The tremendous political demon
stration in Baltimore on Wednesday
night, shows with what rapidity the
Emancipation movement is rushing on
to success. When the citizens of Balti
more a city that mobbed Union troops
on the way to defend the capital of their
Government cheer mottoes like the fol
lowing, "Away with Slavery," "Down
with Slavery and up with Human Rights,'
and applaud transparencies with figures
of negro soldiers represented as saying,
" I gibs it to de Copperheads," " I fight
far de Union,'' the divine institution may
be regarded as finished in that locality.
The truth is, as one of the mottoes dis
played at the meeting of which we speak
tersely expressed it, "No Slavery is
dead its treason killed it." The Kerr
tucky papers may froth and foam at the
mouth as they please, they cannot check
the decrees of fate, and those citizens of
that State who have gone into the negro
business running contrabands from
Missouri and hiring white scoundrels in
the free States to kidnap, and deposit in
Kentueky jails negroes who have been
freed by the President's Proclamation
with the idea that they will have a mo
nopoly of the slave trade after the war is
over, are reckoning without their host
Kentncky will never have the privilege
of filling up the rebel States with negroes
at large prices, and every slave run into
that State from other Sou thernStates will
only make her situation the more un
pleasant, if not dangerous. MissonTl,
Maryland and Delaware will soon be free
States. Tennessee is already a free State
to all intenrs and purposes. East Ten
nessee is free by the voluntary action of
her inhabitants; and Middle and West
Tennessee will be free by the President's
Proclamation and the action of our ar
mies. The sooner our Kentucky neigh
bors shape their business affairs for the
new order of things, the easier will it be
for them to endure the change for the
better.
The Studekt akd Schoolmate for No
vember has reached us. It will prove
as acceptable to the little folks as its
predecessors. " Oliver Optic's" stories
are a rich mine of enjoyment and our
little people never tire of reading them,
or hearing them read. The Student and
Schoolmate ought to have a good circu
lation in our city. Price $1, a year.

We learn through a private note
that Dr. N. S. Wilson, late U. S. Consul
at La Union, Central America, died on
the 16th ultimo, on the steamship Gua
temala, while on his return home. Mr.
Wilson was a resident of Posey county.
Comfort for the Rockfort " Demo

Several in (Jhio and one or two in this
State have "gone up," and several others
are " going up."
The Copperhead organs are
earnestly urging Republicans to volun
teer. They are not satisfied that nine
out of every ten soldiers now in the
army are for sustaining the Administra
tion, because they are yet in the minori.
ty at home. The war will never go
right with the Copperheads until enough
Union men volunteer to leave them in
the majority.

We hope not. We have a great admi

can't go an unconstitutional Union man.
"Why don't the A hoi

The vote of the Ohio and Iowa soldiers
indicate that a few Abolitionists have
volunteered. If the Copperheads are for
putting down the rebellion, as they
assert, why don't some of them volun

in the army.
The mother of a little fellow
who was about taking a ride in the Hart

your mother before you go? ' The little

n't stop, and hastily cried out, "Con
ductor, wont you kiss mother for me?"

The Columbus (Kv.) War Eagle states
t&at on the 16th, Lieu:. Dearborn, 2d
Tennessee artillery, left Island No. 10,
with forty mounted men of the 32d Iowa
in charge of Lieut. Leash, and proceed
ed across the river toward Tiitouville,
wiere he discovered sundry wag'on-loada
of goods, which, upon examination,
proved to be salt, powder, boots and
shoes, and other articles en route to the
interior. There were five or six men
with each team, apparently unarmed,
and who, on being questioned, exhibited i
permits written, with a lead pencil with
the word u Approved " written across j
t:ie face with ink, but accompanied by
no signature either to permits or approv- ,
al The goods had been purchased in '
New Madrid, so it was said, and ferried
across the river. Before entering Tip- '
tonville our force was divided, Lieut. :
Leash taking eight men and going below
the town following the wajrons. Leaving
the others, Lient Dearborn followed with
part of the force, and, alter leaving a
guard with one of the wagons, proceeded
u. :i ft. T-t,,;n'
... . '
they saw some .io or 4U guerrillas in a
cornfield, upon whom they quickly
charged, running them a mile and a
half, dismounting ten or fifteen and
wojnding several. The guerrillas threw
away their arms, coats, loose blankets,
&c. , and scattered in all directions.
Our forces then retired slowly and
loaded their guns, when they discovered
another party, of about the same num
ber coming in their rear, and heard the
order given to charge. Lieut. Dearborn
then ordered his men to dismount, when
the guerrillas fired into them and scat
tered. Our men returned the fire, dis
mounting several of the guerrillas, re
mounted their own horses, and fell back
toward Tiptonville, followed by the guer
rillas "at a distance. Throughout the
whole affair our men behaved nobly.jj
Lieut Leash, who had only eight men
had fallen back a mile and a half from ;
Tiptonville, where he was joined by :
Lieut. Dearborn. The men were then ,
divided under the two leaders and enter-
ed Tiptonville at two different places. ,
Just as he was going into town Lieut-
, , ., ... .!
Dearborn discovered the guerrillas in
, , , , , . -i
ambusli, and again charged upon them,
j- e . , i
dismounting four or five and wounding
, iv , , j r
several, as we afterwards learned from L
the citizens. 1 wo of our men, a iSar- i
geant and one private, were slightly
wounded. One musket was hit and split !
open with a minie ball. One rebel oris- !
oner was taken; Capt Bradford a notori- '
ous thief and kidnapper.
This reconnoisance will prove of great
advantage, for the fact has been develop"
ed that there has been a large amount of
smuggling, or something worse, carried
on from New Madrid, or at least via
New Madrid Bend, and Tiptonville, and
that the goods have gone directly into
the possession of guerrillas. The Eagle
thinks it is scarcely probable that the
smuggling has been done byway of New
Madrid, bnt it is likely that goods have
been floated down fvSt. James Bayou,
which enters the Mississippi just above
General Smith and Capt. Williams are
doing all in their power to put ah end
to such transactions, and if there were
only some co-operation on the other side,
something might be accomplished.
nmoh of the smuggling has been done
from Cape Girardeau; goods have been
brought, via Benton, to St. James Bayou
and floated'down
A company of caval-
ry stationed along this stream would put '
a stop to smuggling by that route at
least.
Had the guerrillas not been met with, j
as stated inthe foregoing narrative, itws
the intention of Lieutenants Dearborn j
and Leach to get ahead of the train,
turn it around, and bring it back to Col
umbus, but they were prevented from
doing thiai as already described. Lieut
Troop, with a detachment ot the Provost
Guard, made quite a haul back of Wolf
Island a few days ago.
Copperhead Papers Seized. We learn
from the New Orleans Era, of the 20th
inst, that Officer Curren, of the Provost
Guard, on the 19th made a seizure of
about two dozen copies of the New York
Caucasian, the circulation of which pa
per is not permitted in that city. The
cook of the steamer George Washington,
it seems, not being satisfied with the
wages he received from the steamer,
thought to go into a little mercantile
speculation of his own. He formed a
stock company, which included other em
ployees of the same steamer; for the pur-
pose of bringing out a few hundred cop -
les of the Caucasian to sell here to news-
boys at iO cents per dozen, the news
boys, as a class, are in for anything that
will pay, and they very readily purchase
the papers of any one who brings them
to market, at 75 cents per dozen. They
are then offered on the sly to known reb
els, who are charged according to their
intensity of political faith. A half-and-half
sort of rebel gets them at 40 cents
apiece, the price stiffening as the charac
ter of the purchaser approaches to a
blind worship of Jeff, until the out-and-eetier
the man who is foolish enough
e fclieve everything published in the
Caucasian is frequently made to pay
$2.50 for one. The newsboys are intel
ligent, observing little fellows, and know
all about every man in the city who has
been there three weeks, and can tell to
a nicety how much of a rebel an old cus
tomer is, and how much he will pay for
"the only copy of the Cavcasian left in
the city."
Officer Curren took charge of all he
could find, and made the unlicensed
merchant cook refund the 75 cents that
he had just received from a boy for a
dozen. Many of them had, however,
been sold, and scattered all over the city
by the newsboys, who have made a very
fair spec, by investing.
The Caucasian always contains a vast
amount of comfort for a rebel Eng
land and France have positively recog
nized the Confederacy; the rebel loan is
bound to reach a high premium; the na
vies of all the world are about to be
placed at Jeff's disposal; in short, the
Caucuxi.ni is more ridiculous than the

HELP FOR SOLDIERS' FAMILIES.
In Marion county tho farmers are
alive to the importance of providing for
the families of the soldier?, and as a an
pie of the feeling that exists, and which
is worthy of imitatiou by the farmers of
Vanderburg county, we publish the fol-
lowing appeal, which appears in the In
dianapolis papers of Wednesday:
Loyal Friends: We address the Far- j
mers ot Marion county. We nave a
great abundance this year of the boun
ties of earth. In our quiet homes let us
not forget the needy. While we are en
joying home and its comforts let us re
member the soldiers, and especially let
us remember their families. This is go
ing to be a cold, hard winter for .hem.
The city of Indianapolis has given $5,
000; its individual citizens have given
much, and are giving more every day.
Let us do our duty also. Some of us
... , J 1 , .
j have not felt it, and we can give more ,
and not feel it It is our duty to give, I
: and it is a joy to give. Then let us, on 1
' Saturday, November th, make a dem- '.
onstralion of our feelings for the soldiers.
On that day let every farmer in Marion
county 2 to Indianapolis with a load of
p
someihii.j for their families wood, po-
,' taloes, a' Ies, flour, meal, beans, meat,
I or any ol -r kind of provisions that may
j be on hai. ".. The teams will all get as
' near the State House as possible, on
Tennessee street Each person will
i p'.eaae have his name on a card, with the
: amount of the articles he contributes.
These cards will all be collected at 11
; o'clock by James Blake, Sen., wi-.o has
kindly consented to direct the day's pro
1 ceedings. On behalf of the soldiers in
the field, those farmers who contribute
will be thanked in a aeat little speech by
a wounded soldier, now at home ; and
perhaps Gov. Morton may also have a
few words to say. Come up, friends.
Let it be a proud day for the farmers of
t Marion county.
The contributions will each be ac
: knowledged in the daily papers.

. .Axr.roii A mmt distress
ing acciaeDt occurred on Saturday eve
ning at the Marine Railway, on the river
bank just west of this city. There is a
heavv iron shaft, some five or six inches
'n thickness, which is fixed a few feet
irom tne grounu unuer, iue ways, ai
ways
the time of drawing up boats, or launch
ing, this shaft revolves. On Saturday
afternoon, a few minutes before the time
to quit work, and while the shaft was in
operation preparatory to launching a
boat, a number of children gathering
chips were ordered to keep out of the
way, it being exceedingly dangerous to
be passing about over the works when
the machinery is going. Among those
who happened to be present on this oc
casion were two little girls, children of
Mr. Aultz, a German living on Presby
terian avenue, below Cemetery street.
They had come, as was their custom, to
pick chips, when one of them Emile,
the younger, aged about nine years in
passing over the ways, was caught in the
shaft, and drawn into the machinery.
Her sister Caroline, aged about thirteen,
fiew at once to her rescue, and she was
also caught, in the shaft. The alarm
spreading among the workmen, as soon
as possible the engine was stopped, but
not until the limbs of the unfortunate
girls had been dreadfully mangled and
their clothing almost entirely Stripped
from their bodies. Upon removing them
from the shaft it was found that Emile's
right arm, from shoulder to elbow, was
smashed as it were into a perfect jelly,
the bone being shivered in Beveral places.
Her right side was also severely injured,
I.... t.4- : 1

j opinion that she could not possibly re
cover. Uaroline, tne eldest, had her
ankle disjointed and one of Ler legs
broken below the knee. Her injuries
are so great that amputation of the en
tire limb, it is said, will be necessary.
The sufferings of the unfortunate girls,
as may well be supposed, are terrible,
and the poor father, who has been for
some time in ill health, was yesterday
lying prostrate in bed, almost crazed
with grief on account of the accident that
had befallen his daughters. Madisxm

cate that Bragg is moving in large force
upon Cleveland, Tennessee, with the evi
dent intention of breaking through our
lines in that direction.
It is generally believed here that this
movement is co-operated in by a portion
of Lee's forces from Virginia moving
down by the way of Lynchburg and Bris
tol, Va., with the intention of driving
Burnside from East Tennessee, and turn
ing the flank of this army, and thus com
pelling its retirement from Chattanooga.

to know from the peculiar anatomy of the eye the
nature of the defect, whether arising from weak
