From the Sidney Journal.I
Voorhees, and the Soldiers.

The Democratic managers of their
campaign in Ohio have seen fit to i'm
port Daniel w. Voorhees,, of Indiana,
to stump the State in their behalf.
Last week he spoke in Sidney, and took
occasion, not only to boast Of his 10y
atty, but also of the valuable services
he rendered the country during the
war He vehemently denied ever
having said that every Union soldier
should wear collar labeled. MY dog
"A. .Lincon." Now it happened that
there were two respectable and respon-
sible men in the audience-W. f.
Steen and Henry English-who heard
him say it in speech i'll Indiana. We
took the pains to write to the Indian
apolis Journal in regard to it, and they
published our letter and its reply.
The Journal says Voorhees, always
goes far away from Indianapolis when
he reiterates the denial, which denial
is a miserable lie. The Journal sent
us the following Photographic copy of
a letter now on file among the rebel
archives at Washington, and is among
the recommendations filed by the the
person recommended by Voorhees,
with President jeff Davis for promo
ton, which he received:
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Dec. u, 1860
My friend, Captain Francis A.
Shoup, is about visiting the South
with his sister, on account of her
health. l have known Captain Shoup
since our boyhood. We were school
mates. He is a graduate Of West Point,
and was in the army as lieutenant four
years. No more honorable or upright
gentleman exists. On the disturbing
questions Of the day his sentiments
are entirely with the South, and one Of
his objects is probable home in that
section. I take this occasion to say
that his sentiments and my own are
in close harmony.
D. W. VOORHEES,.
Comment is almost unnecessary.
By his own record, as words, does he
stand condemned. Col. Jonathan
Counts, a former Representative from
this county, an honest, though ardent,
States rights man, said to US the day
that Voorhees, made his speech in Sid
ney, that when a man found he had
been in error, the only way for him to
do was to confess the error, or remain
silent, and not to deliberately and pub
licly lie in regard to his record. Dan
iel W. Voorhees, was all that the most
virulent rebel could ask of a man, and
did double the service to the Confeder-
acy by remaining at home, than he
could have done in joining the rebel
army as an active soldier. He crippled
Governor Morton in every way possible
in Morton's efforts to assist the Union.
He created disaffection among the peo-
pie of Indiana, and spread wide disloyal
and copperhead sentiments. He
sought to organize a band to turn
Indina into the hands of the South
and release the rebel prisoners at
Chicago. He counseled the Legisla-
tnre to refuse all appropriations to
sustain the State in its loyalty, making
it necessary for Governor Morton to
borrow money from the Government
and pledge the State for its payment,
predicating that payment on the con.
tingency Of the election of a loyal
Legislature Soldiers of Ohio, can you
brook this insult to your intelligence,
your patriotism and your honor?

Food at Saratoga.

At Meyers and Moons on the lake,
they are famous for game dinners. A reg.
ular game dinner for one, without wine,
costs S5, and with wine it often runs NJ
to $l2 and SIS, and even 500. The IS
game dinner consists of five courses.
Soup, black bass and stewed potatoes,
chickens, partridge and fried potatoes,
woodcock and salad, and ending with
coffee. A plain game dinner of black bass
and stewed potatoes, and woodchuck and
fried potatoes, costs, without wine, s..
The $25 dinners that Pierre Lorillard,
Belmont and Traverse take are produced
by an lndiscriminate slaughter Of johann
nisberger, champagne, old Burgundy and
dollar cigars. The Saratoga black bass
are caught early in the morning in deep
water. They weigh from pound to a
pound and half. They are very juicy
and delicious. No one ever touches
brook trout in Saratoga after having been
once spoiled by eating black bass. Mr..
Belmont says the Saratoga black bass are
the best fish in the world. We have,
also, what is called the Saratoga white
bait, which really tastes better than the
white bait caught at Manhattan Beach.
Saratoga white bait are produced thus !:
Sunfish an inch and half and two in
ches long are caught in shallow water.
They are placed in salt water which
causes them to disgorge their entrails.
Then they are fried whole in butter.
Saratoga white bait are an impro ovement
on the genuine article.

The Salisbury Fire.

In relation to the recent destr uctive
fire at Salisbury, Nd, the Advertiser
says:
The enterprising firm of E. e. Jackson
& Co., who recently lost by fire their ex-
tensive mills at this place preparatory to
rebuilding. Trees which were growing
in Virginia ten days ago are now worked
mp into frames and landed at their
wharves in Salisbury. They will soon
be moving again at this place. Their
business elsewhere suffered no detention.
The loss by The late fire is about $25. 900
over and above insurance, yet their busi-
ness has been so successful during the
past several years that they will scarcely
feel this loss.
If the firm are so wealthy as to 'scarce-
ly feel" loss Of about $26, 900, they
might do o little towards remunerating
the fremen of Wilmington who expen-
ded their time and labor in suppressing
the fire.
In speaking of the kind of a fire engine
the town should purchase, the Ado erti-
ser speaks highly Of the Clapp & Jones,
and says the city of Wilmington purchas-
ed an engine of this make, last week. 1t
will be news for the people to learn that
su city has Lem making such q purcha Q.

EDWIN FORESTS GREATEST
PERFORMANCE.
THE FASTEST MILE EVER TRoT1ED-

THE FASTEST MILE EVER TRoT1ED-
2:l1 3D. TO sULKY.
The Herald has heretofore chronlcled
some of Edwin Forests extraordinary
performances, but yesterday afternoon
he eclipsed himself, baviug trotted mile
in the unparalleled time of 2:119. Three
watches ere held on him; the fastest
made it in 2:l14 and the slowesl in 2:12.
The first quarter was made in 0:32aa, the
half in 1:05a, the three-quarters in 1881
and the full mile in 2:l12. He was driv-
en- by John Murphy, and the perform
ance was made ON the three-quarter track
near Tarrytown, on Mr.. Bonner's farm.
1t is Mr.. Bonner's intention to exhibit
him shortly on full mile track, where
everybody can see him. Prominent New
York horsemen, like Mr.. GilIender, the
former owner Of Hopeful; Mr.. George
b. Alley, the former owner of Dexter,
and Mr.. Charles Kerner, proprietor of
the Clarendon Hotel, have during the
past year maintained that Forrest Is the
fastest horse they ever saw, and the horse
has now made good all that they ever
said of him.

Georgia is inhabited by white men,
negroes and dogs. Every prosperous
colored family has one dog, the poorer
families keep two, and the most impe-
cunious negro will be found to possess
from three to dozen. This explains
why sheep farming in Georgia partakes
of The hazardous characteristics of invest
ments in mining stocks. Recently the
state superintendent of schools Fl amed a
bill, by which it was proposed to make
the dog population contribute tax for
the maintenance of the common schools.
Immediately howell of disapprobation
went up, which was heard across the
Alabama line. The negroes, although
the watermelon season was at it height,
and the planters chickens were at broil-
ing size, threatened TO get up an exc
dus. The popular discomfort reached
the ears OF the state senators and they
killed the bill, despite the entreaties
of the sheep Rancheros, who were hop
ing for general massacre of dogs On the
part of the negroes.
