TESTIMONY OF A KENTUCKY PATRIOT

Gen. Lowell II. Rousseau, who was one OF
the first to declare for the government in the
early days of the rebellion, who opposed Ken
lucky neutrality with the same zeal with which
he fought Kentucky hostility, recently made a
speech in Louisville, of which we quote the
most striking passage. 1t may be remembered
that early last summer he enlisted a Kentucky
brigade for the Union army. who were for some
time encamped at "Camp Joe Holt" in Indiana,
opposite Louisville. Friends doubted the wis
dom of his movements--enemies were active,
and old acquantances ceased to recognize him.

EXCHANGE PAPERs.-The Vermont brigade
is as apt at a joke as in a shot at a chicken or a
stray rebel hut Gen. Smith has put veto
upon these pastimes before breakfast, and we

the big shady tree in the open plot for paper
flags of truce and the "latest news" from the
rebel capital For the soldiers this intert hange
of compliments was very well, nut ii was much
better for the rebel officials, who, no, doubt
laughed in their sleeves at the small price the,
were paying for the regular and fullest news SC
conveniently obtained from all parts of the
country.
These pastimes were carried on to a much
greater extent few weeks ago than now and

DEMOCRATIC LEADERsHIP.-The Washing
ton correspondence of the Ere. Post contains
the following:
Since the present Congress came together
here two or three men have been struggling for
the Observation-Disclosures of Illinois, VAL
landigham of Ohio. ane one or two others,
whose names will not mention. The demo-
cratic members refused to be led by Vallandig-
ham, because they distrust his loyalty. There
are many reasons why Mr.. Richardson should
not be the leader of any party in Congress
Two or three weeks since Mr.. Phelps, of Mis-
souri, took his old seat in the House. He at
once assumed the reins of power as leader of
the opposition. Valandigham and Richardson
resistetl-the former in a very determined and
willful manner. The anti-war democrats very
generally refused at first to follow Phelps, who
e a war democrat, but he has exhibited great
tact and ability, and has finally succeeded in
overcoming all opposition in the ranks of the
democrats and is now the acknowledged leader
of the opposition. He is usually fair, is ntelli-
gent, and though strong pro-slavery demo-
crat, his loyalty is without suspicion and his
honesty unquestoned. He supports the ad-
ministration so far as the prosecution of the
war is concerned, and it is great accession to
the democrats in and out of Congress,

General Orders, No. 100
First. Officers of the regular army will
as a general rule, receive leaves Of abseace

regiments, but not lower grsdes. Non
commissioned officers aud prlvates will be
discharged on receiving commissions in
volunteer regiments.
Second. The oath of allegiance will not
be administered to any person against bis
own will. It must, in all cases, be vol
nutary act on his part. Nor will any COM
pulsory parole of honor be received, but
oaths taken and paroles given to avoid ar
rest, detention, imprisonment or expulsion,
are volunteer or free acts, and cannot be
regarded as compulsory.
All persons guilty of violating such
oaths or paroles will be punished accord
ing TO the laws and usages of war.
Third. The laws of the United States and
the general laws of war authorize in GER
tain cases the seizure and conversion of
private property for the assistance of
transportation, and other uses of the army,
but this must be distinguished from pillage
The taking of property for public purposes
is very different from it's conversion to
private uses. All property lawfully taken
from the enemy or from the Inhabitants.
in an enemy's country, instantly becomes
public property, aud must be used aud ac-
counted for as such.
The SD article of war authorizes the
penalty of death for pillage or pluudering,
aud other articles authorize severe pnuish-
ment for any officer or soldier who shall sell,
embezzle or misapply or waste military
stores or who shall permit the waste or
misapplication ofRny such public property,
the penalty is the same, whether the offense
be committed in our own or in the euemy's
territory. ,E.saFs
4th. All property public or private taken

and duly accounted for if the property Ia
ken be claimed as private. Receipts must

FIFTH. When Forging parties are sent
out for provisions or other stores, the COM
mAnding officer of such party will be held
responsible for the couduct of his COM
maud, and will make true report of all
property taken.
Sixth. No officer or soldier will with
out authority leave his colors or ranks to
take private property, or enter a private
house for that purpose. All such acts are
punishable with death, and an officer who
permits them is equally as guilty as the
actual pillager.
Seventh. Commanding officers of ar
mics and corps will be held responsible for
the execution of these orders in their re-
spective commands.
Ry command of Major General Halleck,
of the army.

Young man, and is apparently just budding
into Que of tue grandest rsscals that ever

weeks ago, representing that be was a
Ouartermaster's clerk. He applied at a
wholesale liquor house and wanted to make
bill for some liquors, which he said he
thought he could dispose of to the soldiers.
AT that time he represented that he was
going into Ohio to purchase lot of horses
for his employers. he had funds for this
purpose deposited somewhere in Ohio, but
no money with him. BE wanted to know
if be could borrow twenty five dollars from
the liquor house until he returned. His
story was very plausible aud he got the
money. He went away and nothing was
seen of him for about two weeks, at the
end of which timehe again appeared in the
liquor store and enquired if the proprietor
had received the twenty-five dollars. He
had sent the money by Captain Somebody
and was astouished that it had not been
received. He went away again in some
what of hurry, apparently With the inten.
ton of making some inquiry about the lost
money and nothing more was seen of him
until yesterday, when he was found, after
somewh.: protracted search, quietly re-
clining upon sofa at the public house of
Isaac Packer. He was taken before Aid
Dnlty, where it was made to appear that he
had been stopping at all the hotels in town
and had gone from one to another without
paying a single bill. He 'bilched" the
Mcclure House, the New Home. the Monroe
House, the Virginia House, and nobody
knows how many more. He was sent to
