Gratis who united themselves to the
Republican party in 1861, and haYe
ever since contributed their decisive
influence to its counsels.
As the advocate of the Gencral-in
Chief and the War Department dur
ing the recent trials before the SUI
preme Court, his style of oratory and
argument attracted the attention OF
his own associates and Of all who
heard him, and elected the highest
tributes from the bench itsef.
We are glad to perceive that Mr..
Carpenter does not conceive that the
overthrow Of the rebellion and the
attempted reorganization of the dem
ocratic party, even under the leaders
ship recreant Republicans, closes his
connection with the Republican par>
ty, but, on the contrary, while CON
frming the convictions that led him
to separate from his former political
friends, stimulates him to renewed
exerlions against the rebel Democra,
cy.
Ills late speech at Milwaukee, was
characterized by peculiar force and
originality. Why should no. such
great organizations as the Union
Leagues of Philadelphia and New
York invite this splendid orator to
address them at an early period Of
the campaign?

FEARFUL REvENGE.-A London
paper says "Vice- Chancellor Gift
ford had before him on Saturday a
suit, Simpson against Cambell, which
is described rs a case Of mutual an
noyance between the occupiers of
adjoining houses in the neighborhood
of kilburn. The plain tiff was Of a
musical turn of mind, and was in
the habit Of INDUCING his taste at
what the defendant considered un =
seasonable hours, and with unseason-
able pertinacity and iteration. Ao,
cordingly the defendant, who is en-
gagged in scientific calculations, by
way Of retaliation, constructed an
instrument, fearfully and wonderful
ly made, from which sounds describ-
ed as positively terrific in character
were evolved as soon as the plain
tiff's piano commenced operations,
and also occasionally in the middle
of the night, so as to disturb the
slumbers of the plaintiff and his wife,
and actually cause them and their
children to rise from their beds in
alarm,

INCREASE FROM REDUoTIoN.-The
reduction of the tariff of charges for
messages over the Atlantic cable has
had very beneficial effect upon the
receipts. At the late meeting Of the
Atlantic Telegraph Company, Mr..
Cyrus w. Field stated that under the
S125 rate the receipts were So ,525 per
day under the $50 rate they were
81, 695, and under the S26 rate they
were SO, 465. He stated that the
company was in position to do six
times the amount of business it is
now doing without adding particle
to the expense. Another reductio n
in the rates will take place after the
1st of September, when it will be
$3.50 gold for 10 words between auy
part of Great Britain, and New Eng
and New York.
