1t will be seen that President Lincoln
has issued Proclamation, recommending
to the People of the United States that

February inst, [next Saturday to cele-
brate the Anniversary Of the birth day Of
the Father of his Country, "by causing
to be read to them his immortal Farewell
Address" As the notice is so brief, we
take the liberty, to call, in this mornings
paper, public meeting Of the citizens Of
Rutland at the Court House the Town
Hall being pre-occupied,) that measures

alton OF the President in Rutland, and

HAs favoring the idea that Savan-
nah has been attacked, and is probably,
ere this, in cur possession, we clip the
following from the Savannah Republican
of the 18th inst. 4:
'.The enemy were quite active yester-
day in Wallis Cut and vicinity. They
seem to be collecting in considerable
force, principally in Wright's river,
which affords an Easy passage into the
Savannah. BY the aid OF giias-. al S
o'clock, P NJ, we could readily make
out nine yessels--a portion of which
seemed to be making their way towards
Savannah. At Warsaw the .. S. forces
are equally active. Quite a large force
has landed, and as messenger from
Skidaway informs us, have covered the
island with their tents. All these move
ments betoken active hostilities at a very
early day.

The CoNcERT-The Star Vocalists gave
their first Concert at the Town Hall in this
village last evening, to an audience respect.
able in character and numbers. They gave
very decided satisfaction. Brown is most
excellent delineator of great variety Of Pc
culiarities in the human family, and all Of
his descriptive pieces provoked the mirth Of
his audience to excess. There is neither
buffoonery nor overacting. He is moreover
an excellent singer.
Of Miss Marsh it is enough to say that she
fally sustained the high enconiums Of the
Press which have been bestowed upon her in
various places in the State of New York
where the Star Vocalists have been re.
Gently giving Concerts. The last Concert i.
to BE- given this evening, with an entire

The Memphis Avalanche says !;

There is but one mode of effectually
crushing the spirit of rebellion in East Ten
nessee. Let it be plainly announced that
Abolitionism has supreme rule in Washing
ton that the Federal Congress has declared
all pesroe, absolutely free that Africans,
armed with the torch Of iinceiaa;;arisa and the
assassins knife, are to become part and par.
eel Of the Northern armies, and soon we
may look for degree of unanimity Of Sc
cessionism throughout Western Virginia and
East Tennessee hitherto unknown"
This is the desperate resort of utter des-
pair. But the advancing armies of the
United States will carry with them light and
knowledge, and will undeceive the masse,
of the South who have too long been the
dupes of lying leaders.

A GRAVE CHARGE.

We confess 10 feeling of surprise that the
braggart who edits the Norfolk Day Book
should declare that the rebel defeat on Ro-
auoke Island was owing to ''criminal neg
lect" TO send reinforcements there. Not but
that achievements we're necessary, but the
charge OF terminal neglect somewhere" seems
very harsh. 1t has been the standing boast
of the Southern leaders, the editor Of the Day
Book included, that zone Southern soldier is
equal to three yankees" We are bound to
bslieve that this boast expressed their honest
belief, for the rebels are remarkable for hon
ss,y and sincerity Now, az the Day Book
says the rebels we're spprised for several
weeks OF the exact force of the Burnside Ex-
pedition, calculatin the strength OF the
force necessary to repel them, upon tho basis
of the above maxim, they sent one rebel for
every three Yankees, and some three or four
thousand more to act in case of emergency.
Having unlimited confidence in their own
valor and proves, and utter contempt for
the Yankees in respect Of these qualities, and
knowing they would have the advantage OF
fighting behind entrenchments, while our
troops must fight in swamps and boys, and
marshes, and in the open field, it would seem
to us to amount almost to an impeachment Of
the boosted Southern chivalry to have sent
1reinforcements." We fear that in the rage
Of disappointment the Day Book is doing the
Confederate Government |" and the chiv-
airy great injustice, in charging criminal
neglect" upon JEFF. Davis and his Cabinet
Does the Day Book really mean to have it
inferred that one Southern soldier is not equal
10 three "vile, polluted Yankees"2 and that
JEFF. Davis knew it? We can draw no other
reasonable inference. That is to say, It will
do we'll enough and is proper, in order to
keep the masses up to the fighting point, to
datter them with the idea that each one Of
them can whip three Yankees, but it is
criminal" for the government to carry on
the war upon sny such really false assump-
ton.
We hope the Day Book will 90 ahead with
its denunciations Of the rebel leaders. "Crimi-
nar is none too harsh word to apply to
them. Pitch into them and use them up Is
quickly - possible, an we Of the North will
help you in the COED work Poor JEFF. Davis,
denounced in the North as rebel; and de-
nounced and despised in his own dominions a.

Gen. Lane writes to his friends in Wash.
ington that be was greatly disappointed upon
his arrival in Kansas to find that his arrange
ments were all rendered null and void by the
general order issued by Gen. Hunter. He
admits that it was the understanding that he
was to be nominally under the command Of
Hunter; bat it was also understood that Hun
ter was to leave bis military department for
two or three weeks and visit Washington
Gen. Lane does not write in comp laining
mood, but is confident that the President will
set him right. That the War Department
fully agreed with Lanes military plans is
proved BY the fact that orders were received
in Kansas from Adiutant- General Thomas
for the concentration Of various bodies Of
troops at Fort Leavenworth, which were tc
compose Lanes expedition. 1t is believed
by Lanes friends that the matter will yet be
satisfactorily and amicably arranged.

EVACUATION OF BOWLING UREeN.--
Two luen who were formerly brakemen
on the Louisville and Nashville railroad,
and were impressed into the rebel service,
escaped from Bowling Green in the con-
fusion of the evacuation by the rebels,
and have arrived at Louisville. They
say that the news Of the capture of Fort
Henry was confirmed ut Bowling Green
on Sunday, last week, and that the news
staggered the rebels .like turkeys hit in
the head" They Immediately went to
work at packing and shipping the guns,
which was all done during Sunday. The
men were frightened excessively, and hast
ened to and crowded into the cars with
positive fear. A panic almost existed
among them, and the departure would
have degenegatei into a rout had the least
alarm been given.
The last OF the rebels left the place on
Monday, having removed all their goods
and property. The splendid iron railroad
bridge and turnpike bridge have been
blown up and burned. Everything in the
least valuable to onr troops has been des-
troyed, and Gen. Hindman has laid waste
the country from Cave City to Bowling
Green. The flank movements of Gems.
Thomas and Crittenden have had this
effect; but the effect has followed the
cause with too great rapidity. The fruits
of long campaign, in which mastery in
activity aud mastery strategy lave been
! most admirably displayed, have been lost
for the moment, and the rebels still hold
the weapons which, had they remained a
while longer, would have been wrested
from them. They can again rally at some
point, and the work is to be again done
over. But the right flank has fallen, the
center has been pierced, and Columbus
stands to day an isalated and untenable
position, from which the rebels will fly in
fortnight. Moreover, there is ne stopp-
| ing place for the rebels but Nashville, and
that is untenable against the federal force
collecting to move against it.

who, short time since, describing an

replied to some question about the future,
that when the storm began, the people
would hear the thunder all around the

WoNpERFUL EscAPE.---A ..r

WONDERFUL EsCAPE.--A IS reliable
gentleman" informs us that Miss Julia
Ganey in going home yesterday afternoon
on Willard street, met horse running
wild in the street. The sidewalk was so
narrow and the snow on each side SO
deep that Miss Gsney could not possibly
get out of horses way. She therefore
screamed, and seeing low place ahead
where the snow on the side of the road
was little depressed, she rushed towards
it, but in her hurry fell in the path, when
the runaway horse made a clean jump di-
rectly over her. Our informant truly re-
marks that this was g wonderful escape,
and tina. the practice Of letting horses go
loose in the public roads to watering
places, Is to say the least very danger
ous to pedestrians. > Burlington Times.

VIt is vaguely rumored that A H.
Stephens, Vice President of the Southern
Confederacy, has resigned, and favors a
return to the Union. Another equally
unreliable runner is, that Mr.. Faulkner Of
Virginia lately made speech at Martins
burgh, in which he declered the rebellion
a failure, and advised his friends to make
the best terms with Uncle Sam they could.
But very little confidence can be placed
in either of these rumors.

X. w. Emerson recently lectured in Brook

hearers some very hard truths, none the less
palatable from the fact that they are faults
which the war is swe eping from the Amerl-

learning to fold his foolish wings, and be less
like peacock; the fop in the street Is less
offensive; the public writer less ford :; the
wit less fanatical there are everywhere signs
of returning prudence and economy, and
there being less dyspepsia, the general health
is improved. In the futare of the country
