one hundred and fifty lodges of friendly

miserable crew with him, and had secur-

awaiting my arrival.
About two o'clock in the afternoon l
paid a formal visit to the camp, attended
by the members of my staff and tho CON-
manding officers of corps, with two COM
panies of infantry as an escort.
Leaving the latter on the outside Of the

constructed, in anticipation of al attack

There were some instances of stolidity
among them, but for the most part the

loathsome attentions to which they have
been subjected by their brutal captors,
were fairly overwhelmed with JOY.

ton held ct LIE Crosse, Oct. LIST, 1862.
Resolred. That we most unquivocally
denounce the efforts of secessionists to
dismember the Union and build up an
independent confederacy, as unjustiiable,
reasonable and base; and we believ g
that the citizens of loyal States who
sympathse with them, or do not join
heartily, openly and zealously in efforts
to crush these rebel movementn are alike
guilty and not entitled to confidence.
Resolved, That is the bounden duty
of the government so TO conduct the pres
ent war against treason that prompt,
decisive and permanent victory for the
Union and the Constitution may be
achieved; and to this end we believe all
the men and money, encouragement and
support which the Administration de-
sires should be generously and conf
IDENTIFY bestowed.
Resolcsd, That, although convened as
Democrats, we do not propose to revi' g
party platforms or partisan antipathies,
to indulge in ordinations or reerimina-
tons, believing, with the lamented Doug
las, that, she should be marked as no
true patriot who will not abandon all
such issues in time like ths;' but rath-
or. by our action, we would secure to
tho people of this district Representa-
tive less partisan than n patriot, whose
conservative counse!s would strengthen,
rather than weaken the ADMINISTRATORS,
its struggle with extremists or radicals
