Island No 10.

II appears that the report OF the capture OF
Island No. 10 is true. Commodore Foote, in
his official dispatch, claims to have captured
with it, 10 heavy cannon, about 1, o prisoners,
and vast amount Of army stores The Rich
mond Dispatch Of 10th inst, has the following
in relation to this humiliating surrender:
"isLASp No. 10 The circum,tances con.
necied with the surrender OF this position,

WHAT DOES III MEAN.

There have been two publications of the
Marshall County Republican since the
Rev. A. Fuller fought the battle of Honest
Corner, and yet there has been no mention
in its columns IF the encounter Why is
ii? The Republican preiends to keep is
rAadera posted on the progress Of the war.
and yet fails to notice, in BETTING terms,
or any terms at all. sanguinary encounter
in the cause Of 'phreeJom,' in whi"h one
of It's most intimate friends aud ardent al
mlrer5, boIe conspicuous and valorous
part. and spilled his blood considerable
We have never been a political friend OF
Rev, As; yet we thought the circumstan
ces demanded that even are should make n
statement in his favor. IN regard to his con
di.ion nj the time Of the engagement. We
made but brief statement. surprising the
Republican would elaborate more lengthily
In this We were disappointed. It's col
umns are az as silent on the subject as
hey are on he high taxes brought On by
he Abolition party.
The Rev A. may well say that he is
forsaken in he house Of his friends The
Republican, which has received all the
official patronage a, his disposal, now re-
fuses to say word for him. when SO many
rumors. derogatory TO his good name, are
afoat in community.
1t was currently reported that Fuller was
drunk; aud the Republican does not col
tradict it. II was said by many that he
wanted some Democrat to thrash him tha,
his party might hold him up as a martyr,
anc thus elect him To second term in the
Auditors Office; and tie Republican does
not deny it. What will the people think
of such silence? VIII they not believe
there Is truth i. the reports. if they are
passed by in silence by the Rev. A. S

as its readers would then have known that
it had fibbed.
We did not speak Unexpectedly of Mr..
Colfax. neither did we speak sneeringly
Of his liberaIiy to our suffering soldiers;
but merely made an inquiry, as we GER
,ainly had right to. concerning the sad
bodily misfortune which had befalIen the
recipient Of his favor. The Register did
not deny the truth of the statement we
made, and will not, as it knows the proof
is abundant 1t knows, as well as we DO
that Schuyler has been using the argu
ments which are known to be SO effective
when used on Belnett, of the New York
Herald. The Register need not think to
change the issue, and screen its senior cd
itor, by any amount of silly twadde
about secessionis,s, rebel sympathizers,
&c, as that game is played out some time
ago. and is resorted to only by bran bread
Aboitionists
If the Register will answer our query

not only on ourself, but on many others,
who have expressed desire to be posted
We shall doubtless have occsion to refer
to this matter again, possibly at greater
length.

Gen. Hunter. commanding the Depart
ment of tie South, has issued proclama
ton freeing all tie slaves IN the States of
South Carolina. Georgia and Florida! II
Hunter were no, an officer. high IN com
inand. his proclamation would be consid-
cred good joke. and he placed in lunatic
asylum The impossibility. the absurd
~, the unlawfulness and iustitiableness
Of such proclamation, are apparent to
the w!liuily bliad.
Hardly had this proclamation reached
the North through The medium Of the tel
egraph and The wsprpers, and before the
President had any official kuowle Ice of it.,
ill Old Abe gets himself into ship shape.
and issues his proclamation. stating that
Hunter had no authority TO issue such a
proclamation. and that it was not the in
tention of the government 10 adopt any
such policy; ani closes with backwoods
exhoitation to Adopt his emancipation pol
icy, and limiting very plainly that if they
do not abolish slavery according to his in
s,ructions. he will take the matter in hand
himself, and carry it through under the
plea of necessity.
1t was the opinion of nearly every one
who read Gen. IIanier's proclamation,
that he had shown himself the greatest
ass of his day, and was entitled TO seat
on the very apex of jackastical eminence.
And how far is the President behind him?
He eniertaias theories ust as erroneous
and impraclicable as those Hunter has At
tempted TO carry out. and has committed
numerous acts Just as violative of the con
stitution. of law. of RICH, and Justice, as
this one of hunters. And why should
he be screened from accountability and
puishment, when citizens are thrown into
prison Oh "A mere charge or suspicion not
conviction) of crime? The Americans
have been charged and Justly. too. with
toadying to foreign aristocrats; but no.
thing in that line has approached their
toadying and trucking to the Presi lent
since his induction into office
An officer of the army is arrested and
thrown into prison. without any knowledge
of the nature Of the charge against Lin;
his friends bring the matter before Com
gress. and an inquiry Is made at the War
Department; they are referred To the Pres
ident and he sends message to Congress
stating that the arrest was by his order.
and that he takes the responsibility Of il!
T"adyism here steps in aud prevents any
furlhes efforts toward aiIording the ac-
cused trial, and he is left in a dungeon
10 rot.
The President may issue proclamaions
every day. censuring those officers who
violate the Constitution and laws, but so
long as he violates them in his own per.

ing. patriotic people will have 40 more
confidence in. or respect for Linn. than any
