His spies report to him that Gen. Lane Is at

taken up on the 26th inst. Col. Clarkson, COM
inanding the rear of the rebel army, left Green

The rebels are poorly clad and poorly fed,
and evince a disposition to disband and seek
their homes. T sfFt

the avowed purpose Of driving them out.

The EDrNBURGH REvIEw.- From Leonard
Scott q Co., the Alnefioan publishers Of Black
iOOOd's Magasine and the British Quartelies
we have received the October number of the
Edinburgh ReDisD. It contains eleven articles
the most interesting of which are those on the
Dsunion Of America, Lord Maoaulay's Hlatory,
Layergne on the Agriculture Of France, the
Story Of Burnt Njab, Thierss Revolution Of
the Hundred Days, Mrs. Browning's Poetry,
and DR.. Hessey's hampton Lecture on the Ori-
gin, History and Present Obligation of Sunday.
This last Is an admirable and exhaustive arti-
Gle.
The article on "The Disunion Of America"
has OF course peculiar interest at this time
for readers on this eide Of the Atlantic. II Is
written with ability, and is said to be the pro-
duction Of Sir G. G. Lewis, one Of Queen Vic
toria's Cabinet Ministers. He is regarded as
echoing in this article the opinions Of the Eng
lish Premier, Lord Palmerston. Be that as it
may, the main point the writer makes is that
the North cannot "maintain its connection with
the South by force of arms"

1902 to defend the Wing party in England and

ANNIVERSARY OF ST. FRANCIS XAVIER This
day, Dec. 3, is the three hundred and tenth an
niversary of the death of St. Francis Xavier,
the Apostle of the Indies. He was one of the
most remarkable men of his time. He was
descended from one of the noble families of
Spain. He graduated at the University of Paris,
and atterward filed, with distinction, the chair
of philosophy in that same institution He was
a man full of ambition, and hoped that his
name, as a scholar, would some day be resound-
ed throughout the world. He was one of the
first disciples of Loyola. The charity of Xavier
was unbounded. When travelling, he always
lodged at an hospital, if there happened to be
one where he was. He devoted himself TO the
sick, and neglected to perform no Office for
them, no matter how disagreeable to his natur-
al feelings. Having become priest, his great,
est desire was to go to the east, as missionary.
He departed on his. journey from one of the
ports Of Portugal, and, after thirteen months,
landed in India, Japan, and the numerous ISL
ands contiguous to India. Having been sue
cessful in these places, he purposed to go to
China, and thither he went though he never
reached his destination, for he died on the ISL
and of Sancien,a few miles from the mainland.
He had been but ten years in the east, though
in that time he baptized three hundred thousand
souls.

26th ult. contain scattered accounts Of the
Plckens affair
The bombardment commenced on the 2lst,
and continued with occasional intermissions
night and day till the evening of the 24th,
when Col Brown ceased firing. The rebels did
not respond until after Fort PIckeBs opened
fire. The FIRE Of the Fort and the batteries out
side on Santa Rosa Island was directed against
Fort MeRae and other rebel batteries, the rebel
steamers Times and Nelms, and the Navy
Yard while the Federal vessels engaged Fort
McRae
The rebels admit the loss of sixteen killed
and wounded Considerable damage was done
to Fort McRae, including the oaving in of the
powder magazine, and the partial destruction of
the Navy Yard at Warrington and a rebel train
hauling provisions TO the rebel army The reb-
els seemed to act strictly on he defensive.
The st ries about the disabling of the Colo

left Cincinnati for Louisville, on the Jacob
Strader. Saturday noon few of the men who
had apparently been indulging too freely in
lager, insisted on leaving the boat and visiting
their friends up town. Col. McCook ordered
the stragglers back to the boat. Several re-
monstrated, when the Colonel, being mounted,
fourished his sword pretty freely, giving several
Of the obstreporous men .whack or two over
the head and shoulders with the back Of
the blade of HE sword. The majority of the
men were orderly and quiet. Several Of the
boys, however, during the absence of the Col
onel, refused to permit the iremen to build fire
in the furnaces of the boat, declaring they must
be paid of before they would permit steam to
be raised, or the boat to depart They finally
left, in excellent spirits, and having been paid
off, were AZ happy as larks. ~

New YoRK, Dec. "A letter from Curacao
dated Nov. 9Th, to the Herald, says the u s.
war steamer Iroquois arrived of this port from
Laguyra yesterday morning, with the intention
of entering, but her commander was inform ed
by the government authorities that his vessel
could enter, but would not be allowed to stay
over forty.eight hours, unless in case OF dis
tress. The commanders reply was that his
vessel should not enter the harbor on any such
conditions, and Immediately bore away, steer
ing westward.
Most probably this will prove an affair to be
investigated by the United States government.
