A sinall boy in the crowd in a squealing voice sung out—“O, that's played out!” White. sides attempted to be sarcastic on the young imp, which struck the risibles of the crowd and a series of rising andfulling borse-laughs fullowed fur a few minutes. I: would stop a moment, and then recommence-witb irresiatable vivience. Whitesides vebemeritly declared ‘he“did not come here to be madea laughing stock of,” whereat another burst of gufaw followed. “Call me what you please” said he ina loud volee—“I am ready to offer up my life on this scaffuld to save’ this Union.” “I'titurnish the rope,” aside clear. voicé?in the crowd. Another series of laughs lollowed. Whitesides said the Repubdlicans had created a debt of two thousand inilfions of dollars. The laughs were res doubled, He said the Republicais would net listen te Democtatic truths! Here the liughs were long aud stenturian: He spoke to the dear miners about the Administra tion having designe upon their claims. This was too ludicrous fur the preservation of the gravity of the buys, and cachination became general> Some of. the imported bullies who came for the preservation of free speech ran around and were geing to stop the laughing—as if old citizens of the town have not as geod a right to laugh in their own streets at anything ridiculous when Whitesides is here, as Whitesides has to be hers when they are laughing. Free coustry, you kaow, to lsugh in, as well ad speak in—so the beys thought and they didot hold their sides, or noses tu suppress the irrepressible snicker. Whitesides said he did not learn his letters till he was seventeen years old, which may account for his wgnorances Alluding to Stephen A. Doug~ of Douglas remarked it. was not. ‘the ‘first (. happy child? go. He was not much interrupted and produced nothing new. His speech was too stale for any elicitation but that of yawning. He alluded to.the interruptions of the even-~ ing and quoted what he ssid wasa Persian p evecrh, aout wrongs, like ehickens, coming home to roost, but he was altegether too dumb to see the seal applicationThe com. ing home part of the proverb was exempli~ fied in the trénsactions of the night. Perhaps Mr. Bradford will remember when bis kind ir, Steckten would not aliow Rev. Mto treat him to their favorite amusement of “toasting in a blanket2? Perhaps his sort may nut have forgotten, how Bates was driven from the stand in Sacramriito; how Sergent was hooted and yelled atin 1856; how Democratic presses upheld the proeeedings : ard perhaps Dibbie way not have forgotten hew he aud bis kind abused the privilege of free diseussion at Grass Valley, when Johu A. Collina attempted to discuss political issues there; and. perhaps, some of the De~ meocracy of Nevada mav recollect the insults offered to Chase and Broderick when they first essayed tospeak in Nevada. The curses are coming home to roust,niw, and as Mr. Bradford likes his proverb, be ought nut t» object to its applicati ne When this war is over, peghaps, ail parties will be even with each ether in this mutter, and will cry quits, having learned a little wisdum from experience. : ; Jupex Be.pen was called to the stand at midnight and woke the crowd up with a remark ortwo. Deafeuing cheers were given fur Abe. Lineoth, the Ui n as it will be, and several otaer things not palatable tu seceasiunists, and thus the copperhead meeting of the canvases ended. If the ones who call. ed the meeting here, are satisfied, the Union meu are deci iedly so. soe TrRaGepy.—F rom an eye witness anda citizen of the town of Elizabethtown, Hardin county, (Iil.,) I learn the following particulars ofa feartul tragedy enacted in that place something over a week ago. Elizabethtown, the county seat of Hardin county, is situated on the banks o: the Ohio river, abuut twenty: five wiles below Shawneetown. Among the rest were two brothers named Belford.— They belong to a family of bullies, who have been a disgrace to the neighborhood tor many ‘years, and who have made a.living by run. ning down and eatehing or killing runaway negroes from Kentucky. Each runaway caught would when taken back to his mas~ ter, pay them from one te three hundred dollars. I hardly need tell you that they were thoroughly secesh, and that their bute was equally divided between ‘niggerism’ and *‘Abulitionists.’ Outhe day retered to, a seldier from the twenty-ninth Illinois bap~ pened in town. He had been taken prisoner in Tennessee and parceled aud waa then on ais way to St. ‘Lwuis to report. I regret that I could not learn his name. As soon as the Belfurds got sight of his uniform they resolved on mischief. None of Uncle Sam's boys should peacefully breathe the same atbere with them. They dogged bis footsteps).and damred “the Abulitivnists” in his hearing. At length one of them asked him what hie principles were. Weil, he‘said in reply that he didnot know that bis principles were diferent, materially, from other men’s. He saidghe was fot ~his country his Ged and hineself.’ They then ene@:ingly said he belouged to the “d—d Abolition army,” and they suspected that he was “a dd Abolitioust” hunself, and that they “could whip any son uf awho belonged to Old Abe's . army.” ‘The soldier perceiving that these fellows were thirsting for his b'ood and that . the odds were against him in case of « figit, evaded a direct issue as much as possible. After a little more talk in the same strain as above, vne of the B ifords boldly charged him with being an “Abulitionist,” to which he replied,“ Youare a liar.” At this the Belfurda out with their knives and plunged at hun. He dodged them and seizing a hatchet that enme in the way, felled them buth to the earth.--One of them died ina few hours alter, and the other wag at the point of death when last beard from.—Chicago Journal, Apr 6th. Seeneel A Cuitv's Laucurer.—Is there anys thing like the ringing laugh of an innocent, Canany other music 80 echo through the hearts of inner chambers? It is sympathetic, too, beyond other melodies. When the father site absorbed over his . books, which seem to concentrate every f.eulty. he heard his little boy laughing in his sports, and laughs also, he knows not wherefore. The bright child being contioually gathering intelligerce, casts round us of thought aud pearls of affection, till our paths of storm is Tue Rignt SenTiments.—There never was Tight eentiment more forcibly uttered than the foliowing by Gen. Logan, 1 Demo-~ erat of Hilinois ands hero in thie war. Read bis remarks. every body. — If the at the North would use the samie force Jeff Davis and his minions use, and were a8 unanimous as they are—for in the South force of arms compels every man to sct as though he sanctioned the rebellion, whether he feels inclined or not—this war would be successfully terminated in less than six months. Every mother’s son whe i220. tu the war should be compelle el~ ther take up arms against ji or for us. Then there would be no talk of peace bere in the North, nq talk of resistance; no snch men as Vallaudigham. no such cowards as those who snpport all such men, and says these things. Vallandigham seys he has traveled over the Confederacy— using the term ‘Con~ fvderacy’-—net the phrase ‘so-called Confed~ eracy (for I do not acknowledge the existence of any authority orGovernment in America aside from that of the United States) does not enstain the war, and whe ig not de termined to fight it out to the death or the bitter end: Vallandigham here simply liesJeff. Davis, Toombs and Stephens—did not, I venture te say, speak with a dozen persons while taking bis involuntary -trip through Dixie. Had he done so hia report wou have been of a diflerent color, The people who are fighting against this Goveroment— the poor whites comprising the rank and file of the vebellion—name-tenths of them de not know what they are fightiag tor—do not knew what they are fighting against. A majority of them do not know anything—and huuireds of them never saw the American flag in their lives until they saw it mareh into Vicksburg intriumph. They do pot knew the Fourth of July, or anythingh else that is geod. But poor and ignorant as they ate, let them express their own free minds, and they will, almost to a man, demand a speedy termination of this war —would submit to als most anything rather than fight ove day longer as they have been fighting. It is only by the force of bayonets that their army is kept together. Even thet cannot Loti t eir deserters from flocking into Jackson by. hundreds, te take the wath of allegiance or to jein the Union -ranks, And I tell you what. I kndw when I say it will nut be man days ere the entire States of Missiesippi Tennessee will be knocking loudly for readmission to a Uncon which not long dlokly diet thought their puny effurts could qu diss selve. They are talking of it even now. Speaking of being united, I tell you, by the Eternul God there was never a more t ful sentence than that of Douglas, “Those reiterate it, and add that those who ete pot. with us should be hung. or should be with their Southern brethren, fighting with them. Let them either sid the Government or go where they ean bulster up the tottering fortunes of rebeldom. Better have s dozen foes in the fight that ene fighting us our backs. To all copperhewds, Pesce men. agitators, anti-war men—be they Republicans or Demoersts—ior we have them bere, pretending to be both—I have a word to say on the behalf of our brave soldiers. And you have undéubtedly been told that the war has its o rs in the ranks of the Union army. I¢ is an accursed ane foul upon tie fxir faine of men who are willing to spill their blood—give their lives fot the country. They are for our Union, They fight fur the peoyle and their country—for the supptession ef the febellion. Let me say to all opposers of this war, the time will come when mes eomposing this great army will come to their homes. They have watehed the drogresa of events with interest. They have had their eyes open apon these uninitigated cowards, these o nts of the cevuntry and the Adininistration—(and the Adwinisttation, I contend, is the country mary manner in which they.qill cause these these. eneaks and peace agitétors to hunt -theipholes. = INSURRECTION.—Ainong the warlike: incidents ot the Polish i: surrection, the battle of Wengrow furnished ons of thrilling mterest.

One fellow asked him who gate him his mines. ‘The reply was classic, honorable to Senatorial dignity —‘not you, G-~d d—n yet’ “Gintleman,” said this imported copperhead,—*‘yintlemun, and when I aay ginteaun, I mean Dinnnycrants and not G--d . d—n biack Raypublieans,’ (here rears of laughter, groans, hisses, catcal!s,-and other: approbatory expressions broke out spontaneously, amid which wae #een the spectacle of a huge shock-head, getting raging livid in the tace and the place where putatoes and whisky are hidden wide open and uot for the purpose of taking nutriment.) “Bell” and Dibble went off the stand, in a cundition t., realize the truth of the expression—‘‘united we stand; divided we don’t.” Some time af. ter they were seen being boosted into a cart ready for departure.

A sinall boy in the crowd in a squealing voice sung out—“O, that's played out!” White. sides attempted to be sarcastic on the young imp, which struck the risibles of the crowd and a series of rising andfulling borse-laughs fullowed fur a few minutes.

Whitesides vebemeritly declared ‘he“did not come here to be madea laughing stock of,” whereat another burst of gufaw followed. “Call me what you please” said he ina loud volee—“I am ready to offer up my life on this scaffuld to save’ this Union.” “I'titurnish the rope,” aside clear. voicé?in the crowd. Another series of laughs lollowed. Whitesides said the Repubdlicans had created a debt of two thousand inilfions of dollars. The laughs were res doubled, He said the Republicais would net listen te Democtatic truths!

bullies who came for the preservation of free speech ran around and were geing to stop the laughing—as if old citizens of the town have not as geod a right to laugh in their own streets at anything ridiculous when Whitesides is here, as Whitesides has to be hers when they are laughing. Free coustry, you kaow, to lsugh in, as well ad speak in—so the beys thought and they didot hold their sides, or noses tu suppress the irrepressible snicker.

Elizabethtown, the county seat of Hardin county, is situated on the banks o: the Ohio river, abuut twenty: five wiles below Shawneetown. Among the rest were two brothers named Belford.— They belong to a family of bullies, who have been a disgrace to the neighborhood tor many ‘years, and who have made a.living by run. ning down and eatehing or killing runaway negroes from Kentucky. Each runaway caught would when taken back to his mas~ ter, pay them from one te three hundred dollars. I hardly need tell you that they were thoroughly secesh, and that their bute was equally divided between ‘niggerism’ and *‘Abulitionists.’ Outhe day retered to, a seldier from the twenty-ninth Illinois bap~ pened in town. He had been taken prisoner in Tennessee and parceled aud waa then on ais way to St. ‘Lwuis to report. I regret that I could not learn his name. As soon as the Belfurds got sight of his uniform they resolved on mischief. None of Uncle Sam's boys should peacefully breathe the same atbere with them. They dogged bis footsteps).and damred “the Abulitivnists” in his hearing. At length one of them asked him what hie principles were. Weil, he‘said in reply that he didnot know that bis principles were diferent, materially, from other men’s. He saidghe was fot ~his country his Ged and hineself.’ They then ene@:ingly said he belouged to the “d—d Abolition army,” and they suspected that he was “a dd Abolitioust” hunself, and that they “could whip any son uf awho belonged to Old Abe's . army.” ‘The soldier perceiving that these fellows were thirsting for his b'ood and that . the odds were against him in case of « figit, evaded a direct issue as much as possible. After a little more talk in the same strain as above, vne of the B ifords boldly charged him with being an “Abulitionist,” to which he replied,“ Youare a liar.” At this the Belfurda out with their knives and plunged at hun.

Read bis remarks. every body. — If the at the North would use the samie force Jeff Davis and his minions use, and were a8 unanimous as they are—for in the South force of arms compels every man to sct as though he sanctioned the rebellion, whether he feels inclined or not—this war would be successfully terminated in less than six months.

Then there would be no talk of peace bere in the North, nq talk of resistance; no snch men as Vallaudigham. no such cowards as those who snpport all such men, and says these things. Vallandigham seys he has traveled over the Confederacy— using the term ‘Con~ fvderacy’-—net the phrase ‘so-called Confed~ eracy (for I do not acknowledge the existence of any authority orGovernment in America aside from that of the United States) does not enstain the war, and whe ig not de termined to fight it out to the death or the bitter end: Vallandigham here simply liesJeff.

A majority of them do not know anything—and huuireds of them never saw the American flag in their lives until they saw it mareh into Vicksburg intriumph. They do pot knew the Fourth of July, or anythingh else that is geod. But poor and ignorant as they ate, let them express their own free minds, and they will, almost to a man, demand a speedy termination of this war —would submit to als most anything rather than fight ove day longer as they have been fighting.
