PARKER PILLsBURY, in late

York woman's organ, speaking of
Julian's proposed amendment to
the Constitution for uniyersalizing
the right of suffrage, declares war

The amnesty proclamation was
generally discussed in Washington
Christmas day, and its promulga-
ton approved by conservative men
of both parties. There is little
doubt that the leading Radicals are
gratifed at thus getting an elephant
off their hands, for such they have
certainly found the JEFF. Davis case.

Senators Morton and Sherman: and
not much worse than the Indiana
Republican platform"

which have bound together the soldiers,

The Charleston (Ili) P}atnGoazor,
published near the residence of John
Eden, oop2erheaa candidate for Governor
Of Illinois, gives the following biogaph-
zeal sketch Of that individual:
In this vicinity, Eden is known os the
man who, on 2&th day of March, 1864.
the day Of The nevey-to be forgotten raid.
had to leave town afoot and alone skulIlino
through theswoods eight miles to Ash
more, and thence by rail and across the
country, in the night time, to escape the
wrath Of the friends Of soldiers and our
then distressed country. He is known as
the man who, in . measure. was RESPONSE
bic for that raid, by forming companies
and arming men to assist in opposing the
draft AS the man who made speeches all
over this part Of the State, at. every cross
road and every school house, declaring
that the war was a failure, an abolition
crusade against the rights Of his Southern
brethren, and shat the men who engaged
in it were ''IIcssians," ''Lincoln hire
Iings," Trigger thieves" "dogs," ETC., as
tbe,man who did,aI in his power to discour-
age enliatmcnt5, urging the people not to
give another man or another dollar for the
prosecution Of tie war. AS such man
he is well known TO the people Of Coles
county, and as such the people Of Illinois
will know him when his repution is thor-
oughIy ventilated. May God save our
noble State from the disgrace OF eIeva-
ting such a man to the highest Office in
her power.

THE TEsCd MURDER.
Ia learn flom the Sentinel the follow

We learn fIom the Sentinel the follow
ing particulars regarding the trial and
conviction Of the murderers of young
Tesch. It viii be reeoIIeeted that The
murder occurred last November, in the
suburbs Of Milwaukee, and was one of
TIE most cold bIooded and atrocious deeds
ever. perprelrated in the State ....
b On Monday last the Grand Jury, after
a short session, brought in a true bill Of
indictment against ELIAS Reed and An
drew ]. Howard for murder in the first
degree. On Wednesday the Indictment
was transferred to the Circuit Court, the
only tribunal competent to try criminals
Of this class, and on Saturday morning
they where arraigned under the indict-
ment before the court, Hon Arthur
Macarthur presiding.
The prisoners were brought into tto
court room through the Jail yard by the
deputy sheriff, and placed in the prison
ers' box, District Attorney Martin pro-
ceeded to read the indictment to thom-a
document Of considerable length, during
the reading Of which they remained
standing. At its conclusion they were
requested to enter their plea, which they
unhositatingIy did, both pleading guilty.
Judge Macarthur asked if they had any
thing to say why sentence should not be
pronounced upon them, wbereupon they
both gave their version Of the affair from
tho beginning, which differed in no sub
stantial particular from the statements al
ready published by US. Each charged
the other with being the principal in the
crime. During the time he was speaking
Howard appeared perfectly composed,
but Reed was somewhat nervous, rubbing
his hands almost continually, frequently
stopping in his recital, and biting his
lips as # making strong effort to retain
his sef-composure.
Judge McArthur, in passing sentence,
said that he could not help remarking
that the prisoners presented a most extra
ordinary spectacle. Both pleaded guilty
to great crime, but both claimed to be
innoceL+, and accused the ether Of having
committed all the criminal acts In which
their association terminated He must,
however, act officially upon their plea;
and It gave him great satisfaction to con
sign them to place where they would
nerer again have an opportunity to com
nit another terrible crime. He thensen-
fenced them severally to serve in the
State Prison during the term Of their
natural lives; the first day to be in soil
tary confinement, and the remainder at
hard labor.
The prisoners heard tie sentence with
the utmost composure, having evidently
made up their minds as towhat It would
be, and resigned themselves to it. They
were immediately taken back to the jail,
where preparations for their departure 10
Waupun we're Immediately made, They
were heavily manacled together hand
and a leg Of each being fastened to the
other, SO as to efoctually prevent any at
tempt to escape.
A few minutes before the departure Of
the train they were taken from the jail,
placed in hack and conveyed to the de-
pot, where they were safely placed on the
train in charge Of officers, and are, doubt
less, ere this, suffering the penalty Of
their crime

PURposE-People of purpose are the
sort, you know ) and you like to know
them, you know. They are earnest,
straightforward folks, mind their own
business, and generally have good and
healthy share to manage. They are al
ways pleasant as neighbors, useful as
citizens, reliable as friends, and act up
to the golden rule about as near they
make 'em. Whatever they undertake
is generally accomplished at the least
the supposed requisite effort is not
wanting People of purpose should be
encouraged. The example is worth
initiating. People innocent of the
virtue should take home q sample.

Beg Winter has come in earnest, and
the crowd of gaily dressed ladies Gid
ing over the frozen surface of the ponds

animated appearance. The skating

of course the enthusiasm of the fair sex
in the cities is greater than ever. They
are determined to conquer all difficult
ties of the art skatorial, and it is believ-
ed that by the close of this winter thou

We are glad to see this spirit on the
part of the ladies' There is no species
of exercise more health giving than
skating. There is excitement enough
about it to incite to constant exertion

brings soon to the palest cheeks the

HegN The Steam Cordage Company,
at the Port, have just sold their rope
walk to q firm from McKeesport, Pa,
for the sum of one hundred and fifty
thousands dollars. One hundred and
fifty hands are ussualy employed at
these works, but it is not known wheth-
er they will all be retained under the
new management. If is rumored that
the new proprietors will bring a num-
Der of their old hands from Pennsyl-
vania, but We hope that this will not be
done to the detriment of our own peo-
pie, who. can lily afford to be thrown
out of employment at this season of
the year. The factory will change
hands on the first Of January.
It is considered that the property
was bought at a low figure.
