. An Untimely Resurrection. Mr. Sumner has met with a turn of bad hick. The story is a funny one. Some time ago he read from his scrap book in , the Senate a letter, giving the most bar rowing particulars of the murder of ex- Brigadier General Osband by the rebels, at Skipworth Landing, Mississippi. It was attended with circumstaneesof cruel ty that rivaled the Saint Domingo butch eries, which the Massachusetts Senator has proposed to inflict on us as the penal ty for not giving negroes votes. More over, the murder .of Osband was greatly aggravated in enormity by the fact that he had commanded the Ist Mississippi colored cavalry down to the end of the war. No more thrilling story than this had ev er found its way into the ponderous scrap book. No proof more striking than this could be offered of the hatred of reb els for Union men, and the duty growing out of it of keeping them, now and forev er, 'under the armed heel. In fact, this was Mr. Sumner's capital and unanswera ble case. If any Senator ventured to suggest a relaxation of military rule in the South, " the fate of Osband" silenced him at - once. The " gory locks" of that unlucky brigadier were shaken. by Mr. Sumner in the faces of his colleagues at all kinds of times, seasonable and unsea .. Aonable. Plutarch's Lives and Lemprier e's classical dictionary were diligently searched by Mr.., S. to find some parallels • for the cruel assassination of Osband, and athough no case could be found among either the facts or fictions of antiquity at all approaching:, the brutalities of Skip worth Landing, still a good deal of " diet crick talk" was dressed up, by the aid of those valuable works, to embellish the as sassination of the " colonel of colored cavalry." This went on for a month or more, when, lo ! a most unexpected cir cumstance cancelled the precious leaf of the scrap book, gave the lie to the letter, and dried up in a moment the fountains of Mr. Sumner's eloquence. It turned out that Osband was not dead ! not even wounded, but in lively, jolly health, and, worst of all, using the tongue which Mr. Sumner had described as cold and stiff in the grave, glibly and effectively, to de nounce the radical schemes of that wor thy gentleman and his brethren in Con gress. The news of the brigadier's con tinued existence came from his own pen, and it is with real pleasure that we pre sent a copy of his letter. The more pleasing portions we italicise: "The telegraph informs me that I am a murdered man. I decline the honor. I sin neither shot nor otherwise murder ed. 0 "A letter, dated " Gubb's Rancho, Skip worth's Landing," stating that the coun try was unsafe, and that ex-Federal offi cers were in danger when attending to their pursuits without a body guard, has bren used by Senator Sumner to prove that this country needs Federal assistance to pre serve order. We can do quite well alone. Sonic time about Christmas four non residents of Mississippi and outlaws made a rail upon a Northern merchant and ki'led a negro. The citizens, more than half of whom were returned confederate sol diers, turned out en masse and pursued them one hundred miles. Owincr '' to good horses they escaped. This is the only case of violence that has occurred in this part of Mississippi (containing four large counties) since the surrender. Resigned or mustered out Federal officers of all grades occupy this country as partners of the owners of plantations, are clearing hnd, intend to plant cotton and have no thought of a violent death. This county is safe to law and order, safe to the Union, and the residents are as loyal es Those of any coun ty of the same size in the North not utterly given over to radicalism. Every plantation is being worked; all owners want to hire hands, black or white. Negro men are given from fifteen to twenty five dollars per month, with house rent, full rations, fire wood and a large garden for each family, for five and a half days work per week; negro women, boys and. girls in proportion. About half of the bottom lands and one quarter of the hill lands can obtain hands enough." Mr. Sumner was never a " restoration" man, and the untimely resumption by Os hand of the functions of life will not be likely to increaae his fondness for that ug ly word. :far.Tudge King, of Bedford, Judge Derrickson, of Crawford, Republicans and Judge Elwell, Democrat, have all de cided that Election Boards have no pow er under the law, to refuse the right of suffrage to any person otberwise•qualified, on account of his not reporting under the provisions la the Enrollment Laws or for having deserted from the service. —One hundred and nineteen " citizens of Chester county," in this State, have pe titioned the Rump to do away with dis tinctions on account of race and color.— The sun must set early in that county. —The important controversy between the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and the Atlantic and Great Western Railway has been decided against the latter, the Court granting, an injunction denying the right of the Catawissa Railroad Company tomake a lease with the Atlantic and Gt.
