years of age, was shot at Plank road and Hart
creek by lad named John Nolen. 1t appears
that Gallagher was driving a cart at the time,

Nolen. when he fired, the shot taking effect in
the arm and side OF Galaeh her. Nolen then took
Gallagher's cart and drove it to a brick yard,
where he left it. He then ran Off and up to this
morning had not been captured.

M1RYL1ND.

John Il. Kenly and L. Parkin Scott were
leading Wings together in Baltimore years ago.
Kenly was once the Wing candidate for Con-
gress, but beaten by the Democratic prepOn-
derance in that city. Scott held high place
in the confidence of his party, and 1--WE belioye)
at least one high office.
The year 1861 was signalized by new issue,
which dwarfed old ones. Secession distracted
Maryland Kenly took the side of the Union,
and volunteered in its defense; Scott became
an envenOmed but, we believe, not fighting
Rebel. Kenly, commanding Maryland regl-
ment, was bounced upon and crushed at Front
Royal by Stonewall Jackson, who had seven
or eight men TO his one. but Kenly fought
gallantly to the last, and was severely
wounded. His command was nearly destroyed;
but his fight probably saved Gen. Banks's army
from similar fate
Kenly and Scott were rival candidates for
Justice of the Supreme Court in Baltimore on
Wednesday, with the following result:
Kenly GepublicanJ 1876 Scott, Democracy 1920
Majority for the Rebel.......l33I3.
Such is the present preference of Baltimore
between one who fought CALAMITY to preserve
the Union and one who did his best to destroy
it. Such is the natural and necessary effect
throughout the South of a restoration which
supprcsses and brushes the Blacks.

Chicf-Justice Chase, the whole country will
gladly hear. has given notice that he will pre-
side at the trial of jefferson Davis, provided
the parties will consent to bring it on Nov. 18th
instead of Nov. 27th-the latter being the day
specified in Dayiss bail-bOnd for his appear
ance to answer to the Indictment found against
him. As the Chief-Justice is to preside in the
Supreme Court, which commences its annual
session on the first Monday in December his
request is reasonable and, we presume, will be
acceded to. So we may consider it settled that
the trial will commence on the 18th pTOx., and
that the ChiefJustico will preside.
May we not now hope that the Attorney
General will lead the prosecution This is no
petty larceny matter. 1t were sheer aflectatiOn
to mistake it as other than a great State trial
one destined to be cited as a precedent-to
be studied and commented on through many
years. The questions involved are those OF
public and constitutional law-there are no
facts in dispute, and the examination of wit
nesses need not occupy two hours. We judge,
ALSO that the impanneling of the jury need ex-
cite little interest, since the issue must depend
on the law of the case as ruled by the Court.
That Jefferson Davis levied war against the
United States is as incOntcstable fact as that
Andrew johnson is now President or Salmon
=. Chase Clief-Justice; we cannot suppose
that eminent lawyers will hesitate to admit it..
And as the only grave questions involved are
questions of law, it would seem plain that the
law on which n conviction is demanded should
be prOpOunded and set forth by the highest
law officer of the Governmental effect by the
Government itself.
Sixty years have elapsed since the only great
State Trial in our Federal hIstOry-that of
Aaron Burr, late Vice president of the United
States, also for treason Davis has not filled
quite so lofty station, having been L. S..
Senator and Secretary of War; but then he
was the President of a COnfederaCy which
for four years divided and defed the whole
power of the Union. Then the Chief-Justice
was from the South, the accused from the
North now the positions are reversed; but it
is notable that Richmond is the scene of both
trials
Judge Underwood would have tried the case
with perfect upTightness and judicial imparti-
atty; yet it is filter that the Chief-Justice
should preside. And the pTOprieties dictate as
plainly that the Acknowledgement should
lead the prosecution. Let it be borne in mind
that the American People are virtually the
plaintiff in this case, and that the civilized
world will note its progress and award the
ultimate verdict.

A rather mysterious dispatch from Florence
was received in this city yesterday afternoon,
stating that the latest news was glorious fof
the cause of Italy, but that the Italian Cow
eminent deemed it best TO suppress the details
for the present. 1t was, of course, to be pre-
sumed that the news referred to the move
ments of Garibaldi, although the recent pro-
ceedings of the Italian Government almost ex-
cluded the possibility that the news could bc
glorious for Italy. A later dispatch states that
Garibaldi, after safely landing on the main land
of Italy, has reached FolignO, in the Province
of Umbria, when he was discovered and for
hidden by the Government to proceed any fur
ther, and that since nothing has been heard Of
his movements or whereabouts. The undauDted
and heroic conduct of Garibaldi will gain for
him fresh admiration, and will not remain
without influence upon the future OF the Ro-
man question; but for the present, we have
little or no faith in the possibility Of any sue
cess. France keeps her feet and army ready
for an immediate intervention; and the Italian
Government shows not the least indication OF
change of its submissive policy. These tw1
great obstacles the Party of Action Is hardly
at present strong enough to overcome.

Republicans who glory in their party and de-
light to honor the men who have served ts
mission will not fail to notice the bitter and
malignant attacks which certain papers calling
themselves Republican bestow upon Mr. Chase.
We do not speak of the folly of assailing men
who deserve our confidence, and who may La
called upon to lead our cause. We can UNDER
stand how Republicans should differ as to tho
merits of respective candidates. These prefer
ences should be considered temporarily, frankly;
so that when the nominations are made we may
act tremendously, and present an even front
We have our choice-other friends demur. We
expect to acquiesce if they succeed-just as we
expect them to acquiesce if we succeed-feeI-
ing that we all labor for the end that is BEST
This spirit seems to prevail in reference to
every candidate but Mr. Chase. A littlesaction
has set upon him, to hunt him down, to SANDER
him, to misrepresent his principles, doubt bis
loyalty, his courage, even his personal integ-
rity Can Republicans expect to strengthen the
party by destroying its oldest, ablest, and most
experienced leaders No such attacks are made
upon Gen. Grant, or Gen. Sheridan, or Gen.
Butler, or Gen. Thomas, or Gen. Sickles, or Gen.
Logan, among prospective military candidates,
nor upon any of the twenty men in civil life who
are also mentioned. Mr.. Chase alone is ex-
cepted. His friends will only be drawn closer
to him by these cOwardly assaults.

THE ISSUE.

Let no voter in our pending Elections ignore
the fact that the Republicans are now doing
their best to organize the Southern States on
truly democratic basis, and that the eXRebels
of those States, backed by the CoppeTheads of
the North, are doing their very utmost to
impede and prevent Reconstruction, and thus
protract indefinitely the Military rule which
they affect to find so harsh, despotic, degrad-
ing. &c If the Republicans succeed all the
Military machinery, Frcedmens Bureau, &c,
will be swept away as a mere sCaifOding, and
the States restored to self-gOyernment. includ-
ing representation in Congress, within the next
few months. This is what Congress has pro-
vided for-what the Republicans, North and
South are now struggling for. Every Republi
can vote is cast for Immediate Reconstruction.
The Conservatives" South and the Copper
head Democrats" North are resisting it with
all their might. They will have an aristocratc
restoration which will place the loyal majority
under the feet of the Rebel minority, or they
will have no restoration at all. Hence, in
Louisiana and Alabama, they refused in con-
cert to vote. hoping thus to defeat the holding
of a Convention but they failed. In Virginia,
they have voted-nearly or quite every one of
them 4" No Convention" There is a considera-
bic White majority of registered electors in
Virginia, but nine-tenths of them vote "NO
Convention" with delegates to match, hoping
to keep their State indefinitely under Military
rule. Instead of acceding to Andrew Johnson's
platform in his better days, that loyal men,
"White OF Black, shall rule this country" or
our substitute, which would let every man who
is nolc loyal vote, though he were formerly a
Rebel they insist that all Whites shall vote
and all Blacks be dsfranchised. And that insures
Rebel prepOnderance in every Southern State,
as is plainly shown in Maryland and Tennessee.
Patriots who would see our long strife ended,
all the States back in their proper places in
the Union, and the whole land quiet, busy and
prOsperOusy pursuing the arts of Peace!
Judge between us. Conservatism" at the
South means the perpetuation of inequality,
hatred and Observation-Disclosures means inn

all. Vote your choice between thcmi

1t is again reported that Louis Napoleon has
proposed to the Governments of Europe a
European Congress for the settlement of the
Roman Question. The Italian people may
Justly ask whether the Roman Question Con-
Germs foreign powers any more than the French
Revolution of 1S4S, and the elevation of Louis
Napoleon to the throne. A Congress for the
settlement of the French Question in 1913 or
1852 would have been denounced in the
strongest terms by the same man who now
demands the settlement of a question purely
Italian, by conference Of foreigners.
