There was considerable excitement In Brook

tiful American girl from the possession of the
keeper of house of prostitution named Mrs

Mrs. Gregg is the mother Of a very beautiful
young girl, sixteen years old. and ACCOMPLISHED
to degree. The girl is proficient in the Frencb

The Union, rcmarkipg upon the fact that
confessedly important material interests to the
people of the United States have been over
Swallowed by immaterial matters, takes broad
view of the varied and daily increasing mate
rial interests which prove the value of the
Union and add strength to the political ties
that constitute US one people
The Union also makes another attack unon
the Star touching the municipal election.
The Union is disposed to distrust the patri-
otto professions of the Black Republican lead
ers in relation to the gulf difficulties The ex-
Perience OF the past gives it so little to hope
for from them in the future, that it declares
their continuance in the support of any just
measure looking to the vindication of national
honor may be hailed as promise of the utter
dissolution Of their party.
The Union further notices the triumph Of
the Derby Ministry in the withdrawal of the
resolutions of censure proposed against them
as indicative of the continuance of an admins.
tration likely to adopt reasonable counsels in
relation to this country.
Inc Union likewise continues to show Nh the
roooer Montgomery, as practical exemplica
