ANOTHER Book OF THE REBELIIoN.-
The National Publishing Co., Philadelphia,
are about issuing new work entitled the
Life Jefferson Davis, with 4 Secret History
of the Southern Confedracy gathered be-
hind the scenes in Richmond. The work
is by Edward A. Pollard, author of the
Lost Cause. If the revelations from Be-
hind Scenes are any darker and more
damning than the scenes which were enact
ed ON the public stage of the Confedracy,
they must be horrible, incomparably. The
work will be sold by subscription only
From advanced sheets We copy the follow
ing scene enacted behind the black curtain
of the rebellion:
In the confusion and multitude of scenes
which preface wars and other great events
in history the mind naturally inquiries for
some particular body of men. some we'll
defined scene where the operation common
ces, and from which may be traced dramat-
ically the succession of events. Such be-
ginnings are often found in narrow circum-
stances. In the present instance the scenes
of great war properly open in the small
room III Washington City, where fourteen
men pledged themselves TO overthrow the
existing government. They assumed the
direction OF every affair of the South. and
from the beginning it was evident that the
people were to have no calm and deliberate
voice in the matter. An srecutire commit
tee was appointed, I" to carry out the OBJ
jects Of the meeting" Itconsisted of three
persons, and one of them was Jefferson
Davis. That the council was not merely
.'atlvisory," that it represented the vigor
and determination of a revolutionary pur-
pose is proved from the fact that its pro-
grammc was carried out with exactness, a
minute correspondence to every proposition
that could only have proceeded from the
force OF command. Every thing was done
that the council ordered. They did control
'.all political and military operations"
they did have forts and arsenals seized, as,
one by one. the dispatches from Washing
ton indicated them; they did effect Con-
vention at Montgomery arbitrarily appoint
ed: and, in no instance, did the movements
in the South towards Secession vary from
the programme decided at Washington on
the 9Th of January.

OUR NEIGHBOURS.
DELAWARE.

Two very destructive fires occurred at
Wilmington, on Monday evening, the first
breaking out about 9 o'clock, the latter
shortly after midnight. The former was at
the shingle factory of McAlkin & Co., on
the Christians, and is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary; the latter
began in wheelwright shop, at the foot Of
Market street, on the south side of the
bridge. The factory and an unusually
large stock of goods were totally consumed.
The building belonged to J. L. Gregg, val
ued at $4,000. The stock and machinery
belonged to McAlkin s. Co. Their loss is
about $12, 600. The building was insured
for $4,000, while the stock, machinery, ETC.,
were insured for several thousand.
Barrett's stables were also much dam
aged. Loss about $500.
Before this fire was under control another
alarm was given, calling the firemen to the
foot of Market street. This began in the
wheelwright shop before referred to. The
shop was frame, and being very dry, its
destruction was rapid. The Grant House
adjoining, and lager beer saloon was soon
destroyed, and the fire communicated in a
very short time to the large carriage fac
tory of Robinson & Brother. 1t was a
large building, full of combustible mate
Tidi 1uc Value vi lllc SlOCk Oh Ustiltt WIS
$25, 900, much of which was saved.
The total loss is estimated at 1885, 900, on
which the insurance is about $50, 600.
Between 10 and II o'clock, on Tuesday
night, fire broke out in the frame stables
of George f. Brady 6 Co., at Delaware
City. There were in the stables at the
time thirty five mules, used for towing on
the canal, and young man or boy, who
attended to the stable. The flames spread
with such fearful rapidity, that neither the
boy nor the animals could be rescued, and
all persisted in the flames. The fire is sup
posed to have been the work of an incen-
diary.

REPUBLICANS of Vinton, re-
member that Seymour's major.
ity in this county last year was
only 81. We can carry the
county this year if we do our
duty. A change of 2S Demo,
cratic votes will give us the
county, and we know there are
five times that number ofhon'
est Democrats who will not en-
dorse the extravaganza and
foolishness of their late Legis
lature, if the facts and figures
are presented to them properly.
1t is your duty to see that they
are informed; for they will new
er see a hint about the rascali,
ties of the late Legislature q in
the Democratic papers they
are in the habit of reading,
IT is a curious fact that the
Democratic papers in hunting
up articles written during the
war have found nothing worthy
of reproduction except such as
eminated from Republican
sources. Won't they please
give US a few extracts from
Democratic sources. They
would be interesting reading
matter-would serve to keepa
Democrat cool during the heal
, of the campaign, ~ .,.- .J
