lures, wua aDOUi lour uiousanu carairy
and 'fix . piece of artillery, to invade
. South-Eastern Indiana. His intention,
no doubt, was to retreat immediately
airocs the river, but he found gunboats in
bisway. Like aboyen stilts he was
compelled to keep moving. He passed
up the river, hunting a place to cross, but
found none , in Indiana. He travelled up
through the river counties as fast as possi
ble, going in sight of the steeples of Cin
cinnati, on through the hills and foiests of
. Ohio, sometimes venturing insight of the
" river,' to find gunboats awaiting his ap
proach, and then falling back from 40 to
CO miles among the hills, exchanging his
worn cut horses for fresh, ones, wherever
he could find a livery stable or catch a
horse. It. was thus impossible for any
force iu his rear to catch up with him.
Asf there was no ' cavalry in Indiana or
Ohio, and as no one knew where Morgan
would go, or what route he would take, it
was thought by many that he would es
cape.. 'The militia at certain places col
lected together and prevented him from
destroying Jrailrond bridges' and robbing
drug stores, &.c. But to follow him was
in vain,' as he would be a hundred miles
away, before a force sufficient could be
organized.
,GcnI Burnside, however, started a
force-after him, of seven thousand, who
kept about a days march in his rear, un
til ih'ey got to Pike County, Ohio, where
the citizens, anticipating hi? arrival, cut
down on different roads, over one of
which he wouid have to pass, timber for
a "distance" cf 1 Jrniles. In' the mean
tirne; cavalry had been raised about Cin
cinnati and sent by steamboat up. the riv
er to intercept him. They had several
skirmishes and, fights, with him in Pike
and Jackson counties, killed a few and
captured 2500 of his men. Four or five
L'ui-ulred succeeded in eluding the boats,
and crossed into Virginia; the gunboats
however succeeded in drowning .150.
'Morgan's force, now "reduced to a few
hundred are still, hurrying on, and he
may possibly yet escape, but the chances
are against him. . -.. ;

- THE NEr- Y0RO10I3. - - -
For the first time for two years, the

to fill iheir columns. The Ncw ;York

c oi ; s c r ipti 0 :T a c"l u a s ill e'a 1 ,""a nd ' th aT ih e
people ."deserve I to be tarfa" if they
submitted.- :
.The mob was compose i cf the worst
class of all nationalities Irish. Germans
and Americans. By far the larger por
tion of them were IrUh. no respectable
Iriah, not any from the 6th or 14th' wards,
but the low drunken rowdies, such as in
fest Five Points. There is no doubt but
the nicb was'concocted by genuine rebels.
It va3 the intention to commence the
roit on the 4th of July,' but the defeat of
Lee, surprised arid disconcerted their ar
rangements, Had Lee been victorious,
a nd . marched on through : Pennsylvania,
they would have raised the Confederate
flag and attempted .o bring cn a revolu
tion in New York. Their watchword
was'"down with the" flag," and "down
with the nigger." The mass of the
crowd, were - poor, ignorant, bosotted
wretches who Lad no object in vievy",
save resistance to the draft, desire to
commit devilment, and in some cases to
pillage. They wanted to murder Aboli
tionists, but would 4have probably been
quite as ready to murder secessionists
had they been set c'n.. "But the leaders
and instigators, were rebels, and vainly
hoped they could inaugurate a revolution.
They were neither Irish ner Dutch,' but
Americans, seme of them Southerners,
and claiming some little respectability.
One of them, a Mr, Andrews, was from
the "first families of Virginia." had fre
quently addressed the people as an Anti
war Democrat, along with Fernando
Wood, seemed to be the principal spirit
in directing the rioters.' He and others
were frequently observed to hurrah for
Jeff. Davis. In several places the Stars
and Stripes were torn to pieces. The
mass of the mob were plaint tools in the
hands of these rebels.
.We have seen no estimate as yet of
the nurcber of . murders, the amount of
property destroyed, or the number of
negroes killed by the mob, nor of the
number, of, the mobocrats killed by the
police and military.
The New York Tribune, gives great
praise to the efforts of Irish Cathclic
Priests in quelling the late roit.
No: Copperheads In the Army.
The St. Louis Republican complains
that Gen. .IJalleck and Sec. Stanton,
when they were serenaded over the
fall' of Vicksburg, should have used
the term "Copperhead " in the short
speeches they made. The Republican
says the term Copperhead is applied
to Democrats, and that there are as
many Democrats in tho army as Re
publicans. AH' very true, but the
Democrats in the army aro not Cop
perheads. Lieut. Polock says in the
Nebraska Firsts there are plenty of
Democrats, but not one Copperhead!, at
least among the privates. Captain
Matthews tells the eame of the Kan
sas Seccnd; they all "hate the Cop
perheads cf the Xorth worse than the
oven armed rebels.11 The soldiers of
all regiments, . throughout Missouri,
detest such sheets as the Republican,
and all who patronize it. But "wher
ever they find a copy of the St. Louis
Democrat, in any house they may visit,
that family is safe from any outrage
or insult no danger of their being
jayhawked in the night. -
We often hear men say, "O, I am
a Copperhead, because I am & Demo"
crat all Democrats areCopperheads,"
and then begin to tell how many
Democrats there are in the array.
These men are like the fox in the
fable, who had lost his tail in a trap,
and wanted all the other foxes to dis
pense'with their. tails. They know the
stigma that attaches to their charac
ter, and as miBery loves company,
they want it to appear that all Demo
crats are Copperheads. Those only
are Copperheads, (and it matters net
whether they :are Democrats or Re
publicans, Whigs or Abolitionists,)
whose sympathies are to a greater or
less cx.tent with the Rebels ; who want
the War stopped, and. the Southern
Confederacy; recognized, which is of
course a dissolution of the Union ;
who" oppose every measuro of the
Administration, that . is calculated to
suppress the rebellion.. , There are
many grades of Copperhead s, from the
open, avowed Rebel, down to hypo
critical or weak kneed Union men;
and they manifest themselves in in a
thousand ways by constantly finding
fault with the real or fancied mistakes
of the Administration ; by opposing
the draft ; grumbling about the War
Tax; by magnifying the success of
the rebels, and representing that they
sre invincible : by reioicinrr over the
' Rebel victories, and denying the iolnnd compelled the cUizecs to
pc rt a 1: ce '-6 tU ti i 0 :i - v ic 1 0 r i a ml 7 i :r
myriades of other ways. The true
Copperhead cannot po33ibly .disguise
himself. He may attempt to play tho
Union nan, but he cannot kep up the
character fifteen minutes without mis
takes. Likeahs Asa in the Lyon skin,

The Rlcbardson County Murder.
' Mr! Editor : As' certain false ru
mors and vague impressions have ob
tained in various parts of the country,
with regard to the death of one La
fayette Shamlin, at Salem, Richardson
county, please allow me, through your
columns, to give ;a' state ment of tho
facts as they occurred.
Mr. Shamlin came to Salem some
time this Spring,, and made himself
somewhat notoriously chasing a sol
dier out of town, with a revolver and
bowie knife to back up his threats if
the soldier did not leave. . The soldier
left, and Mr. Shamlin left soon after
for a few week, and then returned and
staid a few days, and was at Salem off
and on until' the 25th of June, when
he road through town , at full speed,
stopped at the residence of a citizen,
arid called his name several times,
and requested him to come out. The
citizen recognizing the voice, did not
come out; so Mr. S. went to the door
and pushed ' against it,'and dared him
to-came out,' which he did not see
fit to do. ' Mr. then mounted his
horse, and swore by all that was good
and great,, that he would blow his d d
brains out the first chance he had ; in
the meantime, to enforce his threats,
holding a cocked revolver in his hand,'
and having another. in his belt, also a
largo bowie knifeof which the writer
of this article was witness to'. Mr. S,
after making the above demonstration,
left as he came,"nnder full speed; '
The citizen threatened then went to
the office of a; Justice of the Peace,
and got out a writ of assault with in
tent to kill ; The qfficer entrusted
with serying-the writ took a posse of
ten men and proceeded after Mr. S.,
and followed him through Falls City
to the residence of Lieut. Bayn, about
three miles east of Fall3 City, where
they arrested him and took hirn back
to Salem, and. delivered him. over to
the Justice who issued the writ. Mr.
S. had an impartial trial, and was
bound over for appearance at court in
the sum of 1,000. Failing to give
bail he was put in charge of the officer
who arrested him, vho summoned two
persons to assist, in guarding him
through the night.. . ' :V
Mr,- S. was - put in a' Vacant building
seemed to be watching for an opportuat
tj ta escape, and told his friends that he
could escape all such guards .those and
meant to do so. ' ' . : i
V " About midnight ho seemed to h-J asl-ep

Mr. Shamltn, came to his death, asl." was

the body,' on the morning or. nis aeata. ;
.Ail present at'the inquest and ail othj-
ers whd knew the desperate character pf
Mr: S.r were satisfied that he came o
his deatlf by the hand of1 the guard jn
the discharge , of theirv.duty. I have
made-this. statement .that all who have
false impressions may know the facts in
the case.
A report has been circulated that Mr;
S., was murdered by the 'secesh'.' of, Sa
lem. To correct that one impression I
will state that the guard were men who
can show as good union" papers as any
persons in the United States,. and., are
willing to do, so at any time. , . - ,

From extensive researches, wiare sat
isfied that the honor of its first ntroduc

Ducan, of Fulton County, who biought it
to Illinois in 1835. 1
The undersigned, with a few ethers,
having cultivated this tree for a nlmber
of years tm the'prairi3rv:and fairly Rem
onstrated its Value ri'J, with the recom
mendation of the'IIIinois State Ilor'cul-
ural Society, (at the -' last three annual
meetings which' its merits have been free

the "prairies oa its, owi merits issjaiin''
ating the first of any considerable amount
the past season. Its value was so ippa
rent ta tho i 'public, -.that an; irameiise de-
mand suddenly sprung upv
Certain, shrewd sharpers (the princi
pal one, an'Ohio banker) seeing at1 once1
the magnitude this enterprise wouIJ as
sume, with cunningdesign endeavored
to purchase or control the entire crcp in
the Westi'aHcPtliuis -secure a Monopoly
of the trade, forcing the farmers to pay
them their own prices. .
In this they so far succeeded as to se
cure. on.vanouaLfalsb pretences, a large
quantity of the cuttings, at prices merely
nominal, before the "Game" was under
stood; so far a 3 they could, hying undir
restriction "in regard to retailing tibe
patties from whom they purchased.
By thus reducing the numutTTT'tfjSt"
ers and traducing the balance, thev have
already cooly pocketed tens of thousands'
of dollars, at their1 extortionate p'i:e3.i-

them at some dollars a thousand less,
through their lying agents they are con-:
