therefore, when we surrendered
in 1865 We surrendered under tho
the protection of this resolution,
which had not been altered by the
events and changes Of as mighty

had ever seen. Now, there is not
an example in history in which
two parties at war bave kept open
standing set Of terms upon which
the war is to be ended 4 y
When We surrendered our armiet

TcoMMuN1cArED.1

MEssRs. EDlToRs.-In your issue
of-May 8 1867, it is stated that
Policeman Powers, happening in
Winchester on Tuesday, (May q,
1867, on business, chanced to got
his eye on one John Blosser, who,
a few days before, had perpetrated
a theft in Strother's barber shop:
and arrested him, after a race
through the woods, and brought
him TO this city aud lodged him in
Jail.
After tho above was written Mr..
Powers called and desired you to
publisha a statement to the following
etfcct-"That on yesterday MORN
ling, before he was up, and without
any notification to him as 70 their
intended action, the Sheriff, and
Constable Huber took the above
mentioned prisoner from the Jail
and had him examined boforc Jus-
tice Shaw, resulting in his dis,
charge from custody-Powers not
even being sent for to give his inn
portant testimony, and knowing
nothing of these proceedings until
all was over, and being thus left in
the lurch for several dollars fees,
and expenses for assistance paid
out of his own pocket. He says he
thinks this poor encouragement
for the pursuit and. apprehension
of rogues and criminals"
1t would seem that Mr.. Powers
desires to cast reflections upon the
Sheriff and Ganatahla and perhaps
myself. The facts are these: on
Monday morning, May 6, 1860
Albert Shredder came before me
and fled an affidavit tor the arrest
of Blosser for stealing Mr.. Charles
Mumaugb's over coat; and on the
9Th l issued warrant and Blosser
was arrested on the warrant and
brought before me for trial.
On the samo day two other aft.
davits were filed before me by AL.
bert Shredder and warrants were
issued, on each of which he was ar.
rested.
He was tried before me on the
9Th, in each case, (there being three
cases. and required by me to enter
into a recognizance, in each case
in the sum ofone hundred dollars
which he failed to do, and thereup
ON issued a mitlimus in each cas'
aud he was committed to the Jail o
the county, and Mr. Powers is no
correct in saying Blosser was dis
charged. 1t is true Mr.. Power
was not q witness before me, for
f was not directed to subpoena him
nor did | know that he was an i'm
portant witness in the case.
The Constable acted under tn
+. warrant issued by me, and was ac
, companied by the Shcriff as assist
: ant when Blosser was brought int
} Court.
IfMr. Powers has any complain
against the Sheriff he is able to an
swer for himself.

There was quite crcwd on the

The Court then discharged Da.
Wis, who was Immediately served
with a warrant on the indictment
for treason, and taken into custody
by the United States Marshal.
The case was then brought TO the
attention Of the court, who fixed
the trial for the next term.
Remarks were made by Mcssrs
|OConor, Evarts and Chandler in
reference to the amount Of bail and
character OF tho bondmen. The
Court fixed the bail at one hundred
thousand dollars, to 90 given by
twenty different persons, half Of
the amount by residents OF this ju-
dtclaI district, and the other halt by
residents of the United States.
Judge Underwood paid a high
compliment to General Burton for
the humane manner in which he
treated Davis while a prisoner. -
He also said he had received a let
ter from Chief Justice Chase, who
would be present at the next term
Of court, which will convene on the
25lh inst.
When the announcement wat
made by the court Of its intention
10 admit the prisoner to bail, ther,
was no demonstration, but all pres
cnt were evidently pleased will
the result.
When tho Court called for thos,
intending TO 90 bail, Horace Gree
Icy, who was present all the while
rose amid loud murmurs of salts
faction by all present, and walkeC
around 10 where Davis was sitting
with his counsel, shook hands will
him and anDQuueed himself as on,

From the Western Star.
OcmOcratic Nonsense.

Democrats contend that the result
of adopting the pending amend.
menl to the Constitution Of Ohio
will be to place tho negro and the
white man on a social equality.
No greater nonsense was ever en-,
tertained Because tho honest man
and the dishonert man vote at the
same polls does it follow that the
two are placed on u social equNityY
Does II follow that the gentleman
must invite the blackleg to his par.
lor or to his tableY Certainly not,
And look at the matter from. tho
Democratic stand point--even ad..
mitting that tho negro stands as
low in the scale OF respectability us
the blackleg--eyen taking this
brutish view of the subject, we
wdNld ask any honest Democrat in
what way ho will be reduced to the
level Of either moroly because both
vote2 The blacklcg votes now, but
the Democrat is not compelled TO
invite him into his family circle.
The question OF social equality is
not involvcds There will be social
distinctions 80 long as there are
honest and dishonest people, coarse
aud refined, good aud bad--and
these distinctions will not in any
way be effected by nero voting,
But ii il were question affecting
the social relations of Democrats
and negroes--ifthe participation in
voting by both classes would bring
them both to u social equality--it
this were the case MS Democrats
contend, then we think Democrats
would not be alone in protesting
against it, for while they would
object to having negroes brought
up to their status the negroes would
decidedly object to being brought
down to u level with copperheads,
So that in that case there would be
mutual dissatisfaction.
But II is not social question
II is a proposition to do justice. to
carry out thcgenuine old, fashioned
Democratic principles as annouu,
iced In the Declaration Of Indopen,
dcnce, and the great Union party
is going to carry IL through.
