Missouri (Missouri, United States) (search for this): article 6
Missouri under, a Complete despotism--Horrible Scenes. --The following is an extract from a private letter published in the Chicago Times. It is from one of the oldest and best citizens of St. Joseph, Missouri. No comment is needed. He says: We are under much worse than Russian military despotism here, which is aided by an armed mob, which illuminate the heavens nightly with the light of burning dwellings, which burn to the music of dying father's moans and the shrieks of mothers and children, fleeing from their burning houses through the lonely prairies and dark forests, white they seek safety among the haunts and lairs of wolves and wild beasts from the bloody fury of their more savage fellow men. Twenty-five men have been shot dead in their own houses, and thirty dwellings turned in Andrew county (next north of St. Joseph) within twenty days. Mrs.--'s dwelling — the finest in this county now, and costing $13,000--was burned last week by a squad of soldiers from

A neighbor's, by the name of--, was burned at the same time. The counties of Jackson, Bass, and Bates are a total desolation. Over one thousand houses have been burned — the owners murdered wherever caught — and every thing stolen that could be removed. A furious radical party now thr<
Rosecrans (search for this): article 6
Gen. Rosecrans. We have never seen, even among Yankees, a popular idol so suddenly displaced from his shrine and bedaubed with such abominable fifth as the hapless Rosecrans. They now assert that their late demigod is an intolerable coward; that he rushed from the field of battle to Chattanooga and declared that all was lost. He is even said to have betaken himself to opium to soothe the anguish of his terror, defeat, and misery.--Alas! unhappy Rosecrans! Once a gentleman, he converted fifth as the hapless Rosecrans. They now assert that their late demigod is an intolerable coward; that he rushed from the field of battle to Chattanooga and declared that all was lost. He is even said to have betaken himself to opium to soothe the anguish of his terror, defeat, and misery.--Alas! unhappy Rosecrans! Once a gentleman, he converted himself into a brutal tyrant and blackguard to propitiate the Lincoln dynasty, and has already received the just reward of his self-degradation.
John H. Morgan (search for this): article 7
Gen. Morgan. --The Montgomery Daily Advertiser publishes the life and military achievements of the renowned Gen. John H. Morgan, now a prisoner, with head shaved and piebald garments, in the penitentiary of Ohio. An extract from the article in question, which we subjoin, recapitulates all the grand exploits of this Southern Gen. John H. Morgan, now a prisoner, with head shaved and piebald garments, in the penitentiary of Ohio. An extract from the article in question, which we subjoin, recapitulates all the grand exploits of this Southern Paladin. No man of his day has accomplished more, if so much, and the summing up shows an array of glorious deeds that were never surpassed in number and brilliancy. The writer says: Morgan's career may be summed up with truth as follows: He has fought sixty-three battles, and has been successful in fifty seven; took 50,000Morgan's career may be summed up with truth as follows: He has fought sixty-three battles, and has been successful in fifty seven; took 50,000 prisoners, killed 20,000, and destroyed $50,000,000 worth of property, and taken 50,000 stands of small arms, and fifty pieces of artillery, 20,000 horses, and traveled 12,000 miles. These figures surpass anything in the annals of history, and he has not had with him at any time over 5,000 men for duty.
Southern Literary Messenger. The Messenger for October contains a variety of good things. "My Uncle Flatback's Plantation" is alone worth the annual price of subscription. We take it for granted it is from the pen of the editor, Dr. Bagby, and it is in his best vein. Long may it be before the race of "Uncle Flatback" fades from Virginia!

Fraud. --In 1857 the vote of the city of Philadelphia for Governor summed up, all told, fifty two thousand and eighty five. In the late election, though many thousands of the voters were absent in the army, the vote of the city is given at eighty-one thousand four hundred and fifty-seven. No other evidence is needed to prove that the Lincolnites "stuffed" the ballot boxes by the wholesale. There is no doubt but that such frauds secured the election of Gov. Curtin. While he carries the State by twenty thousand majority, one branch of the Legislature is tied, while the other has a Republican majority of one. The Abolition gain is large in the cities.

Wood for the Ibor. --A benevolent gentleman, who is anxious to aid the poor in procuring fuel for the winter, has on foot a plan for delivering one-quarter of a cord of wood, at a cost of $5, to every family in the city. He has arranged for a supply of wood, but his trouble now is to get horses and carts with which to deliver it. The city would no doubt aid in the delivery; but to make the plan at all valuable at least thirty teams would be required. As the wood is to be delivered to rich and poor alike, it is supposed that persons not needing it will pay the $5 charged and turn the fuel over to their more needy neighbors or acquaintances. If the plan can be carried out it will save a vast deal of suffering this winter.
