thinned ranks, bronzed faces and wearied

seen arduous service. Passing along thus

showed that they telt their late gallant
struggle unappreciated, and themselves as
much neglected as if they had not just
left half their number upon the battle
field. In this mood, they were tramping
modify along till they reached the front
of the Planters House, when, glancing
up, something caught their attention, and
in an instant all was changed-the look
OF discomfort vanished--there was a dead
silence for moment, and then loud over
the roar Of city life, broke cheer after

When the Confederate Privateer Nash

the officers and crew of the American
merchant vessel in irons as prisoners, and
reported that they had oyerhauled and
burned the Harvey Birch, which bore the
flag of the Stars and Stripes, the English
populace hailed the Rebel victors with
yells Of delighted triumph And the
brutal Captain Of the pirate ship was made

years ago, in the South, for striking down

THE ESCAPE or THE SUMTER.
New York. Dec Ia.

The Bermuda Royal Gazette Of the ID
inst. has the following relative 10 the es-
cape of the Sumter, on the morning Of the
10Th nltimo:
The Iroqnois astonished the St Thomas
folks by dropping into the harbor and
reporting that or dark and squally night
the Sumter had slipped through the fin
gers of the Dacotah and lroquois and
gone no one knew whittier. The escape
is variously accounted for. According
to one account French war vessel came
out of ST. Thomas during the night, and
the Iroquois gave chase and when day
light discovered the mistake. but mean
while the Sumter had stolen away, and
neither the Dacotah or lrequois could
give account of her.

PRICES PROGRAMMES.

The St. Louis Republican says that it

templating the passage of the Usage, ex-
pecting to move forward toward the Mis-
souri, river He has large number of
cannon, and his men are comfortably

and Price has declared his intention of
wintering on the Missouri river, and his
relatives in central Missouri are conf
IDENTITY expecting him sooner or later. In
view of Prices proclamation for the con-
fscation Of $500, 1000, 900 worth of the
property of Union men for t benefit of
the rebels, the Union men of Central Mis-
souri, are in great trepidation. The Re-
publican insists that
We should not deceive ourselves. The
rebel element of the country is in motion.
Ii is emboldeued, confident, and overbear-
ing. 1t laughs at proclamations, seeing
that they are seldom enforced. Is it not

and punishment of a dozen such men. in
each of the counties along the river, and
IN the centre of the State, would effect
more real good than brigade of troops.
Why has not that been done long ago?
Fremont and every other sensible man in
Missouri understood the matter very well
and had his policy been enforced to the let
ter in Missouri, there would have been no
such condition Of things as now devas-
tates that State and threatens the people
with desolating and enduring internal
strife.
Three months or more ago the wealthy
slaveholding secessionists of St. Louis and
throughout the State were boldly egying
on the military ragamufhps in their re-
crniting and maraudng expeditions. They
continued To provide them with ammuni-
ton, provisions. and every aid and COM
tort required They are still open seces-
slonlsts, but more cautious in their efforts
to promote the cause. Had such rascal
ly traitors been dealt with as their treason
deserved the rebellion in Missouri might
have been squelched long since. The
strong head which it is now making,
and the general destruction impending
over the Union men of the interior oil
Missouri is mainly attributable to the
wishy-washy inefhciency Of the aimless
expeditions, and the want of policy in
the conduct of military affairs in that
State.
If We could just have an end of pro
CARNATIONS and general orders, which new
er amount to anything, and are onl,
laughed at by the rebels, We might hop
that something would be done TO pu
down the rebellion. If our generals vii
cease writing and printing, and 60 +

people generally would have more hop
