A copperhead paper in Cincinnati recently
found mares nest. and soon the news spread
far and rear that Hon. John Lynch. our Men,
Der Of Congress. had been caught defrauding
the Government, in franking bags full Of GER
tain New York newspaper sent through the
mails y II is too bad, sometimes, TO spoil a
good sensational story but justice requires II
in this case. Recently the Mercantile Journal
Of New York city, published of its own accord
several bills introduced into Congress by Mr..
Lynch, together with his speech. Mr.. L. found
that he could purchase Of the proprietors oi
that paper copies at much less cost than he
could get the articles referred to printed in
Washington, and he purchased and sent them to
the different pOst-masters throughout the coun-
try. On hearing the story, Mr.. Lynch submit
tel the matter to the Post Master General, who
assured him that the use made OF the frank was
in accordance with law and the regulations OF
the Department as well as the uniform usage OF
members OF Congress!

We learn on very good authority that Hon.
Moses Mcdonald, Of Fugitive Slave Law notori-
ETY., who would not vote the copPerhcad tickle,
during the war, because his party was too loyal,
has been on visit to this county to urge the
election Of Mr.. Morrill,. and that he claims he
has secured two votes Well, 1t win be fun to
see those two votes. Wonder il we are to have
again something akin TO the so-called investiga-
ton Of the paper credit frauds, by a wonder
full chain Of circumstances, the copperhesd up
on that so called investigating COMMITTEES
has been pensiOned literally, to the exclusion Of
Republican, and perhaps Moses is trying to
milk the same heifer. .r.......
While it is urged by some that Mr.. Morrill,
should be returned to the Senate because he
voted for impeachment, il Is matter singular
enough to cause some notice, that Mr.. Fessen-
den and his friends and every other anii-im-
pcacher in the State is working assiduously for
his reelection We do not say that this fact
effectually disposcs Of the matter urged why
men should vote for Mr.. Morrill,, but II is sin

Hannibal Ho,aiia.
From the Chicago Journal, iT,h.

From the Chicago Journal, iTth.
The term Of SENATOR Morrill,. OF Maine, will
expire on the i,h Of March next The Legisla-
ture Of that State win meet on the first wcines-
day Of January. The question Is, shall Morrill,
be reelected. or shall he give place to Hon. Han
nibal Hamlin, Eight years ago the former was
elected to fill the unexpired term Of the latter.
In 1853 he was elected Tor six years. lie has
done well, but not remarkably 30. Mr.. Hamlln
was far more prominent and influential. Twen-
ty years ago the legislature Of Maine elected
him To the Senate, and he was put upon the M
tional ticket because he had proved himself q
great and incorruptible statesman. When the
Republican party exchanged him for Andrew
johnson, il committed the great blunder Of its
life. II came very near proving fatal.
Ordinarily, the Senatorial quection is local,
and papers in other. especially distant States,
should not interfere but the whole country
feels peculiar interest in Hannibal IIamlin, and
especially desires his return to the public ser
vice. Let Andrew johnson be buried deep in
the dark waves Of oblivion, living only upon the
roll Of the nations dishonor. while Hannibal
Iamlin Is again ordered to the front. All would
then admit that the course Of justice does some
times run smooth.
or Mr.. Hamlin Il must further be remember.
ell that at the time Of Johnson's dcfcction, he
was holding the most lucrative Office in New
England, that Of Collector for the port Of Bos-
ton, and that, although poor man, he resign
ell and took an active part in the campaign Of
1866. lie deserves the Senatorship IL ever a
man did. and his election would be hailed with
joy by the entire Republican party.

The Mobile Register, Of which John Forsyth
is the editor, is still for war. II docs not like
the proposition of the State Legislature, which
Il calls "the devils workshop" to regulate the
affairs Of Mobile city, and it denOunces its
members as "cowarily tyrants." 1t does moi
like Gen. Upham, who leads the State forces
and is trying to restore order, and il calls him
"blood-stained wretch" &c. In speaking Of
Arkansas, II says;

The Chicago papers are waging battle against
the heartless treatment Of children In the pub
lie schools. Flogging Is still in vogue, but
another custom is nearly as bad. The children
are not allowed to enter the school-building
until the hour of session, however cold the
day may be. The little victims may have
waded through the drift to reach the school,
must stand in the cold, without particle OF
shelter. unless they crouch under the fences like
cattle, until the bell rings.
The troubles In Arkansas continue, and In
tcrfcre greatly with agricultural operations, the
negroes having gone to join the militia.

cics were issued, and additional conservative
