WOOL
AB this cognominal has became familiarized to
our people and readers of the Tsars,
owing to its connection with some of the dirty
tricks of power in seeking to vent personal
spleen at the expense of official authority, any
thing referring to the individual who bears the
name must of course prove interesting. The
Brooklyn Daily . Times adds its contribution of con
demnation to the acts which thus disgraced the
dignity of st ttion and authority, and emphati
cally declares its abhorrence of those thus
guilty. Few of those who are at all cdnver
saut with military affairs in the Middle depart
ment, or in other words, in Maryland, were
surprised at Gen. Wool being censured by a
Military Commission In tact it would be al
most impossible to investigate any pottion of
the affairs of the department which has depend
ed upon him, without finding cause for censure;
and the officer who has been declared incompe
tent, and, by his imbecility, to have brought
disgrace upon us at Harper's Ferry, is only one
of several that Wool retains in responsible posi
tions. When the "Forty-seventh," from Brook
lyn, was mustered into the service of the
United States by Col. Bell, one of Gen. Wool's
personal rtaff, anti like Col. Milts, an old regu
lar officer, he was at the time grossly intoxica
ted ; a pitiable object, ridiculed by all the officers
and men of the regiment. Had the officers of
the "Forty-seventh" been inclined to defraud
the government, they might have mustered in
1,000 men instead of 600, the actual number all
told ; iu fact, after the mustering in of the men,
the field and staff officers were mustered in at
the 4,fficei's quarters, and one of the officers
who had been assisting Col. Bell answered to
his own name ou its being called, and then, out
of mischief, answered to the name of ant.ther
officer, who was out of the room. Bell was too
drunk to notice the discrepancy, but gravely
checked thew both on the roll as having an
swered to their names. lie was i I the same
condition when he 'neutered in the other militia
r. gimente. It fact, it i- safe to say, that he
was not sober any twenty-four hour: during
the ti.. the Forty seventh was in Baltimore,
and ides offiet r w ax in daily communication
with Genetal Wool I
If General Wool's staff officers are to be be
lieved, he is haunted with the idea that he will
be the next President, that the south should
be conciliated, and that he is just the man to
conciliate them. Acting upon this idea, his
room was a levee of secession ladies, and Fort
McHenry received many visits from him, at
which time the whole of the rebel prisoners
would he brought before him, questioned and
examined, and, apparently, excuses sought to
justify their release. This proceedure was the
more glaring, from the fact that over two hun
dred Union soldiers were kept confined in some
filthy horse stables swarming with vermin, upon
suspicion that they were deserters, some of
whom had Ist their discharges, others Over
stayed their time a few days, and were on their
way back to their regiments when arrested by
the Baltimore police. Yet these men were kept
confined for months without trial, some of them
evidently forgotten. They were only Union
soldiers, nut respectable rebels to be conciliated,
and therefr re, received no notice from General
Wool. But their situation was brought to the
notice of the War Department by some of the
officers of the Forty-seventh, and an order was
immediately issued to send them and all others
in similar situations hack to their regiments.
The treatment of the sick and convalescent
soldiers at Fort McHenry received until the
President interfered, was brutal and infamous.
Eleven hundred sick, die :bled and worn out
Union soldiers were sent to the Fort Grounds,
and by order of Gen. Wool, not allowed to
pass out, and for over a week the must of them
had to sleep on the grass in the rain and dew,
many of them suffering from typhoid feverand
diarrhesa. They had no tents over them, no
blankets to use, and their only cooking uten
sils were a few mi es pane and kettles borrowed
from the Forty-seventh. The first day these
men arrived, a requisition was made OD Major
Belger, Gen. Wool's Quartermaster, for tents
and cooking utensils, and it was over a week
before any answer was received, when without
an assigned reason, Belger returned the requi
sition, refusing the articles required, and Gen.
Wool approved on the back of it over his own
signature, the refusal. The matter was then
brought to the personal notice of the Presi
dent, when General Wool came to the Fort
and censured General Morris, because be had
not provided the sick with those things which
himself had three days before refused to allow
them. This is but a sample of many similar
occurrences, and will illustrate his execu
tive abilities. He surrounded himself with im
beciles like himself, and designing men who
were using him for their own purposes. That
General Wool may be removed, and General
Morris, or some other competent officer placed
in command of the Middle department, is the
hope and wish of every loyal man conversant
with the military affairs of Maryland. A sim
ple censure is not enough for such long con
tinued and aggravated incompetency as his.
Coutwouscs.—The town of Summit, Juneau
county, Wisconsin, in 1860 gave Lincoln forty-
six votes and Douglas thirty-two. At the re
cent election it gave Ranchett, Republican, for
Congress, forty-six votes, and Stoddard, Demo
crat,- thirty-two.
Since the exchange of prisoner began over
twenty-five thousand have been exchanged.
MORE OA VALR I'
The cry now comes up from the Potomac,
that the operatiOns of the Grand Army have
been impeded by ..the want of cavalry. We
must have more cavalry. The wily enemy,
acquainted with his mountains and their tor
tuous windings, cannot be pursued with suc
cess without the aid of cavalry. The plains and
the roads of Virginia cannot be traversed by
men on foot. Mud and slush are barriers which
human feet cannot overcome, however human
energy may toil and struggle in the effort.—
This is all true. Cavalry must do the work
of this war. The government is begin
ning to understand this necessity, and now
some of the very men who, a year ago, rallied
against the organisation of any considerable
cavalry force, are the most urgent in their de
mands at once to bring this branch of the ser
vice up to a respectable force, and thus of course
to s profitable efficiency. We trust that this
wilt be i dorie immediately. Hada similar pro
jest been carried out, and a force organized such
as was suggested and designed when Gen.
Cameron was Secretary of War, the government
would have had a cavalry army such as the world
never before saw in the saddle. We would
have had a force sufficient to ride down and
overpower all the rebel traitors in the land, if
we except those who hide their treason beneath
their corrupt and illiasinmed Democracy.
A STRANGE RUMOR
♦ special dispatch from Cincinnati to the
Chicago Ames, announces the following start
ling fact:
A strange rumor has currency here, to wit :
that Jeff Davis and his Cabinet seriously con
template the emancipation of all the slaves
before the first of January, to anticipate Presi
dent Lincoln's proclamation and secure recog
nition from foreign powers, which is promised
when that extraordinary action is had. It is
further said that the slaves thus freed will im
mediately be pressed into the military service
as the consideration for their freedom. The
report has considerable circulation in Ken
tucky.
It would be a bright idea on the pert of Jeff.
Davis and his followers to "abolish" the insti
tution for the protection of which (professedly)
they went into the war. Have they become
convinced that the Union cannot exist , perma
nently "half slave and half free ;" and that as
slavery has been the pretext for the rebellion,
that its abolition will remove the cause of the
war and enable the north and the south again to
live in peace ?
Should this event take place, will the Chicago
Times and its Vallandigham co-laborers taunt
their "erring brethern of the south" with be
ing practical "abolitionists," or will they have
too much regard for their feelings and in obe
dience to Beitureeard's order, reserve, that
epithet of reproach to those only who are
unconditiondlly for the preservation of the
Union.
A Raw sao—Lrr IR NAIRE as NRIEREBREED.
—Newspaper writers' of late, have haq 4a full
share in the business of manufactirring h e roes
from the very worst of material, and, therefore
when a hero rushes upon the people, folly
equipped in the glory of an act of real dauntless
bravery, it is rather more refreshing to herald
the fact, than it would be to manufacture the
hero. Powell Sharp, the engineer who so nobly
risked his own life that he might be able to
save the lives of hundreds of others, is this hero.
No other man in this country, deserves a higher
praise for bravery than Powell Sharp. His act
of heroism was one in wliiob judgMent, skill, :
presence of mind, devotion and pronaptneis
were all combined to prove his greatness. In
an instant he saw and comprehended a great
emergency. He beheld the dashing train,
leaping malt were to the destruction of hundreds
of human beings, and in that instant he Moved
to the rescue with his locomotive. There was
moral greatness and Manly courage. If therti
has been anything done on the battle ;field
within the present century to equal this , feat
we should like to learn the fact, that we may
honor the hero. Powell Sharp stands, at the
head of the list of heroes. Let his name be
passed from lip to lip. Let it be blessed by the
beautiful and honored by the brave. We point
with pride to a relation of the deed, which has
elicited this paragraph, as it appears in another
column.
THE WHOLE . IN A NUTSHELL
Judge Bright, who is one of the most saga
cious and earnest of English statesmen, and
who has been one of the truest friends that the
Union has found in England, describes our case
in a very few words. lie says in a letter, which
has just appeared, addressed to a Mr. Jewett :
If you are for the Union, and think it featt be
preserved by conciliating the South, I confess I
am amazed. They have made war upon Yon,
because they suspected that you would yield
nothing more to them—are you to yield qtore
under compulsion of the war, or because you
can neither conquer the South, nor yet subsist
as an independent State without her.
If you love slavery and wish to continue it,
and if you think you can build up with honor
a restored and united Republic by humbling
yourself to the South, I can only express my
surprise at the dream which possesses you: Ton
may separate—or you may fight out this contest
and win—but to leave the slave still a slave will
expose you to the contempt of the civilized
world. I applaud the proclamation of the
President, as does every man in Europe, who is
not a foe to freedoln, or moved by base hostility
to the American Republic because it is a,reirub
lic, and becairse it is wirerfull.
The leaders of the South do not want Uninn ;
they will never again come into it willingly ;
and they make a mock of all offers of peace.
They know that slavery must be a subject of
perpetual agitation, and finally of extinction,
within the Union, and they are determified,
therefore, to set up for themselves. They will
be independent or they will be nothing.

aside from its neatness, permanency, and gloss,
it is medically adapted to preserve and add to
the beauty of the hair. The only article yet dis
covered that will Cure the Disease of the Scalp, and
cause the Hair to Grow.

This is to certify that about eighteen months
ago, 1 commenced using Strass,me's Alamos's.
My hair was short, thin and rapidly falling out.
I had tried many Hair Tonics, Invigorators, &c.,
without receiving any benefit. Soon after using
the Ambrosia, my hair ceased falling out, and
commenced growing so rapidly as to astonish
me. Now my hair is thick, soft, and glossy,
and is five feet four inches in length—when let
down, reaching to the floor. This wonderful
result I attribute solely to the use of Sxsarnro' a
AMBROSIA, as since I commenced using it I have
applied nothing else to my hair.
