DEATH OF JUDGE WILMoT.-David
Wilmot, representative in Congress from
the twelfth district, from 1874 to 1852,
died at his home in Towanda, Pa, Mon
day, from a nervous prostration under
which he had suffered for years. He was
born in Wayne county in 1914, bred a
lawyer, and in early life followed the
democratic party's fortunes. When the
republican party was formed he joined
| it, and was ever after an earnest worker
for it. He is chiefly known for the Viii.
mot proviso, introduced under Polk, in
Mexican peace negotiations. From 1861
to 1868 he was republican member Of
the Senate. At the time of his death he
was judge of the court of claims.

Gen. Washburn's Speech.

On assuming the duties of President
of the Union State Convention at Rut-
land, last week, Gen. p. 7. WAsHBURN
of Woodstock, addressed the convention
as follows:
GENTLEMEN: Two weeks ago an earn
est, devout clergyman Of Woodstock
prayed thus: "Oh, Lord, wilt Thou re-
member him whom we are compelled to
call our Pres. dent, and either cause that
the evil spirit by which he is controlled
be exercised or that he be elected from
his seat" The process of exercising that
evil spirit has been tried and failed, and
nothing now remains except to hope that
the remaining part of the prayer be full
filled and the seat vacated. For the pur-
pose of aiding and securing the advan-
tages which were gained by the sacrifices
of men and money made for their attain
ment, now in hazard of being lost through
til, treachery to his party and to his
principles of him who holds the executive
chair, and of making effective provision
that such treachery shall not be repeated,
the people of Vermont have assembled
here by their delegates. / trust that
their action may be rendered effective by
the selection of gentlemen as delegates
to the National Convention of loyalty,
good judgment and integrity, which will
be the best guaranty of faithful and eff
fective action.

New YORK, September pa dispatch
from General Reynolds, at Austin, Texas
announces that a detachment of Federal
cavalry overlook 200 Apaches and killed,
wounded and captured sixty.
At the conclusion of the arguments in the
Surratt case, Judge Wylie said that the of
tense charged amounted to giving aid and
comfort to the enemy by conspiring to alb
duct and murder President Lincoln, and
that this was not treason, and therefore not
covered by the amnesty proclamation. The
Court, for reasons deliberately set forth,
sustained the demurrer of defendants coun-
sci, and allowed until tomorrow to file an
amended plea, so as to meet the technical
objections of the Court.

GIVING Up THE SHIP.-Horatio Seymour
in his letter to Colin NJ. Ingersoll, formerly
representative in Congress from Connecticut,
declares that his friends I" have plunged
him into sea of troubles" and adds with

dleten, the Democratic leader in the North
west. telegraphs to General McClernand, of
Illinois, giving up his engagements in that
State, owing to the condition of politics in
Ohio, a dispatch which McClernand prints
to propitiate disappointed Democracy.
These mournful voices, no longer con-
cealed by the discouraged leaders of the De-
mocracy, are but the echoes of popular ap-
prehension. From the day when Seymour
and Blair we're nominated-a day of con-
and woe-the progress of Demo-
cratic disintegration has been going on.

when the column fred a volley, many at
Johns, but mostly at Naples store, where six
unarmed citizens were wounded. Immedia-
tely about twenty citizens sprang to arms and
fired into the column, by which two niggers
| were killed and an unknown number wound
ed. The negroes Immediately broke to a
thick cluster of timber hundred yards from
the Courthouse. At this point an attempt
was made by Pearce to rally the routed
forces. Citizens to the number of about 80,
part being mounted, made charge and COM
pletely routed the whole force, Pearce flying
to the woods and fields, Murphy escaping in
buggy up towards Albany. Several niggers
were killed. From the best information we
have been able to procure, between 80 and 40
we're wounded, all of whom have been pro-
perly cared for. The Sheriff goes on to ex-
press regrets that the citizens of Camilla en-
terrain at the necessity which brought about
the occurrence. The citizens still think it
was their duty to obey the orders of the
Sheriff to break up the unlawful assemblage.
GENEVA, September 22.-As the funeral
procession of Mrs. Carr was to-day crossing
the Erie Railroad. near Painted Post, an ex-
press train came along, frightening the horses

ceased was thrown ON the track, and had both
feet cut off. A child OF the deceased was lit
orally cut to pieces.
NEW YORK, September 22.-The brown

3;02, apparently without exertion. This feat
is said to be unparalleled.
CHICAGO, September pa Republican
special says the political question was raised
at a Cabinet meeting Yesterday. Secretaries
Welles and McCulloch declared in favor of
Seymour and Blair. Seward came out une-
for Grant and Colfax. Schotield |
and Evarts expressed no preference, deeming
