[Special Correspondence of The Press.]
Orimptcries 0. 11., March 30, 1864.
A. Rev Sew of Cavalry
The old let Corps and General riferrittis division
of Cavalry were reviewed yesterday morning. A
abort distance from town, near the base of Pony
IWauntain, is a large epees of cleared ground admi.
rably fitted for military display and the manoeuvring
of troops. The, men were under arms as early as 6
A. M., and when drawn up into line by divisions
„
with bayonets glittering in the rising sun, and
colors, guidons, division and brigade ensigns flutter
ing in the rising breeze, the might was grand, im
posing, magnificent.
El=
Generals Grant, Meade, and Warren, rode around
the lines, but before the head of the infantry column
began to pail in review, a terrific rain storm came
on, which abruptly terminated further ceremonyand
display. The cavalry and infantry marched back to
their quarters through last-failing rain. All through
the day and all night long the storm of, wind, rain,
and sleet continued with unabated fury—soldiers
were wet in their tents, officers had the canvas-she'.
term torn from above them, and were left uncovered
on the ground in the midst of the thick gloom, while
the rain pitilessly poured out its wrath in great
drops upon theli bewildered faces. The Rappahan

As the indiaationi of a general movement of the
army become manifest, the symptoms of restless
ness among the few contrabands who still bear true
allegiance to their masters grows more and more
apparent, when, we learn, all the Degrees will go
with us. I remember when, with Gen. Costar, as
we passed through Madison Court House, on the
late raid, what a furore our Unexpected appearance
made among the contrabands. They gathered about
the corners of the streets, in small groups of three
and four, and with "bated breath" and nervous
gesticulations discussed the feasibiltty of " leablne

one man in the town. He wore spectacles, and
carried exemption papers in his left vest pocket.
With a woeful face and quivering 40108 he begged
me to "look at those niggers caucusing on the very
street corners." I remember seeing many of the

MADISON COURT HOUSE
Madison Court House is a picturesque little vil
lage on the slope of the Blue Ridge. Few soldiers
have ever been quartered for any great length of
time in the neighborhood. Consequently, there is
not that faded, whiny look about the place so per•
ceptible in towns long occupied by troops. Every
thing looks freak and clean. The original inhabi
tants are much scattered; many of them entered
the army in the heat of the excitement. MC lowa
people were at one time so rebellious that they
feared Virginia would not take a sufficiently bold
'tend for the sovereignty of the " Old - Dominion,"
and they actually threatened to secede from the
Union themselves. They are now heartily sick of
their past conduct. Captain Strothers keeps a corn.
pany of cavalry about them for the sole purpose of
assisting the conscription officere in enforcing their
Impressment'.
A FALLING OUT
Only two weeks ago, it wan reported the enemy
Were moving in tome around our right flank. Every
thing was prepared to move back to the heights of
Centreville. The family residing in the house ad
joining the one in which I stop had a servant whom
they bighly valued. Fearing she might make her
hegira amid the expected battle, they looked her up
in her master's chamber in the second story. When
things had assumed their usual strilnesl, the ladies
of the house went up stain to look for Jane. They
entered the room, and seeing an open window, with
a shred of Janes garments hanging to the easement,
very naturally suspected that their valuable servant
hadsgone without asking permission, of wishing
them good•ble.
The army is now regularly organized into three
corp.. The 2d, composed of the old corps and Sir
nay,' division of Sd Corps, is now commanded by
General Hancock. The sth has fused with it the
old let Co*s, and has for its leader General Warren,
whose headquarters is now in town. Sedgwisk has
the 6th COMA, embracing his own and a portion Of
the 9d Corps. Every preparation is making to in
erease the efficiency of this army; that when it
nitwit it will be with power and weight. AU this
time the enemy are not idle, and I think the coming
campaign will be fearful, terrible, and sanguinary.

. "Winter linger' in the lap of spring." It is snow
ing steadily to-day, which is something unusual for
this season of the year at this place. We hewn had
much rainy, disagreeable weather during the past
two weeks. Mud is the ruling element. The river
is riling, and, in a few days, it will be covered with
floating lumber, going to a southern market. Con.
siderable timber has already passed down, which is
commanding fabulous prices. A large amount of
boards and timber is waiting for "high water." An
immense quantity of lumber is now upon the upper

gone up out of sight. Buyers are paying any price
demanded, and, in a short time, the lower markets
will be well supplied.
An important bill has passed the House. I say
important—it may not be considered such by the
people generally. It is very well known that the
Northern tier of counties are isolated from the great
heart of the State. Tioga and Platte, in particular,
have no direct connection with the interior of the
State. They can only reach the capital by patting
through a portion of New York; consequently all of
their commercial interests are with the State of
New York. Their coal and lumber, In a great met
pure, find a Northern market, and their merchants
buy their goods in New York, instead of Philadel
phia. This state of affairs is not the choice of the
people of these counties. They would prefer to do
their business with the people of their own State,
but, by force of circumstances, they are compelled
ip do otherwise.
The bill to which I refer proposes to run a ralb
road from Jersey Shore (on the Philadelphia and
Erie), up Pine creek to Manchester, in 'Doge court.
ty. It there branches off; one branch running up
Marsh creek, down Crooked creek to the State line,
by the way of Tiogs, and to connect with the NeW
York and Erie at Corning. The other branch con.
tinues up Pine creek to the summit, noises over to
Cdidersport, and passes down the Allegheny, and
connects with the Erie Railway at Salamanca. The
recent bill only refers to the branch which connects
at Corning. The main bill passed several years
since, and was revived at the last melon.
This measure is of vital importance to the people
of the counties referred to, and their interest is the
interest of the State at large. These maniles are
full of coal, and covered with valuable forests of
pine, and it is to be hoped that a railroad communi

Senator Wilson, of Tioga, has introduced a bill in
relation to the assumption by the State of the debt
contracted by the different district" for the purpose,
of paying bounties to volunteers, which has been re.
ported from the committee with an affirmative re
commendation.:-;t provides that the State shall
pay $BOO to every county, ward, or township, for
each volunteer sept from each county, ward, or
township, under the call for 600,000, provided so
mush was paid by the respective, districts for va
luators. This is a question upon which there
may be an honest eifferenoe of opinion. It is a
question of great magnitude, and should, and
undoubtedly will, receive due consideration.
The State originally should • have paid the boun
ties. The process would have been more 'simple and
the effect would have been more equal, A State
bounty should have been given to each volunteer
from "Very subdistriet until its quota was filled. It
not now too late to remedy this evil, and Senator
Wilson's bill Is demanded by the best interests of
the country. The State can belt manage a dobt of
this magnitude. Besides, if assumed by the State,
large class of property can be reached for , taxation
which cannot • reached by the counties—a class
best able to help bear the burdens of the war. I
Mink this will pass the Senate without serious
opposition, and I know of no reason why it should .

New Ritual. er the K. v v . 43.,E.
The Chicago Tribune publishes lt new ritual of the
Knights of the Golden Circle," zepld.tuirave been
adopted at a meeting just held tit unit city, The
Tribune says :
"Its features are cunningly and skilfully drs,wn,
and if carried out would perfect a strong and com
pact orgaruzaUon. The society is composed of clubs
of ten, each acting under a chief. These clubs are
completely isolated, and unknown to each other.
The chief of one club reports back to the club where
he was initiated, but beyond these two clubs he is
unacquainted with the nadtviduril members of the
organization. These elubs ate composed of personal
friends or business men closely associated, so that
they may act in harmony or be readily called
together, and are provided with technical - algae,
passwords, and grips, and each member designated
by a number, the chief being 1, vice chief 2, &c. All
of the minor details of the organization and tile
programme for the development of its plans are
shrewdly arranged and elaborated, and make, when
combined, a powerful secret society, the detection or
suppreasion of which would be well-nigh impossible.
Unknown to itself, it would work, nevertheless, in
complete harmony throughout its various ramides
tioks to the accomplishment of its objects.
6 , This organization has a double object in view,
prat, the election of a Copperhead like McClellan
or Irallanaigham to the Presidency, try which the
independence Of the rebels may be secured With
slavery restored to them ; or, failing in that, the
kindling of- the flames of civil war in the North,
which shall compass the same object, and to this end
these clubs are being extended ail over Illinois, and
will rapidly spread through the other States. This
exposure will serve to put Union men on their
guard, and thwart their diabolical schemes. We are
no alarmists, but we warn loyal men of the danger
ahead, in the hope that by timely action and ener
getic efforts the plotting. of this treasonable organi
zation may be or notlivall."
Here 10 a passage from the "ritual";
"We are against the extermination of the white
race of the South, and against the universal mace
cipation of the black race by Federal authority.
e are against the effort now making to bring
bleak labor in competition with the Moor of the
freemen of Illinois. We are against every infringe.
Meht of the rules of civilized war. We are against
the Administration of A braham Lincoln; and We
believe that a policy looking to peace, founded on
good faith, an honest interpretation of the Constitu
tion, and a real desire to restore the former brother
hood of States and sections, are the only means to
reconstruct the Union and save the Republic"
Why a southern Born Man is Anti-Slavery.
There was an immense Union war meeting at
Bryon Ball, Chicago, last week, at which Governor
Yates, of Illinois, was the principal epeaker. In
the course of his remarks, he said :
"I am antislavery, not because I was born in
New England, and have my prejudices naiad the
Southern people, but because I was , born in the
South ; there centre all the memories of my youth,
there is the home of my kindred, and I believe that
the warm, genial pulsations of humanity flow in as
deep a current through Southern veins as in any
people beneath the sun—but slavery has been the
canker of the South, to eat out both its substance
and its manhood, and to subject it to a boastful, in
culling, arrogant aristocracy, which, from the habit
of tyrannizing over the poor slave, hes become too
pampered and arrogant to submit to the rightful
authority of good government and laws. Slavery
not only oppressed the African race, sundering hus
band from wife and father from son, exacting ser•
vice without remuneration, but degraded the poor
white, deprived him of his rights, reduced the wages
of his labor, divided the land into large plantations,
so that the white population was sparse and schools
few and remote. It stood as a perpetual living
wall, a black and ghastly spectre to roll back the
tide of emigration which was pouring from Europe
and NewEnglancl, and which sought the prairies and
woods of the Northwest, and which, under the
genius and lifegiving energy of free labor
and free institutions, has marched forward with
stalwart giant tread to wealth and power, while the
South, with its fertile soil and genial sky, lass
drooped and withered beneath the curse of slavery.
"It is for the South, as well as for the welfare of
the country, that I wish to see slavery extinguished.
Small farm., free labor, free schools, a free Press
and open Bibles, free institutions will make the
South bloom and blossom as the rose. [Loud
Cheers.] Whenever aelf-poised and conscious of
be moral statue and power—when every man can
lilt up to God unfettered limbs and soul—then the
South will start with a bound ; emigration and ge
nius, and art and enterprise will seek her sunny
hills and va les; and these shall be the Lookout
Mountains upon her deliverance and a race of, uri•
ending progress to wealth, power, and renown."
[Lengthened applause.]
The Ringleaders of tile Illinois Riot.
[From the Chicago Tribune.
Both Coles and Edgar counties furnish striking
proof and warning to all other counties in the State,
that no local office can safely be entrusted to disloyal
men. Two meaner tools of the rebellion cannot be
found in Illinois than the two infamous brothers,
William S. O'Hair, sheriff of Edgar county, 4nd
John S. O'Hair, sheriff of Coles county. Their fa
ther Is ex• Sheriff Mike O'Hair, of Edgar, and both
arc "chips of the old block," and of the three it
may be said that it is s. misfortune to the loyal
cause that the three are out of readh of the rebel
conscription, which would find them ready-made to
its uses, and far less dangerous to us in the rebel
service.
The share of Sheriff John O'Hair, of Coles county,
in the late disturbances is set down in our despatches
elsewhere. Both he and his brother are Men of des
perate character, and he seems to have led in the.
bloody work begun and carried out. It was a de.
liberate and murderous attack on the soldiers and
Union citizens, resulting in the loam of several lives,
many wounded, and the flight of the assailants. It
is noticeable in this case, as in Paris, Edgar county,
a short time since, that the assem bling was not a
chance one; that the Copperheads came alined, with
wagon., which were arsenals in reserve, and this
with a deliberate and deadly purpose.
In the Edgar county disturbance the brutal and
outrageous assaults of the Copperhead sheet at Paris
had excited the veteran soldiers, who threatened to
demolish it, but the apologies of the editor saved him
and it. But the Copperheads indignant at Um Imo
ceps of the soldiers in backing down the organ of
treason, had determined on vengeance, and, as is
sworn to in the testimony, the infamous sheriff, Wnt.
S. O'Hair, of Edgar county, secretly collected one
hundred armed Copperheads from (Mew, Clark, and
Edgar counties. impudently calling them in the se
cret missive a posse comitatus. The gallant soldiers
had seen rebels before, and a cleaning out and rapid
flight of the miscreants took place. One of them,
named Canady, was captured, says the Paris Beacon:
The sworn statement of Canady was taken by a
notary public. He declared that Sheriff O'Hair had
sent for these men to come to Paris in squads of three or
four, without arms, their guns to be brought in a wagon,
and Herded unfit occasion called for their use; that a

Canadian Politics-“" A Ministry at Last.”
Under the above heading. the Toronto Globe says :

The first thought that must cam to the mind of

Xr. PENDLETON, of Ohio, who yesterday
moved to reconsider the vote by which the House
disagreed. to , the Senate's amendment to the bill
organizing the Territorial' Government of Montana,
and appointed a committee of conference thereon,
said his object was to call attention to the oharamter
of the amendment, to give the Rouse an opportunity
to adhere to the provisions of the bid as it passed
the Rouse. The Senate amendment was Intended,
and he thought it was so admitted, to give negroes
the right to vote In the Territory at the first election.
It Was an amendment different front the provisions
in any bill heretofore passed, organizing .a Terra°.
rid Government. It struck out the words "white
male inhabitants,” and inserted o Male citizens of
the United States, without restrictions as to color,"
and this amendment was adopted by the Senate.
The attention of that body was milled to the feat
that the Supreme Court had decided that no negro
could be a citizen of the United States. Bat it was
Rll.l3otaletd that this decision - was wrong, and would
be disregarded. Lie wanted the gentlemen to under
stand that, for the first time, an effort was to be
made by the Federal Government to Pleee whites
and negroes on a political equality in the Terri
tories. Congress has passed tinae July 4th, Mi. six
hike organizing Territories, each providing that all
white male Inhabitants resident in toe Territory
shoind be qualified electors, The chairman of the
Committee on Territories had followed this pre.
cedent in the case of Montana, but the Senate bald
stricken out that clause, and inserted an amendment
permitting negroes to vote. We were making rapid
pregreas beyond the positions laid down three years,
ago, when the Republican party came into power.
Axe Black People Citizens':
He dembed to call the attention of the House to
this subject, so that they may, by their vote to-day,
determine whether they were prepared Ikeasionate-
Dance itr He did not say agree to a course of legit'.
Winn which will end in giving negroes the same
political rights as White men in the Territories. He
repeated, be wanted the House to decide whether it
Will adhere to its former action or not. If it shall
reconsider the vote of yesterday, he would move to
adhere, and then the Senate must recede, or lose the
bill.
Mr. BROOMALL, of Penney/vsnis, inquired
whether the gentleman believed nevem are citizens
of the United States.
Mr. PENDLEroN replied, if he had the deterini•
nation of the question, he would have very little
cifficulty in arriving at the conclusion that negroes
have no right to vote, but this does not depend upon
big opinion.
NIL BROOMALL asked whether or not the Su
preme Court had determined negroes are not citizens
of the United States. -
Dlr. PENDLETON replied, the Court had so de
termined, and asked whether Mr. Bropmall and his
Republican friends bowed to that decision. If the
gentleman did, and could speak authoritatively for
his party, there would be little difficulty in the case.
Mr. DitOOM ALL replied be had no right to speak
for his party ; but he would ask, in return, whether
the Cyurt had not decided, to the gentleman's satis
faction, that negroes are not citizens of the United
States, and whether he is not willing to let that de•
°Won alone
Mr. PENDLETON asked whether the gentleman
thought It had been so decided.
Mr. BROOMALL replied be had so read.
Mr. PENDLETON said it had been so decided,
but that Attorney General Rdes had advised the pc,.
litical departments that the deeision was wrong, and
advised than to art upon his opinion.
Mr. BROOMALL said, as the gentleman seemed
to be satisfied with the decision of the Supreme
Court, he hoped the gentleman would vote with
him.
Mr. PENDLETON wished to know whether the
gentleman was satisfied with that decision.
Mr. BROOMALL replied, if he were called to re
view the opinion, be would inquire whether such
animals were citizens,
Mr. PENDLETON repeated this wee the first
time it was sought to incorilbrateeuch a provision in
a territorial bill. He wished gentlemen to know he
wished a reconsideration, in order to get a test vote,
that the Republican party might show the sincerity
of their oft repeated declaration, that they were not
in favor of negro equality.
Mr. BRAMAN, of Michigan, said it occurred to
him the gentleman's argument was against the ac
tion of the Senate. He did not propose to discuss
the question whether it was expedient to give the
elective franchise to the colored race, but wanted
the Rouse to understand the question now pending.
The Committee on Territories bad reported a bill
organizing the Territory of Montana, and provided
that all free white male citizens of the United States
shall be entitled to vote. The bill was sent to the
Senate, who struck out the word "white," and it was
asserted by the gentleman that the effect of the
Senate amendment was to let colored men vote.
He would not Inquire whether this was the effect
or not, or whether such legislation was inexpedient,
but it was known the Rouse bad disagreed to the
Senate amendment, thus non-concurring, and ap•
pointed a committee of conference. The House had
paused a bill excluding colored voters, and the
Senate had amended the bill so as to give them this
privilege. As the question now stood, the 'Rouse
had refused to consent that colored men should vote.
The argument of the gentleman was there'ore op
posed to the position he has assumed. The gentle.
man's argument was against the action of the
Senate. In conclusion, Mr. Beaman moved to lay .
Mr. Pendleton's motion to reconsider on the table,
which was agreed to—yeas 63, nays 49.
On motion of Mr. SPAULDING, of Ohio, the
Committee on the Judiciary was instructed to in
quire into the expediency of so amending existing
laws with regard to jurors in the . qederal courts as
to secure fair and impartial trials therein, and to re
port by bill or otherwise.
The House resumed the consideration of the Ra
ritan and Dela were Bay Railroad bill.
Mr. SW EAT, of Maine, said he sincerely believed
the principles involved in that bill were unwarrant•
ed by the Constitution of the United States and
the laws of the country. He thought the CA
mittee on Military Affairs had made a report in
favor of declaring these reads post and military
routes, which could not be sustained by the fasts
and the law. He considered this subj.ot on its
merits alone, for he believed the man wno could
not rise above political questions on the matter
now at issue could not be an honest legislator.
His only feeling was to see the right prevail; he
was earnestly desirous for the sums, of our arms,
and to avail o, rseives of all proper means for the
transportation of troops and munitions of war, but
be could see no military necessity for the passage of
this bill. The President now has the power, under
the law of 1862, to take and use any railroads for
military purposes.
The subject went over, and the House went into
Committee of the Whole upon the State of the Union,
and resumed the consideration of the national bank
bill.
National Banks
Mr. HOOPER„ of Massachusetts, offered an
amendment to the forty-fourth section, providing
that any bank or banking association now organized
in pursuance Of the laws of any State under articles
of association which prohibit opecifted changes there
in, may be changed or converted into a national
banking association without any change in the
articles of association as may be prohibited by the
same, and it. directors at the time of the change
may continue in office, and their- successors may
from time to time be appointed or elected in the
manner provided in the articles of association.
Mr. HOOPER said the New York Bank of Com
merce desired to come under this law. It had a capi
tal of $10,000,000, and had done more to sustain the
Government than all other Institution.
Mr. BROOIVIALL was willing to let all the State
banks become National Banks, but he wanted them
to cease as the former when they became the latter.
He did not want such political miscegenation as to
make it difficult to tell what they were.
Mr. STEBBINS remarked that this bill was in
tended to do nothing more than to make the present
bank law effective, anti he should therefore vote for
It. But at the Same time he favored the pending
amendment, as without it the Bank of Commerce
could not come under the law.
Mr. ALLEY, of Maseachusette, opposed select
ing out the Bank of Clommerfik - and offered an
amendment to extend the principle of non.individual
liability to all other banks organized under this act.
During the debate the same gentleman remarked
that Mr. Hooperls amendment was making an Injudl•
Mous distinction, and argued that the provisions of
the bill should be applicable alike to all banking in
stitutions.
Finally, Mr. Hooper's amendment was adopted
by a vote of 99 against 46.
Mr. WILSON, of lowa, moved to amend the sec
tion providing for the redempption of note., so as to
confine it to New York, Philadelphia, an d Boston,
which was rejected.
Without concluding the action on the bill, the
committee rose, and, at 6.25. the House adjourned.
The Magazines.
The American reprint of Black:noodle MolaNiltd has
reached us through Mr. W. B. Zieber, South Third,
street. In the present number, the real and the im
eginative are pretty evenly balanced. The excellent
Irish story of "Tony Baker," which we take leave
to affiliate upon Charles Lever, is sandwiched be.
tween a grave speculation on "The Fleet of the Fu
ture" and a serious dissertation on "The Economy of
Capital." To these succeed an able review of a•
French work on the Italian War of 1869, in which
the wrifer treats of " Louis Napoleon as a General,"
and argue. that, though he won &Plinks, and other
battles, he did not exactly win them In the right
way,—whioh is precisely what old Mdlas, the Aus
trian, said of the other Napoleon, half a century
earlier. He sutras up as follows: "Anxious, then,
to do jirstic's to Louis Napoleon's abilities, we must
admit, after deducting the advantagel he possessed
in better troops, better weapons, more experiemied
generals, and irresponalble authority, that he showed
remarkable talent for conducting military operations.
His movements were far froM rapid, but they were
very complete. His orderly and careful advance on
the morning of the 24th July, so different from
the straggling array of the Austrians, was a.
main cause of the victory of Solferino. And, setting
aside the policy of the flank march to the Ticino, the
march itself, though not faultless, was reasonably
well conducted; while the preliminary feint and
movement across the Pe were musellently arranged•
He showed, too, a right judgment in direotlng the
mass of his force against Solferino. All these feats
were surprising in a man who not only then first
held a command, but who then' lint saw war, and
who began his military fiercer with directing two
great armies." Mrs. Oliphant% serial story, "The
Chronicler of Carlingford" wearily draws its slow
length along, and has beoome tiresome, because so
much. spun out. "A Letter from Schleswig-Hol
stein's favors the German side of the question. The
crack article, however, is the 109040 portion of
"Cornelius o , Dowd upon Man and. Women, and
other Things in General" The scene is chiefly in
Spezzia, where Lever, the 'novelist, is British Con

The April number of the ,eclectic Magazine, edited
and published by Mr. W. H. Indwell, New York,
contains a welbselected variety of readable papers
-from the leading British magazines and reviews, and
also a fine portrait of John Bright, M. P. for Bir
mingham. Here, however, he is set down as "The
Hen. Sohn Bright." 3n the March number, Kr. Cab.
den was similarly endowed with a prefix to which
b e had no right. We repeat, for the twentieth time,
that the prefix "Honorable" is not due and is never
given, in the old country, to any member of Para*.

peer. Not even Daniel O'Connell, When "Member
for all Ireland," was ever called "the Honorable
Daniel" . Mr. Cobden, son of spume farmer, and
Mr. Bright, eon Of a Lincashire manufseturer, are
not " Hon." by birth, and did not become so by en

GENERAL NEWS.
A LIGHTSHIP FOR. TRH ATLANTIO.—A. project of
a novel and important character has been for some
months past Un der discussion; and we are informed
that a company is now in course of formation with
a view to piece the proposal in a practical shape.
It is intended to station, fifty miles west of Scilly, a
ship, bearing a floating light, containing stores of
provisions, and connected by an electric cable with
the shore. It is considered that thus early news
may he conveyed, homeward ships may receive their
orderi whilst at sea, and much suffering. privation
and loss of life be prevented. The work
as to bel
carried out by Moore's patent for an improted me
thod of anchoring ships and attaching electric cables.
The idea is seriously entertained, and, if carried
out, might prove of much commercial value. We
should be sorry to pronounce it to be impossible, or
to throw an obstacle in the way of its accomplish.
meat ; but if Moore's patent min securely moor n

Atlantic, and can secure easy communication at all
times with passing ships and with the shore, the in
vention must be ranked as one of the most marvel
/OUs of the age—Western (Eng.) Morning NM'.
Alt INCREDIBLII BARBARITY.—The chivalry of
the South has exhibited a fresh proof of their
boasted devotion to woman. Not content with
giving her the precedence in the ball-room and by
the fireside, they would have her take the advance
on the battlefield also. These brave Southrons
rally valorously behind a woman's skirts. A. tele
gram from St. Louis interne UI that, at the late
fight at Paducah they put tlieir Mimeos females
forward as the bu lwark of defence against a storm
of Federal bullets, and, with a sharpness which
even a Yankee would not have practiced, availed
themeelves of a flag of truce to restore their shat
tered lines. In Southern parlance this may be
chivalrous, but the world will unite in pronouncing
such atrocity fiendish, and the annals of civilized
warfare will be searched in vain for a parallel for
so barbarous an outrage upon woman. We trust
that, for the honor of humanity, the despatch will
prove to be unfounded. •
