the advance of our army in Kentucky
under General Buell.. The advance, out
OF which so much has been made. amounts
TO next to nothing. The distance advanced
Is about eighteen miles, but the position
is quite as safe for the loyal troops and no
more annoying to the rebels than that oc-
cupied BY General Sherman before the
advance, Tor all that we can discover, to
the contrary

A prominent and influential citizen of

that portion Of Virginia is safe for the

The rumors Of messenger arriving

The sick list Of our Battalion has new

measles have been under treatment,
caught, without doubt, from the Indiana
troops, as the first case was Of one of our
soldiers detached as body guard to Gen.
Davis, whose entire brigade is from Indi
ana. Another cause of sickness, was i'm
pure water at Syracuse, where we were
encamped two weeks upon an open pral-
RE, exposed to the bleak November
winds.
That Paymaster, who is reported to have
been in search of us for the last few days,
has reached Syracuse, and we will, no
doubt, be paid soon, much to the relief Of
the soldiers and their friends in Iowa.

Afternoon Report.
THE CABINET FIRM.
[ilerald's Dispatch.]
Washington, Dec. II


The President has received no official
information from England relative 10 the
Mason and Slidell affair. The Cabinet
has been in session for several hours to.
day, during which our difficulty with
England was discussed with great calmness
and hrmncss. Whatever the demands
from England may be land the English
newspaper buster is not taken as any true
indication Of the intention of that Gov
ernment4, cur Government has resolved
that Mason and Slidell shall never be Civ
en- up. This may be relied upon as n
fixed fact. The impression is that Eng
land would make demand for the release
of the rebels seized, but that a lengthy
correspondence will settle the matter with
out war.

War OF slavery and De1pOlism
Against Freed Om.


War OF slavery and Despotisn,
Against Freedom.
The news from Enaland is sufficiently
warilke to cause serious apprehensions Of
approaching hostilities And look back
over the course Of events il not at all cal
culsted to dispel the impression, Till
within few months, we had traitors rep
resenting the Government at half the
Courts of Europe, and traitor emissaries
were rife in England, as well ms in France
and Spain. These Governments under
stood the purposes and the policy of the
slaveholding traitors before we knew them
in the Northern STATES And they got
their views of the grievances of the South
from southerners who shaped them in such
way rs would furnish the strongest ap-
peal to the interests, the. policy and the
prcjudices of those great Kingdoms.
Ii was southern traitors and monarch
lists that Influenced those Powers to take
an attitude Of protested neutrality be-
tween the United States Government and
her rebel citizens, and thereby to place
an ambitious band of traitors upon an
equality with the United States, with
whom they had treaties of commerce and
peace for generations past. II was slave
holding traitors who stimulated those gov
ernments into their expedition against
Mexico. 1t was slaveholding traitors who
put 1t into Louis Napoleon's head to egg
on Spain against Mexico, and England
against the United States. lit was slave.
holding monarchists who opened to him
the policy Of finding employment for
Spain in Mexico, and Great Britain in the
United States, and thus leave him free to
extend his empire on the Rhine. Aud if
IN the iong-run conquests are made by
Spain and England in Mexico and the
United States, France will share in the
trpartte division. Those three monar-
chies would delight to re.ensct the parti
ton Of Poland on this western continent
an precisely the same spirit which insti,
gated that hellish plot against liberty and
Tor the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of despotism.
lhe monarchists Ut Europe are more
than dreaming Of such drama TO be en-
acted or this e3ntinent they are plotting
It, and in et!e secret chambers of desnot-
ism III Europe, they are even now mark
ing the boundaries Of the CONTEMPLATED
t1paltlte division which assigns the
Northern States with Canada as a mon.
archlal dependency of Great Britain the
southern States 10 some royal scion Of
France, and Mexico TO Spanish ROYALTY.
To this end, the conservative monarch,sts
ana the Ignorant masses Of England are
bhndly tending under the skillful mani.
puiations OF the polite Emperor Of France.
And now it depends upon the great
middle class Of England whether the.
world shall be involved in war inaurur.

accomplishment of such ends OF dcspot.

their action are pretty evenly balanced !,
