WHEREAS, The said General Order No.
Ii was an unjust and wanton libel, not
upon individuals, but expressly made to
apply to the whole race of Israel, branding
us as faithless, dishonest and disloyal. and
it's purpose and effect werc to prosecute

The White Bows in Blue.

On Thursday evening last disgrace
full copperhead riot took place in Indian
apolis. At the close of Democratic
meeting in the Fourth ward, a party of
white boys in blue" assaulted the
grocery of colored man and "cleaned
out " the house. In the melee, Lieut.
ant Offentranger, of the maurauding
party, was shet and fatally wounded and
others were injured my missiles thrown.
The "white beysnl then proceeded to the
Colored Baptist Church, where festi-
val was in progress, and stoned the
building, broke in the windows and drove
women and children from the house.
Several shots were fired, but none took
effect. The timely arrival of the police
dispersed the rioters. There was no
offenses given by the colored people, and
the riot was purely malicious.

Geu. Butler and the .sspoons. y

Gen. Butler has called down upon his
head an enormous load of Rebel lies
probably because of three facts in hi:
career, which, unlike the insinuations
relative to spoons" and stealing" can
be easily substantiated.
1. He hanged Rebel. A steadfast
opponent of capital punishment we dis.
approve this portion of his career.
2. He compelled the ''ladies" of New
Orleans to treat our soldiers with re-
spect. AS champions of gallantry and
politeness between the sexes we. see nc
objection to this.
8. He collected from the Rebels while
in New Orleans, by systematic assess
ments, the money with which he sup
ported, fed, clothed, and paid his army
and the navy attached to his force, and
with which he paid the expenses of the
City Government of New Orleans, in
cluding his measures for cleansing and
disinfecting that city-making it health
ier than it ever was before--and
providing for it most efficient police
and after disbursing all these expenses
he paid over to the Treasury of the Uni
ted States net surplus of over eleven
millions of dollars. Secretary Chase re-
marked that if all our Generals were
like Butler he could not only cary on the
war without greenbacks, but without
gold. There were generals who gave no
trouble to the enemy and a great deal
of trouble to the Secretary of the Treas
ury. Their war was on the Treasury
and the pockets of loyal men, not on the
Rebels. Butler, however. gave no trou-
BILE to the Secretary of the Treasury, and
made the Rebels walk in that straight,
chaste, and elegant manner for which
the Spanish are so widely celebrated
This suffices. to account for the populari-
ty among Rebels and Copperheads of
those Generals who nearly bankrupted
our Treasury, and the unpopularity of
Gen. Butler among the same classes

VaIiandigham.

The irrepressible POLITICIAN and office
hunter, Vallandighans, has again been
nominated for Congress by the Democ-
racy of Ohio, until very lately the Dem
ocraey have been going back on VaIlan-
digham, ever since his arrest as a rebel
sympathiZer. But he managed TO get a
place in the late Presidential Convention
as substitute for an Ohio delegate; and,
after the Ohio delega ton found it impos-
sible to secure the nomination ,of Pen
dleton, it was Vallandigham who pro-
posed the namination of Horatio Sey-
mour. After this it was, of course inn
possible for the Democracy to taboo him
any longer. We suppose there is nc
doubbof his defeat in the Third District

A KENTUCKY UNIoNIsT writes to the
Cincinnati Commercial as follows:

You men of the North, Conservative
and War Democrats, may believe that
the threats of revolution and rebellion
in the South are idle. You are mistaken.
All over Kentucky, nearly, bands of Con-
federates are organizing, holding secret
night sessions, aud praying that the
election of Seymour may give them the
opportunity of overturning the South
ern State Governments and driving the
Union men from the country. The
rebel spirit is rife in the land
You have the deciding votes. If you
elect Seymour such a torrent of wild re-
bellion will be set in motion as will
startle you. If you elect Seymour hun
dreds of Union men who have stood by
the old flag in the hour of danger, and
have hazarded their lives for the Gov
eminent, will de driven by prosecutions,
by cruelty, by rebel malignity from Ken
lucky, to find home elsewhere. We
pray God that you may stand by us now.
1t is our only hope. If Grant is elected
we can prosper in peace, and live as we
wish to live, for these men will not dare
TO produce discord with his hand at the
helm. Do not desert us.

Why did the editor of the Gazette
parble the speech of Governor Seymour?
why did he leave out Mr.. seymours
strong argument against paying the
bonds in greenbacks? Was it because
that part of the speech did not suit this
latitude? We are somewhat anxious
that the readers of the Gazette shall un-
derstand the position of their candidate
upon this important question, and we
pubIish elsewhere the greenback part of
Mr.. Seymour's speech which was left
ont by the Gazette, and we ask our Re-

too late for effective refutation, made q
Democratic speech at Bridgeport, where.
in he stated as unquestionable facts
that
1. at will cost this year more than
$3.50, 600, 900 to maintain the Army to
keep the South in subjugation. +"
II. More than $500, 0,000, 900 per year
have been wasted in order to uphold this
policy of Reconstruction"
Ill. Now, S400, 100000 [per annum]
are raised, and Out of it the public credi-
tor gets but S100, 900. F"
We have been careful to give HoratiO
Seymour's exact words, just as reported
for and printed in The World-on the
very eve of an important election. Now,
we will thank The Sun to answer cate
gorically tnree questions:
l. Were these assertions, or either of
them, true? = ~ $. -
2. If not true, were they mistakes
which decently informed American
statesman could honestly fall into?
8. If neither of the above, Uhat aoere
they? ~
We have preferred to go our own
way, trusting that The Sun would do
likewise. phat journal seems to prefer
to cross our track somewhat eccentricalIy.
We accept its choice, and only ask it to
reserve exhibitions of its deXterity in
turning corners for other occasions and
meet us frankly, neutrality-suspicious..
The Sun thus replies to these questions
respecting Horatio Seymours assertions:
1T is evident to any man who knows
the facts, that the statements quoted as
Gov. Seymour's are not true, and that it
is not creditable to him to have made
them. He should not have allowed him.
self to be led into such exaggeration.-
But who can properly undertake to say
that he was not honestly convinced that
they We're true when he made them?
