effect Of this news, so unexpected,
was painful and depressing in the
cx,rcme. But few, in Findlay, slept
soupdly the night following such M.
welcome tidings. The news received
hy special messenger, at two O'Clock
next morning, changed the lace Of
things very materially. and although
the condition Of things was still bad
enough, tho Reaction produced a
buoyancy such as might he expected
after hearing. Of . great victory.
il Will be seen that the dTsasttr
was qaiie. insignificant, considering
ths humber engaged IN tho conflict,
and the panic that seized our Sol.

that the rebellion is utterly atrocious
in it's character. and that the gov
ernment must triumph, because II
has both might and righ, on its side!
Among others whom have met,
have heard this expression from the
lips Of q distinguished reignine
Prince, and | have no doubt that the
overwhelming sentiment Of the Ger
man people on the suhj"ct ia ex.
pressed therein. The resctionists, !
was informed in Frankfort, had been
Iinbilant during the Winter at the
prospect of a disao ution Of the

quiet. The sympathy for onr gov.
