Cox, of North Caiolma, without trial, and on motion of the attorney for the government, confirms what we said the tner aay, mat me charge on which he was apprehended was founded, olearly on no better basis than rjolitical enmity and partizan calculation. We are not surprised t see it stated that tbe Radicals, in abandoning thus precipitately the nrosecution of General Cox, are ex- nosed to the shame and discomfiture and popular indignation which their futile conspiracy well deserves.
