upper end of the narrows, below Saltsman's.
lie was a stranger to persons in that section ;
ibut, from the description given of the papers
found in a black wallet which he had in his

COL. JAMES E. ST3EDMAN.1 .
. We copy the following remarks, relating to
Col. Steedman, Irora the Toledo, Ohio, Herald
and Times. Col. Steedman is a brother ot
Mrs. G. R. Barrett, of this place. This brief
sketch will no doubt.be read with much inter
est by the Colonel's friends in this county :
"During the last year or two, it has been our
fortune to know (General) Col. Steedman in
timately. Now that be has demonstrated the
peculiar faculties of his nature in swaying the
masses, and has exhibited a patriotism and
loyalty to his country and his country's flag,
unexcelled by any, and shown that he is ready
to lead where any dare fellow ; we may be ex
cused in indulging a few personal remarks,
regarding the man who at this juncture, is the
leader of the host from this section march
ing to the battle field. .
In the first place he is "brave as Ciesar."
lie recognizes to the fullest , extent his ac
countability to his Maker and his fellow man
his government and its flag. That he should
have been chosen by the unanimous voice of
the One . Thousand and Sixty -Eight stalwart
men who flew to the standard of their coun
try, planted here, at the first call made, is not
in the least strange. .That ho was to univer
sally conceded to be deserving of the confi
dence so feelingly extended to him by men of
all shades of opinion, was a compliment point
ing to the highest pinnacle of his ambition.
, As a partisan, be has uniformly been a posi
tive man, ever since he was old enough to en
list in the political arena; and that l.e should
not have had virulent enemies, would have
argued a supple geniality of temperament,
which he never cultivated, and tor which be
would hold another in contempt. Atl'able and
courteous, he has ever been with .all even
his most earnest and wanton defamers; with
scarcely an exception ; while no man was ever
more ready to give credit to those politically
opposed to him for every exhibition of earn
est and honest manhood, than was he, until it
was no uncommon thing for his political ad
versaries to seek counsel from him regarding
the science of political ethics a compliment
to his political : sagacity, of no uncertain
meaning. ' "
Sucn is the man, who leads the First North
western Ohio Regiment on, to the deadly
conflict, if conflict must come tbe man a
roqnd whom the hopes of so many thousand
hearts cluster. Would to God we had more
men of like calibre ready and willing to throw
themselves into the deadly breach and peril
their all for their bleeding country. , With all
the respect we have cntertaiued for the man
in tbe past the full limit of our admiration
was reached, as we saw him yesterday morn
ing receive tbe stand of regimental colors pre
sented by the ladies of this city, at the close
of the brief but sublimely eloqnent presenta
tion speech made by M. R. Waite, Esq.; when
his whole frame quivered as he looked about
him and witnessed the heroic confidence re
posed in him by the thousands of glistening
eyes when his speech so nearly failed him.
For him, who would neither quail or blanch
before the belching furj' of the dogs of war;
for him,! whose lips were wont to glow with
words of burning eloquence ; to loose his self
possession f or the moment at such a moment
ws creditable to the heart that beat ruspon
sive from within.
No man in these exciting times, Hill be so
greatly missed, whom ruthless war has torn
from our midst. It is a relief and consolation
to know that the burden of sighs and fears
which oppresses the community will be so
greatly relieved by the knowledge that he is
the chosen leader of the regiment on whose
shoulders they will be so manfullv carried.
Constitutionally created to bear griefs with
heroic endurance, and endowed with the tact
and finesse to constitute a gallant leader, we
shall expect to hear that he is the idol of his
command and the guiding star of their ambi
tion. No more fatting words could have been
spoken than the closing sentence of his re
marks on receiving the flag : "God prosper
the Right."
Bom Sides Sold. Certain leading Union
men in Kentucky appear to have fallen into a
trap in consenting to recommend tho armins
of the State, while under its present authori
ties. It is easy to see that all the benefit of
this bargain will insure to the disunionists. by
virtue of the certain law of revolution, which
always gives the advantage to the extreme
party. With the State in the hands of a Mil
itary Commission, presided over by Governor
Magofhn, there can be but little doubt that the
Unionists of Kentucky will have been guilty
of taxing themselves to put arms in the hands
of their enemies. That the secession of Ken
tucky will involve the immediate destruction
of slavery in that State even the disunionists
themselves freely admit. This result, with
keen foresight, is now clearly announced bj'
the anti-secession newspapers in that State.
The Louisville "Journal1 in a recent edi
torial on the subject, says ; "The passage by
the Legislature of a law of unconditional e
mancipation, within three months, of all such
slaves as should accept the boon of freedom,
would not extirpate slavery from our soil eith
er more utterly or more speedily than the go
ing of Kentucky into the Southern Confeder
acy would produce that result. Many even of
our secessionists feel this truth in spite of
themselves. We know of scores, we have
heard of bundieds, of ardent secessionists in
Kentucky, who, in expectation of her seces
sion, have sent off or making arrangments to
send or take off their slaves into the Cotton
States as the only hope of not losing them."
Thus, in Kentucky, as in disrupted Virginia,
slavery is wounded in the honse of its. friends,
and receives its death-blow from the bands of
men who would murder Liberty in its defense.
Of all the marvels of history, there is none
that eqnals this, and no more signal vindica
tion of the ways of God in man."
The Tragedy in St. Lons. A citizen of
St Louis writing to a friend iu Philadelphia a
bout the firing of the troops upon the mob on
Friday of last week, of which he was eye wit
ness, says : "Atter toe surrender tho loyal
soldiers were drawn up in a line outside of
but completely surrounding the enclosure of
tbe camp. A portion of the soldiers who had
just surrendered, composed of drunken levee
rats, with some citizens, were inside, and
such outrageous abuse I never heard, ending
la -the stoning of the soldiers, so tnat mere
was no alternative tor me soldiers out to nre
on the crowd or run wun ineir arms in ineir
hands. No one regrets more than myself the
necessity of firing on the crowd, but if it had
not been done the scene of Baltimore would
have been re-enacted in St. Louis."
What Aems thet Hate. The Richmond
Examiner publishes, on what it calls official
and indisputible evidence, that Floyd transfer
red, in one order, from Northern armories to
Southern States, during his term of rascality,
114,866 improved arms. Since then 142,000
have been stolen from the puonc arsenais,
making nearly 300,000 of the best arms in the
hands of the rebels.
Secession. Every American citizen should
be familiar with the following words of Rkctt,
of South Carolina : "Tbe secession of South
Carolina is not an event of a day. It is noth
ing produced by Mr. Lincoln's election, or ty
tbe non-execution of the fugitive slave law.
It has been a matter which has bern gathering
head lor thirty years."
- W ill thet Fight. General bcott has now
a powetiul force at his command, and under
his plastic hand, it is no doubt well organized
but whether he is still standing on the defen
sive, or laying his plans to carry the war into
Africa, we have no means of ascertaining
One thing we do khow says the Pittsburgh
Gazette the country has entire confidence in
the wisdom and skill of that noble old veteran
The Southern leaders still threaten to make
decent upon Washington ; and as their follow
ers imagine they are the only men m th
world who know how to fight, and as they have
been taught to believe that they can take that
city, the leaders must make the attempt or
suffer a defeat at home. , To show the feeling
at the South it is onlv necessary to sav, that
some young fellows of Alabama have ticket
out for a ball at the White House, on the
Fourth of July. Nothing short of the posses
siou of the National Capital will satisfy them
Leave them in posssesiou of their plantations
and negroes; give thtm a separate governmen
south of th? Potomac ; and let them make the
best of all they own and all they have stolen
and it would not satisfy them. Like Ilaman
they would stul crv. "All this availeth me
nothing so long as I see Mordecai the Jew
(Lincoln) sitting at the King's gate" (the
White House.) They are, therefore to try it
Very likely General Scott is quietly . biding
his time, waiting until they run into a great
trap he has set for them at or near Washington
They will propably attempt to take the city by
storm, but they will fail, and that failure will
be fatal. That army destroyed, they have not
the means to raise another.
Dastardly Outrage upon the Americas
Flag The New York Times of Thursday
publishes, among other Information it receiv
ed from passengers who recently arrived from
Savannah, Georgia, the following statement
"On the occasion of the a'rrival and speech ofMr
Stephens, a large procession was formed,
which marched through the city. They car
ricd. painted on canvas, a representation of
the American flag, soiled and torn, suspended
by a broken flag-staff. Underneath was the
picture of a grave, with the words, "Receive
me." This outrage upon tbe flag aroused
feelincs of deep distrust and indignation a-
mong the still loyal portion of the citizens,
and one gentleman, a venerable pastor ol the
Seamen's Bethel, openly denounced the pro
ceedings declaring that Savannah had bevn the
first to dishonor the glorious banner of the U
nion. On being threatened with violence, he
told the mobocrats, that,' though he was an
old man, he would defend himself if attacked,
and some of them would bite the dust it they
laid their bands on him." It is difficult to
conceive how men who have long enjoyed the
protection of our glorious standard could
have acted in this shameful manner ; but even
this dastardly outrage is only in keeping with
the whole Rebel movement. .
The Madness of the Rebels. bcenes ara
constantly transpiring in tho rebellious States
which would disgrace any country . -and age
and which indicate not only the lack of patriot
ism which is too plainly evident, but u reck
less shamelessness, a degree of abandoned and
villianous dishonesty, cruelty, and absolute
barbarism, for which the modern history of
civilized nations furnishes no parallel. . The
inflamed and excited mobs which, in many
places, assume complete control, act more
like demons than civilized beings, and the
most merciless savaces who have assailed the
unprotected settlements of our frontiers would
prove to them useful instructors in precepts
of humanity, of which they are evidently either
regardless or ignorant. It cannot be possible
that such depravecl wretches will long be eua
bled to set at defience the authority of a na
tion which, when aroused, is as powerful to re
strain and punish as it is rcild and forbearing
in its disposition
The Baltimore Clitper does not place
much reliance, on the subdoed state of public
feeling in that city, and warns the people of the
north how they trust the loyalty and repen
tance of Maryland, ihis is the manner in
which it discourses : "It is useless in the face
of notorious facts for gentlemen to deny that
tnere has been in this State, and in this city,
a determined purpose of immediate and it n
conditional secessoin. In the flood tide of
its popular manifestation it was openly avow
ed. That purpose is not in any degree ahan
doned; it mav be hidden, it may be absolute
ly denied, but it exists as the cherished
thought and hope of many who are accustom
ed to sway public opinion ; it lies close to the
hearts of some who conduct public journals
in our midst. The subdued tone of present
oxpression must not be mistaken for a change
of real opinion and purpose, for a yielding of
anvthin? more than a citrairetic noint."
L'
ilow they are Abolishing Slavert. The
Richmond "Examiner" says that Richmond
contains, at this moment, not less than five
thousand unemployed negroes. The tobacco
factories are closed, or working short force.
All the usual occupations of manual labor are
at a stand-still. Slaves walk tbe streets, whose
masters can find work neither lor hire nor for
nothing. It would be a blessing to the whole
idle and non-combatant population to give it
employment on the fortifications of Richmond.
Wheeling, May 16. The Committee on
State and Federal Relations made a report in
favor of calling a general Convention on the
11th of June, and appointing a Central Com
mittee of nine to be empowered to order the
re-assembling of this Convention before the
meeting of tbe general Convention, if neces
sary. .
The report was adopted, and the Conven
tion adjourned sine die.

on the Virginia side of the Potomac, at Mat-
