TABLES TuRNED.-A few silly-pated wo-
men of Memphis, calling themselves ladies'.
have thought it "smart" to take a pattern
after their weak sisters in New Orleans by
offering insult TO federal officers on the streets.
An engineer on one Of the gunboats, while
walking through the city few evenings
since, passed group of women sitting in the
portico OF very respectable looking private
residence. As hc was passing, one Of the
women turned up her pretty nose in disgust,
and another put her handkerchief to her del
lcate nasal protubcrance. The appearance Of
these women would have forbidden any sus-
picIon that they were not ladies but their
actions betrayed them, The officer who is
noted for suayty under all circumstances,
suddenly stopped in his walk and confront.
ing the fair demoisclcs said, " Ladies', il was
not me, pom my word it was not - The
rcbc!lcsscs rctreated in great haste, and the
officer passed on.

By THE GOVERN.
OR OF MARYLAND.

On the 4th inst, Governor Bradford Of
Maryland, issued a proclamation in pursuance
Of the recent call of the President for an ad-
ditional force of three hundred thousand men,
from which we make the following extracts:
"Men of Maryland, look to YOU with
confidence to be among the foremost in re-
spending to this call There are reasons why
you should be. You are, as it were, the nat.
ural body guard of the Capital of the nation.
lf this diaholical rebellion ever makes another
forward movement, its first step will be up
on your soil. nyour very midst there turks
a comparatively small bat still influential,
plotting, determined, reasonable element,
watching tho first opportunity to pilot tho
rcbellious hosts into your midst, and to give
up to the despoilations of war your present
peaceful fircsides. Though such Il possibih-
ty may be remote, it behooves you to be
ready for all contingencies, aud prepared by
an ample and or~aniznd force for the omen
rebel and the secret traitor"
"The one great paramount object which
| the patriotic everywhere have in view, and
which with US in Maryland should, MS am
sure it does outweigh and nearly extinguish
all other considerations, is the restoration of
| the Cnien. Whilst amongst those profess
| ing the same object there may he found in
some places comparatively small class anx.
| iouS to combine with il other and ulterior
views of selfish and sinister character, we
have in our own State, fear. still mors
dangerous caSs--Secret synpathzers with
secession who, by the exaggerated mpor-
tannce they constantly seek to attach to these
| factious movements, and their affected fear
| OF these ultcror purposes, are, in fact, seek
| ing only by such means to undermine tile
| great cause we have at heart, and to paralyse
| the arm we are prepared to raise in its De-
tensc. Against these insidieus attempts let
us be on our guard let us bear in mind that
the great impending peril, by which all other
pcrIls are cclpscd, is this rebellion, that il is
to be put down; put down by force of arms,
at whatever cost and regardless of all other
considerations. That once subdued, the M.
ton thereby rescued, and the Union restored.
we need have no fears for its future preserva,
ton, or the renovated vigor of our Constitu.
ton. The mighty masses of our population
having themselves achieved this success, and
mindful OF the past, will be sure to provide
for our security in the future, whilst the very
last whose influence need be feared in this
national regeneration, will be the sectional
agItator and dcmagoguc, who viii serve here.
after only as Il beacon to warn us from the
breakers where we have been so nearly
wrecked"

Bright leaves may scatter,
Sports of the wind;
But stands to the winter
The great tree behind.
Frost shall not wither it;
Storms cannot bend;
Roots firmly clasping
The Rock at the end.

Clear shine the stars thro'
The riffs of the slroud.
There our repose shall be;
Thither we tend
Spite of our waverings,

What the People Paw For

According to last accounts, General and
Senator Jim lane was on his way to the
mines of Oregon with drove of cattle on
which he would make. fifty thousand dollars.
This is the finale of his running to and from
Washington westward promising ii, speeches
and kilograms to raise thousands of negro and
other troops! His pay ex-senator and General,
we presume, still goes on and We couple him
with Major General Cassihs M: Clay, who,
while his own State, Kentucky, is invaded by
the rebels, flies from thence to stump the
State of New York for Wadswotth. The pay,
rations and travelling expenses of this brace of
heroes must be about one thousand dollars
per month. With this basis for calculation
taxpayers can figure up the true value of
their services to the nation, and find duo
tent If they can.

Retaliation,

Jefferson Davis has instructed the Con
federatc comm ,nder in the Missouri Depart
mcnt to demand the surrender, by the fedora
authorities, of Gen, Mcneil, and in case his
demand is refused, to hang tA: frst len fed
eroI officers N1t tuN into his h1nds. This is
dorc to rctaliate for the execution OF ten citi,
zcns of Marion County, Missouri, by Gen.
Mcneil
A Union man Of that county disappeared
from his home, and his friends were unable to
obtain any clue to his whereabouts. There
upon Gen. Mcneil caused the arrest of ten
secessioEists of the same county, and an
nounced that if the missing man was not pro
duced within given time the ten prisoners
would be shot. The time expired without
bringing the return of the missing man. Gen.
Mcneil proceeded 10 carry ..s threat.
The ten citizens were taken out to a vacant
lot placed on their knees beside their cofiins,
platoon CT soldiers drawn up in front, and
the terrible tragedy enacted. To add to the
horror of the scene, only four or five of the
victims were killed at the first fire. The
officers rushed forward and shot the balance
with their rovolvers. '. rs
Yet it was not known at the time, nor has
it been certainly. ascertainot to this day.
whether the missing man is dead or living.
If the ten citizens killed by Mcneil had been
in the service of the rebel Confederacy, the
case might have been dlfferent.-As lit is,
they were unarmed citizens Of a State which
is now, as it always has been, an ally and
member of the United States.-Cdrbon Demo

Since the above was written we see it sta

referred to has returned home, safe and souud
Whether this be true or not, Gen Mcneil has
earned for hiulSelfa reputation for brutality
and barbarity, that will link his name, in al
time to come with that of Jeffres who held
