From shs Dayton Da5y Journal, June l.
Friday evening A.nily II Ger.ans. sonsistirg Of
a man his ite and tAree children, evidently in very
poor circumstances, arrived hers On the c. "
train enrou.e for Cncinnski which pace they had
secured transportation from Nsx York As the train
failed to connec. it'll the fprenoon train on tie c. H.
4 d. road the AMY obliged TO lay over here for
the evening traia.
For a xEiie tie poor family r.m,ned On the Plat
FORM IN I'll sctre one invited them into tie ladies
room, and be seated Tho pso1le sesnsd 10 shrink
from observation, and were grouped together IN one
corner Of OF the roam. The woman was hoidinE an
infa Mt in her arms and LADY who happened TO pass
close TO her noticed that Il looked ike corpse and
she could speak the German language, she asked
the woman wha, was the matter with her child At
tf. question tire poor burst into nncontroiia
lie lauentation declaring that her child was dead.
As soon as the grief stricken mother could partial
ly control herself she informed tie lady that they
were very peor thai shey had just means ongh to
get New York and purchase second class ticket to
Cmcncinnati, where they had friends: that they had
mouey TO purchase feed, ana were afraid to ask
ANYBODY for something and that they had saf
tered in silence xitlou, norsct of food for them
selves or children the time they left Nav York
until they reached this city 40
Abou, three hours before they reached here their
oabe-a child about year od-died from starvation
And that poor, starving mother carried her dead
child upon her BOSOM hoping reach their friends in
Cincinnati before they should all be starved.
The countenances Of the man and wife bore painful
evidence of the progress of starvation, and their
complaining children looked little better than the corpse
little sufferer that had just passed through the
gate of deaf to the land OF peaiy! -
The momenr the terrible condition of this poor
family made known, they found friends in every
body around them. 1he mother instantly re
liered Of her dead babe and while messenger was
dispa tched for undertaken, the Surviving members
of the sorrowing family taken 10 the waiting
in the Depot and given all that they could eat
Bystanders tell that the in the depot, when
the suffering mother gave vent TO her pent up grief
was one of the most affecting and narrowing they
witnessed. Every affected to tears.
Mr.. Richard Lane, inhrmary Director took charge
OF the interment Of the child and Mr.. Snyder, the
clever Baggage Master, collected some $50 tom by.
s,anders and presented it to the poor who wa,
utterly overw heImed with this unlocked Tor genera
sity.
The child was buried yesterday afternoon. and the
bereaved family, after being made comfortable as
possible sent by the evening train TO tlieiI
friends in Cincinnati A word about their situation
at any point the route would have secured these
suffering people all the food they desired but they
were actually diffden among strangers that they
have made their situation known asked for food.

From the Madison Courier. !

From sympatalzer to an apoloeist is
short step; from an apelogist to defen-
der is shorter one The central organ
of the Democracy has taken the first one
1t pleads the scarcity of provisions in
the rebel States in excuse for starving
the Union prisoners Gen Sherman de
monst'atcd the falsity of this plea, for
he drew the most of his support from the
country he passed over in his great march
from Atlanta to the sea and back. But,
admitting (Which we do not do) for the
argument that the rebels had not sufii
cient substance to feed their prisoners,
would that Justify starving them? The
rebels themselves refute this plea in their
behalf made by the Indiana Democratic
organ. When the rebels were hedged in
by the matchless strategy of Grant and
Sherman, they had more than ten thous-
and prisoners at Salisbury, n. c., where
they were exposed to the inclemency of
| the winter, and the sultry sun of summer,
| without shade, without a sufficient sup.
| ply Of water, without fuel and blankets,
| and so short Of subsistence that they
| died of hunger by thousands; hundreds
| of them lost their feet by the rot, more
| became idiots. and numbers became fran
/ tic and rushed TO the dead line to be
/ there shot by the rebel sentinels When
| Sherman had enveloped the rebels with
his troops they sent these prisoners to
Wilmington, North Carolina. and surren-
dered them, alleging that they could hot
! feed them. Now could not they have
done that before starving and shooting
/ SO many of the unfortunates: In sur
rendering them because they could no
longer feed them, did they not in effect
say that they had been abe to subsist
them until the time they were sent into
/ the Union lines? This is not all The
/ fact that fuel and water is abundant in
! North Carolina, that wood to build shell
tiers is plenty. is not disputed. Why
/ we're these neces saries for the comfort of
the prisoners not supplied? The Demo
/ cratic central organ afirns also that JEFF

offered to exchange prisoners This is
only partially true: The rebel offer to
exchange Was for white soldiers only-
they positively refused to exchange any
colored soldiers they captured The
charge that Mr. Lincoln refused fair
cartel. is a. ,fonl calumny upon the char
scter Of that humane and christian man.
This is not the beginning: this charge of
refusing to exchange prisoners on the
part of Lincofn's ADMINISTRATION was
whispered-they dared not make the
charge openly-daring the last canvass

BALTIMORE. newspaper correspondent,
writing from Baltimore, thus speaks of that
city:
In politics Baltimore is sound to the core
Radicalism has no longer vestige Of its former
il-gotten influence within her borders. The
sound common sense and enlightened hum anity
of her people revolt from the monstrous and
diabolical utterances of Stevens, Phillips and
Ben Butler The spirit of the old Maryland
Line, which proved itself so often and so nobly
on many battlefield Of the revolution, yet
animates a large majority of the Baltimoreans.
They love the Union and the constitution, and
revere the memory of Washington, Marshall
Madison, Carroll, Harper, Pinckney, and the
whole host of great and good men who mould
ed our republican institutions. They do not
pretend to be wiser or better than their neigh
bors; they do not affect to be Puritans, either
in morals or religion. They extend an open
hand to the German and the Brlton, the French
man and the Spaniard, the Northerner and the
Southerner, the Catholic and the Protestant.
In fine, they conduct themselves precisely as
all we-regulated American communities did
for eighty years before the late rebellion
They stand upon the ancient ways and take
pleasure therein, and find their reward III an
apparently unlimited prosperity and growth
and the good wishes Of all true patriots.

A startling case of swindling has just come
to light at Kingston, New York. The perpe-
traitor is Jonathan H. Hasbrouck, president Of
the First National Bank, and leader of fash
ionable society in Kingston where his family
have been distinguished for reckless eZtrava-
gance and display. The directors Of the bank
lately made the discovery that Hasbrouck had
embezzled SOL 900 of the bank funds some
time last May.

GEN, BEAUREGARD. A few evenings ago a

GEN. BEAUREGARD. "A few evenings ago a
marty of Southern gentlemen gave dinner to
Gen. Beauregard at the New York Hotel. In
the course of his remarks on the occasion, the
General stated that he had received tempting
offers from English capitalists to take up his
residence in England, as superintendent OF ex-
tensive engineering works in that country, but
he had concluded, upon calmly surveying the
different Governments Oft the world, their status
and their inherent strength, that this country
nossessed the most stable Government Of any
existing on the face Of the earth, and that, for
his part, he was determined to spend his life
under the flag of the Government that was the
most stable and least liable to disorganization.
It was nothing short of sheer nonsense TO talk
of another rebellion. If they wanted to raise
one they could not 1t was utterly impossible
and will be impossible tor them to do SO for the
next generation. Before the war he was III
favor of State sovereignty, but he had had that
dogma essentially whipped out Of him, and
thought that all should now bend their ener
gies towards again building up our Union to
that magnificent status among the nations OF
the world to which its destiny evidently points.
In conclusion, he would urge them to give the
Government their united support in every
manner, making it their pride to add lustre to
the common glory OF a united peop!e.-N. Z.
