ADEKAIB COUNTY STORY.

The Press and Times prints a por-
ton of letter addressed to General
Cooper, and purporting to come from
forty-four firm Union men of Alexan-
dria and vicinity" in DeKalb county.
These firm Union men tell a most
doleful tale of the prosecutions, the
taunts and insults to which they and the
like of them are subjected by the party
beaten in the field and over and over
again at the polls that white and black
men are threatened with assassination
that ian aged Union mar" living in the
eastern portion Of the county, had been
murdered a day or two previous to the
8th inst, (the date of the letter. simply
because he was a Union man; and that
the letter which brought information Of
this cold blooded murder" to Alexan-
dria, also brought friendly warning
to a wellknown Union man there to leave
the State he valued his life" A highly
respected citizen of Alexandria was in the
city yesterday direct from that town,
and he had heard nothing Of this "cold
blooded murder" nor of any Union men
who entertained fears for their safety,
nor does he believe that this letter to Gen
Cooper was signed by forty-four respect
able citizens of DeKalb county He re-
CARDS the whole thing as malicious trick
to get the loyal militia quartered upon
the quiet and peaceable citizens of his
county, and such it undoubtedly is.
Whenever some mean fellow gets offended
at the citizens of a county, he seeks his
revenge in trying to have the "loyal mill
til" inflicted upon them. If Gen. Cooper
could rise above he petty intrigues of
the political tricksters, he would investi'
gate and expose and punish these des-
picably mean wretches, whose highest
ambition is to involve better men than
themselves in trouble
