Aid comes for the Indiana Republicans from
an unexpected quarter. The Greenback lead
ers, foreseeing that a Democratic victory III
October means q consolidation of the Demo
cratic vote for Mr.. Tiden in November, and
bad collapse of the movement for Cooper ana
Cary, show signs Of supporting Gen. HARRISON
in the hope that when Gov. Iilden's defeat Is
assured by the loss of Indiana, Democrats
whose hearts are with Cooper will vote for him.
This is one of those practical maneuvera IN
politics which not seldom decide elections, but
which have nothing to do with sentiment ana
less with plinclple-attributes with which the
Greenback movement is poorly endowed. New
ertheless, the supporters of Cooper and Cary,
should Republican victory be due to their
help may have the satisfaction of having gwen
their State an able Governor instead OF having
lined the Executive chair with cheap suit OF
clothes.

The samo correspondent who has candidly
reported his doubts of Republican success in
Indiana, which seem now fast disappearing,
finds no reason to be alarmed about Ohio.
The Republicans have simply had a grand

Milwaukee has several witnesses of cruel
and inhuman treatment of Union prisoners
during the war of the rebellion, and it may
be of interest to relate the experiences OF
one or two of them, now that the SUBJECT
has been reopened. OF the number in this
CITY who were doomed to suffer in Southern
mems for months was Mr.. James +. Garllck,
OF the clerical force of Postmaster West,
whose imprisonment1asted a period OF from
sixteen to seventeen months, and was SO
varied that he is able to give reliable testl-
mony of the general treatment OF our sol
diery a. prisoners of war under rebel rule.
MI. Garlick enlisted for three years in
Company A, First Regiment Wisconsin vol
unteers Captain Goodrich, and was unfor-
tunate enough to be captured, together with
q number Of comrades, at the battle OF
Chickamauga. He was taken to Richmond
and locked up in the Pemberton building,
known during the war as Libby Prison No.
2. Here they suffered the loss OF their
clothing and blankets, and were LETT to
knock about in their we'll worn uniforms,
many of which were already out OF repair.
The rations were scant and the treatment
rude and insulting. After monotonous
experience of two months, during which the
prisoners were pestered by insolent guards
and vermin of smaller sort, they were
sent to Danville, where they remained
until February, and experienced the fact
that their treatment had not been i'm
proved by the change. Ill clothed,
i'll fed, and scarcely cared for during i'll
ness, they thought they had reached the
maximum of hardship as prisoners OF war.
In February following the capture OF Chick
amauga they were told to prepare for
transportation to City Point for exchange.
This was indeed welcome news to the boys
in blue, but it proved a sunbeam between
two clouds, as their destination was the in
famous prison pen at AndersOnville. When
Gsrlick and his fellow-prisoners arrived
there but three sides of the extensive tim
Der stockade had been completed. Con.
tipuous forests furnished an ample supply
Of timber, and the pom was soon prepared
for reception of unfortunate prisoners Of
war. The centre of the inclosed tract was
low and swampy, . running stream keeping
the spot moist and malarlal. The grounds
sloped to each side of the stream, and
the sandy surface, exposed to the scorch
ing rays of the sun, formed the home
and lOdging-place of the prisoners; NJ
barracks or tents were provided TOR shelter
and the soldiery, through lack OF snffiolen,
provision and want Of care, were destined
20 witness terrible havoc among their mum
Der. Mr.. Garlick states that when tn
| prisoners of his squad arrived Ut Anderson
Vile they found sufficient brush on tn
| grounds to construct huts and save them
selves from the consequences OF exposure
| But - the numbers increased the suppl.

Madrid letter in the St. Louis Globe.

Democrat says:
The guide told me an old-tims incident
that occurred not far from Valencia. In
one of the triumphs of the Moors over the
Christians, band of soldiers secured the
country to recruit for the Alhambric mon
arch's harem. In doing SO they espleG
nupne-v. which was, uf course. their es-
pecial abhorrance. and they Immediately
galloped toward it to secure the prizes
Il contained, doubly Jealous since 1t

FOR upon their approach, tor the rumors
of their hateful errand had proceeded them,
and hastily consulted among themselves to
what they could do to avoid the degrade
ton and saerilege. Their only chance was
to make themselves unattractive,. and one
among them proposed that they should cut
off their noses, than which surely nothing
could make them more ugly. This was ap-
proved by the others Though it is to be sup

was not only painful. but would make them
