The Buffalo IndepeHdcRt notices lit
tie incident of recent occurrence in that
village, whic h is quite interesting as
an illustration of the effects of. severe
loyalty" upon one of the clergy. Ii
seems that a few Sabbaths ago Sun
day school was opened in Buffalo, and
that Federal soldier of Dem
ocratic views was assigned a
place rs teacher. The presiding
elder of that district, Reverend c,
W. SwARTz, became very much dissatis-
lied with the admission OF Demscrat
to the privileges ola religious institu-
tion, and attempted to revoke the ap'
poimtment He indited the following
mote To the teacher in question:
BUFFALO, W. Va, June Is, ~.
DEAR SIR:-Probably yOn are not
aware that we propose organizing our
Sabbath School with officers and teach
erS of whose loyalty there can be no
duubt.
took the liberty, Us General super
intendent nf the Sabbath Schools o. Buff
falo Circuit, W. Va, Conference NJ. h.
Church, Ia invite personally, before our
organization, those whom considered
proper persons TO act aS teachers.
Mrs. ), learned that you desired to
take charge of class, aud gave you
one, JOr last Sabbath, through courtesy,
a. YOU we're present with the eXpecta-
tipn of brcoming teacher, and as she
wa not much aquainted with the cltl-
cents of H., and having misplaced hst
of the names of several undOubted loyal
men which had left in her possession
She was at loss To know rhat persons
Ia select, aud hence for that day, she
felt almost compelled to ask you to take
charge of the class, which will hereafter
he Taught by loyal man or woman.
Respectfully, e. W. SwARTz.
=. S.-Nol knowing that l would
soon have the chance of personal in:
trrview regarding this matter, l avail
myself of the Use of pen and ink.
We have often heard that mixing
of politics with religion was csrtain to
iniure both. We don't think the mix
has had that effect in the case before
us. No matter how mean the political
views. they couldn't hurt that style Oi
religion. Ii is safe from contamination,
just as lrproSy is impervious to pollu-
tion. Filth is not readily defiled; cor,
ruptiOn is Incompatible.
The man who would indite the above
letter for the purpose indicated would
introduce n registration law into the
Kingdom of Heaven, and impose the
test oath" as condition of redemp-
tiOn. Furthermore the indications are
that he wonld steal, a habit, by the
way, which seems TO be in special favor
with high pressure "lOyalty." The In
dependent after fully ventilating the
whole affair addresses the reverend
gentleman as follows:
Now Bro. Swartz, if you are right
Won can vindicate SOur course, and fol
that purpose, we will give youa column
in the Independent. If you continue tO
lie about the loyalty of our citizens we
will soon give you full history of I'll
who participated in rObbing the corner
stone of our new Church; your right to
participate in such unlawful villainy
will probably be tested before the next
grand jury; you will then be taught
that loyalty consists in obeying the
laws of yOnr country, and not in fellow
shipping Wild the negro

Affair. IN Knnawha Csuaiy.

We referred few days ago to the
misfortunrs of loyalty" in Kanawha
county. We notice that the Kanawhs
Republican, which by the way is one of
the best and bOldest of our State pa
pers, still continues to lift the scales
from the eyes of the public and Lash
them from the hides of the "lOyaP lead
ers i'm that section. With the eXcep-
tirn of the fragrant sardine of the Ex-
ecntive mansion, We suppose no fish in
the Radical puddle has recently re-
ceiyed more effectnal scaling than has
been administered to Z. I. MOORE, of
Kanawha. Our readers will remember
that he is expected to be indicted ut the
next term of the Kanawha Circuit
Court, for the somewhat unusual Rad
ieal offence of forgery. We say "un-
usual" for the reason that Radi-
calism generally prefers the simpler vo-
cation of theft, to which line its exploits
have generally been confined. We
presume, however, that the amount and
character of the competition in that
peculiarly Radical occupation, were the
reasons which induced the Kanawha
patriot to seek new field of labor. He
despairrd of excelling in a profession
which was graeed by the exploits of
FrgGUsOH and FARNswoKTH. There is
no room in the upper stories, tor BORE
MAN is Governor. The grandest swell
OF the mob occupies the upper shelf,
aud like JUPITER on Olympus, there is
nobody sufficiently great or gifted to
share his enIiuence or even open shop
ia his neighborhoOd. Should MOORE
he convicted, We shall look for his
speed: pardon. His Difference TO the
powers that be entities him to this
cleinency.
Mr. Z. T. MOORE, whose rela-
tions with our neighbor of the Intel
Hgeaeer, appear to have always been of
the most intimate character, has at
tempted to make martyr of himself
an the score of his expected indictment
Tor forgery. He raises the cry of FUR
GUsoS nDder somewhat similar cir
cumstanees, and contends that he is the
victim of "a copperhead conspiracy to
breae him down. The '.eonspiracyD in
FURGusoS's case was pretty successful,
and it promises to be equally SO in the
present instance. The following are
some of the Republicans recent remarks
upon the case Of Dir. E. T, MooHE:

visited the cities of Augusta, Macon and
Columbus, Georgia; Montgomery and
Mobile, Alabama; New Orleans, Louisi-
ana; Galveston and Houston, Texas; re-
turning by way of st. Louis, Memphis,
Nashville and Louisville. Everywhere
he was received with open arms, and in

by equal liberalify. The total amount

The whipping Case az Fort Sedgwick
-Rarbarcus Punishment

The Omaha Republican of the 22d has
the details of the late outrage, at Fort
Sedgwick. We copy as follows:
A gentleman who was an eyewitness,
writes us an account, which is too
lengthy for us to publish in full, of
the barbarous punishment by tlOgging
inflicted by military official upon n
citizen at Fort Sedgwick, on the 18th
inst. A man named Hendricks, in a
state of great debility from loathsome
disease, who had arrived in that vicini-
ty few days before, from New York,
was induced by some soldiers, dressed
in citizens clothes, and who represent
ed themcelves to be citizens, to buy for
them q bottle. of whisky. The case
came to the knowledgs of one Lieutep-
ant Lantz, Of Company +, of the Thir-
tieth Infanty, who reported it to Breyet
Lieutenant Colonel 4. /. Dodge, COM
manding the regiment.
Colonel Dodge ordered Hendricks to
be arrested, and fogging of one hun
dreds lashes to be administered TO him.
Lieutenant Lantz took charge ofthe ex-
ecution of the order. Hendricks was
stripped and then fastened 20 q rough
cross which had been constructed and
placed upright in the ground. A pri-
vate soldier was then placed on each
side of him, each armed with plated
rope. Hendricks here sclemnly assert
ed that he did not know the men for
whom he bought to be soldiers. hut be-
lieved them to be citizens, as they re-
presented themselves to be. Lieuten-
ant Lantz ordered the punishment to
proceed, and after few blows (first one
of the soldiers and the other bringing
the knotted rope down with all his
might upon the quivering fiesh), the
blood poured down the body of the
victim in streams, and his flesh hung
down in shreds.. At length, spectators,
upon whom poor Hendricks blood had
spattered during the hogging, and who
closed their eyes and ears to shut out
the horrid sight and make themselves
deaf TO hispiercing cries of pain, appeal
ed to the Lieutenant to stop the punish
ment, and he did so, and Hendricks was
permitted to drag himself away as best
he could to the nearest sand hill, where
he wasfound an hour or two afterward
suffering the most intense agony of
body and spirit.

A SERIOUS AFFRAY-A MAN TERRIBLY
BEATEN.-As we were walking east on Sec
ond street yesterday evening, we noticed
quite crowd Of men and boys, coming
from an opposite direction, and as some
had bloody faces and soiled clothes, we
made inquiry as to what the matter was,
and learned that terrible fight had taken
place, near place known as Corner-pin, y
in which a man named Brandt was badly
beaten, and it is thought seriously injured,
The parties to the affair, we learn were
Il man named Lorentz, Charles Knuth,
Henry Shulky, Gotlieb Brown, Fred
Knuth, and Julius Gerkey.
Esquire James Kelley, who resides in the
vicinity, was mainly instrumental in Sc
curing the arrest of the parties named, and
their safe lodgment in prison. WepresumC
the preliminary examination of the case
will take place before Justice Kelley, but

"No LETTERS FOR NlGGERs."-Can it be
true that such language is used at the p o

and asked for a letter for her mother, and
the reply, says our informant was, there
are mo letters for niggers." We hope this
may not be true, for it don't seem right
that those who so love the imam and broth
