Democrats have boosted their 80, 900
majority in Kentucky, given by ex-rebel
soldiers, cowardly guerrilas, and rebels
of the war period too prudent or too timid
to be either soldiers or guerrilas; but
Vermont rolls up m sjority correspond
inely as large, and every vote of that
majority was cast by men who supported
the Government. either by muskets or
their votes, while the Kentucky De-
mocracy were attempting to strike the

Indianapolis Journal.
TIE Journal cannot surely have for
gotten the fact that the State which it
endeavors thus to malign and misrepre-
sent furnished over 5000 soldiers to the
Federal army at the time of the nations
sorest need.
The Journal claims or asserts that the
unprecedented majority given Gov. Ste
venson in the late election was given BY
"ex-rebel soldiers, cowardly guerrillas,
and rebels of the war period" Pray,
what does il suppose has become of the
survivors of the 75, 900 Union volunteers?
The total vote cast being only lao, LAG,
these Union veterans must necessarily
have c. st large proportion of it, and
the Journal can hardly expect them 10
feel iuexpressibly grateful TO the party
that denounces them as "exrebels aud
guerrillas."
Can the Radical press on the other side
Of the river be reduced to such extremi-
ties to prop their falling fortunes as TO
resort TO willful and deliberate misrepre-
sanitation Of Kentucky's Union soldiers?
The Journal knows as we'll as any one
that Kentucky furnished three men TO

VESSEL DIsINFECTED BY STEAM.-The
Navy Department has received dispatches
from Commander Chandler, of the United
States steamer Don, dated Vera Cruz, De-
cember 10Th. He states that the yellow
fever broke out on board Of his vessel on
the 25th Of November. 1t proved to be of
a most malignant type. He was ordered
to the above port, and on arriving there
the ship was anchored with "spring,"
and was always broadside to the wind.
The sick were at<once landed, and their
clothing and bedding aired. The ship was
thoroughly impregnated with yellow fever.
Commander Chandler caused the matches
of the berth-deck and ward-room to be
securely closed. One joint of the steam
heater on the berth-deck was disconnect-
ed, and the same operation performed in
the ward room. A thermometer was low
cred through a small slip in the tarpaulin,
and after two hours steaming in the ward
room it indicated 205 degrees, and on the
beth-deck Ito degrees. The matches were
then opened, decks dried down, joints of
steam-heaters replaced, and in two hours
more there was no Indication of the ex-
treme heat to which those places had been
exposed. No cases of fever occurred af-
terward. We had twenty-three cases on
board, and seven men died. Commander
Chandler informs the Department that he
is fully persuaded that heat eradicated the
disease as effectually as severe frost could
have done.
