Letter from the Disbanded Volunteer
The spirit of restlessness exhibited by our old
friend in some of his late letters, had prepared
us for the announcement which he makes to-day.
Like an old war-horse that pricks his ears and
neighs when the battle trumpet sounds, the vet
Gran of the Mexican war and the Crimea starts
into a martial attitude as the note OF rebellion
from the disappearing profiigates of Utah rings
iover the land. Thither he is bound His blood
is up, and he would die OF apoplexy II ne eoulp
| not yentiate his patriotic indignation through
I the barrel of his rifle. We shall, doubtless,
| hear from him on his way to the seat of war
| and when he gets there. His campaign letters
may not be as polished and scholar like as those
Mr.. Russell wrote to the London Times from
behind the trenches at Sabastopol, but we have
an idea they will be quite as graphic and anu
| sing.
