    —————
in secret caucus, with closed and guarded
doors. A delegation from this caucus pro
ceeded to Hamilton on Wednesday morn
ing, to welcome Mr Vaiiandigbam, and
take part in the Grand Council to be held
at that place.
As an incident in the programme, it
might be stated that the Cincinnati En
quirer, on Sunday morning, contained an
article of a most inflammatory and danger
ous character, to ail intents and purposes,
exerting the people of Kentucky to unite
with John Morgan, and resist the tyranny
of the Federal Government. This article
was so dangerous in irs character that Maj
Gen. Heintzelman promptly suppressed
that part of the edition which was designed
for circulation in Kentucky.
—A letter in the Boston Advertiser
gives the following incident as having oc
curred during the vote in Congress on the
abolition of slavery by the Constitutional
'amendment. It will be seen that our va
liant Gen. Coffroth has at. last'moved on
the enemy's works,' with what success our :
readers can judge:
'As Joseph lJaiiey of Pennsylvania, one !
of the four Democrats who had the patriot- J
ism to vo'c for the constitutional amend- I
rnenfc prohibiting Slavery, was answering
to his name on that question, a Copper
head, his colleague Coffroth, who was pas
sing at the time, laid his hand heavily up
on Bailey's head, and drew it down over
his face, accompanying the action with
words abusive of Bailey's vote and not fit
to be printed. Buily suddenly lorgetting
his Quaker principles, seized Coffroth, who
is much the larger man, bv the collar,
drew his head down, aud dealt him a pow
erful blow under the ear, which sent him
reeling against the opposite desk. Cof !
froth laid down his arms.'
Daviscyination. —lnstances are common j
of the most afflictive separation of lamily j
relations by this unnatural war. Brothers, {
and even parents and children, are found \
in the ranks of the hostile armies. One |
ot the most touching cases of this kind I
is that of a son of the Confederate Presi !
dent Jefferson Davis, who is serving in the i
National cau-e on the gunboat Carondolet, I
fighting to crush the Rebellion which his
father is leader of. The Davis junior is
the sen ot Eliza, Lte a slave to the patri- |
archal Davis. An officer of the army of j
Vicksburg who had heard the fact, verified !
it from Eliza's lips. llow sharper than a :
serpent's tooth must be the grief of that
parent whom unrelenting fate compels to
take sides against his own son in a war for '
freedom!
1 be rebel editors turn with imploring
looks to their "Northern friends" in this '
hour of trial to come to the rescue and
break down the wall of fire which is en
circling them :—"There is no doubt," says
the Atlanta Intelligencer,"that there are, in
the Western States, a large number of men
opposed to the abolition war. The vote
in Ohio, during the last gubernatorial elec !
tion, exhibited the fact that over 200,000 |
voters in that State were opposed to the •
war, and if the flames of insurrection will
only spread over Illinois, we feel certain
that thousands of Ohioans will join the
nielee. Nothing could give us greater sat I
isfaction than the sight of the Copper !
heads eugaged in cutting the throats of j
Lincoln's hirelings."
THE
Excellent Summer Drinks.
CORN DRINK.
A Yankee girl sends us the following :
To five gallons of cold water, add one qt. I
of sound corn and two quarts of molasses.
Put into a keg. Shake well, and in two
or three days it will be fit. for use. Bung
tight. It may be flavored with essence of
spruce or lemon. The corn will last to
make five or six brewings. If it becomes
sour, add more molasses and water. It is '
cheap and simple beer, aud is called very
good. * ;
GINGER BEEIt
Take of ginger bruised or sliced, one i
and a half ounce; cream of tartar, one
ounce; loaf sugar, one pound; one lemon, ;
sliced; put them into a pan. and pour six'
quarts ot boiling water upon them —When
nearly cold, put in a little yeast, and stir
it lor about a minute. Let it staud till
next day, then strain and bottle it. It is
fit to drink in three days, but will not
keep good longer than a fortnight. The
corks should be tied down, and the bottles
placed upright in a cool place.
FINE MEAD.
Beat to strong troth the whites of three
eggs, and mix them with six gallons of
water; sixteen quarts of strained honey,
and the yellow rind of two dozen lar-e
lemons, pared very thin. Boil all together 1
during three quarters of an hour skimming
it well. Then put it into a tub, and when
lukewarm add three tablespooufulls of the
best fresh yeast. Cover it, and leave to
ferment. \\ hen it has done working,
transfer it to a barrel, with the lemon
peel in the bottom. Let it stand 6ix months
then bottle it.
TO CONDENSE MILK FOR THE SOLDIERS.
We find the following in an exchange :
quarts of new milk in a ves
sel over a slow fire, stir it to prevent burn
ing, until it is about the thickness of cream,
add une pound of sugar, a little at a time,
stirring constantly till it becomes thick and
stiff, then spread on plates and dry in the
oven or sun, and powder it with a knife
or spoon. It can be sent in papers and
serves for both milk and sugar when dis
solved in coffge or tea. Let our dairy wo
men try it, and they will get the thanks of
the "sanitary" and the soldiers.

DERP.V TOWNSHIP, March, 1864.
Mr. Joseph Swyers—After my best respects !
to you, this is to let you know that I have ;
been troubled with chills for the last fifteen
years, some of them so hard that 1 thought 1 I
could not live over night. I was fur days i
and nights not able to go out. Last fall they |
came on again as usual, and having about
half a bottle of your liniment about the ;
house, I thought I would try it, and took
about 20 drops night and morning for some ■
time from the time I took it I have never !
had one chill, and can say that I never had l
used any medicine that gave so much satis I
faction as your liniment. Your ob't servant,
Adam liaird.
March 28th, 18G4.
Mr. J. Swyers: My son had a sore neck
for three months buck, for which I used your
liniment, and it is a perfect cure. He also i
had a sore leg for two years back ; I got one
of your bottles of liniment, which has cured |
it soundly.
Yours, respectfully, Charles Mitchell j
FREEDOM FORGE, March 28, 1864.
Mr. Swyers : 1 recommend your liniment !
to he the best that I ever had in my house. ;
I had a pain in my side lor about 15 years, i
and 1 doctored with doctors far and near! !
but they done me no good, when I heard of j
your liniment, tried it, and I am thankful to |
say it has cured me sound and well ; and 1
for the children I could not do without it. !
Hugh's hand were dreadfully cracked open I
with the wind, and he rubbed them with
it, and it has cured them.
Mrs. Margaret E. Summers.
Hugh Summers.
LILLEVSVILLE. Decatur tp.,

Mr. Joseph Swyers : This is to certify that
1 cured my ch id of the diptheria in three
nays with your liniment.
