stating that our mutual friend Capt A B Miller had been killed at I was very incredulous when I read it still more so a few moments later when the good-looking Captain entered my and gave me a grasp

any amount of service that may b required of him If any tiling occurs within our jurisdiction that in our opinion would read well I not fail to jot it down and send it alone Restating the Conner Act One of the results of Copperhead doc trines teachings and Intentions manifest a yesterday in examination of Mrs Ellen before United Slates Commissioner on of resisting an enrolling officer in the discharge of his sworn The accused a native of the Emerald lale but for a number of years past has resided tn this city Shei s the wife of Patrick watchman for C IL McCormick Co It appears from the evidence that three or four davs ago Joel Lull Enrolling Officer under Conscription for the Seventh AVard in the course of his duly callet at the house where the on the comer of Polt and streets ani not Sliding the man at home sought from the wife the facts he desired to his complete Instead ot answering the verv reasonable inquiries of the polite official Mrs McCafferty seized a bootjack and threatened to brain Mr Lull on the spot if he did not clear himself ont of the house The officer not desiring auy trouble left intending to call when hfc hoped to find the man at Accordingly on Thursday he again went to tbe ho use and were heard approaching and left precipitately Stocks was a courageous and brave man and he had made himself feared bv these cowardly wretches who it is supposed are every one deserters from the Illinois He had been severe on some of them for abuse and insults they had given his family in lib absence and three old men last fall two of whom were Ids relations These old and Williams were witnesses against tbe K G C at tbe time of the expose last fall when Allen and Duff were arrested and some ol this same gang got them out from their bouses on the pretest of wanting them for witnesses and takine them to tbe woods stripped them to the skin and whipped them in a most brutal manner Stocks had reprimanded them for this brutality and for this and the fact that he was a they killed him Ou the same night of Stocks death another good Union man John Emerson died in tbe same neighborhood from wounds received three before while out in the woods hunting his cattle Eleven halls uis one killed This is not the work of a single nor is it the result of a neighborhood Gangs of men ten or fifteen strong patro the for the purpose of from behind trees and fences man who is known to be for the Government and so the matter rests all of these desperadoes belonged to the Illinois and when they deserted which they basely did almost in k body they took blankets uniforms and guns with them Tbe county we are told is supplied with Government blankets and when they go on murderous expeditions put on their United States and carry with them their stolen muskets and stolen ammunition What shall be done with these men is the great question They are as hostile as they can be to the Government and they mean to give it and those who adhere tn it all tbe trouble they can They do not hesitate to shoot men down in cold blood nut inn depends He was warring upon the the military jurisdiction tu lay hands upon him If Jlr V was not damaging the military power of the then his arrest was made on a fact which I would be glad to correct on reasonable and evidence I understand the meeting resolutions in of the P oppression of the rebellion by military force and bv Long experience has shown that armies cannot be desertion shall he punished hv the ol death The case requires and the law and the sanction this I shoot a simple-minded soldier boy who while I mnss not touch a hair of a wily agitator who Induces Mm to This is none the less injurious when effected by getting a or brother or friend into a public meeting and there working upon his feelings he is to write the soldier bov that he is in a bad cause and fora weak administration of a contemptible Government too weak to arrest and punish him If be shall j think that in such a case to silence the the bovis not only constitutional but withal a great merer After reviewing the suspension of the the President And ret laj me sav tbat in my own I do not know whether I wonld have Ordered the arrest of Vallandigham While t cannot shift the responsibility from myself hold that as a general rule the commander in the field U the better of the in particular case Of course I must practice a general directory and revi power in the matter resolutions expresses the opinion of tbe meelins that arbitrary arrests will have the effect to divide and distract those who should be united in suppressing the rebellion and I am specifically called on to discharge Mr Tal nndigham I regard this act as at least a fair appeal to me on the expediency of exercising a constitutional power which I think exists In to such appeal I have to say that it gave pain when I eric In ai the s And bt it tbe of trpin the and frontier and handred -t ports which have been or cur be opened or in Sectored to
