DROWSED. —Jauies Tenpenay, a boy
about six years old, fell into Kish coquillas
freek, above the old stone mill on Saturday
j 3 ?t while fishing, and was drawn under the
wheel into the main stream. A younger
brother gave the alarm, but all search for
his body proved unavailing until Sunday
alteruoon, when he was ceught by a grap
pling hook below the stone bridge. An
inquest was held by Coroner Miller, the
jury returning a verdict that he came to his
death by accidental drowning.
FOOT BURNT. —llicheson Bratton, Esq.,
one of the Commissioners, had his foot
burnt last week in extinguishing a fire which
broke out iu his meat house at a late hour
at night. It was discovered by some young
men who had been at a party and were re
taining home. The meat was saved with
out much injury, but the smokehouse con
sumed. It was in close proximity to the
house, and but for its timely discovery,
flight have caused a disastrous fire.
&sjT We had another fall of snow on
Monday night and yesterday morning, and
from the appearance ,of the mountains in
the Narrows that i,qdex .$f winter will not
cisappear for a week or two.
Snow mingled with hail and rain, con
tinued to fall yesterday and last night, and
this morning the ground is covered to the
depth of perhaps three inches, with pret
ty cold weather.

The Intended Assassin of President Lin
coln.
Many persons affect to believe that there
no intention to assassinate President Lin
coin before he ~ssuraed the duties of his ofice.
becent developments have not ouly establish
ed that fact, but puiDt direetly to the person
w ' : ° was to perform the bloody deed. A
short time since a Baltimore gambler, named
Lyrne, was arrested in Richmond for keeping
a gambling house, and for his supposed dis
loyalty to the comfederate government. To
P f ove his loyalty, Cyrne summoned Wigfall.

to the confederate cause, but was the captain

[From the New York World.]
Countenancing Treason.
iherc are certain journals here in the
North, which, whether they mean it or not,
are doing all they can to counteract the ef
forts of Governor Andy Johnson and his
coadjutors to re miniate the loyalty of Ten
nessee and the other border states. They
do it by daily holding out that the Repub
licans and abolitionists are the real authors
of this rebellion, iu direct contradiction ic
the declarations of the Tennessee govern
or, in his addresses to the people, that the
rebellion is owing to the deceptions and
machinations of Jeff Davis and his crew.
While Governor Johnson avers that the
rebel leaders had no cause, these prints
represent that they had strong cause. While
he endeavors to infuse confidence, all their
language goes to strengthen distrust.—
While his work is to win back into the Un
ion. their work is to repel from it.
Most assuredly, if it be true that the
dominant party at the North is responsible
for this rebellion, it is unreasonable to ex
pect. that rebels will drop their character
so long as that party is in power; and it
will be in power in every department of
the government until at the very least, the
termination of the present Congress eleveu
months hence. It there was any reason
for taking up arms at the outset, that rea
son still continues. There is no evidence
that the Republican party is willing to
strike out a line of its Chicago platform,
or prepared in any particular to treat sla
very with any more respect or forbearance
than was manifested in their campaign
which elected Lincoln, and which accor
ding to these newspapers, provoked the re
bellion. Governor Johnson stoops to no
such pretence, lfe utters not a word con
veying the faintest idea that the President,
or the Republican members of Congress,
or the majority of the northern peopla,
have changed their sentiments or purposes
so as to better favor southern institutions.
He practices no such deception. lie ad
heres to the truth, and asserts without
reserve or qualification that the Republican
President, the Republican Congress, and
the Republican majority of the northern
people have never violated the constitu
tional rights of the Southern States, and
that all the terrifying language of Jeff
Davis A Co. was a base hypocritical im
posture. He deals in no harsh language
toward any party or any person at the
North, lie tenders the rebellion no salvos
for its guilt. lie holds no rocantations, he
promises no concessions, lie simply tells
the truth of the causelessness and the
wickedness and the madness of secession,
and appeals to reason and conscience and
interest for renewed devotion to the glor
ious old flag.
Of course we are free to admit that there
has been a great deal of improper language
from the hot anti slavery zealots of the
North. We have never been slow to con
demn and denounce it. Put we would
scorn to offer this language or any other
language as an extenuation of the infernal
crime of treasop. tYe would as soon think
of excusing the man for murdering you
and your whole family in cold blood be
cause one of your children treated him
with hard words. It would be just as de
cent to say that your ypung sauce box was
responsible for the murder, as to say our
anti-slavery hot heads arc responsible for
this treason. The abusive language may
be all wrong: but there is an infinite dis
proportion between the provocation and
the retaliation. No right mindsd man
would for a moment think of mentioning
the one in connection with the other in
any manner, —infinitely less of presenting j
them ;n the relation of natural cause and j
effect. Take even the worst of railers —
Philips and Garrison —unwarrantable as
has' been their talk against slaveholders
and against the Constitution which protects :
them, there is yet an immeasurable distance
between their offence and the red handed
traitors against whom the government is
now struggling for its existence. There is j
all the difference between words and acts i
—between articulate breath that simply
sets agape, and the blows that smite very
seat of life. The framers of our Consti
tution knew what they were about when
they ignored all treason but that 'overt act;'
and it is that, above all, to which every
true man in these times will direct his un
sparing denunciations.
Guilt rests where the actual crime was
committed. To go back of that is idle.—
Put if we were to inquire into the ulti
mate conditions which made the crime a
practical thing, we do not think it would
fare well with the newspapers in question.
Grant that it was the violent abolition talk
of the North that so excited the popular
mind of the South as to make it easy for
the southern conspirators to fire it into as
sent to any traitorous work, yet the ques
tion co nies' back : Who was it that ac
quainted the southern people with this ab
olition talk, and caused them to believe
that it expressed the ruling feeling of the
North ? It was notoriously the same north
ern journals that are now seeking to light
en up the responsibility of the rebel lead
ers by imputing the original guilt to the
North. Their standard mode of party war
fare was to catch up, on the instant, every
hot fanatical utterance and blazon it forth
as a genuine specimen of the spirit and
purpose of the party seeking power. The
people of the North knew better, and
elected the Republican candidates by over
whelming majorities. But the people of
the South, among whom no other northern
journals circulated, knew no better. They
believed what they read, and were thus
prepared to become thle tools of the disun
ion plot. We say then that whatever guilt
may attaeh to the anti-slavery ultras .of the
Norti, a greater guilt attaches to those
who yircuiated their tirades where they
couid do the most harm —nay, iar greater
guilt, for there was the atrocious falsehood
added that those tirades expressed the
mind of Abraham Lincoln and the party
which supported him. It thesa
declaimcrs are in any sense the authors of
this rebellion, then these northern editors
were the abettors of it; for without them
the abolition talk would have made net im
pression.
Hut it is all superfluous i:> go back upon
these matters. It is enough that we know
that the actual perpetrators of the treason
are now at the head of the councils and
the armies of the 1 confederacy.' All true
men will acknowledge that they deserve
the severest punishment, and v.iii net sy
one word to shield them from it. All true
men, too, will cordially second the efforts
of the government to disabuse the betray
ed people of their delusions, and to cou
> iiice them that .hey can live peaceably
and securely with the North under the un
broken shelter of the Constitution erected
by their fathers and our fathers, lie who
teaches to the contrary, directly or indi
rectly, we care not whether he calls him
self conservative or radical, a public ene
my.
Revival m Regiment. —The Sixty-third
Pennsylvania Regiment, (Jolonel Alexander
Hays, now in service at the South, has had
quite a revival of religion. Most of the mem
bers are from Pittsburg. A correspondent
thus describes taking the sacrament: "A
small rude table was used ; common bread,
wine mnde of grape jelly and water, and two
glasses were placed in the centre. Our tents
were lighted by three candles, swung from
the centre. Familiar words were well*sung.
A few introductory remarks apd a
then eight stalwart soldiers kneeled around
the table and were baptized ; the bread and
wine were then passed to communicants ; even
outside the tents all eager to obey the com
mand, " This do, in remembrance of me."—
Everybody was weeping; twenty nine joined
on profession, the whole membership now be
ing one hundred and eighty.eight. We had
sweet singing while Elder Dunks (Captain)
and myself distributed the sacramental ele
meats."

Warning to Minors. —U. S. Commissioner
Tuttlc has recently decided in a case before
him that a minor, falsely representing him
self without parents living or legal guardian,
and thereby becoming enlisted in the military
or naval of the United States, with
the view of receiving the advance pay from
the Government, and then getting discharged
on a habeas corpus, commits un offence pun
ishable within the meaning of the acts of Con
gress. The United States authorities have
resolved to put a stop to the intolerable an
noyance of being continually imposed upon
by these minors, who, by these false repre
sentations, get into the service and cause so
much delay and expense to the government.
Singular Case of Hydrophobia. —At New
ton, L. 1., a woman died on last Thursday
evening, alter four days suffering, from hy
drophobia. It is said she was bktcn or
scratched, in January last, by a cat, which it
is supposed had been bitten some time before
by a dog whose aetions placed him under sua
pioions of madness. The cat for some time
acted very strangely, but was supposed to be
only suffer-ng from fits, such as cats are sub
ject to. One day in January last, she sud
denly leaped upon the arm of her mistress,
and held so tightly with Jier plaws, that a
neighbor, who happened to be in the house,
had to use considerable strength to pull the
animal off. The wounds made by the cat's
claws healed up, and no unpleasant conse
qucnees apparently ensued, till Monday of
last week, when a spasmodic attack began,
which was declared by competent physicians
to be deafly hydrophobia in its diameter.
