Death or Capt. J. W. Baird. An occa
ion of much interest was exhibited in our
quiet town on Friday and Saturday. Captain
Josiah W. Baird, our fellow townsman and
commander of Company D of "Merrell's
Horse," bad, as it appears, been slain on Sat
urday the 6th instant, in an engagement with
a guerrilla band, near Glosgow, Mo. Mrs.
Baird, who was on a visit to her husband, (ac
companied by Dr. R. W. Landis, Chaplain of
the regiment, and the body of the Captain,)
returned to her home among us on Friday
evening. Our community was taken by sur
prise, as no notice of the disaster bad reached
in, (the telegram which had been sent an
nouncing the fact, having failed to arrive,)
and only a short time before, letters had been
received here from Capt. Baird himself. The
facta of bis death appear to have been these.
Word was brought to the camp at Glosgow
" on Saturday morning, that a guerrilla band
waa lurking iu the brnah some 8 or 10 miles
north ol Glosgow, and Capt. B. and a portion
ol his command were detailed, along with
some of the State militia, to proceed against
tlicm. Having reached the place, the advance
was fired Into by the enemy, and Capt. Baird
having ordered his men to dismount, advanced
at their head into the brush where the gueril
la! were concealed. In the first charge of the
enemy upon this advance, Capt. B. fell mor
tally wounded the femeral artery having been
severed, he survived but a few moments. As
he ank down, however, he discharged his re
volver iwice at the foe, who were now in
glit, and animated his men to the charge.
The guerrillas were entirely cut up and defeat
ed, and the man who shot Captain Baird, fell
pierced by four balls. The Captain was great
ly beloved by his men and highly esteemed
by the officers of the regiment. No braver
man, or truer patriot, has fallen in this war.
lie was born, August 3d, 1826.
The obsequies were attended on Saturday.
The whole community for miles around seem
ed to be present, and the funeral was the lar
gest ever seen in this place. A detail of mil
itary, and the band, accompanied the body to
the church and then to the grave, and it
denied to us that nothing could exceed the
wquisitively fine performance or the band on
the occasion. The Rev. Mr. Galloway, Pas
tor of the Presbyterian chnrch here, assisted
bJ Dr. Laodis, conducted the services.
IsTERSAt Revemce Stamps. The Cornmis
ioner of Internal Revenue has established the
following regulations concerning the commis
sions allowed to purchasers of stamps :
The commissions will be paid in stamps
tl't is, a remittance of $50 will entitle the
I'urcliaser to stamps amounting to $51. A re
mittance of $1,000 will entitle the purchaser
$1,050 worth of stamps. The Solicitor of
the Treasury has given an opinion upon the
liability or manufacturers to taxation upon
goods removed from the place of manufacture
P"or to September 1, 1862. This opinion is
n the hands of tbe printer and will be pub
lubed in a few days. The collectors of cus
toms at the several ports are instructed to re
vive in payment of duties all debenture certi
icites issued by them, tbe same being made re
ferable for duties by tbe act of March 3, 1849.

THE FBESIDEKT AND HIS PARTY.
In a very remarkable article, iu the l ist
Wilk' Times, occurs tbe following pregnant
paragraph:
Personally, it Is our great desire to sustain
tbe President, and We deplore the opportunity
be bas let go by, to sustain himself. As
strange a philosophy as it may seem for a
Democrat to hold, we regard the fact or his
being virtually isolated from his party, as the
greatest danger or the State. Supported by a
great branch of tbe American people, who,
whether their politics are right or wrong, are
still patriotic citizens, tbe President remains
an object of power and respect ; but Tylerized
and alienated, he becomes merely Abraham
Lincoln, who can not be supported in his er
rors, merely because be is filled with good in
tentions. If he lose the support or b'is own.
party, be cannot count on the respect of ours ;
and it is palpable to the simplest reasoner,
tbat a roan who is not backed by any organi
zation of tbe people, cannot guide the Nation
through these stormy times.
There is solemn truth in this. No Presi
dent can carry on a Government successfully
without a powerful party, and no party will
confide in him but the one which elected him.
Mr. Liscoln and bis administration must stand
or fall with the party which elected him. If
be breaks with the Republicans, or Radicals,
as they are called, he will have no party which
will trust him, confide in him, and cordially
sustain bim. We do not believe Mr. Lincoln
designs to break with his party, but there are
traitors and schemers who are seeking to pro
duce this result, and they will stop at no fraud,
corruption, hypocracy or lying to accomplish
their object.
Desperate Counterfeiter Captured at
Cleveland. On Tuesday last a man giving
his name as Joseph H.Jones entered thi bank
ing house of Messrs. Wasson, Everett & Com
pany, Cleveland, Ohio, and asked to exchange
$1,000 note of the Bank ol Georgia for Treas
ury notes. Mr. S. I. Everett, the cishier, saw
at once his currency was spurious ; but ma
king no remark, whispered to a clerk to pro
cure a policeman, and proceeded at once to
reckon the money. In a short time officer
Whitney arrived and arrested Jones. The
two went away together, but on crossing Su
perior street, Jones drew a revolver and de
clared that he would go no further. Whitney
threw bis arm around tbe rufli in, and with the
help of two citizens succeeded in securing him.
He was safely lodged in jail, and assured the
policeman that he drew the revolver only to
make a present of it too him. Jones is from
St. Cloud, Minnesota, and is an old offender.
The ready dexterity of Mr. Everett thus se
cured one of the most daring counterfeiters
now swarming over the country.
Hkavt Robbery. The Treasurer's office of
Stark county, Ohio, was entered on Tuesday
night last, and robbed of forty-sis thousand
dollars ten thousand in currency, and thirty
six thousand in checks, drafts, etc., etc. It
is said tbat some one drugged James S. Rider,
whose term of office has expired, and who was
to have given possession to his successor on
Wednesday, and whilst he was stupiftcd, took
the keys from his pocket, entered the office,
opened the safe, and abstracted the money and
papers. '
According to the report of the Cooper Shop
Volunteer Refreshment Saloon, of Philadel
phia, that organization has fed, within tin;
past year, eigty-seven thousand, five hundred
and thirteen volunteers and United States
soldiers. Thirteen thousand one hundred and
sixty-three dollars have been given to the So
ciety, by contribution, within the fiscal year
just closed.
x iie uovernor oi aiary una Das issued a
proclamation to the citizens of that State,
calling upon them to enroll themselves in vol-
utiteer military organizations, to drive out
the rebels that have iuvaded their soil. He
recommends the formation of cavalry compa
nies, as better adapted than any other in the
present emergency.
Lieut. Governor Danally oi Minnesota, has
made an official report of the late Indian mas
sacre in that State, in which he estimates the
number of killed and wounded at three hun
dred and eighty-two.
Colonel Kane, of the Bucktail rifles, has
been appointed aBiigadier General for gallant
and meritorious conduct in the field.
