The prisoners were very well treated, but
rather poorly fed, their food consisting Of
corn bread and fresh beef, with very small
allowance of salt. When they were first
taken to Memphis they had coffee once q
day; but before they left, their coffee was
cut off entirely. Provisions of every kind,
except corn, were scarce and very high. and
salt was worth nearly its weight in silver.
Most of the women and children have left
the city, and no business of any kind was
attended to. There are Union men still in
Memphis, but they dare not avow their
sentiments, yet there were some 80 bold as
to make themselves known to the prisoners.
The rebels are still strengthening their for.

boats, fatboats, batteaux, and so on, all
fitted to do good service. The destination
of this expedition has not, of course, been
communicated to the public.
The following is the resolution of Sen.

to the war:
Resolved, That the present war is for the
Union, according to the Constitution that its
object is to save the former and enforce the
latter; was so in the beginning, is now as car

measures extreme and radical descriptive in
themselves, involving in common fate as we'll
the loyal as disloyal, should not be resorted
to; and that in crushing treason, widespread
and hateful as it is, the government itself can
not prove traitor to organic law.

Death OF Prince Albert.

PRINCE ALBERT, husband Of the Queen
of England, died on the 18th inst of gastric
fever. He was born at Rosenau, August
rs, 1919, and was therefore forty.two years
of age at the time of his death. He was
the second son of ERNEST, duke of SAKE
Coburg Gotha, under whose personal SUI
perintendence he received an admirable
education. In July, 1888, he visited Eng
land, in company with LEOPOLD, King of
Belgium, and spent some time at the court
Of the youthful Queen VIcroRIA, and in
November, 1889, it was formally announced
to the privy council by the Queen that she
intended to form matrimonial alliance
with PRINCE ALBERT. .~
The marriage took place February 10th,
1910, when for the purpose OF rendering
him perfectly independent, he was endowed
by parliament with the muni6cent personal
allowance Of $l5O,0O0 year. Besides
which be was q field marshal, Knight Of
the Garter and other orders, colonel of the
fusileer guards, and held a number of other
lucrative and honorable appointments. His
union with the Queen was unusually happy,
and was blessed with insufficient number Of
offspring to keep the royal line unbroken
"uptil the crack of DOOM"
Being precluded by his position from in.
reference in politics, he devoted himself to

In 1855, rumors were current among the
opponents of the Government, that he
had held communications with some German
courts, prejudicial to British interests, but
the Ministers cleared up the trouble by an
explicit denial of these rumors, from their
places in Parliament. Since then he has had

Lord Lyons Ultimatum.

It has been stated that Lord Lyons
would not make any peremptory demand on
our Government for the release of Mason
and Slidell, until be had heard again from
home. Perhaps the reason of his reticence
may be found in the following from the
New York Evenimg Post:
We should not be surprised if it should turn
out that Mr.. Seward had already anticipated
the bellicOse outbreak which the affair Of the
Trent was likely to cause in England, and
sent to Mr.. Adams such explanations of it, at
the time of the occurrence, as will prevent
Lord Lyons from delivering any peremptory
message until he shall again hear from home.
At last such is our conjecture.
