if there be any they must mask their treason and
Weld an apparent allegiance to the Government ard

For the sake Of American humanity and civilization
let us hope that their cupidiy may be frustrated and
that this Administration may be saved the disgrace and
stigma which has been attached to proceeding ones, Of
suffering these harpies to iasten their vuure claws
upon the treasury. Let us watch such men and brand
them as they deserve. they make their bed OF horns

been heard the measured tread of armed men, the roll
ofthe drum, aud mosic from the bands. The New

and made appropriate remarks when hymn

fate Of the contest when committed TO such hands, Is
not doubtful or uncertain.
About noon the Fire Zouaves formed in line in the
park fronting the Capitol, and were visited by the
President and Mr.. Seward. TIE "boys' all gathered
