want a treaty Our Government is act
ing with the weakiaeM ef a chili iajthis
Indian "war." "Th'e'Commissioners who
sat in judgement over Chiviogton should
be made to hold an iciest overthe.-e
butchered women, and thn have a chance
to withdraw their censure of Chiingion,
we believe they would do it. This war ' vahi four Copperhead and, four Rep ab
must be stopped, and treaties will nver , iicans.
An it nnr rlrK r.pnsnrin?? ft food nffiepr
help the matter. Maa well, equipped, J
and generals who. fight to, whip, are the
only effective arguments to these devels.
-We believe tha.t one Indian killed will do
more to bring about a lasting peace than
two treaties. " . :
. : Much is being said over the Territory
. about the coming election, generally
calling for the nomination of good men,
irrespociive of party issues. The "first
is all , right and well enough ; but we dif
. Ter.. with these "trrespective if party'
journals, inafmuch as we believe that ns
good men are generally elected under the
: Convention yiem as in a '-cruh rce.'".
We believe that this is generally a dodge
of the weaker naitvl in ordr m rfU.ir-
. ciz? politic, when th-y will at any
time take advantage of .oojc mi5top of
the dominant paYty in the States to re
.. organize and gam real advantage by
, .the truce. : The Demo-Copperhead party
will playoff this trick in this Territory
if they are perm itu-d the chanre, and we
cannot but feel surprised that any Union
paper will assist them in this business.
We desire to pee the Union party of this
county and the whole Territory stand as
firmly together and as. well organized as
they were during the war. This must
be done, and is as necessary now as it
.i -ever was. There is one issue which we
knowthe Copperhead party drtad, and
', ' which should and must. be squarely made
thia fall; in this county we may not cee
the danger cf inaction, but if 'this matter
it not attended to this fall, its bad effect
will be felt ever after.. We. allude to
. disfranchised .of 'others States who
.have come, and still may come; and set
' tie ia' this Territory. We believe our
wstivioiuic ciwuiu. ijcai winier. r.ass an

this Territory. The authorities where
. they have teen'disfranchised have been
best able to' judge whether they are fit
' or-riot to exercise the right of t-uffrage,
they.have decjtel that tliey are not, and
fir us to ttepf hemi in the full bloom of
citizenship would be as absurd as a coun
try justice reversing a decision of the
" Supreme Court of the. United. States: .
There are local reasons why a Con
- Tention should be held.
ttere is considerable diliercnce of.
cplnion as to .whether the people cf .this
county want a Herd Law. This has been
fiiffrUSSpH Inn pnr.'lT?'. and ( ltn'nl.' it, a
people should give soioa definite expre?

throughl the piuuiiry and Coucy Ccn

will go beyond any other District in the
Territory. Now, caji any sane person
doubt that this might have been doubled,
yes trebled, with a, proper effort? Our
advantage to the emigrant must be fair
ly placed .before the world, and to do
ihian organization is necessary. Such
an organization will be assisted in its
operations by the Territorial. and by the
General Government, by other Boards
and by our Legislature. A Commissioned
Agent sir id Le employed to travel to
foreign countries, and cur inducements
should be posted on every emigrant
steamer that lands in American ports
A constant correspondt'neo with eastern
and-European paper. should be ktpt tip.
At home this organization should assist
every emigrant in making a selection
and settlement. When these things are
done will we begin to reap the benefits
of our oumerou?. natural advantages, and
not till then. ' "
This is a matter of importance to all,
and to let inaction thwart this enterprise
is criminal. Every fool of prairie brok
en up adds to the material welth of all.
There will be a meeting for the purpose
of organizing an Emmigrant Aid Socie

- "Oa the 2d inst , news came to our
camp that a train that left the river at
3 o'clock was attacked by 30 Indians.
Our camp being nearly diserted('a detail
of 20 men being away under Lieut
Winkelrran, so as soon as we cold Gim
Fuller, Palmer, Caldwell and myself sad

attack. Within two miles of camp we
came on the train-returning, who told us
tha t two miles ahead the Indians would
be found. We started on in full lope,
were soon joined by -6 men of the 1st
Michigan. On reaching the top of a
high hill, we raw a wagon with two yoke
of cattle close by. There, after four
years of soldering, I saw the most horri
ble-sight l ever saw. On the ground
close tg the wagon lay an old lady who
wei afterwards, learned was 70 years tf
nge dead and scalped from the forehead
to the back bf her neck and from ear to
ear, her throat cut from ear to ear, one
brest cut off, a gash from the lower part
uf-her right brest to the centre of her
back, wkh an arrow sticking close to her

had also been, they kilTe a citizen and
wqunded a soldier, dfbve oft' SO head of

that belonged to soldiers stationed !;ere

the distance back' to our camp, they told
us it was eighteen miles, and it was now
dark, they also told us in the place of 30
or 40 Indians that made the attack there
there was near 300. However we start

' The following are some recent deci
sions made by the Commissioner of Tn
terha'rRevenue :
A mortgage to secure an annuity of
$500 per annum, during the life of the
annuitant, the present value of. the an
nuity being specified in the condition of
the mortgage, at- 8,000, is subject to a
stamp duty of six dollars. a
Produce dealers are required to pay a
t8X of 1-8 per cent, on their sales, and
are considered brokers under section 90.
This is additional to the license tax.
Certificates of burial lots being in the
nature 6f conveyances, are subject to
stamp'duty as such.
The 126th seciion of the act of June
30th, 1864, declares thai "for the pur
pose of this act, the term real estate shall
include all lands, tenements, and heredit
aments, corporal or Tncorporal.'
, It 7riH hardly be contended that lease
hold esta!es are included in the foregoing
t numerations, and; what is not expressly
included, jmay reasonably be suppled to
have been intentionally prnied. I can
see no propriety in extending the appli
cation of the ' statin's to matters btyond
the ordinary import ot H3 language, and
I. therefore decide that ihi sale 2nd as
signment pf a lease or agreement ou'ht
notto be regarded as a .sale of real
estate. 1 1 ,

Through the earthly and pecuniary rewards if such ser
vice might not be great yet he had the richer reward of
seeing men converted to God and walking in holiness
of life ; he had the reward of possessing the affection
ate regard of the region in which a lived ; he had the
blessed reward bf feeling Chat others were madebetter
and happier, .through bis instrumentality. Now the
Master has said to him '"come up higher." Now he
has entered into 'th Joy of Ms .Lord." Now he
knows the fall meaning of that promise which says
they that turn many to righteousness shall shine as
the stars ' for ever and ever. '
The Rev. William Crow was born in Virginia, Mar.
22nd, 193. In 18C3 he removed into Cumberland Co.
Ky. Tie made a public coufession of his faith In Christ
in 1S23, and at once, entered upon the duties of the
ministry In connection with the Bapiist denomination.
" , a
lie was twice Married and has had tve children of
wnom four arestill living. He continued in theactire
duties of tbe ministry till 1S61, when the infirmities
of advanced age made v it advisable for him to cease
from the active duties of his profession. Since then
be has been waiting in patient hope for the feet of the
Messenger, who should conduct him to his home.
During tbe last few j rars of his life he did Tittle but
study the fcriptore. He dwelt almost In sight of the
CeiesiUi City. Eis mind and heart were nt tamed
to Earth but tolleavcn.
"Flow blest the righ e us when he dies !
When sinks a weury soul to rest.

Speaking of the late election, the Lou
isville Journal savs : MVVe . have for
6ome time been trying, not wLoiiy with
out success, to convince ourselves ihai the
number of actual rebels in soul has beerrv
inconsiderable since the close of the war;
but, in view of the results of last monday's
elections in some parts of Kentucky,, we
are apprehensive that we have been mis
taken. Certainly, soaie of the bitterest
and boIdest,-or rather most audacious, of
all tbe rebels and rebel sympathizers in
tfce Stale, have been elected to the Leg
islature by large majorities elected, not
in spite of thir being rebels or quasireb
els, but for the reason that they are so.
The Mississippi Convention election
resulted largely Conservative.
