The observer Of public men must be
stricken, more now, than at any period Of
the past, by the inconsistencies Of those
who seek to lll large space in the pub
lie eye. The destruction Of the old Wing
party, turned alrift upon the sea Of pOlit-
icaI opinion, hundreds Of talented men,
who, having lost their anchorage, have
since been floating here and there, &C.
cording to the currents Of popular fancy,
hunting for the port in which they could
most advantageously moor their political
shallOps. One Of the NEST conspicuous
of these wanderers from the old Wing
ark is the Hon. Edward Bates, Of Nilsson
ri. The rcckleSsncss Of this class Of men
in their choice OF harbOrs where they can
comfortably repose-their disregard Of all
stable principles which should guide every
man in shaping his course DER the ocean
Of political events, is nowhere better illus
trated than in the case of Mr.. Bates.
In st. Louis, Missouri, on the 10th OF
August, 1856, he addressed public meet.

Private despatch. We have spent eight
hours questioning returned soldiers. Our

Probably not three hundred are killed, perhaps
not two hundred. For example, the second
Connecticut regiment reported badly cut up,
lost but half dozen. The New Haven Greys
all returned unframed yet this regiment was
exposed to frequent vollies OF cannon and
musketry. Again, two hundred fire Zouaves
were reported surrounded in the road and an
initiated by the black horse cavalry on the
contrary they cut down and destroyed the
cavalry, with little loss to themselves. The
seventy first regiment suffered little, and SO Of
Others Few of the balls fired by the rebels
took effect on the contrary, al instances de-
tailed by our men show that the enemy suf-
fered severely. Three fire Zouaves, scouting
in advance, killed twenty.six rebels. The
New York seVenty-irst came upon rfied
gum and lost ei !, Int men, but killed the whole
eighteen rebels, who were secreted.
