The following from the Eastern dispatches
in Yesterdays Enterprise is very loud
''straw" showing which way the political
wind blows in New York:
CHICAGO, October PA call has been
issued by number of Democrats of New
ork for mass meeting in support OF Gen
eral Grant, at the Cooper Institute. The
call invites those Democrats and anti-rebels
who wish to retain the entire Union upon
those principles which are fair and just; who
believe the debt incurred in suppression of
the rcbe lion is a sacred obligation; who
insist that tie plighted faith Of the nation
shall not be violated. and that its name and
credit shall not be dj>graced; who desire to
treat the States lately i'll rebellion with lenient
Justice. Lut who will not consent to surrender
the Government TO the Southern rebels who
are still insisting that the rebellion was right
and boas,iuc Of their continued devotion to
the Lost Cause" who are opposed to the
reputation doctrines OF the New York plat
form, and the revolutionary manifesto of one
OF its candidates: who believe that the peace,
safety and prosperity Of the whole country
Will be secured by the election Of Grant.
The call is signed by a great number Of wall
known Democrats, inclW ling YIN. I. Have

TERRIBLE U0MCIDE.-About Il o'clock
tais morning a terrible homicide was enacted
at Virginia. the victim in the case being
J In Ahorn, formerly an engineer at the
Could x Curry mill, and also, we believe, at
one time an engineer at Silver City. lie
was between twenty-nine and thirty years Of
age, and native Of County Kerry, Ireland.
Immediately previous to the homicide, John
Ahcrn was in Doyle x Rainey's saloon on
c street, where, i appears that he used some
abusive language toward George Swearinger,
commonly known as " Black George, who
was present, but with whom he seemed to
have no particular cause Of difficulty. Wal
ter Vim, the bar keeper, seeing prospects
Of a row. al once took Ahern out, or put him
ont, while other parties were restraining
George. As soon, however, as George could
free himself he started out, saying that ne
man should call him a son of bitch and
get away with it. He met Ahern just out
side the door, on the sidewalk, and a scuthc
eDsued between them. Dennis Ahern "a
Younger brother) was in the street, short
distance from them, and seeing his brother
in a fight, at once ran TO his assistance and
struck George a blow with his fist which
knocked him down. George Immediately
sprang to his feet, drew knife, and stabbed
John Ahern in the neck, intiicting mortal
ana ll4cL lH!LItI toNtiI u ttIe NOu4i-t4
brother Dennis. cutting him on the arms in
two or three places, inaicting slight wounds.
Denis ran, and by superior tieetness of foot
escaped. George, TOO, now realizing what the
Consequence of his bloody deed might be,
also took to his heels and ran along G street
towards the Divide. DR.. Bronson was sent
for directly after the stabbing and arrived
lust as Ahern had b-eathed his last, there
fore It is estimated that he .ved nearly 2oi
after being Stabbed.-,u'f H--i

Sadler's restaurant, near the Old Market,
was arrested yesterday afternoon on the
charge of forging the name of Colonel Al
fred SCoppens, of Henrico county, to two

fifty dollars. lttis stated that Colonel Cop
pens had befriended Reiss frequently, and
that the latter betrayed his confidence.
The notes were in the hands of MIR. William

them. When charged with the offence by
Colonel Coppens the accused did not deny
it, but begged that he should not be prose
.cuted. A warrant was obtained, however,
and placed in the hands of Detective Knox,
who made the arrest. Reiss was locked up,

"ExEcUrIvE DEPARTMENT,
'December 3, 1868.
[" Official copy.] ........
Respectfully furnished for the information
of the Treasurer of the Common wealth.
.s.s.-. ....--" II. WELLS"
General Stoneman has not probably
looked into the question of authority to pay
the Public Guard. All appropriations to
pay the salaries of Governor Wells, Treas
urer Rye, and all other officers have been
exhausted, but we presume they will draw
their next quarters SALARY on the lst of
January. Nearly all the regular special
appropriations Of the last Legislature have
been drawn from the treasury, but no one
expects the wheels of the State Govern
ment will be stopped on that account.
Taxes have been laid and collected for the
purpose of paying the annual expenses
heretofore provided for in the appropriation
bills of the Legislature, and if General
Stoneman wishes to continue the Public
Guard he can find as much, authority in
the laws of the State to pay them as to pay
Wells and Rye.
