England, from 1775 to 1784,with an Appendix of bio
graphical sketches. Mr. Ourwen's niece, grand
parent of Mr. George Atkinson Ward, • who has
most judiciously edited this volume, was the re-
Cipient of moat of these letters from England during
the whole of our War of Independence, which con
stitute the greater part of_ thavolpme. Mr. Cur vt en,
a Salem man by birth, was educated for the minis
try ; travelled . through. Europe; ' in his early man
hood; entered into.commercial life. on his return;
served as a captain under Sir William Pepperell
at the taking of Louisburg; filled various offices of.
Public trust, and; when the Revolution broke oat,
was judge of the .Admiralty Court. Believing,
as' many did at the time, that 'a civil war was
not the beet way of having-grievances redressed, he
was one of thirpersons who signed an address of
confidence to Governor Hutchinson, ore ho sailed
from Boston for England in Juno, 1774, and refus
ing to recant, as others did, withdrew from his na
tive land at the age of sixty, and remained nine
years absent, not returning until the war was ended.
He resided in Salem from 1784 to his death; in 1802,
at the age of eighty-six. His journal in and letters
from England during his _absence -were first pub
lished in 1842. 'lf the new edition had an analytical
index, its utility would be immensely increased.
What be wrote is of value, first, because it conveys
a vivid impression of England, as an educated Ame
rican saw it, in the Second part of the last'eentury,
of tie people as well as of the country; and next.,
because it chronicles many important political
events as they occurred. It is full of interest:—for
example, mention le made (p. 376), under date or
March, 1782, of the continued purpose, on the part
of the. British Government,•not to consent to the
independence of America, but to govern'the mum
try bra Lord . Lieutenant, and . create nobility—
the project which is likely to be carried out ere
long by a British prince In Canadia. Mr. George
S. Hillard, in his recent biography of ex-General
G. B. McClellan, boasted that his hero was related
to the Scottish noble house of Macklellan, Baron
Kirkcudbright. The title' is now extinct, but Mr.
Ourwen has a record of the last man who held it.
In. November, 1782, he journalizes ;thus "Saw•in
my landlord's parlor the poorest nobleman, I be
lieve, in the three Kingdoms, a Lord Kirkcudbright,
brought up as a glovier, and who Worked for years.
at this trade in Glasgow." Many of the biographi
cal notices which'conclude the volume contain mat
ter heretofore not published. The lives of Paul
Jones, Dr. Myles Cooper, George Crowninshield,
the Fairfax family, Governor Hutchinson, Joseph
Peabody,.Sir William Pepperell, Samuel Quincy,
amd 'Count and Countess 'Rumford are full without
being etowded,•and terse without being 'obscure.
J. B. Lippincott & Co. have the work here.
Titknor & Fields have added Mrs. Jameson's
"Sacred.and, Legendary Art,” in two,volumee, to
her " Legends of the Madonna' , and "Legends of
the Monastic• Orders," already in their popular blue
and gold series. The that volume, which has a por
trait of Leonardo da Vinci as its frontispiece, eon
thins legends of the angels and archangels, the .
evangelists, the apostles, the doctors of the Church,-
and St. Mary Magdalene ; and - the seeinukvolume
contains the patron saints, the martyrs, the early
bishops, the hermits, and the warrior saints d
Christendom, as represented in the Fine Arts.
This work first - appeared In 1848, and has gone
through at least four editions in , London. The text
here given is a reprint of the latest of these. A..
more - charming book, to take up and lose oneself
over for an hour or two at a time, can scarcely be
named, and we beg leave to hint to poets who are
in want of suitable subjects that these volumes aro
wonderfully suggestive. No doubt Longfellow and
Stoddart, Boker and Lowell, will' seize upon some
of the. beautiful legends here, and turn them into
verse which the world will not willingly let tile.'
Mrs. L. Maria OhlId; who published her first work
ovti forty years ago, hail compiled a volume of
prose and verse, which has been *brought out ' by
Ticknor & Fields. It Is - entitled "Looking Toward
Sunset; frOm sources old and new, original and se
lected." As a gift.-book for all seasons, this is sure
to be in great request. Neatly bound and superbly
printed on oream-colored paper, it will bean elegant
addition to the volumes with which ladies love to
litter their boudoirs and parlor-tables. There are a
couple of pretty wood-cuts here—a "neat head-piece
and a tall-plece. The authors drawn upon are prin

and essays are as good as any in the volume.
The lady who writes under the nom de plume of
"Gail Hamilton" (we noticed, when they appeared,
her "Gala Days" and "Country Living and Coun
try Thinking,") has given us a new work entitled
"A. New Atmosphere." Like the former, it is in
prose. It is a pleading, sometimes eloquent, always
earnest, but occasionally wrong, in favor of the po-
Eition and rights of Woman. The fair author baB
thoughtfully considered and skilfully. treated her
subject, and•especially discusses Woman's Rights in
respect to education and marriage. • Grantinewhat
she asserts and claims for one sex, we think that she
too much depreciates the character of the other—in
a word, Woman is not such exquisAporcelain, nor.
Man such inferior
.crockery, as GailWiiiimilton af
firms. A wholesome dose of matrimony, the lady
now being a spinster, might modify her opinion.

Miss Martineau's History of England, from 1816
to 1854, with an introduction from 1800 to 1815, now
publishing by Walker, Wise, & Co., Boston, is a
work of unusual merit, of which two out of four
volumes have appeared. At the solicitation of
Mr. Charles Knight, publisher of the Pictorial-His
tory of England, Harriet Martineau wrote a con
tinuation of the History of the Peace, of which:
others had written the that book--relating the
events from 1800. to 1807 inclusive. She awed
her history at the date; of 1846, .when Peel'
passed his Free Trade mbasures: For the Ame
rican edition she has now written a continua•
tion, forming an entire New Book from 1846 to
1854, when the Russian war began, and has
also supplied an original and appropriate preface
particularly addressed to American readers. It fol
lows, therefore, that the Boston edition, containing
the events of seven years additional, is much more
complete than the costly and rather cumbrous Eng•
lish edition of 1848-9. The only book which Can at
all compare with it is Knight's Popular History of
England, which devotes about a volume arid a half
to the events from 1800 to 1849, this being much less
than half the space occupied by Miss Pdartinean,
ivhose style is better, and who, above all historians
except Macaulay, has the art of exhibiting the cha.
racteipf the persons she writes about by introducing
numerous and umnispkable personal traits. Under
her pen, history becomes unusually attractive, and
her talent for detail, without allowing - it to sink into
tediousness, is largely developed hero. Besides re
cording events, Miss Martineau traces the progress
of literature, science, and art. A fall Index will
form part of the fourth volume.

George Constantino, the celebrated missionaryi.of

Reuben .Aldridge Guild's "Life, Times, and Cor
respondence of James Manning, and the Early His
tory of Brown University," :One voluthe post Bio.,
pp. 523, has been published by Gould & Lincoln,
Boston, and will have extended circulation among
the Baptists. Brown University, In Rhode Island,
was founded in September, 1761, and the Rev. Dr.
James Manning was its first President, and held
that office until his death, in July, 1791. His life;
then, is the history of the first twenty seven years
of the University, the centenary of which was oele
biated; at Providence, some two months ago. As
Preildent Manning's social position was high, and
as he took some part in the politics of the time,
during the Revolution, the book Contains more mis

usually give. The volume is on sale by Smith, Eng

"A Summer Cruise on the Coast of New Eng

much that they oonld scarcely have known before,
about fish, &heti, and fishermen. The tourist had
to rough it a good deal, now and then, but seems to
have bad a lively time of it all through. Published

Since the rebel , apers have seen tit 'to 'announce
to thelr,readors that their WarDepartgent.had re
coived "startling - news" from Sherman; and at the
same time have shown no desire to publish it, and
-sites,. according to a despatch In our telegraphic .
colffinna, the rebels have refused of late. to ex
change papers, public curiosity has -a right to be
aroused,' and , to wonder where Sherman is,
and what lie is doing. There are two 'theories
relative:to this mysterious and bold advance. First,
-that he la marching towards the Atlantic" coast
'walk hostile Intentions on the rebel prlion pens and
oil the - cities of Savannah and Charleston; and
the Other is that he ,is advancing on -Mobile. The '-
SNOB -the general. Northern theory, because Sher
man hinted it darkly in a letter to a Western Sint
tary_Conamission agent ; because our suffering pri-'
sonars are .all. in that direction ;limns() it would
out the Confederacy in two, and girdle all that part
in which the rebellion throbs with the intensost•
life—North Carolina and Vireinta—and because
his officers and men believe he is going -there. The
rebels teem to lean to the latter theory, beoause
the last dates they had from him came from Selma,
Alabama, and because , a great fleet of Union trans
ports and war -vessels have been concentrating In
the harbor of Mobile. Our readers can judge for
themselves from this brief statement of the reasons
and facts that suppoit the two theories which is the
most 'likely—which; if carried out, would be the
sevantageOus to the Union cause. Mobile is
270,*istrleston 2.30, and Savannah 210 miles from;
/Wait& In a' direct line. To the east of Macon
audieng hundred and seventy miles southeast of
Atlanta:lies An dersonville,and short distances to the
northwest and southeast lie other pens In which our
solders ere murdered by slow tortures. , There are
no topographical difficulties between Atlanta and
Mobile, but the country Is not half so well adapted
for the supply of an advancing army of invaders.
There are po topographical difficulties between At
lanta and Charleston and Savannah, but the °Oust
try is fruitful, and an army can live.
The movements of Sherman, however, point out
with sufficient clearness what' his objects may be.
Afters few strategic moves, by whicti'he drew
Hood out of Georgia, and planted hini on'the shores
of the Tennessee, at Florence, Ala., he suddenly
malies a dart at right angles to his former course,
and -returns to' Atlanta, arriving there November
7tll—Hood having then, and probably having now,
fotir weak corps, under Leo, Cheatham, and Taylor,
amounting in all to about 25,000 men, five thousand
ethalry, and about 70 pieces of artillery. He left
theArMy of the Cumberland, 35,000 strong; under
Thomas,• to entertain this rebel company, while
be bled him away South, to Carry out other
plans, every day leaving the army that- would
other-Wise 'have impeded his march miles on
- mild in his rear. On November 9tb. Sherman
had '47,000 1 men, 10,000 of whom were'cavalry.
These he divided into two columns, the. ,best of
which be marched along the railroad to Macon.
On November 12th' the second column moved to
ward Augusta, where It is believed the programme
was -to Unite - for further' operations. On the 10th
thtifruiy in camp and the army on the march
StretChed along the Macon Railroad as far down as
the"Chattahoochie river, which river is crossed by
the railroad eight miles north' of Atlanta. To the
rear-suardit were assigned 'the 'task of burning
over thing combustible in the whole country from
Atlanta , to
_Dalton. This work, we beßeve,'• has
been thoroughly done. Every town and hamlet
has been destroyed; Atlanta is 'a heap of ashes,
and the inhabitants haVe all been tent to Nash
ville. They were mostly women and children, the
men' having gone South, either voluntarily or com
pulsorily. On the night of the 12th the last torch
had been applied, and Sherman's axiom was again
verified—not. tiPresting place for an enemy was left
In hia rear. The last trails of cars left Atlanta on
thamoroing of the 12th ; the railroad was destroyed
to Dalton; all communication With Sherman ceased,
and his subsequent movements have been involved
in utter mystery. Cast loose from all base lines,
afloat in the very midst of rebellion, but with a
steady, fearless, and skilfal pilot to guide; our army
is even now at its work of gnashing treason, and
building 'hp a restored Union out of the ruins of .a
divided and devastated Confederacy. .
But to return' to speculation.' : The movement
seems hazardous, but from Sherman's record, and the
fact that opposition to his march can only be made
by militia and such reinforcements as Lee may dare
to send fromlliclunond, we naturally conclude that
where so ranch is risked there must be something
great, something. important, to be gained. ildoblie,
in this view, cannot be the place. Its value Farra

not over the land, constantly open to attaelt, and
at all times hard to maintain, but over the
sea, Where we fear no enemy, where we are
supreme. Savannah is the nearest point, and in
Its fall 18 naturally included that of Charles
ton. Liki most of the other cities of the South, it
is not capable of much defence against an attack
by land.. The country stretches out behind it level
and flat, With just enough wood to insure moderate
COVOT tO an enemy; Its defences are very imperfect,
and engineering skill can scarcely improve them.
Evenif they were of the highest style o fart, there are
no men to defend them; except they be drawn from
Richmond, to its great detriment. But suppOse it
could. be rapidly reinforced, a long siege would
be the result; and supplies of sufficient amount can
not possibly be centred in the city; or if they are,
the problem is the same as that offered at. Atlanta,
and a blow to the single railroad would marvel
lously diminish the supply of hard tack and bacon.
The city lies 1S miles from Fort Pulaski, whieh is In
our hands. The river has been thoroughly obstruct
ed above the fort and below the city, but in ease of
a siege, Sherinan, who has started with thirty days'
rations on the hoof, could be supplied by stores
landed from our fleet, between the fort and the ob
structions. . -
The above, which appeared in part of our edition
of yesterday, has been fully corroborated by later
advices• As the New York papers have seen
fit to carefully state Sherman's exact force, his
present whereabouts, and what lie intends to do, we
see no harm in publishing the following despatches,
which. hami, been in our possession for nearly a
week ; ,

CINCINNATI, Nov. 17.—The Times' Nashville
respondent, dating Nov. 15, Says : One column of
Sherman's army left Atlanta on the 9th inst.,
taking the •Macon road, and will pass through
Milledgeville, and will probaby take it and release
the Union prisoners confined there. The second
column left on Saturday last, taking the dirkot road
to Augusta, which will be reached in fourtee days.
The two columns concentrate here, and move. on
Charlestdn, Savannah, or , Beaufort, as deemed
proper. -
" Beaufort was originally their destination.
"The Macon and Augusta Railroad will be effec
tually destroyed as the army proceeds. • Sherman
carries slaty days rations in beef cattle, and will de.
pend on the country for other supplies.
Atlanta has been rendered untenable,. and such
buildings as could benefit the enemy were de
stroyed, but no others. Sherman will meet no
enemy on the way, as the Georgia militia are few in
numbers and harmless. About two thousand sol.
diers, besides militia, are at Savannah." • This cor
respondent states that the army consists of four
corps, with 10,000 cavalry, in all 47,000 men.

GUERILLA ATTACH ON A DETACHMENT OF THE
17TH PENNSYLVANIA CAVALRY-THE. CASUAL
TIES-RECAPTURE OF PRISONERS BY MIORIGAN
CAVALRY
A correspondent of the New York . Tiaras, with
Sheridan's army, writing last Thursday, gives the
annexed account of an attack upon a detachment
of the 17th ,Pennsylvania Cavalry, between that
army and the Opequan:
Sergeant Schaffner with fifteen men of Company
E, 17th Pennsylvania, accompanied by Corporal
William Arnwake, clerk at Col. Kellogg's head;
quarters, started for the Opequan, by order of Col:
Edwards, commandant at Winchester, to take de •
spatches to the railroad station on the Opequan.
The party succeeded in reaching the point designa
ted without interruption but when on their return,
alter having crossed. tie Opequan, and passing
through .a piece of woods, they encountered one
company of Moseby's men, ono hundred and nine
strong, commanded by • Captain Montgomery and
Lieut. smith (a son et 1. - Extra. Billy• Smith, of War
renton). They (the enemy) had just returned from
the Martinsburg .and Win chesterpike, and had cap
tured a newsboy's wagon, the driver of which was
still in their custody.
The enemy was concealed behind &barn, and only
exposed a squad to the advance of Sergeant Schaff
ner's party. The advance guard was not halted, but
as soon as the main body came in sight they were
• ordered to surrender, which order the commandant •
• refused to obey, when instantly the whole of the
enemy's. force charged, surrounded the party, and
• an indiscriminate slaughter commenced._ Of the
seventeen men, seven were killed or wounded. One
• man escaped, who was on the rear guard, and, re•
turning to camp, gave information of what occurred.
' The balance of the party (nine men) . were taken
prisoners.
Col. Kelloggovith 260 men of the 17th Pennsyl
vania Cavalry, immediately started out in pursuit;
- but only succeeded in recapturing two men belong

The death of Sergt. Schaffner is particularly re- .
pretted, because be was a superior soldier. Only
two weeks ago he was captured, and made his escape
at the peril of his life from a guard of bwo men. He

The farce of holding.a convention of delegates- of
the people for the purpose of destroying the constl
aution and abridging their own rights came to a Real .
'and most natural end on the 18th of August. Tile
Convention had worked their way, with much effort'
and many compromises with the King and chiefs, as:
far es the sixty-second artieleoehloh proposed to
limit the right of suffrage by a property qualifica
tion. After a week's debate, the delegates and no.
bias agreed open a very moderate limitation ; there...
upon, the King suddebly dissolved the Convention,"
declaring the constitution abrogated, and that lie.
would giie the country such a constitution as he
saw fit,. and left the Chamber without waiting 'for
his speech to be interpreted. - ." • •

dure. Mr. Wyllie may be excepted from severe cen
sure on the score of age and impaired mind, of'
which he gave lamentable proof during the debates
Of the Convention. He has been a zealous and dill.
.gent rather than a judicious friend of the Hawaiian .
'nation, and those errors of his dotage need not be
against his memory. De Valigny held a re-,.
epeetable position in the 'debates, exhibiting only a'
'Frenehmanei'natural lack' of sense as to what .lie;•
hooves liberal governments. Hopkins well perform
ed his role of dolce far niente. Harris has been the
man of alt work and meanest work. He is the only
American of the four, and we all know that "a
mean Yankee is the meanest of all men." Judge
Robertson has presided, and after a short vacilla
tion, having surrendered himself. to the King's pur
poses, he displayed a very natural bitterness and
unfairness towards the members of the opposition.
• On the 20th the Constitution promised by the King
waii.publislituk and proclaimed the. law of the land.
It proves to be a more complete and barefaced sub
version of the rights of the people than any one
could have expected. In fact, the chief right of the
people to share in controlling the Government is
virtually done away with by the abolition' of 'the
Lower House and merging the representatives into
one body with the nobles. As the nobles are com
pletely controlled by the King, it only needs the
'votes of a.handful of the representatives to give the
King a majority to do what he chooses. To ohange
the Constitution only a two-thirds vote is required,
and this can be secured from the unanimous nobles
on the side of privilege against even a majority of
the people's representatives. In short, it is simply
a Legislature .packed by law to do whatever the
King orders. By the sixty-fifth article even the
'judges can be removed without impeachment by
merely a two-thirds vote, thus prostrating the judi
ciary at the feet of the King. By these changes,
faience, patio°, and chartered rights are all sub
jected to the, arbitrary will of one man. -
Several inor encroachments must be noticed.
The right to vote lay ballot is dropped, opening the
door to less. of freedom by viva voce voting at oleo
' tions, which would be an intolerable trial of the in
. dependence of, the naturally subservient natives.
All the ministers have ex-officio seats in the Rouse.
The 'House has added to its power to imprison for
contempt, &c., the power to imprison those "who,
during the time, of its sitting,. shall publish any
•ralse report of its
.proceedings, or insulting com
ments upon the same"—a direct blow at theillberty
of public animadversion upon the legislation of the
country. There is a heavy property qualification for
representatives, and a higher one for voters. rife
King can deprive of the right of succession any one
in the line of, succession to the throne who marries
without his consent.
Thus, so far as the dictum of the King can do it,
we find ourselves minus our liberal Constitution,
and dropped far bank under arbitrary Monarchy.'
Of course,
all this amounts.to but little, and no one
supposes that these changes will last long. Any
King or Government who plants himself in the way
of the grand current of liberty and civilization
that sweeps along the nineteenth century, has not
long to stand, and what cilium has our little Ka
mekameha of Honolulnl There was a chance for a
native King to hold his place for the good of him
self and hie people while complying with the spirit
of his times, and adapting' himself to the necessities
of foreign immigration and commerce. The present
state of affairs is quite satisfactory to those who
wish to see the 'Qovernment in foreign bands as
MOM as possible . , as nothing could more rapidly
break down the native Government than the over
throw of the Constitution. It is only atm old and
true friends of the elitists and people , who are filled
with regret and apprehension,

'theuliteblistid — eXtrantif: ' '
When a federal union of all the British American
provinces was first proposed, every ono took It for
granted that the people would be consulted on this,
great and momentous (Mange. - But before the Que
bec Conference had proceeded far in its labors their
determination to evade this ordeal, if possible, as
sumed the shape of a rumor, to which every day
tended to give,. confirmation. At.the deouner given
to the delegates at' Toronto, the question was pat
• by some one In the audience whether it was int ended to
carry the union into eject without reference to the pee).
pie ? It fell to Mr. Brown to give an answer. He
did not go direot to.the point, but still he wentso far
as to state that if 'the several Legislatures would
support the Governments in carrying the measure,
the people would not in any way be consulted. Since
then the Globe, has repeatedly published articles
against allowing the people, whose destinies are to
be affected by the change, anything to say in the
matter. These articles have allotted numerous re
plies from all sections of the press, and thus. the
question has come under general discussion. There
never was the least reason to doubt what view the
great mass of the people would take of the 'euea
+don ; and if there had been any, it would have bean
removed by the turn this discussion has taken.
There is an almost universal protest against the pro.
posal that the public men of these provinces should head
a revolution and refuse to allow the people, whom they
assume to represent. the opportunity of saying whether
they are willing it should take place or not. D. is plain
that, whatever may be the intention or desire of the
conference in this respect, the people of the lone
vinces—ol this province certainly—will not' allow
themselves to be ignored ip a matter-of so great im
portance.
We are ourselves in favorer these British Ameri
can provinces being united under one Government ;
but does it follow that we are to insist on thescheme
being
,forced down the throats of the people I We
have no right to do so. It must be left to the people
themselves 10 say whether they desire this change in the
Constitution, and in the relations of the different pro
vincesto one another. It is not right that the destiny
of a people should be arbitrarily disposed of with
out reference to their wishes. This question of con
sideration-is a new one ; previous talhe last general
election it had never been discussed, except In
a casual way, and then not to an extent
to command general approbation. It has
never been a popular question; no general
election has ever turned upon It; confederation
has never been forced upon any government; it was
first brought up prominently not by the people, but by
the Government; the measure oven now is official
rather than popular. The
public men are not fol
lowing public opinion on this question, but trying to
forestall and, ignore it. Whoa a question has for
years been a subject of popular agitation ; when it
has long been advocated by one party and opposed
by another ; when Its advocates have been gaining
In numbers and influence year by year, nobody is
surprised if the minority, laying down their arms
and ack - nowledging.themselves beaten, join their
late adversaries in carrying a measure to which
further opposition had become hopeless. In such a.
case, no further appeal to the people would be ne
cessary, if the measure were of an ordinary kind.
But a total change of the Constitution, amounting to a
complete revolution, ought never to be lightly made.
There is a strange contradiction between the pro
fession of a - belie that the country is in favor of
confederation and the manifestation of a fear to
trust the question to the people. For our•part, we
have nofear of the verdict of the people, provided they
are treated fairly ; but the manifestation of a desire
to treat them as of no account in a matter which
concerns their welfare; their rights and liberties for
all time to come, IS Calculated to arouse Suspicion,
and, If persisted in, may lead to the rejection of the
scheme attempted to no forced upon them.'
Everything the organs tell us, will depend upon
the majority by which the measure is carried in the
House- if it is carried by a large majority the pub
lic will not be consulted; If by' a - small majority,
'there will be a general election. This plan of pro
.cedlire rests on the assumption that the present
House truly represents the people on a question not
in issue when-It was elected. Under these cireum
stances there is but one course for the members to
take. Let them inquire of the ministers whether
it is intended to submit this revolution to .the ap
probation of the people explaining, at the same
time, that on' the answer to this question their
votes would depend. If the people are to be con
sulted, those in favor of confederittionvill vote for
it. If they are to be ignored, and a total change of
constitution and inter colonial relations is to be
forced upon the provinces, they will' vote against
the scheme, not with a desire of defeating it, • but
solely •to mark their disapprobation.of this unwar
rantable mode of proceeding.

The debt of the Confederation, to start with—sup
posing the International Railroad to 'be built—will
be little over $100,00e,000, distributed as follows :

debt when he places it at $116,000,000. = •
Brit this does not provide for the enlargement of

improvements are to be lefttill a more convenient
season. ' There ought to have been something more
definite on this eubjeet the agreament'come to by
the delegates. Als the expense of:building the ,In
ten ational Railroad is to falinpon the..Confedera-
Canada will pay a very much larger propor
tion of the cost than she would have.paid if the pre
vious agreement between the.• Provinces, as to the
i zoriortions they should respaotively bear, had been
carried out. This is a reason why there should be
t o mistake or contingency about the ettlergeniebt

it. were connected with tha opening up of the•great

kirk . gives an accouptof the extraordinary return to
that' port of the schooner Cordlance:on-Bien When
off the coast of Guinea taking in a cargo ofpaint
nuts and oil , the crew was attackod by yellow fever,
which soon carried off the captain and several of the
sailors. The mate,, Id. D'Hondt, then assumed the
command, and having completed his cargo, sailed
from Grand Bassam for, Europe with the fever still
continuing its ravages on board. At last hp. was
left with only two men and a boy, all of whom were
too ill to aid in working the vessel. Re' neverthe
less courageously faced the difficulties of his posi
tion, and brought thor..asel safely to. port. one of
the men died tue day after Ids arrival, but the other
and the boy are likely to recover. The insurers of
the vessel, on being apprised of the conduct of lc
DlHondt, presented him with a purse of one thou
sand francs. and a handsome gold chronometer.
The Administration of Marine has also ordered a
eport of the voyage to be drawn up, with a view
to offering a further reward In the name of the Ctc h .

TICE FISK EXPEDITION.
PAILII BE OP THE REPEDITION—INOIDENTS O? . TIIS
11.0IITE—INDIAPF13 POISONED W/TII. sTgrokanrrE.
The Fisk expedition returned to St. Paul on Fri
day night, Ilth Inst. It was organized at St. Final
last spring, and. consisted of emigrants, a guard of
soldiers, and a cbros of men to take care of the Go
vernment properti,• drive teams, he. The train
consisted of about' one hue dred wagons. The expe
dition reached Fort Ridgely safely, and were hero
furnished with a guard of fifty cavalrymen,
under
Lieutenant Phillips. They then wont to Fort
Rice via Fort Wadsw . ortir. and- after e week's
delay in ferrying across the Missouri, arrived there
on August 15th. Their guard'-from this post was a
detachilient of fifty cavalry under Lieut. Smith—
convalescents drawn front different regiments.
They left•sort Rice on Anglia Met, and journeyed
up the Cannon Ball river to the last erossingthade
by General Sully, whence they' struck in a south
westerly direction over a fine 'country to the Red
Buttes, some eighty miles distrait: While passing
through the Red Buttes they filitisiw hostile Indi
ans, the ljnk.ipa Sioux. Mr. Nendiok, of St.
'4knthoey, an emigrant, was killed while loOking for
a lest ox. The Indiana then followed the train for
thxee"days, their number apparciitly increasing
every day; three hundred being court:ed at the last.
lb was a continual running skirmish. There wore
only 168 armed men in the train. It required about
100rof these to drive the train. The train was ar
ranged baby° parallel colurrins, forming 3% square,
and the guard formed -a lino of defence about it.
'Whenever a knot of ' Indians were seen together
they were shelled with a howitzer, and registered,
and HT a charge seemed threatened on any portion
of the line the guard at that point waestrengtib.ened.
On the second day the Indians were about three
hundred strong, while. Fisk had only neventriive
available men, and harassed his camp MI one side
with a strong party, while they endeavored , to b neale
through his line on the other. They were - repulsed
with the loss of a number of braves, and finally.
gathered together on an' eminence, and sent a flag
of truce, asking a council with Captain Fisk: This
was refused, alter which' they demanded. a large
quantity of supplies, ammunition, beef cattle, and
Iron for arrow heads, upon the reception of which
they modestly agreed to raise the siege.
The next communication was a letter written by
a white woman, Mrs. Fannie Kelley, wholhey held
captive The head 'men dictated what' she was to
write, but at the end of each sentence she appealed
for aid to secure her release. - The Indians being
unable to read she was in this 'broken way enabled
to inform the Captain that she was captured on the
16th of July, near Fort Laramie, with a large emi
grant train. The truce ground was maintained for
two dal sin order to secure her release. Capt. Fisk
offered },them his saddle horse and a span of horses
harnessed to a wagon loaded with provisions, if they
would surrender her, and they agreed 'to do so the'
next day, but-during the night they moved their
camp, and sent word they would carry her to some
fort and 'get provisions enough for the winter. She
wrote Captain Fisk that ha had killed a large num
ber with bullets; and that others were very sick and
dying. The sickness was readily explained, as a
quantity of hard tack with a little strychnine mixed
in, bad been left where the Indians could capture it,
and -their indispositiOn followed. It was subse
quently ascertained that one hundred' men, women,
and, children were killed by this stratagem.
On the third day of this runninglight, Capt. Fisk'
found a very fine naturally-fortified position, and
constructed an entrenched camp; where he remain
ed for ten days, until relief came from Fort
Rice, for which he despatched a messenger at once.
The Indians only remained three days after en•
camping here. After the Indians had decamped,
Captain Fisk made preparations to proceed. They
Were near the Little Missouri, over which they con
structed a road and ferry, and had gone ten miles
when overtaken-by 800 troops sent out by General
Sully, under command of Colonel Dill, with instrue
tions to bring back the emigrants and guard to Fort
Rice.. Capt. Fish begged for an import of 200 men
for two days, which was denied him, and he was,
therefore; compelled to give up the expedition and
return to Fort Rice. The emigrants returned with
him, sold'their outfits, and separated.
IN the naming of the modern streets of Paris re
