We reserved the Grand Vatel for the last--pro misiug to wind up with a dinner (on paper) to our readers, at one of these well-known houses. A few weeks ago, we should have finished these articles with that entertainment but for a me• lancholy incident. Row could any one write a chapter on gourmanderie, with the sadden ing knowledge that Very's was shut up ? So the fact is. The Pit Royal, which 80 long rejoiced in the Trois Fri.res Proven coax and in Very's—only a few steps separated—ought to he hung in mourning Ibr the extinction of Very's: Well! at all events, It h. been Moore has put Very's into the eternal embed zation of his "Fudge Family in Paris." Our own private impression, by the way, is that Tom Moore, innocextly enough, helped to kill Very's. He made its name so fareiliar in Eng land, after the downfall of Napoleon, that all English visitors went (pardon the puh) to Ve ry-fy his descriptions. To dine where Bob Fudge had realized the perfection of French cookery became the object of English ambi tion, and during, the last forty y6ats Very's has been haunted by the islanders. Two re sults arose—the carte gradually became less and less Parisian, and more like what, had such a no..elty been there admitted, one might have expected at Dolly's Chop-house, off Pa- . ter-noster Row, in London, and Frenchmen ceased to frequent a house whichwas becoming less and less perfect in its cuisine. The num ber of English visitors_ to Paris has much di minished since the Italian War of 1859, and the English e4/911Y 9f allrthetycartround visit tors has almost wholly been dispersed. So, home and foreign customers having subsided, Very's has become a 'mere memory of the Fast. We Slieind diop a fear upon these last words, but it might create the indignation of our compositor by rendering the "copy" ille gible. [By the way, it is right for printers to know that, while, until a recent period, actors were legally designated " Vagabonds," in England, a statute passed le thy rcign of Queen Anne distinctly declares that printers, like attornies, aro gentlemen. The distinction arose in this wise : When swords formed a part of genteel they were worn by many who, neither by birth, education, nor calling, were entitled to be considered gentle-men. To place the matter out of dispute, an Aet of Paplia.nseiit was passed, in which were set forth the va rious classes authorized to wear swords, or rapiers, as part of their costume, and, in this statute, printers are expressly named as en titled to what, at that period, was considered a privilege. The word " printer," in the time of Queen Anne, meant the compositors who, out of a chaos of type, put men's thoughts into the form which preserves them, if worthy, for the future as well as the present. Em phatically, then, every compositor is " a gentleman,” by Adt of PArllamant—in a word, by the same authority which, justifying the removal of the Stuarts, acknowledged William of Orange BS Xing of England, and made the Hanoverian Guelph succeed ig brandy-faced Nan," as Queen Anne was irreverently nick named by her own Court.] Ali this time we nave been waiting outside the Grand Vatel. It was a restaurant in honor of a great man—the too sensitive martyr to Science: He it wag who eloyatati, fect—as it always was in his handS 2 -It - ij. quired the mingled experience of a chemist, a naturalist, and a philosopher.

At the age of thirty-two he was sent by the Republic of Berne on an embassy to Frederick Augustus, the King of Poland, and, having much leisure in this capacity, devoted it to study and authorship—the principal re sult being a work, " The Law of Nations; or, Prineiples of the Law of Nature Applied to the Affairs of Nations and Sovereigns," first published in 1766, which has gone through many editions, been translated into several languages, and is a text-book for diplomatists and statesmen to this day.

The St. Louis Republican, of Friday, says: The reports are that General Rains has advanced acing the Kansas border with his division, and is now somewhere in Bates or Ow otanty_ those reports are true, it is reasonable to suppose that the rebels under Renick, Hayes, and Webb will seek a junction with him, and are probably concentrating for that purpose.

These hopes, however, are destined to disappointment. The scattered squads of Seces sionista m the western port of the stete will be pre vented from making a rendezvous at St. Joseph, as measures have been taken to garrison that locality strongly. The Fiftieth Illinois Regiment and de tachments of other regiments along the Hannibal gt, thseph road have been ordered to a. Joseph ) and, at this writing, there are thirty-five hundred troops at that city. More will be posted there soon, and the work of pacification begun in earnest. Little is known of the precise whereabouts or the main body of Price's army. The people of Sedalia have worked themselves into considerable apprehension on account of rumors that the enemy was marching to take possession of that point. The troops at Sedalia are under command of General Sherman, and are numerically strong enough to resist any force lady to be brought against them, sinee'it is highly improbable that any design of at tacking the Union soldiers exists at present. There is now no doubt - in Parafefiee, to Price having advanced from Springfield with part, at least, of his oommand. As we have before said, however, this movement is more for victuals than fight, as the rebel soldiers seem to bo scattered over #lO Mary in all directions—some towards LAIL WM aid Linn Creek, others towards Osceola, others again towards Warsaw, while seine are West, to wards Kansas. It is true they could all be con centrated in a short time for offensive operations, but to Our mind appearances certainly do not paint to ;Tuella proceeding. The worst features we see in s recent rebel movements are the ravages and out rages that are being perpetrated in neighborhoods but lately protected by the loyal troops. The southeastern corner of the State is just now the seers or active preparations by the rebels under General Polk. We have a report, which may be considered reliable, that the Confederates are in force at New Madrid, making strong fortifications there, t 9 operate against the gunboats when the Mississippi expedition is in readiness. These works are probably designed to strengthen Columbus, by rendering an attack in the rear from the Missouri side more hazardous. The fortifications at Colum bus have likewise been considerably and additional cannon mounted. Rebel . operations in that water have indeed, within the last two weeks, been prosecuted with extraordinary vigor, showing the enemy is alarmed and apprehensive.

The specter correspondent 'of the Chicago Tri bune, writing from Cairo, under date of Novem ber 29th, Ni3re So far, there has been . certainly nothing that would signify a movement before spring, yet affairs may at any moment change inaspect, and an offen sive pelley be revealed. The gunboto, upon which as much wtd[Zepend, cannot be got ready before Christmas and no extra diligence in that or any other mili tary undertaking can at present ho dis covered. Two of the new gunboats—the Pittsburg gil!cthcie.yeSe ago ol4rOre Louis—sta r ter] place, bil:Mairethboe th l l atter reported aground. About eight hundred marines are now at Cairo, ready to man the vessels at once, while anchored near the Kentucky shore is the Steamer Maria Donnisw, ti ft yigg pa board the necessary armament for them. When assembled in one fleet the gunboats and floating batteries will be formidable indeed, and,,of course, no important movement will take place un til they are ready, unless Columbus and the forti.: fled places be avoided, and blows struck by law forces at *lapsed spots in the enemy's country. Perhaps this will be the plan adopted, yet it would differ from so-called correct military autho rity, by leaving a formidable body of foomen en trenched in the rear, and ready to dribs 5h6.1.1 the slightest advantage oecur. A new feature has been.developed of rebel resources, and proves that brilliant invention can often claim dire necessity for its mother. Up the Tennessee river they have been tek.r . Ibly fright...a by our adventurous gun boats, which have paid visite weekly, or oftener, to them for some time. Secession wit has, therefore, bent itself eagerly to conceivea remedy, and has, at last, been safely delivered of the following They have taken small boats and placed tightly compressed cotton bales within their hulls, and like a wall along the decks, encircling the guns, and rising above the heads of men. Those bales are impervious to the heaviest shot, and naval men say that, properly armed, the boats would be most formidable craft. The cotton, being already loaded, will be easier carried to market when our fleets get ready to start. Among the hapertant changes here lately has been that of Fort Prentiss to the name of Fort Cai ro, by order of Gen. McClernand. To the many admirers of the general, in honor of whom the fort was first called . , the change is highly distasteful, and excites severe criticism. Col. Bugord, with his regiment, the Twenty-seventh Illinois, has boon as signed the command of it, and their quarters have been changed to that vicinity. The following is the order of Gen. IttoClernand : BRIGADE lIRADQUARTERS, Camp CAIIIIS, November 22, 1118 L. [General Order No. 23.] It is ordered that the fort established at thejunc tion of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers within the limits of the city of Cairo, be named and called Fort Cairo. Ordered that the command of Port Cairo be as signed to Col. N. B. Buford, of the Twenty-seventh Regiment Illinois Volunteers, from this date until further ordera l and that he be rupeptoil end 9beylid accordingly. By order of JOHN A. MCCLERNAND, Brigadier General Commanding. For some days the weather has been cold, and just enough rein falling to make the ground muddy. ,Soldiers, however, are comfortably quartered, as a general thing, and possessing plenty of clothing. As winter increases 1111 severity, however, warmer habitations and garments will both be needed. At Camp Bolt and NW* Point leg huts are being erected, and every preparation made for winter quarters. Here, however, nothing of the kind has taken place. There seems to be no settled plan for future army movemente t and everybody, in regard /5 what wilne done, trlTrappod in denied mys: t f ‘- 7 . The elldiera are universally tired of inac tion, and all' are in favor of a more rigorous poticy. Winter - its the time for Thlion movements, and unless they take ettee now they cannot next summer, The troops are In better spirits, training, and equipments- than ever before, and as a formidable rebelliow cannot be crushed by acting on the defensive, an. era anxious to see an opposite course pursued. Among. tkos signs of the times here is one that a new Wit imuuler will soon be placed in ebarge of this-post , by the authorities at Washington. My information , is derived from a gentleman to whom Gen. ITalleck mentioned the fact the other day at St. Louis. The Confederatle at Columbus are constantly fortit , j ite g , and the other day received thirty large cannon• from the South. They seem determined to make- Columbus the Manassas of the . West. At Bel-. wont the whole forest, for two miles surrounding, is being felled, in order .to make - an appmeh dila. cull as possible. Over one hundred guns are now in position at Columbus, and its - holders are loud in their threats that they cannot betaken. It is to be hoped that Gen. Halle& will have the nerve, as his soldiers already have the will, to convince them. of their miggile. Those of our men wounded i, the pittle of Belmont are doing well, and most of ' them rapidly recovering. They are 299 in number.

THE WAR IN KENTUCKY. Gen. Buell anti the Removal of the•Re bel Capital to Nashville The Louisville correspondent of the Chicago Times, writing from that city under date of Nov.. 2G, says : When some person, the other day, called Gen. Bell's attention to the telegraphic statement that Jeff Da-vis' Congress had determined to transfer their " capital" from Richmond to Nashville, he seemed tickled at such presumption, and replied : " That's - where we aro going." By the way, there is more of Jaak Patin courage then miy other kind in this new move of the rebel conspirators. The East Tennessee Johnsonites and Brcwnlow itcs have interrupted communication by the Ten nessee and Virginia. Railroad ; and they cannot 1511 'how soon Can. Sl:termer!, of the coast expedi tion, may make a drive in the direction of Branch ville, South Carolina, and so break the south eastern chain of railroad connection. This would leave the pirate magnates no back-door of escape when Meoleiiali closes 6 on them. It is quite possible that, in transferring their apparatus and archives of treason to Nashville, they add nothing of permanence to their den of location. But, "he that fights and runs away may live to fight another day." This is what they wes. en when they resolved on the transfer. Nashvillelias three back-doors of escape—the Chattanooga and Tennes see and Alabama Railroads, by moans of which they can fly into Alabama and Geergia, arid a little sireteli of the Nashville and Northwestern Rail• road, upon which they could spirit themselves away into the wilderness, if pressed out of measure and cut off from the others. Then they have a conve nient front , door of retreat, in the Memphis road. Besides, the country around - Nashville abounds in good turnpike roads, running southward. The Confederate carpet-knights wish to be as convenient ly situated as possible for a precipitate flight into Noxico, when our boa-constrictor begins to tighten his coils. The tomfool Russellville Convention despite the objections of Charleston and other rebeinewsapers, persisted in " making Secession ridiculous," But they took the precaution to have a guard of six thousand man marched tt, Rumellvillc from Bow ling Green, lest some of "Lincoln's men" should convert the farce into a tragedy. Up to Tuesday evening last they had effected nothing farther than to organize their cabal. LATE FROM THE SOUTH The South Caroltog 4ptgrabands, The Columbia (S. C.) papers publish the fol lowing official letter from General Drayton to Governor Pickens : Ckan LEE, Ilinannott.t.m, Key. lA, 1881. To Lis Excellency Governor P. W. Pic. - ens, Co hembia, S. C.: SIR : At the request of your Excellency, made baedQusrtere r have the , tulle and "Al - wrier oY the negrocs in - nits - portaimor the State entrusted tomy immediatetemmand. So far from there being any insurrectionary feeling among them, I can assure your Excellency that have neither seen nor heard of any net of pillaging, of violence in any direction. It is true that the negroes of a few plantations have shown a spirit of insubordination, by refusing to move higher up the country, when ordered to do so by their owners, but this disobedience should be emigned rather to a feeling of dismay tad utter helplessness at being left alone and unprotected by the precipitate abandonment by their masters of their plantations, than from any organized plan of resistance to the authority they had been aCCIEL toned to obey. Rat I e,oti feel much satistac tion in stating, for the information of your Ex cellency, that the negroes are fast recovering from their fright, and coming forth from their hiding places, ,and quietly and submissively resuming their egrioultural labors, without ilia gaidanse, oi presence, in many instances, of either master or overseer. In conclusion, would respectfully advise that all planters andoverseers, who are not mustered into service, and MS 693Sefi or agoras of property upon the mainland, should, without delay, return to their several neighborhoods, and thus, by their presence, prevent a recurrence of that excitement among their people which has been due in a great measure to their absence. With much respect, your obedient servant, Titimes F. DRAYTON, Brigadier General Commanding, Third Military District Department, B. C. The Cotton Crop and the New Defences _ . of - Savannah. A letter in the Richmond Examiner from Charleston, dated November 21, says : The amount of cotton ahagileged en the Amite. dons was very ceninderable. It is not easy to esti mate the quantity with certainty, but is generally said to be about fifteen hundred bales. Many of the planters, before quitting, set fire to their crops and such ether combustible property on their pre mises as could not be removed. It is eertainly to be regretted that, in the confusion that prevailed, this very proper stet was not more generally taken. But the first surprise at the invasion has now died Oita', and I think. the Northern Cievartirasat reckon, without fear of mistake, that it has obtained the very last bag of cotton and also the last contra band, that it can ever hope to seize by pouncing upon the coast of South Carolina. Concerted ar rangements between the planters and the military authorities have wisely been made by which no plantation will in future be abandoned until the crop is utterly consumed, the gin-house and other buildings destroyed, the live stook driven of, and the Wish removed to the interior: In the meat oxpoaed localities, that is, the ialanda adjacent to Port Royal, on which the enemy may at any mo ment make his appearance, the work of destruction is already commenced. For the past few [hue gangs of usgrus from the seacoast, laden with such effects as they can carry, and followed by droves of mules and horses, have been passing through this city on their way to the back country. Plight before lust the whole atmos phere is the eltjr, and for miles around, notwith standing the bright moonlight, was hazy and lurid. Many could not account for the phenomenon. It was the effect of the wholesale conflagration of cot ton now going on at Bdio-6., and other islands num vardisg hattrakti Post Ri. 7 .1..,101...-10.tou. Where ever the marauders choose next to land—and it is useless to disguise the fact that they can land at a great many points—they will find nothing but de vastated fields, deserted by all save the avenging presence of the partisan rifleman. The patriotic sacrifice which has been made by our planters is all the greater when we consider that the crops of the past season have/ar exceeded the best ever known. In my last letter I alluded to the strength of the defences of Charleston. Savannah also has been strongly fortified on a plan for which the conforma tion of its harbor affords peculiar facilities, and I understand that General Lee says that that city is now in a c9PAitin t 9 sada a pratractal and auo. mato/ defence. General Lee has gone to Bruns. wick, Ga. The Union Forces on the South Carolina the savannah liepullicoit of the 21st says : The distance of Hilton Head from the mainland, and the hazardtus nature p of all navigation in the neighborhood, renders it difficult for our forces to iippolidik near enougla form any very definite idea of their number or movements. It is under stood, however, on pretty reliable authority, that the enemy has abandoned Beaufort and Port Royal Island, on which it is situated, and are now marled to Hilton Bead, Pinknoy Island, immediately west and separated from the former by Skull creek and the point known as Bay Point, on Jenkins' Island, across the sound and opposite Fort Walker on Hil ton Bead. It is said they ant throwing up eittmeise and fa midable works on Hilton Head, thus giving evi dence of an intention to make a permanent lodg ment on the island. Skull creek is now completely under their oentrol , and the works at Braddock 's Point, on the south end of the island; command the entrance to Deufriski sound. It is said that a party of two Fedorala ventured on the main, and a day or two since, when being discovered by our men, one of them was captured; the other got to his boat in time snit azig.dg gind hie escape. Thu prisoner states that the fleet landed about 12,000 of the 20,000 with whom they set sail. lie could give no account of the remaining 8,000. The Savannah News publishes the following : On Wednesday last, Mr. .joha Qhaplig took w ith bin seven noggins and wont in two boats to the plantation of aunt, Mrs. Dunn, on Daufuski Island, for the purpose of bringing away such pro perty as could be transported. On Wednesday night be, with the negroes, occupied Mrs. Denali dwelling, intending to leave in the morning when the tide favored. About two o'clock yesterday morning the door of the hottse was broken down by a party of ten Lincolnites, who captured Mr. Ohap lin and five of the aegsoes, and conveyed them from the island in a boat. Two of the negroes escaped—one, who was in the cellar of the house, fled to the woods; another, who was sleeping in one of the chambers, jumped from the second-story window, and running to a point on the Wand where be obtained a boat, same to the city yester day morning. Before leaving the island he saw the Yankees leave in their boat, with Mr, Ohlt!iiin end the aro Peirce* on board, TWO CENTS. TAP 'Union Priablieft at New tiactins.

Tbfi Waitangi= corzospontiont of the New Tort Tribune says: A Union spy who left here some three weeks ago for Richmond arrived to day, having left the latter Vac! Winifictik,flliest, Lie brings important in. teuigence which he immediately communicated to our Government. Ho says the greatest excitement prevailed in Richmond and throughout the South respecting the naval and military expeditions along the entire Southern coast. The troops from the States most exposed signified their determination to return home, and largo numbers had already started. In Richmond, a few days before he left, much diffioulty was experienced in quelling a re built= spirit araerig sweral i ? gh.onts' from Georgia, South Carolina. and Louisiana. They were restrained only by positive promises from Jeff Davis and the Secretary of War that a sufficient number of troops should be despatched from those States to protest net only the States, b u t to drive the "infernal Yankees" from Southern soil. He states that preparations are being made to remove the capital from Richmond. The Vir ginians, however, were indignant, and were threat ening divers things against their Congress. There seemed to be, be says, a very general feeling among the Southern people to abandon Virginia entirely, and alio* her to fall into the hands of the Federal Government. They regarded it as too expensive to keep en army as hereoll.

Boston Transcript gives the followingsketeh of a sivech delivered in Boston, on the morning of the 80th lilt., by General Jame 11. Lane : Senatoe/ane was received with tremendous ap- plause. Alter the applause had subsided, he said that he felt embarrassed at addressing the assem blage before .him. When be set out in life, bis mother said thew Was fiabin i s t o prevent his Mee cess in life but Ysig unconquerable modesty. lie thought he had gat bravely over that, but still he was embarrassed wilco) he now found himself. The speaker desired tothank the mph ? of Boston for what they lied ‘7.frae, for leansas, which now, thanks to the liberalite of the people of Massachu setts, and the hardihood of the men in Kansas, was as sound in political sentitstent as imp of her proud sisters. General Lane said, ail ifireld , reaeliNhair for die institution of slavery had hem dies/imbed, and he asked of his audience hour much reverence they had left for the institution He then briefly sketched the efforts to fasten slavery upon Kansas, and described the commencement of the rebellion, His thee latiir ?fs .ted the audience, Are you not in favor of crushing ont the &eaves ? We want a peace—one founded on principle: He is a coward who desires a patched-up disc/saints ; ance of the war, knowing that ja ß dildrnma i k e .. %Med finaginitry conversations with the soldiers of Generals Price and Hallecisise armies. Ask those under the former, and they say that they arc fighting for slavery ) and le kre' those of the !att.:. ilale'cleis army is fighting to' crush treason, but for slavery. The General their described a case where fourteen negroes had ' es caped to his camp, and he protected them: Ile was subsequently ordered to return thaw to their masters He sought his superior officer, and told him that he would obey any legitimate order. but he should decline to obey this, as it was not In. gitimate. How many brave soldiers are thepeeple of Massachusetts willing to sacri fi ce for the institu tion ? As for himself, not a single deep of blik.V. • would ho shed to save the accursed System. The slaves could be easily won over by kindness.' When the Kansas brigade first went into Missouri, the alarm./ were a " little off." They had been told ' all sorts of stories as to the treatment they would receive from Lane's men, But a few Central/nib, who were with the brigade, soon informed them as • to the falsity of these reports, and slaves flocked • into their camp. Many were sent to Kansas, and • went to work in the new 4tnty, It we were prof/muting this war to maintain slavery and crush treason, it would require two armies, and the slavery-preserving army would hare to be very careful how it struck, as the insti tution was a very delicate T r -grigigiitio, and could of sterol war. In Missouri the policy that had been pursued bad enabled the disloyal masters to use their slaves against the Government. If we were fighting the war to whip the South, let us make an of all the means ithi arc placed in our power. Arm The negro against the negro. To illustrate his position, the- General said he would deduce a homely illustration. While he was in school he belonged to a fighting class, and had made his way next to the _,4 / 54.4, wi tgrn wan 61g fellow named Joe Darrag h, fat was none of your "hitting above the belt" games in those days, but regular scratching and gouging. Darragh maintained his supremacy, until one day he went in bathing, and received a, mini. heeisa /5. Pric%ron, law waited on his antagonist, and was shown the exact location of the bruise. The next day, the taro champions went at it again, and the fight continued. until Lana planted a well-tfireci94 hick agairat the bruited part et Darragtea leg, when the latter bellowed like a calf, and cried " Enough." The rebellion had a-sorer spot than there was in Jo Darragh's leg, and a blow properly directed would soon effectually destroy it. /_-t. PAlkiitert, if the proper policy had been pursued regard to the slaves, there would have been a howl in rebel dom before this time. And so in Missouri. Can't admit slaves in our lines, because they will betray us. That is a lie. I would like to ask Gan. Halleck when he learnt that slaves betrayed Fede ral armies. We had in our brigade 500 , slaves, and the brigade received more valuable information from them as to the movements of the enemy than from all other sources beside. They aro faithlla ettt gfaterul. They would die a thousand deaths rather than betray one secret of their liberators. It is enough to replace upon their limbs the shackles without lying about them. Gen. Ilalleok's experi ence may be different from mine. But where has he had any experienee? Don't undaretarid ate as denouncing Gen. Italleck. But I have been taught to denounce wrong and vindicate the weak, and when I fail to defend the weak who have been de famed, may God condemn me to the infernal rd &ions- IJo not whit to denounce Gen, mamma. I have never seen him. lie is a stranger to me ; but he has made a statement that I know to be false. Here the speaker detailed a humorous incident, showing how the Siave.owners cling to their human property. A lady, large, fat and forty, ha Etllo sons in the Secession ranks. She also had two slaves, who had encas ed from her claret:ea. Thla wo.min came to the General's quarters to look after her property: She was informed that the were beyond her reach, and that Lane was in put.- ng i jthon ire ao w ns it im in d he should hang them if he ea niggers." [GreatlV:4l:‘ blubbered tk. be sure and return ray ar you do with•my smut," Says he AR not promise to do any e.-1 ° .. 1.11 . 'nEr Lane . as he disengaged himself from her embraee- The General said that the Seeessionlift A , Indians in their ranks. What will you 1 1 ,, 4 oQi them? ("Swear them in," replied it valet 1 4 ,4; crowd.] But the whole S top m brow has mt ready' been sworn in two or three times. Four of the Kansas Brigade were taken by the Secessionists and turned over to the mercy of the Indians, who, after shooting them, hanged their 99FP.Slf, /n behalf of the Kansas Brigade, he stated that they were men of principle—godly men. Sturgis, after having been with the brigade a short time, called it a d—d (he didn't know as he ought to say that word) fanatictili 0111PcrittiCe Sat I hare ben w ith the brigade three months, stated Lane, and never saw a man intoxicated. At Osceola, they. knocked the heads out of 700 barrels of liquor, and never touched a drop. The fiat order belied to that brigade made it as offence, punishable with death, for any soldier t• enter a private house without permission of a supe rior officer. If we dojayhawking, we do it foryou through the Government. That brigade has ta ken thousands of gecko 91 eelt from the etore , houles of Masseur:l, and distributed it among the loyal mend the State. When he saw that Thomas had written to Gen. Fremont—(three cheers were here gives for Fremont)—that Lane's Brigade was committing depredations in Missouri, he immediately pepped • tater `pronouncing the charge false and scanda lous. In regard to the statement that the brigade appropriated women and children's clothes, he ob served that a number of slave women and children took it into their heads, in a certain instance, to be free. and that' m iss of p 9 ya of the clothing of their former owners, All the Kansas troops did was to see that the whites did not deprive the blacks of all the clothing which had thus come into their possession. The rpeaber concluded by remarking that the war could only be made a short contest by striking at slavery. Meet the issue tendered by the South fairly. Place the words , g Freedom to all" on your kaP,D9rf, nod the spirit of the old crusaders will animate your armies, firmness and steadiness will be imparted to the troops, and victory gained, and a permanent peace scoured. Six rousing cheers were given for Lane as he sat down, three for the Frlft§ Sri bde, and three for Vreworit. The meeting was highly enthusiastic throughout. The Eastern Shore Expedition.
