Hamilton Fish and Bishop Am

Hamilton Fish and Bishop Ames re-
turned to Washington on Saturday, and
made report to the Government of their
mission to relieve Union prisoners in the
South. They repaired to Fortress Monroe
and made known their commission to the
Confederate authorities at Norfolk by
whom the matter was referred to Rich
mond. a reply came refusing the com
missioners admission to the Confederate
Territory, but expressing readiness to ne
gotiate for the general exchange OF Prls-
oners. Our Commissioners opened nego-
tiation which resulted in perfect success.
An equal exchange was agreed on, but the
Confederates had 800 more prisoners than
we; with commendable m~agnaninity they
proposed to release those also on condition
that our Government would agree to re-
lease 300 of their men that may next faIi

FORT DONALDSON TAKEN
5000 Prisoners 10000 Killed
and Wounded

The most terrific battle ever fought ca
the American Continent was the TT. Don
olson contest, which terminated glorious
Northern arms on Sunday list, b.
the surrender Of Tie Fort with l5,G00
prisoners, including Generals johnson,
Pillow and Buckner.
Further official advices from Fort DON
olson say General Floyd escaped during
night, and the rebels in the Fort denounc-
ed him as a black hearted traitor and a
coward.
The enemy ere known Il have had So
900 troops. l5,0O0of whom are our prison
ers, 5000 escaped. and the balance are re-
ported killed, wounded, or otherwise dis
Gbled.
Our loss is not stated, but the slaughter
in our ranks IS mentioned as terrible
severe.
The Very Latest.
The following was received Just as We
were closing III paper, Tuesday noon
being further details of the capture Of
Fort Donelson. The surrender was IN
conditional. The prisoners number I5.-
600, including the rebels who fed from
Fort Henry, and Generals Johnston.
Buckner md Bushrod. Pillow and Floyd
stole away with their brigades from Buck
ner by boats Saturday night, as well as
from our forces. and it would seem stole
some two hundred loyal prisonersinto the
bargain. Floyd's fort is stealing. Floyd
and Pillow are charged with 6e-ertion by
the rebels.
The rebels lost 5000 horses, 4S field
pieces, IL heavy guns, 10000 stand Of
arms, and a large quantity Of commissary
stores. Their loss is killed and wounded
probably less than ours, rs they founght
behind entertainments. The works of
the fort extended some five miles on the
outside.
Our loss is heavy, the latest report 300
GOO wounded, and 100 missing
Three Illinois Colonies killed and three
wounded. Our troops all stood up to the
hard struggle ike veterans, being under
arms night and day, from wednesday to
Sunday, withouttents, half the time with
out provisions. and q portion of the time
in heavy rain and snow.

Senatorial Fxpulsions.

The only instance in which a United
States Senator has ever been expelled
when present, except Bright, was in 1908.
when John Smith. of Ohio, was expelled
for a supposed connection with Burr's
treason.-Ezcharge.
The foregoing is not exactly correct
Senator Smith escaped expulsion by one
vote, the vote on the resolution for his
expulsion standing, yeas l9, nays 10, lack
ing one Of two-thirds in its favor. But
the expression was SO. strongly against Mr..
Smith that he resigned his seat. This
transaction occurred during the Admins
tration of Thomas Jefferson, second term;
and for the benefit of those par excellent
Democrats who seem to feel so badly over
the expulsion of Bright, we viii state, on
the strength of historical record, that the
great apostle of American Democracy, Mr..
Jefferson, strongly urged the expulsiono of
Smith. There is another fact that they
may draw all the consolation from they
an, which we give in the language Of the
biOsrapher Randall, in his Life of Jefer-
son, wherein he y The vote on the
expulsion of Smith does not appear TO
,"haye been strictly a party division
though most of the Republicans voted
'for, and most of the Federalists voted
against ii"
Men change; principles are eternal"
The case of Bright is but a repetition OF
the contest between the rule or ruin
policy of a proud Southern aristocraey
and free, plain, loyal Repubicanism
which was decided in 1907, in favor Of the
J~effersonian Republicans, and which will,
no doubt, similarly terminate in the pres
emit vastly more serious and extended cor
hict. Aaron Burr was as much Of a Sc
ccssionist as JEFF Davis, and Jefferson had
no more respect for Burr than Lincoln
has fol-. Davis. which, we opine, SIS not
worth Mentioning"
All true Democrats stand now where
jefferson stood in lS07-S-opposed to dis
union, secession and treason, and out-spo-
ken against all sympathizers, aiders and
abettors of such internal doctrines. The
man who imagines he can attain the high
standard Of Jeffersonian Republicanism
BY swallowing all the nestrums labelled
"Demoeraey," and now Ayended by the
semi-eecesSionists of hese Northern lati-
tudes, might as well attempt to grow fat
bv tho esef wind
That kind of Democracy which apollo
gises for Jesse D. Bright, wouldhaye sym
pathized with John Smith, the ~co-conspi-
T .tor of Aaron Burr. And Bright is as
much more deserving of censure for his
~connivance with rebels, than was Smith,
as the extent and proportions of the pres
ent conspiracy against the Union exceeds
the scheme of Barr-which is more than
q hundred fold.

In noticing the arrest of B~rigadier Gen
eral Stone and his transfer to Fort Lafa-
yette, Col, Forney writes from Washing
ton to the Philadelphia Press, that it was
not unexpected to those who had known
his strong Secession proclivities, His con-
duct in the battle at Balls Bluff, which
sesulted in the massacre of the gallant
Baker and his heroic band, and the man
ner in which he attempted to browbeat
Senator Sumner for criticising his military
policy in the Senate, would have led to

Our neighbors of the 4Tth Indiana, also

that the service had more of their stamp.
They are from Trumbull County, Ohio
Under their strict and thorough system of
drill and instructions, the 47th Indiana
and 9th Kentucky are fast attaining a re-
markable degree of efficiency. The Ohio
and Indiana troops treat US with the ut
most respect and consideration. They
seem proud of the 10th Kentuck,' as
they term US, and expect of US great
things. Kentucky valor is historic
They'll not be disappointed. Our men
