrid work. He thinks it was his
daty to punish the child until his will
was broken and he obeyed. Lindsey
was arrested yesterday and committed
to Jail in Albion. 1t was with the ut
most difficulty that the officers who had
him in charge could keep the citizens Of
Medina and neighborhood from lynch
ing the murderer on the spot. Linds-
ley is a man about five feet eight inches
in height, well proportional, has black
whiskers, and dark complexion. He has
the appearance of man of violent tenn.

Terrible Murder i'm Indiana
Four Persons ASSaSSinated--
The Murderer Captured.
[ From the Cincinnati Gazette.

AOAl tHS OdZtltc
A tragedy, rivaling those of Deer6eld
in this State, and Philadelphia, Pa,
where whole families were butchered,
occurred at an early hour on Tuesday
morning, in the vicinity of West Baden,
Orange county, Indiana.
From what we have been informed of
the case, it appears that shortly after
the breaking out of the war, a man
named McCraeken, enlisted in the
Union ranks. A short time after his
departure for the seat of war his house
and barn were burned to the ground,
the fire having originated by the torch
OF an incendiary. On returning home,
after having served his country faith
fully. Mr.. McCracken learned from a
family named Woodward that man
named William Saunders was the in-
cendiary, his own daughter having
acknowledged the fact Saunders was
arrested at the instance of McCracken,
but the case was finally compromised,
and the suit withdrawn The county
officials, however, took hold of the mat
ter, and the grand jury having indicted
Saunders, his trial was set for thisweek
Saunders, hearing that the Woodward
family would be the principal witnesses
against him, swore that they should
never appear in the court room alive
In fulfillment of these threats, he, on
Tuesday morning last, short time be-
fore daylight, repaired to the residence
of Mr.. Woodward, and with a bowie
knife. coolly and deliberately murdered
Mr.. Woodward, his wife, and eldest
daughter, and an old lady, the mother
of Woodward. The bloody deed be-
coming knowing throughout the neigh
borhood, the murderer was pursued, and
finally arrested. The most intense iex-
citement prevailed throughout the whole
OF Orange caunty, and strong threats of
lynching the assassin have been made.

PARIS, Friday. June II, 1866.
Waiting for the first blow Such, in
a word, may he said to be the condition
of half Europe at the present moment.
We are not yet fighting, and that is all
which can safely be affirmed. But
Garibaldi is ON foot at last, and has
passed through Geneva on his way to
join his army of volunteers at their
headquarters at Como. The Prussian
army, too, has not only entered Hols-
TEN, but its commander, General de
Manteufel, has dispersed by force, as
he threatened, the Assembly of the
States Of that province at Itzehoe, has
arrested the Austrian Commissioner
who came to preside over the Assembly
and protested against its dissolution,
and has sent him off to the fortress of
Rendsburg. It seems scarcely possible
that Austria, who has already proposed
to the Diet TO call out all the Federal
army against Prussia, will stomach this
fresh insult. Nothing, in fact, but the
unwillingness to be the first to begin
seems to prevent the conflict from i'm
mediately breaking out.
