Gen. Buford one of the special Com.
missioners to investigate the Fort Phil
Kearney massacre, after full and very
complete investigation, says there is nc
necessity for an Indian war, and there
would be none if the Indians were pro-
tected from the rapacity and rascality oi
frontier settlers, whose interests are tc
bring on the war, and supply our armies
with subsistence at exorbitant prices. In
fact, the present war which is upon us is
nothing but raid upon the Treasury OF
the United States by the frontiersmen
and army contractors. He says the en-
ployees of the Union Pacific Railroad are
also advocates of war, because the trans
portation of troops and passengers would
put into the treasury of the company large
suns of money.

We publish elsewhere, in this paper, the
platform of principles adopted by The recent
democratic Judicial Convention. It's peru.
sal will satisfy the honest reader that the
leaven of copperheadism still turks in the
democratic lump, and that, in point of fact
there is as much treason af1oat among the
northern jeremiah Blacks of democracy Of
there is, or ever was, among the still unre-
pentant rebels of the South. The resolutions
resolve against every measure having for lis
object the keeping of leading rebels out III

and JEFF. Thompson, yield hearty support
We do not imagine, in view of the fact that
their former southern allies are walking alone,
that the country will suffer much from the
carrying out of this threat of the northern

Jefferson Davis has been dabbling in
Canadian politics already. In speech
made the other day he expresses his hope
that the British flag may always wave
along the lakes of our country, and that
Canada may forever remain a part of the
British empire. This means that Mr.
Davis ranges himself under the dominion
party, and aganat the annexationist..-
Considering that the political accounts of
the late leader of rebellion are not yet
settled in this country, the speech dis
plays as much bad taste as hatred to the
United States, to whose unparalleled ma.
ganimity he owes his neck to-day.

A Centenarian in Town.

Mr.. Geo. w. Labar, of Middle Smith
field, in this County, aged l04 years, paid
our town a visit, on Saturday last, for the
purpose of having his photograph taken.
George was born in the territory now CON-
prising this County, aud is now, at the
great age of lO4 years, as hale, hearty and
active on his feet as are most men at fifty.
He still labors vigorously, and during the
Spring was engaged in getting out ties
for the Railroad Company and in peeling
bark, often walking three, four and five
miles to his work in the morning, and
the same distance to his home again when
his days work, which is real days work
always, was done. When he is inclined
to enjoy the sport of fishing, which he
frequently does, he no more minds laying
along the creek all night, and watching
his hooks, than does any other young dis
ciple of the quaint old /" Isaac" Only
last week he INDUCED in a night fish on
Brodhead's creek. An anecdote, showing
the spirit Of the man, is told of George
which will bear repeating. He has q
brother residing in Canada, who has
reached the ripe old age of 81 years
Last Summer the brother paid George
visit, and, as token of love for him
brought with him a splendid cane; but
when he attempted to present it George
coolly told him that he had mouse for the
article himself, and as the brother appear.
cd to need it he had better keep it for
himself. The worst thing that can be
said of George is, that he will persist in
voting for the nominees of the sham De-
mocracy. If he would only get out of
this notion, we think his happiness would
even be in advance of his years. Wheth
er he does or not, however, he has our
best wishes for long continued life Of
uninterrupted happiness and prosperity
In all his long life George has never been
sick, and never took dose of medicine.

of the canal. As.this threat did not effect
the desired purpose, he proceeded to carry

flood, and waded out until the chilly water
reached over his shoulders. 1t will be re-
membered that the evening on which this
occurred, was none of the warmest. Re-

Stroling little way into the desert, about

preached the women left the nearest en-
campments and raised shrill cries in well

in close proximity, which would have
proved alarming to most European young
ladies. The cradle was lined with Arab
carpets, on which reclined a girl dressed in

over all a huge striped rug of

to glance at me as raised my hat in salu-
tation of the bride; but she appeared to
take far greater pleasure in the musketry
of her Bedouin followers, who fired about
her bower as if it had been French fort
ress. Presently there issued from the gate
OF Laghouafe train of Arab women,
dancing, clapping their hands and making
shrill cries as like as human voices possibly
could be to the whinny of mare. Then
the camel was stopped, the bride alighted,
embraced few of the women, Joined the
procession, and followed by the camel, all
proceeded to the mud hut in which Fatina
was to share for eyermore the love of an
Arab with two other ladies. But en- route
the Bedouins chased about the procession
at full gallop, firing their guns, while at the
top speed; and when the bridal party had
passed into the mud mansion, they followed
and could hear the fen de joie repeated

widow lady, seventy-one years old, and
sister of the photographer Worcester
possessed of some means and supposed to
have had considerable money on hand at
the time was entered through the cellar
window. Mrs. Loomis lived entirely alone,
and had retired, but was not yet asleep,
when she heard noise in the kitchen,
and went to see what it was. AS she
onened the door she was confronted by
a man. who Immediately extinguished
the light and seized the old lady in a
violent manner and threw her upon the
floor. The man jumped upon her and
heat her in a savage manner for some time,
when she appealed to him to know how she
had ever offended or wronged him, and
asked him what he wanted. He replied
that he wanted money, and money he
would have. She told him she had none,
and he seems to have taken her statement
forrtruth, for, after extortiDg promise
that she would give no alarm till morning,
and volunteering false name and the in
formation that he had been hired by three
men from Greensboro to do the deed of
rohhery. and that they waited outside, he
made of. The old lady soon after gave the
alarm! and a search was made, when the
tracks of boots were found across plowed
field to the house of Chester Annis, whose
boots were found bloody. He was arrested
and locked up.
