1.c,dent OF tho Big Bethel Fight.

At the battle of Big Bethel, the Cap
tain of the Foxhoro' company gave Or
ders to his men, when they saw the flash
of the guns in the enemys battery, to
fall instantly on the ground, thai the
balls might pass over them. One of the
company. not hearing the order, re-
mained standing when the enemy fired,
and seeing his comrades all fail to the
ground, was heard to say to himself,
"My God! are they all killed! l guess
shall have to fight some. ."-Bos'on

ton, setting apart Thursday, the 2ath
inst, as day Of thanksgiving. 1t may
be thought that such proclamation is
rather out of place this year. Bat we
still have much for which to be thank.
full.
In our lately gathered harvests, and
the profusion Of all the natural boun-
ties Of Providence, we have been highly
f.yored. With Divine bene6cence He
has given US His rain and His sunshine as
if we were all his loving children. And
to Him we ought to return the only rec
ompense in our power-the Offering of
grateful hearts.
The war and discords which are car
rying desolation and mourning to the
homes of thousands, are but the ripening
fruits of the trees ice have planted
And if rightly considered, even for this
sore calamity, we ought to be likewise
thankful, The rain, and dew, and frost
and sunshine are all His gifts. And
these agencies, while they ripen the
corn, and paint the lilies, and scent the
rose, bring also into our fields the noxious
weeds, the annoying thistle, the poison
Gus nightshade. But notwithst anding
these, still for the rain, and dew, and
frost, and sunshine, We ought to be
thankful. They will start into growth,
the seed we plant. or suffer to exist in
our fields, and gardens, and the choking
of the good seed by the ranker growth
of worthless vegetation is revelation to
us-a lesson from which we should not
fail to profit.
In the great field of social life the
same law ever operates. The disord
crs of our country. have grown up from
their legitimate germs. By the side of
the beautiful tree IF liberty we have
suffered to grow deadly upas. Its
! seeds have been scattered far and wide,
until its ranking poison was about to
destroy all else. Our war is not an
evil to the country which ought to be
regretted 1t is but the evidence of the
existence of deeper seated evils which,
but for the war, might have ruined US
utterly. These evils, ultimatins them
selves by their natural growth into this
war, preach to us in a language not to
be misunderstood, that these evils must
be renlored We would not, without it,
look at the causes, silently operating
to our certain destruction. But now,
that the war is upon US, we cannot shut
our eyes to the cause which produced it.
And if there is virtue enough left in the
country, these causes will be removed
In this view, even the war may be made
subject of thankfulness!
And, by the way, if We don't stop
here, We shall be led to thank somebody
for things we have heretofore denounced,
and that wouiu. make US seem to be in
consistent. To be brief, we ought to be
thankful for all the treason, outrage,
fraud, crime, folly and humbug, which
has SO far characterized the conduct of
the war. and doubly thankful for any
additions which may yet be made to the
sickcning catalogue, as agencies needed
to arouse the latent manhood of the ma
tion to the necessary elevation of in
dignant virtue, which will insure the
sweeping of the whole brood into ever
lasting perdition.
Let US give thanks.

THE INDIAN DIFFICULTIES ON THE
ARKANSAS.

Mr.. E. H. Mosley called upon us yester.
day, and gave an account Of the difficulty
with the Osages that we published sometime
ago. Mr.. NJ. has just come from the Ar
kansas, where he has been staying the past
winter. 1t was reported that he and FIVE OF
his men were killed while attempting to
chastise the rascally Osages for their thiev
ing.
The Osages have been very bad during
the past winter. They killed two men
who were hunting, Messrs. SHAW and
Green of Burlington, last January, on CHM
erone river, and on every occasion have
shown their hostility to the whites. Four
Lodge, the head rascal of his tribe, says
the whites shall not hunt the coming sum-
mer on the Big Arkansas and vicinity. 1t
will be well enough for those who contem-
plate hunting, TO go in large parties. for I'm
less troops are sent against the tribe, the
whites will surely be robbed and murdered.
Mr.. Mosley was in Four Lodges camp
April 9th, and that Chief was inclined to
be hostile. That tribe has grown insolent
by their success, and will be impudent the
coming summer. This same Chief has
from thirty to eighty men, and says as soon
the settlers on Fall River.
The hunters have been very much an
noyed by them for long time past. They
robbed Mr.. Mosley's ranch three times. and
destroyed his wagon and tent which had
been temporarily left at the place of hunting

HOLD THE FoRTs.-At Union meeting
of Bedford county, Tenn. the following res
olution was adopted:
ResoEved, That while we concur in the
greatest moderation, forbearance and kind
ness of the Federal Government toward the
seeded States, believing shem to be the
victims of merciless conspirators and usurp-
ers, we at the same time deprecate the
abandonment or the surrender of any rights
that can be successfully and permanently
held against any odds. We think less than to
hold the forts that can be thus held, is to
strengthen rebels and to dishearten and
weaken patriots, and that more is not neces-
sary than TO give the people chance to ex-
pei their tyrants from power and place.

4 D1sUN1oN FLAG HAULED DOWN

Early yesterday morning, the steamboat
"Sam Gaty'' landed at our Levee, with
"Confederate" flag flying from her jack
staff. AS soon as the obnoxious banner
was noticed, crowd collected with the de-
termination to have it hauled down. While
they were bringing out "Old Kiekapoo" to
enforce their demand for its removal, it WAS
taken down. But this did not satisfy the
crowd. who regarded the display of dis
union emblem in Leayenwo:th as an insult
to the city. So they went on board the
Gaty, and insisted that the flag should be
given up. This was at once done, and the
''broad bars of the Confederacy" were car
ried off in triumph. Subsequently, an
American flag was procured, and the cap
tain of the Gaty hoisted it with his own
hands. thus atoning for the insult he had
offered to this community.
While the affair was in progress, the
Russell came to the wharf, but before she
was permitted to land, the people on shore
compelled her TO show her colors She dis
played the ''stal5 and stripes" and as the
s'banner of beauty and glory" went to the
head of the flagstaff, and foated proudly
to the breeze, the assembled crowd gave
vent to their delight in shouts and cheers.
These incidents were somewhat signii-
cant, as showing the sentiment of our citi-
zens. They desire to have peace in Kan
sas, and would do everything to avoid I'M
necessary disturbance growing out of the
excitement concerning National affairs
But the fact that Kansas is loyal State
must be distinctly understood. and the IN
ion proclivities of her people must be re-
cognized and respected. Otherwise it will
be impossible to preserve that order and
quiet which is so much to be desired
