The European dispatches, il is under
stood, show an improved disposition In
England.
From France, the Moniteur's article
which afforded so much joy 10 the seces.
sionists, has been explained away to the
evident satisfaction Of Secretary Seward
The most hearty and sincere expressions Of
sympathy with the United States, in the
present contest are furnished 10 this Gov.
ernmenL
No oprivateers will be permitted 10 enter
foreign ports.
From these reports there is rejoicing IN
official quarters that secession is dead and
buried in Europe.
1t is certain that after the discharge Of
the three months troops, thsre win still be
en- available force of l8S, ,00O, which added
to the regular army, win amount to ESQ.,
900 officers and men.
The probable total amount required forthe
army, added to the offer made for the year
ending with June, 1860, for the force now
in the field, OF which has been accepted and
will be in the service within the next twenty
days, is about ls5, 600 dollars. The
estimate for the Navy IS also large.
Gen. Patterson has achieved another bril-
liant and important success. Information
was received from Aartinsburg yesterday
that he entered and passed through that
place in the morning in hot pursuit of the
enemy. The army was welcomed with
enthusiasm by the mass Of the people who
were gratihed by the protection promised
and now given by the government. Thus
the All was gIoriously celebrated in Mar
tinsburgh
The secession force which Gen. Patterson
scattered on the I'd, when be- crossed the
river, lost sixty killed Snd many wounded.

to distance of seven or eight miles, where
they have been reinforced.

Horrible Reign Of Terror in Memphis.

Horrible Reign Of Terror In Memphis.
A young man who has reached Cairo after
a periIous fight nom Memphis, where he
was imprisoned and daily expected to be
hung for the crime of being NOrtherner,
tells the following, among other incidents;
About one week after bis confinement the
Recorder Of the city, /. n. Dickinson, sent
for him, for the purpose, as be stated, 'of
expressing his profound regret that it was
not in his power TO hang him." And from
bis sea. in court be denounced him as "a
damned sbo,itionist, who should not be sllow-
cd to live an hour Had the power, said the
learned jurist al would cut your ears of
and nail you to the dOorof my court room,
and probably shall have the pleasure yet"
This Is q man who has just been elected jus
tiee Of tie fifth civil district Of Memphis, one
ofthe most important offices in the city.
He describes some of the outrages inflicted
on Unionists in the following words:
These indignities were Of daily occurrences,
and to some they went farther, and INDUCED
every species Of cruelty-shsving the heads
and whipping being regarded as a slight
punishment BY any one who desired to re-
move North Nor is this all. In more than
fifty instances during my confinement, men
were taken before the Vigilance Committee,
and no one knows what Became Of them.
They never came from that building alive;
and there are now more than that number
confined there of whom their friends will
never hear again. There acts are all secret
and there is no concsrn felt for men charged
with being tinctured with abolitionismi 50
that no one cares; and thus they 60 on in
their wholesale nardering with impunity.

Some Of its friends are making an effort
to provide, By general subscription, for the
~gallant Ohio Seventh 8 set Of regulation
color" We highly spprOvs the project,
and TO forward il We propose to tell our
readers in few words what Regulation
regimental colors" are, and 10 add some
suggestions ss 70 the particular matter pro
posed.
The Q. 8. Army Regulations require that
the oolors Of q regiment shall be, lst The
Stars and Stripes, the fsg to be six feet six
inches long and six feet wide, with the
name Of the regiment embroidered on the
center stripe "a. A Gag Of blue, Of the
same size IS the other, with the arms of
the United States embroidered on the CEN
ter, with the name Of the regiment on 3
scroll underneath the eagle. This Gag is
> TO be decorated with prescribed fringe and
cord and tsssels. The Gag slaves are to be
4ine feet ten inches long.
The expense Of such cOiOFs, we'll got up,
viii be Sl40. sl. l--
A word respecting their uses. There is
, no other one thing which so stimulates the
pride Of G regiment OF rouses its highest
soldierly qualities as does its flag. With
The oOiors are linked associations Of home,
Of the cause, and Of glory. 70 maintain
the flag, especially if It has been the gift
Of those whom it respects or loves, good
regiment viii submit to any danger. And
when danger comes there is no other rally
ing point like that flag.
We approve, therefore, Of the proposition
i. 70 present set Of e0lors to the 9TH. The
regiment is well worthy Of the honor, and
the gift will be Of great moral use TO IL.
But TO be Of the highest value, the gift
should come from many rather than from
few hands, Every town represented In the
regiment should contribute toward it. and
the contribution should be made Of mites
b rather than Of large sums. The regiment
Will-Velue its colors proportionally more if
IL knows that they are q trit ute Of esteem
end love from q thousand friends rather
= than the gift Of q few. -
Let hslf-dims subscriptions, therefore,
make up the needed amount.

News, which county has one Of the finest
companies which vent out Of Ohio, in the

The Grafton correspondent Of the Gin
einnati Gazetts writes upOn the 2eth;
The rsbsls could not have selected q COM
mander more TO our liking. II there is q
rash, foolish thing, possible 70 be done,
Henry A. Wise viii do It. To entire ignor-
anoe Of military matters, he adds the most
sublime confidence in his own abilities, and
foolhardy reeklessnsss which cOnOeiv,s
personal oourdgeto be all that is necessary
for conducting a successful eampaign. He
viii soon ohAfe at the delay now marking
our movements, and In his impstienee will
step fairly into The tolls arranged for him;
such, at least, is the suppOsitiOn. If he
does not, he viii manifest very little re-
speci, indeed, for the speculations Of war
theorists.
Meantime, we all wait and watch the
developments Of the game. A very heavy
force Is ct Clarkshurg, with cavalry, artil-
lery, and regulars, thoroughly drilled in
the bayonst exercise. There can be little
doubt that that means an attack in the rear.
Buckhannon, after all, is not in the posses
sion Of the rebels, buJ Of McCook's German
Regiment and the newly arrived Seventh
Ohio. That Is interpreted ss a flank
movement And 9 strong column is con-
eenlrsted at Philippi, Of which Gen. Morris
takes the command. From that point it
would seem that forward movement must
soon begin.
For the rebels there are but two courses,
10 fight or to retreat. Il is suspected
that if they wait much longer their last
outlet will be closed up, and then there is
no chance for another foot-race, nor for
anything indeed, but fighting against over
EhelmiDg numbers, unless they make q
virtue Of necessity and lay down their
arms.
So the game is supposed to stand now.
What new plots and oounteFplots are to be
developed as the game progresses, 1t re-
mains to see.
