In common with most of those who speak and read the English language, we have the highest respect for the literary ability of the Right Honorable Sir EDWARD-GEOROE-E.tRLE LYTTON BULWER-LYTTON, M. P. for Hertford shire, and Queen VICTORIA'S ex-Secretary of State for the Colonies from May 1858 to June 18N. But truth compels us to confess we have a poor opinion of him as a Politician, and a persuasion that he is extremely deficient in the qualities which, in combination, consti tute a Statesman. Admirable CRICHTONS have never been abundant, and are scarcer now than ever. Few men excel in more than one thing. For example, Dr. RUSSELL, of The Times, describes battles as well as XENOPHON, (who also fought them,) but is all at sea when he enters upon political or other speculative subjects. We might multiply examples. BULWER'S greatest admirers will admit, we think, that, though he was a member of Lord DERBY'S Ca binet for thirteen months, he has not succeed ed as a politician. This is not entirely his fault—though it is partially so. He entered Parliament in 1831, as the representative of some £1,500 which he paid for his seat to WELLESLEY-POLE, the late Earl of Mornington, proprietor of the borough of St. Ives. With the exception of the interval between June, 1841, and July, 1852, during which he sus tained two election defeats at Lincoln, BULwER has been constantly in Parliament. Twenty years in the House of Commons ought to give any man of good abilities, social position, re putable character, and fair fortune every chance of making a hit in public life. Bur.- *Elt has even been a Cabinet Minister; yet still, who will say that his political career has been successful? Miss IL BARER, Principal The fact lies in a nutshell. This gentle man, whose writings are so informed with ge nius, has belonged to all parties in politics, and does not possess the power of popular oratory—so rare in England, so frequent in America. Commencing his career as a Radi cal, and strongly advocating the Reform Bill, he gradually subsided into a mere supporter of the Whig Ministry, of which that.good-hu snored diner-out was head. In 1885, while PEELS Cabinet was struggling for existence, AII4WZR wrote a partisan pamphlet in favor of the Whigs, which rapidly ran through twenty editions, and had considerable political influ ence. Soon after, when the Whigs were in office, they rewarded their advocate by con ferring on him the hereditary rank of Baro net, as had been done in the case of WALTER Scorr, in 1820, who received the first title be stowed by GEORGE IV. As we have said, &LIVER was out of Parliament from 1811 to 1852, and, when he again had a seat in the House of Commons, declaring, by pen and voice, that he opposed the doctrines of Free Trade, he supported the Derby-Disraeli party, receiving high Mee from them, when they came into power. It is only right to say that, notwithstanding bad health, he was a pains taking and useful Minister, though his only memorable action in that capacity was the erection of British Columbia into a se parate colony,—which does not pay ex penses, and is a heavy drag upon JOHN BULL. Having "boxed the compass" of politics—Radical, Whig, and Tory, in suc cession—Betwun has exercised small influence in Parliament. D/SRAELI, who has exhibited similar want of consistency, is constantly re minded- of, it, and by many distrusted. One, alone, among living and-leadtng Englishmen, has been consistent only in inconsistency: this is PALMERSTON, who has held office in some fourteen different Administrations during his public career, and has actually passed forty two out of the last fifty-two years fc in the service of his country"—which is the polite phrase for holding high office. Another cause of BULWER'S non-success as as a politician is his deficiency in poweiand weakness in debate. Legislative orators in America may and do write long speeches, which they deliver by act of memory, some times by reading them, sometimes by obtain ing permission to have them considered as spoken or read, which secures their being printed in the authorized reports of the pro ceedings. In the British Legislature, on the contrary, such a thing as reading a speech is not allowed. The man who attempted it would be put down by an universal and terrific cc guf faw" of laughter. The Financial Minister, when he opens the Budget, and has to make numerous statements of re ways and means," receipts and expenditure, imposition and re duction of taxes, is allowed to read their amounts from a slip of paper, but any thing like reading his speech, or a part of it—ex cept it be an avowed quotation—would be im mediately coughed or laughed down. Never theless, there are many able persons in Par liament who, though not in possession of" the gift of the gab," as the Irish familiarly call it, have a good deal to say upon certain subjects. For the life of them, these gentlemen cannot make an off-hand speech. There are others, who, with great eloquence, so much distrust their own powers, that they, also, write out their speeches, commit them to memory, and recite them in public, with more or less success. Among these last were two of the most brilliant orators of the present age. SHEIL mid MACAULAY almost invariably com posed their speeches before speaking them, and were listened to, not only with attention, but delight and admiration. - Sometimes, when excited by debate, SHEIL would speak on the moment with force and eloquence; MACAULAY rarely ventured so far. Of course, neither of these orators—for orators they were, in the higheSt sense, of the terra—ventured upon re ply. At times Sum, who was more adroit and more confident than MACAULAY, would address himself to one or two points made by a preceding speaker, but would speedily glide into the prepared oration, and deliver what, however plausible its appearance of in stantaneity, all who heard him perceived to smell of the midnight oil. J. M. AUSTIN & CO It is Bum En's misfortune not to be such a ready speaker as a legislator who aspires to a leading position ought to be. His voice is weal: and shrill, and, moreover, from his af fliction with partial deafness, he is unable to modulate it properly, so as, by covering its defects, to make them almost the servitors of his will. Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S hesitation in his speech, &MIL'S shrillness, ifAcAurav's mixture of the lisp and burr would strike any auditor unaccustomed to them with surprise and pain, but the stammer is speedily subdued by the speaker's earnestness; SHELL'S shriek soon filled the house, in the subdued silence of fixed attention ; and once that MAcAuray was fairly in the heart of his subject, his voice poured forth the rounded sentences with the fullness of a baritone. Unfortunately, BELWER has a weak, uncer tain, and (from the cause we have stated) un manageable voice. Neither is his manner good, nor yet his aspect :—the first is cold, and the second, with its hirsute appendages, somewhat foreign. But the greatest misfor tune is, his want of' that self-possession with out which no one can hope to shine as a pub lic speaker. He commits his speeches to memory, and fine compositions they generally are but, as he speaks them, the auditor can not but perceive that the orator is by no means at ease. From BELWER'S being hard of' hear ing, he cannot catch the murmurs of the as sembly before him, which would indicate ad miration or its opposite, approval or dissent ; he can but look into men's fades to see how they receive his words. As for reply, he has rarely attempted it,—but, when excited by debate, has succeeded so well as to make his friends lament more occasions for using that ready weapon . did not occur. Like most men who do not speak very well, BULWER is fond of speech-making. Pos sessed of considerable landed property, (his mother's bequest,) he is one who cc has a stake in the country." Like most English country members, Sir EDWARD patronizes Agricultural Societies, at which farmers exhibit stock and TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1861. Buhver's Anti-Americanism. green crops, clodhoppers plough furrows in emulation for prizes, and aged laborers obtain very small rewards for having brought up large families without appeals to the pariah for workhouse relief, or without being detected in dining on snared hares and rabbits, netted partridges, and hand-caught pheasants, which are tamer, in the preserves, than barn-door fowl. The Ueda' Agricultural Society held its annual meeting on the 24411 ultimo, and, as a matter of course, Sir EDWARD &LIVER-Err- TON was present. The custom of concluding everything with a dinner is so common in England that DOVOLAS JERROLD scarcely exa gcratcd when he said that if London were to be destroyed by fire, flood, or earthquake, the survivors would celebrate the event by a din ner amid the ruins. After each Agricultural dinner there is - a good deal of public speaking, each orator commencing hii address by a eulo gizing the wise policy which, accepting such meetings as perfectly neutral, excludes all politic4l discussion—and then dashing right into as • nuch politics as possible. This was exactly what BULWER did, on the occasion re ferred to. Nominally addressing the farmers, who generally constitute the majority of the cmpany, he spoke to the public, through the reports. His speech was carefully elaborated, and took the listener round the world. He touched upon Italy, Austria, Russia, France— he " coaled " in the East, and just lingered a moment at British Columbia—he coasted the Pacific—and he crossed the Atlantic, to pay his respects to this country. Sir EDWARD BULWER-LiTTON thinks we are in a bad way, but takes credit to himself for having long foreseen our civil war ; he fore told that it was inevitable ; he now predicts that the young men who heard him would live to see not two, but at least four, and proba bly more than four, separate and sovereign Commonwealths arising out of the United States. He thinks such separation would be attended with happy results to the safety of Europe and the developement of American civilization ; and he declares that had our Union continued undisturbed no single King dom in Europe could have resisted us, for that 4 ‘ America would have hung over Europe like a gathering and destructive thunder-eloud." Therefore, BrIATER of the many names rejoices in the state of affairs here. We have not space to discuss his proposi tions now—it took so much to describe the gentleman—but shall view them seriatim, to morrow. It is worthy of notice that The Times, anti-Atuerican though it be, treats the Bulwerian speculations with decided con tempt. A Patriotic American. Our wealthy fellow-citizen, JOSEPH HARRI SON, Jr., whO has been abroad for more than a year, attending to private business, writes a letter to a friend in this city, dated Paris, September 27, from which we are permitted to make the following extract : " Little did I think, when I left home, last Octo ber, that our dear country, the land of all our hopes, the pole-star of human Liberty throughout the world, would so soon be engaged in a death struggle for her existence as a nation. But the event is upon us, the gage of battle is thrown, and we of the North must fight it out like men. The great family of man demands this, and we must not shrink from the contest. No eompronazse, no peare, until tbe soutbern oligarchy is brought to its senses. The North must dictate the terms for the settlement of this question, whichever way it goes. Union is our national palladium, and I have full faith that our country will yet be one harmoni ous whole. The North must succeed in this conflict, or good night to national self-government forever. The jackals of despotism howl already, on this side the ocean, and England, free England, leads the pack. Let them be disappointed of their prey. %dive them not the satisfaction of gloating over the dead body of RepubliCan Liberty. But, enough of this. You know well where I would be found at this crisis, and with gladness I tell you that, in nearly a year of travel in Europe, I have found but few Amerittuis less earnest than myself in their Union feelings." Publications Received. Many of onr readers will be glad to learn that J. B. Lippincott 4t , Co. have just ready an octavo edition, with portrait and several hundred engra vings, of General McClellan's " Armies Of Eu rope," being his celebrated Report on the military systems of England, France, Russia, Prussia, Aus tria, and Sardinia, made while he was Military Com missioner in Europe, during the Crimean War, in 1855-56. The same house publishes the General's other works-viz: Regulations and Instructions for the Field Service of the United States in Time of War; European Cavalry; and Manual of Bayonet Exercises. The last-named is a translation from the French, recommended by General Scott, in December, 1851, and was prepared for the use of the United States army. From Samuel C. Upham, 310 Chestnut street, we have the Illustrated News of the World, of the 28th ult., with a full-length portrait on steel of the Rev. Newman Hall, LL. 8., a popular Eng lish dissenter, who preaches in Surrey Chapel, Blackfriars, London, formerly under the ministry of the exemplary and eccentric Rowland Hill, and, after him, of Mr. Sherman. We also have the illustrated London News, of the came date, containing, with many other engravings, a view of the nave of the building now being erected in Lon don for the Great Exhibition of 1862, and two sketches of the Great Eastern: one showing the big ship being towed towards Cork Harbor, and the other representing that "confusion worst con :queued," the state of her grand saloon during the gale, with furniture flying about, looking glasses smashed, and passengers and seamen scat tered on the floor in all directions, or falling about in a perilous manner. By the way, in the last number of the New York Albion, there is a very graphic account of the accident, from the pen of Mr. S. J. Ahern, the business partner in tho 414- bion of f icc ) whe was .a passenger in the mammoth vessel. Mr. Ahern, it seems to us, has hit upon the cause of the accident, when he blames the Great Eastern Company " for sending the ship to sea like an immense pontoon, twenty-six feet in the water and thirty-one feet out of it—too light in the opinion of many sea-captains, by at least ten feet." From Mr. Upham, we also have the Octo ber number of Tem/dollar, AIL Bales now maga zine. The editor's own romance, " The Seven Sons of Mammon," is the principal attraction this month, and surely the Derby-day at Epsom Races has never been so well described before. The Corwhill Magazine was not published in time to be sent off with the new number of Tem ple Bar. How Foreigners View McClellan The Montreal Herald, a paper that is now con ducted with more ability than most Canadian jour nals, has the following notice of General McClel lan, in an article on " The war in the United States !" General McClellan is understood not to be very communicative, and he may see in recent events grounds for believing that whatever comparative improvement has been effected in his army, the ab solute standard of efficiency is not high enough to warrant any hazardous enterprise. The repetition once more of the often-repeated blunder of one corps of Federalists firing upon another shows a nervousness and precipitation which cannot be re assuring to a commander, whose reputation depends not upon tke skilfulness of his own dispositions, but upon the steadiness with which they are carried out. The wanton and barbarous destruction of proper ty by the Federalists upon occupying again the po sitions vacated by the Confederates does not con vey any high idea of even their present discipline. McClellan, therefore, may hesitate still, for in deed the cause for which he fights cannot afford any . more disasters. Strong as the North is in com parison with the South in most of the elements of warlike power, the war has been for her arms almost a uniform succession of disgraces. It is the hard task of McClellan to restore the prestige which has been lest, and in order to do this .he must not strike till he feels secure that he can de so effectually, In the meantime ho has boon fortifying Washing ton in a manner which we understand is much ap proved by British officers of large experience, who have seen it, and has thus not only protected the capital, but formed a rallying point in ease of another disaster. Of course, there, is nothing more easy than for domestic or foreign erities to show That any commander is an ass up to the tune when he shall have proved himself a warlike genius. Wellington himself hardly maintained his position against the wiseacres at home, whilehe was creating the lines of Torres Vedras. It will not be until after he shall have made his stroke that the world will be able to judge of the stuff of which McClellan is made, fur at present he has never been matched against any enemy whose defeat could be regarded as a great triumph. It is so far in his favor, however, that impartial and competent judges, both French and English, speak in high terms of what he has done since he took command. From Fortress Monroe FORTRESS Moynoz, Oct. 13.—Twelve members of the Eleventh New York Zouaves were taken prisoners by the rebels yesterday, when a short distance above Newport News.

THE SITUATION OF AFFAIRS. INTERESTING FROM THE SOUTH. FROM GEN. BANKS' COLUMN. THE NAVAL EXPEDITION. Ihe Army of the Potomac. MISCELLANEOUS WAR NEWS. The Armies in Western Virginia. AFFAIRS IN KENTUCKY. Where is John C. Breekinridge The locality of this notorious personage is mythi cal indeed. One day we have the announcement that he is fleeing toward Tennessee accompanied by George B. Hodge and a whole coterie of lesser lights. Next day, Hon. H. R. Stanton, ex-member Of 0011Ste#11 from the Mayas-Me district le arrested and sent to Fort Lafayette for expressing an earn est desire that Breckinridge would push forward some indefinite column of Confederates and take possession of Maysville. Then, the good people of Ashland, a beautiful village at the mouth of the Big Sandy river; are alarmed at a supposed de scent from some of his marauders, and the Home Guards of Lewis county rush up the Ohio to as sist in this vague defence. Even Henry Wads worth, the member of Congress from the Maysville district, raises the red cross "o'er hill and dale," and a thousand men come at his summons to march against him upon whose shoulders " the mantle of Clay (it was arrogantly said) had fallen." But their march was rendered unnecessary, for the very mythical assailants had disappeared. After having located the late 'Vice President at Grayson, the county seat of Carler county, Kentucky, they now transfer him to Prestonburg, the seat of justice for Floyd ; the latter county being the second south from Carter toward the Tennessee line. There seems now but little doubt that the fugitive has found a temporary abiding place at this point. Prestonburg Is situated on the West Fork of Big Sandy river, the stream which divides Kentucky from the Old Dominion through a space of over one hundred miles. This village is right in the mountains ; its location is high and healthy ; its water very flue, and altogether it could be formed into a strong military position. It seems, however, as the moun taineers in that region neither own nor feel any very deep interest in " Sambo," that Secession does not thrive well. The principal recruits he has are from the " Blue Grass counties," as they are called. This is the name gilien among the moun taineers to such counties as Mason, Bourbon, Fayette, Woodford, etc., where that kind of grass is grown, and where large quantities of cattle are grazed. They bear to the mountain counties, in point of richness of soil and cultivation, somewhat the re lation which the lowlands bore to the highlands of Scotland in former days. There are three or four hundred people at this town. It is probable, as the Big Sandy is navigable for steamboats for a full hundred miles, that it is now being used to introduce contraband goods from the North into Tennessee and Virginia, as they can no longer pass through Paducah, Smithland, Louis ville, or Maysville. It may be that Breekinridge has chosen this locality for this very purpose. George B. Hodge Is the son of William Hodge, of Mayslick, Mason county, Ky. The old gentleman is a sound Union man, with every interest and feeling of his heart enlisted on behalf of our nationality. The son re ceived an education as midshipman in the navy, and served several years in that capacity. On account of intense deafness he resigned. Upon his return to Kentucky he became active in politics. He married into the family of Cel. Tibbets, a De mocratic member of Congress from the Covington district during Mr. Polls Administration. Re ceiving the Whig nomination against Richard H. &anion (now in durance vile for his treasonable sentiments), he came very near beating him in a district heavily Democratic. Since then he has boxed the political compass. At one period a vio lent American, he has since become a pseudo De mocrat, and was, in 18€4, a violent partisan for Breekinridge and Lane_ Such is the principal fol lower of John C. Rrockinridge amid his falling fortunes. Possessed of brilliant declamatory pow ers, he is a creature of impulse, full of dashing, go-ahead bravery, and with no inconsiderable experience in naval affairs, and he will doubtless perish in some mad-cap attack upon the Federal troops. If not attached to the staff of Breckin ridge, who is to be made a brigadier general in the Confederate service (if that appointment is not already made), he will doubtless be attached to the cavalry. Gen. .Nelson Is also a native of Mason county, and is at present in command of the camp at Washington, in that coun ty. Having been educated in the navy, and having attained the rank of captain, he was detailed last spring to command the Ohio river fleet of gunboats. His extensive acquaintance with the people of Ken tucky, and his large relationship in that State, pointed to him as a proper person during the bad health of Om. Anderson, to be sent into Kentucky to sound the loyal sentiment of that State, and to strengthen it. Accordingly, as early as April, he went thither, and began the formation of a camp, and the recruiting of troops at a point between Garrardsville and Danville, since known as " Camp Dick Robinson." Sometime since, Col. George H. Thomas,. of the Second Cavalry, proceeded thither, having received, the appointment of Brigadier General of Volua.- tears, and assumed the command. Gen. Nelson. at once was ordered to form a camp at Washington, Mason county, Ky., for the enlistment of troops.. He is now in command there, and is recruiting with great rapidity. He is full forty years of age, with a massive phy. slque and commanding presence. To fine natural abilities, and large experience in arms, he adds great energy of character, and fine judgment of men. He it was who recently ordered, the &Treat of Stanton, Caste, and Co., though they were old friends and companions. He does not recognize any relationships in life when duty demands their prostration or sacrifice. Ms brother, Thema Nel son, of Indiana, is our present minister to. Chili, and his brother-in-law, J. Monroe Stockton, postmaster at Maysville. Washington. The ;dint at which Camp Nelson is. being formed is four miles from Maysville, or, in other words, from the Ohio river. It was, for more than half a century, the county seat of Mason--the seat of jus tice having been transferred to Maysville about fif teen years ago. The inhabitants of the town num ber about one thousand, black and white. Here resided and died, after a brilliant career at the bar, Alexander, the brother of Chief Justice Marshall. Here, also, ived and died one Judge McClung, the brother-in-law of the Chief Justice, and the father of Alexander K. McClung, so celebrated as a Mis sissippi duelist, and who was lieutenant colonel of the Mississippi regiment under " Jeff" Davis, at Buena Vista, and who died a foto de Be, at Vicks burg, a few years ago. His brother, John A. Mc- Clung, who drowned himself in the Niagara river, in 1859, was also from here. His career was re markably brilliant, both as a lawyer and minister, alternating during his life between both professions. Washington is located in the midst of one of the finest " blue grass " districts in Kentucky. A very large majority of the people thereabouts are loyal to the Union, and will make every sacrifice for it. Gen. Nelson will have five thousand native Ken, tuckians under his command before the first of No, vember. This speaks well for the sentiments. of, the people in that region. Expedition to Cumberland Gap. It is probable that Brigadier General Mitchell will be placed in command of an expedition to drive the rebels out of the Cumberland Gap, and thence to carry the war into Tennessee. lie will first take possession of the Cumberland.

SOUTHERN NEWS. Very Late from Richmond. On Saturday night, Retry Kerne,ll, on old farmer of Fairfax county, Virginia, who has been a prisoner at Richmond for several weeks, arrived in Washington, bringing with him a Richmond Divatch of the 19th, and the Enquirer of the 11th instant. The Washington Republican, of yes terday, publishea the following synopsis of their contents, which will be found quite interesting : The Valiant Roger A. Pryor Is a Candidate for Congress, and the Enquirer says that "to recount the services of Colonel I't or to the cause in which is embarked all that is dear to the Southern heart may seem to be un necessary.

The Electoral Tic It being necessary to form a ticket of electors: and the time being too short to call a Conventiolvof the people, it was suggested that the Richmond edi tors should prepare a ticket. thus relieving the people of the trouble of making selections.

This has excited the indignation of the surgeons, reho threaten to ,ceede from the army. wale= this implied suspicion of their ability is retracted. Corrupt Quartermasters. A correspondent writing from Winchester, Tenn., says that he has sent eighteen packages of vege tables and other comforts to the First Regiment Tennessee Volunteers in Virginia, and they have not been received. lie says the papers teem with similar complaints, and also of delicacies, wines, cordials, brandies ' Se., shipped to sick soldiers, being consumed by dissipated surgeons, assistants, and their hangers•on. The thinks the new Go vernment is already as corrupt as the old one. Quarrel between Floyd and the Officers of the Wise Legion. It appears that the officers of the Wise Legion have disapproved of Floyd'e conduct, and pub- Belted their oral:dime in the Richmond Enquirer, at which Floyd is greatly grieved, and sends a let ter to the Enyuirer, of which the following is an extract: HEADQUARTERS ARM" OF KANAWHA, "Camp en Sewell. October 6, 1.961. "In the Enquirer. of October 1. you have pub lished certain letters, dated in Cami)Defiance, put.- pprtiN to be written by officers in the " Wise Le. von. under my command. These persons pre tended to narrate my conduct in this campaign, particularly in the late actions on the Gauley and retreat to Meadow Bluff. Their statements are calumniatory falsehoods, having no shadow of truth for their foundation; but their intention, and not less their malignity, is too obvious to permit me to believe that they can be injurious, either to my own reputation , or that of the army which I than commanded." Ile then proposes to leave his repu tation to history, and to his "living countrymen, who love justice.'' In conclusion, he demands the names of the officers who invented and published the libels against "their general, that they may be tried by the military tribunals. and Washed ac cording to the laws of the army." To this letter the proprietors and editors of the Enyttt 107* tints reply : "ENQUIRER OFFICE, Oct. 10, NU. " Jon?: B. FLorn, Esq.-Bir: Your letter of October 6 is before us.

Instead of answering the challenge; the leader said to the•others "Beys, they've got us : pull back like y The sentinel gave• the alarm and fired, wounding or. killing at least one of the party, but before he could receive assistance or reload his piece, they were where he could.not get a bearing on them, and the boat and crew con sequently escaped. The-spot where- this occurred is near the farm of the rebel Cross. end-the men in the boat were, most probably- some of his friend. coming to communicate with hitn 7 or- ancrt4lll hi fate, as well as to get inside our .encampments; and report their condition. positions, and movements to the rebel leaders. It is stated that Cross himself spent several days visiting our. camps; lisguised-as a teamster, and riding-a mule, before being ar rested.

Polls were opened in the several company streets ; challengers appointed ; orators made stump speeches on the old plan, and the. whole camp, at times, resounded with cheers for this or that eaniii= date. Towards the closing of the polls mimic rows were indulged in, but nobody was hurt. In the evening, bonfires and hurrahs succeeded, and, final ly, a procession was formed, headed .by the band and torches, which marched through . the various streets, and the ceremonies concluded by a grand serenade to Colonel Murphy. some of the regiments are. preparing ; appa rently, for winter quarters. The Second Massa chusetts are erecting a spacious -stable for their horses, and digging cellars for-their tents.

Cross $ who, early in th e r ebellion, reerviiea mva vn.tbe upper Potomac, in Maryland, for the southern army. Ile has a brother-in-law in jail at. Richmond, who is held as a union prisoner. A brother, also, who resides in Maryland, he endeavored. to..ine.stee to enlist in the rebel cause, and, failing in this, decoyed him across the river, where he informed against him, and caused his arrest and.sonfusament. Cross has. been in the habit lately: bf. firing_at Union pickets across the Potomac, one of whom, at least, he is known to have killed.. Ile waa brought into Wash ington by a detachment of the Xian Allen Cavalry, whom he desired in vain.to .ta.kethim by a circuit ous route, in order, as he. said, that he might see his wife, but with a beliet.no.cloubt, that he would be rescued by friends.'''
