Death Of Col. Ellsworth.

There are many contradictory reports
concerning the particulars connected with
the assassination Of this brave man, bu}
the following is about what We suppose to
be nearest the truth:
Col. Ellsworth was shot dead while de-
scending the stairs Of the Marshall House,
with the secession flag which he had torn
down from the staff on the roof. The
murderer was instantly dispatched by 4.
+. Brownwell, of Troy, N. Y, private in
Company A, Ellsworth's Regiment. The
Colonel was shot between the third aud
fifth ribs, shattering the fourth rib, slugs
entering the left ventricle of the heart,
destroying all integument with which they
came in contact; the other charge of the
gun-a double-barreled one-entered the
wainscoting near him. The Colonel fell
on his face, exclaiming, "My God" and
the blood gushed from his wound with
such profusion as to drench the entire pas
sage. A few seconds afterward he uttered
low moan, but his eyes were instantly
fixed, and he had ceased to breathe He
was laid on bed in room near at hand,
with the rebel flag stained with his blood,
now a trophy of his glory, about his feet.
The man who killed him was James W.
jackson, keeper of the Marshall House,
He must have died as suddenly, for he
was shot through the head, and afterwards
run through the body by the sabre-bayo-
net Of the same private. His wife pres
emily noticed the fatality, and approaching
the body, uttered the most agonizing
cries and although treated with the ut
most consideration that could be offered
her in her misery, she remained long
time in the widest state Of frenzy. The
house was in the utmost confusion-lodg.
ers darted from their rooms, but were held
in control by four or fives Zouaves who
accompanied the Colonel, and at once es
tablished and maintained order.

1t appears now that we shall not hear
so much about returning fugitive slaves
Gen. Butler has given a decision which
will furnish precedent to be very cheer
fully followed. Three slaves belonging to
Col. Mallory, now in command of the reb-
el forces near Hampton, having got into
their heads some "yague notions Of free
DOM" as we'll as some very distinct notions
that they were about to be sent further
South, prese ntcd themselves at Fortress
Monroe, and sought protection: The rob-
el Colonel sent an officer with flag of
truce, and had the inconceivable impu:
dence to demand that the negroes should
be given up under the provisions Of the
Fugitive Slave Law: Gen. Butler stated
that under existing circumstances he
should consider the slaves contraband
goods, and hold them accordingly: He
had, in fact, put them at work. So the
Colonel was discounted.

The recognition of the cotton States as
a belligerent power by Lord John Russell
suggests dangerous prccedent-a prcce-
dent which Great Britain never acted up
on but in case Of Greece, and not in Greece
until that country had virtually become
stronger than its opposer-Turkey. Lord
Palmcrston was urged to recognize Hun
gary, but he refused. Had he considered
her belligerent in the war with Austria he
must of necessity have recognized her in.
dependence. Mr.. Canning recognized
most of the southern States Of South
America, but not until Spain had shown
her utter inability to restore tue sover-
eighty. If the cotton States are entitled
to be considered belligerent, we are bound
to recognize them as free State, for the
law of nations knows nothing of any gov
ernment that is not bona .tide established.
The independence Of the Secessionists is
not established. The South is at this mo-
ment in state of incipient rebellion. 1t
has given no proof of its ability to accom-
plish or sustain independence. On the
contrary, the State with which we arc in
friendly intercourse is now in arms for
the purpose of putting down the rebellion,
and the presumption greatly is that it will
succeed. * \ Lord John RusselPs

Yet Why muse
Upon the past with sorrow? Though the year
Has gone to blend with the mysterious tide
OF old Eternity, and borne along
Upon lts heaving breast thousand wrecks
VI glory and beauty, yet Why mourn
That such is destiny? Another year
Succeede,h 10 the past in their bright round
The seasons come and 60; the same blue arch
That hath hung o'cr US, will hang o'er us yet =;
The same poor stars have loved to watch,
With blossom still at twilights gentle hour
Like lilies on the tomb Of Day; and still
Man will remain, to dream as he had dreamed,
And mark the earth with passion. Love will
Spring from the lone tomb of old affections: Hope
And Joy, aud great Ambition will rise up
AS they have risen, and their deeds will be
Brighter than those engraved on the scroll
OF parted centuries. Even now the sea
OF coming years, beneath whose mighty waves
Life's great events are hssviag into birth,
ls tossing to and fro as if tho winds
OF Heaven were prisoned in its soundless depths
And struggling to be free.
!. Weep not that time
Is passing on; it will ere long reveal
brighter era to the Nations. Hark!
Along the wales and mountains Of the earth
There is deep portentous murmering, .
Like the swift rush Of subterranean streams
o. like the mingled sounds Of earth and air,
When the fierce Tempest with sonorous wing,
Heaves his deep folds upon the rushing winds,
And hurrics onward with his night Of clouds
Against the eternal mountains. 'Tis the voice
OF infant Freedom and her stirring call
Is heard and answered in q thousand tones,
From every hilltop Of her western homes
And 10! it breaks across old Oceans food,
Al Freedom! Freedom' is the answering shout
Of nations starting from the spell Of years.
The edsy-spring-see, tis bright 'ng in the heav'ns
The watchmen of the night have caught the sign
From tower to tower the signal fires flash free
And the deep watch-wsrd, like the rush Of seas
That hcralds the volcanoes bursting fame,
Is sounding O 'er the earth. Bright years of hope
And life are on the wing. Yon glorious bow
OF Freedom, bending by the hand Of God,
Is spanning Times dark surges. Its high arch,
A type of Love and Mercy on the cloud,
Tells that the many storms Of human life
Will pass in silence, and the sinking waves,
Gathering the forms of glory and of peace,
Reflect the urdim' ed brightness Of the Heavens.
