Rev. I. STARR KINGS LEcTuRE.-We had
the pleasure oflistening to the Rev. T. Starr
King on Friday evening of last week on the
subject CT - the new nation to issue from the
war; The lecture was entertaining, as all
who have listened to Mr.. King would ex-
pect but we do not think it equal to his for
smer lectures delivered here. Perhaps a
rique caused by the omission to mention Nc
Cielian's name in his aliusion to the heroes
of the war, rendered as unfair critics in this
instance. 1t seemed very much like enact
ing the play of Hamlet with the part Of
that important parsonage left out.

ESCAPE OF CoNvIcrs.-From dispatch 10
the Union we learn that on Tuesday last at
half past one o'clock, one hundred and fifty
convicts made their escape from tbs State
Prison, carrying with them Lieut.. Governor
Chellis. II is said they were fred upon by
the guard, ana some thirty killed. The con-
victs seized two cannon and threw them in
the bay. All the soldiers that could be
spared from around San Francisco had gone
in pursuit.
From later dispatah we learn that Lieut..
Gov. Chellis was released by the convicts
four miles from the prison, they being unable
to get him ovc:' high fence, and that the
convicts, with the exception of twenty-eight,
were captared. Ten of the nGFber missing
are supposed to have been killed.

.Don't Give up the Ship

Last week there was a small installment
of news from the East that was unfavorable
to the patriot arms 1t really amounted to
very little; a raid OF a guerrilla band, which
alarmed men and women of delicate nerves
in the vicinity, and rebel csHard that Baton
Rouge was taken, coming from men who
could not be believed under OATH This last
was entitled to no credit, and its subsequent
contradiction by the same authority neither
adds to nor takes anything from its proba-
bility.
But this slight evidence of an interruption
to the success Of the good cause, had such an
effect on some of the Union men that they
seemed actually cast down. For ourselves,
we expect to hear occasionally just such re-
ports as these We look for slight reyerses.
sometimes even checks TO the progress Of the
Union cause but this will not cause us to
entertain 4 doubt as to the fna result. We
expect to see an occasional lighting up of
the countenances Of the secessionists among
us, to see the small fry gather around their
oracles to learn the news and get their latest
lesson, to hear "peace" men misrepresen(
the reports Of the telegraph. and to see them
- bob around with the news that "McClel-
lan's army has been cut all to pieces We
dent begrudge them such little crumbs Of
comfort. They need them. fheir hungry
souls would perish if it were not for the re-
port of a rebel victory occasionally. Besides,
the Union cause needs that there should be
some reverses in order to show who is for the
Union and who against It. Adversely tries
the friends of nations as we'll as individuals,
and we want to mark those who, when
weighed in the balance, are found want
ing in the hour Of the nations trial.

A man entered the residence Of Col. T. \.
Bee, yesterday, about 10 A. ". Selling an
axe that was laying near the door, he drove
Mrs. Bee out, when she escaped to the house
of Mr. Swartz. Luckily Mr.. Bee was re-
turning from town, and on entering the
house was met at an inner door by the mad
man, who was armed with a large iron pes
tie, used for crushing quartz, and who rushed
upon him. exclaiming, 81 have come tc muir

aimed at him, with heavy cane, receiving
only slight out on the side of his face. Then
commenced an encounter for dear life against
the desperate strength of madman, For
twenty minutes the unequal combat went on,
demolishing, in ths struggle, fine centre
table, China and Japan keepsakes, two glass
doors, and in fact making a general wreck OF
furniture. Three times Mr.. Bee knocked the
lunatic down, and caoh time failed in holding
him in that position. Although powerful
