were present for the OCCASION, forming bril-
liant military galaxy The field Was not suR-
ciently large to admit Of all the eyol1tiona
proposed, but sufficient we're performed to
prove the high efficiency Of the brigade. Tic
regiments reviewed were the Ninth New York,
Twenty ninth Pennsylvania, Third Wisconsin,
and Twenty seventh Indiana
A review Of the Third Brigade {Gen- VII

present in this brigade are the Forty-si1th

it Is really the 22d chapter Of Gen JouEini's

One Of the objects Great Britain has in
view in picking quarrel and going to war
with this country, is to place the loyal
States between two foreign and hostile pow
ers, and to reduce the territorial limits of
this Republic to d long, narrow strip, re-
senlbling somewhat the shape Of at. Hour
glass, with British Canada for Northern,
and Sceessia under British protcctorate, for
a Southern boundary. The seeded States
would owe their independence to British
Intervention and assistance, and their fi1-
ture existence to British alliance, which
in effect would be a protectorate. In re-
turn for such protection, England would
stipulate for monopoly Of their trade
buying their cotton and paying for it
in manufactures. The Government
Of Jeffdom would be a military despotism,
resting On slaves for an industrial class A
titled nobility, preceded by restricted suf
fragc, would be next in order. 4 Scion ot
the British royal family would probably be
imported to rule oTer Secessia, and shed
luster upon the new aristocracy.
