Dear Journal AS the recent unmerited
and unwarranted arrest of Major VIM. II.
McCardle, editor of the Daily Times of
this city, is of material interest to the
press Of our down-troden land, I have con-
Guided to place at your disposal full state
ment of the affair
Major McCardle was gallant soldier
under the "Southern Cross" and when
the war terminated was left, as most of us,
without anything save the pure and chival-
rous principles that have immemorially
made enviable and noble the men of the
South. Previous to the war and for many
years he had occupied an editorial chair,
and consequently very naturally returned
at the first suitable opportunity to his old
accustomed seat. Upon taking charge of
the Times he announced, as his Southern
conscience dictated, that his course would
be candidly, fearlessly and impartially de-
voted to the interests of the South-the
support of justice-the defending of iber-
ty and the upholding of those acts and
n easures that were calculated to restore
Thu once great aud happy Union to the
position it occupied in the halcyon days
of yore. He furthermore stated that he
would not hesitate to stab tyranny
whenever it raised it's hideous head
in a threatening manner above the
rights of American citizens, and most
faithfully and bravely did he fulfill his
promises up to the time the hand of OPP
preston stayed his pen and incarcerated
him in dirty, filthy prison. But to the
cause of his arrest. For some months the
Major has been ventilating the arbitrary
acrs Of Maj. Gen. Ord, and in doing so saw
tit to use language of a severe and personal
nature. In doing this he had but done
what other and many editors in this dis
Wilmington journal. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1844-1895, 1867-11-29

Since the editor of this paper has been
an involuntary recipient of the hospitality
of General Ord-extended to him through
the medium of q gentleman of the ''shOu-
der strap persuasion" and file Of bIUe-
coated followers-he has received more eX-
pressions of personal kindness and sym
pathy than he had right to expect. No.:
alone have old friends-friends of the
Lang Syne stepped forward promptly
to tender the helping hand but many with
whom he is personally unacquainted, have
frightened his cell with offers of sympathy
and even more substantial assistance.
It is only the dark hour of adversely that
attracts kindly utterances and, as the sun
beam seems brighter when shining through
the rift of the storm, SO do they gladden.
and make bright the gloom of the prison
er's cell To one and all, Major McCardle
desires to return his heartfelt thanks for
every expression of sympathy, and for
every thoughtful act of kindness which has
gone so far to mitigate the rigor of prison
life. 1t is hoped that not many days will
pass before his thanks can be rendered in
person.
1t is due to the officers in charge of
Major McCardle to say, that he has re-
ce1ved from them every consideration the
nature of their duties would permit. He
has no complaint to make with reference to
his treatment
His friends will not need to be assured
that imprisonment has effected no change
in his sentiments, nor disturbed his equa-
nimity in any degree. He bears his fate,
as q gentleman should, patiently and cheer
fully.-Vicksburg Daily Times.

Shot by Soldiers.

Dear Journal Il have just learned some
particulars of circumstance which are not
calculated to cause very pleasant refec-
tons.
It appears that to-day a squad of .. s.
soldiers, in search of young man by the
name of Gray, who was charged with hay
ing committed some offense, the nature of
whicA 7 did not learn, had concealed them
selves near the house of his father. An
other young man by the name of Tooten
had gone to Mr.. Gray's to purchase corn !;
and when he had left the house and pro-
ceeded short distance, these soldiers sud
denly appeared from behind an clubhouse
and ordered him to malt. The poor fellow
was so frightened that he attempted to run
off !; whereupon they fired upon him. One
ball took effect in his leg, causing serious
and painful wound, though not injuring
the bones.
After he was down, one of these valiant
soldiers approached within fifteen feet and
fred upon him, but luckily missed him.
Mr.. Tooten is said TO be an industrious,
harmless young man, living at Lenoir In
stitute, near which place this affair occur

a Rare CliRncC,

MIR. Britton, proprietor of the Lincoln
Courier, having determined to dispose of
his Printing Establishment, has adopted
the following plan:
"Three hundred envelopes, containing slips of
equal size in each, and in one Of the envelopes
the prize will be inserted. in the presence of a
committee Of gentlemen, who will thoroughly
mix the envelopes and cause them to be drawn to
each number, until the whole withdrawn,
when the envelopes will be opened and the one
containing the prize will be ascertained, and the
fortunate number will be credited with the prize.
The chances are five dollars each. The
day liked upon is the 10th of December.
The well-known character of the gentleman
is sufficient guarantee that the whole tran
saction will be conducted upon fair and
legitimate principles. This is a good
chance for some industrious typo, and many
will avail themselves of it.

The Radical Programme.

The New York Times says that during the
present session Of Congress " a most siren
uous and determined effort will be made to
make RddicoLiSna the corner stone of the
Republican party-to base it upon tie abso-
Ie'te E'oltttcoI and social equality Of tie black
and echite races in ecery State and throughout
The Caliom-an equality to be asserted as
national principle and maintained by the
national authority and power" and that
unless this is done, the threat is, "Me party
shall be broken in tl0O." The Times ''infers
from the elections OF the last few months
that tie people Of the United States are mol yet
prepared TO accept MiS as q national principle,
and H0H q ca1eOaSS conducted on Mat basis ,ciA

OUIe WASHING TON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10, 1867.
To tie JOuyWM TO the more intelligent
and better informed of the people of the
North. the end of national disaster seems
to be approaching. It is the universal
Judgment of the champions of constitu
tional law who have recently exchanged
opinions here, that the restoration to power
of the Democratic party will speedily bring
about fraternal union and lasting peace.
During the past six years Of misfortune,
this great national organization has main
tanned its discipline and it's principles in
the face of constant defeat and attempted
intimidation. There was a time when
there was not Democratic Legislature,
nor q Democratic Governor in a single
State; but now, during the past year,
Democratic State officers have been elected
in Connecticut, Maryland, New York, Penn.
sylvania, California, and in the Territory
of Montana We have the Legislature in
New Jersey and Ohio, and even in bleed
ing Kansas negro suffrage has been de-
feated. In the popular vote gain has
been made of fully three hundred thou
sand.
These results sufficiently indicate the
purposes of the Democratic party to ad
here with unyielding tenacity to It's ancient
rule of faith and practice. When Henry
~, surnamed Bolingbroke, was supposed
to be dead, Prince Henry removed the
Crown out Of the room. On his father be-
coming sensible again, he complained of
the act, and said, calais, fair son!whatright
have you to the Crown when you know your
father has none?' "My iege," answered
the Prince, "with your sword you won it,
and with the sword will keep it. With
the sword our fathers won the crown of
Liberty, and with the sword the great
Democratic party will keep it. To is intent

ton are welcome to such comfort. In con-
nection with the superstition that Congress
may resolve to impeach the President, and
pass bill suspending him from his Official
functions during trial, this arrangement for
Sherman 60 have command of the Army
ought to afford Congress much consola-
ton.
The trial of Jefferson Davis may posi-
bly, take place at the November term of the
Circuit Court at Richmond, but it is among
the least of probabilities. Chief Justice
Chase will go to Richmond, but he cannot
and will not remain. His Learned broth
err" Judge Underwood, and a mixed jury
of white and black, might like the honor of
making rulings and finding verdict, but
| it is fair to presume that it will be denied
them. So far as honor is concerned, the
United States is afraid of coming out Sec
ond best In addition to this, the opinion
| is widespread that no possible good could
come from the trial, either to the State or
| the prisoner.
We are looking with anxiety for your
election news of to-day. 1t is sincerely
hoped that white men enough will be elect
ed to control the Convention and that SO
far as North Carolina is concerned, Radical
ism will be disappointed in getting the
sixty eight electoral votes it counts upon
under tho Reconstruction Bill. 4 nice

to shine in the Newgate Calendar, OF in the
police records of the Tombs.

CROMWELL.
OUR WASHINGTON C0RREsPONDE1G1

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 90 1867.
TO the Observation-Disclosures multiply for
the belief that the earthly career of Tnud-
deus Stevens will soon terminate. From
his conversation on this subject it is evil
/ dent that his mind has been, and now is,
exclusively occupied with political affairs,
Some of his remarks almost force the in
ference that he is not firm believer in a
future existence-if such an inference is a
true one it fully accounts for many of lis
illusions After Cardinal Wolsey had fall
en- under the displeasure of Henry VIII,
and while he was dying at Leicester, in
1900, he remarked that, 80 If he had served
his God as diligently as he had served his
his grey hairs. Thaddeus Stevens has
served Radicalism as diligently" as VOL
sey served his King-he may indulge in
the same bitter reflections. His death will
be an event in history. His bold and busy
brain has created the present status Of the
Radical party, and his iron-will has made
an impression upon the country which will
be felt for long years to come. 1t has been
his genius which has prompted from eau
tious men many reference to the fate of
Charles l., whose royal authority was an
initiated at Whitehall, Jan. 80, ID. Tor
attempting to enforce the same Cespotic
powers which the Tudors had used, and
for breaking into fragments the British
the Constitution" He lost his head The
people have beheaded Radicalism for the
same crime. Individuals are fortunate in
having escaped thus far personal punish
ment. Mr.. Stevens hates terribly to die.
1t must be an awful feeling, especially for
an old man. A man who feels thus is not
satisfied with his past life. When Gran
mer was at the stake, during the reign of
Mary L, for having signed recantation
of his opinions, he held his right hand in
the flames till it was consumed, exclaiming
all the while, go, THIS UNWORTHY HAND! !"
Thaddeus Stevens will never sign a recan-
tation of his opinions, but he may we'll fix
his dying gaze upon the hand that penned
the strongest features of the Reconstruct
ton Bill and repeat Cranmer's exclamation
as he passes into eternity. But, to change
the subject, there will be full quorom of
Congress tomorrow. It is very doubtful
if any legislation will be attempted. But
nine days remain before the regular ses-
sion commences. Time is not afforded for
any real work. An immense amount of
caucusing is going on among the Radicals
They are much cast down, and walk our
streets looking as wretched as May Flower
Irf OF aIo
ded on the subject of impeachment. In
my Judgment, the report of the Committee
will be read and the whole subject laid on
the table. 1t is vastly unpopular just now,
and members who would like a reelection
do not wish to touch it.
General Sherman will be here on the LIST
of December, for the purpose, it is under
stood, of taking command Of the Army. Gen.
Grant will continue his duties as Secretary
of War. Perhaps this is another indication
that Grant is good Radical. The opposi-

Fruits of Radicalisln.

The Radical candidates, Collins, (white,,
Haynes, johnson and Thompson, (color
ed), in Marion District, South Carolina,
have been unanimously elected. We have
been reliably informed that the District
Judge remarked the day of the election,
that it would be his painful duty to try
Collins next week for coeO-stealing. We
suppose this Constitutional tinker will en-
deavor to have his case continued with a
view of legitimatizing such conduct. ''To
what base uses" have honorable posi-
tons been converted.
