Western produce, proceeded last year down Lake

Gem. "nnE.

In the winter of 1854, resolutions were unani-
mously adopted by Congress voting sword to Gen
Wool, testimony Of his gallant and judcicus
conduct at Bucna Vista. On the 18th Of September
1855, Gen. Pierce transmitted to Gen. Wool "A copy
of the resolutions, accompanied by compliment
tary letter, in which it stated that the sword
voted by Congress had been recently completed
and that he would receive it at an early day
through the War Department. 1t is singular that
the sword was not presented till last May, when
Goy. Floyd, on assuming the War Department, took
the earliest opportunity to transmit, in his own
peculiarly handsome manner, the superb testimO
NAL of Congress to its gallant recipient. There is
doubtless some satisfactory explanation of the de
lay Of Gov Fl0yd's predecessor in forwarding the
sword to Gen. Wool. Being himself a soldier, and
one of the bravest and most chivalrous who ever
drew a sword we cannot suppose that he purposcly
withheld from valor and patriotism just reward.
